Abstract
The progress in nanomedicine (NM) using nanoparticles (NPs) is mainly based on drug carriers for the delivery of classical chemotherapeutics. As low NM delivery rates limit therapeutic efficacy, an entirely different approach was investigated. A homologous series of engineered CuO NPs was designed for dual purposes (carrier and drug) with a direct chemical composition-biological functionality relationship. Model-based dissolution kinetics of CuO NPs in the cellular interior at post-exposure conditions were controlled through Fe-doping for intra/extra cellular Cu2+ and biological outcome. Through controlled ion release and reactions taking place in the cellular interior, tumors could be treated selectively, in vitro and in vivo. Locally administered NPs enabled tumor cells apoptosis and stimulated systemic anti-cancer immune responses. We clearly show therapeutic effects without tumor cells relapse post-treatment with 6 % Fe-doped CuO NPs combined with myeloid-derived suppressor cell silencing.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) quantification in biomedicine is valuable as inflammation biomarker but also in assays employing enzymes that generate or consume H2O2 linked to a specific biomarker. Optical H2O2 detection is typically performed through peroxidase-coupled reactions utilizing organic dyes that suffer, however, from poor stability/reproducibility and also cannot be employed in situ in dynamic complex cell cultures to monitor H2O2 levels in real-time. Here, we utilize enzyme-mimetic CeO2 nanocrystals that are sensitive to H2O2 and study the effect of H2O2 presence on their electronic and luminescent properties. We produce and dope with Eu3+ these particles in a single-step by flame synthesis and directly deposit them on Si and glass substrates to fabricate nanoparticle layers to monitor in real-time and in situ the H2O2 concentrations generated by Streptococcus pneumoniae clinical isolates. Furthermore, the small CeO2:Eu3+ nanocrystals are combined in a single-step with larger, non-responsive Y2O3:Tb3+ nanoparticles during their double-nozzle flame synthesis to engineer hybrid luminescent nanoaggregates as ratiometric robust biosensors. We demonstrate the functionality of these biosensors by monitoring their response in the presence of a broad range of H2O2 concentrations in vitro from S. pneumoniae, highlighting their potential for facile real-time H2O2 detection in vitro in cell cultures.

Abstract
This study investigated the coupling of sulfate radical generating oxidants, (persulfate, PS and peroxymonosulfate, PMS) with TiO2 photocatalysis for the degradation of microcystin-LR (MC-LR). Treatment efficiency was evaluated by estimating the electrical energy per order (EEO). Oxidant addition at 4 mg/L reduced the energy requirements of the treatment by 60% and 12% for PMS and PS, respectively compared with conventional photocatalysis. Quenching studies indicated that both sulfate and hydroxyl radicals contributed towards the degradation of MC-LR for both oxidants, while Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) studies confirmed that the oxidants prolonged that lifetime of both radicals (concentration maxima shifted from 10 to 20 min), allowing for bulk diffusion and enhancing cyanotoxin removal. Structural identification of transformation products (TPs) formed during all treatments, indicated that early stage degradation of MC-LR occurred mainly on the aromatic ring and conjugated carbon double bonds of the ADDA amino acid. In addition, simultaneous hydroxyl substitution of the aromatic ring and the conjugated double carbon bonds of ADDA (m/z = 1027.5) are reported for the first time. Oxidant addition also increased the rates of formation/degradation of TPs and affected the overall toxicity of the treated samples. The detoxification and degradation order of the treatments was UVA/TiO2/PMS > UVA/TiO2/PS>> UVA/TiO2.

Abstract
A novel material, PyrC350®, has been developed from pyrolytic-tire char (PyrC), as an efficient low-cost Arsenite [As(III)] adsorbent from water. PyrC350® achieves 31mgg-1 As(III) uptake, that remains unaltered at pH=4-8.5. A theoretical Surface Complexation Model has been developed that explains the adsorption mechanism, showing that in situ formed Fe3C, ZnS particles act cooperatively with the carbon matrix for As(III) adsorption. Addressing the key-issue of cost-effectiveness, we provide a comparison of As(III)-uptake effectiveness in conjunction with a cost analysis, showing that PyrC350® stands in the top of [effectiveness/cost] vs. existing carbon-based, low-cost materials.

Abstract
A novel hybrid material (gC3N4-rFe) consisting of amine-rich graphitic carbon nitride (gC3N4), decorated with reduced iron nanoparticles (rFe) is presented. XRD and TEM show that gC3N4-rFe bears aggregation-free Fe-nanoparticles (10nm) uniformly dispersed over the gC3N4 surface. In contrast, non-supported iron nanoparticles are strongly aggregated, with non-uniform size distribution (20-100nm). (57)Fe-Mössbauer spectroscopy, dual-mode electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and magnetization measurements, allow a detailed mapping of the evolution of the Fe-phases after exposure to ambient O2. The as-prepared gC3N4-rFe bears Fe(2+) and Fe° phases, however only after long exposure to ambient O2, a Fe-oxide layer is formed around the Fe° core. In this [Fe°/Fe-oxide] core-shell configuration, the gC3N4-rFe hybrid shows enhanced As(III) uptake capacity of 76.5mgg(-1), i.e., ca 90% higher than the unmodified carbonaceous support, and 300% higher than the non-supported Fe-nanoparticles. gC3N4-rFe is a superior As(III) sorbent i.e., compared to its single counterparts or vs. graphite/graphite oxide or activated carbon analogues (11-36mgg(-1)). The present results demonstrate that the gC3N4 matrix is not simply a net that holds the particles, but rather an active component that determines particle formation dynamics and ultimately their redox profile, size and surface dispersion homogeneity.

Abstract
Proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) reactions involve the transfer of a proton and an electron and play an important role in a number of chemical and biological processes. Here, we describe a novel phenomenon, plasmon-enhanced PCET, which is manifested using SiO2-coated Ag nanoparticles functionalized with gallic acid (GA), a natural antioxidant molecule that can perform PCET. These GA-functionalized nanoparticles show enhanced plasmonic response at near-IR wavelengths, due to particle agglomeration caused by the GA molecules. Near-IR laser irradiation induces strong local hot-spots on the SiO2-coated Ag nanoparticles, as evidenced by surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). This leads to plasmon energy transfer to the grafted GA molecules that lowers the GA-OH bond dissociation enthalpy by at least 2 kcal mol(-1) and therefore facilitates PCET. The nanoparticle-driven plasmon-enhancement of PCET brings together the so far unrelated research domains of nanoplasmonics and electron/proton translocation with significant impact on applications based on interfacial electron/proton transfer.

Abstract
Novel nanohybrid materials were prepared by covalent grafting of a polyphenolic polymer [Humic Acid Like Polycondensate (HALP)] on SiO2 nanoparticles. Four nanohybrids were so-produced, using four different types of SiO2 i.e. three Aerosil flame-made nanoparticles with nominal specific surface area of 50, 90 and 300 m(2)/g, herein codenamed OX50, A90, A300 respectively, plus a colloidal SiO2[S300] with SSA=300 m(2)/g. The antioxidant activity of the SiO2-HALP nanohybrids was evaluated by assessing their kinetics for Hydrogen Atom Transfer [HAT] to DPPH radicals. When normalized per same HALP concentration, bigger NPs SiO2[OX50]-HALP NPs can scavenge 280 μmoles of DPPH radicals per gram of HALP, while [A90]-HALP and [A300]-HALP NPs can scavenge 514 and 832 μmoles of DPPH radicals per gram of HALP, respectively. The colloidal SiO2[S300]-HALP can scavenge fewer DPPH radicals (252 μmoles) per gram of HALP. Based on detailed kinetic data it is shown that (i) surface grafted HALPs perform 300% better HAT than non-grafted HALP in solution. (ii) By controlling the particle type and grafting-loading, we can control/optimize the HAT performance: when grafted on the appropriate SiO2 surface the HALP macromolecules are able to quench up to 0.8 mmoles of DPPH-radical per gram of HALP.

Abstract
A graphene oxide-gallic acid hybrid material was synthesized by the immobilization of gallic acid (3,4,5-trihydroxobenzoic acid) on graphene oxide. The grafting was achieved via the formation of amide bonds between the amine groups on the organofunctionalized graphite oxide surface and the carboxyl groups of the gallic acid molecules. The EPR signal of the gallic acid radicals in this hybrid material remained almost unaltered over at least 500 days, with less than 3% signal decay over that period, pointing to the truly remarkable stability of these radicals. The produced material was characterized by Fourier transform infrared, X-ray photoelectron, and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopies as well as by thermogravimetric analysis and the Kaiser test. The stability of the radicals in the material was studied in powder form and in aqueous solution vs pH. We demonstrate that in the graphene oxide-gallic acid hybrid material a radical is favorably stabilized on the ring-O while the oxidation of the second OH is precluded, and this results in long-term stabilization of the gallic acid radicals in solid hybrid material. Thus, in applications where it will be used under O2-free and humidity-free conditions, the graphene oxide-gallic acid hybrid material is a reliable spintronics scaffold.

Abstract
A phosphonate-rich organosilica layered hybrid material (PSLM) made of 3-(trihydroxysilyl)propyl methylphosphonate, monosodium salt, as the single silica source, has been obtained from its aqueous solution through a xerogel process and mild thermal aging. The method is simple, affording bulk quantities of powdered PSLM in a single-step. The hybrid is stable in water and possesses a high content of phosphonate groups fixed on the solid matrix. In addition, PSLM shows good thermal stability, which exceeds 300°C in air. The material was characterized using SEM, TEM, XRD, FT-IR and TGA techniques. Potentiometric titrations show that PSLM bears high-surface density of phosphonate groups (3 mmol g(-1)). As a result, the material displays high metal uptake capacity for heavy metal ions such as Cu(2+) (2.72mmolg(-1)), Pb(2+) (1.67 mmol g(-1)) and Cd(2+) (1.00 mmol g(-1)) at neutral pH values e.g. the pH of natural waters. Detailed theoretical modeling using a Surface Complexation Model combined with Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectroscopy shows that the surface distribution of surface bound Cu(2+) ions is rather homogeneous e.g. copper-binding phosphonate sites are arranged in average distances 5-8Å.

Abstract
A fractionation technique, combining dialysis removal of metal and ash components with hydrofluoric acid and pH 10 citrate buffer followed by chromatography of dialysis permeate on XAD-8 resin at decreasing pH values, has been applied to lignite humic acid (lignite-HA) and soil humic acid (soil-HA). H-binding data and non ideal competitive adsorption-Donnan model parameters were obtained for the HA fractions by theoretical analysis of H-binding data which reveal a significant increase of the carboxyl and the phenolic charge for the lignite-HA fractions vs. the parental lignite humic acid (LParentalHA). The fractionated lignite-HA material consisted mainly of permeate fractions, some of which were fulvic acid-like. The fractionated soil-HA material consisted mainly of large macromolecular structures that did not permeate the dialysis membrane during deashing. Chargeable groups had comparable concentrations in soil-HA fractions and parental soil humic acid (SParentalHA), indicating minimal interference of ash components with carboxyl and phenolic (and/or enolic) groups. Fractionation of HA, combined with theoretical analysis of H-binding, can distinguish the supramolecular vs. macromolecular nature of fractions within the same parental HA.

Abstract
Gallic acid (GA) and its derivatives are natural polyphenolic substances widely used as antioxidants in nutrients, medicine and polymers. Here, nanoantioxidant materials are engineered by covalently grafting GA on SiO(2) nanoparticles (NPs). A proof-of-concept is provided herein, using four types of well-characterized SiO(2) NPs of specific surface area (SSA) 96-352 m(2)/g. All such hybrid SiO(2)-GA NPs had the same surface density of GA molecules (~1 GA per nm(2)). The radical-scavenging capacity (RSC) of the SiO(2)-GA NPs was quantified in comparison with pure GA based on the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH(•)) radical method, using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and UV-vis spectroscopy. The scavenging of DPPH radicals by these nanoantioxidant SiO(2)-GA NPs showed mixed-phase kinetics: An initial fast-phase (t(1/2) <1 min) corresponding to a H-Atom Transfer (HAT) mechanism, followed by a slow-phase attributed to secondary radical-radical reactions. The slow-reactions resulted in radical-induced NP agglomeration, that was more prominent for high-SSA NPs. After their interaction with DPPH radicals, the nanoantioxidant particles can be reused by simple washing with no impairment of their RSC.
