文摘A rapidly growing field is piezoresistive sensor for accurate respiration rate monitoring to suppress the worldwide respiratory illness.However,a large neglected issue is the sensing durability and accuracy without interference since the expiratory pressure always coupled with external humidity and temperature variations,as well as mechanical motion artifacts.Herein,a robust and biodegradable piezoresistive sensor is reported that consists of heterogeneous MXene/cellulose-gelation sensing layer and Ag-based interdigital electrode,featuring customizable cylindrical interface arrangement and compact hierarchical laminated architecture for collectively regulating the piezoresistive response and mechanical robustness,thereby realizing the long-term breath-induced pressure detection.Notably,molecular dynamics simulations reveal the frequent angle inversion and reorientation of MXene/cellulose in vacuum filtration,driven by shear forces and interfacial interactions,which facilitate the establishment of hydrogen bonds and optimize the architecture design in sensing layer.The resultant sensor delivers unprecedented collection features of superior stability for off-axis deformation(0-120°,~2.8×10^(-3) A)and sensing accuracy without crosstalk(humidity 50%-100%and temperature 30-80).Besides,the sensor-embedded mask together with machine learning models is achieved to train and classify the respiration status for volunteers with different ages(average prediction accuracy~90%).It is envisioned that the customizable architecture design and sensor paradigm will shed light on the advanced stability of sustainable electronics and pave the way for the commercial application in respiratory monitory.

文摘Many azo compounds and their intermediates are toxic and have been linked to various health issues,representing a growing global problem.Molecular engineering for selective encapsulation of azobenzene compounds is critical,given their significant use in smart materials and prevalence as environmental micropollutants released from the food and dye industries.However,the current host molecules catering to azobenzene compounds are mainly limited to cyclodextrins,pillar[n]arenes and cucurbit[n]urils,demonstrating a moderate affinity.This report describes that a novel 3,3'-bipyridinium-based cyclophane was capable of encapsulating anionic azobenzene compounds in water with high binding affinity and pH stability through electrostatic attraction-enhanced mechanism,surpassing the extensively reported supramolecular systems.1D&2D NMR experiments,UV-vis spectrum,X-ray crystallography and computational modeling were carried out to understand the host-vip complexation.It's worth noting that the tetracationic cyclophane exhibited good selective and anti-interference encapsulation properties in binary,ternary and seawater systems.Furthermore,upon UV/white light irradiation,the reversible conversion between(E)-4,4'-azobisbenzoate and(Z)-4,4'-azobisbenzoate triggers the dissociation/recomplexation of the host-vip complex within 3 min.This reversible photo-switchable(E)-disodium 4,4'-azobisbenzoateBPy-Box^(4+)supramolecular system holds promise for designing novel materials for extraction/release of azo compounds and other small smart materials.

文摘Encapsulation and protection of hesperidin(HES)in mung bean protein isolate(MPI)-dextran(DX)conjugatestabilized nanoemulsions(MDC NEs)were investigated in this study.The degree of grafting of MDC prepared by a dry-heating method reached 39.70%±0.01% under the optimal conditions of MPI/DX mass ratio 1:2.3,reaction temperature 58.8℃,and reaction time 4 d.Moreover,the analyses of Fourier infrared spectroscopy,intrinsic fluorescence spectroscopy,surface hydrophobicity,and thermal stability further confirmed the covalent grafting of dextran onto MPI molecules.When encapsulated in MDC NEs at 80 MPa for three times by highpressure homogenization,the encapsulation efficiency and loading capacity of HES were 63.62%±0.01%and 0.40±0.00 g/g,respectively.The encapsulated HES exhibited higher antioxidant activity and stronger light and storage stability than the free HES.Additionally,the incorporation of HES inhibited the formation of lipid peroxides in the nanoemulsions.The findings suggest that glycosylation combined with high-pressure homogenization is an effective strategy for enhancing the stability of MPI-based emulsions and improving their encapsulation of HES.This study provides a promising approach for the development of innovative food and beverage products based on MPI emulsions or new materials for encapsulating fat-soluble bioactive compounds.

文摘Hydrogen-bonded framework(HOF) offers an attractive platform to encapsulate enzymes and stabilize their conformation,due to the advantages of mild synthesis conditions,tailorable pore structure,and backbone biocompatibility.However,the efficiency of this HOF approach relies on the interfacial interactions between enzyme vip and the ligand precursors,limiting its adaptability to enzymes with varying surface chemistry property.In this study,we report a site-specific surface modification strategy to positively tailor the enzyme surface charge,facilitating the biomimetic encapsulation of enzymes within HOF in situ.Both experimental results and computational simulation reveal that site-specific amination of enzyme surface's acidic residues contributes to the interfacial accumulation of carboxylic ligand precursors in aqueous solutions via synergistic electrostatic and hydrogen bonding interactions.This substantially facilitates the in situ growth of porous HOF surrounding the aminated enzyme biotemplates,with up to 100% enzyme loading efficiency.The resultant hydrogen-bonded biohybrid framework(HBF) retains high biocatalytic functions while exhibiting exceptional stability under harsh conditions.By leveraging the marked catalytic activity of GOx-NH_(2)@HBF-1 and a H_(2)O_(2)-sensitive QD,a highly sensitive glucose fluorescence sensor is fabricated with a wide linear range(5-2000 μmol/L) and a low quantification limit of 5 μmol/L.This work presents a simple yet effective enzyme surface engineering approach for integrating enzyme into HOF,opening new avenues for the construction of multifunctional HOF biocomposites.
