A molecular cobaloxime cocatalyst and ultrathin FeOOH nanolayers co-modifiedBiVO_(4) photoanode for efficient photoelectrochemical water oxidation

BiVO_(4) has been attracting a lot of interest in photoelectrochemical (PEC) water oxidation due to its efficient solar absorption and appropriate band positions.So far,sluggish water oxidation kinetics and fast photogenerated charge recombination still hinder the PEC performance ofBiVO_(4) .In this study,a novel PEC photoanode was designed by depositing ultrathin FeOOH nanolayers on the surface of nanoporousBiVO_(4) electrode,followed by modification with a cobaloxime (Co(dmgH)_(2)(4-COOH-py)Cl) molecular cocatalyst.Under irradiation of a 100 mW cm^(-2)(AM 1.5G) Xe lamp,the photocurrent density of the cobaloxime/FeOOH/BiVO_(4) composite photoanode reached 5.1 mA cm^(-2)at 1.23 V vs.RHE in 1.0 M potassium borate buffer solution (pH=9.0).The onset potential of the optimal cobaloxime/FeOOH/BiVO_(4) photoanode exhibited a 460 m V cathodic shift relative to bareBiVO_(4) .In addition,the surface charge injection efficiency of the composite photoanode reached~80%at 1.23 V vs.RHE and the incident photon-to-current efficiency (IPCE) reached~88%at 420 nm.

Self-supported Ni2P nanosheets on low-cost three-dimensional Fe foam as a novel electrocatalyst for efficient water oxidation

Electrochemical water splitting into hydrogen and oxygen is a promising strategy for future renewable energy conversion devices.The oxygen evolution reaction(OER)is considered as the bottleneck reaction in an overall water splitting system because it involves 4e- and 4H+ transfer processes.Currently,it is highly desirable to explore low-cost alternative catalysts for OER at ambient conditions.Herein,we report for the first time that nickel phosphide(Ni2P)nanosheets can be facilely grown on Fe foam(FF)as an efficient electrocatalyst for OER with excellent durability and catalytic activity under alkaline conditions.To reach a current density of 10 m A/cm2,the Ni2P-FF catalyst required a low overpotential of only 198 mV for OER.The catalyst’s high OER activity and durability were well maintained at a high current density.The required overpotentials were only 267 and 313 mV to achieve the current densities of 100 and 300 m A/cm2,respectively.The combination of low-cost Fe foam with Ni2P provides a promising low-cost catalyst for large-scale application of electrocatalytic water splitting.

Sirolimus combined with oseltamivir and corticosteroid treatment for a puerpera with severe pneumonia caused by 2009 pandemic H1N1:A case report

Severe pneumonia in patients infected with the 2009 pandemic H1N1(pH1N1)virus was partially attributed to excessive immune response.Anti-virus treatment for these patients was insufficient.Here we reported the therapy effect of sirolimus,an immunosuppressor,combined with oseltamivir and corticosteroid for a puerpera with severe pneumonia caused by pH1N1 virus.This patient has infected with the pH1N1 virus in late pregnancy,and antiviral therapy was not implemented timely.She developed severe pneumonia and ARDS rapidly and need receive a cesarean section on the 39th week after pregnancy.After giving birth to a healthy baby,she received a combination of oseltamivir,sirolimus and corticosteroid,and improved in the following days.Moreover,the cytokines in serum and viral loads in BALF decreased significantly.She recovered without infectious symptoms and was discharged.Sirolimus combined with oseltamivir and corticosteroid is likely responsible for lowering the viral loads,reducing the patient's cytokine level,and further improving her clinical outcomes.It provides evidence that adjuvant treatment was beneficial to patients with severe pneumonia induced by the pH1N1 virus.
