Polydopamine-Coated Gold Core/Hollow Mesoporous Silica Shell Particles as a Nanoplatform for Multimode Imaging and Photothermal Therapy of Tumors
摘要: It is highly desirable to develop a new hybrid nanoplatform that integrates diagnosis and treatment elements for effective theranostics of tumors. Herein, we have skillfully designed a nanoplatform of polydopamine (PDA)-coated and perfluorohexane (PFH)-filled gold core/hollow mesoporous silica shell (Au@mSiO2-PFH-PDA, ASPP for short) particles for photoacoustic (PA)/ultrasound (US)/computed tomography (CT)/thermal imaging and photothermal therapy (PTT) of tumors. In this work, we first synthesized Au seed particles with a diameter of 15.8 nm using a sodium citrate reduction method, and coated Au seeds with polyvinylpyrrolidone for further growth of solid silica shell/mesoporous silica shell onto the Au seeds. After treatment via selective etching to remove solid silica shell, amination of surface of the particles, and filling of PFH into the internal cavity of the spheres with a diameter of 182.1 nm, PDA coating was performed to render the particles with an external shell thickness of 15.1 nm. The formed hybrid particles with a size of 212.2 nm are colloidally stable and exhibit good cytocompatibility, and display excellent PA/US/CT/thermal imaging property due to the co-presence of PDA, PFH, and Au nanoparticles. Furthermore, the PDA coating renders the platform with a photothermal conversion efficiency of 61.2%, enabling effective photothermal ablation of cancer cells in vitro and a xenografted 4T1 tumor model in vivo under irradiation with an 808 nm laser. More importantly, in the primary 4T1 tumor model, intratumoral injection of the ASPP and irradiation with an 808 nm laser can also completely inhibit the occurrence lung metastasis induced by the 4T1 tumor. The as-prepared hybrid nanoplatform may hold a great promise to be adopted for multimode imaging and PTT of tumors and inhibition of tumor metastasis.

Role of polysiloxanes in the synthesis of aligned porous silicon oxycarbide ceramics
摘要: The present work focuses on establishing the role of polysiloxane precursors in the synthesis of aligned porous polymer derived silicon oxycarbide ceramics. The precursors used for the synthesis are, polymethylhydrosiloxane, vinyl terminated polydimethylsiloxane and cyclic tetramethyl-tetravinlycyclotetrasiloxane. Hydrotalcite is used for attaining aligned macroporosity during the crosslinking stage itself. Subsequently, pyrolysis of the sample has been carried out to synthesize the ceramics. The evolution of pore structure in these PDCs during the crosslinking and pyrolysis is co-related to the thermal decomposition behaviour. The pore morphology, structure and the size were analyzed using SEM, X-ray computed tomography and BET. Our studies confirm the presence of bimodal porosity in these PDCs. These PDCs have a specific surface area ranging from 77 - 160 m2/g and a total pore volume ranging from 0.18 - 0.29 cm3/g. These results could be significant for achieving a controlled synthesis process of porous materials suitable for various applications like adsorption, filtering and electrochemical storage.

Mechanisim investigation on the enhanced and selective photoelectrochemical oxidation of atrazine on molecular imprinted mesoporous TiO2
摘要: In this work, enhanced and selective photoelectrochemical (PEC) oxidation of atrazine was realized on molecular imprinted mesoporous TiO2 (MI-meso-TiO2). The investigation revealed that, for one hand, the surface MI sites could function as surface defects for accelerating the separation of photogenerated holes and electrons, leading to enhanced generation of hydroxyl radicals. For the other hand, the MI sites showed enhanced binding affinity toward atrazine, resulted from the formation of multiple hydrogen bonds and halogen bonds etc., which was testified by in situ ATR-FTIR spectra. It led to the enhanced adsorption and improved local concentration of atrazine on the electrode surface. Both the two factors contributed to the improved PEC oxidation activity for atrazine on MI-meso-TiO2 compared with that on meso-TiO2. Moreover, the high binding affinity between MI sites and atrazine resulted in the selective recognition ability toward atrazine in the presence of the coexisting pollutants, so that selective PEC oxidation of atrazine in complex polluted water samples was successfully achieved on MI-meso-TiO2 with the apparent rate constant of 0.25 h-1, whereas that on meso-TiO2 was only 0.08 h-1. This work provided something new for explaining the selective and enhanced PEC performance on molecular imprinting catalyst.

Multifunctional nanoplatforms for photoacoustic imaging-guided combined therapy enhanced by CO induced ferroptosis
摘要: A multifunctional CO/thermo/chemotherapy nanoplatform is here reported, which is composed of mesoporous carbon nanoparticles (MCN) as near-infrared (NIR)-responsive drug carrier, doxorubicin (DOX) as chemotherapeutic drug and triiron dodecacarbonyl (FeCO) as thermosensitive CO prodrug. The nanoplatform could absorb near-infrared (NIR) light and convert it into ample heat to trigger CO release and could also release DOX in the acidic tumor microenvironment. More importantly, the generated CO molecules successfully increase cancer cell sensitivity to chemotherapeutics by the ferroptosis pathway. Subsequently, under the guidance of photoacoustic imaging, the FeCO-DOX@MCN nanoplatform demonstrates high treatment efficacies in vitro and in vivo by combination of chemotherapy, photothermal therapy and gas therapy. This multifunctional platform with excellent antitumor efficacy has great potential in precision cancer therapy.

Direct Construction of Mesoporous Metal Sulfides via Reactive Spray Deposition Technology
摘要: A rapid one-step flame combustion deposition method was developed to fabricate the mesoporous metal sulfides directly on nickel foam without binder and template. The first-row transition metal sulfides, Co9S8, Ni3S4, NiCo2S4 and FeS, were successfully synthesized with three-dimensional architecture, large specific surface area (around 110 m2 g-1), and interconnected pore networks. The binary meso-NiCo2S4 exhibited a high specific capacitance (1350 F g-1 at 10 A g-1), excellent rate capability and robust cycling stability in both three-electrode half-cells and asymmetric supercapacitor. This study demonstrated a new scalable strategy to obtain mesoporous metal sulfides with high electrochemical performance.

High-performance and Multifunctional Colorimetric Humidity Sensors Based on Mesoporous Photonic Crystals and Nanogels
摘要: Colorimetric sensors, as a key branch of the application of photonic crystals (PCs), sets off enthusiasm of scientists to make research. Here, simple mesoporous and structurally colored one-dimensional photonic crystals (1DPCs) constructed by alternating assembly of poly(acrylamide-N,N'-methylene bisacrylamide) (P(AM-MBA)) nanogels and TiO2 nanoparticles are reported as high-performance colorimetric humidity sensors. The sensors with bright colors display rapid response to relative humidity (RH) change and reach sensing balance in 0.5 s. By varying RH from 47.0% to 89.3%, stopband of a sensor changes from 426 nm to 668 nm, almost spanning the whole visible range. Meanwhile, visual sensing of RH possesses good reversibility and repeatability. Moreover, the sensors with delicate patterns are facilely fabricated by partial UV photodegradation of the polymer layers with nano TiO2 as catalyst. The delicate patterns and backgrounds show different colors, and change color simultaneously and quickly by varying the ambient humidity. Accurate QR code pattern is also realized on the PC sensor, it is found successful reading of the data is only achieved by increasing RH to realize high color contrast between the code and background. Given their excellent properties, the porous hybrid PCs are promising as high-performance humidity sensors with potential display, decoration, information-storage and encryption functions.

Preparation of ordered mesoporous Au using double gyroid mesoporous silica KIT-6 via a seed-mediated growth process
摘要: Ordered mesoporous Au was prepared using double-gyroid (cubic Ia3d) mesoporous silica KIT-6 as a template. The Au frameworks were formed within the template via a seed-mediated growth process. Au nanoparticles were initially prepared as seeds within the mesopores, and subsequently, they were grown under mild and controlled reducing conditions. The transmission electron micrographs and scanning electron micrographs of mesoporous Au after the removal of the template revealed the formation of mesoporous Au replicas. The small-angle X-ray scattering pattern of mesoporous Au reveals that the obtained mesoporous Au has a cubic I4132 mesostructure, which is different from that of the original template, implying that Au was deposited within only one mesochannel of the two interconnected ones. The seed-mediated growth process is a key factor in the successful formation of ordered mesoporous Au using a mesoporous silica template. Our preparative method can serve as a guide for further development of synthetic and materials chemistry of mesoporous Au.

GNRs/PPy/m-SiO2 Core/Shell Hybrids as Drug Nanocarriers for Efficient Chemo-Photothermal Therapy
摘要: Combination therapy as a novel strategy with the combination of photothermal therapy and chemotherapy (photothermal-chemotherapy) has aroused the tremendously increasing interest owing to the synergistic therapeutic effect on destroying cancer cells since that the hyperthermia generated from photothermal therapy can promote drug delivery into tumors, which would highly increase therapeutic efficacy as compared to those sole treatments. Herein, we fabricated a novel nanomaterial-based carrier composed of GNRs, polypyrrole (PPy) and mesoporous silica to form GNRs/PPy/m-SiO2 core/shell hybrids. After loading the anticancer drug of doxorubicin (DOX), the photothermal effect and the drug-release behavior of GNRs/PPy@m-SiO2-DOX hybrids were investigated. The in vitro and in vivo near-infrared (NIR) photothermal-chemotherapy were also revealed. The results indicated the NIR-induced photothermal effect was beneficial to promote the release of the drug. In addition, combination therapy demonstrated the enhanced synergistic efficacy and excellent treatment efficacy for cancer therapy.

ZnO/ZnO <sub/>2</sub> /Pt Janus Micromotors Propulsion Mode Changes with Size and Interface Structure: Enhanced Nitroaromatic Explosives Degradation under Visible Light
摘要: Self-motile mesoporous ZnO/Pt-based Janus micromotors accelerated by bubble propulsion that provide efficient removal of explosives and dye pollutants via photodegradation under visible light are presented. Decomposition of H2O2 (the fuel) is triggered by a platinum catalytic layer asymmetrically deposited on the nanosheets of the hierarchical and mesoporous ZnO microparticles. The size-dependent motion behavior of the mesoporous micromotors is studied; the micromotors with average size ~1.5 μm exhibit enhanced self-diffusiophoretic motion, whereas the fast bubble propulsion is detected for micromotors larger than 5 μm. The bubble-propelled mesoporous ZnO/Pt Janus micromotors show remarkable speeds of over 350 μm s?1 at H2O2 concentrations lower than 5 wt %, which is unusual for Janus micromotors based on dense materials such as ZnO. This high speed is related to efficient bubble nucleation, pinning, and growth due to the highly active and rough surface area of these micromotors, whereas the ZnO/Pt particles with a smooth surface and low surface area are motionless. We discovered new atomic interfaces of ZnO2 introduced into the ZnO/Pt micromotor system, as revealed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), which contribute to enhance their photocatalytic activity under visible light. Such coupling of the rapid movement with the high catalytic performance of ZnO/Pt Janus micromotors provides efficient removal of nitroaromatic explosives and dye pollutants from contaminated water under visible light without the need for UV irradiation. This paves the way for real-world environmental remediation efforts using microrobots.

Optical oxygen sensing by MPA-capped CdTe quantum dots immobilized in mesoporous silica
摘要: A novel nanocomposite luminescent material was prepared by taking advantage of the versatile wet impregnation method for the dispersion of CdTe quantum dots (QDs) into mesoporous silica host matrix and thus providing great interaction between oxygen and QDs, with potential application in an optical oxygen sensor. The optical/spectroscopic properties of the QDs suspended in aqueous media and incorporated in mesoporous silica were evaluated as a function of aging time, temperature variation and oxygen concentration. Luminescence quenching studies were carried out for both QDs suspended in solution and loaded into the silica matrix, in the presence of varying O2 concentration. By Stern-Volmer plot analysis, obtained at different temperatures, it was possible to verify the existence of two types of emission quenching mechanisms for CdTe QDs. After aging for 120 days at room temperature, the QDs in colloidal suspension displayed a small red-shifted emission, which was interpreted as a decreased bandgap energy owing to the increase in the nanocrystal size. In contrast, the emission spectrum of CdTe QDs loaded into the mesoporous SiO2 matrix remained unchanged after aging for the same time at ambient temperature. The presented results will contribute to the discernment of oxygen quenching mechanisms and chemical stability of optical sensors based on CdTe QDs.
