In this article, a modified paper separation channel SERS substrate was fabricated by a pen writing method for the simultaneous separation and detection of thiuram and dimethoate. The hydrophilic channel was fabricated with both sides of hydrophobic barrier by the Alkylketene dimer (AKD) modified paper substrate, of which the flow dynamic was well conformed to the Lucas-Washburn model and could be used to separate pesticides effectively. As modified by Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) and ZnO nanoparticles (ZnONPs), the hydrophilic channel exhibited high recyclable SERS detection activity and stability. The separation and detection performance with different target proportion, channel width and sample volume were studied in detail, which have significant influence on the diffusion process. Additionally, the Raman detects intensity on the substrate also showed linear relationship from 100 to 1000 μg/L. The calculated limit of detects (LODs) under optimal experimental conditions were 54.57 and 19.16 μg/L for dimethoate and thiuram, respectively. Due to the loading of ZnONPs, the substrate could be used repeatably with good stability. The convenient preparation, effective separation and repeatability make this paper based separation channel SERS substrate have great potential application on the fast separation and simultaneous detection of various pesticides in complex field.

ConspectusCovalent triazine frameworks (CTFs) are a novel class of nitrogen-rich conjugated porous organic materials constructed by robust and functional triazine linkages, which possess unique structures and excellent physicochemical properties. They have demonstrated broad application prospects in gas/molecular adsorption and separation, catalysis, energy conversion and storage, etc. In particular, crystalline CTFs with well-defined periodic molecular network structures and regular pore channels can maximize the utilization of the features of CTFs and promote a deep understanding of the structure-property relationship.

Multiple channels are designed for dimmable LED light sources with color temperatures ranging from 2,700 to 6,500 K. However, issues such as Delta uv (D) values <0, lower brightness, luminous efficacy, and color rendering index (CRI), lower power density, exceeding the standard deviation of color matching (SDCM), unconstant power, poor color consistencies, and high costs persist. We present a three-channel LED light source featuring an integrated chip-on-board (COB) package structure.

The precise organization of the complex set of synaptic proteins at the nanometer scale is crucial for synaptic transmission. At the heart of this nanoscale architecture lies the nanocolumn. This aligns presynaptic neurotransmitter release with a high local density of postsynaptic receptor channels, thereby optimizing synaptic strength.

Intra-Mesopore Immunoassay Based on Core-Shell Structured Magnetic Hierarchically Porous ZIFs.

It is crucial yet challenging to sensitively quantify low-abundance biomarkers in blood for early screening and diagnosis of various diseases. Herein, an analytical model of intra-mesopore immunoassay (IMIA) was proposed, which was competent to examine various biomarkers at the femtomolar level. The success is rooted in the design of an innovative superparamagnetic core-shell structure with FeO nanoparticles (NPs) at the core and hierarchically porous zeolitic imidazolate frameworks as a shell (FeO@HPZIF-8), achieved through a soft-template directed self-assembly coupled with confinement growth mechanism.

Microfluidic purification of genomic DNA.

We describe a microfluidic device to extract DNA from a cell lysate, without the need for centrifuges, magnetic beads, or gels. Instead, separation is driven by transverse migration of DNA, which occurs when a polyelectrolyte solution flowing through a microfluidic channel is subjected to an electric field. The coupling of the weak shearing with the axial electric field is highly selective for long, flexible, charged molecules, of which DNA is the sole example in a typical cell lysate.
