This study utilized a hydrothermal method to synthesize various metal-modified rod-like ceria catalysts (Fe, Co, Cu, Ni, La), achieving efficient COS removal at low temperatures. The research identified surface oxygen vacancies and basic sites as critical factors that influence the catalytic performance of COS hydrolysis. The addition of different metals to pristine ceria rods increased the specific surface area, oxygen vacancy content (Ov), and basicity, which enhanced the catalysts' sulfur resistance and stability...

Bacterial infection and immune imbalance are the primary culprits behind chronic wounds in individuals with diabetes, impeding the progression of damaged tissues towards normal healing. To achieve a harmonious balance between pro- and anti-inflammation within these infected areas, herein, we propose a one-two punch strategy for on-demand therapy of diabetes-infected wounds, utilizing an azithromycin (AZM)-hybrid nanocomposite termed GOx@Fex Sy /AZM. During the infective stage, the nanocomposite facilitates the production of ROS, coupled with the burst release of AZM and H2 S gas, effectively dismantling biofilms and achieving rapid sterilization...

Hydrogen sulfide (H2 S), a toxic gas abundant in natural gas fields and refineries, is currently being removed mainly via the Claus process. However, the emission of sulfur-containing pollutants is hard to be prevented and the hydrogen element is combined to water. Herein, we report an electron-mediated off-field electrocatalysis approach (OFEC) for complete splitting of H2 S into H2 and S under ambient conditions. Fe(III)/Fe(II) and V(II)/V(III) redox mediators are used to fulfill the cycles for H2 S oxidation and H2 production, respectively...

Growth performance, nutrient digestibility, fecal microbial count, and fecal noxious gas were assessed in this study...

Leaf senescence is the terminal stage of leaf development, and its initiation and progression are closely controlled by the integration of a myriad of endogenous signals and environmental stimuli. It has been documented that WRKY transcription factors (TFs) play essential roles in regulating leaf senescence, yet the molecular mechanism of WRKY-mediated leaf senescence still lacks detailed elucidation in crop plants. In this study, we cloned and identified a tobacco WRKY TF gene, designated NtWRKY70b , acting as a positive regulator of natural leaf senescence...

Controlled modulation of electronic and magnetic properties in stimuli-responsive materials provides valuable insights for the design of magnetoelectric or multiferroic devices. This paper demonstrates the modulation of electrical and magnetic properties of a semiconductive, paramagnetic metal-organic framework Cu3(C6O6)2 with small gaseous molecules, NH3, H2S, and NO. This study merges chemiresistive and magnetic tests to reveal that the MOF undergoes simultaneous changes in electrical conductance and magnetization that are uniquely modulated by each gas...

In recent years, a number of technologies have emerged to purify biogas into biomethane. This purification entails a reduction in the concentration of polluting gases such as carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide to increase the content of methane. In this study, we used a microalgal cultivation technology to treat and purify biogas produced from organic waste from the swine industry to obtain ready-to-use biomethane. For cultivation and purification, two 22.2 m3 open-pond photobioreactors coupled with an absorption-desorption column system were set up in San Juan de los Lagos, Mexico...

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an important reactive sulfur species that is involved in many biological functions, and H2S imbalances have been indicated as a potential biomarker for various diseases. Different H2S donors have been developed to deliver H2S directly to biological systems, but few reports include donors with optical responses that allow for tracking of H2S release. Moreover, donor systems that use the same chemistry to deliver H2S across a palette of fluorescent responses remain lacking. Here we report five thiol-activated fluorescence turn-on COS/H2S donors that utilize blue, yellow, orange, red, and near infrared-emitting dyes functionalized with an H2S-releasing sulfenyl thiocarbonate scaffold...

UNLABELLED: Setting 7 subsection in abstract Objectives: Necroptosis, a form of programmed cell death, can occur in the placenta of patients with preeclampsia (PE). Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) can inhibit necroptosis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells under the high-glucose-induced injury. Whether H2S can protect trophoblasts against necroptosis underlying PE has not been elucidated. This study was aimed to explore the protective role of H2S in trophoblast cells against necroptosis underlying PE...

Doxorubicin (DOX) is a broad-spectrum, highly effective antitumor agent; however, its cardiotoxicity has greatly limited its use. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenous gaseous transmitter that exerts cardioprotective effects via the regulation of oxidative stress and apoptosis and maintenance of mitochondrial function, among other mechanisms. AP39 is a novel mitochondria-targeted H2S donor that, at appropriate concentrations, attenuates intracellular oxidative stress damage, maintains mitochondrial function, and ameliorates cardiomyocyte injury...

Ornamental crops particularly cut flowers are considered sensitive to heavy metals (HMs) induced oxidative stress condition. Melatonin (MLT) is a versatile phytohormone with the ability to mitigate abiotic stresses induced oxidative stress in plants. Similarly, signaling molecules such as hydrogen sulfide (H2 S) have emerged as potential options for resolving HMs related problems in plants. The mechanisms underlying the combined application of MLT and H2 S are not yet explored. Therefore, we evaluated the ability of individual and combined applications of MLT (100 μM) and H2 S in the form of sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS), a donor of H2 S, (1...

Homocystinuria is a rare disease caused by mutations in the CBS gene that results in a deficiency of cystathionine β-synthase (CBS). CBS is an essential pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzyme in the transsulfuration pathway, responsible for combining serine with homocysteine to produce cystathionine, whose activity is enhanced by the allosteric regulator S-adenosylmethionine (SAM). CBS also plays a role in generating hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a gaseous signaling molecule with diverse regulatory functions within the vascular, nervous, and immune systems...

Noncovalent bonding between atmospheric molecules is central to the formation of aerosol particles and cloud condensation nuclei and, consequently, radiative forcing. While our understanding of O-H⋯B interactions is well developed, S-H⋯B hydrogen bonding has received far less attention. Sulfur- and nitrogen-containing molecules, particularly amines, play a significant role in atmospheric chemistry, yet S-H⋯N interactions are not well understood at a fundamental level. To help characterize these systems, H2S and methyl-, ethyl-, n-propyl-, dimethyl-, and trimethylamine (MA, EA, n-PA, DMA, and TMA) have been investigated using matrix isolation Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and high-level theoretical methods...

As an ideal drug carrier, it should possess high drug loading and encapsulation efficiency and precise drug targeting release. Herein, we utilized a template-guided self-weaving technology of phase-separated silk fibroin (SF) in reverse microemulsion (RME) to fabricate a kind of hyaluronic acid (HA) coated SF nanocage (HA-gNCs) for drug delivery of cancer immunotherapy. Due to the hollow structure, HA-gNCs were capable of simultaneous encapsulation of the anti-inflammatory drug betamethasone phosphate (BetP) and the immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) agent PD-L1 antibody (αPD-L1) efficiently...

Over the past 15 years, there have been numerous fatalities related to working with animal slurry. Working with cattle slurry releases toxic gases, in particular, hydrogen sulphide (H2S), which can cause acute central nervous system toxicity, breathing difficulties, and death if exposed to high concentrations. Real-time measurements of H2S gas were taken over distance and time, during the stirring of cattle slurry on farms. Gas was measured at eight slurry stores with differing typical configurations of indoor or outdoor stores and with or without slatted flooring...

Gaseous signaling molecules (GSMs) including nitric oxide (NO), carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) have presented excellent therapeutic efficacy such as anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial and anti-cancer effects and multiple biomedical applications in recent years. As the three most vital signaling molecules in human physiology, these three GSMs show so intertwined and orchestrated interactions that the synergy of multiple gases may demonstrate a more complex therapeutic potential than single gas delivery...
