    Abstract This study aimed to develop effective adsorbents for capturing radioactive iodine in nuclear power waste gas. Two zinc metal-organic frameworks (Zn-MOFs) were synthesized and found to have favorable properties such as a large surface area, thermal stability, surface rich in π-electron-containing nitrogen, and redox potential. Adsorption experiments revealed maximum capacities of 1.25 and 1.96 g g

    Abstract HighlightsIntermittent fertilizer discharge equipment was designed to realize hole fertilizer application.The optimal structure of the fluted discharge roller was three grooves with conical cross-sections.This study provides a reference for the design of equipment and control systems for hole fertilizer application.Abstract. Fertilizers are necessary for high crop yields. In mechanized application of starter fertilizer for tobacco, discharging the fertilizer immediately below the seedlings promotes root growth and nutrient uptake, resulting in a high utilization rate. This placement is called hole fertilizer application and is fertilizer-saving and environment-friendly. To meet the requirements of hole fertilizer application for crops with specific plant spacing, equipment to intermittently discharge fertilizer has been designed based on the structure of a fluted roller. To explore the influence of the structural and working parameters of the intermittent discharge equipment on the uniformity of hole fertilization and the accuracy of marking fertilizer positions, the fertilizer discharge process and marking process were simulated using a discrete element method based on theoretical analysis. The optimal combination of parameters was a tapered circular groove shape with three grooves, the rotational speed of the fluted roller was 30 rpm, and the center distance between two material bins was 40 cm. In the simulation, the coefficient of variation for single-hole fertilizer application was 3.39%, and the marking error was 1.86 cm. Bench tests were performed using the optimal combination of parameters to verify the simulation results. The intermittent discharge equipment was able to achieve hole fertilizer application and mark the fertilizer position. The coefficient of variation for single-hole fertilizer application was 4.35%, and the marking error was 1.95 cm. The bench tests proved that the discrete element method was feasible for optimizing the equipment parameters. This study provides a reference for developing hole fertilizer application equipment and control systems to improve fertilizer use efficiency.

    Abstract The traditional biological nitrogen removal technology consists of two steps: nitrification by autotrophs in aerobic circumstances and denitrification by heterotrophs in anaerobic situations; however, this technology requires a huge area and stringent environmental conditions. Researchers reached the conclusion that the denitrification process could also be carried out in aerobic circumstances with the discovery of aerobic denitrification. The aerobic denitrification process is carried out by aerobic denitrifying bacteria (ADB), most of which are heterotrophic bacteria that can metabolize various forms of nitrogen compounds under aerobic conditions and directly convert ammonia nitrogen to N₂ for discharge from the system. Despite the fact that there is no universal agreement on the mechanism of aerobic denitrification, this article reviewed four current explanations for the denitrification mechanism of ADB, including the microenvironment theory, theory of enzyme, electron transport bottlenecks theory, and omics study, and summarized the parameters affecting the denitrification efficiency of ADB in terms of carbon source, temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO), and pH. It also discussed the current status of the application of aerobic denitrification in practical processes. Following the review, the difficulties of present aerobic denitrification technology are outlined and future research options are highlighted. This review may help to improve the design of current wastewater treatment facilities by utilizing ADB for effective nitrogen removal and provide the engineers with relevant references.

    Abstract VK2809 is a promising drug candidate in Phase II clinical trials for the treatment of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). It is a prodrug with a HepDirect strategy, which can achieve selective hepatic metabolic activation, generating an active metabolite VK2809A as a potent and selective agonist for thyroid hormone receptor beta (TRβ), a concomitant reactive metabolite VK2809B, and a glutathione (GSH) conjugate MB06588. Currently, there is no convenient and sensitive bioanalytical method for the simultaneous determination of the above three metabolites. Herein, we established an LC-MS/MS method to separate VK2809 and its metabolites on the XSelect HSS T3 column and quantified them in negative electrospray ionization mode. Subsequently, several factors were investigated such as the use of 60% acetonitrile for homogenization to stabilize the analytes, the addition of 20 mM glutathione for the derivation of VK2809B, and the protein precipitation with methanol containing Sobetirome as the internal standard (IS). The method exhibited good linearity for all compounds (19.4-388.4 nM for VK2809; 27.4-2744.4 nM for VK2809A and 10.6-211.0 nM for MB06588) with great correlation coefficients (r > 0.996). The method validation also demonstrated acceptable precision (RSD < 13.0% for VK2809, RSD < 7.9% for VK2809A, RSD < 14.4% for MB06588) and accuracy (92.7%-103% for VK2809, 91.2%-107.3% for VK2809A, 96%-106.7% for MB06588). The matrix effect, recovery, and stability were also suitable to determine all the analytes. This method is suitable for the bioanalysis of VK2809 and its metabolites and has been successfully applied to the study of intrahepatic exposure in rats. It is expected to be further practiced in drug design, optimization, and metabolism study in the following research.

    Abstract Redox-responsive hydropersulfide prodrugs are designed to enable a more controllable and efficient hydropersulfide (RSSH) supply and to thoroughly explore their biological and therapeutic applications in oxidative damage. To obtain novel activation patterns triggered by redox signaling, we focused on NAD(P)H: quinone acceptor oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1), a canonical antioxidant enzyme, and designed NQO1-activated RSSH prodrugs. We also performed a head-to-head comparison of two mainstream structural scaffolds with solid quantitative analysis of prodrugs, RSSH, and metabolic by-products by LC-MS/MS, confirming that the perthiocarbamate scaffold was more effective in intracellular prodrug uptake and RSSH production. The prodrug was highly potent in oxidative stress management against cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. Strikingly, this prodrug possessed potential feedback activation properties by which the delivered RSSH can further escalate the prodrug activation via NQO1 upregulation. Our strategy pushed RSSH prodrugs one step further in the pursuit of efficient release in biological matrices and improved druggability against oxidative stress.

    Abstract A novel metal-free protocol for the effective and efficient construction of pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines via a diethyl azodicarboxylate (DEAD)-promoted oxidative [3 + 2] cycloaddition/aromatization tandem reaction is described. Instead of the reported two-component oxidation systems, DEAD, as the sole oxidant, could smoothly transfer the tertiary amines to azomethine ylides via oxidation-deprotonation tandem process. The reaction proceeded with a broad substrate scope, giving rise to products in moderate to good isolated yields.
