Ni/NiO core/shell nanoparticles having high affinity with polyhistidine were synthesized by decomposition of a Ni surfactant complex followed by air oxidation. Ni/NiO nanoparticles showed selective and efficient binding to histidine-tagged proteins and easy separation by using a magnet. These provided a more convenient way to efficient purification of histidine-tagged proteins compared with the conventional Ni-NTA complex-bound resins and microbeads.

Nanomaterials (NMs) with unique structures and compositions can give rise to exotic physicochemical properties and applications. Despite the advancement in solution-based methods, scalable access to a wide range of crystal phases and intricate compositions is still challenging. Solid-state reaction (SSR) syntheses have high potential owing to their flexibility toward multielemental phases under feasibly high temperatures and solvent-free conditions as well as their scalability and simplicity. Co

Abstract A novel method for modifying the surface of magnetic‐resonance‐contrasting layered gadolinium hydroxide (LGdH) is developed providing them with water‐ and bio‐compatibility and acid‐resistance, all of which are essential for medical applications. A stable colloid of exfoliated layers is synthesized by exchanging interlayer anions of LGdH with oleate ions. The delaminated layers are successively coated with phospholipids with poly(ethylene glycol) tail groups, and their effectiveness as

The assembly of Co(NCS)(2) with 1-methyl-1'-(3-pyridyl)-2-(4-pyridyl)ethene (L(1)) exhibits a novel supramolecular isomerism of [Co(L(1))(2)(NCS)(2)](infinity) caused by different placement orientation of L(1) around metal centers. The reaction in MeOH/H(2)O and EtOH/H(2)O resulted in a double chain structure of 1, and that in EtOH/CH(3)NO(2) led to an open framework structure of 2. The reaction in MeOH/CH(3)NO(2) solvent system concomitantly afforded 1 and 2. The assemblies of 1-(3-pyridyl)-2-(

Despite the Pt-catalyzed alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) progressing via oxophilic metal-hydroxide surface hybridization, maximizing Pt reactivity alongside operational stability is still unsatisfactory due to the lack of well-designed and optimized interface structures. Producing atomically flat two-dimensional Pt nanodendrites (<b>2D-PtNDs</b>) through our 2D nanospace-confined synthesis strategy, this study tackles the insufficient interfacial contact effect during HER catalysis by

Rational engineering and assimilation of diverse chemo- and biocatalytic functionalities in a single nanostructure is highly desired for efficient multistep chemical reactions but has so far remained elusive. Here, we design and synthesize multimodal catalytic nanoreactors (MCNRs) based on a mesoporous metal-organic framework (MOF). The MCNRs consist of customizable metal nanocrystals and stably anchored enzymes in the mesopores, as well as coordinatively unsaturated cationic metal MOF nodes, al

Next-generation electrocatalysts with smart integrated designs, maximizing the chemical cascade synergy for sustainable hydrogen production, are needed to address the urgent environmental threats, but scalable synthesis of precisely architectured nanohybrids rendering a few-nanometer interfacial controllability to augment the catalytic reactivity and operational stability is a major bottleneck. Herein, by inventing a surface-confined lateral growth of nanometer-thin and nanoporous two-dimensiona

Inner value: A new high-concentration synthesis of Pt nanodendrite employs Au-seed-mediated growth inside a hollow silica nanosphere (see picture). The resulting material is substantially more active than commercial Pt black in the oxygen reduction reaction. Pt nanodendrite colloid with tunable dispersity as well as hybrid nanocrystals of various metals were also fabricated by the procedure.

A novel electroless Pt deposition method was exploited by employing the galvanic replacement process occurring between the Mn(3)O(4) surface and PtCl(4)(2-) complexes. The newly discovered process provides a simple protocol to produce the catalytic nanocomposite, in which a high density of ultrafine Pt nanocrystals is stably immobilized in a homogeneously dispersive state on the surface of Mn(3)O(4) nanoparticles. When the eletrocatalytic activity was tested for the oxygen reduction reaction, wh

A new fluorogenic based aminonaphthalimide-functionalized Fe(3)O(4)@SiO(2) core/shell magnetic nanoparticles 1 has been prepared, and its abilities to sense and separate metal ions were evaluated by fluorophotometry. The nanoparticles 1 exhibited a high affinity and selectivity for Hg(2+) and CH(3)Hg(+) ions over competing metal ions.

The efficacy of a variety of polyoxometalate anions in selectively precipitating the infectious isoform of the prion protein (PrPSc) over the normal, cellular protein (PrPC) was tested as a means of improving the sensitivity of a conformation-dependent immunoassay (CDI). Experiments utilizing neutralized aqueous solutions containing MgCl2.6H2O and Na2H[PW12O40] (1) indicated that use of the former is detrimental to selectivity, while use of the latter gives optimal selectivity at a concentration

A layered gadolinium hydroxychloride (LGdH), [Gd2(OH)5(H2O)x]Cl, was synthesized from an aqueous solution of GdCl3.6H2O. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the selected area electron diffraction (SAED) studies showed that this compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic structure (a = 12.88(4) A, b = 7.30(2) A, and c = 8.46(3) A) which is isostructural with [Eu2(OH)5(H2O)x]Cl. Interestingly, this layered material was readily dispersed and led to a stable colloidal nanosheet in aqueous medium. The obt
