Covalent Organic Frameworks for Photocatalytic CO2 Reduction: Metal Integration Principles, Strategies and Functions

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with metals have been recognized as versatile platforms for photocatalytic CO2 reduction (CO2PRR). Herein, an overview of metal integration strategies for COFs is systematically summarized. Regulatory mechanisms and structure–activity relationships between metal integration and COF‐based CO2PRR are emphasized.

Marine Toxins [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
Abstract : Red tides resulting from blooms of the dinoflagellate Ptychodiscus brevis in the Gulf of Mexico have elicited a great deal of scientific interest since the first documented event over 100 years ago (1). Human intoxications from the ingestion of contaminated shellfish and the impact of massive fish kills on the tourist industry along the Gulf

Determinations of Marine Toxins in Foods

open access: yesJournal of AOAC INTERNATIONAL, 1995
Abstract Prospects of new analytical methods for determining marine toxins in foods are described. The methods discussed include fluorometric liquid chromatography, cytotoxicity assays, channel binding assays, and enzyme-immunoassays. Emphasis was laid on assay methods for ciguatoxins and diarrhetric shellfish toxins.

Silicified Wood‐Inspired, High‐Strength Fire‐Resistant Chitin‐Based Aerogels for Sustainable High‐Temperature Thermal Insulation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by natural silicified wood, a biomimetic mineralized chitin‐derived aerogel is constructed. It can withstand 81 000 times its own weight, and its backside temperature is 130.4°C after exposure to ∼1300°C butane flame for 600 s, exhibiting high‐strength, fire‐resistance, and super thermal‐insulation properties.

Modelling the Stoichiometric Regulation of C-Rich Toxins in Marine Dinoflagellates. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Toxin production in marine microalgae was previously shown to be tightly coupled with cellular stoichiometry. The highest values of cellular toxin are in fact mainly associated with a high carbon to nutrient cellular ratio.
