ANF/rHGO/PANI aerogel films prepared by freeze-drying are assembled into flexible solid-state symmetric supercapacitors and deliver a favorable specific capacitance of 200 F g-1, a desirable capacitance retention of 98.9% after 2500 mechanical bending cycles and an approximately 100% capacitance retention even after keeping tensile force for 15 h. The as-prepared hydrogels, aerogels and derived films with such excellent performances are promising for applications in oil pollution removal, optical filters and flexible load-bearing energy storage devices.Tyrosine sulfation is an important post-translational modification of peptides and proteins which underpins and modulates many protein-protein interactions. In order to overcome the inherent instability of the native modification, we report the synthesis of two sulfonate analogues and their incorporation into two thrombin-inhibiting sulfopeptides. The effective mimicry of these sulfonate analogues for native sulfotyrosine was validated in the context of their thrombin inhibitory activity and binding mode, as determined by X-ray crystallography.Correction for 'Ultrafast vibrational wave packet dynamics of the aqueous tyrosyl radical anion induced by photodetachment' by Muhammad Shafiq Bin Mohd Yusof et al., Phys.

The panel consisted of sessions on the design of MOFs and MOF hybrids (synthetic chemistry), their applications (e.g., capture, storage, separation, electrical devices, photocatalysis), advanced characterization (e.g., transmission electron microscopy, solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance), theory and modeling, and commercialization. MOF chemistry is undergoing a significant evolution from simply network chemistry to the chemistry of synergistic integration with heterogeneous materials involving other disciplines (we call this the fourth generation type). As reflected in the papers of the invited speakers and discussions with the participants, the present and future of this field will be described in detail.The reaction mechanism for the photocatalytic reduction of CO2 to CO catalyzed by the [Re(en)(CO)3Cl] complex in the presence of triethanolamine, R3N (R = CH2CH2OH) abbreviated as TEOA, in DMF solution was studied in-depth with the aid of DFT computational protocols by calculating the geometric and free energy reaction profiles for several possible reaction pathways. The reaction pathways studied start with the "real" catalytic species [Re(en)(CO)3], [Re(en)(CO)3]- and/or [Re(en)(CO)2Cl]- generated from the excited triplet T1 state upon single and double reductive quenching by a TEOA sacrificial electron donor or photodissociation of a CO ligand. The first step in all the catalytic cycles investigated involves the capture of either CO2 or the oxidized R2NCH2CH2O˙ radical. In the latter case, the CO2 molecule is captured (inserted) by the Re-OCH2CH2NR2 bond forming stable intermediates. Next, successive protonations (TEOA also acts as a proton donor) lead to the release of CO either from the energy consuming 2e- reduction of [Re(en)(CO)4]+ or [Re(en)(CO)2Cl]+ complexes in the CO2 capture pathways or from the released unstable diprotonated [R2NCH2CH2OC(OH)(OH)]+ species regenerating TEOA and the catalyst. The CO2 insertion reaction pathway is the favorable pathway for the photocatalytic reduction of CO2 → CO catalyzed by the [Re(en)(CO)3Cl] complex in the presence of TEOA manifesting its crucial role as an electron and proton donor, capturing CO2 and releasing CO.Here, we report an ultra-long-acting drug release nano-formulation based on porous silicon nanoparticles (pSiNPs) that are prepared by thermally induced silane dehydrocoupling and lipid-coating. This robust formulation offers the ability to release an anticancer drug, for up to 2 weeks, in various biological environments; pH 7.4 buffer, cancer cells, and tumor xenograft model.Molecular self-assembly is a ubiquitous phenomenon in which individual atoms or molecules set up an ordered structure. It is of high interest for understanding the biology and a variety of diseases at the molecular level. In this work, we studied the self-assembly of tyrosine molecules via extensive molecular dynamics simulations. The formation of structures by self-assembly was systematically studied at various concentrations, from very low to very high. The temperature was kept constant, at which, in our former studies, we have already observed well-formed self-assembled structures. Depending on the concentration, the system displays a wide range of different structures, ranging from freely scattered monomers to very well formed four-fold structures. Different regimes of concentration dependence are observed. The results are proved by calculating the moments of inertia of the structures and the number of hydrogen bonds formed. Free energy landscapes calculated for the number of hydrogen bonds versus the number of contacts within a criterion provide insights into the structures observed.A single-head/single-tail surfactant with a polymerizable group at each end is presented as a new simplified motif for intrinsically cross-linkable, gyroid-phase lyotropic mesogens. The resulting nanoporous polymer networks exhibit excellent structural stability in various solvents and are capable of molecular size discrimination.Owing to the market competitiveness and urgent societal need, an optimum speed of drug discovery is an important criterion for successful implementation. Despite the rapid ascent of artificial intelligence and computational and bioanalytical techniques to accelerate drug discovery in big pharma, organic synthesis of privileged scaffolds predicted in silico for in vitro and in vivo studies is still considered as the rate-limiting step. C-H activation is the latest technology added into an organic chemist's toolbox for the rapid construction and late-stage modification of functional molecules to achieve the desired chemical and physical properties. Particularly, elimination of prefunctionalization steps, exceptional functional group tolerance, complexity-to-diversity oriented synthesis, and late-stage functionalization of privileged medicinal scaffolds expand the chemical space. It has immense potential for the rapid synthesis of a library of molecules, structural modification to achieve the required pharmacoloerapeutics and biologics; fluorescent labelling and radiolabelling for bioimaging; bioconjugation for chemical biology studies; drug-metabolite synthesis for biodistribution and excretion studies; late-stage diversification of drug-molecules to increase efficacy and safety; cutting-edge DNA encoded library synthesis and improved synthesis of drug molecules via C-H activation in medicinal chemistry and drug discovery.This paper reports antimicrobial metallopolymers containing biodegradable polycaprolactone as the backbone with boronic acid and cobaltocenium as the side chain. While boronic acid promotes interactions with bacterial cells via boronolectin with lipopolysaccharides, cationic cobaltocenium facilitates the unique complexation with anionic β-lactam antibiotics. The synergistic interactions in these metallopolymer-antibiotic bioconjugates were evidenced by re-sensitized efficacy of penicillin-G against four different Gram-negative bacteria (E. coli, P. vulgaris, P. aeruginosa and K. pneumoniae). The degradability of the polyester backbone was validated through tests under physiological pH (7.4) and acidic pH (5.5) or under enzymatic conditions. These metallopolymers exhibited time-dependent uptake and reduction of cobalt metals in different organs of mice via in vivo absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) tests.Inorganic selenium, the most common form of harmful selenium in the environment, can be determined using electrochemical sensors, which are compact, fast, reliable and easy-to-operate devices. Despite progress in this area, there is still significant room for developing high-performance selenium electrochemical sensors. To achieve this, one should take into account (i) the electrochemical process that selenium undergoes on the electrode; (ii) the valence state of selenium species in the sample and (iii) modification of the sensor surface by a material with high affinity to selenium. The goal of this review is to provide a knowledge base for these issues. After the Introduction section, mechanisms and principles of the electrochemical reduction of selenium are introduced, followed by a section introducing the modification of electrodes with materials interacting with selenium and a section dedicated to speciation methods, including the reduction of non-detectable Se(VI) to detectable Se(IV). In the following sections, the main types of materials (metallic, polymers, hybrid (nano)materials…) interacting with inorganic selenium (mostly absorbents) are reviewed to show the diversity of properties that may be endowed to sensors if the materials were to be used for the modification of electrodes. These features for the main material categories are outlined in the conclusion section, where it is stated that the engineered polymers may be the most promising modifiers.We report an exceptional example of Tb(III) luminescence switching using a reversible covalent bond. The antenna and quencher moieties attached to a ligand of a Tb(III) complex undergo acid/base-driven exchange based on the reversible formation of a hemiaminal ether structure to achieve on-off regulation of luminescence.
The aim of the study was to assess the correct insertion of earplugs in the ear canal by people with different knowledge regarding this matter. The use of hearing protectors leads to a reduction in the risk of hearing loss, which is part of environmental engineering.

Measurements of sound attenuation by earplugs were carried out with the participation of 21 people with no experience in the use of earplugs. The measurements were repeated until the subjects had read the instructions for the use of earplugs, and then after the subjects had been trained in the correct insertion of earplugs in the ear canal. The tests were carried out using a newly developed portable device for quick measurements of sound attenuation.

Familiarizing the subjects with the instructions for use resulted in a sound attenuation value being 6.7 and 3.3 dB higher, at 250 and 4000 Hz, respectively, compared to the measurement when the subjects inserted earplugs in the ear canal without any guidance. An even greater increase in attenuation was observed when the subjects were trained to insert earplugs, at 9.2 dB (250 Hz) and 5.4 dB (4000 Hz), respectively. In most cases, the changes in attenuation as a result of providing guidance were statistically significant.

Persons who have no experience in using earplugs have significant problems with their correct insertion. Reading the instructions for use does not guarantee that earplugs will be inserted correctly. Only the training showing how to insert the earplugs correctly results in people being able to do it correctly in most cases. Med Pr. 2021;72(5).
