Ratiometric luminescent sensors based on metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as a powerful tool in chemical sensing due to their ability to provide self-calibrated, reliable, and interference-resistant signals. Unlike conventional…

This study presents a comprehensive strategy to optimize hybrid organic-inorganic tandem systems for solar-driven water splitting, targeting sustained performance improvements from current levels of 2% STH efficiency toward the ambitious…

The influence of reaction parameters on the conversion of fructose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) using Fe₃O₄@SiO₂-SO₃H as a catalyst was systematically investigated. Solvent selection played a critical role in determining both…

The development of high-performance battery separators is pivotal to advancing the safety, efficiency, and lifespan of rechargeable energy storage systems. Conventional polyolefin-based separators, such as polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP),…

This study investigates the kinetics of binding between α-amylase and green tea flavonoids using fluorescence quenching (FQ) to determine how these interactions influence enzyme inhibition. The research focuses on four…

Two achiral metal-organic colloidal systems, Zn-L1 and Zn-L2, were synthesized from simple hydrazide-based ligands and zinc ions. Despite their achiral molecular components, both colloids exhibited pronounced circularly polarized luminescence (CPL)…

Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a prevalent neurological complication following surgery, particularly in elderly patients, characterized by memory deficits, attention impairments, and executive dysfunction. Despite its clinical significance, effective therapeutic…

Chitosan (CH) is a naturally derived biopolymer with significant potential in biomedical applications due to its biocompatibility, biodegradability, and ability to support cell growth. In this study, we investigate the…

Efficient anti-Stokes emission within nanoscale volumes is pivotal for developing ultracompact photonic devices across diverse applications. Traditional approaches rely on coupling subwavelength materials—such as metal nanoparticles and two-dimensional semiconductors—with plasmonic…

Biofiltration has emerged as a sustainable and cost-effective solution for mitigating offensive odors caused by hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), ammonia (NH₃), and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in industrial environments. The performance…
