In this work, we synthesized an independent bi-reversible reaction sensor BPC for simultaneously detecting cysteine (Cys) and sulfur dioxide (SO2), showing multi-fluorescence signal modes due to the regulable FRET efficiency, and finally achieving real-time process visualization of Cys metabolizing into SO2 in subcellular organelles and tumors.Electric fields (EFs) in biological systems are well known, and their presence implies the activity of protein ion channels and pumps in various cells. The aggregation of islet amyloid polypeptides (IAPP) was recently found in human brain tissue, and this was related to the electrical activity of neurons and caused neuronal loss. However, the association between amyloid formation and the electric field is still unknown. Herein a direct method to stimulate the formation of the hIAPP peptide under an EF is reported.Heme enzymes are capable of catalytically oxidising organic substrates using peroxide via the formation of a high-valent intermediate. Iron porphyrins with three different axial ligands are created on self-assembled monolayer-modified gold electrodes, which can oxidize C-H bonds and epoxidize alkenes efficiently. The kinetic isotope effects suggest that the hydrogen atom transfer reaction by a highly reactive oxidant is likely to be the rate-determining step. Effect of different axial ligands and different secondary structures of the iron porphyrin confirms that the thiolate axial ligand with a hydrophobic distal pocket is the most efficient for this oxidation chemistry.Physicians diagnose subjectively the etiology of inaccessible infections where sampling is not feasible (such as, pneumonia, sinusitis, cholecystitis, peritonitis), as bacterial or viral. The diagnosis is based on their experience with some medical markers like blood counts and medical symptoms since it is harder to obtain swabs and reliable laboratory results for most cases. In this study, infrared spectroscopy with machine learning algorithms was used for the rapid and objective diagnosis of the etiology of inaccessible infections and enables an assessment of the error for the subjective diagnosis of the etiology of these infections by physicians. Our approach allows for diagnoses of the etiology of both accessible and inaccessible infections as based on an analysis of the innate immune system response through infrared spectroscopy measurements of white blood cell (WBC) samples. In the present study, we examined 343 individuals involving 113 controls, 89 inaccessible bacterial infections, 54 accessible bacterial infections, 60 inaccessible viral infections, and 27 accessible viral infections. Using our approach, the results show that it is possible to differentiate between controls and infections (combined bacterial and viral) with 95% accuracy, and enabling the diagnosis of the etiology of accessible infections as bacterial or viral with >94% sensitivity and > 90% specificity within one hour after the collection of the blood sample with error rate 23%.Rechargeable Mg batteries are thought to be suitable for scalable energy-storage applications because of their high safety and low cost. However, the bivalent Mg2+ cations suffer from sluggish solid-state diffusion kinetics. Herein, a hollow morphological approach is introduced to design copper selenide cathodes for rechargeable Mg batteries. Hollow Cu2-xSe nanocubes are fabricated via a solution reaction and their Mg-storage properties are investigated in comparison to simple nanoparticles. The hollow structures accommodate the volume change during magnesiation/demagnesiation and maintain material integrity, and thus a remarkable cycling stability of over 200 cycles is achieved. A kinetic study demonstrates that a hollow structure favors solid-phase Mg2+ diffusion, and therefore the hollow Cu2-xSe nanocubes exhibit a high capacity of 250 mA h g-1 at 100 mA g-1 as well as a superior rate capability. Mechanism investigation indicates that Cu2-xSe experiences a structure conversion during which a phase transformation occurs.

The careful alignment and selection of substituents give rise to highly twisted pyrene-fused azaacenes. A combined global and local theoretical analysis shows how the strain is generated and dispersed across the aromatic backbone. Furthermore, simulation of the observed optoelectronic properties shines light on the structural factors that govern the properties of twisted pyrene-fused azaacenes.Pharmaceuticals, personal care products, synthetic hormones, and industrial manufacturing additives are used worldwide, and their residues are frequently detected in wastewater. In this study, a sensitive and selective method was developed and validated for the detection and quantification of 14 Emerging Contaminants (ECs) with various physico-chemical properties frequently found in wastewater. Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) allowed for extraction and concentration of the compounds. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry in both positive and negative electrospray ionization mode was used for the analysis. Three different combinations of mobile phase, water + 0.1% formic acid acetonitrile + 0.1% formic acid (3 compounds), water + 0.1% formic acid methanol (5) and 10 mM ammonium acetate buffer acetonitrile + 0.1% formic acid (6) gave the best chromatographic conditions to analyze the contaminants in real wastewater samples. Four different eluents at acidic and basic sample pH values were tested to optimize the SPE methodology, and three different dilution ratios (1 1, 2 1, and 5 1) were tested to reduce the matrix effect. Data validation was conducted using linearity, intra and inter-day repeatability, LOD/LOQ, percentage recovery, and percentage process efficiency studies. As a case study, a biological nutrient removal (BNR) based plant was tested for the presence of ECs using the developed method. Removal efficiency at different treatment stages was assessed. Most of the treatment occurred at the secondary treatment stage, whereas primary treatment and disinfection had little effect on removal. All the contaminants were found in the inlet wastewater. Estrone (E1), an endocrine disrupting compound, was reported for the first time in Indian wastewater at 376.2 ng L-1. Seven, four, and two ECs were removed at high, medium, and low efficiencies, respectively. Carbamazepine showed negative removal. This study enhanced our understanding of the occurrence and fate of several ECs in BNR based treatment systems.
