The inference of regulators might be the core factor for understanding actual regulatory conditions in gene regulatory networks, especially when strong regulators do work significantly. In this paper, we propose a novel approach based on combining neuro-fu^zy network models with biological knowledge to infer strong regulators and interrelated fuzzy rules. The hybrid neuro-fuzzy architecture can not only infer the fuzzy rules, which are suitable for describing the regulatory conditions in regulatory nctworks+ but also explain the meaning of nodes and weight value in the neural network. It can get useful rules automatically without lhctitious judgments. At the same time, it does not add recursive layers to the model, and the model can also strengthen the relationships among genes and reduce calculation. We use the proposed approach to reconstruct a partial gene regulatory network of yeast, The results show that this approach can work effectively.展开更多

The membranes were characterized by contact angle measurements, scanning electron microscopy(SEM), atomic force microscopy(AFM), thermogravimetric analysis, and zeta potential.The performance of the membranes was elucidated by the removal of perfluorooctane sulfonate(PFOS) at neutral p H. Increasing OMMT concentration improved the thermal stability and hydrophilicity of the membranes. The permeation and rejection of PFOS were significantly improved. The performance of fabricated nanofiltration membranes in removal of PFOS varied depending on the solute and membrane properties as well as solution conditions. Finally,a comparison between fabricated membranes and a commercial NF membrane(ESNA1-K1,Hydecanme) proved that the OMMT addition is a convenient procedure for producing nanocomposite membranes with superior properties and performance.展开更多

However, the development of such bismuth-based composites still remains a challenging task due to difficult recovery and low catalytic efficiency. Herein, a novel CC/BiPO4</sub>/Bi2</sub>WO6</sub> composite was successfully synthesized through two-step hydrothermal method using activated flexible carbon cloth as a substrate. The results of the photocatalytic degradation experiments showed that the obtained CC/BiPO<sub>4</sub>/Bi<sub>2</sub>WO<sub>6</sub> composites can degrade 92.1% RhB in 60 min under UV-visible light irradiation, which was much higher than that of unloaded BiPO4</sub> (24.4%) and BiPO4</sub>/Bi2</sub>WO6</sub> (52.9%), exhibiting a better adsorption-photocatalytic degradation performance than BiPO4</sub> and BiPO4</sub>/Bi2</sub>WO6</sub>. Photoluminescence spectra indicated that the improved photocatalytic activity was due to the more effective inhibition of photogenerated carrier complexation. Furthermore, the radical capture experiments confirmed that h<sup>+</sup>, ·OH and O<sub>2</sub>-</sup> were the main active substances in the photocatalytic degradation process of RhB by the CC/BiPO4</sub>/Bi2</sub>WO6</sub> composites. More importantly, the prepared CC/BiPO4</sub>/Bi2</sub>WO6</sub> composite had a simple separation process and good recycling stability, and its photocatalytic degradation efficiency can still reach 53.3% after six cycles of RhB degradation. .展开更多

The K3</sub>MoO2</sub>F<sub>5</sub><sup>.</sup><sub></sub>2H2</sub>O:Mn4+</sup> phosphor has a blocky structure and exhibits sharp red emission at the range of 580 to 670 nm excited by the blue light at 470 nm. The fabricated WLED device at 20 mA current has low correlation color temperature (CCT = 3608 K) and high color rendering index (Ra = 90.1), which can significantly improve the electroluminescence performance of cold WLED devices. These results indicate that the K3</sub>MoO2</sub>F5</sub><sup>.</sup>2H2</sub>O:Mn4+</sup> phosphor has potential application value in warm WLED excited by blue light chip. .展开更多

文摘Built-in electric field coupled piezoelectric polarization engineering is a promising method to adjust and boost the catalytic performance of photocatalysts.Herein,BiOIO_(3)-Bi_(2)Te_(3) type-II heterojunction piezo-photocatalyst was proposed and prepared by a sequential hydro-solvothermal method.Due to the co-drive of the heterojunction and photothermal-piezoelectric polarization effect certified by piezoelectric force microscopy,COMSOL simulations,and infrared thermography,the photocatalytic degradation performance of the as-prepared BiOIO_(3)-Bi_(2)Te_(3) on rhodamine B was dramatically improved under the co-excitation of visible light and ultrasound compared with under the single light irradiation and the single ultrasonic conditions.Typically,the BiOIO_(3)-Bi_(2)Te_(3) photocatalyst always showed significantly better catalytic degradation performance than the pure Bi_(2)Te_(3),BiOIO_(3),and BiOIO_(3)/Bi_(2)Te_(3) mechanical mixtures.Impressively,based on the optimal conditions obtained by systematically studying the effects of temperatures,ultrasound intensities,and inorganic salts on the piezo-photocatalytic rhodamine B degradation,the optimum composite ratio BiOIO_(3)-Bi_(2)Te_(3)-20 piezo-photocatalyst can also effectively remove tetracycline and Cr(VI),and also achieve the purpose of simultaneously removing a mixture of these three pollutants with good recycling stability.Such enhanced catalytic performance was mainly attributed to the disruptions of the electrostatic equilibrium and saturation effects of the built-in electric field under successive ultrasonic and photoinduced co-disturbance,thus enhancing the driving force of separation and migration of photogenerated carriers as verified by electrochemical tests,energy band structure theory,and DFT calculations.Based on which and the sacrificial agent experiments,the photocatalytic degradation mechanism was proposed.This research showcased the significant potential for environmental remediation using solar energy and mechanical energy cooperatively.

文摘Photothermal therapy(PTT)has presented its inherent application value in cancer treatment.Nevertheless,single-functional photothermal materials cannot meet the precise diagnosis and treatment of cance r.Therefo re,it is important to design a nanocomposite that has both high therapeutic efficiency and multimodal imaging capabilities.In our work,a new nanostructure of gold nanorods(AuNRs)with silver shells decorated by BaGdF5:Yb^(3+),Er^(3+)nanoparticle was synthesized by a simple way.The biostability of AuNRs is increased by coating with silver shells,and the AuNR@Ag nanoparticles can be used as excellent surface enhanced Raman scattering(SERS)probe.Moreover,the modification of BaGdF5:Yb^(3+),Er^(3+)nanoparticles provides the possibility of real-time optical imaging of the tumor area.Under the irradiation of NIR laser,the AuNR@Ag/BaGdF5:Yb^(3+),Er^(3+)nanocomposites(NCs)have strong upconversion emission and excellent photothermal conversion efficiency.Meanwhile,the NCs show low cytotoxicity and good biocompatibility in MTT cytotoxicity test.Moreover,the NCs are also exceptional contrast agents for CT imaging.For in vitro photothermal therapy test,NCs show excellent killing efficiency on tumor cells.Therefore,the multifaceted research of AuNR@Ag/BaGdF5:Yb^(3+),Er^(3+)multifunctional nanomaterials provides a break for high-efficiency tumor photothermal therapy and multimodal imaging.

文摘Eu^(3+) ions were grafted onto the surface of electrospun polyacrylonitrile(PAN)nanofibers through coordination effect between C≡N groups on PAN nanofibers and Eu^(3+) ions,and benzoic acid(BA)was introduced as an assistant ligand.The impacts of concentrations of Eu^(3+) ions and BA,and reaction time on the properties of final products were investigated.The results reveal that Eu^(3+) ions can be successfully grafted onto PAN nanofibers,but the fluorescence intensity of the obtained PAN@Eu^(3+) nanofibers is very weak.After BA is introduced as the assistant ligand,the fluorescence intensity of the obtained PAN@(Eu^(3+)/BA)nanofibers is greatly stronger than that of PAN@Eu^(3+)nanofibers,and meanwhile,concentration quenching effect of Eu^(3+) ions can be effectively restrained.Furthermore,the superior structure of PAN@(Eu^(3+)/BA)nanofibers not only brings the effective utilization of precious elemental europium,but also guarantees high mechanical strength.

文摘Inferring gene regulatory networks from large-scale expression data is an important topic in both cellular systems and computational biology. The inference of regulators might be the core factor for understanding actual regulatory conditions in gene regulatory networks, especially when strong regulators do work significantly. In this paper, we propose a novel approach based on combining neuro-fu^zy network models with biological knowledge to infer strong regulators and interrelated fuzzy rules. The hybrid neuro-fuzzy architecture can not only infer the fuzzy rules, which are suitable for describing the regulatory conditions in regulatory nctworks+ but also explain the meaning of nodes and weight value in the neural network. It can get useful rules automatically without lhctitious judgments. At the same time, it does not add recursive layers to the model, and the model can also strengthen the relationships among genes and reduce calculation. We use the proposed approach to reconstruct a partial gene regulatory network of yeast, The results show that this approach can work effectively.

文摘Solar steam generation is a promising water purification technology due to its low-cost and environmentally friendly applications in water purification and desalination.However,hydrophilic or hydrophobic materials alone are insufficient in achieving necessary characteristics for constructing highquality solar steam generators with good comprehensive properties.Herein,novel hydrophile/hydrophobe amphipathic Janus nanofibers aerogel is designed and used as a host material for preparing solar steam generators.The product consists of an internal cubic aerogel and an external layer of photothermal materials.The internal aerogel is composed of electrospun amphipathic Janus nanofibers.Owing to the unique composition and structure,the prepared solar steam generator integrates the features of high water evaporation rate(2.944 kg m^(-2)h^(-1)under 1 kW m^(-2)irradiation),selffloating,salt-resisting,and fast performance recovery after flipping.Moreover,the product also exhibits excellent properties on desalination and removal of organic pollutants.Compared with traditional hydrophilic aerogel host material,the amphipathic Janus nanofibers aerogel brings much higher water evaporation rate and salt resistance.

文摘In the past decades,many materials have been studied as carriers for targeted drug delivery.However,there is a need for utilizable and selective carrier materials with few side effects.Here,the magnetic Ganoderma Lucidum Spores(mGLS)as a highly efficient targeted drug delivery carrier were explored.Then the regulatable targeted drug delivery system was verified by loading and releasing of the 5-Fluorouracil(5-FU).The results showed that the maximum of the loaded 5-FU reached 250.23 mg·g^(−1)in the mGLS.The cumulative release of the 5-FU for the drug delivery system could reach 80.11%and 67.14%in the PBS and HCl after 48 h,respectively.In addition,this system showed the good pharmacokinetic properties in vivo.After 12 h,the blood concentration in the 5-FU@mGLS group kept at 5.3µg·mL^(−1)and was four times higher than that in the 5-FU group.In summary,the GLS as a natural microscale core-shell structures appears the striking application in carrier material for oral drug delivery.

文摘Nanocomposite membranes containing poly(m-phenylene isophthalamide)(PMIA) and organically modified montmorillonite(OMMT) were prepared by a combination of solution dispersion and wet-phase inversion methods, and the effects of OMMT addition on the properties and performance of fabricated nanofiltration membranes were investigated. The membranes were characterized by contact angle measurements, scanning electron microscopy(SEM), atomic force microscopy(AFM), thermogravimetric analysis, and zeta potential.The performance of the membranes was elucidated by the removal of perfluorooctane sulfonate(PFOS) at neutral p H. Increasing OMMT concentration improved the thermal stability and hydrophilicity of the membranes. The permeation and rejection of PFOS were significantly improved. The performance of fabricated nanofiltration membranes in removal of PFOS varied depending on the solute and membrane properties as well as solution conditions. Finally,a comparison between fabricated membranes and a commercial NF membrane(ESNA1-K1,Hydecanme) proved that the OMMT addition is a convenient procedure for producing nanocomposite membranes with superior properties and performance.
文摘Along with the popularity of environmental protection concepts, the environmental treatment of water pollution attracts widespread attention, among which, the research on Bi-based semiconductor photocatalytic degradation technology has made great progress. However, the development of such bismuth-based composites still remains a challenging task due to difficult recovery and low catalytic efficiency. Herein, a novel CC/BiPO4</sub>/Bi2</sub>WO6</sub> composite was successfully synthesized through two-step hydrothermal method using activated flexible carbon cloth as a substrate. The results of the photocatalytic degradation experiments showed that the obtained CC/BiPO<sub>4</sub>/Bi<sub>2</sub>WO<sub>6</sub> composites can degrade 92.1% RhB in 60 min under UV-visible light irradiation, which was much higher than that of unloaded BiPO4</sub> (24.4%) and BiPO4</sub>/Bi2</sub>WO6</sub> (52.9%), exhibiting a better adsorption-photocatalytic degradation performance than BiPO4</sub> and BiPO4</sub>/Bi2</sub>WO6</sub>. Photoluminescence spectra indicated that the improved photocatalytic activity was due to the more effective inhibition of photogenerated carrier complexation. Furthermore, the radical capture experiments confirmed that h<sup>+</sup>, ·OH and O<sub>2</sub>-</sup> were the main active substances in the photocatalytic degradation process of RhB by the CC/BiPO4</sub>/Bi2</sub>WO6</sub> composites. More importantly, the prepared CC/BiPO4</sub>/Bi2</sub>WO6</sub> composite had a simple separation process and good recycling stability, and its photocatalytic degradation efficiency can still reach 53.3% after six cycles of RhB degradation. .
文摘Herein, the K<sub>3</sub>MoO<sub>2</sub>F<sub>5</sub><sup>.</sup>2H<sub>2</sub>O:Mn<sup>4+</sup> phosphor was synthesized by using low toxic NH<sub>4</sub>HF<sub>2</sub> and HCl instead of highly toxic HF. The K3</sub>MoO2</sub>F<sub>5</sub><sup>.</sup><sub></sub>2H2</sub>O:Mn4+</sup> phosphor has a blocky structure and exhibits sharp red emission at the range of 580 to 670 nm excited by the blue light at 470 nm. The fabricated WLED device at 20 mA current has low correlation color temperature (CCT = 3608 K) and high color rendering index (Ra = 90.1), which can significantly improve the electroluminescence performance of cold WLED devices. These results indicate that the K3</sub>MoO2</sub>F5</sub><sup>.</sup>2H2</sub>O:Mn4+</sup> phosphor has potential application value in warm WLED excited by blue light chip. .

文摘Synthesis of valuable(Z)-1;2-dialkyl alkenes via cis-semihydrogenation of alkynes is often plagued by side reactions such as alkene isomerization and over-reduction.Here we report a catalyst-state induced color-change(CatSICC)strategy for precise detection of reaction endpoint of transfer hydrogenation(TH);enabling highly efficient and cis-selective semihydrogenation of dialkyl alkynes with EtOH as H-donor.A series of NHC carbene-containing pincer iridium complexes(PCC_(NHC))IrHX(X=Br or I)have been prepared and applied to the TH reaction.Monitoring the TH process reveals a vibrant color-change of the solution from purple to yellow-orange as a result of transition of the catalyst-state from(PCC_(NHC))Ir(alkyne)to(PCC_(NHC))IrHMe(CO);signifying the complete conversion of alkyne substrate.Quenching the reaction timely according to the color-change allows access to(Z)-1;2-dialkyl alkenes with very high efficiency;exquisite precision;and broad functional group tolerance.The reliability and practicability of this protocol is demonstrated by cis-semihydrogenation of complex polyfunctionalized bioactive molecules.Mechanistic studies establish that the propensity of(PCC_(NHC))Ir to undergo facile EtOH decarbonylation to form isomerization-inactive species(PCC_(NHC))IrHMe(CO)only when the semihydrogenation reaction is completed is important to stereo-and chemoselectivity control.

文摘Polyolefins(POs,i.e.,polyethylenes,ethylene/α-olefin copolymers,and polypropylenes)are the most ubiquitous synthetic macromolecular materials in modern life.Their widespread use and low recovery rate after extensive usage have caused significant resource waste and environmental concerns.Chemical recycling of POs provides an efficient approach to unravelling the polymer chain to various chemicals.However,conventional chemical recycling methods,including pyrolysis,hydrocracking,and oxidation,require high-energy input(typically>500℃)and/or the use of environmentally unfriendly chemicals,leading to complex product distribution.In this minireview,based on recent representative works,we summarize and highlight catalytic strategies addressing these issues in PO recycling from two perspectives:(1)employing advanced catalysts or technique designs to overcome the challenges in conventional chemical deconstruction approaches;and(2)developing novel tandem/cascade catalytic systems for highly selective PO upcycling under relatively mild conditions.We hope that this minireview will help researchers better understand the state of the art of PO chemical recycling and inspire more innovative and efficient ideas for this fast-developing field.

文摘Increasing demand for polar functionalized polyolefins has motivated the development of new polymerization chemistry to introduce functional groups into polyolefins,which is industrially important but scientifically challenging.Coordination-insertion copolymerization of ethylene and polar comonomers offers a direct and economic way to synthesize functionalized polyethylenes and great achievements have been gained by employing catalytic systems based on transition metals and rare earth metals.Continuous efforts have been devoted to developing novel catalytic systems and strategies to introduce chemically diverse functionalities at specific positions,control over the microstructures and get high molecular weight functionalized polyethylenes with high activity and good enchainment capacity.This article summarizes some important advances in the past three years in this field,focusing on the studies using chemically diverse polar comonomers to afford functionalized polyethylenes with novel microstructures.
