During chemical reactions, especially for electrocatalysis and electrosynthesis, the electric field is the most central driving force to regulate the reaction process. However, due to the difficulty of quantitatively measuring the electric field effects caused at the microscopic level, the regulation of electrocatalytic reactions by electric fields has not been well digitally understood yet. Herein, we took the infrared/Raman spectral signals of CO molecules as descriptors to quantitatively predict the effects of different electric fields on the catalytic properties. Taking the metal-doped graphitic CN (-CN) catalyst as an example, we theoretically investigated the adsorption mode and energy of CO molecules adsorbed on 27 distinct metal single-atom catalysts under different directions and intensities of electric field. Through a machine learning approach, a spectroscopy-property model between infrared/Raman spectral descriptors and adsorption energy/charge transfer was established, which quantified the facilitation of electric field effects on the CO catalytic conversion. Meanwhile, based on the attention mechanism, the catalytic insight of the relationship between spectra and adsorption modes was mined, and the inverse prediction of electric field strength from spectra was realized. This work opens a new quantitative pathway for monitoring and regulating electrocatalytic reactions using machine learning spectroscopy.

Folates comprise a crucial class of biologically active compounds related to folic acid, playing a vital role in numerous enzymatic reactions. One-carbon metabolism, facilitated by the folate cofactor, supports numerous physiological processes, including biosynthesis, amino acid homeostasis, epigenetic maintenance, and redox defense. Folates share a common pterin heterocyclic ring structure capable of undergoing redox reactions and existing in various protonation states.

Studies on Plasmodium falciparum transmission require blood-feeding infectious gametocytes to mosquitoes using standard membrane-feeding assays (SMFAs). SMFAs are routinely performed using electric heating coils or glass membrane feeders connected to a circulatory water bath using tubing and clamps. Each of these approaches is expensive and requires a complex setup, hence restricting the number of assays that can be performed simultaneously.

Aqueous Zn-ion batteries (AZIBs) have attracted widespread attention owing to the feature of low cost, inherent safety and eco-friendliness. However, the poor reversibility of Zn anode severely hinders the practical applicability of AZIBs. Separator modification is an effective way to functionalize the electrode/electrolyte interface and improve the cycling performance.

Induction electric field (IEF) technology is a new green treatment technology based on electric field, and its application has not been widely reported, especially in the direction of soybean protein isolate (SPI) modification. Therefore, IEF and several commonly used physical modification methods were used to investigate the effect on the structure and interfacial properties of SPI. The IEF treatment was found to be superior to the other groups in terms of emulsification performance, solubility and flexibility, which were enhanced by 44.
