    Abstract With the rapid development of the Internet of Things, numerous devices have been deployed in complex environments for environmental monitoring and information transmission, which brings new power supply challenges. Wireless power transfer is a promising solution since it enables power delivery without cables, providing well-behaved flexibility for power supplies. Here we propose a compact wireless power transfer framework. The core components of the proposed framework include a plane-wave feeder and a transmissive 2-bit reconfigurable metasurface-based beam generator, which constitute a reconfigurable power router. The combined profile of the feeder and the beam generator is 0.8 wavelengths. In collaboration with a deep-learning-driven environment sensor, the router enables object detection and localization, and intelligent wireless power transfer to power-consuming targets, especially in dynamic multitarget environments. Experiments also show that the router is capable of simultaneous wireless power and information transfer. Due to the merits of low cost and compact size, the proposed framework may boost the commercialization of metasurface-based wireless power transfer routers.

    Abstract In this study, the sensing mechanism of (2E,4E)-5-(4-(dimethylamino)phenyl)-1-(2-(2,4dinitrophenoxy)phenyl)penta-2,4-dien-1-one (DAPH-DNP) towards thiophenols was investigated by density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT). The DNP group plays an important role in charge transfer excitation. Due to the typical donor-excited photo-induced electron transfer (d-PET) process, DAPH-DNP has fluorescence quenching behavior. After the thiolysis reaction between DAPH-DNP and thiophenol, the hydroxyl group is released, and DAPH is generated with the reaction showing strong fluorescence. The fluorescence enhancement of DAPH is not caused by an excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) process. The potential energy curves (PECs) show that DAPH-keto is less stable than DAPH-enol. The frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs) of DAPH show that the excitation process is accompanied by intramolecular charger transfer (ICT), and the corresponding character of DAPH was further confirmed by hole-electron and interfragment charge transfer (IFCT) analysis methods. Above all, the sensing mechanism of the turn-on type probe DAPH-DNP towards thiophenol is based on the PET mechanism.

    Abstract Hyaluronic acid fillers are the preferred choice for minimally invasive facial volume restoration. In this study, a split-face design was used to compare the effectiveness and safety results of Belotero Balance Lidocaine (BEL) and Restylane (RES, control) to investigate whether BEL is noninferior compared with RES in nasolabial fold (NLF) correction.
    Methods: This was a prospective, controlled clinical study in Chinese subjects. Subjects with symmetrical moderate NLFs according to the Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale were randomized to receive BEL in one NLF and RES in the other. The primary objective was to investigate whether BEL is noninferior compared with RES after being injected mid-dermally in moderate NLFs after 6 months. Secondary objectives included responses at other visits and pain sensation. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were assessed.
    Results: A total of 220 subjects were enrolled. The Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale response rates at month 6 were 62.9% for BEL versus 64.9% for RES, demonstrating noninferiority. The secondary endpoints supported this. Significantly reduced pain scores were observed for BEL versus RES. For both products, injection site nodule and bruising were the most frequent treatment-emergent adverse events at the injection site. All treatment-related treatment-emergent adverse events were mild.
    Conclusions: The study showed that BEL is effective and well tolerated for correction of moderate NLFs in Chinese subjects. Noninferiority of BEL was demonstrated compared with RES, and regardless of applied pain treatment, a further reduction in injection pain was observed in BEL.

    Abstract This work is dedicated to the selective conversion of lignin. A nickel, tin, and sulfur-doped aluminum phosphate zeolite catalyst was developed for the selective production of lignin-derived monomers. The acidity and hydrogenation sites of this catalyst can be flexibly adjusted, and it exhibits a high yield (26.7%) for monomers with a nearly 68.8% conversion of lignin at 235 °C. The results show that Brønsted acid can increase the conversion of lignin and has a high selectivity for trans-ferulic acid, while Lewis acid and hydrogenation sites can promote the production of monomers with low oxygen content. The excellent stability and simple preparation method provide the possibility for the application of this depolymerization technology. This work could be a reference for the development of lignocellulosic biomass.

    Abstract To investigate the anti-obesity effect of a noni (Morinda citrifolia L.) fruit polysaccharide (NFP) and its potential mechanisms, 24 male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into three groups-normal control group, high-fat diet (HFD) group, and NFP-administration group and were gavaged once a day for 12 weeks. The body weights, serum lipid parameters, bile acid (BA)-related proteins, fecal BA, and cecal bacteria of the mice were obtained and analyzed. Results indicate that NFP supplementation (200 mg/kg·bw) reduced the body weight, energy intake, and serum and liver lipids of the HFD mice. Further studies found that NFP activated the hepatic and colonic farnesoid X receptor and increased the excretion of fecal-conjugated BAs, particularly tauro-alpha-muricholic acid and tauro-beta-muricholic acid. In addition, NFP modulated the intestinal microbiota and increased the relative abundance of Lactobacillus in the HFD mice. In conclusion, NFP modulated gut microbiota and improved BA metabolism, which may be the main mechanism behind NFP alleviation of fat accumulation and dyslipidemia in mice under HFD.

    Abstract Copper decorated zeolites are promising candidates for the partial oxidation of methane to generate methanol with elevated energy density, nevertheless, the modulation and possible synergism between multiple Cu active sites still need to be delved in depth. Here, ZSM-5 catalysts with modulated Cu motifs were proposed using copper oxysalts as precursors through a calcination process. By modifying the contents of copper oxysalts precursors, the Cu active sites varied, and a unique M shaped trend of CH₃OH productivity emerged. Attributed to the synergetic effects of CuₓOy nanoparticles (adsorbing CH₄ and generating *OCH₃ species) and Cu–OH motif (binding CH₄ and forming Si···CH₃), a maximum CH₃OH yield of 15975.73 μmol/gcₐₜ/h (with CH₃OOH yield of 2155.59 μmol/gcₐₜ/h) and methyl oxygenates selectivity up to 72.79 % could be achieved. This work paved an efficient, low cost, and succinct way for the manufacture of catalysts with tunable active sites and high performance over methane to methanol conversion.

    Abstract Previous studies on sugarcane harvester extractors have mainly focused on improving harvest quality and reducing the impurity rate and loss rate, which often ignored the issue of high energy consumption. To reduce the energy consumption of the extractor while maintaining the original impurity rate and loss rate stable, firstly, a blade element analysis method with aerodynamic theory was put forward to analyze the stress of the extractor blade, and the energy consumption equation and influencing factors of extraction were obtained. Subsequently, the computational fluid dynamics model of the exhaust extractor was established. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and the SST k-ω model were used to analyze the mechanism of various influencing factors on the energy consumption and internal flow characteristics of the extractor. The changes in various parameters were analyzed and discussed with respect to the resulting variations in internal pressure, velocity, vortex structure, and lift–drag coefficient of the extractor. A test bench of the extractor was built, and orthogonal tests were carried out with energy consumption, impurity rate, and loss rate as test indicators. Considering the results of the simulation and bench test comprehensively, the combination of a rotational speed of 1450 RPM, a blade number of 3, an installation angle of 25°, and a blade chord length of 200 mm was optimal for the extractor. Finally, a comparative test was carried out between the optimized extractor and the original extractor. The results demonstrated that the energy consumption of the optimized extractor was reduced by 15.49%. The impurity rate decreased by 3.51%, and the loss rate decreased by 12.39% compared to the original extractor. The study can provide a theoretical and experimental basis for designing and optimizing extractor performance.
