Main scientific research achievements
Engaged in the research of trace element selenium and received research funding of more than 3 million yuan , published more than 20 papers in domestic and foreign academic journals, and successfully discovered nano-selenium. This research changed the dogmatic understanding of selenium research. In 2009, he accepted the invitation of the US FDA to publish a monograph on nano-selenium.
From 1996 to 2002, he presided over the project "Research on Nano-Se Synthesis and Biological Properties" of the Science and Education Department of the State Tobacco Monopoly Administration. It has passed the appraisal organized by the Science and Education Department of the State Tobacco Monopoly Administration. It is believed that it has made innovations in the research and application of selenium, and its results have reached the international advanced level, and has huge potential market and economic value. Presided over the acquisition of invention patent authorization, health food approval documents, and national-level new products.
In 2002, it won the Shanghai High-tech Achievements Transformation Project and industrialized nano-selenium. The nano-selenium product "Selenium Capsule" was launched nationwide.
In 2009, he was invited by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to edit the chapter "Nanotoxicological Evaluation of Food and Drugs: Biological Properties of Nanoselenium in vitro and in vivo" in the book "Nanotoxicology". This marks that Dr. Zhang Jinsong is at the forefront of nano-selenium research. (The number of Chinese scholars invited by this institution has historically been very small).

Honors
In 2003, he went to the National University of Singapore, the City University of New York, and the University of Chicago as visiting scholars.
In 2007, he was recalled by the "Hundred Talents Plan" of the National Nanoscience Center of the Institute of High Energy Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and received a research grant of 2.5 million yuan.
Main research results
1992~1996, as the main researcher completed the "Eighth Five-Year Plan" research project of Anhui Province "Leaf protein (1,5-bisphosphate ribulose carboxylase)" ) Crystallization Extraction and Application". Obtained a patented technology and transferred the above-mentioned industrialization technology. After expert review organized by the Anhui Provincial Science and Technology Commission, it was deemed that "some indicators of the industrialization technology of leaf protein have reached the international advanced level."
From 1995 to 2000, as the main researcher, he completed the key project of the State Tobacco Monopoly Administration "Biological Properties Research and Product Development of Active Red Elemental Selenium". Obtained a patented technology and developed a national high-tech product "Sewang Capsule" based on this patented technology and was approved by the Ministry of Health. Transfer the above-mentioned industrialization technologies and products. After expert review organized by the State Tobacco Monopoly Administration, it was believed that "the relevant research has not been reported internationally, breaking the traditional academic view that elemental selenium has no biological activity, and the research on the biological properties of active red elemental selenium has reached the international advanced level." Published seven papers in core journals of Chinese Natural Sciences, including four as the first author.
From 2001 to 2003, he participated in the national “973” nanomaterials research project during his doctoral studies, using biotechnology to prepare nanomaterials and study their physical and chemical properties. Published one research article as the first author in Advanced Materials and Journal of Materials Chemistry. In addition, as a collaborator, he published one research article each in Biofactors, Applied Physics Materials Science & Processing, Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry, Advanced Functional Materials, and Journal of Physics-Condensed Matter.
From 2004 to 2005, he participated in a project of the U.S. Department of Energy as a postdoctoral fellow, using biotechnology, biomineralization technology, and nanotechnology to self-organize synthetic peptide molecules with specific structures into nanowires and nanotubes. ordered array, and further mineralizes semiconductors on the surface of the peptide nanoarray, and finally obtains an ordered array of semiconductor nanowires and nanotubes. Study the application of the above arrays in highly sensitive biosensors and nanodevices. Invited to publish a review article as the first author in Advanced Materials, he reviewed, commented, and looked forward to the world's bionanotechnology based on peptide nanowires and nanotubes and its applications. In addition, he published two articles as the first author in Advanced Materials and one research article on biological nanomaterials in Bioconjugate Chemistry as a collaborator.
