Authors: Mao Lujiao , Qian Jinjie 
Published: December 2023

AbstractMetal–organic frameworks (MOFs), as a subclass of porous crystalline materials with unique structures and multifunctional properties, play a pivotal role in various research domains. In recent years, significant attention has been directed toward composite materials based on MOFs, particularly MOF‐on‐MOF heterostructures. Compared to individual MOF materials, MOF‐on‐MOF structures harness the distinctive attributes of two or more different MOFs, enabling synergistic effects and allowing for the tailored design of diverse multilayered architectures to expand their application scope. However, the rational design and facile synthesis of MOF‐on‐MOF composite materials are in principle challenging due to the structural diversity and the intricate interfaces. Hence, this review primarily focuses on elucidating the factors that influence their interfacial growth, with a specific emphasis on the interfacial engineering of heterogeneous reactions, in which MOF‐on‐MOF hybrids can be conveniently obtained by using pre‐fabricated MOF precursors. These factors are categorized as internal and external elements, encompassing inorganic metals, organic ligands, lattice matching, nucleation kinetics, thermodynamics, etc. Meanwhile, these intriguing MOF‐on‐MOF materials offer a wide range of advantages in various application fields, such as adsorption, separation, catalysis, and energy‐related applications. Finally, this review highlights current complexities and challenges while providing a forward‐looking perspective on future research directions.

AbstractGraphene solution‐gated field‐effect transistors (gSGFETs) offer high potential for chemical and biochemical sensing applications. Among the current trends to improve this technology, the functionalization processes are gaining relevance for its crucial impact on biosensing performance. Previous efforts are focused on simplifying the attachment procedure from standard multi‐step to single‐step strategies, but they still suffer from overreaction, and impurity issues and are limited to a particular ligand. Herein, a novel strategy for single‐step immobilization of chemically modified aptamers with fluorenylmethyl and acridine moieties, based on a straightforward synthetic route to overcome the aforementioned limitations is presented. This approach is benchmarked versus a standard multi‐step strategy using thrombin as detection model. In order to assess the reliability of the functionalization strategies 48‐gSGFETs arrays are employed to acquire large datasets with multiple replicas. Graphene surface characterization demonstrates robust and higher efficiency in the chemical coupling of the aptamers with the single‐step strategy, while the electrical response evaluation validates the sensing capability, allowing to implement different alternatives for data analysis and reduce the sensing variability. In this work, a new tool capable of overcome the functionalization challenges of graphene surfaces is provided, paving the way toward the standardization of gSGFETs for biosensing purposes.
Influence of Sphericity on Surface Termination of Icosahedral Colloidal Clusters

Published: December 2023

AbstractColloids self‐organize into icosahedral clusters composed of a Mackay core and an anti‐Mackay shell under spherical confinement to minimize the free energy. This study explores the variation of surface arrangements of colloids in icosahedral clusters, focusing on the determining factors behind the surface arrangement. To efficiently assemble particles in emulsion droplets, droplet‐to‐droplet osmotic extraction from particle‐laden droplets to salt‐containing droplets is used, where the droplets are microfluidically prepared to guarantee a high size uniformity. The icosahedral clusters are optimally produced during a 24‐h consolidation period at a 0.04 m salt concentration. The findings reveal an increase in the number of particle layers from 10 to 15 in the icosahedral clusters as the average number of particles increases from 3300 to 11 000. Intriguingly, the number of layers in the anti‐Mackay shells, or surface termination, appears to more strongly depend on the sphericity of the clusters than on the deviation in the particle count from an ideal icosahedral cluster. This result suggests that the sphericity of the outermost layer, formed by the late‐stage rearrangement of particles to form an anti‐Mackay shell near the droplet interface, may play a pivotal role in determining the surface morphology to accommodate a spherical interface.

Published: December 2023

AbstractAs for tetrahedron‐based ultraviolet nonlinear optical crystals, it is so difficult to achieve a sufficient birefringence to satisfy the phase‐matching condition. Thereover, it is necessary to greatly increase the polarizability anisotropy of tetrahedra. Meanwhile, the tetrahedra should be arranged as uniformly as possible. Based on these ideas, a new strategy that dimerizes the heteroleptic tetrahedra with heteroleptic atoms as bridges is proposed and implemented, resulting in a new compound, Na2S3O6, which crystallizes in a centrosymmetric monoclinic phase (phase‐I) and a non‐centrosymmetric orthorhombic one (phase‐II). In the phase‐I, a large birefringence of 0.103 @ 546 nm comparable to those of many triangle‐based crystals is confirmed experimentally, indicating the ability of [S3O6] group in improving the birefringence. Besides, the phase‐II exhibits an improved birefringence of 0.056 @ 546 nm and a moderate second harmonic generation response of 1.4 × KH2PO4. In particular, the phase‐II exhibits a typical phase‐matching behavior under the irradiation of 532 nm laser. Moreover, the excellent optical properties of [S3O6] group are further verified by theoretical calculations. These results completely illustrate the validity of the design strategy. Therefore, this work lights a new route for exploring novel ultraviolet nonlinear optical crystals.

Published: December 2023

AbstractThe microstructure of hard carbons (HCs) including interlayer distance and lateral ab direction and pore size distribution plays a key role in regulating the sodium ions storage performance. Herein, by employing the gelatinous agar as a model precursor, series P‐doping HCs (P‐HC‐x, x = 1, 2, 3, 4) are facilely prepared in batches via controllably regulating its crosslinking state by phytic acid (PA) at a low carbonization temperature of 750 °C, in which PA plays three roles (acid, flame retardant, and P‐doping precursor) in promoting the final structure of P‐HC‐x. Among those, the puparium like P‐HC‐2 with expanded carbon interlayer distance of 3.91 Å and shortened lateral ab direction of 9.4 nm delivers a high reversible capacity of 394 mAh g−1 at 0.1 A g−1 with high increased slope capacity of 363 mAh g−1 as well as an ultrafast charge‐discharge feature and a superlong cycle life. Pairing with the Na3V2(PO4)3 cathode, the fabricated sodium‐ion full cells exhibit the 132 mAh g−1 reversible capacity at 0.1 A g−1, and 86% capacity retention after 100 cycles. This work successfully develops slope‐dominated high‐performance carbon anode, which will provide new insights for the microstructure regulation and design of other precursor‐derivedHCs.

AbstractMild aqueous Zn batteries (AZBs) generally suffer a low‐voltage/energy dilemma, which compromises their competitiveness for large‐scale energy storage. Pushing Zn anode potential downshift is an admissible yet underappreciated approach for high‐voltage/energy AZBs. Herein, with a mild hybrid electrolyte containing in situ‐derived diluted strongly‐coordinated Zn2+‐cosolvent pairs, a considerable Zn anode potential downshift is initially achieved for high‐voltage Zn‐based hybrid batteries. The chosen butylpyridine cosolvent not only strongly coordinates Zn2+ ions but also acts as a hydrogen‐bond end‐capping agent to inhibit hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The electrolyte environment with hetero‐solvation‐diluted strongly‐coordinated Zn2+‐cosolvent pairs remarkably lowers Zn2+ activity, responsible for the Zn electrode potential downshift (−0.330 V vs Zn), confirming to modified Nernst law (ΔE = ln[a(Zn2 + )/a(coordinated solvent)]). With the diluted Zn2+‐containing hybrid electrolyte, the Zn//Zn symmetric cell in the hybrid electrolyte shows a long lifespan over 1270 h at a stripping/plating capacity of 0.4 mA h cm−2. Compared with in common hybrid electrolytes, the as‐assembled Zn‐MnO2 hybrid battery delivers a ca. 0.278 V enhanced voltage plateau (1.57 V) and a long‐term cyclability of over 736 cycles. This work opens a new avenue toward Zn anode potential downshift for high‐voltage AZBs, which can extend to other mild metal batteries.

Published: December 2023

AbstractAn efficient analytical method has been developed based on dispersive solid‐phase extraction followed by gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry for the determinations of 13 organochlorine pesticides in fruit juice samples. In this method, dispersive solid phase extraction was used for the extraction of target analye using iron‐doped zinc oxide nanoparticles supported with silica as a sorbent. Different experimental parameters affecting the extraction efficiencies the proposed method were carefully optimized. Under the optimum conditions, the calibration graphs were linear in the concentration range of 0.6–100 ng/mL with coefficients of determinations in the range of 0.9927–0.9991. The limits of detection and quantification determined as 3 and 10 times the signal‐to‐noise ratio were in the range of 0.01–0.03 and 0.6–1.0 ng/mL, respectively. Intra‐ and inter‐day precision studies of the proposed method, expressed as relative standard deviations, were in the range of 2.1%–9.2% and 2.2%–9.7%, respectively. The recoveries of the spiked fruit juices samples were in the range of 81.4%–105.1% with the corresponding relative standard deviations ranging from 1.0%–8.8%. In general, the proposed method demonstrated satisfactory analytical performance. Thus,it could be used as simple and attracive alternative method for the extraction of organochlorine pesticides from fruit juice sample and other related matrices.
Chemical tolerance related to the ABC transporter gene and DNA methylation in cladocera (Daphnia magna)
Authors: Ishimota Makoto , Kodama Mebuki , Tomiyama Naruto , Ohyama Kazutoshi 
Published: December 2023

AbstractWe performed multigenerational tests to clarify the chemical tolerance mechanisms of a nontarget aquatic organism, Daphnia magna. We continuously exposed D. magna to a carbamate insecticide (pirimicarb) at lethal or sublethal concentrations (0, 3.8, 7.5, and 15 μg/L) for 15 generations (F0‐F14). We then determined the 48 h‐EC50 values and mRNA expression levels of acetylcholinesterase, glutathione S‐transferase, and ATP (Adenosine triphosphate)‐binding cassette transporter (ABCt) in neonates (<24 h old) from F0, F4, F9, and F14. To ascertain the effects of DNA methylation on pirimicarb sensitivity, we measured 5‐methylcytosine levels (DNA methylation levels) in neonates of parents in the last generation (F14). In addition, we cultured groups exposed to 0 and 7.5 μg/L (the latter of which acquired chemical tolerance to pirimicarb) with or without 5‐azacytidine (de‐methylating agent) and determined methylation levels and 48 h‐EC50 values in neonates (<24 h old) from the treated parents. The EC50 values (30.3–31.6 μg/L) in F14 of the 7.5 and 15 μg/L groups were approximately two times higher than that in the control (16.0 μg/L). A linear mixed model analysis showed that EC50 and ABCt mRNA levels were significantly increased with generational alterations; further analysis showed that the ABCt mRNA level was positively related to the EC50. Therefore, ABCt may be associated with altered pirimicarb sensitivity. In addition, the EC50 value and DNA methylation levels in pirimicarb‐tolerant clones decreased after exposure to 5‐azacytidine, suggesting that DNA methylation contributes to chemical tolerance. These findings improved our knowledge regarding the acquisition of chemical tolerance in aquatic organisms.
Climate justice and territory
Authors: Mancilla Alejandra , Baard Patrik 
Published: December 2023

AbstractThe territorial impacts of climate change will affect millions. This will happen not only as a direct consequence of climate change, but also because of policies for mitigating it—for example, through the installation of large wind and solar farms, the conservation of land in its role as carbon sink, and the extraction of materials needed for renewable energy technologies. In this article, we offer an overview of the justice‐related issues that these impacts create. The literature on climate justice and territory is vast and spans a range of disciplines, so we limit our discussion to a specific understanding of territory and a specific understanding of injustice that arises from its loss. We understand territory as a normative concept that describes a place under some agent's jurisdiction, where the agent is a politically organized collective and where the jurisdictional rights over that place secure a relevant degree of self‐determination for that collective. Accordingly, we consider that the main injustice connected to the loss of territory due to climate change is the loss or undermining of the ability to exercise the collective right to self‐determination, which requires some control over the place. This can happen if a territorial agent literally loses the ground where to stand as a direct effect of climate change, raising issues of justice in relocation; or if their place changes due to mitigation policies, affecting their use and understanding of territory, raising issues of justice in energy transition. In concluding, we point to topics for future research.This article is categorized under:

Nanotechnology‐mediated photodynamic therapy: Focus on overcoming tumor hypoxia
Authors: Moloudi Kave , Abrahamse Heidi , George Blassan P. 
Published: December 2023

AbstractThe oxygen level in the tumor is a critical marker that determines response to different treatments. Cancerous cells can adapt to hypoxia and low pH conditions within the tumor microenvironment (TME) to regulate tumor metabolism, proliferation, and promote tumor metastasis as well as angiogenesis, consequently leading to treatment failure and recurrence. In recent years, widespread attempts have been made to overcome tumor hypoxia through different methods, such as hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), hyperthermia, O2 carriers, artificial hemoglobin, oxygen generator hydrogels, and peroxide materials. While oxygen is found to be an essential agent to improve the treatment response of photodynamic therapy (PDT) and other cancer treatment modalities, the development of hypoxia within the tumor is highly associated with PDT failure. Recently, the use of nanoparticles has been a hot topic for researchers and exploited to overcome hypoxia through Oxygen‐generating hydrogels, O2 nanocarriers, and O2‐generating nanoparticles. This review aimed to discuss the role of nanotechnology in tumor oxygenation and highlight the challenges, prospective, and recent advances in this area to improve PDT outcomes.This article is categorized under:

Zero sound and higher-form symmetries in compressible holographic phases
Authors: Davison Richard A. , Goutéraux Blaise , Mefford Eric 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Certain holographic states of matter with a global U(1) symmetry support a sound mode at zero temperature, caused neither by spontaneous symmetry breaking of the global U(1) nor by the emergence of a Fermi surface in the infrared. In this work, we show that such a mode is also found in zero density holographic quantum critical states. We demonstrate that in these states, the appearance of a zero temperature sound mode is the consequence of a mixed ‘t Hooft anomaly between the global U(1) symmetry and an emergent higher-form symmetry. At non-zero temperatures, the presence of a black hole horizon weakly breaks the emergent symmetry and gaps the collective mode, giving rise to a sharp Drude-like peak in the electric conductivity. A similar gapped mode arises at low temperatures for non-zero densities when the state has an emergent Lorentz symmetry, also originating from an approximate anomalous higher-form symmetry. However, in this case the collective excitation does not survive at zero temperature where, instead, it dissolves into a branch cut due to strong backreaction from the infrared, critical degrees of freedom. We comment on the relation between our results and the application of the Luttinger theorem to compressible holographic states of matter.
Cohomology of semisimple local systems and the decomposition theorem
Authors: Wei Chuanhao , Yang Ruijie 
Published: December 2023

AbstractIn this paper, we study the cohomology of semisimple local systems in the spirit of classical Hodge theory. On the one hand, we construct a generalized Weil operator from the complex conjugate of the cohomology of a semisimple local system to the cohomology of its dual local system, which is functorial with respect to smooth restrictions. This operator allows us to study the Poincaré pairing, usually not positive definite, in terms of a positive definite Hermitian pairing. On the other hand, we prove a global invariant cycle theorem for semisimple local systems. As an application, we give a new proof of Sabbah’s Decomposition Theorem for the direct images of semisimple local systems under proper algebraic maps, by adapting the method of de Cataldo-Migliorini, without using the category of polarizable twistor$${\mathscr {D}}$$D-modules. This answers a question of Sabbah.
Narbenhernien: Epidemiologie, Evidenz und Leitlinien
Authors: Fortelny R.H. , Dietz U. 
Published: December 2023

Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund
Aus epidemiologischer Sicht erfolgt bei einem Drittel der Bevölkerung in den Industrieländern im Laufe des Lebens eine abdominelle Operation. Je nach Grad des patientInnen- wie auch eingriffsbezogenen Risikos ist das Auftreten von Narbenhernien in einem Bereich von bis zu 30 % im 2‑Jahres-Follow-up und sogar bis zu 60 % nach 5 Jahren verbunden. Neben den beeinflussenden Komorbiditäten ist die Art des chirurgischen Zuganges und die Verschlusstechnik von entscheidender Bedeutung.

Ziel
Die deskriptive Darstellung einer evidenzbasierten Empfehlung zum Verschluss der Bauchdecke sowie einer prophylaktischen Netzaugmentation.

Material und Methoden
Unter Einbeziehung der aktuellen Literatur und der bestehenden Leitlinien wurde eine übersichtliche Zusammenfassung erstellt.

Ergebnisse
Das bekannte Risiko für das Auftreten von Narbenhernien gilt bei Vorliegen von Adipositas und Erkrankungen der Bauchaorta nach neuesten Studien auch für PatientInnen mit einem kolorektalen Eingriff und Vorliegen einer Rektusdiastase. Auf Basis hochrangig publizierter Daten ist die Kurzstichtechnik bei Laparotomien der Mittellinie im elektiven Setting mit hoher Evidenz als Standardverfahren zu bezeichnen. PatientInnen mit erhöhtem Risikoprofil sollten neben der Kurzstichtechnik eine prophylaktische Netzverstärkung, sei es in Onlay- oder Sublay-Technik, erhalten. Bei Notfalllaparotomien muss das individuelle Infektionsrisiko bezüglich der angewendeten Verschlusstechnik einbezogen werden.

Schlussfolgerung
Die Vermeidung von Narbenhernien ist in erster Linie durch den minimal-invasiven Zugang der Laparoskopie zu erzielen. Zum Verschluss des am häufigsten angewendeten Mittellinienzuganges ist die Kurzstichtechnik und bei bestehenden Risikofaktoren zusätzlich eine Netzaugmentation zu empfehlen.
