Abstract
Drug-protein interactions are essential since most administered drugs bind abundantly and reversibly to serum albumin and are delivered mainly as a complex with protein. The nature and strength of drug-protein interactions have a big impact on how a drug works biologically. The binding parameters are useful in studying the pharmacological response of drugs and the designing of dosage forms. Serum albumin is regarded as optimal model for in vitro research on drug-protein interaction since it is the main protein that binds medicines and other physiological components. In this perspective, binary complex have been synthesized and characterized, from vanadium metal and acetylacetone(4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(2-theonyl)-1,3-butanedione). Imidazole, 2-Methyl-imidazole, and 2-Ethyl-imidazole auxiliary ligands were employed for the synthesis of ternary complexes. Additionally, UV absorption and fluorescence emission spectroscopy were used to examine the binding interactions between vanadium complexes and Bovine Serum Albumin. The outcomes of the binding studies and spectral approaches were in strong agreement with one another. These complexes upon inoculation into diabetes-induced Wistar rats stabilized their serum glucose levels within 3 days. From various studies, it was discovered that the ordering of glucose-lowering actions of these metal complexes were equivalent. The vanadium ternary metal complex derived from (4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(2-theonyl)-1,3-butanedione) and imidazole as ligands is the best among the other metal vanadium complexes.

Abstract
Bis(acetylacetonato)oxidovanadium(IV) [(VO(acac)2], generally known as vanadyl acetylacetonate, has been shown to be preferentially sequestered in malignant tissue. Vanadium-48 (48V) generated with a compact medical cyclotron has been used to label VO(acac)2 as a potential radiotracer in positron emission tomography (PET) imaging for the detection of cancer, but requires lengthy synthesis. Current literature protocols for the characterization of VO(acac)2 require macroscale quantities of reactants and solvents to identify products by color and to enable crystallization that are not readily adaptable to the needs of radiotracer synthesis. We present an improved method to produce vanadium-48-labeled VO(acac)2, [48V]VO(acac)2, and characterize it using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with radiation detection in combination with UV detection. The approach is suitable for radiotracer-level quantities of material. These methods are readily applicable for production of [48V]VO(acac)2. Preliminary results of preclinical, small-animal PET studies are presented.

Abstract
The reaction of the vanadyl ion (VO2+) with imidazole-4-carboxylic acid (Im4COOH), imidazole-2-carboxylic acid (Im2COOH) and methylimidazole-2-carboxylic acid (MeIm2COOH), respectively, in the presence of small bioligands (bL) [oxalate (Ox), lactate (Lact), citrate (Cit) and phosphate (Phos)] and high-molecular-weight (HMW) human serum proteins [albumin (HSA) and transferrin (hTf)] were studied in aqueous solution using potentiometric acid-base titrations. The species distribution diagrams for the high-molecular-mass (HMM) proteins with oxidovanadium(IV) under physiological pH were dominated by VO(HMM)2, VOL(HMM) for unsubstituted ligands (L- = Im4COO- and Im2COO-). However, for the N-substituted MeIm2COOH, the species distribution diagrams under physiological pH were dominated by VOL2, VO(HMM)2 and VO2L2(HMM). These species were further confirmed by LC-MS, MALDI-TOF-MS and EPR studies. The glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) action of the complexes was investigated using INS-1E cells at a 1 µM concentration, which was established through cytotoxicity studies via the MTT assay. The neutral complexes, especially VO(MeIm2COO)2, showed promising results in the stimulation of insulin secretion than the cationic [VO(MeIm2CH2OH)2]2+ complex and the vanadium salt. Oxidovanadium(IV) complexes reduced insulin stimulation significantly under normoglycaemic levels but showed positive effects on insulin secretion under hyperglycaemic conditions (33.3 mM glucose media). The islets exposed to oxidovanadium(IV) complexes under hyperglycaemic conditions displayed a significant increase in the stimulatory index with 1.19, 1.75, 1.53, 1.85, 2.20 and 1.29 observed for the positive control (sulfonylurea:gliclazide), VOSO4, VO(Im4COO)2, VO(Im2COO)2, VO(MeIm2COO)2 and VO(MeIm2CH2OH)22+, respectively. This observation showed a potential further effect of vanadium complexes towards type 2 diabetes and has been demonstrated for the first time in this study.

Abstract
Ligands derived from 2-(1-phenylhydrazinyl)pyridine and salicylaldehyde (HL1), 3-methoxysalicylaldehyde (HL2), 5-bromosalicylaldehyde (HL3), and 3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylaldehyde (HL4) react with [VIVO(acac)2] in MeOH followed by aerial oxidation to give [VVO2(L1)] (1), [VVO2(L2)] (2), [VVO2(L3)] (3), and [VVO2(L4)] (4). Complex [VIVO(acac)(L1)] (5) is also isolable from [VIVO(acac)2] and HL1 in dry MeOH. Structures of all complexes were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray and spectroscopic studies. They efficiently catalyze benzyl alcohol and its derivatives' oxidation in the presence of H2O2 to their corresponding aldehydes. Under optimized reaction conditions using 1 as a catalyst precursor, conversion of benzyl alcohol follows the order: 4 (93%) > 2 (90%) > 1 (86%) > 3 (84%) ≈ 5 (84%). These complexes were also evaluated for antifungal and antiproliferative activities. Complex 3 with MIC50 = 16 μg/mL, 4 with MIC50 = 12 μg/mL, and 5 with MIC50 = 16 μg/mL are efficient toward planktonic cells of Candida albicans and Candida tropicalis. On Michigan cancer foundation-7 (MCF-7) cells, they show comparable cytotoxic effects and exhibit IC50 in the 27.3-33.5 μg/mL range, and among these, 4 exhibits the highest cytotoxicity. A similar study on human embryonic kidney cells (HEK293) confirms their less toxicity at lower concentrations (4 to 16 μg/mL) compared to MCF-7.

Abstract
High-resolution crystal structures of lysozyme in the presence of the potential drug VIV O(acetylacetonato)2 under two different experimental conditions have been solved. The crystallographic study reveals the loss of the ligands, the oxidation of VIV to VV and the subsequent formation of adducts of the protein with two different polyoxidovanadates: [V4 O12 ]4- , which interacts with lysozyme non-covalently, and the unprecedented [V20 O54 (NO3 )]n- , which is covalenty bound to the side chain of an aspartate residue of symmetry related molecules.

Abstract
Chlorate (ClO3-) is a toxic oxyanion pollutant from industrial wastes, agricultural applications, drinking water disinfection, and wastewater treatment. Catalytic reduction of ClO3- using palladium (Pd) nanoparticle catalysts exhibited sluggish kinetics. This work demonstrates an 18-fold activity enhancement by integrating earth-abundant vanadium (V) into the common Pd/C catalyst. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and electrochemical studies indicated that VV and VIV precursors are reduced to VIII in the aqueous phase (rather than immobilized on the carbon support) by Pd-activated H2. The VIII/IV redox cycle is the predominant mechanism for the ClO3- reduction. Further reduction of chlorine intermediates to Cl- could proceed via VIII/IV and VIV/V redox cycles or direct reduction by Pd/C. To capture the potentially toxic V metal from the treated solution, we adjusted the pH from 3 to 8 after the reaction, which completely immobilized VIII onto Pd/C for catalyst recycling. The enhanced performance of reductive catalysis using a Group 5 metal adds to the diversity of transition metals (e.g., Cr, Mo, Re, Fe, and Ru in Groups 6-8) for water pollutant treatment via various unique mechanisms.

Abstract
A dinuclear oxidovanadium(V) complex [V2O2L2(OMe)2] (1) was synthesized from N'-(2-hydroxy-5-methylbenzylidene)-4-methylbenzohydrazide (H2L) and VO(acac)2 in MeOH. Reaction of complex 1 with 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyrone (HL') afforded a mononuclear oxidovanadium(V) complex [VOLL'] (2). The hydrazone and both complexes were characterized by IR, UV and 1H NMR spectroscopy, as well as X-ray single crystal determination. X-ray powder diffraction of the complexes was performed. The V atoms in the two complexes are in octahedral coordination. The molecules of complex 2 are linked through non-classical hydrogen bonds of type C-H∙∙∙O to form one-dimensional chains running along the a axis. The biological assay indicates that the complexes have good antimicrobial activities on the bacteria strains P. aeroginosa, S. aureus, B. subtilis and E. coli.

Abstract
New oxidovanadium(V) complexes, VOL1-VOL10, with chiral tetradentate Schiff bases obtained by monocondensation reaction of salicylaldehyde derivatives with 1S,2S-(+)-2-amino-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1,3-propanediol. All complexes have been characterized using different spectroscopic methods, viz. IR, UV-Vis, circular dichroism, one- (1H, 51V) and two-dimensional (COSY, NOESY) NMR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. Furthermore, the catalytic ability of all compounds in the epoxidation of styrene, cyclohexene, and its naturally occurring monoterpene derivatives, i.e., S(-)-limonene and (-)-α-pinene has also been studied, using two different oxidants, i.e., aqueous 30% H2O2 or tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP). In addition, the biological properties of these chiral oxidovanadium(V) compounds, but also cis-dioxidomolybdenum(VI) complexes with the same chiral Schiff bases, were studied. Their cytotoxic and cytoprotective activity studies with the HT-22 hippocampal neuronal cells revealed a concentration-dependent effect in the range of 10-100 μM. Moreover, vanadium(V) complexes, in contrast to cis-dioxidomolybdenum(VI) compounds, demonstrated higher cytotoxicity and lack of cytoprotective ability against H2O2-induced cytotoxicity.

Abstract
Over the last four decades, vanadium compounds have been extensively studied as potential antidiabetic drugs. With the present review, we aim at presenting a general overview of the most promising compounds and the main results obtained with in vivo studies, reported from 1899-2023. The chemistry of vanadium is explored, discussing the importance of the structure and biochemistry of vanadate and the impact of its similarity with phosphate on the antidiabetic effect. The spectroscopic characterization of vanadium compounds is discussed, particularly magnetic resonance methodologies, emphasizing its relevance for understanding species activity, speciation, and interaction with biological membranes. Finally, the most relevant studies regarding the use of vanadium compounds to treat diabetes are summarized, considering both animal models and human clinical trials. An overview of the main hypotheses explaining the biological activity of these compounds is presented, particularly the most accepted pathway involving vanadium interaction with phosphatase and kinase enzymes involved in the insulin signaling cascade. From our point of view, the major discoveries regarding the pharmacological action of this family of compounds are not yet fully understood. Thus, we still believe that vanadium presents the potential to help in metabolic control and the clinical management of diabetes, either as an insulin-like drug or as an insulin adjuvant. We look forward to the next forty years of research in this field, aiming to discover a vanadium compound with the desired therapeutic properties.

Abstract
The fly ash (FA) from the combustion of heavy oil in power stations is characterized by fine particles containing toxic metals. The sample utilized in this study was gathered from the dust precipitators of seven heavy-oil-consuming Iranian power plants. Substantial quantities of heavy metals, particularly vanadium, iron, and nickel, have been detected in the sample, indicating both its potential utility and hazard to the soil and groundwater. The harmful consequences of FA disposal on the environment have led to the adoption of recycling as a treatment approach in this study. The valorization of FA was investigated by producing nickel ferrite (NiFe2O4) and vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) through a novel approach using a combination of pyro-hydrometallurgical processes, which resulted in proposing a recycling closed-loop flowsheet. Roasting was first practiced to form NiFe2O4 by reacting the nickel and iron content of the FA. The NiFe2O4 showed a low dissolution against inorganic acids (H2SO4, HCl, and HNO3). The vanadium content of the FA showed a remarkable recovery in H2SO4 (91%) and HCl (95.6%), while the dissolution of Ni was limited to 16.85% and 17.5%, respectively. The produced NiFe2O4 acted well in response to the magnetic field, and its purity was further increased to 95-96% through a two-stage process consisting of grinding and magnetic separation. The nano-sized spherical NiFe2O4 with saturation magnetization of 34.66 and 30.82 emu. g-1 was obtained from H2SO4 and HCl residues, respectively. The dissolved vanadium was recovered as V2O5 via oxidation-precipitation in sulfate media and oxidation-ammonium precipitation in chloride solution. The purity of V2O5 in sulfate and chloride media was 93% and 98.5%, respectively. Finally, a life cycle assessment (LCA) study was performed on the suggested methods to track the ecological effects of extracting V and Ni from oil combustion FA. According to the performed LCA, H2SO4 was determined as the proper leaching reagent considering the environmental and technical aspects.

Abstract
Vanadium(V) is a highly toxic multivalent, redox-sensitive element. It is widely distributed in the environment and employed in various industrial applications. Interactions between V and (micro)organisms have recently garnered considerable attention. This Review discusses the biogeochemical cycling of V and its corresponding bioremediation strategies. Anthropogenic activities have resulted in elevated environmental V concentrations compared to natural emissions. The global distributions of V in the atmosphere, soils, water bodies, and sediments are outlined here, with notable prevalence in Europe. Soluble V(V) predominantly exists in the environment and exhibits high mobility and chemical reactivity. The transport of V within environmental media and across food chains is also discussed. Microbially mediated V transformation is evaluated to shed light on the primary mechanisms underlying microbial V(V) reduction, namely electron transfer and enzymatic catalysis. Additionally, this Review highlights bioremediation strategies by exploring their geochemical influences and technical implementation methods. The identified knowledge gaps include the particulate speciation of V and its associated environmental behaviors as well as the biogeochemical processes of V in marine environments. Finally, challenges for future research are reported, including the screening of V hyperaccumulators and V(V)-reducing microbes and field tests for bioremediation approaches.

Abstract
The catalytic epoxidation of small alkenes and allylic alcohols includes a wide range of valuable chemical applications, with many works describing vanadium complexes as suitable catalysts towards sustainable process chemistry. But, given the complexity of these mechanisms, it is not always easy to sort out efficient examples for streamlining sustainable processes and tuning product optimization. In this review, we provide an update on major works of tunable vanadium-catalyzed epoxidations, with a focus on sustainable optimization routes. After presenting the current mechanistic view on vanadium catalysts for small alkenes and allylic alcohols' epoxidation, we argue the key challenges in green process development by highlighting the value of updated kinetic and mechanistic studies, along with essential computational studies.

Abstract
Four azo dyes known to form anionic complexes with V(V) were investigated as potential liquid–liquid extraction–spectrophotometric reagents for the antihistamine medication hydroxyzine hydrochloride (HZH). A stable ion-association complex suitable for analytical purposes was obtained with 6-hexyl-4-(2-thiazolylazo)resorcinol (HTAR). The molar absorption coefficient, limit of detection, linear working range, and relative standard deviation in the analysis of real pharmaceutical samples (tablets and syrup) were 3.50 × 104 L mol−1 cm−1, 0.13 μg mL−1, 0.43–12.2 μg mL−1, and ≤2.7%, respectively. After elucidating the molar ratio in the extracted ion-association complex (HZH:V = 1:1), the ground-state equilibrium geometries of the two constituent ions—HZH+ and [VO2(HTAR)]−—were optimized at the B3LYP level of theory using 6-311++G** basis functions. The cation and anion were then paired in four different ways to find the most likely structure of the extracted species. In the lowest-energy structure, the VO2 group interacts predominantly with the heterochain of the cation. A hydrogen bond is present (V–O···H–O; 1.714 Å) involving the terminal oxygen of this chain.

Abstract
The geochemical cycling of vanadium (V) in mining areas has attracted much attention. However, little knowledge was about the effects of tailing colloids on the fate and transport of vanadium in tailing reservoirs which was ignored before. This study investigated the interactions of tailing colloids from vanadium-titanium magnetite with vanadium. Colloid characterization, tailing leaching, adsorption, and column experiments of single and cotransport of tailing colloid with V were conducted. Results show that 98.08% V in the vanadium-titanium magnetite tailing was in the residual state with limited leachable V under various conditions. The adsorption of V to the tailing colloid was via electrostatic attraction and surface complexation on the heterogeneously distributed sorption sites on the colloid surface. The adsorption control step was the diffusion of V into the tailing colloid pores. The increase in pH and the decrease in ionic strength (IS) promoted the single transport of tailing colloid and V in quartz sand columns. In cotransport scenarios, V promoted the transport of tailing colloids via the surface coating effect. In contrast, the transport of V was retarded by the adsorbed tailing colloid on the quartz sand surface. The pre-adsorbed V in the column enhanced the subsequent transport of tailing colloids by electrical repulsion, while the pre-adsorbed tailing colloids facilitated the subsequent transport of V via cotransport of the released colloids with V. The high mobility of the tailing colloid and V and their cotransport in the porous media highly demonstrated the potential V pollution pathways that need to be taken into account.

Abstract
Vanadium-doped α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles (VFO nanoparticles) were prepared by polyol-assisted hydrothermal method. The impact on the structure, optical, magnetic and photocatalytic properties of α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles were studied by varying the vanadium concentration from 1 to 5%. XRD analysis confirms the presence of hematite phase with hexagonal structure and estimates the nanocrystals size as ∼26-38 nm. FESEM and TEM reveal the formation of 3D flower-like morphology bundled with 2D nanoflakes. The estimated band gap energy was in the range 2.01 eV-2.12 eV. XPS study shows the presence of vanadium in V4+ oxidation state in VFO nanoparticles. VSM study shows a non-saturated hysteresis loop with weak ferromagnetic behavior for all the VFO nanoparticles. 5% V doped α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles (5%VFO nanoparticles) exhibited superior visible light driven photocatalytic activity compared to other samples.

Abstract
Among various plastic additives, di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) has been a great concern due to its high leaching potential and harmful effects on both human and the ecosystem. For the effective oxidation and mineralization of DEHP by ozone in the existing TiO2 catalytic processes, the heterogeneous catalyst, vanadium oxide (V2O5)-incorporated TiO2 (V2O5/TiO2), was synthesized. The generation of hydroxyl radicals was promoted by cyclic redox reactions of vanadium atoms in V2O5/TiO2 via the increase of surface oxygen vacancies by the replacement of V5+ species in the lattice of TiO2. The catalytic ozonation in the presence of V2O5/TiO2 exhibited the significantly higher degradation of DEHP with the pseudo-second-order kinetic constant of 1.7 × 105 mM-1min-1 and the removal efficiency of 58.7% after 60 s in 2 mg/L of ozone. The degradation of DEHP was initiated by the shortening of the alkyl-side chain followed by the opening of esterified benzene moieties.

Abstract
The reactions of newly designed lithiated triamidoamines Li3LR (R = iPr, Pen, and Cy2) with VCl3(THF)3 under N2 yielded dinitrogen-divanadium complexes with a μ-N2 between vanadium atoms [{V(LR)}2(μ-N2)] (R = iPr (1) and Pen (2)) for the former two, while not dinitrogen-divanadium complexes but a mononuclear vanadium complex with a vacant site, [V(LCy2)] (R = Cy2 (3)), were obtained for the third ligand. The V-NN2 and N-N distances were 1.7655(18) and 1.219(4) Å for 1 and 1.7935(14) and 1.226(3) Å for 2, respectively. The ν(14N-14N) stretching vibrations of 1 and 2, as measured using resonance Raman spectroscopy, were detected at 1436 and 1412 cm-1, respectively. Complex 3 reacted with potassium metal in the presence of 18-crown-6-ether under N2 to give a hetero-dinuclear vanadium complex with μ-N2 between vanadium and potassium, [VK(LCy2)(μ-N2)(18-crown-6)] (4). The N-N distance and ν(14N-14N) stretching for 4 were 1.152(3) Å and 1818 cm-1, respectively, suggesting that 4 is more activated than complexes 1 and 2. The complexes 1, 2, 3, and 4 reacted with HOTf and K[C10H8] to give NH3 and N2H4. The yields of NH3 and N2H4 (per V atom) were 47 and 11% for 1, 38 and 16% for 2, 77 and 7% for 3, and 80 and 5% for 4, respectively, and 3 and 4, which have a ligand LCy2, showed higher reactivity than 1 and 2.

Abstract
Vanadium-dependent haloperoxidases (VHPOs) from Streptomyces bacteria differ from their counterparts in fungi, macroalgae, and other bacteria by catalyzing organohalogenating reactions with strict regiochemical and stereochemical control. While this group of enzymes collectively uses hydrogen peroxide to oxidize halides for incorporation into electron-rich organic molecules, the mechanism for the controlled transfer of highly reactive chloronium ions in the biosynthesis of napyradiomycin and merochlorin antibiotics sets the Streptomyces vanadium-dependent chloroperoxidases apart. Here we report high-resolution crystal structures of two homologous VHPO family members associated with napyradiomycin biosynthesis, NapH1 and NapH3, that catalyze distinctive chemical reactions in the construction of meroterpenoid natural products. The structures, combined with site-directed mutagenesis and intact protein mass spectrometry studies, afforded a mechanistic model for the asymmetric alkene and arene chlorination reactions catalyzed by NapH1 and the isomerase activity catalyzed by NapH3. A key lysine residue in NapH1 situated between the coordinated vanadate and the putative substrate binding pocket was shown to be essential for catalysis. This observation suggested the involvement of the ε-NH2, possibly through formation of a transient chloramine, as the chlorinating species much as proposed in structurally distinct flavin-dependent halogenases. Unexpectedly, NapH3 is modified post-translationally by phosphorylation of an active site His (τ-pHis) consistent with its repurposed halogenation-independent, α-hydroxyketone isomerase activity. These structural studies deepen our understanding of the mechanistic underpinnings of VHPO enzymes and their evolution as enantioselective biocatalysts.

Abstract
One of the main goals of recent bioinorganic chemistry studies has been to design and synthesize novel substances to treat human diseases. The promising compounds are metal-based and metal ion binding components such as vanadium-based compounds. The potential anticancer action of vanadium-based compounds is one of area of investigation in this field. In this study, we present five oxovanadium(IV) and dioxovanadium(V) complexes as potential PTP1B inhibitors with anticancer activity against the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line, the triple negative MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell line, and the human keratinocyte HaCaT cell line. We observed that all tested compounds were effective inhibitors of PTP1B, which correlates with anticancer activity. [VO(dipic)(dmbipy)]·2 H2O (Compound 4) and [VOO(dipic)](2-phepyH)·H2O (Compound 5) possessed the greatest inhibitory effect, with IC50 185.4 ± 9.8 and 167.2 ± 8.0 nM, respectively. To obtain a better understanding of the relationship between the structure of the examined compounds and their activity, we performed a computer simulation of their binding inside the active site of PTP1B. We observed a stronger binding of complexes containing dipicolinic acid with PTP1B. Based on our simulations, we suggested that the studied complexes exert their activity by stabilizing the WPD-loop in an open position and limiting access to the P-loop.

Abstract
Vanadium-chromium reducing residue was not only a typical solid waste in the steel industry but also a valuable secondary source for recovery of vanadium and chromium. A highly efficient oxidative-alkaline-leaching technology with Na2S2O8 was applied in this work. The effect of experimental factors including m(NaOH)/m(Residue), liquid-to-solid ratio, reaction temperature, m(Na2S2O8)/m(Residue) and reaction time, on the leaching process were investigated. It was showed that 96.3% vanadium was leached out under selected conditions: m(NaOH)/m(Residue) = 0.30, liquid-to-solid ratio of 5 mL/g, reaction time of 60 min, m(Na2S2O8)/m(Residue) = 0.50, reaction temperature of 90°C and stirring rate at 500 rpm, respectively. The leaching kinetics behaviour analysis demonstrated that the controlling step of the reaction was the diffusion of residue through the liquid film, and the Ea for vanadium leaching out was calculated to 15.57 kJ/mol. Response surface methodology was applied to analyze the interaction of the main conditions and the results showed that the influence of experimental factors on the leaching efficiency of vanadium followed the order: m(NaOH)/m(Residue) (B) > m(Na2S2O8)/m(Residue) (C) > reaction temperature (E) > reaction time (D) > liquid-to-solid ratio (A).

Abstract
Optically active nanostructures consisting of organic compounds and metallic support have shown great promise in phototherapy due to their increased light absorption capacity and high energy conversion. Herein, we conjugated chlorophyll (Chl) to vanadium carbide (V2C) nanosheets for combined photodynamic/photothermal therapy (PDT/PTT), which reserves the advantages of each modality while minimizing the side effects to achieve an improved therapeutic effect. In this system, the Chl from Leptolyngbya JSC-1 extracts acted as an efficient light-harvest antenna in a wide NIR range and photosensitizers (PSs) for oxygen self-generation hypoxia-relief PDT. The available large surface of two-dimensional (2D) V2C showed high Chl loading efficiency, and the interaction between organic Chl and metallic V2C led to energy conversion efficiency high to 78%. Thus, the Chl/ V2C nanostructure showed advanced performance in vitro cell line killing and completely ablated tumors in vivo with 100% survival rate under a single NIR irradiation. Our results suggest that the artificial optical Chl/V2C nanostructure will benefit photocatalytic tumor eradication clinic application.

Abstract
The aim of the work was to obtain hybrid coatings containing silver, copper, and zinc nanoparticles on the TiAlV medical alloy via a sol–gel process. The developed layers were designed to bring about a bactericidal and fungicidal effect, as well as for protection against surgical scratches during the implantation of implants used in veterinary medicine. In this work, the authors focused on evaluating the microstructure (SEM + EDS); the structure (XRD, FTIR); and the surface properties, such as wettability, free surface energy, and roughness of layers with various concentrations of metallic nanoparticles (2 and 5 mol %). Our results confirmed that the sol–gel method enables the easy manufacturing of hybrid layers endowed with different porosity values as well as various shapes and sizes of metallic nanoparticles. A higher concentration of nanoparticles was observed on the surface containing 5 mol % of metallic salts. The highest degree of homogeneity was obtained for the layers containing silver nanoparticles. In addition, the silver nanoparticles were round and had the smallest dimensions, even below 20 nm. The FTIR and XRD structural studies confirmed the presence of an organosilicon matrix containing all three types of the metallic particles. We conclude that the higher concentration of nanoparticles influenced the alloy surface parameters.

Abstract
Wound healing is a multi-stage process that is dynamic, interactive, and complicated. However, many nanomaterials are employed to expedite wound healing by demonstrating antibacterial activity or boosting cell proliferation. But only one phase is focused during the wound healing process. As a result, there is a need for optimum wound dressing materials that promotes different wound healing cascades with ideal properties. Herein, Graphene Oxide loaded with vanadium (V) doped titanium dioxide (TiO2) blended with chitosan, and polyvinyl alcohol (CS/PVA/GO/TiO2-V) patch was developed for wound healing. XRD, FTIR and FE-SEM analyses were carried out to study the morphology and structural property of the patch. The fabricated patch has a high surface porosity, excellent moisture vapor transfer rate, appropriate swelling behaviour, and oxygen permeability, which results in an excellent moist environment for wound breathing and effective management of wound exudates. The antibacterial test showed significant antibacterial efficacy against wound infections in the presence of light when compared to dark. In-vitro analysis such as hemocompatibility, cytotoxicity, cell adhesion, and scratch assay show the predicted potential wound healing application with high biocompatibility. These results suggest that CS/PVA/GO/TiO2-V patch provides a microenvironment favourable to cells' growth and differentiation and positively modulates full-thickness wounds' healing.

Abstract
Five heteroleptic compounds, [VVO(IN-2H)(L-H)], where L are 8-hydroxyquinoline derivatives and IN is a Schiff base ligand, were synthesized and characterized in both the solid and solution state. The compounds were evaluated on epimastigotes and trypomastigotes of Trypanosoma cruzi as well as on VERO cells, as a mammalian cell model. Compounds showed activity against trypomastigotes with IC50 values of 0.29-3.02 μM. IN ligand and the new [VVO2(IN-H)] complex showed negligible activity. The most active compound [VVO(IN-2H)(L2-H)], with L2 = 5-chloro-7-iodo-8-hydroxyquinoline, showed good selectivity towards the parasite and was selected to carry out further biological studies. Stability studies suggested a partial decomposition in solution. [VVO(IN-2H)(L2-H)] affects the infection potential of cell-derived trypomastigotes. Low total vanadium uptake by parasites and preferential accumulation in the soluble proteins fraction were determined. A trypanocide effect was observed when incubating epimastigotes with 10 × IC50 values of [VVO(IN-2H)(L2-H)] and the generation of ROS after treatments was suggested. Fluorescence competition measurements with DNA:ethidium bromide adduct showed a moderate DNA interaction of the complexes. In vivo toxicity study on C. elegans model showed no toxicity up to a 100 μM concentration of [VVO(IN-2H)(L2-H)]. This compound could be considered a prospective anti-T. cruzi agent that deserves further research.

Abstract
Mixed-valent transition-metal compounds display complex structural, electronic and magnetic properties, which often intricately coexist. Here, we report the new ternary oxide GaV4O8, a structural sibling of skyrmion-hosting lacunar spinels. GaV4O8 contains a vanadium trimer and an original spin-orbital-charge texture that forms upon the structural phase transition at TS = 68 K followed by the magnetic transition at TN = 35 K. The texture arises from the coexistence of orbital molecules on the vanadium trimers and localized electrons on the remaining vanadium atoms. Such hybrid electrons create opportunities for novel types of spin, charge, and orbital order in mixed-valent transition-metal compounds.

Abstract
Antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains have been continuously increasing and becoming a supreme threat to public health globally. The nanoparticle-based photothermal treatment has emerged as a powerful tool to combat toxic bacteria. Photothermal agents (PTAs) with cost-effective and high photothermal conversion efficiency are highly desirable. Herein, we unite the green process for delamination of V2AlC to produce a high yield mass of two-dimensional (2D) V2C nanosheets (NSs) by using algae extracts and demonstrate their high antibacterial efficiency. The resultant V2C NSs present decent structural reliability and intrinsic antibacterial ability. Powerful near-infrared (NIR) absorption and extraordinary photothermal conversion proficiency make it a good PTA for the photothermal treatment of bacteria. The antibacterial efficiency evaluation indicated that V2C NSs could effectively kill both Gram-positive S. aureus and Gram-negative E. coli. About 99.5% of both types of bacteria could be killed with low-dose of V2C NSs suspension (40 μg/mL) with 5 min NIR irradiation due to the intrinsic antibacterial ability and photothermal effect of V2C NSs, which is much higher than previous reports on Ta4C3, Ti3C2, MoSe2, and Nb2C. This work expands the application of MXene V2C NSs for rapid bacteria-killing and would gain promising attention for applications in the sterilization industry.

Abstract
Aromatics from selective hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of biomass-derived bio-oil are an ideal feedstock for replacing industrial fossil products. In this study, biochar-modified Hβ/Ni-V catalysts were prepared and tested in the atmospheric HDO of guaiacol and bio-oil to produce aromatics. Compared with unmodified Hβ/Ni-V, higher HDO activity was achieved in catalysts with all kinds of biochar modifications. Especially, the pine nut shell biochar (PB)-modified PB-Hβ-8/Ni-V showed the highest selectivity to aromatics (69.17%), mainly including benzene and toluene. Besides, under the conditions of 380 °C and weight hourly space velocity (WHSV) of 0.5 h-1, the cleavage of CAr-OH (CAr means the carbon in the benzene ring) was promoted to form more aromatics. Moreover, great recyclability (58.77% aromatics for the reactivated run-3 test) and efficient HDO of bio-oil (44.9% aromatic yield) were also achieved. Based on the characterization results, the enhanced aromatic selectivity of PB-Hβ-8/Ni-V was attributed to the synergetic effect between PB and Hβ/Ni-V. In detail, a stable surface migrated-carbon layer was formed on Hβ/Ni-V via the metal catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process of the pyrolysis PB volatiles. Simultaneously, a carbothermal reduction driven by the migrated-carbon took place to decorate the surface metals, obtaining more Ni0 and V3+ active sites. With this synergism, increased Ni0 sites promoted H2 adsorption and dissociation, which improved the hydrogenation activity. Furthermore, the higher affinity of the reactant and increased oxygen vacancies both contributed to enhancing the selective surface adsorption of oxygenous groups and the cleavage of the CAr-OH bond, thus improving the deoxygenation activity. Therefore, the HDO activity was improved to form more target aromatics over biochar-modified catalysts. This work highlighted a potential avenue to develop economic and environmental catalysts for the upgrading of bio-oil.

Abstract
User-friendly, low-cost equipment for preventive screening of severe or deadly pathologies are one of the most sought devices by the National Health Services, as they allow early disease detection and treatment, often avoiding its degeneration. In recent years more and more research groups are developing devices aimed at these goals employing gas sensors. Here, nanostructured chemoresistive metal oxide (MOX) sensors were employed in a patented prototype aimed to detect volatile organic compounds (VOCs), exhaled by blood samples collected from patients affected by colorectal cancer and from healthy subjects as a control. Four sensors, carefully selected after many years of laboratory tests on biological samples (cultured cells, human stools, human biopsies, etc.), were based here on various percentages of tin, tungsten, titanium, niobium, tantalum and vanadium oxides. Sensor voltage responses were statistically analyzed also with the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, that allowed the identification of the cut-off discriminating between healthy and tumor affected subjects for each sensor, leading to an estimate of sensitivity and specificity parameters. ROC analysis demonstrated that sensors employing tin and titanium oxides decorated with gold nanoparticles gave sensitivities up to 80% yet with a specificity of 70%.

Abstract
The experimental data collected over the past 15 years on the interaction of decavanadate(V) (V10O286-; V10), a polyoxometalate (POM) with promising anticancer and antibacterial action, with G-actin, were rationalized by using several computational approaches (docking, density functional theory (DFT), and molecular dynamics (MD)). Moreover, a comparison with the isostructural and more stable decaniobate(V) (Nb10O286-; Nb10) was carried out. Four binding sites were identified, named α, β, γ, and δ, the site α being the catalytic nucleotide site located in the cleft of the enzyme at the interface of the subdomains II and IV. It was observed that the site α is preferred by V10, whereas Nb10 is more stable at the site β; this indicates that, differently from other proteins, G-actin could contemporaneously bind the two POMs, whose action would be synergistic. Both decavanadate and decaniobate induce conformational rearrangements in G-actin, larger for V10 than Nb10. Moreover, the binding mode of oxidovanadium(IV) ion, VIVO2+, formed upon the reduction of decavanadate(V) by the -SH groups of accessible cysteine residues, is also found in the catalytic site α with (His161, Asp154) coordination; this adduct overlaps significantly with the region where ATP is bound, accounting for the competition between V10 and its reduction product VIVO2+ with ATP, as previously observed by EPR spectroscopy. Finally, the competition with ATP was rationalized: since decavanadate prefers the nucleotide site α, Ca2+-ATP displaces V10 from this site, while the competition is less important for Nb10 because this POM shows a higher affinity for β than for site α. A relevant consequence of this paper is that other metallodrug-protein systems, in the absence or presence of eventual inhibitors and/or competition with molecules of the organism, could be studied with the same approach, suggesting important elements for an explanation of the biological data and a rational drug design.

Abstract
BACKGROUND At the present time, there is a growing interest in metal-based anticancer agents. Metal complexes exhibit many valuable clinical properties, however, due to toxicity, only a few clinically useful complexes have been discovered. It has been demonstrated that synthetic vanadium complexes exhibit many biological activities, including anti-cancer properties, however, cellular and molecular mechanisms still are not fully understood. OBJECTIVE This investigation examined the potential effects of three newly synthesized oxidovanadium(IV) complexes with 2-amino-3-hydroxypyridine against pancreatic cancer cells. METHODS We measured cytotoxicity by using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide, antiproliferative activity by bromodeoxyuridine assay and necrosis as well as late apoptosis by lactate dehydrogenase assay. Reactive oxygen species generation, apoptosis and mitochondrial membrane potential were determined by a flow cytometry technique. Cell morphology was evaluated by using a transmission electron microscope. RESULTS The results showed that oxidovanadium(IV) complexes were cytotoxic on pancreatic cancer cells (PANC-1 and MIA PaCa2) over the concentration range of 12.5-200μM, following 48h incubation. Additionally, the cellular mechanism of cytotoxic activity of [2-NH2-3-OH(py)H]4[V2O2(pmida)2]·6H2O (V3) complex was dependent on ROS generation, induction apoptosis with simultaneous disruption of mitochondrial membrane potential. CONCLUSION We have proven that oxidovanadium (IV) complexes show therapeutic potential in pancreatic cancer therapy. The results of our research will help to understand the cellular mechanisms of the cytotoxic activity of the vanadium complexes and will allow a more effective design structure of new vanadium-based compounds in the future.

Abstract
We have experimentally studied the influence of pulsed laser deposition parameters on the morphological and electrophysical parameters of vanadium oxide films. It is shown that an increase in the number of laser pulses from 10,000 to 60,000 and an oxygen pressure from 3 × 10-4 Torr to 3 × 10-2 Torr makes it possible to form vanadium oxide films with a thickness from 22.3 ± 4.4 nm to 131.7 ± 14.4 nm, a surface roughness from 7.8 ± 1.1 nm to 37.1 ± 11.2 nm, electron concentration from (0.32 ± 0.07) × 1017 cm-3 to (42.64 ± 4.46) × 1017 cm-3, electron mobility from 0.25 ± 0.03 cm2/(V·s) to 7.12 ± 1.32 cm2/(V·s), and resistivity from 6.32 ± 2.21 Ω·cm to 723.74 ± 89.21 Ω·cm. The regimes at which vanadium oxide films with a thickness of 22.3 ± 4.4 nm, a roughness of 7.8 ± 1.1 nm, and a resistivity of 6.32 ± 2.21 Ω·cm are obtained for their potential use in the fabrication of ReRAM neuromorphic systems. It is shown that a 22.3 ± 4.4 nm thick vanadium oxide film has the bipolar effect of resistive switching. The resistance in the high state was (89.42 ± 32.37) × 106 Ω, the resistance in the low state was equal to (6.34 ± 2.34) × 103 Ω, and the ratio RHRS/RLRS was about 14,104. The results can be used in the manufacture of a new generation of micro- and nanoelectronics elements to create ReRAM of neuromorphic systems based on vanadium oxide thin films.

Abstract
In this tribute to John B. Goodenough I will describe how John’s talk on the metal-to-nonmetal transition of vanadium oxide VO2, presented at the Bordeaux Conference (September 1964) attended by inorganic chemists, metallurgists, crystallographers, thermodynamicists and physicists, provided a pioneering vision of interdisciplinary research to come. John gave a complete description of the paradigm on how the physical properties of a solid depend on its structure and bonding, by employing the chemical notions as local distortions and interatomic distances as well as the physics notions such as band width and the Hubbard on-site repulsion U. I will illustrate how inspiring John’s ideas were, by discussing the research examples of my own research group in the sixties-seventies. The fundamental approach of John B. Goodenough to Solid State Chemistry, leading particularly to lithium battery applications, is at the heart of the 2019 Nobel Prize awarded to John.

Abstract
Two vanadium(V) complexes derived from the bromo and chloro-substituted hydrazones N'-(4-bromo-2-hydroxybenzylidene)- 2-chlorobenzohydrazide (H2L1) and N'-(3-bromo-5-chloro-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-3-methylbenzohydrazide (H2L2) with the formula [VOL1(OCH3)(CH3OH)] (1) and [VOL2(OCH3)(CH3OH)] (2) were newly synthesized and characterized by IR, UV-Vis and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The structures of H2L1 and the complexes were further confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Both vanadium complexes are mononuclear, with the metal atoms coordinated by the hydrazone ligands, methanol ligands, and methanolate ligands, and the oxo groups, forming octahedral geometry. The hydrazones and the vanadium complexes were assayed for the antimicrobial activities on Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas fluorescence, and the fungi Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger. The existence of the bromo and chloro groups in the hydrazone ligands may improve the antimicrobial property.

Abstract
Natural tanzanites usually show strongly trichroic coloration from violet to blue, and brown colors in different directions. However, this characteristic is easily changed to violet-blue dichroism after heat treatment. Moreover, the cause of color modification after heating is still controversial. A few researchers have previously suggested that trace amounts of either vanadium or titanium substituted in aluminum site should be the main determinant of color after the heat treatment. Alteration of either V3+ to V4+ or Ti3+ to Ti4+ may relate to light absorption around 450–460 nm, which is the main cause. UV/vis/NIR absorption spectroscopy and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), a utility of synchrotron radiation, were applied for this experiment. As a result, the violet-blue absorption band (centered around 450–460 nm) as well as green absorption band (centered around 520 nm) were obviously decreased along the c-axis after heating, and XAS analysis indicated the increasing of the oxidation state of vanadium. This result was well supported by the chemical composition of samples. Consequently, vanadium was strongly suggested as the significant coloring agent in tanzanite after heat treatment.

Abstract
In this study, the binding to lysozyme (Lyz) of four important VIV compounds with antidiabetic and/or anticancer activity, [VIVO(pic)2(H2O)], [VIVO(ma)2], [VIVO(dhp)2], and [VIVO(acac)2], where pic-, ma-, dhp-, and acac- are picolinate, maltolate, 1,2-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-4(1H)-pyridinonate, and acetylacetonate anions, and of the vanadium-containing natural product amavadin ([VIV(hidpa)2]2-, with hidpa3- N-hydroxyimino-2,2'-diisopropionate) was investigated by ElectroSpray Ionization-Mass Spectrometry (ESI-MS). Moreover, the interaction of [VIVO(pic)2(H2O)], chosen as a representative VIVO2+ complex, was examined with two additional proteins, myoglobin (Mb) and ubiquitin (Ub), to compare the data. The examined vanadium concentration was in the range 15-150 μM, i.e., very close to that found under physiological conditions. With pic-, dhp-, and hidpa3-, the formation of adducts n[VIVOL2]-Lyz or n[VIVL2]-Lyz is favored, while with ma- and acac- the species n[VIVOL]-Lyz are detected, with n dependent on the experimental VIV/protein ratio. The behavior of the systems with [VIVO(pic)2(H2O)] and Mb or Ub is very similar to that of Lyz. The results suggested that under physiological conditions, the moiety cis-VIVOL2 (L = pic-, dhp-) is bound by only one accessible side-chain protein residue that can be Asp, Glu, or His, while VIVOL+ (L = ma-, acac-) can interact with the two equatorial and axial sites. If the VIV complex is thermodynamically stable and does not have available coordination positions, such as amavadin, the protein cannot interact with it through the formation of coordination bonds and, in such cases, noncovalent interactions are predicted. The formation of the adducts is dependent on the thermodynamic stability and geometry in aqueous solution of the VIVO2+ complex and affects the transport, uptake, and mechanism of action of potential V drugs.

Abstract
For a long time the biological role of vanadium was not known, while now the possibility of using its derivatives as potential therapeutic agents has given rise to investigations on their probable side effects. Vanadium compounds may inhibit different biochemical processes and lead to a variety of toxic effects and serious diseases. But, on the other hand, vanadium is an essential element for life. In recent years, increasing evidence has been acquired on the possible roles of vanadium in the higher forms of life. Despite several biochemical and physiological functions that have been suggested for vanadium and notwithstanding the amount of the knowledge so far accumulated, it still does not have a clearly defined role in the higher forms of life. What functions could vanadium or its very stable oxidovanadium(IV) derivatives have had in the prebiotic world and in the origins of life? In this review, we have briefly tried to highlight the most useful aspects that can be taken into consideration to give an answer to this still unresolved question and to show the high versatility of the oxidovanadium(IV) group to act as promoter of several oxidation reactions when coordinated with a variety of ligands, including diketones like acylpyrazolones.

Abstract
The incorporation of metal cofactors into protein active sites and/or active regions expanded the network of microbial metabolism during the Archean eon. The bioavailability of crucial metal cofactors is largely influenced by earth surface redox state, which impacted the timing of metabolic evolution. Vanadium (V) is a unique element in geo-bio-coevolution due to its complex redox chemistry and specific biological functions. Thus, the extent of microbial V utilization potentially represents an important link between the geo- and biospheres in deep time. In this study, we used geochemical modeling and network analysis to investigate the availability and chemical speciation of V in the environment, and the emergence and changing chemistry of V-containing minerals throughout earth history. The redox state of V shifted from a more reduced V(III) state in Archean aqueous geochemistry and mineralogy to more oxidized V(IV) and V(V) states in the Proterozoic and Phanerozoic. The weathering of vanadium sulfides, vanadium alkali metal minerals, and vanadium alkaline earth metal minerals were potential sources of V to the environment and microbial utilization. Community detection analysis of the expanding V mineral network indicates tectonic and redox influence on the distribution of V mineral-forming elements. In reducing environments, energetic drivers existed for V to potentially be involved in early nitrogen fixation, while in oxidizing environments vanadate ( VO43-]]> ) could have acted as a metabolic electron acceptor and phosphate mimicking enzyme inhibitor. The coevolving chemical speciation and biological functions of V due to earth's changing surface redox conditions demonstrate the crucial links between the geosphere and biosphere in the evolution of metabolic electron transfer pathways and biogeochemical cycles from the Archean to Phanerozoic.

Abstract
Understanding the interactions between humic acid colloid (HAC) and vanadium (V) in soils is of great importance in forecasting the behaviors and fates of V in the soil and groundwater systems. This study investigated the characteristics and factors that affect V adsorption-desorption by the HAC; meanwhile, we also explored the co-transport of the HAC and V in a saturated porous media. Scanning Electronic Microscopy micrographs showed the variation of morphological features on the surface of the HAC before and after V adsorption. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy spectra revealed that the presence of hydroxyl, carboxyl, carbonyl, carbon-carbon double bond, amino, and aromatic ring on the HAC participated in V adsorption. The adsorption isotherms were well described by the Langmuir model, and the adsorption kinetics of the HAC was better described by the pseudo-first-order kinetic models. The adsorption-desorption was strongly dependent on the initial V concentration, solution pH, and temperature. The maximum adsorption amount was 861.17 mg g-1 by 200 mg L-1 HAC at the initial V concentration of 500 mg L-1, and the corresponding desorption amount was 15.13 mg g-1. These results showed that the HAC had high fixation capacity of V in soil. In addition, the HAC sped up the mobility of V; however, it decreased mass of migration of V in the saturated quartz sand column. These results are expected to provide insight into the potential impact of HAC on geochemical behaviours of V in vulnerable ecosystems.

Abstract
Porous nano biomass carbon was synthesized by one-step method using scaphium scaphigerum as carbon source and was employed as negative catalyst for vanadium redox flow battery. Potassium ferrate was used to realize synchronous etching, introducing oxygen-containing groups and graphitization of scaphium scaphigerum to obtain porous, oxygen-rich, high-graphization carbon materials (SS-K/Fe). Compared with traditional two-step method, one-step method has advantages of low-time requirement, high efficiency and no pollution. The prepared SS-K/Fe sample has abundant microporous structure, high degree of graphitization and many oxygen-containing groups. The electrochemical test results show that the prepared carbon-based materials exhibit superior electrocatalytic capability for V2+/V3+ redox reaction. The electrode process can be accelerated from three steps including ion diffusion, electrochemical reaction and electron transfer processes, which are due to the enhancement of wetting performance and electrical conductivity, and an increase of effective catalytic area. Compared with pristine cell, the SS-K/Fe modified cell can improve the energy efficiency by 6.2% at the current density of 50 mA cm-2. This method is expected to realize low cost, green and renewable porous carbon materials for future energy storage systems.

Abstract
The fabrication and luminescent performance of novel phosphors Na2YMg2V3O12:Dy3+ were investigated by a conventional solid-state reaction method. Under near-UV light, the Na2YMg2V3O12 host self-activated and released a broad emission band (400-700 nm, with a peak at 524 nm) ascribable to charge transfer in the (VO4)3- groups. Meanwhile, the Na2YMg2V3O12:Dy3+ phosphors emitted bright yellow light within both the broad emission band of the (VO4)3- groups and the sharp peaks of the Dy3+ ions at 490, 582, and 663 nm at a quenching concentration of 0.03 mol. The emission of the as-prepared Na2YMg2V3O12:Dy3+ phosphors remained stable at high temperatures. The obtained phosphors, commercial Y2O3:Eu3+ red phosphors, and BaMgAl10O17:Eu2+ blue phosphors were packed into a white light-emitting diode (WLED) device with a near-UV chip. The designed WLED emitted bright white light with good chromaticity coordinates (0.331, 0.361), satisfactory color rendering index (80.2), and proper correlation to a color temperature (7364 K). These results indicate the potential utility of Na2YMg2V3O12:Dy3+ phosphor as a yellow-emitting phosphor in solid-state illumination.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with long-term stability and reversible high water uptake properties can be ideal candidates for water harvesting and indoor humidity control. Now, a mesoporous and highly stable MOF, BIT-66 is presented that has indoor humidity control capability and a photocatalytic bacteriostatic effect. BIT-66 (V3 (O)3 (H2 O)(BTB)2 ), possesses prominent moisture tunability in the range of 45-60 % RH and a water uptake and working capacity of 71 and 55 wt %, respectively, showing good recyclability and excellent performance in water adsorption-desorption cycles. Importantly, this MOF demonstrates a unique photocatalytic bacteriostatic behavior under visible light, which can effectively ameliorate the bacteria and/or mold breeding problem in water adsorbing materials.

Abstract
Natural birnessite-like minerals are commonly enriched in various transitional metals (TMs), which greatly modify the mineral structure and properties. However few studies are yet conducted systematically on the effects of TM doping on birnessite reactivity towards Cr(III) oxidation. In the present study, the transformation behaviors of Cr(III) on Co-, Ni-, V-containing birnessites were investigated. Co and Ni doping generally decrease the mineral crystalline sizes and hydrodynamic sizes (DH) while V-doping greatly decreases the crystalline sizes but not the DH, owing to particle aggregation. Co and Ni firstly decrease and then increase the mineral zeta potentials (ζ) at pH4 while V decreases ζ. Electrochemical specific capacitances for Co-containing birnessites are gradually reduced, while those for Ni-doped birnessites are slightly reduced and for V-doped birnessites increased, which have a positively linear relationship with the amounts of Cr(III) oxidized by these samples. Cr(III) removal efficiencies from solution by these Co-, Ni- and V-containing birnessites are 26-51%, ∼62-72% and ∼96-100%, respectively, compared to ∼92% by pure birnessite. Cr(III) oxidation kinetics analysis demonstrates the gradual decrease of Mn(IV) and concurrent increase of Mn(III) and the adsorption of mainly Cr(III) on mineral surfaces. A negatively linear relationship exists between birnessite lateral sizes and the proportions of Mn(IV/III) consumed to oxidize Cr(III). Apparent initial Cr(III) oxidation rate (kobs) for Co-containing birnessites are greatly reduced, while those for Ni-doped samples moderately decreased and for V-doped samples first increased and then decreased. A positively or negatively linear relationship exists between kobs or the amount of Mn(II) released and the mineral Mn(IV) content respectively. Cr(III) oxidation probably initiates from layer edge sites of Ni-doped birnessites but the vacancies of Co- and V-containing birnessites. These results provide insights into the reaction mechanisms of Cr(III) with natural birnessite-like minerals.

Abstract
Vanadium mining and smelting activities were increasing extensively and causing serious vanadium pollution in soil around the mining area. Different existing forms of vanadium had different biological effects and the exchangeable state had been recognized as a severe threat to biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. At present, the research on vanadium morphology had not received much attention. In this study, the area that we researched had been severely polluted with vanadium due to mining and smelting activities. The changes in the morphology of vanadium in soil were studied by adjusting the organic matter content, clay mineral content, pH value, and Eh value. The results showed that at pH 8 and for 1% of humic acid added, the exchangeable fraction of vanadium in the slag was 10% and 9%, respectively, which was 5% and 6% lower than the control group. The addition of kaolin and the redox change had little effect on the exchangeable fraction of vanadium, with a change of only about 2%. To control the soil pollution caused by slag and to repair its ecological characteristics, kaolin and humic acid were used for the repair test. The results showed that after 1% humic acid mixed with 8% kaolin was added in soil, the germination rate of ryegrass reached 95% and grew flourishingly which is significantly better than other treatment groups. Our research can provide a reference for future vanadium pollution control, especially in the morphology of vanadium research.

Abstract
In this study, nanoparticle-incorporated nanofiber-covered yarns were prepared using a custom-made needle-free electrospinning system. The ultimate goal of this work was to prepare functional nanofibrous surfaces with antibacterial properties and realize high-speed production. As antibacterial agents, we used various amounts of copper oxide (CuO) and vanadium (V) oxide (V2O5) nanoparticles (NPs). Three yarn preparation speeds (100 m/min, 150 m/min, and 200 m/min) were used for the nanofiber-covered yarn. The results indicate a relationship between the yarn speed, quantity of NPs, and antibacterial efficiency of the material. We found a higher yarn speed to be associated with a lower reduction in bacteria. NP-loaded nanofiber yarns were proven to have excellent antibacterial properties against Gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli). CuO exhibited a greater inhibition and bactericidal effect against E. coli than V2O5. In brief, the studied samples are good candidates for use in antibacterial textile surface applications, such as wastewater filtration. As greater attention is being drawn to this field, this work provides new insights regarding the antibacterial textile surfaces of nanofiber-covered yarns.

Abstract
Histidine, inspired by vanadium bromoperoxidase enzyme, has been applied as a homogeneous electrocatalyst to the positive electrolyte of vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) to improve the performance and stability of VRFB at elevated temperatures. The histidine-containing electrolyte is found to significantly improve the performance of VRFB in terms of thermal stability estimated by the remaining amount of VO2+ in the electrolyte (61 vs 43% of a pristine one), energy efficiency at a high current density of 150 mA cm-2 (78.7 vs 71.2%), and capacity retention (73.2 vs 27.7%) at 60 °C. The mechanism of the catalytic functions of histidine with the chemical species in the electrolyte has been investigated for the first time by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and first-principles calculations. The analyzed data reveal that histidine improves the kinetics of both charge and discharge reactions through different affinity toward the reactants and products as well as suppresses the precipitation of VO2+ by impeding the polymerization of vanadium ions. These findings are in good agreement with the improved chemical and electrochemical performance of the histidine-containing VRFB. Our results show a new type of chemical/electrochemical mechanism in the improved redox flow battery performance that may be essential in a new research arena for better performance of electrochemical systems.

Abstract
Biofilm-related infection is among the worst complication to prosthetic joint replacement procedures; once established on the implant surface, biofilms show strong recalcitrance to clinical antibiotic therapy, frequently requiring costly revision procedures and prolonged systemic antibiotics for their removal. A well-designed active release coating might assist host immunity in clearing bacterial contaminants within the narrow perioperative window and ultimately prevent microbial colonization of the joint prosthesis. A first-in-class compound (CZ-01127) was tested as the active release agent in a silicone (Si) coating using an in vitro dynamic flow model of surgical site contamination and compared with analogous coatings containing clinical gold-standard antibiotics vancomycin and gentamicin; the CZ-01127 coating outperformed both vancomycin and gentamicin coatings and was the only to decrease the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) inocula below detectable limits for the first 3 days. The antimicrobial activity of CZ-01127, and for comparison vancomycin and gentamicin, were characterized against both planktonic and biofilm MRSA using the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) assay, serial passages, and serial dilution tests against established biofilms grown with a CBR 90 CDC biofilm reactor. Despite a similar MIC (1 µg/ml) and behavior in a 25-day serial passage analysis, CZ-01127 displayed much greater bactericidal activity against established biofilms and was the only to decrease biofilm colony forming units (CFUs) below detectable limits at the highest concentration tested (500 µg/ml). Coating release profiles were characterized using ATR-FTIR and displayed burst release kinetics within the decisive period of the perioperative window suggesting the silicon carrier is broadly useful for screening antibiotic compound for local delivery applications. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: With an aging population, an increasing number of people are undergoing total joint replacement procedures in which diseased joint tissues are replaced with permanent metallic implants. Some of these procedures are burdened by costly and debilitating infections. A promising approach to prevent infections is the use of an antimicrobial coating on the surface of the implant which releases antibiotics into the surgical site to prevent infection. In this study, we tested a new antibiotic compound formulated in a silicone coating. Data showed that this compound was more effective at killing pathogenic methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria than two clinical gold-standard antibiotics-vancomycin and gentamicin-and could be a promising agent for antimicrobial coating technologies.

Abstract
The effects of low-molecular-weight dissolved organic matters (LMWDOMs) on the release of vanadium (V) under environmental conditions are part of a broader study on the environmental geochemistry behavior of V. Eight typical naturally occurring LMWDOMs with carboxyl, hydroxyl, and amidogen groups were chosen: citric acid, oxalic acid, EDTA, salicylic acid, catechol, glycine, cysteine, and glucose. The results showed that the release of V was largely promoted by LMWDOMs with carboxyl functional groups under acidic conditions and with catechol under basic conditions. In the presence of citric acid, oxalic acid, or EDTA at pH 4.0, the initial release rates of V were approximately 25-39 times greater than the rates in the control experiments; the steady release rates were 164, 95, and 49 times than the rates in the control experiments, respectively. For catechol, the release rate at pH 8.0 was approximately 20 times the rate at pH 4.0. Amino acids and alcohols had a minimal effect on the release of V. Ligand-promoted release rates of V were found primarily due to the faster detachment of surface complexes, the protonated sites from the mineral surface and the reduction of dissolved V (V) in the presence of citric acid, oxalic acid, EDTA, and catechol. This study helps understand the pollution risk of V in some mine areas and the fate of V in the environment.

Abstract
Herein, we report the homo- and co-polymerization of ethylene (E) with norbornene (NB) catalyzed by vanadium(III) phosphine complexes of the type VCl3(PMenPh3-n)2 [n = 2 (1a), 1 (1b)] and VCl3(PR3)2 [R = phenyl (Ph, 1c), cyclohexyl (Cy, 1d), tert-butyl (tBu, 1e)]. In the presence of Et2AlCl and Cl3CCOOEt (ETA), 1a-1e exhibit good activities for the polymerization of ethylene, affording linear, semicrystalline PEs with a melting temperature of approximately 130 °C. Mainly alternating copolymers with high comonomer incorporation were obtained in the E/NB copolymerization. A relationship was found between the electronic and steric properties of the phosphine ligands and the catalytic performance. Overall, the presence of electron-withdrawing ligand substituents increases the productivity, complexes with aryl phosphine (weaker σ-donor character) exhibiting a higher (co)polymerization initiation rate than those with alkyl phosphines (stronger σ-donor character). Steric effects also seem to play a key role since 1d and 1e, having large size phosphines (PCy3 θ = 170° and PtBu3 θ = 182°, respectively) are more active than 1a (PMe2Ph θ = 122°). In this case, the larger size of PtBu3 and PCy3 likely compensates for their higher donor strength compared to PMe2Ph.

Abstract
A class of vanadium complexes were prepared and investigated for their antiproliferative effects by MTT assay. The structure-activity relationship was extensively studied through the ligand variation. The results showed that the synthetic vanadium complexes demonstrated moderate to good antiproliferative activities against the four cancer cell lines including MGC803, EC109, MCF7 and HepG2, respectively. Of note was that most of the complexes showed preferential growth inhibitory activity to some degree toward gastric cancer line MGC803. Among them, complex 19 exhibited the most and broad-spectrum proliferative inhibition against the tested cell lines. In addition, mechanism studies illustrated that complex 19 could prevent the colony formation, migration and EMT process, as well as induce apoptosis of MGC803 cells. Furthermore, Western blot experiments revealed that the expression of apoptosis-related proteins changed, including up-regulation of Bax, PARP and caspase-3/9, as well as down-regulation of Bcl-2.
