Abstract
A novel cellulose composite (denoted as PEI@MMA-1) with porous interconnected structure was prepared by adsorbing methyl cellulose (MC) onto microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and cross-linking polyethyleneimine (PEI) with MCC by the action of epichlorohydrin, which had the excellent adsorption property, wettability and elasticity. The performances of PEI@MMA-1 composite for removing tetracycline (TC), Cu2+ and coexistent pollutant (TC and Cu2+ mixture) were systematically explored. For single TC or Cu2+ contaminant, the maximum adsorption capacities were 75.53 and 562.23 mg/g at 30 °C, respectively, while in the dual contaminant system, they would form complexes and Cu2+ could play a "bridge" role to remarkably promote the adsorption of TC with the maximum adsorption capacities of 281.66 and 253.58 mg/g for TC and Cu2+. In addition, the adsorption kinetics, isotherms and adsorption mechanisms of single-pollutant and dual-pollutant systems have been thoroughly investigated. Theoretical calculations indicated that the amide group of TC molecule with the assistance of Cu2+ interacted with the hydroxyl group of PEI@MMA-1 composite to enhance the TC adsorption capacity. Cycle regeneration and fixed bed column experiments revealed that the PEI@MMA-1 possessed the excellent stability and utility. Current PEI@MMA-1 cellulose composite exhibited a promising application for remediation of heavy metals and antibiotics coexistence wastewater.

Abstract
Efficient discrimination of amino acids (AAs) isomers is of significant importance for life science and analytical chemistry. Here, a dual-mode chiral discrimination strategy is proposed for visual and electrochemical chiral discrimination of tryptophan (Trp) isomers. Shikimic acid chiral ionic liquids (SCIL) is coordinated with copper ions (Cu2+), and the obtained SCIL-Cu2+ can form ternary complexes with the Trp isomers. Owing to the inherent chirality of SCIL and the reverse homochirality of L-Trp and D-Trp, the ternary complex of SCIL-Cu-D-Trp has higher stability than SCIL-Cu-L-Trp, as revealed by the calculated stability constants (K) and changes in Gibbs free energy (ΔG). The difference in the stability can be utilized for the chiral discrimination of L-Trp and D-Trp, resulting in discernible differences in colors and the electrochemical signals of the Trp isomers. Besides Trp, the isomers of phenylalanine (Phe) can also be discriminated by the proposed dual-mode chiral discrimination strategy with the SCIL-Cu2+ complex.

Abstract
In the cardiovascular field, coating containing copper used to catalyze NO (nitric oxide) production on non-degradable metal surfaces have shown unparalleled expected performance, but there are few studies on biodegradable metal surfaces. Magnesium-based biodegradable metals have been applied in cardiovascular field in large-scale because of their excellent properties. In this study, the coating of copper loaded in silk fibroin is fabricated on biodegradable ZE21B alloy. Importantly, the different content of copper is set to investigate the effects of on the degradation performance and cell behavior of magnesium alloy. Through electrochemical and immersion experiments, it is found that high content of copper will accelerate the corrosion of magnesium alloy. The reason is the spontaneous micro-batteries between copper and magnesium with the different standard electrode potentials, that is, the galvanic corrosion accelerates the corrosion of magnesium alloy. Moreover, the coating formed through silk fibroin by the right amount copper not only have a protective effect on the ZE21B alloy substrate, but also promotes the adhesion and proliferation of endothelial cells in blood vessel micro-environment. The production of NO catalyzed by copper ions makes this trend more significant, and inhibits the excessive proliferation of smooth muscle cells. These findings can provide guidance for the amount of copper in the coating on the surface of biodegradable magnesium alloy used for cardiovascular stent purpose.

Abstract
Along with the developing of flexible electronics, there is a strong interest in high performance flexible energy storage materials. As natural carbohydrate polymer, cellulose fibers have potential applications in the area due to their biodegradability and flexibility. However, their conductive and electrochemical properties are impossible to meet the demands of practical applications. In this study, cellulose fibers were combined with polyaniline to develop novel paper-based supercapacitor electrode material. Cellulose fibers were firstly coordinated to Cu(II) and subsequently involved in polymerization of polyaniline. Not only the mass loading of polyaniline was significantly increased, but also an impressive area specific capacitance (2767 mF/cm2 at 1 mA/cm2) was achieved. The developed strategy is efficient, environmentally friendly, and has implications for the development of cellulosic paper-based advanced functional materials.

Abstract
Pollution caused by Copper and hydrogen sulfide pollution has severe adverse effects on the environment and organisms. Real-time, fast and accurate monitoring of Cu2+ and S2- faces serious challenges. In this study, we designed a novel biosensor and synthesized it by mimicking the structure of the main Cu(II)-binding site on bovine serum albumin. As a peptide-based sensor, FGGH (FITC-Gly-Gly-His-NH2) can perform the sequential detection of Cu2+ and S2- by fluorescence and colorimetry. The high water solubility and selectivity make it suitable for monitoring Cu2+ and S2- in environmental water samples with high sensitivity; its limit of detection (LOD) is as low as 1.42 nM for Cu2+ and 22.2 nM for S2-. The paper-based sensing platform of this probe was found to be a promising tool for the on-site visualization of real-time quantitative analysis of Cu2+ and S2- due to its rapid response and recyclable detection characteristics. Additionally, FGGH was successfully used to image Cu2+ and S2- in living cells and zebrafish models with adequate fluorescence stability and low cytotoxicity, providing the first visual evidence of the effect of the interactions between Cu2+ and S2- on the redox homeostasis of organisms.

Abstract
Electrochemically mediated struvite precipitation (EMSP) offers a robust, chemical-free process towards phosphate and ammonium reclamation from nutrients-rich wastewater, i.e., swine wastewater. However, given the coexistence of heavy metal, struvite recovered from wastewater may suffer from heavy metal contamination. Here, we systematically investigated the fate of Cu2+, as a representative heavy metal, in the EMSP process and compared it with the chemical struvite precipitation (CSP) system. The results showed that Cu2+ was 100% transferred from solution to solid phase as a mixture of copper and struvite under pHi 9.5 with 2-20 mg/L Cu2+ in the CSP system, and varying pH would affect struvite production. In the EMSP system, the formation of struvite was not affected by bulk pH, and struvite was much less polluted by co-removed Cu2+ (24.4%) at pHi 7.5, which means we recovered a cleaner and safer product. Specifically, struvite mainly accumulates on the front side of the cathode. In contrast, the fascinating thing is that Cu2+ is ultimately deposited primarily to the back side of the cathode in the form of copper (hydro)oxides due to the distinct thickness of the local high pH layer on the two sides of the cathode. In turn, struvite and Cu (hydro)oxides can be harvested separately from the front and back sides of the cathode, respectively, facilitating the subsequent recycling of heavy metals and struvite. The contrasting fate of Cu2+ in the two systems highlights the merits of EMSP over conventional CSP in mitigating heavy metal pollution on recovered products, promoting the development of EMSP technology towards a cleaner recovery of struvite from waste streams.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heavy metal pollution has become one of the world's most important environmental pollution, especially Hg2+ is enriched, it is easy to enter the human body through the food chain, bind to the sulfhydryl group in the protein, cause mercury poisoning. Traditional methods for detecting Hg2+ have obvious drawbacks, such as poor selectivity and long detection time. Fluorescence detection has attracted attention because of its good sensitivity and specificity detection ability. In previously reported probes for detecting Hg2+, Cu2+ often interferes. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to synthesize a fluorescent probe that can distinguish between Hg2+ and Cu2+. RESULTS We have successfully synthesized the probe DFS, a fluorescent probe that can differentially detect Hg2+ and Cu2+, and the probe DFS has good selectivity and anti-interference ability for Hg2+ and Cu2+. The fluorescence intensity at 530 nm increased rapidly when Hg2+ was detected; during the Cu2+ detection, the fluorescence intensity at 636 nm gradually decreased, fluorescence quenching occurred, and the detection limits of Hg2+ and Cu2+ were 7.29 × 10-9 M and 2.13 × 10-9 M, respectively. Through biological experiments, it was found that probe DFS can complete the fluorescence imaging of Hg2+ and Cu2+ in Staphylococcus aureus and HUVEC cells, which has certain research value in the field of environmental monitoring and microbiology, and the probe DFS has low cytotoxicity, so it also has broad application prospects in the field of biological imaging. In addition, the probe DFS also has good applicability for Hg2+ and Cu2+ detection in actual samples. SIGNIFICANCE AND NOVELTY This is a fluorescent probe that can distinguish between Hg2+ and Cu2+, the fluorescence emission peak appears at 530 nm when Hg2+ is detected; when detecting Cu2+, fluorescence quenching occurs at 636 nm, the fluorescence emission peak distance between Hg2+ and Cu2+ differs by 106 nm. This reduces mutual interference between Hg2+ and Cu2+ during detection, it provides a new idea for the detection of Hg2+ and Cu2+.

Abstract
Abnormal tryptophan (Trp) metabolism can be used as an important indicator of chronic hepatitis, paranoia, Parkinson's disease and other diseases. Deficiency or excessive accumulation of Cu2+ can cause diseases such as Wilson's disease and Alzheimer's disease. Eu-based metal-organic framework (Eu-MOF) was successfully prepared for fluorescence sensing of Trp and Cu2+ in an aqueous solution (pH = 7.4). Eu-MOF showed high selectivity and sensitivity for Trp and Cu2+ with detection limits of 0.22 µM and 0.09 µM and Ksv of 6.17 × 103 M- 1 and 2.37 × 104 M- 1 respectively. Trp and Cu2+ had overlapped UV absorption spectra with that of Eu-MOF and competed for the excitation light source. Trp also attenuated the antennae effect of organic ligands on Eu-MOF, thus quenching the red fluorescence of Eu-MOF. This study provides insights into the application of MOFs in bioanalysis and diagnostics.

Abstract
The inhibitory effects of heavy metals on anammox bacteria (AnAOB) have attracted attention worldwide. However, most are conducted in activated sludge rather than biofilm systems. The toxic effect and resistance response of anammox biofilm are not predictable from those of free-living AnAOB. Zero valent iron (ZVI) has been demonstrated to enhance anammox performance, but whether ZVI can promote AnAOB resistance to heavy metal stress remains unclear. Herein, the toxic effect of copper ions (Cu(II)) on anammox in integrated floating-film activated sludge (IFFAS) process filled with 10 wt% ZVI modified carriers (R1) was investigated. Results indicated half inhibiting concentration (IC50) of Cu(II) in R1 was 9.13 mg/L, which was much higher than that in R0 filled with conventional carriers made of high density polyethylene (HDPE) (3.94 mg/L). Long-term effect of Cu(II) demonstrated that Cu(II) concentrations less than 1.0 mg/L could not inhibit anammox biofilm significantly, whereas R1 performed better anammox process than R0 under the stress of 0.1-1.0 mg/L Cu(II). The ZVI modified carriers induced more extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) to trap Cu(II) to attenuate the toxicity to AnAOB. Besides, the activities of functional enzymes related to anammox (NIR and HDH), as well as heme-c contents, were always higher in R1 than R0 regardless of the Cu(II) dosage. Candidatus Kuenenia was identified as the predominant AnAOB, which had stronger resistance to Cu(II) stress compared to other genera in the IFFAS process. Metal resistance genes (MRGs) analysis identified AnAOB induced multi-responses to resist Cu(II) stress, such as the up-regulation of copC, cutA, cutC, cutF, cueR and cueO, to synthesize more proteins with functions of copper exocytosis, conjugation and oxidation.

Abstract
Copper ion (Cu2+) is not only a transition metal ion but also a significant environmental pollutant. The imbalance of Cu2+ content will threaten the safety of the environment and even life. The portable detection devices based on ratiometric fluorescent probes have garnered increasing attention and acclaim because of their reliable analysis parameters. Therefore, two Cu2+ ratiometric fluorescent probes (RH-1 and RH-2) were developed, which exhibit pronounced fluorescence changes, high sensitivity, excellent selectivity, and large Stokes shift. Both probes are capable of detecting Cu2+ in water and milk samples. It is worth noting that a 3D-printed fluorescence sensing device was constructed using RH-1, and a new 3D-printed copper ion detection kit was developed based on RH-2, enabling on-the-spot estimation of Cu2+ concentration. These devices significantly facilitate Cu2+ detection in daily life. RH-2 has been successfully employed for imaging Cu2+ in living cells and zebrafish. In conclusion, this work provides, for the first time, the 3D-printed ideal tools for detecting Cu2+. It also provides valuable insights for the establishment of on-site portable detection methods for other important substances.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The development of the plant in vitro techniques has brought about the variation identified in regenerants known as somaclonal or tissue culture-induced variation (TCIV). S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM), glutathione (GSH), low methylated pectins (LMP), and Cu(II) ions may be implicated in green plant regeneration efficiency (GPRE) and TCIV, according to studies in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and partially in triticale (× Triticosecale spp. Wittmack ex A. Camus 1927). Using structural equation models (SEM), these metabolites have been connected to the metabolic pathways (Krebs and Yang cycles, glycolysis, transsulfuration), but not for triticale. Using metabolomic and (epi)genetic data, the study sought to develop a triticale regeneration efficiency statistical model. The culture's induction medium was supplemented with various quantities of Cu(II) and Ag(I) ions for regeneration. The period of plant regeneration has also changed. The donor plant, anther-derived regenerants, and metAFLP were utilized to analyze TCIV concerning DNA in symmetric (CG, CHG) and asymmetric (CHH) sequence contexts. Attenuated Total Reflectance-Fourier Transfer Infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy was used to gather the metabolomic information on LMP, SAM, and GSH. To frame the data, a structural equation model was employed. RESULTS According to metAFLP analysis, the average sequence change in the CHH context was 8.65%, and 0.58% was de novo methylation. Absorbances of FTIR spectra in regions specific for LMP, SAM, and GSH were used as variables values introduced to the SEM model. The average number of green regenerants per 100 plated anthers was 2.55. CONCLUSIONS The amounts of pectin demethylation, SAM, de novo methylation, and GSH are connected in the model to explain GPRE. By altering the concentration of Cu(II) ions in the medium, which influences the amount of pectin, triticale's GPRE can be increased.

Abstract
Water contamination caused by heavy metals represents an urgent global issue. Cu2+, a potential trace heavy metal pollutant, can accumulate in the human body through the food chain, leading to excessive levels that give rise to diverse health complications. Hence, in this investigation, a novel and efficacious fluorescent probe named Eu-BTB was developed for the detection of Cu2+, employing 1,3,5-triphenyl(4-carboxyphenyl) (H3BTB) as the ligand and Eu3+ as the metallic framework. The probe demonstrates exceptional fluorescence characteristics. The interaction between the probe ligand BTB and Eu3+ triggers an antenna effect, heightening the emission efficiency of Eu3+ while preserving its intrinsic emission. The introduction of Cu2+ competes with BTB for binding, thus quelling the antenna effect and inducing a fluorescence alteration. Within the concentration range of 0.05-10 μM, the fluorescence intensity-to-Cu2+ concentration ratio exhibits a robust linear correlation, with a remarkably low detection limit of 10 nM and a rapid response time of 3 min. The fluorescent probe has been effectively deployed for the detection of copper ions in water across diverse environmental conditions, with the obtained outcomes being validated via the conventional approach of inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The Eu-BTB probe showcases the advantages of simplicity, swiftness, and broad applicability, thus affirming its potential for the prompt and accurate detection of Cu2+ in diverse environmental water samples.

Abstract
Surgical site infections (SSIs) are mainly caused by Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Staphylococcus epidermidis (S. epidermidis) biofilms. Biofilms are aggregates of bacteria embedded in a self-produced matrix that offers protection against antibiotics and promotes the spread of antibiotic-resistance in bacteria. Consequently, antibiotic treatment frequently fails, resulting in the need for alternative therapies. The present study describes the in vitro efficacy of the Cu(DDC)2 complex (2:1 M ratio of diethyldithiocarbamate (DDC-) and Cu2+) with additional Cu2+ against S. aureus and S. epidermidis biofilms in models mimicking SSIs and in vitro antibacterial activity of a liposomal Cu(DDC)2 + Cu2+ formulation. The in vitro activity on S. aureus and S. epidermidis biofilms grown on two hernia mesh materials and in a wound model was determined by colony forming unit (CFU) counting. Cu2+-liposomes and Cu(DDC)2-liposomes were prepared, and their antibacterial activity was assessed in vitro using the alamarBlue assay and CFU counting and in vivo using a Galleria mellonella infection model. The combination of 35 μM DDC- and 128 μM Cu2+ inhibited S. aureus and S. epidermidis biofilms on meshes and in a wound infection model. Cu(DDC)2-liposomes + free Cu2+ displayed similar antibiofilm activity to free Cu(DDC)2 + Cu2+, and significantly increased the survival of S. epidermidis-infected larvae. Whilst Cu(DDC)2 + Cu2+ showed substantial antibiofilm activity in vitro against clinically relevant biofilms, its application in mammalian in vivo models is limited by solubility. The liposomal Cu(DDC)2 + Cu2+ formulation showed antibiofilm activity in vitro and antibacterial activity and low toxicity in G. mellonella, making it a suitable water-soluble formulation for future application on infected wounds in animal trials.

Abstract
With the utilization of pesticides and fertilizers (e.g. urea), the presence of nitrogen and heavy metals (e.g. copper) can enter and pollute the environment. Biofertilizers can be used to replace chemical fertilizers to increase crop yields and reduce environmental stress. The utilization of hydrogen-oxidizing bacteria (HOB) to be biofertilizers has recently attracted more attention. However, the enrichment of HOB on urea and the effect of copper are undetermined. HOB were successfully enriched using urea in this investigation. The average urea conversion rate (AUCR) was 180.08 mgN/L/d with a hydraulic retention time of 10 h. Microbial community (R1) was dominated by Hydrogenophaga (83.92%), a biofertilizer-type HOB. After addition of 5.47 mg/L Cu2+, the AUCR was decreased by 16%-151.18 mgN/L/d, and the growth of HOB was inhibited by 48%. Meanwhile, inhibition was also reflected by the increase of polysaccharide content (20.27 ± 0.57 to 33.45 ± 2.53 mg/gVSS) and protein content (106.19 ± 19.39 to 125.14 ± 24.73 mg/gVSS) of extracellular polymeric substances in the HOB. The resulting microbial community (R2) was changed to Azospiralium-dominated flora (91.33%). Both enriched microbial communities (R1 and R2) exhibited the abilities of ACC degradation and phosphate solubilization. This study demonstrates that employing urea can directly enrich biofertilizer-type HOB and copper-tolerant HOB can be obtained in a 5.47 mg/L Cu2+ environment. The results provide potential methods to obtain biofertilizer from copper-containing urea wastewater via HOB.

Abstract
The amount of copper ions in the environment has an immediate effect on ecology and food safety, Menkes syndrome and Wilson's disease cause accumulation and deficiency of copper ions in the body, respectively, and neurodegenerative diseases are also closely related to copper ion levels. However, the current copper ion detection technology has a high cost, complex operation, and other disadvantages. In this study, a ratiometric fluorescent probe (RB-DH) was rationally constructed to detect copper ions by coupling benzothiazole to rhodol derivatives. It can be used to determine copper ion concentrations in water samples, agricultural products, cells, and zebrafish. Importantly, due to the reversible response of RB-DH to copper ions, the fluctuation of intracellular copper ion content during the release of copper ion-related drugs (Copper gluconate and D-penicillamine) was successfully monitored with RB-DH for the first time. This study demonstrates RB-DH's potential application in the evaluation of related drug release effects and serves as a guide for the establishment of portable detection techniques for other important substances.

Abstract
This study investigated the removal characteristics of tetracycline (TC) in the presence of copper ions (Cu2+) in aerobic granular sludge by analyzing the TC removal pathway, composition and functional group changes of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), and microbial community structure. The TC removal pathway changed from cell biosorption to EPS biosorption, and the microbial degradation rate of TC was reduced by 21.37% in the presence of Cu2+. Cu2+ and TC induced enrichment of denitrifying bacteria and EPS-producing bacteria by regulating the expression of signaling molecules and amino acid synthesis genes to increase the content of EPS and -NH2 groups in EPS. Although Cu2+ reduced the content of acidic hydroxyl functional groups (AHFG) in EPS, an increase in TC concentration stimulated the secretion of more AHFG and -NH2 groups in EPS. The long-term presence of TC presence of the relative abundances of Thauera, Flavobacterium and Rhodobacter and improved the removal efficiency.

Abstract
In this work, PtCo bimetallic nanoparticles supported on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (PtCo@MWCNTs) nanohybrid was prepared simply and used for the first time as a novel nanozyme in the colorimetric sensing of L-cysteine (L-Cys) and Cu2+. Due to its strong enzyme-like catalytic activity, the prepared PtCo@MWCNTs nanohybrid can catalyze the oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to form ox-TMB without H2O2. Interestingly, the oxidase-like active of PtCo@MWCNTs was effectively suppressed by L-Cys, which could reduce ox-TMB to colorless TMB and lead to a pronounced blue fading, and the absorbance at 652 nm gradually decreased with increasing L-Cys concentration. On the other hand, the nanozyme activity of PtCo@MWCNTs can be recovered due to the complexation between L-Cys and Cu2+. Therefore, a colorimetric method based on PtCo@MWCNTs nanozyme was established to detect L-Cys and Cu2+. The results show that the assay platform has simple, rapid, sensitive performance and good selectivity. The detection limits for L-Cys and Cu2+ are 0.041 μM and 0.056 μM, respectively, coupled with the linearities of 0.01 ~ 60.0 μM and 0.05 ~ 80.0 μM. The successful first application of PtCo bimetal-based nanozyme in colorimetric sensing herein opens a new direction for nanozyme and colorimetric analysis, showing great potential applications.

Abstract
A novel colorimetric/fluorescent probe (AgNPs-GSH-Rh6G2) was prepared by linking silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) with rhodamine 6G derivative (Rh6G2) using glutathione (GSH) as a linker molecule. The prepared probe showed obvious fluorescence change and colorimetric response after adding copper ions. Based on this phenomenon, a colorimetric/fluorescence dual-mode detection method was constructed to recognize copper ions. The linear ranges of fluorescence detection and colorimetric detection were 0.10 to 0.45 mM and 0.15 to 0.65 mM, respectively, and the limit of detection were 0.18 μM and 24.90 μΜ. In addition, the dual-mode probe has achieved satisfactory results in the detection of copper ions in sediment samples. The successful construction of AgNPs-GSH-Rh6G2 not only provide a reliable tool for the detection of copper ions, but also shed light on a new idea for the multi-mode development of the detection platform.

Abstract
Copper-related reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation can lead to neuropathologic degradation associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) according to amyloid cascade hypothesis. A complexing agent that can selectively chelate with copper ions and capture copper ions from the complex formed by copper ions and amyloid-β (Cu - Aβ complex) may be available in reducing ROS formation. Herein, we described applications of guluronic acid (GA), a natural oligosaccharide complexing agent obtained from enzymatic hydrolysis of brown algae, in reducing copper-related ROS formation. UV-vis absorption spectra demonstrated the coordination between GA and Cu(II). Ascorbic acid consumption and coumarin-3-carboxylic acid fluorescence assays confirmed the viability of GA in reducing ROS formation in solutions containing other metal ions and Aβ. Fluorescence kinetics, DPPH radical clearance and high resolution X - ray photoelectron spectroscopy results revealed the reductivity of GA. Human liver hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2) cell viability demonstrated the biocompatibility of GA at concentrations lower than 320 μM. Cytotoxic results of human neuroblastoma (SH-SY5Y) cells verified that GA can inhibit copper-related ROS damage in neuronal cells. Our findings, combined with the advantages of marine drugs, make GA a promising candidate in reducing copper-related ROS formation associated with AD therapy.

Abstract
Developing nanohybrid composition based fluorescent carbon dots (CDs) for ratiometric detection of copper ions is highly appealing. Herein, a ratiometric sensing platform (GCDs@RSPN) for copper ions detection has been developed by loaded green fluorescence carbon dots (GCDs) on the surface of red emission semiconducting polymer nanoparticles (RSPN) through electrostatic adsorption. The GCDs, featuring abundant amino groups, can selectively bind copper ions to induce the photoinduced electron transfer, leading to fluorescence quenching. A good linearity within the range of 0-100 μM is obtained, and the limit of detection (LOD) is 0.577 μM by using obtained GCDs@RSPN as ratiometric probe to detect copper ion. Moreover, the paper-based sensor derived from GCDs@RSPN was successfully applied for the visual detection of Cu2+.

Abstract
Metal ions have active roles in biochemical, industrial, and environmental processes. The design and development of new rapid sensing materials with advanced reasonable, compelling, and convenient, techniques are urgent. Here in this work, we design and develop sensor with the facile amalgamation of the pyrene-based organosilane (5) through a click silylation approach silicon composite for selective detection of Cu2+ ions. Physicochemical and keen methods are employed to perceive the resultant hybrid nanoparticles (H-NPs), and these nanocomposites similarly displayed a strong affection for Cu2+ ions. In addition, the identification restrictions while utilizing 5 and H-NP's towards Cu2+ found in this study are far lower than the WHO rules for drinking water. Further, organosilane (5) shows good antibacterial and antioxidant activity. The antibacterial effects of triazole-based organosilane (5), are evaluated with a molecular docking study with Escherichia coli (IJZQ) was conducted. The selected ligand was revealed to have a reasonable docking score with a binding energy of -8.40 kcal mol-1.

Abstract
Copper (Cu2+), as a heavy metal, accumulates in the human body to a certain extent, which can induce various diseases and endanger human health. Rapid and sensitive detection of Cu2+ is highly desired. In present work, a glutathione modified quantum dot (GSH-CdTe QDs) was synthesized and applied in a "turn-off" fluorescence probe to detect Cu2+. The fluorescence of GSH-CdTe QDs could be rapidly quenched in the presence of Cu2+ through aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ), resulting from the interaction between the surface functional groups of GSH-CdTe QDs and Cu2+ and the electrostatic attraction. In the range of 20-1100 nM, the Cu2+ concentration showed a good linear relationship with the fluorescence decline of the sensor, and the LOD is 10.12 nM, which was lower than the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) defined limit (20 μM). Moreover, aiming to attain visual analysis, colorimetric method was also used for rapidly detecting Cu2+ by capturing the change in fluorescence color. Interestingly, the proposed approach has successfully been applied for the detection of Cu2+ in real samples (i.e., environment water, food and traditional Chinese medicine) with satisfactory results, which provides a promising strategy for the detection of Cu2+ in practical application with the merits of being rapid, simple and sensitive.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ever-growing tissue regeneration causes pressing need for large population of stem cells. However, extensive cell expansion eventually leads to impaired regenerative potentials. In this study, chromobox protein homolog 7 (CBX7) was overexpressed to rejuvenate late passage dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs-P9). METHODS The recruitment of copper ions (Cu2+)-activated hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) to the CBX7 gene promoter was confirmed by chromatin immunoprecipitation assay. Functions subsequent to Cu2+-induced or recombinant overexpression of CBX7 on proliferation, multipotency, odontoblastic differentiation and angiogenesis were investigated in vitro, while murine subcutaneous transplantation model was used to further detect the effects of Cu2+-induced CBX7 overexpression in vivo. RESULTS Our data displayed that CBX7 overexpression maintain proliferation and multipotency of DPSCs-P9 almost as strong as those of DPSCs-P3. Both gene level of odontoblast-lineage markers and calcium precipitation were nearly the same between CBX7 overexpressed DPSCs-P9 and normal DPSCs-P3. Moreover, we also found upregulated expression of vascular endothelial growth factor in DPSCs-P9 with CBX7 overexpression, which increased the number of capillary-like structures and migrating co-cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells as well. These findings indicate CBX7 as an effective factor to rejuvenate late passage stem cells insusceptible to cell expansion. Cu2+ has been proved to achieve CBX7 overexpression in DPSCs through the initiation of HIF-1α-CBX7 cascade. Under Cu2+ stimulation since P3, DPSCs-P9 exhibited ameliorated regenerative potential both in vitro and in vivo. CONCLUSION Long-term stimulation of Cu2+ to overexpress CBX7 could be a new strategy to manufacture large population of self-renewing stem cells.

Abstract
Bacterial overgrowth in injured wounds causes wound infection and excessive inflammation, leading to delayed wound healing. Successful treatment of delayed infected wound healing demands dressings, which can inhibit bacterial growth and inflammation and simultaneously induce vascularization, collagen deposition, and re-epithelialization of wounds. In this study, bacterial cellulose (BC) deposited with Cu2+-loaded phase-transited lysozyme (PTL) nanofilm (BC/PTL/Cu) was prepared for healing infected wounds. The results confirm that PTL were successfully self-assembled on BC matrix, and Cu2+ were loaded into PTL through electrostatic coordination. The tensile strength and the elongation at break of the membranes were not significantly changed after modification with PTL and Cu2+. Compared with BC, the surface roughness of BC/PTL/Cu significantly increased while the hydrophilicity decreased. Moreover, BC/PTL/Cu displayed slower release rate of Cu2+ compared with BC directly loaded with Cu2+. BC/PTL/Cu exhibited good antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. By controlling copper concentration, BC/PTL/Cu were not cytotoxic to mouse fibroblast cell line L929. In vivo, BC/PTL/Cu accelerated wound healing and promoted re-epithelialization, collagen deposition, and angiogenesis while inhibiting inflammation of the infected full-thickness skin wounds of rats. Collectively, these results demonstrate that BC/PTL/Cu composites are promising dressings for healing infected wounds.

Abstract
A new rhodamine B derivative (RDB) was synthesized and utilized for the colorimetric detection of copper ions (Cu2+). This chemosensor utilized a paper strip as a support and a smartphone as a detector for on-site quantitative detection of Cu2+ in water samples. Silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) were investigated as the modifier nanoparticles to achieve uniform color on the paper strip and showed a color response 1.9-fold higher than the one without SiNPs. The RDB chemosensor-based paper strip provided high selectivity toward Cu2+ with a detection limit of 0.7 mg/L, and the working concentrations for Cu2+ ranged from 1 to 17 mg/L. Parallel analyses of eight drinking water samples were conducted by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy. The results were in good agreement, indicating the practical reliability of the established method with a short assay time and high selectivity. These indicate its great potential for on-site detection of Cu2+.

Abstract
Cationic exchange resins (CERs) were applied for purification and clarifying process of radioactive wastewater in nuclear industry, which was a kind of sulfur-containing organic material. Molten-salt oxidation (MSO) method can be applied for the treatment of spent CERs and the absorption of acid gas (such as SO2). The experiments about the molten salt destruction of the original resin and Cu ions doped resin were conducted. The transformation of organic sulfur in Cu ions doped resin was investigated. Compared with the original resin, the content of tail gas (such as CH4, C2H4, H2S and SO2) released from the decomposition of Cu ions doped resin was relatively high at 323-657 °C. Sulfur elements in the form of sulfates and copper sulfides were fixed in spent salt through XRD analysis. The XPS result revealed that the portion of functional sulfonic acid groups (-SO3H) in Cu ions doped resin was converted into sulfonyl bridges (-SO2-) at 325 °C. With the enhancement of temperature, sulfonyl bridges (-SO2-) were further decomposed to sulfoxides sulfur (-SO-) and organic sulfide sulfur. The destruction of thiophenic sulfur to H2S and CH4 was prompted by copper ions in copper sulfide. Sulfoxide were oxidized to the sulfone sulfur in molten salt. Sulfones sulfur consumed by reduction of Cu ions at 720 °C was more than it produced by oxidation of sulfoxide through XPS analysis, and the relative proportion of sulfone sulfur was 16.51%.

Abstract
In the water purification field, heavy metal pollution is a problem that causes severe risk aversion. This study aimed to examine the disposal of cadmium and copper ions from aqueous solutions by a novel Fe3O4/analcime nanocomposite. A field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and X-ray diffraction were used to characterize the synthesized products. The FE-SEM images showed that the analcime and Fe3O4 samples consist of polyhedral and quasi-spherical shapes with average diameters of 923.28 and 28.57 nm, respectively. Besides, the Fe3O4/analcime nanocomposite consists of polyhedral and quasi-spherical shapes with average diameters of 1100.00 nm. The greatest uptake capability of the Fe3O4/analcime nanocomposite toward the copper and cadmium ions is 176.68 and 203.67 mg/g, respectively. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir equilibrium isotherm best describe the uptake of copper and cadmium ions using the Fe3O4/analcime nanocomposite. The uptake of copper and cadmium ions using the Fe3O4/analcime nanocomposite is exothermic and chemical in nature.

Abstract
Copper ions have a very important role in human health, industrial and agricultural production. Herein, lanthanide ternary complex of 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid (DPA)-Eu3+-polyethyleneimine (PEI) as a fluorescent probe was thus fabricated for highly sensitive and selective detection of copper ions. PEI itself is non-fluorescent, the PEI-Eu3+complex is also non-fluorescent, and PEI has specific recognition to copper ions due to its higher affinity ability to copper ion than other metal ions. It was found that Cu2+ ions cannot quench the characteristic fluorescence of Eu3+ in the DPA-Eu3+ system, while in the DPA-Eu3+-PEI system, Cu2+ ions can greatly quench the characteristic fluorescence of Eu3+ due to photoinduced electron transfer (PET). The luminescent and quenching mechanism was also discussed in detail. The DPA-Eu3+-PEI probe not only has high sensitivity and selectivity, but also has very rapid fluorescence response and the response time is only 1 min. A good linear relationship between the fluorescence ratios of F0/F and the concentrations of Cu2+ was obtained in the range of 0.02 ∼ 10.0 μM (R2 = 0.998), and the limit of detection (LOD) is 8.0 nM. The probe was successfully applied for the detection of Cu2+ ions in the lake and river water samples, wastewater and urine samples. This work may provide a new strategy for fabricating simple and effective fluorescence probe and a promising application for the rapid and on-site detection in environmental monitoring and biological fluids.

Abstract
Anions and cations have a key role in our normal life. Cu2+ ion is a crucial trace element accountable for the part of several cellular enzymes and proteins, including cytochrome c oxidase, dopamine monooxygenase, Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase, and ceruloplasmin. WHO has found the extreme acceptable level of Cu2+ ions in drinking water is up to 2.0 ppm. Excess use of Cu2+ ions is associated with various human genetic disorders. Thus, the visualization of Cu2+ ions to avoid its toxic effects in chemical and biological systems is significant. In this review we have summarized sensors based on catalytic hydrolysis of picolinate to detect Cu2+ ions. The sensors based on hydrolysis of picolinate are very selective as compared to the other sensors for Cu2+ ions detection. We have focused on describing the structure, spectral properties, detection limits, and bioimaging model of the sensors.

Abstract
This study underlines a latest approach of preparing nitrogen carbon nanoparticles fused on zinc oxide nanoparticle nanocomposite (N-CNPs/ZnONP nanocomposite) for the uptake of copper ions (Cu2+) from wastewater using a sol gel method. The metal loaded adsorbent was then applied in the latent fingerprint application. N-CNPs/ZnONP nanocomposite proved to be a good sorbent for the optimal adsorption of Cu2+ at pH 8 and 1.0 g/L dosage. Langmuir isotherm best fitted the process with the maximum adsorption capacity of 285.71 mg/g that was superior to most values reported in other studies for the removal of Cu2+. At 25 °C, the adsorption was spontaneous and endothermic. Furthermore, Cu2+-N-CNPs/ZnONP nanocomposite revealed to be sensitive and selective for latent fingerprint (LFP) identification on a variety of porous surfaces. As a result, it is an excellent identifying chemical for latent fingerprint recognition in forensic science.

Abstract
The copper ion was detected rapidly by a novel sensing membrane in this paper for its damage to health and the environment. CdSe/ZnS QDs modified polyethersulfone membrane (QDs@PESM) was made by phase-inversion method using a membrane separation technique and quantum dots (QDs). When the sample passed through the membrane, the copper ions in the sample caused the membrane's fluorescence to be quenched. The fluorescence quenching value of the membrane is used to calculate the concentration of copper ions. With R2= 0.9964, Cu2+could be quantitatively detected over a wide concentration range (10-1000 μg/L). The method's LOD and LOQ were 4.27 and 14.23 μg/L, respectively. When the CdSe/ZnS QDs@PESM was used to analyze Cu2+ in various real drinks, including well water, baijiu, orange juice, beer, and milk, the recovery ranged from 79.1 to 123.9%, indicating that the CdSe/ZnS QDs@PESM can be used as a rapid, simple and reliable method to determine Cu2+ in various matrices.

Abstract
Microorganisms induced wound infection and the accompanying excessive inflammatory response is the daunting problems in wound treatment. Due to the lack of corresponding biological functions, traditional wound dressings cannot effectively protect the wound and are prone to induce local infection, excessive inflammation, and vascular damage, resulting in prolonged unhealing. Here, a mussel-inspired strategy was adopted to prepare a multifunctional hydrogel created by H2O2/CuSO4-induced rapid polydopamine (PDA) deposition on carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC)/sodium alginate (Alg) based hydrogel, termed as CAC/PDA/Cu(H2O2). The prepared CAC/PDA/Cu(H2O2) hydrogel features excellent biocompatibility, adequate mechanical properties, and good degradability. Moreover, the CAC/PDA/Cu(H2O2) hydrogel can not only realize antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory effects, but also promote angiogenesis to accelerate wound healing in vitro thanks to the composite PDA/Cu(H2O2) coatings. Significantly, CAC/PDA/Cu(H2O2) hydrogel illustrates excellent therapeutic effects in Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) induced-rat infection models, which can efficiently eliminate MRSA, dramatically reduce inflammatory expression, promote angiogenesis, and ultimately shorten the wound healing time. CAC/PDA/Cu(H2O2) hydrogel exhibited the best wound healing rate on days 7 (80.63 ± 2.44 %), 11 (92.45 ± 2.26 %), and 14 (97.86 ± 0.66 %). Thus, the multifunctional hydrogel provides a facile and efficient approach to wound management and represents promising potential in the therapy for wound healing.

Abstract
Gold nanoclusters (Au NCs) with luminescence property are emerging as promising candidates in fluorescent methods for monitoring contaminants, but low luminescence efficiency hampers their extensive applications. Herein, GSH-Au NCs@ZIF-8 was designed by encapsulating GSH-Au NCs with AIE effect into metal-organic frameworks, achieving high luminescence efficiency and good stability through the confinement effect of ZIF-8. Accordingly, a fluorescent sensing platform was constructed for the sensitive detection of copper ions (Cu2+) and organophosphorus pesticides (OPs). Firstly, the as-prepared GSH-Au NCs@ZIF-8 could strongly accumulate Cu2+ due to the adsorption property of MOFs, accompanied by a significant fluorescence quenching effect with a low detection limit of 0.016 μM for Cu2+. Besides, thiocholine (Tch), the hydrolysis product of acetylthiocholine (ATch) by acetylcholinesterase (AchE), could coordinate with Cu2+ by sulfhydryl groups (-SH), leading to a significant fluorescence recovery, which was further used for the quantification of OPs owing to its inhibition to AChE activity. Furthermore, a hydrogel sensor was explored to accomplish equipment-free, visual, and quantitative monitoring of Cu2+ and OPs by a smartphone sensing platform. Overall, this work provides an effective and universal strategy for enhancing the luminescence efficiency and stability of Au NCs, which would greatly promote their applications in contaminants monitoring.

Abstract
The amino-hypophosphite polyampholyte (AHP) obtained from cheap and safe building blocks lacks a typical ion-scavenger matrix derived from crude-oil intermediates like poly(divinylbenzene), which is an advantage to commercial solutions. AHP is characterised by sorption capacity comparable to some ion scavengers available on the market, as it was found that its maximum capacity in the temperature range from 298 K to 328 K varies between 114 and 146 mg Cu(II) g-1 of dry AHP. The possible application of the AHP in the Cu(II) removal process from galvanic effluent was investigated. The results show that it is possible to achieve a good removal rate for model wastewater. The inlet Cu2+ concentrations of model wastewater were 6.4 mg Cu(II) dm-3 and 36,2 mg Cu(II) dm-3, acidic and basic galvanic wastewater respectively. After the removal process concentrations were lowered to 1.3 mg Cu(II) dm-3 and 5.1 mg Cu(II) dm-3, for acidic and basic galvanic wastewater respectively. It was found that the presence of Ca(II) and Na(I) did not significantly influence the Cu(II) removal process. The obtained results indicate that the prepared more environmentally safe ion scavenger can be applicable in a wide range of metal ion removal processes.

Abstract
Copper ions are widely present in water environment and are involved in various biochemical reaction processes, causing irreversible damage to the human body. In this study, we design and establish a self-powered miniature single-chamber microbial fuel cell (SCMFC) reactor using xurography technology. Optimal volume of 188 μL is obtained by controlling the distance between the anode and cathode. Copper ions in two concentration gradients are tested and good linear response curves are obtained. The opposite responses to copper ions in the trace concentration range (0-0.4 mg/L) and high concentration range (1.0-8.0 mg/L) are observed. The results show that at trace concentration range, the inhibitory effect of copper ions on the biofilm activity of micro-SCMFC is dominant; while high concentration copper ions are involved in chemical reactions that produce Cu2O, which may act as a catalyst and promote electron transfer. A good linear response to trace concentration (0-0.4 mg/L) of copper ions with detection limits of 0.05 mg/L is obtained in this study. It could be used in drinking water for trace copper ion detection. The investigation of the mechanisms provides the scientific basis for the design of the efficient detection of copper ions by SCMFC.

Abstract
With the wide use of copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) in various industrial and commercial applications, they inevitably enter the aquatic environment. However, their behavior in the aquatic environment and potential toxicity to aquatic organisms remain little known. In this study, we investigated the behavior of CuNPs in freshwater, as well as the toxicity and bioaccumulation of CuNPs and copper sulfate (CuSO4), used as a positive control for copper ions toxicity, in red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii). The results showed that CuNPs released copper ions into freshwater and aggregated rapidly in freshwater, and their release of copper ions and aggregation slowed down at a higher concentration of CuNPs. The calculated 72-h LC50 values for crayfish were 1.18 and 0.54 mg/L for CuNPs and CuSO4, respectively. Cu accumulation in the gill and hepatopancreas from CuSO4 treatments was significantly higher than that from CuNPs, and the highest Cu bioaccumulation level in crayfish was found in the gill, followed by hepatopancreas and muscle with the exposure of copper. The activities of the antioxidative enzymes in the crayfish significantly decreased after exposure to CuNPs for 48 h, compared to the control (without CuNPs or CuSO4). Histological examination revealed that there was no significant alteration of hepatopancreas in the crayfish exposed to CuNPs. Meanwhile, the growth of crayfish was not significantly inhibited by CuNPs. These results suggested that CuNPs exposure can induce oxidative stress in the crayfish, gill is the main tissue for their accumulation, and their toxicity is mainly caused by the released copper ions.

Abstract
On-site screening of copper ions in body fluid plays a critical role in monitoring human health, especially in heavy pollution areas. In this study, we have developed a hybrid 3D printed integrated microdevice for the determination of copper ions in human body fluids. A fixed and low volume of sample was detected by using the integrated microdevice without any preprocessing. The hybrid channel enables sample uniform mixing and quantitative dilution with buffer solution by inducing the “horseshoe vortex” phenomenon. The electrolytic microcell based on the flow detection system shows a more effective copper ion reaction ratio and, as a result, a better sensitivity. The simulation of the finite element method (FEM) determined the relevant optimum parameters of the hybrid channel and the microcell. The design, fabrication, and detection procedure of the integrated microdevice are here illustrated. The microdevice presented superior detection properties towards copper ions. The calibration curves covered two linear ranges varying from 20 to 100 ppb and 100 to 400 ppb, respectively. The limit of detection was estimated to be 15 ppb (S/N = 3). The relative standard deviation of the peak current measurements was 2.26%. The designed microdevice was further applied to detect copper ions in practical samples (calf serum sample and synthetic human urine sample) using a standard addition method, and the average recovery was found to be 95–104%. The performance of copper ion detection with the integrated microdevice was consistent with that of the inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) in the same practical samples, demonstrating significant practicality in the test of body fluidics. The portable integrated microdevice is an excellent choice for on-site detection and has a promising prospect in the point-of-care testing (POCT) applications.

Abstract
In response to environmental information received by olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs), fish display different behaviors that are crucial for reproduction and survival. Damage to OSNs from direct exposure to environmental contaminants can disrupt fish olfaction. Copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) are neurotoxic contaminants which can impair fish olfactory function. However, it is uncertain if CuNP-induced olfactory dysfunction is reversible. Here, we compared the recovery of rainbow trout olfactory mucosa after being exposed to CuNPs or dissolved copper (Cu2+). Following a 96 h exposure to CuNPs or Cu2+, recovery was tested 14 min and 7 days after exposure using electro-olfactography (EOG). Results indicated the 14 min recovery period was not sufficient to improve the olfactory sensitivity in either Cu treatment. After 7 days of transition to clean water, olfactory mucosa was able to recover from Cu2+-induced dysfunction, while no recovery was observed in the CuNP-exposed OSNs. This olfactory dysfunction in the CuNP treatment was observed when no Cu was significantly accumulated in the olfactory mucosa after the recovery period. The transcript abundances of a subset of genes involved in olfactory signal transduction (OST) were downregulated in the CuNP-exposed fish after the 7-day recovery period. These results revealed that odorant reception through OST cascade remained impaired over the recovery period in the CuNP-treated OSNs. The ion regulation gene transcripts were not dysregulated in either Cu treatment, which suggests that neural ion balance was not affected following the recovery period. Collectively, our findings revealed the CuNP-induced olfactory dysfunction was irreversible after the 7-day recovery period. Given the importance of olfaction in crucial aspects of fish life, it is likely that the CuNP-induced impairment of odorant reception pose risks to the survival of fish.

Abstract
As an emerging contamination in the ocean, microplastics can act as effective vectors of pollutants, the ecological risks caused by the combined pollution of microplastics and other pollutants have attracted growing attention. In this work, Copper (Cu(II)) was chosen as the classic pollutant, polystyrene (PS) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) pellets were used as the typical marine microplastics, the adsorption performance of Cu(II) on PS and PET beads was investigated by adsorption kinetics and isotherm experiments, and other influencing conditions, such as pH, salinity, coexisting heavy metals ions and aging treatment, were evaluated. The results indicated that the adsorption behavior of Cu(II) on PS and PET was spontaneous and endothermic in the simulated seawater environment, and the batch experimental data can be effectively described by pseudo-second-order model and Freundlich isothermal model. Besides, the adsorption capacity of microplastics for Cu(II) was the best at pH 7, the change of salinity had no obvious effect on the adsorption in the natural marine environment. Moreover, co-existence of lead (Pb(II)) exhibited evident impacts on Cu(II) sorption onto PS and PET, which confirmed the adsorption competition effect between them. Additionally, high temperature aging treatment of microplastics in different environments for different duration time could obviously affect the properties of microplastics. It was found that the microplastics after being exposed to high temperature environment in the air for 168 h showed relatively stronger adsorption amount for Cu(II). In summary, these findings suggested that electrostatic interaction and distributed diffusion mechanisms may be the main mechanisms of adsorption, while no new functional groups were generated after the adsorption, indicating that physisorption may dominate the adsorption performance of PS and PET pellets for Cu(II). This study provides supplementary insights into the role of microplastics as carriers of heavy metals in the marine environment.

Abstract
The combined pollution of heavy metals and organic pollutants in water body has become one of vital environmental issues. Herein, a series of BiVO4/rGO/g-C3N4 nanocomposites were synthesized for concurrent removals of organic pollutant and heavy metal. Results showed that using the optimized photocatalyst BiVO4/rGO/g-C3N4-28, tetracycline (TC) removal of 87.3% and copper (Cu (II)) removal of 90.6% were achieved under visible-light irradiation within 3 h, respectively; much higher than those using BiVO4 and g-C3N4. More importantly, synergistic effect of TC and Cu (II) removals occurred on the surface of BiVO4/rGO/g-C3N4 in the TC-Cu (II) coexistence condition. Additionally, the ·OH and ·O2- were the most important active species for TC oxidation, while photogenerated electrons were the most responsible for Cu (II) reduction. Results of various characterizations and electron spin resonance test demonstrated that BiVO4/rGO/g-C3N4 was a Z-scheme photocatalyst. Based on the identified intermediates, possible degradation pathways and mechanisms for photocatalytic degradation of TC were proposed. This study advances the development and mechanism of photocatalysts for collaborative removal of pollutants.

Abstract
In this paper, a new and effective diaminopyrimidine-based chemosensor (DAPCS) was developed for the highly selective and ultra-sensitive detection of Cu2+ ion in aqueous media and living cell. Characterization and structure determining of DAPCS was determined by UV-Vis, FTIR and NMR analyses. It is observed that DAPCS and Cu (II) forms a ligand to metal charge transfer (LMCT) complex which produces distinguishable red color. The results also indicate that the DAPCS easily interacts with Cu2+ ion to form a 1:1 stoichiometry complex (DAPCS -Cu2+), resulting in a bathochromic shift in absorption maximum (429 nm to 449 nm) and remarkable quenching fluorescence intensity at the wavelength of 501 nm in DMSO-H2O solution. Furthermore, the detection limit of DAPCS towards Cu2+ was calculated to be 3.19 µM. Meanwhile, DAPCS was applied as fluorescent probe for detection of Cu2+ ions with the detection limit of 0.014 µM. The optimal pH range of probe DAPCS for quantitative analysis of Cu2+ ions was 9-11, which renders it suitable for detection of Cu2+ under physiological conditions. Additionally, the DAPCS could be applied to detect Cu2+ in real water samples and in HeLa cells, indicating the practical uses of DAPCS in real analyses.

Abstract
A new dual-mode ratiometric fluorescence and colorimetric probe for selective determination of Cu2+ was developed based on blue-emission sulfur quantum dots (SQDs) and yellow-emission carbon quantum dots (CQDs). The fluorescence and absorbance of CQDs increased in the presence of Cu2+ due to the Cu2+ -oxidized o-phenylenediamine group on the surface of the CQDs. Because of the inner filter effect between SQDs and CQDs-Cu2+, the fluorescence response of SQDs decreased following the introduction of Cu2+. Furthermore, in the presence of Cu2+, the dual-mode SQD-CQD probe showed visible color changes under both ultraviolet light and sunlight. Under optimal conditions, the dual-mode probe was used to quantitatively detect Cu2+ with a linear range of 0.1-5.0 μM for ratiometric fluorescence and colorimetry, with a limit of detection of about 31 nM and 47 nM, respectively. Finally, the dual-mode probe was used for the determination of Cu2+ in practical samples to expand the practical application, and the difference between ratiometric fluorescence and colorimetric methods was compared. The recovery results confirmed the high accuracy of the dual-mode probe, showing that it has immense potential for sensitive and selective detection of Cu2+ in practical samples.

Abstract
With the rapid growth of the world's informatics innovation, printed circuit boards (PCBs) processing produces wastewaters with copper and nickel ions. This study aims to remove and recover copper and nickel ions from synthetic PCB wastewater using a fluidized-bed homogeneous granulation process (FBHGP). FBHGP is an advanced green technology that removes copper and nickel and transforms the sludge into a hard granule. The impacts on the removal and granulation of copper and nickel of the initial operating pH, molar ratio (MR) of precipitant to metal, and precipitant flow rate have been evaluated. The highest copper removal was attained at 97% at pH of 6.5 and 98% copper removal at an MR of 2.0 and 10 mL·min-1. A 93% copper granulation was achieved at the same pH, while a 94% copper granulation was also achieved at the same MR and precipitant flow rate. At a pH of 7.5, 85% nickel removal and 74% granulation were attained for a nickel. At an MR of 1.75, 82% and 74% were the highest removal and granulation. While at 25 mL·min-1, the highest removal was 83%, and 73% nickel granulation was achieved. Copper has been successfully recovered from synthetic PCB wastewater using FBHGP. At the same time, nickel needs a multi-step FBR, which is more suitable for the recovery of nickel under the same conditions applied during the same period.

Abstract
Copper sulfate is a widely used agent to control insects, bacteria and algae for fishery. However, excess amount of copper ions in water accumulate in aquatic products through the ecological cycle system, highly threatening food safety and public health. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a rapid and efficient method for the determination of copper content in aquatic products. In this study, we developed a label-free biosensor for Cu(II) based on a graphene field-effect transistor gated by structure-switching aptamer probes (SSA-GFET) against Cu(II) we obtained before. The detection mechanism of the biosensor is attributed to the surface charge shift and the potential change of the gate electrode upon the specific binding of Cu(II). The SSA-GFET biosensor has a low detection limit of 10 nM and a linear range of 10 nM to 3 μM to Cu(II). In addition to the excellent selectivity to Cu(II), the biosensor also showes the advantage of high recovery rate for detection of Cu(II) in real fish samples. Because of the detection characteristics of label-free SSA-GFET, it has great advantages in the field of food safety and environmental detection.

Abstract
Copper ion (Cu2+) is an essential part of the living organisms. Cu2+ ions play a vital role in many biotic processes. An abnormal amount of Cu2+ ions may result in serious diseases. Herein, a novel "fluorescent ON" probe NC-Cu to trace minute levels of Cu2+ ions in presence of various biological active species has been developed. Lysosomal cells targeting group (Morpholine) was added to the probe. The spectral properties of probe NC-Cu were recorded in HEPES buffer (0.01 M, pH = 7.4, comprising 50% CH3CN, λex = 430 nm, slit: 5 nm). The synthesized probe NC-Cu work based on copper promoted catalytic hydrolysis of hydrazone and shows remarkable fluorescence enhancement. The reaction of the probe with Cu2+ ions was completed within 20 min. An excellent linear relationship (R2 = 0.9952) was found and the limit of detection (LOD, according to the 3σ/slope) for Cu2+ ions was calculated to be 5.8 µM. Furthermore, NC-Cu was effectively functional in the living cells (KYSE30 cells) to trace Cu2+ ions.

Abstract
Copper (Cu)-bearing stainless steel has testified its effectiveness to reduce the risk of bacterial infections. However, its antibacterial mechanism is still controversial. Therefore, three 430 ferritic stainless steels with different Cu contents are selected to conduct deeper research by the way of bacterial inactivation from two aspects of material and biology. Hereinto, electrochemical and antibacterial results show that the increase in Cu content simultaneously improves the corrosion resistance and antibacterial property of 430 stainless steel. In addition, it is found that Escherichia coli (E. coli) on the surface 430 Cu-bearing stainless steel by the dry method of inoculation possesses a rapid inactivation ability. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) aids with ion chelation experiments prove that Cu (I) plays a more crucial role in the contact-killing efficiency than Cu (II), resulting from more production of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Abstract
In this study, naturally abundant and inexpensive bamboo was used to make cheaper activated charcoal for efficient encapsulation of toxic copper (Cu(II)) ion from wastewater. The functionalized bamboo charcoal-Layered double hydroxides (BC-LDHs) composite bio-adsorbent was prepared using co-precipitation method. The composite bio-adsorbent was exploited to eliminate Cu(II) ion with high sensitivity and selectivity from contaminated water. The adsorption parameters including the effect of pH, contact time, adsorbent dose, and effect of initial concentration were optimized in systematic way and the adsorption kinetics and isotherms were investigated for potential use in real sample treatment. The physicochemical properties and morphological structure of the adsorbent were examined using X-ray Diffraction, Scanning Electronic Microscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy and Thermogravimetric Analysis to understand the Cu(II) ion adsorption mechanism. The adsorption results revealed that the BC-LDH could remove almost 100% of Cu(II) ion from aqueous solution at pH range between 3.0 and 6.0 within 30 min. The maximum monolayer adsorption capacity was determined to be 85.47 mg/g based on the Langmuir isotherm. The adsorption equilibrium data were well-fitted by the Langmuir isotherm model (R2 = 0.998) and the experimental kinetic data were supported by the pseudo-second order model (R2 = 0.999). The BC-LDH could be reused without losing its adsorption performance in several cycles after successful regeneration with 0.10 M HCl. The Cu(II) ion removal mechanism was postulated with intercalated ion exchange, surface precipitation and interaction between BC-LDH and surface functionalities. Therefore, the highly functional BC-LDH composite could be a promising adsorbent for efficient Cu(II) ion removal from wastewater.

Abstract
Copper ion (Cu2+), a common corrosion product released from copper pipes, is widely present in water distribution system (WDS). Cu2+ was confirmed to be capable to catalyze the decay of monochloramine (NH2Cl), which is a commonly used disinfectant and need to maintain a minimum concentration in WDS. Cu2+ and NH2Cl form a system in WDS and their interaction with other substances in WDS is unclear. In this study, the performance of Cu2+/NH2Cl system on degradation of trace pollutants, taking carbamazepine (CBZ) as an example, in WDS was investigated, and significant promotion on CBZ degradation was observed. The acceleration was due to the generation of Cl, OH and other oxidants, which were identified by scavenge experiments. CBZ degradation in Cu2+/NH2Cl system was highly pH-dependent, because the catalytic effect of Cu2+ can only work at low pH (Cu2+ precipitating at pH > 6.0). The removal of CBZ increased with the concentration of Cu2+ increasing. Water matrix (NOM, HCO3- and Br-) can inhibit the removal of CBZ in Cu2+/NH2Cl system. Further, five disinfection byproducts (DBPs), namely, trichloromethane (TCM), dichloroacetonitrile (DCAN), dichloroacetone (DCP), trichloronitromethane (TCNM) and trichloroacetone (TCP), were detected in chloramination in the presence/absence of Cu2+. Compared with chloramination without Cu2+, the cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of formed DBPs increased significantly in the presence of Cu2+, indicating that the chemical safety in WDS deserves more attention.
