Metal–Organic Framework-Based Artificial Organelle Corrects Microenvironment Interference for Accurate Intratumoral Glucose Analysis

Enzymatic catalysis with high efficiency allows them a great prospect in metabolite monitoring in living cells. However, complex tumor microenvironments, such as acidity, H₂O₂, and hypoxia, are bound to disturb catalytic reactions for misleading results. Here, we report a spatially compartmentalized artificial organelle to correct intratumoral glucose analysis, where the zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 immobilized glucose oxidase-horseradish peroxidase cascade core and catalase-directed shell act as signal transduction and guarding rooms respectively. The acid-digested core and stable shell provide appropriate spaces to boost biocatalytic efficiency with good tolerability. Notably, the endogenous H₂O₂ is in situ decomposed to O₂ by catalase, which not only overcomes the interference in signal output but also alleviates the hypoxic states to maximize glucose oxidation. The marked protective effect and biocompatibility render artificial organelles to correct the signal transduction for dynamic monitoring glucose in vitro and in vivo, achieving our goal of accurate intratumoral metabolite analysis.     

Vacuum Ultraviolet Free-Electron Laser Photoionization Mass Spectrometry of Alpha-pinene Ozonolysis

\begin{document}$\alpha$\end{document}-pinene is the most abundant monoterpene that represents an important family of volatile organic compounds. Molecular identification of key transient compounds during the \begin{document}$\alpha$\end{document}-pinene ozonolysis has been proven to be a challenging experimental target because of a large number of intermediates and products involved. Here we exploit the recently developed hybrid instruments that integrate aerosol mass spectrometry with a vacuum ultraviolet free-electron laser to study the \begin{document}$\alpha$\end{document}-pinene ozonolysis. The experiments of \begin{document}$\alpha$\end{document}-pinene ozonolysis are performed in an indoor smog chamber, with reactor having a volume of 2 m\begin{document}$^3$\end{document} which is made of fluorinated ethylene propylene film. Distinct mass spectral peaks provide direct experimental signatures of previously unseen compounds produced from the reaction of \begin{document}$\alpha$\end{document}-pinene with O\begin{document}$_3$\end{document}. With the aid of quantum chemical calculations, plausible mechanisms for the formation of these new compounds are proposed. These findings provide crucial information on fundamental understanding of the initial steps of \begin{document}$\alpha$\end{document}-pinene oxidation and the subsequent processes of new particle formation.

Eigenspace-based source number estimation for direction-of-arrival estimation

A eigenspace-based source number estimation was presented.It projects the estimated covariance matrix of array signal into signal eigen-subspace and noise eigen-subspace, respectively.Using the orthogonality between signal eigen-subspace and noise eigen-subspace, it is easy to differentiate the contribution of signal and noise by using the criterion value,or the magnitude of projection.Like the Direction-of-Arrival(DOA) estimation algorithm,the estimator uses the eigenvalue decomposition of covariance matrix with order M×M,where M is the number of elements,and hence can save much computational burden.To reduce more computational burden,the estimation can be implemented by the decomposition in the real-value space.Computer simulation demonstrates the distribution of criterion value and the performance of the estimation method.The estimation method was also tested with the sonar data,which shows good performances.
