The distribution of substitutional aluminum (Al) atoms in zeolites affects molecular adsorbate geometry, catalytic activity, and shape and size selectivity. Accurately determining Al positions has been challenging. We used synchrotron resonant soft x-ray diffraction (RSXRD) at multiple energies near the Al K-edge combined with molecular adsorption techniques to precisely locate "single Al" and "Al pairs" in a commercial H-ZSM-5 zeolite.

Near-infrared (NIR) controlled drug delivery systems have drawn a lot of attention throughout the past few decades due to the deep penetration depth and comparatively minor side effects of the stimulus. In this study, we introduce an innovative approach for gastric cancer treatment by combining photothermal infrared-sensitive gold nanorods (AuNRs) with a conjugated microporous polymer (CMP) to create a drug delivery system tailored for transporting the cytostatic drug 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). CMPs are fully conjugated networks with high internal surface areas that can be precisely tailored to the adsorption and transport of active compounds through the right choice of chemical functionalities.

A comprehensive strategy, including spectroscopic, molecular simulation, proteomics, and bioinformatics techniques, was employed to investigate a novel triazole, 5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole, its interactions with high-abundance blood proteins, and identification of low-abundance proteins. The binding constants and thermodynamic parameters of the triazole to two high-abundance blood globular proteins, human serum albumin, and human immunoglobulin G (HIgG), were obtained by spectroscopic techniques and computational chemistry. The two-dimensional gel electrophoresis in combination with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry was employed to isolate and identify differentially expressed low-abundance proteins in human blood serum samples following exposure to the triazole.

Precisely manipulating asymmetric coordination configurations and examining electronic effects enable to tuning the intrinsic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity of single-atom catalysts (SACs). However, the shortage of a definite relationship between coordination asymmetry and catalytic activity makes the rational design of SACs ambiguous. Here, we propose a concept of "asymmetry degree" to quantify asymmetric coordination configurations and assess the effectiveness of active moieties in Fe-based SACs.

Dyes can seriously harm human health because they linger or break down in the environment and find their way into drinking water through the water cycle. Examples of the most important interactions between MOFs and dyes are provided, and an effort is made to comprehend how surface charge and size compatibility affect the adsorption process. The methods for incorporating functionalized Ce-MOF into electrospun nanofibers made of polyvinyl alcohol and chitosan to create functionalized cerium metal organic framework nanofiber membranes (FCCP nanofiber membranes) are presented in this paper.
