Superhydrophobic and Superoleophilic Miniature Device for the Collection of Oils from Water Surfaces

We develop a simple strategy for the collection of oil spill using a miniature device. The device was enfolded from a sheet of copper mesh with surface superhydrophobicity and superoleophilicity. The copper mesh was fabricated through a simple thermal oxidation and surface modification process. The miniature device adsorbed various oils from the surface of oil–water mixture in its pores while repelling water completely. After the pores were full of oil, only oil could infiltrate into the device through the pores automatically and was finally concentrated into the device, showing its oil–water separating ability. Importantly, the concentrated oil in the device could be taken away by a dropper or pumped out, thus achieving the collection of oil for reuse. Additionally, after the concentrated oil was taken away, the device could be used in the next oil–water separating cycle without apparent decrease of its separation ability. Therefore, the findings in this work may offer a new strategy for the collection and reuse of various kinds of oils and other organic compounds from water surfaces

Superhydrophobic Cu Mesh Combined with a Superoleophilic Polyurethane Sponge for Oil Spill Adsorption and Collection

We present a miniature collector for the adsorption and collection of oil spill. The collector composed of a superhydrophobic copper mesh miniature box embedded with a superoelophilic polyurethane sponge. The superhydrophobic Cu mesh was fabricated by a simple immersing method, and the PU sponge is a commercial available material with superoleophilicity in itself. The miniature collector can adsorb different oils on water surface in the pores of the superhydrophilic PU sponge while repelled water due to the superhydrophobicity of the mesh. In addition, the adsorbed oils could be easily separated from the sponge by squeezing and then be collected for reuse. After the separation of adsorbed oil, the sponge could be used repeatedly with high separation efficiency. Furthermore, the as-prepared Cu mesh possesses stability in various solvents and corrosion resistance in NaCl aqueous solution. The findings might provide a simple method for oils spill cleanup

Potato virus Y (PVY) disease is a global problem that causes significant damage to crop quality and yield. As traditional chemical control methods are ineffective against PVY, it is crucial to explore new control strategies. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a crucial role in plant and animal defense responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. These endogenous miRNAs act as a link between antiviral gene pathways and host immunity. Several miRNAs target plant immune genes and are involved in the virus infection process. In this study, we conducted small RNA sequencing and transcriptome sequencing on healthy and PVY-infected N. benthamiana tissues (roots, stems, and leaves). Through bioinformatics analysis, we predicted potential targets of differentially expressed miRNAs using the N. benthamiana reference genome and the PVY genome. We then compared the identified differentially expressed mRNAs with the predicted target genes to uncover the complex relationships between miRNAs and their targets. This study successfully constructed a miRNA-mRNA network through the joint analysis of Small RNA sequencing and transcriptome sequencing, which unveiled potential miRNA targets and identified potential binding sites of miRNAs on the PVY genome. This miRNA-mRNA regulatory network suggests the involvement of miRNAs in the virus infection process.</p
