In this work, metal acetylacetonates were used to catalyze the reaction of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) and bisphenol A (BPA) and high conversion of BPA and excellent selectivity of carboxymethylation products were achieved. Among these, zirconium(IV) acetylacetonate (Zr(acac)(4)) exhibited the best catalytic performance with BPA conversion of 85.2% an...

Genetically encoded biosensors are indispensable tools for visualizing the spatiotemporal dynamics of analytes or processes in living cells in vitro and in vivo. Their widespread adaptation has gone hand in hand with the development of sensors for new analytes or processes and improved functionality and robustness. In this review, we highlight some...
To recycle the sharply growing spent lithium-ion batteries and alleviate concerns over shortages of resources, particularly Li, is still an urgent issue. In this work, an organic acids based leaching approach at room temperature is proposed to recover Li and FePO4 from spent LiFePO4 cathode powder. The coexistent metal ions, Cu and Al, have also be...

Portosystemic shunts (PSS) are congenital or acquired vascular anomalies that cause blood to bypass the liver. Liver function tests, such as fasting ammonia, ammonia tolerance test, and (paired) serum bile acids, are reliable for the diagnosis of PSS in dogs. Surgical attenuation is a common treatment for congenital PSS. Following surgical attenuat...

Nanoparticles resistant to strong acid were prepared by grafting alkyl chains (i.e., C-1-, C-8-, and C-18-) and alkyl sulfonic acid groups onto silica. The composition, morphology, and contact angles of these nanoparticles were characterized. These modified silica nanoparticles were used to fabricate a Pickering emulsion using the mixture of concen...
