A bismuth-film modified graphite nanofibers-Nafion glassy carbon electrode (BiF/GNFs-NA/GCE) was constructed for the simultaneous determination of trace Cd(II) and Pb(II). The electrochemical properties and applications of the modified electrode were studied. Operational parameters such as deposition potential, deposition time, and bismuth ion concentration were optimized for the purpose of determination of trace metal ions in 0.10 M acetate buffer solution (pH 4.5). Under optimal conditions, based on three times the standard deviation of the baseline, the limits of detection were 0.09 mu g L-1 for Cd(II) and 0.02 mu g L-1 for Pb(II) with a 10 min preconcentration. In addition, the BiF/GNFs-NA/GCE displayed good reproducibility and selectivity, making it suitable for the simultaneous determination of Cd(II) and Pb(II) in real sample such as river water and human blood samples.

H2O2/DEM-Promoted Maft Promoter Demethylation Drives Nrf2/ARE Activation in Zebrafish

Ce Chen, Mingyue He, Xueting Li, Lidong Yu, Yi Liu, Yan Yang, Li Li, Jianbo Jia, Bingsheng Li

Summary: This study found that both hydrogen peroxide and Diethyl Maleate can activate the Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway in zebrafish at 120 hpf. Hydrogen peroxide regulates the demethylation of the maft promoter by inhibiting methyltransferase expression, while DEM does not significantly regulate the methylation of the Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway. However, under oxidative stress, methyltransferase inhibitors can activate the expression of maft and promote the activation of the Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway.

Qian Yang, Mingyang Lai, Dawei Liu, Junyuan Zhang, Yang Zhang, Changyu Liu, Xiaolong Xu, Jianbo Jia

Summary: A low-cost dual-chamber microbial fuel cell (MFC) was constructed as a biosensor for the rapid determination of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) in domestic sewage. The MFCs-BOD biosensor reached a steady state within 1 week and showed high current and power density. Compared with other studies, this biosensor had a shorter start-up period, wider determination range, and faster determination time. Analysis of the microbial community structure revealed significant changes after domestication, with Proteobacteria and Enterobacteria being the dominant electrogenic bacteria. The results confirmed the reliability and applicability of the MFCs-BOD biosensor in determining BOD in sewage, laying a solid foundation for its future application.

Singlet oxygen is also involved in the formation of hypoiodous acid during the transformation of phenolic pollutants by peracetic acid in the presence of iodide

Jiamin Mai, Ge Zeng, Linqian An, Maoju Jiang, Peng Su, Qixiao Lv, Xiangyang Hou, Xiujuan Kong, Jianbo Jia, Tao Yang, Jun Ma

Summary: This study found that the presence of iodide (I-) can enhance the transformation of phenolic pollutants by peracetic acid (PAA) in wastewater treatment. Hypoiodous acid (HOI) was identified as the reactive species in the PAA/I- system. Increasing the doses of PAA and I- promoted the transformation of phenolic pollutants, but the effect was less significant at higher doses. Additionally, the presence of H2O2 hindered the transformation process, while chloride and bromide accelerated it. The transformation products of PAA/I- showed higher cytotoxicity than the parent pollutants.

Summary: Alzheimer's disease is a major cause of senile dementia and is characterized by the aggregation of neurofibrillary tangles and amyloid plaques in the brain. The A beta 1-42 peptide is considered the primary cause of neurotoxicity due to its insolubility and subsequent aggregation. A beta 1-42 and A beta 1-40 have been identified as relevant biomarkers for AD diagnosis, and SurfaceAssisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Mass Spectrometry (SALDI-MS) was used to monitor the A beta 1-42/A beta 1-40 ratio without prior sample treatment.
