文摘Herein,a layered chiral coordination polymer,[Cd2(D‑cam)_(2)(2,2′‑bipy)_(2)]_(n)(Cd‑CP),was synthesized using a solvothermal method with camphoric acid(D‑H_(2)cam),2,2′‑bipyridine(2,2′‑bipy)and Cd^(2+),and Tb^(3+)@Cd‑CP was in‑situ synthesized introducing Tb^(3+)ions.The fluorescence experiments revealed that compared to Cd‑CP,Tb^(3+)@Cd‑CP exhibited ultra‑high fluorescence performance.The luminescence sensing performance demonstrated that Tb^(3+)@Cd‑CP could distinguish R/S‑propylene glycol(R/S‑PG)by fluorescence responses,with fluorescence quenching constant of 5.3×10^(3)and 2.0×10^(3)L·mol^(-1)respectively and the enantioselectivity factor(α)of 2.65.Moreover,Tb^(3+)@Cd‑CP demonstrated limits of detection of 9.3 and 19.0μmol·L^(-1)for R‑PG and S‑PG,respectively,and showed good reproducibility.

文摘Biomass-derived platform molecules,such as furfural,are abundant and renewable feedstock for valuable chemical production.It is critical to synthesize highly efficient photocatalysts for selective oxidation under visible light.The Er@K-C_(3)N_(4)/UiO-66-NH_(2) catalyst was synthesized using a straight-forward hydrothermal technique,and exhibited exceptional efficiency in the photocatalytic oxidation of furfural to furoic acid.The catalyst was thoroughly characterized,confirming the effective adjustment of the band gap energy of Er@K-C_(3)N_(4)/UiO-66-NH_(2).Upon the optimized reaction conditions,the conversion rate of furfural reached 89.3%,with a corresponding yield of furoic acid at 79.8%.The primary reactive oxygen species was identified as·O_(2)^(-) from ESR spectra and scavenger tests.The incorporation of Er and K into the catalyst enhanced the photogenerated carriers transfer rate,hence increasing the separating efficiency of photogenerated electron-hole pairs.This study expands the potential applications of rare earth element doped g-C_(3)N_(4) in the photocatalytic selective oxidation of furfurans.

文摘Roof disaster has always been an important factor restricting coal mine safety production.Acidic effect can reform the rock mass structure to weaken the macroscopic strength characteristics,which is an effective way to control the hard limestone roof.In this study,the effects of various factors on the reaction characteristics and mechanical properties of limestone were analyzed.The results show that the acid with stronger hydrogen production capacity after ionization(pK_(a)<0)has more prominent damage to the mineral grains of limestone.When pKa increases from−8.00 to 15.70,uniaxial compressive strength and elastic modulus of limestone increase by 117.22%and 75.98%.The influence of acid concentration is manifested in the dissolution behavior of mineral crystals,the crystal defects caused by large-scale acid action will lead to the deterioration of limestone strength,and the strength after 15%concentration reformation can be reduced by 59.42%.The effect of acidification time on limestone has stages and is the most obvious in the initial metathesis reaction stage(within 60 min).The key to the strength damage of acidified limestone is the participation of hydrogen ions in the reaction system.Based on the analytic hierarchy process method,the influence weights of acid type,acid concentration and acidification time on strength are 24.30%,59.54% and 16.16%,respectively.The research results provide theoretical support for the acidification control of hard limestone roofs in coal mines.

文摘The corrosion behavior of the acidophilic sulfur-oxidizing microorganism(ASOM)Acidithiobacillusthiooxidans(A.thiooxidans)on mortar was investigated for changes of medium and mortar,as well as for weight lossand surface morphology of mortar specimens.Weight loss analysis showed that mortar weight was reduced by(15.1±2.2)%after 56 d.Morphological surface analysis of mortar specimens showed weakly structured fibrous substances with2−100μm in size.The pH variations of the mortar surface and medium indicated that biogenic sulfuric acid had beenproduced by A.thiooxidans.The results prove that A.thiooxidans accelerated concrete corrosion and caused concretefailure.
文摘OBJECTIVE To investigate whether aldo-keto reductases(AKRs)can act as a nitrore⁃ductase(NR)and bioactivate aristolochic acidⅠ(AA-Ⅰ)to produce AA-Ⅰ-DNA adducts.METHODS①Human-induced hepatocytes(hiHeps)and human bladder RT4 cells were used as tool cells and treated with AA-Ⅰ0,0.5,1.0 and 2μmol·L^(-1)for 24 h.Cell viability was detected using the CCK-8 method,and the half maximal inhibition concentration(IC_(50))was calculated using the CCK-8 method and the level of DNA adduct production was calculated.②hiHeps and RT4 cells were treated with AKR inhibitor luteotin(0,5,10 and 25μmol·L^(-1))+AA-Ⅰ0.2 and 1.0μmol·L^(-1)for 24 h,respectively,and the levels of DNA adducts were detected by a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometer(LC-MS/MS).③hiHeps cells were incubated with 80 nmol·L^(-1)small interfering RNAs(si-AKRs)for 48 h and treated with AA-Ⅰ1.0μmol·L^(-1)for 24 h.Real-time qualitative PCR(RT-qPCR)method was used to detect the mRNA expression of AKRs gene and LC-MS/MS technology was used to investigate the effect of specific AKR gene knockdown on DNA adduct levels.④500 nmol·L^(-1)human AKR recombinant proteins AKR1A1 and AA-Ⅰwere incubated in vitro under anaerobic conditions and the formation of AA-Ⅰ-DNA adducts was detected.RESULTS①The IC_(50)of AA-Ⅰto hiHeps and RT4 cells was 1.9 and 0.42μmol·L^(-1),respec⁃tively.The level of DNA adduct production of the two cell lines was significantly different(P<0.01).②Luteolin≥5μmol·L^(-1)significantly inhibited the production of AA-Ⅰ-DNA adducts in both cells(P<0.05),and there was a concentration-dependent effect in hiHeps cells(P<0.01,R=0.84).③In the AKR family,the knockdown of AKR1A1 gene up to 80%inhibited the generation of AA-Ⅰ-DNA adducts by 30%-40%.④The AA-Ⅰ-DNA adducts were detected in the incubation of recombinant protein AKR1A1 and AA-Ⅰunder anaerobic conditions in vitro,approximately 1 adduct per 107 nucleotides.CONCLU⁃SION AKR1A1 is involved in AA-Ⅰbioactivation,providing a reference for elucidation of the carcino⁃genic mechanism of AA-Ⅰ.

文摘Spent fuel reprocessing plays a pivotal role in achieving efficient recycling of nuclear fuel.Among thedifferent forms of failure encountered in spent fuel reprocessing,tribocorrosion stands out as a critical concern.Herein,the tribocorrosion behavior,as well as the corrosion behavior,of 304L stainless steel(SS)in high-temperatureconcentrated nitric acid was investigated.The results indicated that 304L SS formed a thin(1.54 nm)and stable passivefilm on the surface,imparting high resistance to nitric acid corrosion.Meanwhile,it was found that the synergistic effectbetween corrosion and wear accounted for a high total tribocorrosion weight loss of over 85%,implying the dominantrole of the synergistic effect in the tribocorrosion process.Furthermore,the wear of 304L SS in deionized water revealedboth abrasive and adhesive wear characterizations,whereas the tribocorrosion in nitric acid only exhibited abrasive wearfeature.Eventually,the tribocorrosion and corrosion models of 304L SS in hot concentrated nitric acid were proposedbased on the comprehensive experimental findings.

文摘Cold stress adversely affects rice growth,particularly at the early vegetative growth stage.In higher plants,nitrogen metabolism plays a central role in amino acid metabolism,plant defense mechanisms and productivity.This report investigated the effects of cold stress and supplementalγ-aminobutyric acid(GABA)under cold stress on nitrogen metabolism in rice seedlings.Cold stress resulted in a greater increase in the transformation to NH_(4)^(+)by nitrate reductase(NR)in roots,it further resulted in lower levels of NO_(3)^(-)content in roots,weakened glutamine glutamate(GOGAT/GS)pathway and elevated glutamate dehydrogenase(GDH)pathway of rice seedlings.Whereas,compared with cold stress,supplementation of GABA(2.5 mmol·L^(-1))could increase relative water content(79.43%)and biomass(34.15%)of rice seedlings.GABA could act as an amplifier of stress signal conduction/transduction to increase NR activity and promote NO_(3)^(-)assimilation in leaves.In addition,GABA elicited the Ca^(2+)signaling pathway which could promote the GDH pathway and GABA shunt,increase the activities of GS and GDH,and the expression of OsGAD2 and OsGDH family.The GABA might increase the ratio of the Glu family and avoid NH4+toxicity in order to raise the concentration of organic compounds and alleviate the harmful consequences of cold stress.Based on these observations,this study proposed that GABA mediated cold tolerance in rice seedlings by activating Ca^(2+)burst and subsequent crosstalk among Ca^(2+)signaling,GDH pathway and GABA shunt.

文摘Humic acids can promote the germination of many vegetable seeds,but the key active components remain unclear.This study utilized nutrient content,cross polarization magic angle spin ^(13)C solid magnetic resonance(CPMAS-^(13)C-NMR)and ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(UHPLC-MS)to characterize the chemical components of humic acids.Tomato seed germination index(GI)was determined with the goal of screening the key active components of humic acids.Humic acids had a significantly higher nutrient content,except for the total nitrogen(TN)and the total phosphorus(TP)contents.Humic acids had a higher content of O-CH_(3)/NCH,aromatic C-O and carbonyl C compared to weathered coal,with significantly lower anomeric C,aromatic C and O-alkyl C/alkyl C.There were 611 different compounds identified among the test materials using UHPLC-MS.Humic acids also had a significantly higher GI(158.0%and 153.1%)than weathered coal(85.5%).The organic matter(OM),TP and available potassium(AK)contents in humic acids were significantly positively correlated with GI,and available phosphorus(AP)was significantly negatively correlated.Among the carbon components,O-CH3/NCH,aromatic C-O and O-alkyl C/alkyl C were significantly positively correlated with GI,while anomeric C was significantly negatively correlated.Furthermore,among the top 10 positive and five negative correlation compounds,lipids and lipid-like molecules[armexifolin,boviquinone 4,3-methyladipic acid,lxocarpalactone A,monic acid,DG(20:1(11Z)/18:4(6Z,9Z,12Z,15Z)/0:0),and brassinolide]and organic acids and derivatives(N-acetylglutamic acid,8-hydroxy-5,6-octadienoic acid,acetyl-L-tyrosine,and hydroxyprolyl-methionine)in humic acids might be crucial active components for improving tomato seed germination.The results provided direct evidence for the identification of bioactive molecules of humic acids,and a scientific basis for the precise utilization of bioactive molecular components of humic acids in sustainable agricultural development.
