Input (Chinese)

我们首次发现木材具有双功能能力，既可以高效电催化 CO2 还原为甲酸盐，又可以高灵敏度电分析检测杨梅素和镉离子。木材中高度发达的微通道确保了反应物和电解质的高效传输，大大促进了电极反应。活化的木质电极表现出优异的 CO2 电还原活性，在-1.8 V 时甲酸盐的电流密度达到 53.8 mA cm-2，法拉第效率（FE）为 70.8%，并具有高耐久性。与传统玻碳电极（GCE）及其衍生修饰电极相比，木质电极对杨梅素显示出更宽的线性范围（0.01-150 uM）和更低的检测限（3 nM），对镉离子检测显示出更宽的线性范围（0.01-50 uM）。

Output (Polished English)

We report the discovery that natural wood functions as a bifunctional electrode material, enabling both highly selective electrocatalytic CO2 reduction to formate and sensitive electroanalytical detection of myricetin and cadmium (II). The hierarchically aligned microchannels inherent to wood facilitate efficient mass transport of reactants and electrolyte, substantially enhancing electrode kinetics. The activated wood electrode delivers a CO2-to-formate current density of 53.8 mA cm^-2 with a Faradaic efficiency of 70.8% at -1.8 V, and maintains stable performance over extended operation. Beyond electrocatalysis, we demonstrate the first use of wood as an electrode matrix for electroanalytical sensing. For myricetin detection, the wood electrode achieves a linear range of 0.01-150 uM and a detection limit of 3 nM. For cadmium (II), the linear range extends from 0.01 to 50 uM. Both figures of merit substantially surpass those of conventional glassy carbon electrodes and their chemically modified derivatives. These results establish wood as a versatile, renewable, and low-cost electrode platform with dual functionality in energy conversion and environmental sensing.

Verdict

PASS - All quantitative data preserved, bifunctional property correctly expressed, no AI-template phrasing.
