Poly(styrene sulfonic acid) membranes (Neosepta CMX, Tokuyama Corp.) have been modified by in situ polymerization of aniline. (NH4)2S2O8, FeCl3, H2O2, and KIO3 were used as oxidizing agents, and two different modification methods (single-step versus two-step) were studied. The composite membranes were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, elemental analysis, electrodialysis, ion-exchange capacity, and conductivity measurements. Our results demonstrate that it is possible to control the polymerization site of aniline which in turn affects the membrane selectivity properties. Hence, composite membranes having a very thin and homogeneous surface polyaniline layer lead to a very low transport of Zn 2+ without increasing significantly the resistance to H+ conductivity. On the other hand, membranes containing about the same quantity of PANI but inside the membrane do not block the transport of Zn 2+.

Enzyme-based portable amperometric biosensors are precise and low-cost medical devices used for rapid cancer biomarker screening. Sarcosine (Sar) is an ideal biomarker for prostate cancer (PCa). Because human serum and urine contain complex interfering substances that can directly oxidize at the electrode surface, rapid Sar screening biosensors are relatively challenging and have rarely been reported.

High locoregional recurrence rates and potential wound infections remain a significant challenge for postoperative breast cancer patients. Herein, we developed a dual-network hyaluronic acid (HA) nanocomposite hydrogel composed of herring sperm DNA (hsDNA) bridged methacrylated HA (HAMA) and FeMg-LDH-ppsa nanohybrid chelated catechol-modified HA (HADA) for the prevention of breast cancer recurrent, anti-infection, and promoting wound healing. Dynamic reversible hsDNA cross-linking combined with metal-catechol chelating renders the hydrogel injectability, rapid self-healing ability, and enhanced mechanical properties.

The DPE-based chromophores exhibit a large Stokes shift and maintain good fluorescence quantum yields. Remarkably, these chromophores demonstrate reversible colourimetric changes and a fluorometric 'on-off-on' switch in response to pH variations.

A highly sensitive aptamer sensor (aptasensor) is proposed based on metal-organic frameworks-silver nanoparticles (AgNPs@MOF) to detect sulfadimethoxine (SDM) by surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). AgNPs@MOF with SERS activity was successfully fabricated by synthesizing AgNPs in situ on the surface of MIL-101(Fe), and SDM aptamer and Raman reporter 4-aminophenthiophenol (4-ATP) were selected as specific recognition elements and signal probes, respectively. When SDM was absent, the SDM aptamers were effectively adsorbed on the surface of AgNPs@MOF, thus keeping AgNPs@MOF in a dispersed state, resulting in a weakened SERS signal of 4-ATP.

The burgeoning field of materials science is currently witnessing a paradigm shift toward the utilization of renewable plant biomass as a viable chemical source for the production of sustainable materials. This trend is substantiated by a significant corpus of recent experimental and theoretical research focused on the synthesis and property analysis of such polymers. Within this context, polybenzoxazines stand out as a pioneering class of thermosetting polymers, distinguished by their exceptional thermal and mechanical characteristics, coupled with the feasibility of synthesizing their precursor monomers from eco-friendly, renewable resources, including plant phenols and furfurylamine.
