Traditional organic light-emitting materials hinder their anti-counterfeiting application in solid state due to their aggregation-caused quenching effect. A facile and straightforward method was reported to introduce AIE molecules into microspheres and manipulate different reaction parameters to prepare AIE microspheres with different morphologies. In this strategy, fluorescent microspheres with spherical, apple-shaped, and hemoglobin-like types were synthesized. Driven by the photocyclization and oxidation of tetraphenylethene, microspheres can be used as an aqueous fluorescence ink with erasable properties. The fluorescent patterns printed by microsphere ink on paper can be irreversibly erased by prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light (365 nm, 60 mw/cm). Moreover, the multi-morphology microspheres can be further arranged for multiple-information encryption and anti-counterfeiting of barcodes and two-dimensional codes, in which double validation was carried out through fluorescence spectroscopy and laser confocal microscopy. This approach provides a new method for more reliable anti-counterfeiting and information encryption.

High-affinity uric acid clearance based on motile β-CD/F-127 polyrotaxane microspheres for enhanced diabetic wound repair.

Carbohydr Polym

State Key Laboratory of Bioactive Molecules and Druggability Assessment, Institute of Biomedical Engineering, Jinan University, Guangzhou 510632, China. Electronic address:

Hyperuricemia-related diabetic wounds are notoriously difficult to treat due to elevated uric acid (UA) levels, excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS), and chronic inflammation. Current therapies often fail to address these underlying causes, underscoring the need for innovative approaches that not only clear UA but also mitigate inflammation and promote tissue regeneration. In this study, we developed a polyrotaxane-based microsphere (HPR MS) system conjugated with 4,5-diamino-2-thiouracil (DT) to achieve high-affinity UA clearance without increasing cytotoxicity.

Carbon dots (CDs) mediated g-CN (CN) is a promising visible-light-driven semiconductor in catalyzing peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for aqueous contaminants remediation. However, the poor dispersibility of powered catalyst and its challenging recyclability impede their broader application. Herein, we embedded FeN bridge within the g-CN framework and immobilized g-CN gel beads (CA/FNCCN) through a 3D cross-linking process with sodium alginate.
