This paper intro-duces a method for synthesizing a gold leaching reagent. Sodium cyanate is used as the main raw material, with sodium hydroxide and so-dium ferrocyanide used as additives. The gold leaching reagent can be obtained under the conditions of a mass ratio of sodium cyanate,sodium hydroxide, and sodium ferrocyanide of 15:3:1, synthesis temperature of 600℃, and synthesis time of 1 h. This reagent has a goodrecovery effect on gold concentrate and gold-containing electronic waste. The gold leaching rate of roasted desulfurized gold concentratecan reach 87.56%. For the extraction experiments of three types of gold-containing electronic waste, the gold leaching rate can reach over90% after 2 h. Furthermore, the reagent exhibits good selectivity towards gold. Component analysis indicates that the effective compon-ent in the reagent could be sodium isocyanate.展开更多

Developing synergistic therapy can provide a highly promising strategy for anti-cancer treatment through combining the benefits of various mechanisms.Methods In this study, we developed a synergistic strategy for chemo-photothermal therapy by constructing nanocomposites using gold nanorods(GNRs) and tetrahedral framework nucleic acids(tFNA) loaded with the anti-tumor drug doxorubicin(DOX).Results Our in vitro studies have systematically clarified the anti-cancer behaviors of tFNA-DOX@GNR nanocomposites, characterized by their enhanced cellular uptake and proficient lysosomal escape capabilities. It was found that the key role of tFNA-DOX@GNR nanocomposites in tumor ablation is primarily due to their capacity to induce cytotoxicity in tumor cells via a photothermal effect, which generates instantaneous high temperatures. This mechanism introduces various responses in tumor cells, facilitated by the thermal effect and the integrated chemotherapeutic action of DOX. These reactions include the induction of endoplasmic reticulum stress, characterized by elevated reactive oxygen species levels, the promotion of apoptotic cell death, and the suppression of tumor cell proliferation.Conclusion This work exhibits the potential of synergistic therapy utilizing nanocomposites for cancer treatment and offers a promising avenue for future therapeutic strategies.展开更多

文摘Gold ores in the Jiaozhou region of China are characterized by their abundant reserves,low grade,fine dissemination,and chal-lenges in upgrading.Froth flotation,with xanthate as the collector,is a commonly employed method for enriching auriferous pyrite from these ores.This study aimed to develop a more efficient flotation process by utilizing cavitation nanobubbles for a low-grade gold ore.Batch flotation tests demonstrated that nanobubbles significantly enhanced the flotation performance of auriferous pyrite,as evidenced by improved concentrate S and Au grades and their recoveries.The mechanisms underlying this enhancement were explored by investigat-ing surface nanobubble(SNB)formation,bulk nanobubble(BNB)attachment to hydrophobic pyrite surfaces,and nanobubble-induced agglomeration using atomic force microscopy(AFM)and focused beam reflectance measurement(FBRM).The results revealed that nan-obubble coverage on the pyrite surface is a critical factor influencing surface hydrophobicity and agglomeration.SNBs exhibited higher coverage on pyrite surfaces with increased surface hydrophobicity,flow rate,and cavitation time.Similarly,BNB attachment on pyrite surfaces was significantly increased with surface hydrophobicity and cavitation time.Enhanced surface hydrophobicity,along with higher flow rates and cavitation times,promoted pyrite particle agglomeration owing to the increased nanobubble coverage,ultimately leading to improved flotation performance.
文摘A new gold self-relay catalytic annulation/nucleophilic substitution cascade of 1,3-enyne acetates with cyclic ether acetals is reported,enabling highly diastereoselective access to cyclic etherified cyclopentenones with cyclic quaternary centers in moderate to good yields and>19∶1 dr.This catalysis enables the direct construction of two types of carboncyclic skeletons by adjusting the olefin types of 1,3-enyne acetates.When 1,3-enyne acetates bearing a cyclic alkene unit were used,5~6 fused bicarbocyclic products were diastereoselectively synthesized,whereas the reaction of acyclic 1,3-enyne acetates resulted in five-memebered carbocyclic framework.Notably,cyclic ether acetals are commonly used as protecting groups in traditional multistep organic syntheses,and in this reaction,such reagents serve as electrophilic cyclic ether precursors,achieving new uses for old reagents.The current method demonstrates good functional group compatibility,a broad substrate scope and high diastereoselectivity,providing a new synthetic strategy toward functionalized cyclopentenones.

文摘Gold-catalyzed amination reactions based on azides viaα-imino gold carbene intermediates have attracted extensive attention in the past decades because this methodology leads to the facile and efficient construction of synthetically useful N-containing molecules,especially valuable N-heterocycles.However,successful examples of intermolecular generation ofα-imino gold carbenes by using azides as amination reagents are rarely explored probably due to the weak nucleophilicity of azides.Herein,we disclose an efficient gold-catalyzed intermolecular aminative cyclopropanation of ynamides with the allyl azides,enabling flexible synthesis of a wide range of valuable 3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hex-2-ene derivatives in good to excellent yields with excellent diastereoselectivities.Importantly,this protocol represents the first use of allyl azide as an efficient amination reagent in gold-catalyzed alkyne amination reactions.
文摘The Sakay gold deposit in Vientiane,Laos,is located in the Indochina landmass of the southeastern segment of the Tethys orogenic belt,specifically within the Vientiane-Pakse micro-landmass and the Vientiane-Pakse metallogenic belt.This area is regionally significant for the concentration of minerals such as gold,copper,and tin.The host rocks of the deposit are intermediate volcanic lavas and volcanic tuffs,occurring in near-east-west brittle shear structural fractures through hydrothermal filling and metasomatism.The ore exhibits granular texture,subhedral texture,porphyritic texture,and oriented polycrystalline texture,with structural features such as disseminated,vein-like,and cataclastic breccia.The main ore minerals are pyrite,sphalerite,galena,and chalcopyrite,while the gangue minerals are primarily quartz,calcite,and dolomite.Gold is mainly present as included gold or fissure gold within the crystal lattices and microfractures of minerals such as pyrite and sphalerite.Based on mineral assemblages and generation timing,the mineralization can be divided into three stages:arsenopyrite-pyrite-dolomite-quartz(Ⅰ),sphalerite-galena-chalcopyrite-calcite(Ⅱ),and siderite(Ⅲ),with the latter stages often overlaying the former,showing evident cross-cutting and metasomatic phenomena.The surrounding rocks in the mining area are altered,mainly showing silicification,carbonatization,limonitization,sericitization,and chloritization.Preliminary studies suggest that this deposit is a low-temperature hydrothermal gold deposit within a brittle shear zone.

文摘This study comprises the relationship between organic matter(OM)and gold occurrence using two distinctive ore deposits of the Bakyrchik gold-sulfide deposit(Kazakhstan)and Western Mecsek uranium ore deposit(Hungary).The two ore deposits are identified as organicrich sedimentary formations linked to the Variscan gold cycle globally.Characterizing OM is essential because it can act as a carrier for gold,influencing its distribution and behavior within the deposit.Understanding the nature and distribution of OM can provide insights into the processes of gold deposition and help optimize exploration and extraction strategies in mining operations.The primary objective is to characterize OM by identifying its elemental composition,thermal maturity,functional groups,and soluble fractions;and extract gold from OM using a two-step sequential extraction method(hydrogen peroxide and aqua regia)combined with geochemical techniques.Analytical and experimental results from samples of both ore deposits indicate the presence of finely disseminated solid bitumen and reworked vitrinite,originating from thermally matured(RmcRo%—3.76 in Bakyrchik;Ro%—2.25 in W-Mecsek)terrigenous high plants.Both deposits exhibit extremely low extractable bitumen yield and TOC(0.34%in Bakyrchik;0.25 wt%in W-Mecsek),characterized by an aromatic carboxylic acid organic structure and a composition rich in sulfur-containing(1.17%in Bakyrchik;5.81%in W-Mecsek)aromatic hydrocarbons.Gold occurrence and enrichment within OM were confi rmed through the sequential extraction method employing ICP-OES and LA-ICP-MS techniques.The sequentially extracted gold content from OM reached up to 3 ppm in Bakyrchik and up to 3.28 ppm in Western Mecsek,accompanied by Ag(ranging from 0.01 to 0.32 ppm).Higher concentrations of Au(4 ppm)and Ag(27 ppm)were extracted from residue materials,which are likely associated with sulfide minerals.The presence of gold in OM was further validated using LA-ICP-MS.Gold bonding within OM structure,gold is preserved in the form of lattice gold or structurally bonded metal most likely within the aromatic hydrocarbon fractions of the OM in both the W-Mecsek and Bakyrchik deposits.These findings underscore the profound potential of ongoing exploration endeavors,off ering pivotal revelations regarding the extraction and practical application of Au and Ag derived from OM within the geochemical framework of both ore deposits.

文摘Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides(TMDs)show great promise for developing the next generation of electronic and optoelectronic devices.However,most TMDs have n-type or n-dominant bipolar characteristics,and this severely limits their potential for being designed as multi-functional heterostructures.Recently,thermal annealing has been reported as an easy means of p-doping TMDs,but the mechanism remains ambiguous,thereby preventing reliable outcomes and it becoming a mature doping technology for TMDs.Here,the mechanism of thermal annealing for p-doping a 2D selenide is investigated thoroughly,revealing the key role of the catalytic effect of nano-thick gold electrodes in achieving p-doping.As an example,2D SnSe_(2)with a fairly high electron density of∼10^(18)cm^(−3)is used,and its electrical performance is greatly enhanced after thermal annealing when 30-nm-thick gold electrodes are deposited.The results of performing XPS and Auger electron spectroscopy on samples before and after annealing show that the p-doping effect is due to the oxidation of selenide atoms,during which the gold acts as a critical catalytic element.This method is also shown to be valid for other 2D selenides including WSe_(2)and MoSe_(2),and the present findings offer new avenues for enriching the electrical properties of 2D selenides by means of annealing.

文摘The advancement in catalysis techniques for sustainable environmental applications,particularly an alternative to the current Haber-Bosch process for NH_(3),has recently gained widespread attention.Although photocatalytic conversion of N_(2) to NH_(3) using solar energy is an eco-friendly method,it has the limitation of low quantum yield.Recently,2D Bi-based photocatalysts which exhibit higher visible light absorption than TiO_(2) and higher stability than MXene have been an active research topic,and their performance can be enhanced through improved visible light absorption properties by incorporating plasmonic gold nanoparticles while nitrogen adsorption could be enhanced through oxygen vacancy(OV)processes.In the present study,we explore the application of 2D nanosized Bi_(2)O_(3–x) and gold nanoparticles for visible light photo generation of NH_(3).HRTEM and XPS reveal that the formation of AuNP and nano-sized Bi_(2)O_(3–x) in AuNP/Bi_(2)O_(3–x) heterozygote structure promotes the charge carrier mobility and charge transport at the interface,resulting in a 2.6-fold increase in the photocatalytic activity compared to micro-sized Bi_(2)O_(3–x) with AuNP.The improved photocatalytic performance can be ascribed to significant enhancement of visible light absorption by plasmonic nanoparticles,fast charge transport and mobility(due to sheet morphology)and the N_(2) activation by OV in AuNP/Bi_(2)O_(3–x) heterozygote.Through a systematic experimental investigation involving catalysts,concentration,pH,and scavengers,the highest photocatalytic performance was achieved with the heterozygote structures of AuNP/n-Bi_(2)O_(3–x) under optimized conditions,yielding 432.5μmol gcat^(-1) h^(-1) of NH_(3).

文摘One of the major challenges in the application of microbially induced carbonate precipitation(MICP)is achieving"bacteria freedom",as it necessitates a substantial volume of bacterial solutions.Nevertheless,both insitu bacterial cultivation and transportation of bacterial solutions have proven to be inefficient.In this study,we suggested the utilization of bacteria in the form of dry powder,enabling easy on-site activation and achieving a relatively high urease activity.We conducted MICP curing experiments on gold mine tailings(GMT)using steel slag(SS)as an additive.The results showed that the average unconfined compressive strength(UCS)values of the tailings treated with MICP and MICP+SS reached 0.51 and 0.71 MPa,respectively.In addition,the average leaching reduction rates of Cu,Pb,Cr,Zn,and T-CN in GMT after MICP treatment reached 98.54%,100%,70.94%,59.25%,and 98.02%,respectively,and the average reduction rates after MICP+SS treatment reached 98.77%,100%,88.03%,72.59%,and 98.63%,respectively.SEM,XRD,FT-IR analyses,and ultra-deep field microscopy results confirmed that the MICP treatment produced calcite-based calcium carbonate that filled the inter-tailing pores and cemented them together,and the hydration mechanism was the main reason for the increased curing efficiency of SS.Our research findings demonstrate that bacterial powder can efficiently achieve the objectives of heavy metal removal and tailing solidification.This approach can substantially de-crease the expenses associated with bacterial cultivation and solution transportation,thereby playing a crucial role in advancing the practical implementation of MICP.

文摘Objective Cancer remains a significant global health challenge, necessitating the development of effective treatment approaches. Developing synergistic therapy can provide a highly promising strategy for anti-cancer treatment through combining the benefits of various mechanisms.Methods In this study, we developed a synergistic strategy for chemo-photothermal therapy by constructing nanocomposites using gold nanorods(GNRs) and tetrahedral framework nucleic acids(tFNA) loaded with the anti-tumor drug doxorubicin(DOX).Results Our in vitro studies have systematically clarified the anti-cancer behaviors of tFNA-DOX@GNR nanocomposites, characterized by their enhanced cellular uptake and proficient lysosomal escape capabilities. It was found that the key role of tFNA-DOX@GNR nanocomposites in tumor ablation is primarily due to their capacity to induce cytotoxicity in tumor cells via a photothermal effect, which generates instantaneous high temperatures. This mechanism introduces various responses in tumor cells, facilitated by the thermal effect and the integrated chemotherapeutic action of DOX. These reactions include the induction of endoplasmic reticulum stress, characterized by elevated reactive oxygen species levels, the promotion of apoptotic cell death, and the suppression of tumor cell proliferation.Conclusion This work exhibits the potential of synergistic therapy utilizing nanocomposites for cancer treatment and offers a promising avenue for future therapeutic strategies.

文摘Selenolate ligands are expected to endow fluorescent gold nanoclusters(AuNCs)with better stability and more bioactivity than thiolate ligands,making them promising in the biological field.However,there are few studies on the synthesis of water-soluble selenolate-protected AuNCs,and the impact of selenolate ligands on the optical properties of AuNCs is still unclear.In this study,we synthesized selenolatecostabilized water-soluble,near-infrared fluorescent AuNCs with four different amounts of benzeneselenol(PhSeH),and systematically investigated the role of PhSeH on their optical properties.It is discovered that an appropriate PhSeH content is favorable for the fluorescence enhancement of AuNCs due to the ligand to metal charge transfer effect.Moreover,AuNCs co-stabilized by selenolate ligands exhibit better photostability and long-term stability compared with AuNCs stabilized by thiolate ligands,owing to the introduction of Au-Se bond on their surfaces.Further cellular experiments revealed that selenolate ligands can also affect the cellular uptake efficiency of AuNCs and their imaging property.These results provide important knowledges for further development of new,robust selenolate-stabilized metal NCs for biological application.
