Blood compatibility is an eternal topic of biomedical materials. The effect of heparin-mimicking polymers (HMPs) on blood compatibility has been well studied, especially the synergistic effect of sugar unit and sulfonate/sulfate unit. However, carboxylic groups also play an important role in HMPs. In this work, copolymers of sodium 4-vinyl-benzenesulfonate (SS) and 2-methacrylamido glucopyranose (MAG) (poly(SS-co-MAG)) and poly(acrylate acid) (PAA) were self-assembled on Au surfaces with different feed ratios. When self-assembly of poly(SS-co-MAG) alone, the optimized feed ratio of SS and MAG for vascular cell selectivity was 1:1 (PS1M1); at this ratio the Au-PS1M1 surface showed the highest human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) density and the lowest human umbilical vein smooth muscle cells (HUVSMCs) density. When self-assembly of PAA alone (surface designated as Au-PAA), the proliferation of both HUVECs and HUVSMCs was inhibited. Compared with either PS1M1 or PAA alone, the surfaces modified with both PAA and PS1M1 at the feed ratio of 1:1 (material designated as Au-PSM/PAA-2) showed enhanced promoting effect on HUVECs as well as enhanced inhibiting effect on HUVSMCs, indicating stronger vascular cell selectivity of carboxylic groups in the presence of sugar and sulfonate units.

Amino alcohols are vital in natural products, pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, and as key building blocks for various applications. Traditional synthesis methods often rely on polar bond retrosynthetic analysis, requiring extensive protecting group manipulations that complicate direct access. Here we show a streamlined approach using a serine-derived chiral carboxylic acid in stereoselective electrocatalytic decarboxylative transformations, enabling efficient access to enantiopure amino alcohols.

It has been reported some nanozymes could be used as a substitute for natural enzyme to detect HO to some extent. However, the low catalytic effect of these materials limited their further application fields. Hence, to increase the catalytic activity of nanozymes was a hot research topic and many methods have been reported.

CYP105A1 exhibits monooxygenase activity to a wide variety of structurally different substrates with regio- and stereospecificity, making its application range broad. Our previous studies have shown that CYP105A1 wild type and its variants metabolize 12 types of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). In particular, the R84A variant exhibited a high activity against many NSAIDs.

Illite mineral is present in shale rocks, and its wettability behavior is significant for the oil and gas industry. In this work, the pH effects on the affinity between the (001) and (010) crystallographic planes of illite K(SiAl)(AlMg)O(OH) and direct and inverse emulsions were studied using molecular dynamics simulations. To develop the simulations, an atomistic model of illite was constructed following Löwenstein's rule.

Global citrus production has been severely affected by citrus Huanglongbing (HLB) disease, caused by Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (Clas), and the development of effective control methods are crucial. This study employed antimicrobial lipopeptide and phytohormone complex powder (L1) prepared from the fermentation broth of the endophytic plant growth promoting bacterium (PGPB) of strain MG-2 to treat Liberibacter asiaticus (Las)-infected ' 'Chun Jian' plants. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and PCR were employed for disease detection.
