Researchers from the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) have developed a confined trinuclear Ru sites in phosphine-incorporated porous organic polymers for the direct synthesis of alcohols from reductive hydroformylation of alkenes. Linear alcohols, as an important class of chemical products, play an indispensable role in areas such as food, pharmaceuticals, plasticizers, and lubricants. Direct conversion of readily available alkenes into high-value alcohols is important but ...

Researchers from Single-Cell Center at Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT), Chinese Academy of Sciences have developed a centrifugally-driven system，known as the Centrifugally-driven Nano-liquid Pipetting System (CNPS), offers a low-cost and easy-to-use alternative to microfluidic technology, significantly improving coverage and uniformity in single-cell genome sequencing.
Scaling down single-cell reactions to the nanoliter level is critical to minimize the risk of contamination, increase reaction efficiency, and reduce costs.

The researchers from the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) proposed the “dual-ligand” strategy for the first time, enabling the highly enantioselective chiral Bis(Salen)Al catalysts. Benefiting from unique and excellent properties, study on synthesis and application of chiral materials has important scientific significance and market value. However, the design, synthesis and application of chiral materials are still in their i...

Recently, Prof. Jiawei Zhu and Prof. Heqing Jiang from Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology, Chinese Academy of Science, (QIBEBT, CAS) have developed a B-site rock-salt-ordered double perovskite oxide of Sr2CuWO6 with superexchange-stabilized long-distance Cu sites for efficient and stable CO2 electroreduction. Carbon dioxide electroreduction (CO2RR) into high-value chemical feedstocks and fuels is a potential way to realize the carbon-neutral cycle. Cu-oxide-based catalysts are promising for CO2 electroreduction, but suffer from inevitable reduction and...

Recently, scientists from the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) have developed a droplet-based printing platform that can print single-cell droplets in a "one droplet per well" manner onto culture dishes or 96-well plates. This platform enables scalable, cost-effective, and fully automated single-cell phenotype acquisition and screening. With the rapid development of genome synthesis and editing technologies, droplet-based single-cell phenotype screening has become increasingly important. However, precise and high-throughput distribution of target droplets into specific macroscopi...

To address the limitations of low hydrogen mass transfer rates in the hydrogen-methane conversion process, researchers from the QIBEBT developed a biotrickling filter (BTF). The biotrickling filter facilitates microorganisms growth by utilizing packing material with rough internal surface. Additionally, it ensures full contact between the gas and liquid phases, thereby enhancing hydrogen utilization efficiency. Biological hydrogen-methane conversion refers to the production of methane through the action of microorganisms using hydrogen generated by electrolysis of water with residual power and carbon dioxide present in biogas. This approach promises to o...
