Nevertheless, conventional synthesis methods usually require expensive structure-directing agents(SDAs), pricey raw materials, and eco-unfriendly fluorine-containing additives. Here, we contributed a cost-effective and fluoride-free synthesis method for synthesizing high-quality MFI zeolite nanosheets through a Silicalite-1(Sil-1) seed suspension and urea cooperative strategy, only with inexpensive colloidal silica as the Si source. Our approach was effective for synthesizing both Sil-1 and aluminum-containing ZSM-5 nanosheets. By optimizing key synthesis parameters,including seed aging time, seed quantity, and urea concentration, we achieved precise control over the crystal face aspect ratio and b-axis thickness. We also revealed a non-classical oriented nanosheet growth mechanism, where Sil-1 seeds induced the formation of quasi-ordered precursor particles, and the(010)crystal planes of these particles facilitated urea adsorption, thereby promoting c-axis-oriented growth.The obtained ZSM-5 nanosheets exhibited exceptional catalytic performance in the benzene alkylation with ethanol, maintaining stability for over 500 h, which is 5 times longer than traditional ZSM-5 catalysts. Furthermore, large-scale production of ZSM-5 nanosheets was successfully carried out in a 3 L highpressure autoclave, yielding samples consistent with those from laboratory-scale synthesis. This work marks a significant step forward in the sustainable and efficient production of MFI nanosheets using inexpensive and environmentally friendly raw materials, offering the broad applicability in catalysis.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Although the 2021 Chinese Clinical Practice Guidelines for Enhanced Recovery after Surgery(ERAS)provide recommendations for ERAS in gastrointestinal surgery,the clinical application of standard ERAS nursing models is challenging due to the variety of diseases involved in gastrointestinal surgery and the com-plex factors contributing to patient stress responses.Moreover,stress responses are more severe in older adult patients.Therefore,precision medicine is required to improve the quality of nursing care and promote postoperative recovery in gastrointestinal surgery.and demonstrate nursing benefits through clinical practice.METHODS This randomized clinical trial first established an evidence-based nursing ERAS protocol in older adult patients based on literature related to perioperative nursing measures for gastrointestinal surgery stress response.Next,392 older adult patients who underwent gastrointestinal surgery and were admitted to our hospital between December 2021 and June 2023 were categorized into two groups to receive evidence-based(study group)or conventional(control group)ERAS nursing models,respectively.Intraoperative physiological parameters during surgery and postoperative recovery indicators were compared between the groups.RESULTS Among 64 domestic and international studies,the stress responses of older adult patients mainly included emotional anxiety,sleep disorders,gastrointestinal discomfort,physical weakness,pain,and swelling.The appropriate nursing interventions included comprehensive psychological counseling,pre-and postoperative nutritional support,temperature control,pain management,and rehabilitation training.Compared with the control group,the study group showed lower heart rate,mean arterial pressure,blood glucose level,and adrenaline level;shorter duration of drainage tube placement,time to first flatus,time to first ambulation,and postoperative hospital stay;lower anxiety scores on postoperative day 3;and lower incidences of postoperative infection,obstruction,poor wound healing,and gastrointestinal reactions were lower in the study group(all P<0.05).CONCLUSION The evidence-based nursing measures targeting stress responses based on the conventional ERAS nursing model resulted in stable intraoperative physiological parameters during surgery,promoted postoperative recovery,and reduced the incidence of complications.

文摘Zeolite nanosheets with a short b-axis thickness are highly desirable in lots of catalytic reactions due to their reduced diffusion resistance. Nevertheless, conventional synthesis methods usually require expensive structure-directing agents(SDAs), pricey raw materials, and eco-unfriendly fluorine-containing additives. Here, we contributed a cost-effective and fluoride-free synthesis method for synthesizing high-quality MFI zeolite nanosheets through a Silicalite-1(Sil-1) seed suspension and urea cooperative strategy, only with inexpensive colloidal silica as the Si source. Our approach was effective for synthesizing both Sil-1 and aluminum-containing ZSM-5 nanosheets. By optimizing key synthesis parameters,including seed aging time, seed quantity, and urea concentration, we achieved precise control over the crystal face aspect ratio and b-axis thickness. We also revealed a non-classical oriented nanosheet growth mechanism, where Sil-1 seeds induced the formation of quasi-ordered precursor particles, and the(010)crystal planes of these particles facilitated urea adsorption, thereby promoting c-axis-oriented growth.The obtained ZSM-5 nanosheets exhibited exceptional catalytic performance in the benzene alkylation with ethanol, maintaining stability for over 500 h, which is 5 times longer than traditional ZSM-5 catalysts. Furthermore, large-scale production of ZSM-5 nanosheets was successfully carried out in a 3 L highpressure autoclave, yielding samples consistent with those from laboratory-scale synthesis. This work marks a significant step forward in the sustainable and efficient production of MFI nanosheets using inexpensive and environmentally friendly raw materials, offering the broad applicability in catalysis.
文摘Neurons are highly polarized cells with axons reaching over a meter long in adult humans.To survive and maintain their proper function,neurons depend on specific mechanisms that regulate spatiotemporal signaling and metabolic events,which need to be carried out at the right place,time,and intensity.Such mechanisms include axonal transport,local synthesis,and liquid-liquid phase separations.Alterations and malfunctions in these processes are correlated to neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS).

文摘Background Milk synthesis is an energy-intensive process influenced by oxygen availability.This study investigates how hypoxia affects milk synthesis in BMECs,focusing on key genes involved in lactation and energy metabolism.Methods BMECs were cultured in a normoxic environment and then transferred to a hypoxia chamber with 1%O2 for specified durations.The study evaluated cellular responses through various molecular experiments and RNA sequencing.Small interfering RNA was employed to knock down HIF-1αto investigate whether the lactation-related phenotype alteration depends on HIF-1α.Results Hypoxia disrupted milk protein production by reducing mTOR/P70S6K/4EBP1 signaling and downregulating genes critical for amino acid transport and protein synthesis.Triglyceride synthesis increased due to enhanced fatty acid uptake and the upregulation of regulatory proteins,including FASN and PPARγ.Although glucose uptake was elevated under hypoxia,key enzymes for lactose synthesis were downregulated,suggesting a redirection of glucose toward energy production.Mitochondrial function was impaired under hypoxia,with reduced gene expression in TCA cycle,ETC,cytosol-mitochondrial transport,decreased ATP levels,increased ROS levels,and structural alterations.Additionally,lipid synthesis and glucose uptake depend on HIF-1α,while milk protein synthesis alterations occurred independently of HIF-1α.Conclusions Hypoxia alters milk synthesis in BMECs by disrupting milk protein synthesis,enhancing lipid metabolism,and impairing energy production.These findings provide valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the effect of oxygen deprivation on lactation efficiency,offering potential targets for mitigating hypoxic stress in the mammary glands of dairy animals.

文摘Constructing a framework carrier to stabilize protein conformation,induce high embedding efficiency,and acquire low mass-transfer resistance is an urgent issue in the development of immobilized enzymes.Hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks(HOFs)have promising application potential for embedding enzymes.In fact,no metal involvement is required,and HOFs exhibit superior biocompatibility,and free access to substrates in mesoporous channels.Herein,a facile in situ growth approach was proposed for the self-assembly of alcohol dehydrogenase encapsulated in HOF.The micron-scale bio-catalytic composite was rapidly synthesized under mild conditions(aqueous phase and ambient temperature)with a controllable embedding rate.The high crystallinity and periodic arrangement channels of HOF were preserved at a high enzyme encapsulation efficiency of 59%.This bio-composite improved the tolerance of the enzyme to the acid-base environment and retained 81%of its initial activity after five cycles of batch hydrogenation involving NADH coenzyme.Based on this controllably synthesized bio-catalytic material and a common lipase,we further developed a two-stage cascade microchemical system and achieved the continuous production of chiral hydroxybutyric acid(R-3-HBA).

文摘The goal of photocatalytic CO_(2)reduction is to obtain a single energy-bearing product with high efficiency and stability.Consequently,constructing highly selective photocatalysts with enhanced surface and optoelectronic properties is crucial for achieving this objective.Here,we have developed a simple one-pot vulcanization method to synthesize a MIL-68(In)-derived Cd In_(2)S_(4)/In_(2)S_(3)heterojunction that exhibited stable and high selectivity.Multiple characterizations of the Cd In_(2)S_(4)/In_(2)S_(3)heterojunction revealed a hierarchical tubular structure with numerous surface reactive sites,a high visible-light utilization rate(λ<600 nm),efficient charge separation,and a prolonged charge-carrier lifetime.Moreover,an S-scheme charge transfer mechanism,based on the interleaved band between the two components,improved the reduction capability of the electrons.Benefiting from the compositional and structural synergy,the yield CO by Cd In_(2)S_(4)/In_(2)S_(3)-250(CI-250)reached 135.62μmol·g^(-1)·h^(-1),which was 49.32 times and 32.88 times higher than that of In_(2)S_(3)and Cd In_(2)S_(4),respectively.The Cd In_(2)S_(4)/In_(2)S_(3)heterojunction exhibited a quantum efficiency of 4.23%with a CO selectivity of 71%.Four cycle tests confirmed the good stability and recyclability of the CI-250.This work provides a new approach for designing and preparing high-performance hollow MOFsbased photocatalysts for scalable and sustainable CO_(2)reduction.

文摘Converting CO_(2)with green hydrogen to methanol as a carbon-neutral liquid fuel is a promising route for the long-term storage and distribution of intermittent renewable energy.Nevertheless,attaining highly efficient methanol synthesis catalysts from the vast composition space remains a significant challenge.Here we present a machine learning framework for accelerating the development of high space-time yield(STY)methanol synthesis catalysts.A database of methanol synthesis catalysts has been compiled,consisting of catalyst composition,preparation parameters,structural characteristics,reaction conditions and their corresponding catalytic performance.A methodology for constructing catalyst features based on the intrinsic physicochemical properties of the catalyst components has been developed,which significantly reduced the data dimensionality and enhanced the efficiency of machine learning operations.Two high-precision machine learning prediction models for the activities and product selectivity of catalysts were trained and obtained.Using this machine learning framework,an efficient search was achieved within the catalyst composition space,leading to the successful identification of high STY multielement oxide methanol synthesis catalysts.Notably,the CuZnAlTi catalyst achieved high STYs of 0.49 and 0.65 g_(MeOH)/(g_(catalyst)h)for CO_(2)and CO hydrogenation to methanol at 250℃,respectively,and the STY was further increased to 2.63 g_(Me OH)/(g_(catalyst)h)in CO and CO_(2)co-hydrogenation.
文摘Fischer-Tropsch synthesis offers a promising route to convert carbon-rich resources such as coal,natural gas,and biomass into clean fuels and high-value chemicals via syngas.Catalyst development is crucial for optimizing the process,with cobalt-and iron-based catalysts being widely used in industrial applications.Iron-based catalysts,in particular,are favored due to their low cost,broad temperature range,and high water-gas shift reaction activity,making them ideal for syngas derived from coal and biomass with a low H_(2)/CO ratio.However,despite their long history of industrial use,iron-based catalysts face two significant challenges.First,the presence of multiple iron phases-metallic iron,iron oxides,and iron carbides-complicates the understanding of the reaction mechanism due to dynamic phase transformations.Second,the high water-gas shift activity of these catalysts leads to increased CO_(2) selectivity,thereby reducing overall carbon efficiency.In Fischer-Tropsch synthesis,CO_(2) can arise as primary CO_(2) from CO disproportionation(the Boudouard reaction)and as secondary CO_(2) from the water-gas shift reaction.The accumulation of CO_(2) formation further compromises overall carbon efficiency,which is particularly undesirable given the current focus on minimizing carbon emissions and achieving carbon neutrality.This review focus on the ongoing advancements of iron-based catalysts for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis,with particular emphasis on overcoming these two critical challenges for iron-based catalysts:regulating the active phases and minimizing CO_(2) selectivity.Addressing these challenges is essential for enhancing the overall catalytic efficiency and selectivity of iron-based catalysts.In this review,recent efforts to suppress CO_(2) selectivity of iron-based catalysts,including catalyst hydrophobic modification and graphene confinement,are explored for their potential to stabilize active phases and prevent unwanted side reactions.This innovative approach offers new opportunities for developing catalysts with high activity,low CO_(2) selectivity,and enhanced stability,which are key factors for enhancing both the efficiency and sustainability for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis.Such advancements are crucial for advancing more efficient and sustainable Fischer-Tropsch synthesis technologies,supporting the global push for net-zero emissions goals,and contributing to carbon reduction efforts worldwide.

文摘Continuous research on Cephalotaxus plants has ultimately led to the US food and drug administration (FDA) ap-provalof homoharringtonine in 2012 for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia. Additionally, another important class of natural products from Cephalotaxus plants is cephalotane diterpenoids. Since the discovery of the first member, harring-tonolide,in 1978, cephalotane diterpenoids have garnered significant attention from the scientific community due to their re-markableanti-cancer activity. The unique structural features of cephalotane diterpenoids, a 7/6/5/6-fused tetracyclic carbon skeleton and a bridged lactone, make them ideal targets for synthetic chemists. Successfully synthesizing these complex diterpenoids is of great importance for the discovery and development of anti-tumor drugs. To date, ten research groups have completed the total synthesis of 24 cephalotane diterpenoids. The latest progress in the total synthesis of cephalotane diterpe-noidsis reviewed, showcasing the importance of these innovative synthetic strategies in the efficient synthesis of complex natural products and their potential significance in advancing the field of drug discovery.
