Authors: Sofriana Imaningsih Erna , Yusliza Mohd Yusoff , Hamdan Hamdan , Marlapa Eri , Shiratina Aldina
Published: October 2023

The focus of this study aims to analyze the egoistic, biospheric and green self-identity values of green purchase intentions in Indonesia who have experience consuming green brands. Because the research approach used purposive nonprobability sampling, questionnaire techniques and PLS data analysis were chosen. The results of this study show that egoistic value has a positive effect on green self-identity but negatively on green purchase intention. The value of the biosphere hurts green self-identity but positively on green purchase intention. Finally, green self-identity has a positive effect on green purchase intention. Of course, this will be an essential contribution to future research as additional knowledge, especially for governments, developers, managers or other business actors in realizing environmentally friendly behaviour. The practical and theoretical implications of this study are discussed in more depth.

How Male Gaze Can Influence the Perception of Art Pieces from the Psychiatric Art Collection of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences? (Case Study)
Authors: Faludy Judit
Published: October 2023

The objective of this paper is to comprehend the environmental impact, specifically the influence of the psychiatric institution, on a work of art created within the context of psychiatric treatment. Additionally, the paper focuses on exploring the artwork’s impact on the viewer, and examining how we perceive these drawings – whether as neutral observers or through a sexualized lens. The intention is to present a collection of artworks produced by a female patient during her hospitalization in the 1950s and 1960s at the National Institute of Psychiatry and Neurology in Budapest. For the purposes of this study, the artist has been given the pseudonym “Antonia”, as her identity is only known within the institutional records through her marital status, identification by her husband’s name, and an approximate age at the time of admission. Antonia’s drawings depict women engaged in various everyday situations, such as enjoying an elegant dinner or dancing, and also include portraits of a young, attractive, and sexually appealing individual. When interpreting these drawings, it is impossible to avoid being influenced by the perspective from which the figures, seemingly vulnerable and exposed even in their elegant attire, offer their creator a glimpse into their emotions, anxieties, and fears. The aim of this study is to demonstrate that, even in contemporary times, decades after their creation, when approached from the perspectives of art history, psychology, and sociology, these drawings can only be accessed through the patriarchal lens that initially categorized them as part of the museum canon and included them in the collection during their respective era. Departing from this foundational standpoint proves to be a challenging endeavor.

The research status and development trend of children health education
Authors: Wang Dafang
Published: October 2023

In pediatric clinical practice, it is found that common and frequently-occurring diseases in children have the characteristics of acute onset, rapid change, aggregation and being preventable and controllable. School health education is particularly important for the prevention and control of common and frequently-occurring diseases in preschool and school-age children. School health education refers to the combination of kindergarten, school and other places of staff advocated by the various learning experience, the development of students from now on to learn to deal with various expected health challenges with necessary cognitive skills and behavioral skills. The former State Education Commission and the Ministry of Health jointly promulgated the "Regulations on School Health Work" in 1980, making our country's school health work followed by regulations. In 1992, the "Basic Requirements for Health Education for Primary and Secondary School Students" was jointly promulgated, which clearly stipulated the objectives and basic contents of health education in primary and secondary schools in China. In 2007, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council in the `Opinions on Strengthening Youth Sports to Enhance the Physical Fitness of Adolescents (Central Document No.7)' required that 'local education administrative departments should include the implementation of health education in schools as one of the important indicators of school supervision and assessment', and 'schools at all levels should actively carry out adolescent health education activities such as disease prevention, scientific nutrition, health and safety, drug control and tobacco control, and ensure the necessary health education time'. Although the health problems of primary and middle school students have received continuous attention and investment from the state and society, the health literacy of primary and middle school students in China has not been significantly improved in recent years, and the overall downward trend of students' health level has not been fundamentally curbed, partly due to China's lagging school health education system. Through literature mining, this paper refines the research focus of foreign health education and the challenges faced by foreign health education. By combing the research progress of health behavior and academic performance, adolescent media cognitive ability and health education workers' health cognitive ability, it reflects the future research direction of health education in China.

Aspirin and ibuprofen are aryl acids of nonsteroidal anti inflammatory drugs with goodanalgesic. For reducing the gastrointestinal toxicity associated with presence free carboxylicacid functional group in aspirin and ibuprofen, therefore the present work is aimed tosynthesize a novel ester prodrugs of these two drugs. These two novel prodrugs were preparedby the reaction of aspirin or ibuprofen acid chloride with 1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-α-Dglucofuranose,then deprotection of ester prodrug of aspirin was also accomplished using 70%acetic acid. The purity of the synthesized compounds was established by (TLC), columnchromatography, while their structures were confirmed by (FT-IR, 1HNMR, 13CNMR). Then36 rabbits has been obtained and divided to six groups to show the bioavailability of theprepared prodrugs at some biochemical parameters and compared with the parent drugs andcontrol group. Statistical analysis revealed significant increases in the levels of creatinekinase, alkaline phosphatase, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine amino transferase,glutathione, malondialdehyde, creatinine, uric acid, concentration of Cu, and significantdecreases in the levels of choline esteras, total protein, Zn concentration, while the resultsshowed no significant increases in the activity of lactate dehydrogenase, acid phosphataseand no significant decreases in the levels of albumin, globulin, and iron concentration for theprepared prodrugs compared with the control group. Finally, to ensure the release of parentdrugs(aspirin or ibuprofen), hydrolytic studies of the ester prodrugs were obtained at differentpH (2, 4, 10 and 12) at 25οC, the results showed that the hydrolysis at basic pH were fasterthan acidic pH, so it means that the most hydrolysis will obtain at intestine not at stomach.

Authors: S Hassan Mahfoth , A Thanoon Imad , M Khalaf Musab
Published: October 2023

Hyperprolactinemia is a well-established adverse effect associated with the use of typical and atypical antipsychotics. Hyperprolactinemia is associated with both acute and chronic clinical consequences in men and women. Increased prolactin levels received little attention and were rarely monitored. Therefore, the primary objective of this study is to investigate the effects of two atypical antipsychotics (olanzapine and risperidone) on prolactin level in schizophrenic patients. For this purpose, a therapeutic clinical trial was done. We prospectively recruited 28 schizophrenic patients attended to Social and Psychiatric Service Centre in Mosul city. All patients fulfilled the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th edition (DSM-IV) criteria for schizophrenia. They were randomized to receive monotherapy with either olanzapine in a dose 5-20 mg or risperidone in a dose 4-12 mg for 8 weeks (two groups). Also 22 apparently healthy subjects with approximately age and sex matching to the patients groups without previous history of schizophrenia or any other psychiatric disorders were taken as a control group. This study shows that, at baseline, there were no significant differences between the three studied groups in term of prolactin level and, after treatment with these drugs for 8 weeks, both drugs caused a significant increase in the prolactin level compared to baseline levels and that risperidone causes significantly greater increase in the levels of prolactin than olanzapine
Institute of Concrete Social Research of the USSR Academy of Sciences. Development of the problem of the social structure of Soviet society
Authors: Grigoryan Karen Grachikovich
Published: October 2023

The genesis of the development of Russian sociology is a process whose complexity was caused by the political and ideological collisions of the Soviet period. At the same time, starting from the middle of the twentieth century, a qualitatively new stage begins in the development of sociology, which is called the "golden age" of Russian sociological thought. During these years, not only theoretical and applied methods of the pre-war period are revived, but also a powerful theoretical and methodological scientific base is being created, which laid the foundation of sociology as an independent science. One of the important moments was the activity of the Institute of Concrete Social Research (ICSI) of the USSR Academy of Sciences. Within the framework of ICSI activities, multi-scale work was carried out, including on the problems of the social structure of Soviet society. The development of sociological science in the Soviet period can be called the most ambiguous and, to some extent, tragic page in the history of scientific thought in Russia. On the one hand, sociological research, especially regarding the social structure of Soviet society, has become in demand from both a political and an economic point of view since the emergence of the Soviet state. In a relatively short period in the young Soviet state, an extensive network of sociological laboratories was created, in which large-scale research was conducted in various directions. The activities of ICSI and its predecessors - the Sector of Research on New Forms of Work and Life and the Department of Sociological Research of the Institute of Philosophy of the USSR Academy of Sciences – allowed Soviet sociologists to unite into a team of like-minded people, and, despite ideological prohibitions and sanctions, to formalize sociological research into a multi-scale and complex theoretical and methodological basis of sociology.

In the article, the authors consider issues related to the family as a social institution of society, which through the education system is a carrier, keeper and translator of cultural ideals. The subject of the study is family education, interpreted as the process of translating the ideals and values of culture. The article examines the concept and functions of the family as a leading social institution, sacred and profane ideals of culture and their mutual influence, types of family education, distinguished depending on the characteristics of the transmitted cultural values. When writing the work, such general scientific and private scientific research methods as analysis, synthesis, classification, generalization, comparison, historical method, analysis of empirical and sociological data on the studied problem were used. The general methodology of the work was compiled by scientific works of both domestic and foreign scientists devoted to the family as a carrier of cultural values. The analysis of scientific literature on research issues has shown that the modern family performs not only reproductive functions, but also the functions of preserving and reproducing cultural values, allowing society and the state to maintain stability and develop in the conditions of globalization and active influence on society through the imposition of new cultural values. The scientific novelty lies in the proposed author's typology of modern types of family education, depending on the transmitted cultural values. As a conclusion, the statement is substantiated that the family broadcasting religious and traditional values most correspond to the spiritual and moral ideals of Russian society, its civic interests, at the same time, the values of initiative, independence in decision-making, broadcast to a greater extent in the family of liberal values, are most relevant for the modern system of public relations, for personalities of the post-industrial type.

Authors: Es'kov Aleksandr Vasil'evich , Tsimbal Vitaly Nikolaevich
Published: October 2023

The safety of the human environment is a fairly relevant area of research at the present time. Existing technologies make it possible to prevent threats to society and an individual in megacities, as well as to minimize potential negative factors from their manifestation, and should be implemented actively and in a timely manner. The relevance of the study is due to the fact that a city with a population of more than a million people should have at its disposal a modern and efficient mechanism for managing it, which allows making decisions in the shortest possible time and quickly enough in the field of ensuring public safety and comfortable life. Such a mechanism is the "Safe City" system. However, despite the widespread introduction of such systems in most cities, they require constant qualitative improvement: the addition of new functions and the results of scientific achievements. The work is devoted to the study of the effectiveness of the application of the hardware-software complex (HSC) "Safe City" on the example of the municipality of the city of Krasnodar, as well as proposals for its improvement. In particular, the addition of additional functionality and individual technical and software solutions (biometric technologies, recognition of actions of people, objects and subject, neural network technologies, etc.), which will improve the quality of its work, in order to ensure the safety of the life of a modern city, responding to threats to public safety and eliminating their consequences (illegal acts, emergencies accidents, natural phenomena). The scientific novelty consists in a comprehensive study of the effectiveness of the application of the HSC "Safe City" in the city of Krasnodar and the formulation of proposals for its improvement. The scientific value of the work lies in the fact that the presented proposals can be used in practice when improving the "Safe City" system to achieve a decent standard of living for citizens in a modern city, its security and safety.

Published: October 2023

This article is based on the results of the historical and legal analysis of sources and documentation, which investigated the concept and structural features of the legal regulation of national security. The article identifies concepts and approaches to the formulation of the concept of "national security". The historical cross-section of the formation of the legal regulation of Russia's national security programs has also been studied. Method, methodology of the study. In the process of working on the article, relevant research tools and techniques of the general scientific type were used, as well as such methods of scientific cognition as analysis (including historical and legal, synthesis, method of abstraction and modeling, system-structural approach, functional and formal-logical methods). Thanks to the use of a system-legal approach, it became possible to build a hierarchy of existing regulatory legal acts that perform the role of regulators in matters of national security of the Russian Federation. The issues of protecting the security of the state and strengthening it serve as the foundation for protecting the vital values of the country and its interests. Due to the increase in the level of military threat and tension since 2014, as well as the intensification of this threat since the beginning of a special military operation in February 2022 by Russia in Ukraine, there is an objective need for an operational, strategic response of the state system to new military challenges and threats to the national security system of the country. The threat is the strengthening of destructive tendencies in the activities of Western states, the formation of foreign military-power infrastructure formations near the Russian borders, which can be considered as a source of risk and a possible springboard for future military operations. There is also such a type of threat as a sharp decrease in the pace of international cooperation, cooperation in various areas. Against this background, the author of this article proposes the development and adoption of a new federal law "On national Security" for the Russian Constitution.
Information about computer handwriting: The challenges of finding a balance between individual liberty and state security
Authors: Tsvetkova Anna Denisovna
Published: October 2023

The present study is devoted to the introduction of biometric identification systems in law enforcement. The author pays special attention to the phenomenon of computer handwriting, examining in detail the constitutional and legal aspects of the use of knowledge about it. For this purpose a wide methodological apparatus is used: comparative-legal method, method of analogy, deduction, method of modelling and others. The Russian practice and potential for further development are compared with the experience of foreign countries both in the regulation of general issues of biometric personal data and in situations of legal regulation of computer handwriting data. The author investigates how to simultaneously solve the problems of detection and investigation of offences in which printed texts act as evidentiary materials, and at the same time preserve human rights to privacy, personal and family secrecy, anonymity on the Internet. It is noted that computer handwriting is a rather young phenomenon for legal science; there is still no in-depth study of it from the perspective of this field of knowledge. This paper is only a beginning in understanding the topic under consideration. It raises basic questions: whether it is permissible to use knowledge about computer handwriting, how it should be protected and where it should be stored, whether it is necessary to limit the existing commercial interest in its use. As a result, the author comes to the following conclusions: it is permissible and necessary to collect information on computer handwriting, as this will reduce infringements on the natural rights of man and citizen. For such collection it is necessary to use a centralised state system in which all the requirements for the security of critical information infrastructure are implemented. However, before such a system is put into operation, it is necessary to support commercial companies in relevant developments and oblige them to provide information about users' computer handwriting at the request of authorised persons.
Problems and prospects of the European Union: economic aspects
Authors: Hasanov Javid
Published: October 2023

This article analyzes the economic aspects currently faced by the European Union. The author resorts to studying this issue through the prism of several important categories, such as the functioning of the single market, the role of the eurozone, the impact of globalization and digital transformation on the economy, as well as issues of sustainable development. A variety of general scientific methods are used for analysis, including analysis and synthesis, as well as logical and comparative descriptive approaches. This allows the author to gain a deeper understanding of the economic situation of the European Union and identify potential solutions to these problems. The analysis of this article leads to the conclusion that the prospects for the economic development of the European Union are closely related to its level of integration within the Union, its ability to adapt to the processes of globalization and successfully solve both internal and external challenges. Despite significant achievements, such as the creation of the single market and the eurozone, there are still imbalances and vulnerabilities within them that pose serious obstacles to the long-term stability and functioning of the Union. A key factor in determining the future economic trajectory of the EU will be its ability to solve these complex problems and promote innovation and sustainable development. In the modern world, strategic planning and effective management are becoming even more important for preserving and strengthening the position of the European Union in the global economic arena.

Published: October 2023

The subject of the study is the sources of financial support for state guarantees of free medical care to citizens in the Russian Federation. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of the composition and structure of the financial support of state guarantees of free medical care to citizens (including the volume of contributions received by the budget of the Federal Compulsory Medical Insurance Fund for working citizens and for non-working citizens). The authors also assessed the potential volume of MHIF budget revenues from the payment of insurance premiums and compared the results obtained with actual data. Research methods used: structural and dynamic analysis, synthesis, comparison, as well as graphical presentation of the results obtained. Based on the results of the study, it was revealed that contributions for the non-working population are paid from regional budgets. Taken together with the use of funds from the federal budget for the implementation of the program of state guarantees for the provision of free medical care to citizens, this allows us to conclude that the budgetary financial mechanism is predominantly used in financial support for the implementation of state guarantees of free medical care to citizens in Russia. In order to maximize the volume of funds for solving problems in the field of healthcare, as well as ensuring their more efficient use, the authors propose expanding the list of objects subject to insurance premiums, as well as a more reasonable approach to establishing various preferential regimes that reduce the volume of budget revenues of the Federal Compulsory Health Insurance Fund. The author’s calculations showed that the actual revenues of the MHIF budget are approximately half of the potential ones.
The Communicative Potential of Internet Commentary at the System of Public Relations (Macedonian-Albanian case)
Authors: Sorokin Danila Alekseevich
Published: October 2023

An Internet comment, being, in fact, a private opinion left under a post, with a certain set of similar statements, may reflect a trend in issues and topics of concern to society. In this article, based on the analysis of the comments of users of the social network, an assumption is made about the reflection in them of a threat to the integrity of society. The Macedonian social media space was chosen as a case for monitoring, the subject of interest was Internet comments on representatives of the Albanian ethnic minority of the Republic of North Macedonia. The relationship between representatives of two ethnic groups (Albanians and Macedonians) has a conflict background and conflict potential.   Based on the results of the analysis of the corpus of verbal data, the author formulated assumptions about the role of Internet commentary in reflecting the mood of society and its potency as one of the conditions in the development of the Albanian-Macedonian conflict, which is currently in a latent phase. On the one hand, comments left on social networks have a significant destructive potential within the framework of the described case; on the other hand, they have constructive potency, since the space of social networks becomes a kind of substitute in relation to the physical space and makes it possible to keep a possible conflict at the level of rejection in Internet comments, not allowing it to "get out outside."

Geomorphological conditions were divided into 4 namely lowland areas, low hill areas, hilly areas, and high hill areas. The watersheds in the research area were divided into 2 watersheds, namely the Kampar and Siak watersheds. Watershed rainfall observations in the study area for 5 years from 2015 – 2019 were located at 5 different stations, with fluctuating rainfall intensity
Motivational and functional significance of the value of “democracy”: the case of an associative experiment in the Yakut language
Authors: Chirkoeva D. I. , Adamova Z. G.
Published: October 2023

The article is devoted to the demonstration of an ethnopsycholinguistic methodology for a study of the significance of values. For this purpose, on the basis of the psychological theory of activity, the introduction of the category of significance into the ethnopsycholinguistic modeling of the structure and content of values is proposed; the separation of motivational and functional significance is substantiated. The procedure of ethnopsycholinguistic analysis of the motivational and functional significance of the value “democracy” is demonstrated by the example of data analysis of the associative experiment. Conclusions are drawn about the high motivational significance of democracy, which is manifested in the nature of the semantic connection between speech actions expressing internal needs, the situation of satisfying these needs and the emotional and evaluative attitude to this situation; about the functional significance expressed in the limited nature of speech operations. The high prognostic potential of the psycholinguistic approach to the study of the significance of values and the role of speech activity in its formation and functioning is noted.

European Portuguese is a language with a grammatical gender system decisive to agreement. We will assume that gender feature is different from feature class, being mainly syntactic, whether considering syntactic or inherent gender. Morphological constituents that identify the formal classes are often mistaken for gender marks but, in fact, concerning the gender value of their own elements, classes are abstract and heterogeneous. In this article, the relation between class markers and noun gender values will be discussed, within Distributed Morphology framework, aiming to understand the influence of the former ones over Basic education students' implicit and explicit knowledge and rules about gender.
Algumas peculiaridades da construção ir + Infinitivo em Português Europeu
Authors: Luís Filipe Cunha
Published: October 2023

This paper deals with some semantic properties of the structure ir (‘go’) + Infinitive in European Portuguese, in particular when it occurs with the Pretérito Perfeito and with the Presente do Indicativo. We will argue for the hypothesis that, indeed, there are two different constructions behind the ir (‘go’) + Infinitive sequence: one in which ir (‘go’) seems to retain most of its basic lexical properties, imposing strong aspectual restrictions to the situations that can combine with it and another in which ir behaves like a pure temporal operator of futurity, imposing no relevant constraints to the eventualities in its scope.

This paper focuses on the work of the 17th century Portuguese orthographer Álvaro Ferreira de Vera. Based on the survey of explicit references to Spanish language on Vera’s Orthographia (1631a), it aims to explore the meaning of those same references, especially concerning what they convey on the knowledge of Spanish and its role in the history of Portuguese linguistic tradition. This approach shall be undertaken observing the methodological guidelines of Linguistic Historiography and the theoretical framework known as the language issue in Portugal, on which the works of Buescu (1983a) and Vázquez Corredoira (1998) serve as main reference.
Alguns paralelos sintáticos entre construções nominais e frásicas
Authors: Brito Ana Maria
Published: October 2023

In this presentation I describe some syntactic parallels between nominals and clauses, establishing also some semantic similarities between the two domains, trying to answer, from the point of view of European Portuguese, to two main questions: have nominals sentential properties? Have clauses nominal properties? As the category ‘sentence’ / ‘clause’ may be considered as TP and CP, I explore parallelisms between DP and TP and between DP and CP. In the final part I show that, in European Portuguese, at least, nominalization of clauses may give reasons to establish again parallels between DP and TP and between DP and CP. The framework is the one of Principles and Parameters Theory, but, in certain aspects, Distributed Morphology will be adopted.
Verbos de movimento, preposições direcionais e escalas
Authors: Leal António , Oliveira Fátima
Published: October 2023

Prepositions para and até are apparently similar in some contexts, but they give rise to distinct interpretations that are related to the aspectual profile of the predications. This work aims to explore the differences between para and até regarding the telicity of the predications projected by verbs of movement of the type caminhar. Two theoretical perspectives are compared and the data presented suggest that the contribution of these prepositions to the telicity of the predications can be described in a more accurate way by using the notion of ‘scale’, in a similar way to apparently unrelated constructions such as Degree Achievements.

Published: October 2023

The goal of this paper is to present the procedures carried out to adapt and to validate a phonological assessment tool developed under the Crosslinguistic Child Phonology Project (CLCP-EP). The tool was designed for Portuguese children aged 3 to 6 years old. The current version includes 157 words selected to test different phonological variables considered to be relevant for phonological assessment within the nonlinear phonological framework: segmental inventory; syllabic constituency; word stress; word length. The validation study was based on a naming task (digital visual stimuli) presented in a story-telling format, used to evaluate the adequacy of the pictures and the lexical items.

Introducing facile regenerability into adsorbent materials can potentially increase sustainability in water treatment systems enabled by extended use. Herein, we detail our recent syntheses of dynamic, nanostructured worm-gel materials and their implementation as regenerable adsorbents for water treatment. Photo-controlled atom transfer radical polymerization-induced self-assembly (PhotoATR-PISA) was employed to synthesize various polymer nanstructures, including dispersed spheres, worms, and vesicles, and nanostructured worm-gels, via the synthesis and simultaneous, in situ assembly of BAB triblock copolymers. Two dynamic, disulfide-functionalized macroinitiators (SS-MI-1 and 2) with different degree of polymerization and one non-dynamic macroinitiator (CC-MI) were synthesized via polymerization of oligo(ethylene glycol methyl ether methacrylate) (OEGMA). PhotoATR-PISA was then implemented via the chain extension from SS-MI-1, 2 and CC-MI with glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) or benzyl methacrylate (BMA) forming BAB-type triblock copolymer nanoparticles in situ. The final morphology in PhotoATR-PISA was influenced not only by conventional factors such as solids content and block DP but also by unimer exchange rates yielding arrested, nanostructured worm-gels in many instances and arrested vesicle-gels in one instance. These PISA-gel materials were implemented as adsorbents for phenanthrene, a model compound registered as a priority pollutant by US EPA, from aqueous solutions. The chemical tunability of these materials enabled enhanced, targeted removal of phenanthrene facilitated by π-π interactions as evidenced by the increased adsorption capacities of PBMA-based PISA-gels when compared to PGMA. Furthermore, the dynamicity of disulfide worm-gels (SS-WG) enabled disulfide exchange-induced regeneration stimulated by UV light. This UV-responsive exchange was investigated for POEGMA macroinitiators as well as dissolved triblock copolymers, dispersed nanoparticles and SS-WG materials. Finally, the regenerability of the PNT-saturated SS-WG adsorbents induced by UV irradiation (λ = 365 nm) was examined and compared to control worm-gels without disulfides demonstrating enhanced recovery of adsorption capacity under mild irradiation conditions.

Proteomics analysis, including post-translational modifications (PTMs) of mass-limited samples has become an important method for understanding biological systems in physiologically relevant contexts, such as patient samples and in multicellular organoids and spheroids. There is a growing need to develop ultrasensitive top-down proteomics techniques to provide valuable insights into PTM-regulated cellular functions in mass-limited samples, including single cells. Capillary electrophoresis–mass spectrometry (CE-MS) is a promising technique due to its high resolution and sensitivity compared to liquid chromatography (LC)-based separation techniques. We recently developed “Spray-Capillary”, an electrospray ionization (ESI)-assisted device for quantitative ultralow-volume sampling and online CE-MS analysis. In this study, we present an enhanced spray-capillary-based CE-MS platform using the polyethyleneimine (PEI) coated capillary for ultrasensitive top-down proteomics analysis. Under optimized conditions, we detected >200 proteoforms from 50 pg E. coli lysate, which is approximately one-tenth of the protein mass in a single mammalian cell. Using a nanodroplet-based sample preparation method and our optimized CE-MS platform, we reproducibly detected 867 intact proteoforms in HeLa cells and 711 intact proteoforms in OVCAR-8, a type of ovarian cancer cell (~45 cells per analysis). Overall, our results demonstrate the capability of the Spray-Capillary CE-MS system to perform top-down proteomic analysis on picogram amounts of sample, and this advancement presents the possibility of meaningful top-down proteomic analysis of mass-limited samples down to the level of single mammalian cells.

Single-molecule localization microscopy has proved very promising to unravel the dynamics and molecular architecture of thin biological samples down to the nanoscale. However, achieving meaningful results in complex, thick biological tissues requires shifting the observation wavelengths to the shortwave-infrared (SWIR) region, where biological tissues are most transparent. In consequence, nanomaterials with optical activity in the SWIR exhibiting brightness and photostability suitable for detection at the single-molecule level are needed. Currently mainly single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) satisfy this, but are inherently 1D objects. Here we present 0D ultra-small gold nanoclusters (AuNCs, <3nm) and ~25 nm AuNC-loaded-polymeric particles that can be detected at the single-particle level in the SWIR. Thanks to their high brightness and excellent photostability, we show that the dynamics of the spherical polymeric particles can be followed at the single-particle level in solution at video rates for minutes. Analysis of the mean square displacement confirms the diameter of the particles in aqueous media, and enables us to compare their brightness with that of biocompatible SWCNTs. This extends the library of SWIR emitting nanomaterials to 0D nano-objects of variable size for single-molecule localization microscopy in the second biological window, opening unprecedented possibilities for mapping structure and dynamics of complex biological systems.
Impact of Potential and Active-Site Environment on Single-Iron-Atom Catalyzed Electrochemical CO2 Reduction from Accurate Quantum Many-Body Simulations
Authors: Lei Jincheng , Zhu Tianyu
Published: October 2023

Single iron atoms supported on nitrogen-doped graphene (Fe–N–C) have shown promise in catalyzing electrochemical CO2 to CO reduction with low overpotential and high selectivity. However, the nature of its rate-limiting step and the effect of active-site environment on catalytic activity are still under debate. Previous theoretical studies exclusively rely on density functional theory (DFT), but their predictions are limited by inherent errors in DFT functionals, leading to diverging conclusions on catalytic mechanisms. Herein, we employ an efficient quantum embedding strategy to enable high-level coupled-cluster (CCSD(T)) simulations of the thermodynamics of Fe–N–C catalyzed CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) and its competing hydrogen evolution reaction. Our calculations accurately predict experimental CO binding energy, onset potential, and potential of maximal Faradaic efficiency (FE) with FeN4 as catalytic active site. We find that the rate-limiting step is the formation of *COOH intermediate at low applied potential, which becomes CO2 adsorption and CO desorption at higher potential. Our simulation reveals that the potential-dependent high selectivity of FeN4 originates from higher charge capacity of *COOH compared to *H. Furthermore, our calculations elucidate distinct roles of active-site environments including vacancy defect and nitrogen doping. Particularly, graphitic nitrogen doping simultaneously lowers CO2RR onset potential and allows a wider potential range for high CO FE. This work highlights the importance of robust many-body quantum chemical simulations in achieving quantitative understanding of multi-step electrocatalytic reaction mechanisms.
