The Strong Inhibitory Effect of Combining Anti-Cancer Drugs AT406 and Rocaglamide with Blue LED Irradiation on Colorectal Cancer Cells
摘要： There is still no satisfying method to treat colorectal cancer (CRC) currently. Inspired by cocktail therapy, the combination of 465 nm blue LED irradiation and two multi-target anticancer agents AT406 and Rocaglamide has been investigated for a revolutionary way to treat colorectal cancer cells in vitro. It showed a strong inhibitory effect on colorectal cancer cells, and its side effects on human normal cells are negligible. When applied to HCT116 cells, it can achieve an apoptotic rate up to 95%. It is also seen to significantly inhibit proliferation of HT29 cells. Furthermore, little to no cell inhibition or damage of normal MRC-5 cells were seen after treatment. The combination of blue LED irradiation and two anti-cancer drugs causes apoptosis of colorectal cancer cells by activating the apoptotic pathway, inhibiting autophagy and proliferation pathways as well as the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Coagulation performance of cationic polyelectrolyte/TiO <sub/>2</sub> nanocomposites prepared under LED irradiation
摘要： A series of acrylic-based cationic polyelectrolyte nanocomposites including water-soluble monomers acrylamide (AAm) and 2-acryloyloxyethyltrimethylammonium chloride (DAC) with different mole percent of DAC (30, 40, and 45%) in feed were produced using TiO2 nanoparticles (0.018, 0.037, and 0.11 wt%) as photoinitiator in the aqueous solution of monomers and named as p(ADT)1–9. The LED light at 365 nm was used for photocatalysis activation of TiO2 nanoparticles. Structure and morphology of the synthetic polyelectrolyte were characterized by FT-IR, NMR, TGA, FESEM-EDX, and TEM. The other properties of synthetic polyelectrolyte such as molecular weight, viscosity, charge density, AAm/DAC molar ratio in copolymers, reactivity ratio values for the AAm and DAC monomers, and polymerization degree were measured. Furthermore, coagulation performance of these polyelectrolytes was investigated in soil suspension (1,000 ml, turbidity = 1,715 NTU). The prepared nanocomposites enhanced the coagulation of soil suspension up to 99.5% in low dosages. The best turbidity removal efficiencies (TRE) between 99.5–99.77% were achieved by p(ADT)3 conatining 30% DAC and 0.11 wt% TiO2. Decreasing the temperature from room temperature to 0°C led to an increase in TRE from 98 to 99.8%. Also, increasing the pH from 4 to 12 led to a decrease in TRE from 99.86 to 94%.

Chemoselective photocatalytic oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and ketones by nitromethane on titanium dioxide under violet 400 nm LED light irradiation
摘要： In this study, for the first time, nitroalkanes especially nitromethane, have been used as an electron acceptor for the highly chemoselective oxidation of alcohols in the presence of TiO2 photocatalyst under 400 nm LED irradiation. The reactions showed excellent selectivity for the production of aldehydes. Interestingly aldehydes such as benzaldehyde and p-methoxybenzaldehyde are stable in the reaction condition. In the case of the use of 2-nitropropane and 2-methyl-2- nitropropane, the product of imine, which is the result of the reaction of aldehyde with aliphatic amine, is also produced.

Integrated Analysis of Transcriptomic and Metabolomic Data Reveals the Mechanism by Which LED Light Irradiation Extends the Postharvest Quality of Pak-choi (Brassica campestris L. ssp. chinensis (L.) Makino var. communis Tsen et Lee)
摘要： Low-intensity (10 μmol m?2 s?1) white LED (light-emitting diode) light effectively delayed senescence and maintained the quality of postharvest pakchoi during storage at 20 °C. To investigate the mechanism of LED treatment in maintaining the quality of pakchoi, metabolite profiles reported previously were complemented by transcriptomic profiling to provide greater information. A total of 7761 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in response to the LED irradiation of pak-choi during postharvest storage. Several pathways were markedly induced by LED irradiation, with photosynthesis being the most notable. More specifically, porphyrin and chlorophyll metabolism and glucosinolate biosynthesis were significantly induced by LED irradiation, which is consistent with metabolomics reported previously. Additionally, chlorophyllide a, chlorophyll, as well as total glucosinolate content was positively induced by LED irradiation. Overall, LED irradiation delayed the senescence of postharvest pak-choi mainly by activating photosynthesis, inducting glucosinolate biosynthesis, and inhibiting the down-regulation of porphyrin and chlorophyll metabolism pathways. The present study provides new insights into the effect and the underlying mechanism of LED irradiation on delaying the senescence of pak-choi. LED irradiation represents a useful approach for extending the shelf life of pak-choi.

Photomorphogenesis of wheat sprouts with LED irradiation of different intensities
摘要： Definition of the growth and development characteristics of plants in varied light conditions is a key factor for the creation of highly efficient light facilities for plant cultivation. Experimental research was conducted using an LED irradiation facility with photosynthetic photon flux densities ranging from 0 to 261 lmol m?2 s?1 and a continuous spectrum with maxima at 445 and 600 nm. Under the maximum photosynthetic photon flux density (261 lmol m?2 s?1) wheat germs demonstrated diminishing leaf surface with high values of specific leaf area, enhanced pubescence of ground tissues, increases in the number of stomata on the upper epidermis and palisade, and an increase in the thickness of the leaves as well as an increase in carotenoids but a decrease in the chlorophyll atb/carotenoids relation. It was revealed that the optimum level of photosynthetic photon flux density for the referred spectrum was in the range from 82 to 100 mmol m?2 s?1, which may enable a reduction of irradiance under specific conditions during early development with no harm to the plants while minimizing energy consumption during cultivation.

UV-LED fluence determination by numerical method for microbial inactivation studies
摘要： The Ultraviolet Light-Emitting Diode (UV-LED) is a new UV source suitable for small to mid-size water disinfection units. The design of a UV-LED reactor entails the integration of hydrodynamics, radiation, and kinetics data. The kinetics of microbial inactivation are necessary for UV-LED reactor design and the determination of kinetic rate constants depends on the accuracy of fluence rate measurement. However, there is not an easy way to measure the fluence rate inside a solution. In this study, a computational method is proposed to calculate irradiance and fluence rate based on the LED’s relative radiation profile and its radiant power, which are two standard pieces of information available in an LED’s datasheet. UV-LED was modeled as a polychromatic point source with a specific radiation profile and the fluence rate was calculated by solving the Radiative Transfer Equation by considering the refraction, reflection, and absorption of the medium. The irradiance and fluence rate predictions on the surface of the water were evaluated successfully by radiometry and actinometry measurements, respectively. The fluence rate imposed by 265-nm UV-LED and 275-nm UV-LED in Petri dishes with internal diameters of 5 cm and 9 cm were measured using biodosimetry with E. coli and MS2, when the UV-LED germicidal factor was obtained by considering the LED emission spectrum and the microorganism action spectra. Biodosimetry experiments using E. coli and MS2 at exposure times over 200 seconds indicated a close agreement between the simulation and experimental data. Such results are indicating the kinetic rate constants of a microorganism can be estimated without performing kinetic study using the action spectrum of microorganisms. Further, the results showed the proposed method can be applied for fluence rate determination for any LED’s radiation profile, LED position, and the experimental apparatus’s regardless of the availability of the action spectrum of microorganisms.

Pyrolysis‐Synthesized g‐C <sub/>3</sub> N <sub/>4</sub> /Nb <sub/>2</sub> O <sub/>5</sub> Nanocomposite for Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity under White LED Light Irradiation
摘要： The design and fabrication of highly active visible-light-driven photocatalysts have been received considerable attention in recent years. However, individual component-based photocatalysts are limited in their use because of the high recombination of photoinduced carriers and poor chemical stability. Herein, the Z-scheme-originated photocatalytic activity of in-situ deposited Nb2O5 NPs on the plane surface of carbon nitride (g-C3N4) nanosheets (i. e. CN-NbO) heterostructures was studied using a simple thermal pyrolysis method. The as-synthesized photocatalysts distinctly manifested efficient white light-emitting diode (LED) irradiation toward organic malachite green (MG) dye degradation and photocatalytic hydrogen generation. The CN-NbO heterostructure showed a faster degradation rate of the MG dye and a higher photocatalytic hydrogen evolution rate. In addition, the plausible Z-scheme photocatalytic mechanism for photocatalytic hydrogen production under LED light irradiation was discussed. Photoelectrochemcial studies showed that the superior photoactivity of CN-NbO heterostructure is mainly a result of the suitable alignment of the band edge positions, which diminish carrier recombination and facilitate efficient interfacial charge transport at their interface. This study provides an ideal method for in-situ fabrication of novel two dimensional/one dimension-based photocatalysts with high activity and stable performance for photocatalytic hydrogen generation.
