An efficient strategy for the preparation of MIL-53(Al)-NH_(2)membranes with high ion selectivity and desalination performance

The efficient extraction of sodium(Na^(+))and lithium(Li^(+))from seawater and salt lakes is increasingly demanding due to their great application value in chemical industries.However,coexisting cations such as divalent calcium(Ca^(2+))and magnesium(Mg^(2+))ions are at the subnanometer scale in diameter,similar to target monovalent ions,making ion separation a great challenge.Here,we propose a simple and fast secondary growth method for the preparation of MIL-53(Al)-NH_(2)membranes on the surface of anodic aluminum oxide.Such membranes contain angstrom-scale(~7Å)channels for the entrance of small monovalent ions and water molecules,endowing the selectivities for monovalent cations over divalent cations and water over salt molecules.The resulting high-connectivity MIL-53(Al)-NH_(2)membranes exhibit excellent ion separation performance(a selectivity of 121.42 for Na^(+)/Ca^(2+)and 93.81 for Li^(+)/Mg^(2+))and desalination performance(a water/salt selectivity of up to 5196).This work highlights metal–organic framework membranes as potential candidates for realizing ion separation and desalination in liquid treatment.

Involvement of ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK in up-regulation of 14-3-3 protein induced by hydrogen peroxide preconditioning in PC12 cells

Objective To investigate the protective effects of hydrogen peroxide preconditioning （HPP） on the pheochromocytoma （PC12） cells treated with 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium （MPP^＋） and to explore the potential mechanisms. Methods The viability and apoptosis of PC 12 cells were determinded by 3-（4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl）-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide （MTT） assay and 4′,6′-diamidino-2-phenylindole （DAPI） staining, respectively. The expressions of 14-3-3 protein and phospholylated p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK） were determined by Western blot. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to measure the activity of extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase 1/2 （ERK1/2）. Results The cell viability decreased and the number of apoptotic cells increased dramatically in MPP^＋ group compared with that in Control group. HPP induced a significant increase in cell viability and a marked decrease in population of apoptotic cells of the MPP^＋- treated PC 12 cells, accompanied with up-regulation of 14-3-3 protein and increase of ERK 1/2 and p38 MAPK activities. The 14-3-3 protein expression was positively correlated with the phosphorylation of ERK1/2. Furthermore, inhibition of the ERK1/2 with PD98059 abolished the 14-3-3 protein up-regulation in PC 12 cells induced by HPP. Conclusion HPP protects PC 12 cells against MPP＋ toxicity by up-regulating 14-3-3 protein expression through the ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK signaling pathways.

Effect of CuO and SnO_(2) particle size on hot extrusion deformation of AgCuOSnO_(2):Finite element simulation and experimental study

The finite element model is established according to the experimental results,and then the experimental results are verified by simulation calculation.In terms of the combination of finite element analysis and experiment,the effect of particle size of CuO and SnO_(2) on the stress,strain and microstructure of AgCuOSnO_(2) composite during hot extrusion was studied.The results illustrate that with the decrease of particle size,the dispersion of the second phase increases gradually,while the possibility of“tail shrinkage”of the billet decreases continuously;cubic CuO will evolve to fibrosis,and the degree of fibrosis will increase with the decrease of the particle size and ring clusters.Specifically,the degree of fibrosis at the middle end of the billet is higher than that at the front end,the degree of fibrosis at the front end is higher than that at the back end,and the degree of fibrosis on the surface is higher than that in the core;part of CuO fibers will bend,and the degree of buckling strength is positively correlated with the size of particles and their annular clusters.Additionally,there is fiber CuO in the front and back end of the billet that are inconsistent with the extrusion direction,and the degree of difference was negatively correlated with the particle size.

Gastric digestion of pea ferritin and modulation of its iron bioavailability by ascorbic and phytic acids in caco-2 cells

AIM： To understand the digestive stability and mechanism of release and intestinal uptake of pea ferritin iron in caco-2 cell line model.METHODS： Pea seed ferritin was purified using salt fractionation followed by gel filtration chromatography.The bioavailability of ferritin iron was assessed using coupled in vitro digestion/Caco-2 cell model in the presence or absence of ascorbic acid and phytic acid.Caco-2 cell ferritin formation was used as a surrogate marker of iron uptake. Structural changes of pea ferritin under simulated gastric pH were characterized using electrophoresis, gel filtration and circular dichroism spectroscopy.RESULTS： The caco-2 cell ferritin formation was significantly increased （P 〈 0.001） with FeSO4 （19.3±9.8 ng/mg protein） and pea ferritin （13.9 ± 6.19 ng/mg protein） compared to the blank digest （3.7 ± 1.8 ng/mg protein）. Ascorbic acid enhanced while phytic acid decreased the pea ferritin iron bioavailability. However,either in the presence or absence of ascorbic acid, the ferritin content of caco-2 cells was significantly less with pea ferritin than with FeSO4. At gastric pH, no band corresponding to ferritin was observed in the presence of pepsin either on native PAGE or SDS-PAGE. Gel filtration chromatography and circular dichroism spectroscopy revealed a pH dependent loss of quaternary and secondary structure.CONCLUSION： Under gastric conditions, the iron core of pea ferritin is released into the digestive medium due to acid induced structural alterations and dissociation of protein. The released iron interacts with dietary factors leading to modulation of pea ferritin iron bioavailability,resembling the typical characteristics of non-heme iron.

Detection of Tetracycline Antibiotics in Water by Dispersive Micro-solid Phase Extraction using Fe_(3)O_(4)@[Cu_(3)(btc)_(2)]Magnetic Composite Combined with Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry

Residues of tetracycline antibiotics(TCs) in environments may be harmful to human.Due to their high polarities,it is extremely challenging to efficiently enrich TCs with low concentrations in natural waters for analysis.In this work,a magnetic metal-organic framework Fe_(3)O_(4)@[Cu_(3)(btc)_(2)]was synthesized and applied as a dispersive micro-solid phase extraction adsorbent for TCs enrichment.Effects of dispersive micro-solid phase extraction conditions including extraction time,solution p H,and elution solvent on the extraction efficiencies of TCs were investigated.Results show that TCs could be enriched efficiently by Fe_(3)O_(4)@[Cu_(3)(btc)_(2)],and electrostatic interaction between TCs and Fe_(3)O_(4)@[Cu_(3)(btc)_(2)]dominated this process.Combined with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry,four TCs residues (oxytetracycline,tetracycline,chlortetracycline,and doxycycline) in natural waters were determined.The detection limits (LOD,S/N=3) of the four antibiotics were 0.01-0.02μg/L,and the limits of quantitation (LOQ,S/N=10)were 0.04-0.07μg/L.The recoveries obtained from river water and aquaculture water spiked with three TCs concentration levels ranged from 70.3%to 96.5%with relative standard deviations of 3.8%-12.8%.Results indicate that the magnetic metal-organic framework based dispersive micro-solid phase extraction is simple,rapid and high-loading for antibiotics enrichment from water,which further expand the practical application of metal-organic frameworks in sample pretreatment for environmental pollutant analysis.

Palmitate induces fat accumulation by activating C/EBPβ-mediated G0S2 expression in HepG2 cells

AIM To determine the role of G0/G1 switch gene 2(G0 S2) and its transcriptional regulation in palmitate-induced hepatic lipid accumulation.METHODS Hep G2 cells were treated with palmitate,or palmitate in combination with CCAAT/enhancer binding protein(C/EBP)β si RNA or G0 S2 si RNA. The m RNA expression of C/EBPβ,peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor(PPAR)γ and PPARγ target genes(G0 S2,GPR81,GPR109 A and Adipoq) was examined by q PCR. The protein expression of C/EBPβ,PPARγ,and G0 S2 was determined by Western blotting. Lipid accumulation was detected with Oil Red O staining and quantified by absorbance value of the extracted Oil Red O dye. Lipolysis was evaluated by measuring the amount of glycerol released into the medium. RESULTS Palmitate caused a dose-dependent increase in lipid accumulation and a dose-dependent decrease in lipolysis in Hep G2 cells. In addition,palmitate increased the m RNA expression of C/EBPβ,PPARγ,and PPARγ target genes(G0 S2,GPR81,GPR109 A,and Adipoq) and the protein expression of C/EBPβ,PPARγ,and G0 S2 in a dose-dependent manner. Knockdown of C/EBPβ decreased palmitate-induced PPARγ and its target genes(G0 S2,GPR81,GPR109 A,and Adipoq) m RNA expression and palmitate-induced PPARγ and G0 S2 protein expression in Hep G2 cells. Knockdown of C/EBPβ also attenuated lipid accumulation and augmented lipolysis in palmitate-treated Hep G2 cells. G0 S2 knockdown attenuated lipid accumulation and augmented lipolysis,while G0 S2 knockdown had no effects on the m RNA expression of C/EBPβ,PPARγ,and PPARγ target genes(GPR81,GPR109 A and Adipoq) in palmitate-treated Hep G2 cells. CONCLUSION Palmitate can induce lipid accumulation in Hep G2 cells by activating C/EBPβ-mediated G0 S2 expression.

Research progress in the SO2 resistance of the catalysts for selective catalytic reduction of NOx

The selective catalytic reduction （SCR） of NOx with NH3 has been proven to be an efficient technology for NOx conversion to N2. However, the catalysts used for SCR usually suffer from the problem of sulfur poisoning which seriously limits their practical application. This review summarized sulfur poisoning mechanisms of various SCR deNG catalysts and strategies to reduce deactivation caused by SO2 such as doping metals, controlling the structures and morphologies of the catalysts, and selecting appropriate supports. The methods and procedures of catalysts preparation and the reaction conditions also have effect on SO2-resistance of the catalysts. Several novel catalyst systems that exhibited good SO2 resistance are also introduced. This paper could provide guidance for the development of highly efficient sulfur-tolerant deNOx catalysts.

Combination of binary active sites into heterogeneous porous polymer catalysts for efficient transformation of CO_(2) under mild conditions

The transformation of CO_(2)into cyclic carbonates via atom-economical cycloadditions with epoxides has recently attracted tremendous attention.On one hand,though many heterogeneous catalysts have been developed for this reaction,they typically suffer from disadvantages such as the need for severe reaction conditions,catalyst loss,and large amounts of soluble co-catalysts.On the other hand,the development of heterogeneous catalysts featuring multiple and cooperative active sites,remains challenging and desirable.In this study,we prepared a series of porous organic catalysts(POP-PBnCl-TPPMg-x)via the copolymerization metal-porphyrin compounds and phosphonium salt monomers in various ratios.The resulting materials contain both Lewis-acidic and Lewis-basic active sites.The molecular-level combination of these sites in the same polymer allows these active sites to work synergistically,giving rise to excellent performance in the cycloaddition reaction of CO_(2)with epoxides,under mild conditions(40℃ and 1 atm CO_(2))in the absence of soluble co-catalysts.POP-PBnCl-TPPMg-12 can also efficiently fixate CO_(2)under low-CO_(2)-concentration(15%v/v N2)conditions representative of typical CO_(2)compositions in industrial exhaust gases.More importantly,this catalyst shows excellent recyclability and can easily be separated and reused at least five times while maintaining its activity.In view of their heterogeneous nature and excellent catalytic performance,the obtained catalysts are promising candidates for the transformation of industrially generated CO_(2)into high value-added chemicals.

A MOF derived hierarchically porous 3D N‐CoP_(x)/Ni_(2)P electrode for accelerating hydrogen evolution at high current densities

Hydrogen evolution reaction is a critical reaction in water splitting for hydrogen production.However,developing effective and stable non‐noble‐metal electrocatalysts which work well at high current densities demanded by industry still remain great challenge.Herein,taking advantage of the highly tunable metal‐organic framework(MOF)templates,nitrogen doped binary transition metal phosphides electrocatalysts(N‐CoP_(x)/Ni_(2)P)with three‐dimensional(3D)conductive network structure were successfully synthesized.The 3D open porous channels could expose more catalytically active sites;nitrogen doping and the synergistic effect between CoP and Ni_(2)P can increase the electron density of Co atoms at active sites,further optimizing the Gibbs free energy of hydrogen(ΔGH*)and water(ΔG_(H_(2)O*)).As a result,the obtained N‐CoP_(x)/Ni_(2)P catalyst exhibits extraordinary electrocatalytic activity in a wide pH range.Especially,it requires an extremely low overpotential of 152 mV to deliver a high current density of 650 mA cm^(–2) in alkaline media.This work may shed some light on the rational design of cheap electrocatalysts and electrode materials that work well at high current densities.

Production of Interleukin 2 like Growth Factor from the Mitogen Activated Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes of Indian Major Carp, Labeo rohita

Optimum conditions for in vitro production of interleukin 2 （IL 2） like activity from the Peripheral blood lymphocytes （PBL） of an Indian major carp, Labeo rohita were studied. Culture supernatants were generated by culturing the PBL in RPMI-1640 media supplemented with Glutamine and 10% fetal bovine serum （FBS） and stimulating with two different mitogens： concanavalin A （Con A） and Phytohaemagglutinin （PHA） at different concentrations separately. Significantly （P 〈 0.01） higher proliferation response was obtained from the culture supematant stimulated with concanavalin A （Con A） at a concentration of 10 lag mLl. The effect of phorbol myristate acetate （PMA） was also studied by co-stimulating PBL with Con A and PHA separately and it was found to synergistically enhancing the stimulation index with Con A whereas the stimulation index remain unchanged with PHA. The Con A （10 μg mLl） stimulated PBL were also cultured at different cell density, incubation period and incubation temperature in order to optimize the in vitro L. rohita IL2 production. The IL2 like activity was studied by lymphocyte proliferation assay on 72 h Con A blasts using WST based assay technique. Significantly （P 〈 0.01） higher stimulation indices were obtained when the PBL were cultured at a cell density of 1 × 10^6 cells mL^-1 for 30-36 h at an incubation temperature of 30 ℃. The IL2 like activity was purified by DEAE-Sepharose anion exchange chromatography and recorded between 70-130 mM NaCI with peak activity at 110 Mm NaCI. The molecular weight of the factor responsible for IL2 like activity was found to be 15-17 KD.

Mechanism of heterogeneous distribution of Cr-containing dispersoids in DC casting 7475 aluminum alloy

The actual effective partition coefficients of Mg and Cr in a cross-section of a dendrite arm in a direct-chill(DC)-casting ingot of 7475 aluminum alloy are obtained.Meanwhile,by analyzing the microstructure,the mechanism of the heterogeneous distribution of E(Al_(18)Mg_(3)Cr_(2))dispersoids in this DC ingot is revealed.The results show that the actual effective partition coefficients of Mg and Cr are 0.650 and 1.392,respectively,and they describe the heterogeneous distributions of Mg and Cr along the direction of radius of the cross-section of the dendrite arm of the alloy.After homogenization treatment at 470℃ for 24 h,Mg diffuses uniformly,but Cr hardly diffuses.Both the concentrations of Mg and Cr and the sites of heterogeneous nucleation in the alloy are the determinants of the formation of E dispersoids simultaneously.The heat treatment at 250℃ for 72 h provides a large number of the sites of heterogeneous nucleation of the formation of fine E dispersoids that will be formed in the center of the cross-section during the subsequent heat treatment at higher temperature.
