Water-induced supramolecular self-assembly of porphyrin integrated with multivalent metal–organic framework for enhanced electrochemiluminescence and ultrasensitive aptasensing of 4-fluoromethamphetamine

This study presents a water-induced supramolecular self-assembly strategy that integrates porphyrin aggregates with a multifunctional MIL-101(Fe)@MoS₂ metal–organic framework to overcome aggregation-caused quenching and create an ultrasensitive electrochemiluminescence aptasensor for detecting 4-fluoromethamphetamine in e-cigarette samples.

Stabilization Mechanism and Rheological Behavior of Temperature- and Salinity-Resistant Gels Based on AM/AMPS Polymers

This study investigates the stabilization mechanisms and rheological behaviors of AM/AMPS-based gels with varying AMPS content, revealing that while higher AMPS content (60%) enhances thermal stability, lower AMPS content (30%) yields stronger plugging pressure due to a more brittle rheological profile, thereby providing critical insights for optimizing gel properties for high-temperature, high-salinity oilfield water shutoff applications.

Honey-Dependent Augmentation the Stability, Hydrophilicity, Mechanical, and Biological Properties of PCL-PVA Blend Nanofibers Electrospun in Formic Acid/Acetic Acid Solvent Running title: Honey-Based Enhancement of the PCL-PVA Nanofibers Stability

This study demonstrates that incorporating 7.5% honey into PCL-PVA nanofiber solutions stabilized in formic acid/acetic acid solvents prevents time-dependent acidic hydrolysis, thereby maintaining spinnability for over 21 days while enhancing the resulting scaffolds' mechanical strength, hydrophilicity, and biocompatibility compared to honey-free controls.

Liquid-mediated mechanosynthesis of Zn-BDC coordination polymers via water- and DMF-assisted ball milling

This study demonstrates that the phase-selective mechanosynthesis of Zn-BDC coordination polymers via liquid-assisted ball milling is governed by the specific liquid additive used, where water yields a 1D structure while DMF or optimized water-DMF mixtures selectively produce the 2D metal-organic framework MOF-2 with gas adsorption properties comparable to solution-synthesized samples.
