Published: July 2016

The N-doped porous carbon monoliths prepared by direct carbonization of IRMOF-3, through an in situ activation and self-templating process, were found to exhibit significantly enhanced performance for the selective adsorption of CO2 compared to pristine IRMOF-3. The transformation from the microporous structure to the meso-macroporous structure opens the pathway for CO2 to more easily access the nitrogen anchors.

Exosomes, which are considered nanoscale extracellular vesicles (EVs), are secreted by various cell types and widely distributed in different biological fluids. They consist of multifarious bioactive molecules and use systematic circulation for their transfer to adjoining cells. This phenomenon enables exosomes to take part in intercellular and intracellular communications.

Exploring host-guest interactions to regulate hydrogen-bonding assembly offers a promising approach for developing advanced porous crystal materials (PCMs). However, screening compatible guests with appropriate geometries and host-guest interactions that could inhibit the dense packing of building blocks remains a primary challenge. This study presents a novel guest-induced crystallization (GIC) strategy, guided by thermodynamic calculations, to develop porous hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) using structurally challenging tetrazole building units.

We present here a passive and label-free droplet microfluidic platform to sort cells stepwise by lactate and proton secretion from glycolysis. A technology developed in our lab, Sorting by Interfacial Tension (SIFT), sorts droplets containing single cells into two populations based on pH by using interfacial tension. Cellular glycolysis lowers the pH of droplets through proton secretion, enabling passive selection based on interfacial tension and hence single-cell glycolysis.

The electrooxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) has been deeply investigated. However, developing a durable electrocatalyst for fast production of FDCA at low potentials remains a challenge. Herein, we report NiP-NiSe heterostructure nanosheet arrays as efficient electrocatalysts for HMF electrooxidation.
