Data_Sheet_1_Ultrasound-Induced Amino Acid-Based Hydrogels With Superior Mechanical Strength for Controllable Long-Term Release of Anti-Cercariae Drug.docx

Stimulus-responsive hydrogels are significantly programmable materials that show potential applications in the field of biomedicine and the environment. Ultrasound as a stimulus can induce the formation of hydrogels, which exhibit the superior performance of different structures. In this study, we reported an ultrasound-induced supramolecular hydrogel based on aspartic acid derivative N,N′-diaspartate-3,4,9,10-perylene tetracarboxylic acid imide, showing superior performance in drug release. The results show that the driving force of this ultrasonic induced hydrogel could be attributed to hydrogen bonding and π-π interaction. The rheological and cytotoxicity test illustrate excellent mechanical properties and biocompatibility of the hydrogel. The anti-Schistosoma japonicum cercariae (CC) drug release results show large drug loadings (500 mg/ml) and long-term release (15 days) of this hydrogel. This study demonstrates that this hydrogel may serve as a slow-release platform for anti-CC.</p

Bioinspired Superhydrophobic/Superhydrophilic Janus Copper Foam for On-Demand Oil/Water Separation

Superwettable Janus membranes with unique interfacial characteristics have versatile applications in oil/water separation, microfluid transportation, and membrane distillation. However, it remains a significant challenge to simply fabricate three-dimensional (3D) metallic foams with Janus superwettability using a facile and environment-friendly method. In this study, a novel method is present to construct a Janus copper foam (CF) by combining superhydrophobicity and superhydrophilicity into CF. Based on gravity, the water in the light oil (LO)/water mixture can be transported from the superhydrophilic (SHL) side to the superhydrophobic (SHB) side, while the heavy oil (HO) in the HO/water/mixture can be transported from the SHB side to the SHL side. Therefore, cylindrical Janus oil/water separation devices with superior separation efficiency and excellent repeatability can achieve on-demand oil/water separation effortlessly. This design and fabrication method offers a novel avenue for the preparation of Janus interface materials for practical applications in liquid transportation, sensor devices, energy materials, and oil spills

Single Molecule Studies of Cyclic Peptides Using Molecular Matrix at Liquid/Solid Interface by Scanning Tunneling Microscopy

We report in this work the single molecule studies of cyclic peptide, cyclosporine A (CsA), using a molecular network formed by star-shaped oligofluorene (StOF-COOH3) at the liquid/solid interface by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). Individual cyclosporine A can be identified and resolved in the molecular network, and the high-resolution STM images of CsA show polygon-like characteristics with a diameter of approximately 1.7 nm. Furthermore, the complex of CsA and Mg2+ has also been observed to adsorb inside of the molecular matrix. The STM results reveal two adsorption characteristics for the CsA−Mg2+ complex, which is suggestive of asymmetrical configurations of the complex. The difference in binding energy between the two observed adsorption configurations is estimated to be 1.88 kJ·mol−1. These results help set the stage for studying the fine structures and functions of various cyclic peptides at the liquid/solid interface
