This study presents the successful fabrication of composite membranescomposed of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) polymer blended with titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticlesand a combination of titanium dioxide/zirconium dioxide (TiO2/ZrO2) nanoparticles. The featuresof composite membranes were analyzed with a specific focus on comparing the characteristics ofPVA/TiO2 and PVA/TiO2/ZrO2 composite membranes.TiO2 and ZrO2 nanoparticles were prepared using the sol-gel method. PVA/TiO2 andPVA/TiO2/ZrO2 composite membranes were fabricated utilizing the solution casting method. Acontrolled method of production of nanoparticles and their uniform dispersion inside the polymermatrix are the key components contributing to the success of this approach. TiO2 and ZrO2 nanoparticlesand their composite membranes were characterized through various characterizationmethods encompassing X-ray diffraction (XRD) study, UV-visible absorption spectroscopy, photoluminescence(PL) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier-transforminfrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM) analysis.The XRD study revealed improved crystallinity in composite membranes. ThePVA/TiO2/ZrO2 membrane possessed a greater level of crystallinity than the PVA/TiO2 membrane.The composite membranes exhibited enhanced absorption and PL behaviour. The FTIR spectrarevealed the creation of a charge-transfer complex among the PVA, TiO2 and ZrO2. The AFMstudy indicates that surface roughness increases after dopingGood concurrence is established between grain size calculated by XRD and TEM.PVA/TiO2/ZrO2 exhibits more improved characteristics than PVA/TiO2 because of the compositeversatile properties resulting from the combining of two inorganic structural components with polymer.Such characteristics render it an appealing option for optical and optoelectronic device applications.
本研究成功制备了由聚乙烯醇(PVA)聚合物与二氧化钛(TiO2)纳米颗粒和二氧化钛/二氧化锆(TiO2/ZrO2)纳米颗粒组合而成的复合膜。分析了复合膜的特性,重点比较了 PVA/TiO2 和 PVA/TiO2/ZrO2 复合膜的特性。采用溶液浇铸法制备了 PVA/TiO2 和 PVA/TiO2/ZrO2 复合膜。纳米粒子的可控生产方法及其在聚合物基质中的均匀分散是这种方法取得成功的关键因素。通过各种表征方法,包括 X 射线衍射 (XRD) 研究、紫外-可见吸收光谱、光致发光 (PL) 光谱、透射电子显微镜 (TEM)、傅立叶变换红外 (FTIR) 光谱和原子力显微镜 (AFM) 分析,对 TiO2 和 ZrO2 纳米颗粒及其复合膜进行了表征。与 PVA/TiO2 膜相比,PVA/TiO2/ZrO2 膜的结晶度更高。傅立叶变换红外光谱显示,PVA、TiO2 和 ZrO2 之间产生了电荷转移复合物。原子力显微镜研究表明,掺杂后表面粗糙度增加,XRD 和 TEM 计算出的晶粒尺寸之间具有良好的一致性。PVA/TiO2/ZrO2 比 PVA/TiO2 表现出更好的特性,这是因为两种无机结构成分与聚合物结合产生的复合易变特性。

Background: Gastric cancer is a prevalent malignant tumor globally, with metastasis and recurrence serving as primary contributors to the diminished survival rates observed in patients with advanced stages of the disease. Despite numerous investigations into the pathogenesis of gastric cancer, the significance of m6A demethylase ALKBH5 in the initiation and progression of the disease has been established, yet its precise mechanism remains incompletely understood. Methods: Immunohistochemistry was utilized for the evaluation of ALKBH5 expression in gastric cancer tissues, while RT-qPCR and WB were employed for the analysis of ALKBH5 expression in cells. Additionally, the levels of m6A methylation in RNA were assessed using the EpiQuikTM m6A methylation quantitative assay kit. The proliferative and metastatic potentials of gastric cancer cells were assessed using the CCK-8 and Transwell cell assays, respectively. The binding site between miR-625-5p and ALKBH5 was predicted through the TargetScan website, and the interaction was confirmed using a dual luciferase reporter assay. Results: The research findings indicated a significant increase in m6A methylation levels in gastric cancer cells, concomitant with a substantial decrease in ALKBH5 expression. ALKBH5 can inhibit the proliferation and metastasis of gastric cancer cells. Additionally, the interaction between miR- 625-5p and the 3'-UTR of ALKBH5 mRNA, resulting in the suppression of ALKBH5 expression, was validated. Conclusions: Through its specific interaction with ALKBH5, miR-625-5p modulates the proliferation and metastatic potential of gastric cancer cells, bridging a previously unexplored link in the pathogenesis of gastric cancer between miR-625-5p and ALKBH5. This finding suggests that miR- 625-5p could be a potential target for treating gastric cancer, with the goal of enhancing patient outcomes and quality of life.
背景:胃癌是一种全球流行的恶性肿瘤,转移和复发是导致晚期胃癌患者生存率下降的主要原因。尽管对胃癌的发病机制进行了大量研究,但 m6A 去甲基化酶 ALKBH5 在胃癌发病和进展过程中的重要作用已被证实,但其确切机制仍不完全清楚。研究方法免疫组化法评估胃癌组织中 ALKBH5 的表达,RT-qPCR 和 WB 法分析细胞中 ALKBH5 的表达。此外,还使用 EpiQuikTM m6A 甲基化定量检测试剂盒评估了 RNA 中的 m6A 甲基化水平。利用 CCK-8 和 Transwell 细胞检测法分别评估了胃癌细胞的增殖潜能和转移潜能。通过 TargetScan 网站预测了 miR-625-5p 与 ALKBH5 的结合位点,并用双荧光素酶报告实验证实了这种相互作用。结果研究结果表明,胃癌细胞中 m6A 甲基化水平明显增加,同时 ALKBH5 的表达量大幅下降。ALKBH5 能抑制胃癌细胞的增殖和转移。此外,研究还验证了 miR- 625-5p 与 ALKBH5 mRNA 的 3'-UTR 相互作用,从而抑制了 ALKBH5 的表达。结论通过与 ALKBH5 的特异性相互作用,miR-625-5p 调节了胃癌细胞的增殖和转移潜能,在 miR-625-5p 和 ALKBH5 之间架起了一座以前未曾探索过的胃癌发病机制的桥梁。这一发现表明,miR- 625-5p 可以成为治疗胃癌的潜在靶点,从而提高患者的预后和生活质量。

Rodents and many wild and domestic animals, including cattle, donkeys,goats, hares, ostriches, and sheep, spread the Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus (CCHFV),acting as hosts for infected ticks primarily of the Hyalomma genus, which serve as vectors and reservoirsof the virus. CCHF is a severe, potentially lethal, and widespread disease, making it a seriouspublic health issue. Environmental changes impacting rodent populations affect their global distributionand, therefore, play a role in the spread of CCHFV.This study aims togain a deeper understanding of the envelope glycoproteins expressed bythe CCHFV.Multiple computational algorithms determined the Intrinsic Disorder Predisposition(PIDP), Polarity Index, and genomic profiles of each sequence of the glycoproteins.When examining the Polarity Index Method Profile, 3.0v profile, and the PIDP profile, theenvelope glycoproteins of the CCHFV showed different patterns. With these patterns, it was possibleto identify structural and morphological similarities.With the PIM 3.0v profile, our computer programs were able to identify isolatedCCHFV envelope glycoproteins. We believe that this research provides a deeper understanding ofthis virus.Using the PIM 3.0v profile, our computer programs were able to identify isolates of the CCHFV envelope glycoproteins. We believe that this research contributes to a deeper understanding of this emerging virus.
啮齿动物以及许多野生和家养动物,包括牛、驴、山羊、野兔、鸵鸟和绵羊,都会传播克里米亚-刚果出血热病毒(CCHFV),它们是主要由蜱属(Hyalomma)感染的蜱虫的宿主,而蜱虫则是病毒的传播媒介和储存库。CCHF 是一种严重的、可能致命的、广泛传播的疾病,是一个严重的公共卫生问题。影响啮齿动物种群的环境变化会影响它们在全球的分布,因此也会在 CCHFV 的传播中发挥作用。多种计算算法确定了每个糖蛋白序列的内在紊乱倾向性(PIDP)、极性指数和基因组图谱。利用极性指数法 3.0v 图谱,我们的计算机程序能够识别分离出的 CCHFV 包膜糖蛋白。我们相信,这项研究有助于加深对该病毒的了解。利用 PIM 3.0v 图谱,我们的计算机程序能够识别分离出的 CCHFV 包膜糖蛋白。我们相信,这项研究有助于加深对这一新兴病毒的了解。

Leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania protozoa can be fatal if left untreated.An effective and safe human vaccine has still not been produced to eradicate the disease. Amongvaccine development studies, dead vaccines are still known as the most reliable and cheapest method.The selection of an effective and safe adjuvant is important for killed vaccines. We have notfound any studies in which hydroxyapatite particles were used as adjuvants in vaccine researchagainst leishmaniasis.In this study, spherical Hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanoparticles with dimensions of 100nmwere synthesized. Then, these particles were combined with autoclaved L. infantum antigens (ALA)to prepare vaccine formulations at different concentrations. To determine the immunogenicity ofHAp, MTT cell viability analysis, nitric oxide (NO), and cytokine production abilities were investigatedin vitro in J774 macrophage cells.According to the study results, it was determined that the cell viability level was 97 % at aconcentration of 200 μg/ml, and there was a 10-fold increase in NO production and an approximately8.5-fold increase in IL-12 cytokine production ability compared to the control group.Considering the study results and the non-toxic properties of HAp, we have shown thatHAp can be used as an adjuvant in the development of new leishmania vaccines.
由利什曼原虫引起的利什曼病如果不及时治疗会导致死亡。在疫苗开发研究中,死疫苗仍被认为是最可靠、最廉价的方法。在本研究中,合成了尺寸为 100nm 的球形羟基磷灰石(HAp)纳米颗粒。该研究合成了尺寸为 100nm 的球形羟基磷灰石(HAp)纳米颗粒,然后将这些颗粒与高压灭菌的婴儿嗜血杆菌抗原(ALA)结合,制备出不同浓度的疫苗制剂。为了确定HAp的免疫原性,研究人员在体外对J774巨噬细胞进行了MTT细胞活力分析、一氧化氮(NO)和细胞因子产生能力的研究。考虑到研究结果和 HAp 的无毒特性,我们证明 HAp 可用作开发新型利什曼病疫苗的佐剂。

Currently, aluminum (Al) cookware is frequently utilized as a container forfood preparation all over the world. The migration of elements from Al cookware can pose a seriouspotential health hazard. However, there is a lack of information about the leaching of multi-elementsfrom Al cookware and their behaviours. A new investigation for leaching of multi-elements from Alcookware during conventional cooking environments was depicted in the current study.Ten different Al cookware made by different manufacturers were used for simulatingcooking media. Inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) as a fast, simple and reliabletechnique was used to investigate the leaching of multi-elements (34 elements) from Alcookware. Limits of detection (LOD) and limits of quantification (LOQ) ranged between 0.001-0.030 and 0.004-0.100 μg/L, respectively.This study revealed that numerous elements, including Al, arsenic (As), chromium (Cr),copper (Cu), cobalt (Co), lead (Pb), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), magnesium (Mg), nickel (Ni), zinc(Zn) and vanadium (V) were released from Al cookware during conventional cooking conditions.Repeatability, reproducibility and recovery values ranged between 0.94 – 4.59% RSD, 1.76-4.71%RSD, and 96- 109%, respectively. The leaching amounts and behaviours of elements were closelyrelated to the solution pH and cooking time. At acidic conditions, the concentrations of Al, Pb andMn surpass WHO limits. After a 15-minute cooking duration, Al concentrations ranged from 56.8 to8048 μg/L, which subsequently increased to 1097 – 201423 μg/L after 60 min. Several behaviours ofAl leaching, including an extreme release, a linear release and a low release, were observed amongsamples. This could be probably due to the formation of a passivation layer of Al2O3 which preventsthe oxidation of Al. Moreover, Pb and Mn were detected at 14.1–25.8 and 262.5 μg/L after 30 min,respectively. At neutral media, Al, Cu, As, V, Mg and Zn were quantified among all studied pots.Further interesting findings are to observe the behaviour leaching of Zn at concentrations of 55-120μg/L, including a strong release within 30 min in some samples, while others showed a linear dissolutionwithin 60 min of the cooking process.The study provided for the first time a more detailed study of the processes involved inthe release of multi-elements during cooking inside Al cookware compared to the other hitherto publishedstudies, which is an important insight in the field of food safety and other areas. The cumulativerelease of multi-elements from Al cookware could emphasize the importance of assessing thequality of such cookware, urging a closer examination of its composition and possibly advocating forpotential alterations in the future.The study revealed that numerous elements, including aluminium (Al), arsenic (As), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), cobalt (Co), lead (Pb), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), nickel (Ni), and vanadium (V) were obs
目前,铝(Al)炊具经常被用作世界各地烹饪食物的容器。铝制炊具中元素的迁移会对健康造成严重危害。然而,目前还缺乏有关铝制炊具中多种元素的沥滤及其行为的信息。本研究对传统烹饪环境下铝制炊具中多元素的沥滤进行了新的调查。使用电感耦合等离子体质谱法(ICP-MS)这种快速、简单、可靠的技术来研究铝制炊具中多种元素(34 种元素)的沥滤情况。该研究发现,在传统烹饪条件下,铝制炊具中释放出多种元素,包括铝、砷(As)、铬(Cr)、铜(Cu)、钴(Co)、铅(Pb)、铁(Fe)、锰(Mn)、镁(Mg)、镍(Ni)、锌(Zn)和钒(V)。重复性、再现性和回收率分别为 0.94 - 4.59% RSD、1.76-4.71%RSD 和 96-109%。元素的浸出量和浸出行为与溶液的 pH 值和蒸煮时间密切相关。在酸性条件下,铝、铅和锰的浓度超过了世界卫生组织的限值。烹煮 15 分钟后,铝的浓度范围为 56.8 至 8048 微克/升,60 分钟后增至 1097 - 201423 微克/升。在不同的样品中观察到了几种铝浸出行为,包括极度释放、线性释放和低释放。这可能是由于形成了 Al2O3 钝化层,阻止了铝的氧化。此外,30 分钟后检测到的铅和锰分别为 14.1-25.8 和 262.5 μg/L。在中性介质中,所有研究的锅中都定量检测到了铝、铜、砷、钒、镁和锌。更有趣的发现是观察了锌在 55-120 μg/L 浓度下的沥滤行为,包括一些样品在 30 分钟内的强烈释放,而另一些样品则在烹饪过程的 60 分钟内呈现线性溶解。与迄今为止发表的其他研究相比,该研究首次对铝制炊具在烹饪过程中多种元素的释放过程进行了更详细的研究,这对食品安全和其他领域具有重要意义。研究显示,烹饪后观察到多种元素,包括铝(Al)、砷(As)、铬(Cr)、铜(Cu)、钴(Co)、铅(Pb)、铁(Fe)、锰(Mn)、镍(Ni)和钒(V)。不过,值得注意的是,在所有测试的酸性溶液中,铝、铅和锰的浓度都高于世界卫生组织规定的饮用水限值。在不同的时间,铝的释放量也不同。这可能与防止铝氧化的 Al2O3 钝化层不同有关。15 分钟后,铅的浓度介于 12.4 - 23.4 µg/L 之间,30 分钟后增至 14.1 - 25.8 µg/L。30 分钟后检测到的锰浓度为 262.5 微克/升,60 分钟后检测到的锰浓度为 414.2 微克/升。其他有趣的发现是观察所有测试的中性溶液中锌的沥滤行为。一些样品在 30 分钟的接触时间内出现了锌的释放,而另一些样品则在 60 分钟的接触时间内出现了线性溶解。

This study aimed to analyze the content and structure of pectin in tobacco samples.As one of the most important economic crops, tobacco products have a long history and dominate the development of the world economy. Pectin, as a complex colloidal substance widely present in plant cell walls, its content is an important factor affecting the safety of tobacco smoking.This study aimed to analyze the content and structure of pectin in tobacco samples.In this study, tobacco pectin was extracted by ultrasound-assisted ionic liquid extraction, and the 13C MultiCP/MAS NMR spectral analysis of pectin was conducted.The type of extractant, ultrasonic time, ultrasonic temperature, and solid-liquid ratio were optimized. Under the conditions of using 1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([Bmim]BF4 ) as the extractant, the solid-liquid ratio of 1:20 g/mL, and the ultrasonic power of 600 w for 30 min at 30℃, a yield of 23.7% of tobacco stem pectin and a purity of 54.2% could be obtained. The optimized MultiCP sequence parameters, with 10 CP cycles of 1.0 ms and a repolarization time of 50 ms could obtain high-resolution spectra within a time of 1.0 h. The C-6 peaks of the pectin in the spectrograms were fitted using the spectral deconvolution technique and calculated the methyl-esterification (DM) of the tobacco pectin which was generally less than 50%, and belonged to the low methyl esterification pectin. The pectin content of the tobacco sample was calculated by the standard curve method with the addition of dimethyl sulfone (DMS) as an internal reference.The results of this method were consistent with the colorimetric method.The 13C MultiCP/MAS NMR method has the advantages of being green, fast, and accurate, and provides a new technical tool for quantitative and qualitative studies of cell wall substances in tobacco samples.No

The widespread presence of persistent organic pollutants, such as dyes ineffluent from printing and textile industries, poses a significant threat to aquatic life and humanhealth. Photocatalytic degradation is widely recognized as a promising technology to address thispollution crisis. The efficiency of photocatalysis is intricately tied to both the active radicals and theband structure of the catalyst. These factors play a crucial role in governing the photodegradation ofdye molecules.In2S3/CeO2 heterojunctions were synthesized using an in-situ precipitation method andsubsequently analyzed through SEM, XRD, and XPS techniques. Notably, the bandgap structure ofthe heterojunctions was examined through UV-Vis DRS. The photocatalytic performance of the synthesizedsamples was assessed by studying the degradation of methyl orange. To further validate thephotocatalytic process, EPR spectroscopy was employed to confirm the presence of radicals generatedwithin the heterojunction.The heterojunction displayed a characteristic type-II structure, enhancing light absorptionand facilitating the separation of photoinduced carriers. Among the In2S3/CeO2 composites, the onewith a 15 wt% CeO2 content exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity, achieving an 88% degradationof methyl orange after 90 min of exposure to visible light irradiation. Additionally, •O2− is identifiedas the primary active species responsible for degradation.UV-Vis DRS illustrated the improved transfer and separation of photogenerated electronsattributed to the optimized band structure of the heterojunction. EPR spectroscopy yielded valuableinformation on active radicals, thereby proposing the photocatalytic degradation mechanism.
持久性有机污染物的广泛存在,如印刷和纺织行业排放的染料,对水生生物和人类健康构成了严重威胁。光催化降解被公认为是解决这一污染危机的一项前景广阔的技术。光催化的效率与活性自由基和催化剂的带状结构密切相关。我们采用原位沉淀法合成了 In2S3/CeO2 异质结,随后通过扫描电镜、XRD 和 XPS 技术对其进行了分析。值得注意的是,通过紫外可见 DRS 分析了异质结的带隙结构。通过研究甲基橙的降解,评估了合成样品的光催化性能。为了进一步验证光催化过程,采用了 EPR 光谱法来确认异质结中产生的自由基的存在。异质结显示出特征性的 II 型结构,增强了光吸收并促进了光诱导载流子的分离。在 In2S3/CeO2 复合材料中,CeO2 含量为 15 wt% 的复合材料表现出最高的光催化活性,在可见光照射 90 分钟后,甲基橙的降解率达到 88%。紫外可见 DRS 显示,由于异质结的带状结构得到了优化,光生电子的转移和分离得到了改善。EPR 光谱法提供了有关活性自由基的宝贵信息,从而提出了光催化降解机制。

Background: Bronze knives, which have been excavated in large quantities and acquired hierarchical significance, are essential artifacts in Shu State in Southwest China. Building upon previous typological analyses of bronze knives, it is hypothesized that Shu culture may have imported foreign-style bronze knives. However, further demonstration of the provenance of metal materials, the typology of knives, and the cultural exchange necessitates a comprehensive examination through the lens of scientific analysis. The purpose of this study is to investigate the differences in the manufacturing processes and metal resources of Shu bronze knives with various cultural styles and whether bronze knives in the foreign styles were imported or locally imitated. Methods: In this study, the typology, portable X-ray fluorescence spectrometry and multi-collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry were used to analyze twenty-four bronze knives unearthed from Shuangyuan cemetery, a cemetery of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty in Chengdu City, Sichuan Province, Southwest China. Results: The results of the study show that the knives of Shuangyuan Cemetery can be classified typologically into five types, encompassing both local and foreign styles. The predominant alloy composition of these knives is lead-tin bronze, characterized by a notably high tin content. Lead isotope ratios indicate that metal materials from the South China geochemical province and Yangtze geochemical province were mainly used to manufacture the bronze knives unearthed from the Shu state Conclusion: While the majority of foreign-style knives with ring-shaped heads were likely imported from neighboring regions like Chu state, distinctively styled type D and type E bronze knives appear to have been locally imitated by the Shu, showcasing a blend of external influences and indigenous innovation. The combination of typology and scientific analysis of the bronze knife may shed new light on the study of the Shu culture of the Eastern Zhou period.
背景:青铜刀是中国西南地区蜀国的重要器物,出土量大,具有等级意义。根据以往对青铜刀的类型学分析,推测蜀文化可能曾传入过外来风格的青铜刀。然而,要进一步证明金属材料的来源、刀的类型和文化交流,就必须通过科学分析的视角进行全面考察。本研究的目的是探讨不同文化风格的蜀国青铜刀在制造工艺和金属资源方面的差异,以及外来风格的青铜刀是舶来品还是本地仿制品。研究方法:本研究采用类型学、便携式 X 射线荧光光谱仪和多收集器电感耦合等离子体质谱仪对四川省成都市双元东周墓地出土的 24 件青铜刀进行了分析。研究结果研究结果表明,双源墓地出土的青铜刀从类型上可分为五种,既有本地风格,也有外来风格。这些刀具的主要合金成分是铅锡青铜,其特点是锡含量明显偏高。铅同位素比值表明,蜀国墓地出土的青铜刀主要使用了华南地球化学省和长江地球化学省的金属材料:大部分外来的环首刀可能是从楚国等周边地区传入的,而风格独特的D型和E型青铜刀似乎是蜀人在当地仿制的,体现了外来影响与本土创新的融合。将青铜刀的类型学与科学分析相结合,可为东周时期的蜀文化研究提供新的启示。
