Background: High field (1)H and (51)V NMR spectroscopies were employed to determine the oxidation state and complexation status of vanadium ions in intact osteoarthritic knee-joint synovial fluid (OA SF) when pre-added as V(III)((aq.)), V(IV)((aq.)) and V(V)((aq.)).
Methods: Aliquots of each vanadium solution were added to the SF samples and their (1)H NMR spectra recorded. (51)V NMR spectra were also recorded for the samples to which V(III)((aq.)) had been added. Theoretical computer simulations of the competitive complexation of vanadium ions by a range of low-molecular-mass biomolecules were also performed.
Results: The spectroscopic results demonstrated that addition of vanadium ions to intact OA SF gave rise to their complexation by a range of low-molecular-mass biomolecules. The results indicated the physiologically-significant complexing abilities of histidine, threonine, glycine, tyrosine and citrate for each of the added metal ions. The computer simulations revealed that the relative capacity of OA SF complexants to compete for available V(III), V(IV) and V(V) ions reflected the thermodynamic stability constants for such complexes and their available concentrations in this biofluid.
Conclusions: Since comparatively low concentrations of added metal ion are required to selectively influence spectral properties, the "speciation" of prostheses-derived metal ions in biofluids and tissues can be ascertained through the facile employment of high resolution NMR spectroscopy.

The oxidation states of vanadium determine its mobility and toxicity, and dissimilatory vanadate reduction has been reported in several microorganisms, highlighting the potential significance of this pathway in the remediation of vanadium contamination and the biogeochemical cycle. However, to date, most known microorganisms capable of reducing vanadate are Gram-negative respiratory bacteria belonging to the phylum Proteobacteria. In this study, we isolated Tepidibacter mesophilus strain VROV1 from deep-sea sediments on the northern Central Indian Ridge and investigated its ability to reduce vanadium and the impact of vanadate on its cellular metabolism.

Basaltic glass was prepared via the solid-state melt method, using Ce to simulate tetravalent actinides. The structure, thermal stability and leaching characteristics of basaltic glass with different contents of CeO were investigated. The XRD/SEM-EDX/Raman results showed that the simulated waste loading of CeO in basaltic glass reached ~ 18 wt%, and CeO crystals precipitated when the CeO content reached 20 wt%.

NaV(PO), based on multi-electron reactions between V/V/V, is a promising cathode material for SIBs. However, its practical application is hampered by the inferior conductivity, large barrier of V/V, and stepwise phase transition. Herein, these issues are addressed by constructing a medium-entropy material (NaVTiAlCrMnNi(PO), ME-NVP) with strong ME─O bond and highly occupied Na2 sites.

A novel dual-mode microfluidic sensing platform integrating photoelectrochemical (PEC) and fluorescence (FL) sensors was developed for the sensitive monitoring of heart fatty acid binding protein (h-FABP). First, BiVO/AgInS (BVAIS) composites with excellent photoelectric activity were synthesized as sensing matrices. The BVAIS heterojunction with a well-matched internal energy level structure provided a stable photocurrent.

Compared with widely established monovalent-ion batteries, aqueous multivalent-ion batteries promise higher capacity release by achieving multiple electron-transfer events per ion intercalation in the host material. Despite plausibility, this high-capacity dream is untenable with the total tolerable redox charge-transfer limit of the host material for all carrier species equally, which is historically assumed to depend on the material rather than the guest carrier itself, and the kinetic hysteresis induced by larger charge/radius ratios induced kinetic hysteresis further enlarges the divide. Herein, we report that copper carrier redox in vanadium sulfide (VS) exceeds the intrinsic intercalation capacity boundary, with the highest capacity release as 675 mAh g at 0.
