Published: December 1987

A novel nitrilotriacetic acid adsorbent has been prepared for metal chelate affinity chromatography. The new resin is a quadridentate chelate former and specially suitable for metal ions with coordination numbers of six, since two valencies remain for the reversible binding of biopolymers. It has been found to chelate Cu2+ and Ni2+ strongly and to be superior to the known iminodiacetic acid adsorbent. Charged with Ni2+, it was evaluated for the ability to bind peptides and proteins containing neighbouring histidine residues. The remarkable specificity found makes it an attractive addition to the range of adsorbents for metal chelate affinity chromatography.

This study presents the characterization of a novel multilayered three-dimensional (3D) polymer exhibiting aggregation-induced emission (AIE) properties when excited at a low wavelength of 280 nm. Utilizing fluorescence spectroscopy, we demonstrate that the polymer displays a marked enhancement in luminescence upon aggregation, a characteristic behavior that distinguishes AIE-active materials from conventional fluorophores. Furthermore, we explore the potential application of this multilayered 3D polymer as a fluorescent probe for the selective detection of specified metal ions.

Fe-loaded red radish anthocyanin (RRA) and zein composite nanoparticles (FZNPs) were firstly prepared to enhance the color and stability of RRA. The addition of Fe caused anthocyanin to form color chelates, enhancing its pH color sensitivity. The prepared FZNPs showed good stability and anthocyanin retention during long-term storage.

Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhagic stroke (ICH) is a highly aggressive disease, with a high incidence and mortality rate. Iron deposition following ICH leads to oxidative damage and motor dysfunction, significantly impacting the overall quality of life for those affected. Here, a polyphenolic nanomedicine, catechin-based polyphenol nanoparticles surface-modified by thiol-terminated poly(ethylene glycol) (CNPs@PEG), was developed through the oxidative polymerization and self-assembly of catechin, a natural compound in tea.

Enzyme-instructed signal generation at liquid-liquid interfaces presents a novel strategy for controlling and detecting biochemical processes on macroscopic scales. Here, we explore the self-assembly and jamming of pillar[5]arene (P[5]A) derivatives at the oil-water interface via a copper-mediated "click" reaction, providing a versatile platform for generating observable signals. The formation of a pillar[5]arenes network at the droplet interface reduces interfacial tension, allowing droplets to adopt various nonequilibrium shapes based on the interfacial jamming process.

Traditional Chinese Medicine-Based Nanoformulations for Enhanced Photothermal Therapy of Cancer.

Photothermal therapy (PTT) has shown promise in the ablation of small, unresectable tumors by boosting the tumor's temperature above 50 °C. However, the high local temperature-induced cancer cell necrosis could create severe local inflammation, which may deteriorate normal tissues and increase tumor spreading. Although mild photothermal therapy (MPTT) at 42-45 °C could avoid the undesired side effect to some extent with minimal nonspecific heat diffusion, the self-protective behavior of tumors during MPTT results in an unsatisfactory therapeutic effect.
