Abstract
CRISPR-based detection was often based on the target preamplification to realize the high sensitivity. Here, we prepared a CRISPR-Cas12a system for the colorimetric detection of lead ion (Pb2+) based on the assistance of DNAzyme and nanozyme instead of preamplification. The recognition between GR-5 DNAzyme and Pb2+ could trigger the CRISPR-Cas12a system. MnO2 nanozymes connected with magnetic beads through single stranded DNA were prepared as the colorimetric signal probes and catalyst of CRISPR-Cas12a system for the strong oxidase-like activity inducing the color change of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine. The nanozyme-catalysed CRISPR-Cas12a system could be used to detect Pb2+ through the color change with high specificity and sensitivity. The linear range of this approach was 0.8 nM-2500 nM, with a limit of detection of 0.54 nM. This method was applied for the detection of the Pb2+ in food samples indicating good accuracy and anti-interference ability.

Abstract
MnO2 nanorods with controllable scale were grown in the PVDF-g-PMAA modified membrane to form PVDF-g-PMAA@ MnO2 membrane through the in situ redox reaction of KMnO4 solution, which is confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray energy-dispersion spectroscopy (EDX). The pore size of the membrane decreased with the increase of KMnO4 solution concentration. The thermodynamic stability and the hydrophilicity of the membrane were also enhanced by the MnO2 nanorods. The water flux, bovine serum albumin (BSA)/Lysozyme protein solution flux and rejection, flux recovery, etc. showed effective improvement of the anti-fouling performance of the PVDF-g-PMAA@ MnO2 membrane. More importantly, it can effectively separate BSA from lysozyme, which provided a potential application in the field of biology, food, and other industrial fields for the requirement of separation and purification.

Abstract
Tailored designs/fabrications of hierarchical porous advanced electrode materials are of great importance for developing high-performance electrochemical sensors. Herein, we demonstrate a simple and low-cost in situ chemical approach for the facile synthesis of MnO2-embedded hierarchical porous carbon microspheres (MnO2/CM). By the characterizations of scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction and energy dispersive spectroscopy, we evidenced that the synthesized product were flower-like carbon microspheres (CM) assembled by the bent flakes with thickness of about several nanometers and MnO2 nanorods were highly dispersed and successfully decorated on the CM layers, resulting in a rough surface and three-dimensional microstructure. The greatest benefit from the combined porous CM with MnO2 nanorods is that the MnO2/CM modified electrode has the synergetic catalysis effect on the electro-oxidation of caffeic acid, leading to the remarkable increase in the electron transfer rate and significant decrease in the over-potential for the caffeic acid oxidation in contrast to the bare electrode and CM modified electrode. This implies that the prepared MnO2/CM can be employed as an enhanced electrocatalyst for the sensitive detection of caffeic acid. Under the optimum conditions, the anodic peak current of caffeic acid is linear with its concentration in the range of 0.01-15.00 μmol L-1, and a detection limit of 2.7 nmol L-1 is achieved based on S/N = 3. The developed sensor shows good selectivity, sensitivity, reproducibility, and also excellent recovery in the detections of real samples, revealing the promising practicality of the sensor for the caffeic acid detection.

Abstract
Microbial fuel cell (MFC) technology is a promising technology for electricity production together with simultaneous water treatment. Catalysts play an important role in deciding the MFC performance. In most reports, effect of catalyst - both type and quantity is not optimized. In this paper, synthesis of nanorods of MnO2-catalyst particles for application in Pt-free MFCs is reported. The effect of catalyst loading i.e., weight ratio, with respect to conducting element and binder has been optimized by employing large number of combinations. Using simple theoretical model, it is shown that too high (or low) concentration of catalysts result in loss of MFC performance. The operation of MFC has been investigated using domestic wastewater as source of bio-waste for obtaining real world situation. Maximum power density of ∼61 mW/m(2) was obtained when weight ratio of catalyst and conducting species was 1:1. Suitable reasons are given to explain the outcomes.
