Silver/carbon (Ag/C) core-shell nanospheres synthesized by a hydrothermal method were used as templates for fabricating silver nanoparticle-decorated Ag/C (Ag/C/AgNps) nanospheres. The particle size of Ag nanoparticles can be tuned by varying the concentration of Ag precursor. Detection of melamine molecules at concentrations as low as 5.0×10(-8) M shows that the Ag/C/AgNps nanosphere is a good SERS-active substrate. The effect of heavy metal ions on the detection of melamine is also investigated. It was found that the SERS spectrum profile of melamine is very sensitive to the presence of heavy metal ions: the peak positions of the SERS bands exhibit some apparent change with the kind of metal ion, showing a blue or red shift compared with those in the SERS spectrum of melamine; the SERS signal intensity decrease with increasing the concentration of metal ion.

A novel class of SiO aerogel-based resin composite with a self-formed foamy structure and an extremely low thermal conductivity, as well as excellent fire resistance, was fabricated via a room temperature and atmospheric pressure route. The self-formed foamy structure was achieved by utilizing SiO aerogel particles not only as a thermal insulative functional additive filler but also as nano-sized solid particles in a Picking emulsion system, adjusting the surface tension as a stabilizer at the interface between the two immiscible phases (liquid and air in this case). The results of foamy structure analyses via scanning electron microscopy, micro-CT, and N adsorption-desorption isotherms validate the successful generation of a micro-scale porous structure with the enhancement of the aerogel nano-scale solid particles at the wall as a stabilizer.

The synthesis of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with excellent luminescent properties and their effective application in the field of bionic sensing remain a formidable challenge. Herein, a series of COFs with different numbers of hydroxyl groups are successfully synthesized, and the number of hydroxyl groups on the benzene-1,3,5-tricarbaldehyde (BTA) linker influences the properties of the final COFs. The COF (HHBTA-OH) prepared with hydrazine hydrate (HH) and BTA containing one hydroxyl group as the ligands exhibits the best fluorescent performance.

Growing concerns about the health risks of melamine adulteration in food products highlight the urgent need for reliable detection methods. However, the long-term effects of chronic low-level melamine exposure remain inadequately explored. This study introduces THE ONE InstantCare platform, a portable immunoassay analyzer integrating a SpectroChip-based spectral processing unit (SPU) with lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) for sensitive and accurate quantification of melamine in human urine.
