Assembling Hexahedral Supramolecular Nano‐Aggregates on Rice Wax Layer Matrices to Promote the Leaf Deposition and Bioavailability of Bactericides for Plant Protections

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
To address the problem of off‐target movement and low bioavailability of pesticides, two anisotropic supramolecular building units (BiTA18@β‐CD and BiTA18@γ‐CD) have been invented that can self‐assemble into nano‐sized hexagonal cuboids on the rice microcrystalline matrix. This manipulation realizes the enhanced utilization of bactericides for rice and

Untying Surface Chemistry and Emulsion Stability to Construct Multifunctional Pickering Emulsion SERS Sensors for Pretreatment‐Free Quantitative Analysis in Bio‐Media

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A dual‐particle interfacial self‐assembly approach is used to create surface‐accessible Pickering emulsions with Au@Prussian blue nanoparticles acting as the functional component. These emulsions have strong plasmonic properties and are equipped with molecular sieves and internal standards.

Children and Pesticides

open access: yesEDIS, 2013
Children act fast, but so do poisons, including pesticides. Fortunately for most parents, their children are not harmed when the parents have a momentary lapse and aren’t supervising them for a short time. But how would parents respond if they suddenly turn around, and their toddler is holding a can of household aerosol insect killer?
