Improving a drug delivery system is critical to treat central nervous system disorders. Here we studied an innovative approach based on implantation of a wireless-powered cell-based device in mice. This device, coupling biologic material and electronics, is the first of its kind. The advantage of this technology is its ability to control the secretion of a therapeutic molecule and to switch the classical permanent delivery to activation on demand. In diseases with relapsing-remitting phases such as multiple sclerosis, such activation could be selectively achieved in relapsing phases. However, the safety (tolerance to biomaterials and surgical procedure) of such a clinical device needs to be verified. Therefore, the development of tools to assess the biocompatibility of the system in animal models is an essential step. We present the development of this new therapeutic approach, the challenges we encountered during the different steps of its development (such as cell loading in the chamber, surgery protocol for subcutaneous implantation of the device) and the tools we used to evaluate cell viability and biocompatibility of the device.Peroxidases are species-specific. Differences in peroxidase can objectively reflect the genetics among species. The use of peroxidase to assist in species identification is relatively simple and effective. In this work, we proposed a graphene-modified electrode. This electrode can amplify the signal of electrocatalytic reduction of hydrogen peroxide. Since peroxidase can catalyze the reduction of hydrogen peroxide, this signal can be used as an indicator to demonstrate the content of peroxidase in different plant tissues. Twelve herbal medicines were selected for our study. The results show that this electrochemical-based detection technique was comparable to colorimetric method in terms of accuracy.Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) and related extended organic materials have been widely used as photocatalysts in the last few years. Such interest arises from the wide range of covalent linkages employed in their construction, which offer many possibilities to design extended frameworks and to link photoactive building blocks. Thus, the potential utility of predesigned organic photoactive fragments can be synergistically added to the inherent advantages of heterogeneous catalysis, such as recyclability and easy separation of catalyst. In this overview, the current state of the art on the design of organic materials for photocatalytic oxidation reactions will be presented. The designing process of these materials is usually conditioned by the generally accepted concept that crystallinity and porosity defines the quality of the heterogeneous catalysts obtained. The care for the structural integrity of materials obtained is understandable because many properties and applications are intimately related to these features. However, the catalytic activity does not always directly depends on these characteristics. A critical compilation of the available literature is performed in order to offer a general perspective of the use of COFs and Covalent Triazine Frameworks (CTFs) in photocatalytic oxidation processes, including water oxidation, which constitute an important outcome relevant to artificial photosynthesis.Phototherapies, in the form of photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT), are very promising treatment modalities for cancer since they provide locality and turn-on mechanism for toxicity, both of which are critical in reducing off-site toxicity. Irradiation of photosensitive agents demonstrated successful therapeutic outcomes; however, each approach has its limitations and needs to be improved for clinical success. The combination of PTT and PDT may work in a synergistic way to overcome the limitations of each method and indeed improve the treatment efficacy. The development of single photosensitive agents capable of inducing both PDT and PTT is, therefore, extremely advantageous and highly desired. Cyanine dyes are shown to have such potential, hence have been very popular in the recent years. Luminescence of cyanine dyes renders them as phototheranostic molecules, reporting the localization of the photosensitive agent prior to irradiation to induce phototoxicity, hence allowing image-guided phototherapy. In this review, we mainly focus on the cyanine dye-based phototherapy of different cancer cells, concentrating on the advancements achieved in the last ten years.Fresh two-dimensional molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) absorbs the hydrocarbon contaminations in the ambient air and makes surface aging. To understand how the surface aging influences the interactions between MoS2 and biomolecules is important in the biomedical applications. Here, employing all-atom molecular dynamics simulations, we investigated the interactions of the fresh and aged MoS2 nanosheets with the lipid membranes of different components. Our results demonstrate that both the fresh and aged MoS2 nanosheets can spontaneously insert into the bilayer membranes. However, the fresh MoS2 nanosheet displays significantly stronger interaction and then has a larger penetration depth than the aged counterpart, regardless of the lipid components. The calculations of potential mean forces through the umbrella sampling further confirm that the insertion of fresh MoS2 into the lipid membranes is more energetically favorable. Moreover, we found that the fresh MoS2 nanosheet can cause a larger damage to the integrity of lipid membranes than the aged one. This work provides insightful understandings of the surface-aging-dependent interactions of the MoS2 nanosheets with biomembranes, which could facilitate the design of novel MoS2-based nanodevices with advanced surface properties.Laterite ore is one of the important sources of nickel (Ni). However, it is difficult to liberate Ni from ore structure during reduction roasting. MELK-8a This paper provided an effective way for a robust recovery of Ni from laterite ore by H2 reduction using sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O3) as a promoter. . It was found that a Ni content of 9.97% and a Ni recovery of 99.24% were achieved with 20 wt% Na2S2O3 at 1,100°C. The promoting mechanism of Na2S2O3 in laterite ore reduction by H2 was also investigated. The thermogravimetric results suggested the formation of Na2Mg2SiO7, Na2SO3, Na2SO4, and S during the pyrolysis of laterite with Na2S2O3, among which the alkali metal salts could destroy the structures of nickel-bearing silicate minerals and hence release Ni, while S could participate in the formation of the low-melting-point eutectic phase of FeS-Fe. The formation of low-melting-point phases were further verified by the morphology analysis, which could improve the aggregation of Ni-Fe particles due to the capillary forces of FeS-Fe as well as the enhanced element migration by the liquid phase of sodium silicates during reduction.
