()-Ethyl 2-cyano-3-(4'-(diphenyl amino)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl) acrylate (RSJ) is a novel luminogen based on triphenylamine. It has been fully synthesized and characterized, exhibiting an incredible photophysical phenomenon known as aggregation-induced emission (AIE). This work describes a fluorescent sensor that detects vitamin B2 in mixed aqueous media with high selectivity and a low limit of detection as well as a mechanism for reversible mechanochromic luminescence. Moreover, the molecule was validated for its nontoxicity in water using a histotoxicological study. Fish subjected to two different concentrations of the "novel luminogen" that displayed photophysical phenomena during sensing of vitamin B2 (riboflavin) in mixed aqueous media did not exhibit any significant differences in the structural makeup of their liver, kidney, gills, brain, and muscle tissues when compared with the control group.

Understanding the interfacial interaction mechanisms between oil and minerals is of vital importance in the applications of petroleum production and environmental protection. In this work, the interactions of dodecane with mica and calcite in aqueous media were investigated by using the drop probe technique based on atomic force microscopy. For the dodecane-mica interactions, the electrical double layer (EDL) repulsion dominated in 10 mM NaCl solution, and a higher pH facilitated the detachment of dodecane.

Achieving high battery performance from low-cost, easily synthesisable electrode materials is crucial for advancing energy storage technologies. Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) combining inexpensive transition metals and organic ligands are promising candidates for high-capacity cathodes. Iron-chloranilate-water frameworks are herein reported to be produced in aqueous media under mild conditions.

The adsorption of charged clay nanoplatelets plays an important role in stabilizing emulsions by forming a barrier around the emulsion droplets and preventing coalescence. In this work, the adsorption of charged clay nanoplatelets on a preformed Latex microsphere in an aqueous medium is investigated at high temporal resolution using optical tweezer-based single-colloid electrophoresis. Above a critical clay concentration, charged clay nanoplatelets in an aqueous medium self-assemble gradually to form gel-like networks that become denser with increasing medium salinity.

Electropolymerized polypyrrole (PPy) is considered as one of the promising polymers for use in ionic-electroactive or conducting polymer (CP) actuators. Its electromechanical properties surpass those of other prominent CPs such as poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT/PSS) or polyaniline. However, freestanding and linear contracting actuator fibers made solely of electropolymerized PPy are not available yet.

Ampicillin (AMP) ranks third among the top ten most frequently sold antibiotic combinations globally, raising concerns due to its extensive use. Improper disposal practices in agriculture, aquaculture, and healthcare have led to environmental contamination of water sources with elevated AMP levels. Current methods for detecting such contamination are costly, require sophisticated equipment, and depend on skilled personnel and unstable natural receptors.
