Article Abstract
Drug nanocarriers with magnetic targeting and pH-responsive drug-release behavior are promising for applications in controlled drug delivery. Magnetic iron oxides show excellent magnetism, but their application in drug delivery is limited by low drug-loading capacity and poor control over drug release. Herein, core-shell hollow microspheres of magnetic iron oxide@amorphous calcium phosphate (MIO@ACP) were prepared and investigated as magnetic, pH-responsive drug nanocarriers. Hollow microspheres of magnetic iron oxide (HMIOs) were prepared by etching solid MIO microspheres in hydrochloric acid/ethanol solution. After loading a drug into the HMIOs, the drug-loaded HMIOs were coated with a protective layer of ACP by using adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) disodium salt (Na2 ATP) as stabilizer, and drug-loaded core-shell hollow microspheres of MIO@ACP (HMIOs/drug/ACP) were obtained. The as-prepared HMIOs/drug/ACP drug-delivery system exhibits superparamagnetism and pH-responsive drug-release behavior. In a medium with pH 7.4, drug release was slow, but it was significantly accelerated at pH 4.5 due to dissolution of the ACP shell. Docetaxel-loaded core-shell hollow microspheres of MIO@ACP exhibited high anticancer activity.

17β-estradiol (E2) and estriol (E3), as natural estrogen contaminants in aquatic environments, have significant risks to ecosystems and human health by disrupting endocrine functions and inducing reproductive disorders even at trace levels. To address the urgent need for simultaneous monitoring of these structurally similar targets, we developed a dual-potential electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor for efficient parallel detection of E2 and E3. The sensor employs poly (1-naphthylamine)-molybdenum disulfide decorated with gold-silver bimetallic nanoclusters (PNA-MoS@AuAg NCs) as an ECL emitter, utilizing the self-enhancing property of AuAg NCs for intermolecular charge transfer and dual-potential-responsive properties to generate two well-resolved ECL signals (-0.

Flexible sensors exhibit transformative potential across diverse applications ranging from continuous health monitoring to advanced human-machine interaction. However, conventional unimodal sensors are limited in their ability to capture multidimensional signals in complex scenarios. To address this issue, this study synthesized a polymerizable deep eutectic solvent (pDES) from choline chloride (Chcl) and acrylic acid (AA).

We report crystalline CoB and CoB (c-CoB and c-CoB)-involved amorphous CoB (a-CoB) hollow-microspheres (CoB) for enhanced OER performance in alkaline seawater electrolytes. MOF-derived transition metal borides (CoB) possess excellent crystalline-amorphous interfaces, synergistically enhancing charge transfer kinetics and active-site accessibility. Electrochemical analysis reveals a low overpotential of 232 mV at 10 mA cm in 1.

The evolution of single-shelled hollow microspheres is crucial for understanding their structures and advanced applications in catalysis, sensing, and energy conversion. In this work, we employed electrochemiluminescence (ECL) to track the formation process of single-shelled titanium dioxide hollow microspheres (1S-TiO-HMS) synthesized via a carbon microsphere-templated method with controlled calcination times. As calcination progressed, the ECL intensity of a tris(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium(II) (Ru(bpy))-tri--propylamine (TPA) system continuously increased with the decomposed carbon microsphere template and the assembly of TiO nanoparticles into an ordered shell.

In order to address vibration and noise challenges in modern industry while satisfying the lightweighting requirements for aerospace and transportation applications, the development of polymer elastomers integrating both lightweight and high-damping properties holds substantial significance. This study developed polyurethane (PU) with optimized damping and mechanical properties at room temperature through monomer composition optimization. Hollow glass microspheres (HGMs) were introduced into the PU matrix to increase stiffness and reduce density, though this resulted in decreased tensile strength (Rm) and loss factor (tanδ).
