As two famous drugs with anti-virus activities for the combination therapy of COVID-19, mefloquine (MQ) hydrochloride and artesunate (Art) were combined and then transformed to API-ILs to enhance therapeutic effects. The synthesized [MQ][Art] was characterized using melting point tests, Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FT-IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR), and mass spectroscopy (MS). Furthermore, [MQ][Art] exhibited improved water solubility, stability and pH values, which promoted treatment effectiveness while minimizing intestinal irritation during administration. Subsequently, [MQ][Art] was incorporated into Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) to further enhance stability and achieve a controlled release effect. Combined with computational studies on interactive energy between ZIF-8 and API-IL, comprehensive characterizations confirmed the successful incorporation of [MQ][Art] on ZIF-8. The preparation method of suppositories was then investigated; among the 9 tested suppository bases, poloxamer-based suppositories demonstrated uniform quality with suitable hardness and melting time while also exhibiting a controlled release effect on [MQ][Art]. After 10 h of cumulative release rate testing reached 90 %. Finally, the poloxamer-based suppository containing [MQ][Art]@ZIF-8 showed good quality uniformity with an average drug content of 11.4 mg per suppository and an average displacement value of 2.59. Besides that, the in vivo release process was detected to demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed system. In conclusion, the combination of API-ILs with ZIF-8 in suppositories designed for COVID-19 treatment enhances therapy effectiveness by improving solubility and stability while also providing controlled release effects on MQ and Art.","PeriodicalId":270,"journal":{"name":"Chemical Engineering Journal","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":15.1,"publicationDate":"2025-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145261105","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we report on the development of a microfluidic device designed to generate drug concentration gradients accurately and rapidly. This device utilizes laminar flow at low Reynolds numbers to precisely control the volume ratio of the two mixed fluids by adjusting channel length, helping to create precise dilution ratios from 1/3× to 1/300×. We demonstrated that the resulting concentration gradient deviated less than 6 % from the target value, significantly better than manual dilution methods, using bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a sample to simulate actual drug dilution. Furthermore, the device was validated through cytotoxicity tests of the dilution of chemotherapy drug (oxaliplatin) on colorectal cancer cells (HCT-116). The IC50 deviation obtained from the microfluidic device was within 2.45 % of those obtained by manual dilution, showcasing its reliability and accuracy. Multi-drug screening involving 5-FU, oxaliplatin and SN-38 on HCT-116 cells was also conducted to demonstrate the device's applicability in complex screening. Notably, the device achieves steady-state within 30 s at high flow rates, demonstrating scalability and potential for integration into high-throughput screening platforms.

In this work, we present a hierarchical solar interface evaporator derived from carbonized natural plant leaves, which retain intrinsic multilevel architectures including vascular channels, surface micro-textures, and interlayer porosity. These structures facilitate efficient water transport, broad-spectrum light absorption, and rapid vapor escape. More importantly, the hierarchical system enables multistage energy utilization by coupling direct solar absorption with passive environmental energy harvesting and latent heat recycling from upper to lower evaporation stages. As a result, the 9-stage evaporator attains an exceptionally high evaporation rate of 6.12 kg m−2 h−1 for 1 h under 1-sun (1 kW m−2) without external energy input, significantly surpassing the thermodynamic limit of conventional single-stage systems. The system also exhibits excellent long-term stability and salt rejection in continuous desalination tests. This study demonstrates the feasibility of using carbonized natural materials to construct low-cost, high-efficiency evaporators and offers new insights into multistage energy utilization strategies for practical water purification applications.","PeriodicalId":270,"journal":{"name":"Chemical Engineering Journal","volume":"89 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":15.1,"publicationDate":"2025-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145255003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address these issues, we developed a polyurea-based ionogel (Pub-xIL) via a catalyst-free ambient synthesis strategy, in which ionic liquids are incorporated into polyurea matrices. By tuning molecular ratios (PPG2000/PPG400 and MDI/HMDI), hierarchical H-bond networks were engineered, endowing Pub-xIL with exceptional mechanical properties: tensile strength of 1.7 MPa, puncture resistance (6.95 N load capacity), tear resistance (fracture energy = 2989 J/m2), and self-healing properties. Standardized quantitative wear resistance analysis showed that Pub-xIL had a wear index of 0.046 mg/cycle, outperforming traditional flexible sensor substrates such as polydimethylsiloxane, polyimide, and polyethylene terephthalate. Additionally, Pub-xIL maintained stable performance across a broad temperature range (−20 to 60 °C). The functional ionic liquid [EMIM][TFSI] confers dual advantages on Pub-xIL: it achieves >99 % inhibition rates against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli and yields a high strain coefficient (GF = 3.79, enabling precise motion detection). Integrating the Pub-xIL sensor array with machine learning algorithms enabled real-time classification of dynamic movements (e.g., walking, running) and static postures (e.g., standing, lying down) with a classification accuracy over 96 %.

The oxidized TMB displayed blue color and quenched the red fluorescence of carbon dots derived from neutral red (NR-CDs) through inner filter effect (IFE). In the presence of OPs, the enzyme-like activity of MIL-88B-Fe/Zn was inhibited due to the collapse of MOF structure, which hindered the chromogenic reaction of TMB, while the fluorescence of NR-CDs was restored by IFE deactivation. TMB and NR-CDs were co-modified on filter paper to construct T-N paper with dual signal responses. As OPs concentration increased, T-N paper changed from blue to red under daylight, and red fluorescence enhanced under UV light. Photographs were captured by smartphone, and standard curves of OPs concentration versus R/B values (colorimetric) and R values (fluorescent) were established for quantitative analysis. Detection limits for glyphosate were 1.04 ng/mL (colorimetric) and 1.22 ng/mL (fluorescent).

Herein, the highly conductive GaN-M3(HITP)2/PANI nanocomposites were synthesized through in-situ method on GaN-HP film. Due to the higher degree of protonation caused by hierarchically porous architecture, the GaN-Cu3(HITP)2/PANI sensor demonstrates better TMA sensing performance compared with GaN-Ni3(HITP)2/PANI sensor.

Moreover, the GaN-Cu3(HITP)2/PANI sensor exhibits good long-term stability and humidity resistance. Systematic analysis revealed that the enhanced sensing performance in the GaN-Cu3(HITP)2/PANI composite stems from the formation of coupled heterointerface system and its hierarchically porous architecture.

In this work, we fabricated and subsequently exfoliated single-layer FeNiP2S6-x (SL-FeNiP2S6-x), where mild and selective B(OH)3 etching generated a disordered distribution of surface sulfur vacancies (SVs) for efficient nitrogen reduction reactions (NRR). Single-layer theoretical calculations suggest that interactions between neighboring SVs significantly enhance nitrogen fixation, with single-double sulfur vacancy (S-DSV) interactions causing the most pronounced shift in the d-band center of iron atoms towards the Fermi level. The improved alignment between the production rates of *NN and *H indicates that S-DSV enhances the catalytic activity of FeNiP2S6-x more effectively than single-single sulfur vacancy (S-SSV) or double-double sulfur vacancy (D-DSV), and far outperforms isolated SSV or DSV. Electrochemical tests demonstrated that in a 0.1 M KOH solution at −0.1 V, SL-FeNiP2S6-x with a sufficient concentration (>50 %) of S-DSV achieved a Faraday efficiency (FE) of 51.30 % and an NH3 yield of 96.52 μg h−1 mg−1, surpassing the performance of previously reported NRR catalysts.
