Purpose: Supersaturated formulations have been widely explored for improving the oral bioavailability of drugs by using mesoporous silica (MS) to generate supersaturation via molecular adsorption; however, this is followed by precipitation. Several precipitation inhibitors (PI) have been explored to prevent precipitation and maintain the drug in solution for a longer period. However, the combined approach of MS and PIs, the impact of MS and Silica, and the loading of high-molecular-weight neutral molecules such as Cyclosporine A (CsA) have not yet been explored.

This systematic study delves into the synthesis and characterization of robust bi-functional aminopropyl-tagged periodic mesoporous organosilica with a high loading of small imidazolium bridges in its framework (PrNH@R-PMO-IL, ∼2 mmol g of IL). The materials proved to be a reliable and enduring support for the immobilization of Ru species, demonstrating strong performance and excellent selectivity in the -bromination of various derivatives of 2-phenylpyridine compounds and other heterocycles, showcasing its effectiveness and robust nature. The synthesized materials were thoroughly characterized to determine their structural properties, such as pore size distribution, loading of organic groups, and surface area, using various analytical techniques.

Effective vaccination is crucial for intervening in the COVID-19 pandemic. However, with the continuous mutation of the SARS-CoV-2, existing vaccines including subunit vaccines cannot effectively prevent virus infections. Hence, there is an urgent need to enhance the immunogenicity of existing vaccines to induce a more potent and durable immune response.

We report the synthesis of multifunctional periodic mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles (PMO NPs) with substantial two-photon absorption properties and targeting capability for two-photon excitation fluorescence (TPEF) and photodynamic therapy (TPE-PDT). Prepared using an adapted sol-gel synthesis, the nanoplatforms integrated two silylated chromophores in their three-dimensional matrix to maximize non-radiative Förster resonance energy transfer from a high two-photon absorption fluorophore donor to a porphyrin derivative acceptor, leading to an enhanced generation of reactive oxygen species. Combinations of biodegradable and non-biodegradable bis(triethoxysilyl)alkoxysilanes were employed for the synthesis of the NPs, and the corresponding photophysical studies revealed high efficiency levels of FRET.

Electroreduction of CO2 to CO represents a highly promising way for artificial carbon cycling, but obtaining high selectivity over a wide potential window remains a challenge due to the sluggish CO generation and diffusion kinetics. Here we report an integration of long-range P modified asymmetrical bismuth atomic site on an ordered macroporous carbon skeleton with mesoporous "wall" (MW-BiN3-POMC) for efficient electroreduction of CO2. In-depth in-situ investigations with theoretical computations reveal that the incorporation of long-range P atom is able to strengthen the orbital interaction between the C 2p of CO2 and Bi 6p, thereby establishing an electronic transport bridge for the activation of CO2 molecule.
