Article Abstract

BiO species have been identified as the most important active species for the electroreduction of CO to HCOOH over Bi-based materials. However, the BiO species are unstable under high reduction current/potential, limiting further industrial application. Herein, we constructed robust BiO species by incorporating sodion (Na) into Bi nanosheets (denoted as Na-Bi nanosheets). The negatively charged BiO species anchored by the stable Na in Na-Bi nanosheets displayed highly structural stability during CO electroreduction. When the applied current density () was set from -200 to -1200 mA cm, all of the faradaic efficiency (FE) of HCOO (FE) for Na-Bi nanosheets was maintained over 90% in the flow-cell device, whereas the FE for pure Bi nanosheets was dramatically decreased from 90% to 5%. Mechanistic study further revealed that the Na-anchored BiO species can not only alter the potential-limiting step (PLS) but also decrease the energy barrier of the PLS for the electroreduction of CO into HCOOH.

Background: A DNA barcode is a short DNA fragment used to classify and identify specific organisms, taking advantage of the specificity and diversity inherent in biological molecules. Since Herbert introduced the concept in 2003, DNA barcoding has been increasingly used in precision medicine and related fields, including species identification and environmental monitoring, over the past few decades. Although numerous molecular diagnostic techniques have emerged, many face notable obstacles such as sensitivity to handling conditions, high expenses, and limitations in accuracy.

Sea perch is one of the most important fish species farmed in China. However, the frequent outbreak of viral diseases induced by sea perch iridovirus (SPIV) always caused high mortality and heavy economic losses in sea perch aquaculture. Up to now, no effective countermeasures against SPIV infection have been established.

The rapid increase of electronic waste, particularly battery waste, presents significant environmental challenges such as pollutant emissions and resource depletion, emphasizing the need for effective valorization and reuse strategies. This study introduces a novel approach for repurposing end-of-life lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries as catalysts in the pyrolysis of walnut shells (WS). Characterization analyses revealed that LFP provides both Lewis and Brønsted acid sites, which alter the thermal decomposition pathway of WS.

The problem of hospital-acquired infections arising from inadequate antimicrobial and antibiofilm performance in medical textiles is an increasingly urgent threat to public health. The dual strategy combining superhydrophobic surfaces with aPDT exhibits potent antibacterial efficacy and barely triggers the risk of antimicrobial resistance, but still encounters significant challenges, including intricate fabrication methods and narrow spectral absorption of single-photosensitizer (PS) systems. A superhydrophobic-photodynamic dual antimicrobial polyester fabric is developed herein for medical applications to address these challenges.
