Using small molecules to integrate multifunctional surfaces within a nanopore is an effective way to endow smart responsibilities of nanofluidic diodes. However, the complex synthesis of the small molecules hinders their further application in achieving multifunctional surfaces. Here, a simple and versatile design concept is reported for fabricating bioinspired integrated nanofluidic diodes with adjustable surface chemistry by confining a spirocyclic fluorescein derivative, 6-aminofluorescein (6-AF), within an asymmetric track-etched nanopore.

Electrosynthesis of hydrogen peroxide (HO) via two-electron oxygen reduction reaction (2e ORR) is a promising alternative to the anthraquinone oxidation process. To improve the overall energy efficiency and economic viability of this catalytic process, one pathway is to develop advanced catalysts to decrease the overpotential at the cathode, and the other is to couple 2e ORR with certain anodic reactions to decrease the full cell voltage while producing valuable chemicals on both electrodes. The catalytic performance of a 2e ORR catalyst depends not only on the material itself but also on the environmental factors.

The importance of mitochondrial function in macrophages is well established. Alveolar macrophages (AMs), the tissue-resident macrophages (TRMs) of the lung, are particularly dependent on mitochondria-driven oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) to support their functions and maintain homeostasis. However, the specific genes and pathways that regulate OXPHOS in AMs remain unclear.

Metal ion-doped organic-inorganic hybrid metal halides have emerged as promising room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials owing to their tunable afterglow properties and significant potential in information security applications. However, optimizing RTP performance and achieving dynamic control over afterglow colors remain challenging in 1D hybrid systems, primarily because of the inefficient energy transfer from RTP-active organic components to external emissive sites. Herein, we report a novel 1D hybrid metal halide benchmark material, [(NBP)CdClHO] (NBP-Cd, NBP = -benzylpiperidone), and a series of Mn-doped derivatives, NBP-Cd:Mn (where represents doping levels from 1% to 50%).

The anammox bacteria " Kuenenia stuttgartiensis" ( Kuenenia) are able to gain energy by combining ammonium and nitrite to produce nitrogen gas, which is an ecologically and technically significant activity process. In this reaction, nitric oxide serves as a recognized intermediate in the reduction of nitrite, which is subsequently combined with ammonium to produce hydrazine. However, the enzyme that converts nitrite to nitric oxide remains elusive.
