DNAzymes have shown great promise as a general platform for detecting metal ions, many metal-specific can be obtained using in vitro selection. While DNAzyme-based sensors found applications the extracellular environment, no intracellular application of DNAzyme has yet been reported. Here, we demonstrate novel type ion sensor detection. The probe consists 13 nm gold nanoparticle (AuNP) core functionalized with shell consisting uranyl-specific 39E whose enzyme strand contains thiol at 3' end...
Significance Monovalent ions, such as Na + , play important roles in biology, yet few sensors that image intracellular have been reported. Although deoxyribozymes (DNAzymes) shown to be a promising platform for detection of metal most reported DNAzymes require multivalent ions catalytic activity. Existing monovalent ion-responsive poor selectivity low rate, and high ion concentrations function. Here, we report vitro selection the first (to our knowledge) highly selective, sensitive,...
Lanthanide-doped up-conversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) have shown promise in biomedical applications. However, as the UCNPs are normally capped with hydrophobic ligands, it remains challenging to prepare biocompatible specific molecular recognition capabilities. We herein report an exceptionally simple strategy uniform DNA-modified versatile bioprobes. The approach can directly convert as-prepared into water-soluble DNA-UCNPs without any chemical modification of or oligonucleotides....
One-pot extraction combined with the metal-free photochemical aerobic oxidative deep-desulfurization of fuels in deep eutectic solvents was successfully achieved.
Hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets (h-BNNs) with rather high specific surface area (SSA) are important two-dimensional layer-structured materials. Here, a solvent-mediated synthesis of h-BNNs revealed template-free lattice plane control strategy that induced SSA nanoporous structured outstanding aerobic oxidative desulfurization performance.
Abstract Taming interfacial electronic effects on Pt nanoparticles modulated by their concomitants has emerged as an intriguing approach to optimize catalytic performance. Here, we report assembled vacancy-abundant hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets and use a model catalyst embrace effect induced the with N-vacancies B-vacancies for superior CO oxidation catalysis. Experimental results indicate that strong interaction exists between vacancies. Bader charge analysis shows B-vacancies, serve...
Abstract DNAzymes, which are sequences of DNA with catalytic activity, have been demonstrated as a potential platform for sensing wide range metal ions. Despite their significant promise, cellular using DNAzymes has however difficult, mainly because the “always‐on” mode first‐generation DNAzyme sensors. To overcome this limitation, photoactivatable (or photocaged) was designed and synthesized, its application in Zn II living cells demonstrated. In design, adenosine ribonucleotide at scissile...
In this work, formic acid and its derived DESs are employed to engineer a tandem leaching system for the selective recovery of Li Co/Mn valuable metals from spent LIBs.

Porous Ionic Liquids (PILs) have gained attention but facing challenges in catalysis, especially liquid-liquid two-phase reactions due to limited catalytic sites and hydrophilicity control. This work engineered a Type III PILs (PILS-M) using zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) confined phosphomolybdic acid (HPMo) as the microporous framework N-butyl pyridine bis(trifluoromethane sulfonyl) imide ionic liquid ([Bpy][NTf
Metal-free graphene-like boron nitride (BN) samples were prepared and applied as adsorbents for removing dibenzothiophene (DBT) in model oil.
Graphene-analogue hexagonal boron nitride (G-h-BN), as a novel few-layer material, was prepared and used support to coat with tungsten-based ionic liquid (IL) in oxidative desulfurization. Designed G-h-BN supported IL (IL/G-h-BN) heterogeneous catalyst characterized by atomic force microscopy, scanning electron energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, transmission diffraction, Raman photoelectron spectroscopy. This material strategy makes the usage amount of reduce remarkably, which not only...
Electronic properties of boron nitride nanosheets were tamed by doping carbon atoms into the matrix for boosted aerobic catalytic performance.
Novel carbon-doped porous boron nitride has been successfully prepared by using [Bmim]BF<sub>4</sub>as a soft template and the carbon source. The metal-free C-BN displayed one of highest adsorption capacities for dibenzothiophene reported up to now.
Abstract Engineering strong metal–support interactions (SMSI) is an effective strategy for tuning structures and performances of supported metal catalysts but induces poor exposure active sites. Here, we demonstrate a interaction via reverse route (SMSIR) by starting from the final morphology SMSI (fully-encapsulated core–shell structure) to obtain intermediate state with desirable Using nanoparticles (NPs) as building block, Pd–FeO x NPs are transformed into porous yolk–shell structure...
