Biogenic fabrication of a gold nanoparticle sensor for detection of Fe 3+ ions using a smartphone and machine learning. RSC Adv 2024; 14:20466-20478. [PMID: 38946772 PMCID: PMC11208897 DOI: 10.1039/d4ra03265a] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2024] [Accepted: 06/21/2024] [Indexed: 07/02/2024] Open
Abstract
In recent years, smartphones have been integrated into rapid colorimetric sensors for heavy metal ions, but challenges persist in accuracy and efficiency. Our study introduces a novel approach to utilize biogenic gold nanoparticle (AuNP) sensors in conjunction with designing a lightbox with a color reference and machine learning for detection of Fe3+ ions in water. AuNPs were synthesized using the aqueous extract of Eleutherine bulbosa leaf as reductants and stabilizing agents. Physicochemical analyses revealed diverse AuNP shapes and sizes with an average size of 19.8 nm, with a crystalline structure confirmed via SAED and XRD techniques. AuNPs exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity in detection of Fe3+ ions through UV-vis spectroscopy and smartphones, relying on nanoparticle aggregation. To enhance image quality, we developed a lightbox and implemented a reference color value for standardization, significantly improving performance of machine learning algorithms. Our method achieved approximately 6.7% higher evaluation metrics (R 2 = 0.8780) compared to non-normalized approaches (R 2 = 0.8207). This work presented a promising tool for quantitative Fe3+ ion analysis in water.

Bekdeşer B, Apak R. Colorimetric Sensing of Antioxidant Capacity via Auric Acid Reduction Coupled to ABTS Oxidation. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:11738-11746. [PMID: 38497014 PMCID: PMC10938435 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c09134] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2023] [Revised: 02/13/2024] [Accepted: 02/20/2024] [Indexed: 03/19/2024]
Abstract
In this study, a simple and sensitive colorimetric assay has been developed for total antioxidant capacity measurement. The assay is based on the absorption measurement of the bluish-green oxidized product (ABTS·+) formed as a result of the oxidation reaction of the chromogenic reagent ABTS (2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) with gold(III). However, in the presence of antioxidants, the ABTS oxidation process is effectively suppressed due to the reduction of gold(III) ions to the zerovalent state forming gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). Relatively lighter colors and a significant decrease in absorbance are observed depending on the total antioxidant capacity. Taking advantage of this situation, qualitative and quantitative total antioxidant capacity (TAC) measurements, with the naked eye and UV-vis spectroscopy, respectively, could be successfully performed. The assay is named "auric reducing antioxidant capacity" (AuRAC) because the gold(III) ion-reducing ability of antioxidants is measured. The AuRAC assay was applied to dietary polyphenols, vitamin C, thiol-type antioxidants, and their synthetic mixtures. Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) values obtained with the AuRAC assay were found to be compatible with those of the reference CUPRAC (cupric reducing antioxidant capacity) assay. The AuRAC assay was validated through linearity, additivity, precision, and recovery, demonstrating that the assay is reliable and robust. Compared to the simple TAC assays in the literature based on AuNP formation with subsequent surface plasmon resonance (SPR) absorbance measurement, this indirect assay has a smoother linear range starting from lower antioxidant concentrations. This method displays much higher molar absorption coefficients for antioxidant compounds than other conventional single electron transfer (SET) assays because 3-e- reduction of trivalent gold (i.e., Au(III) → Au(0)) produces three chromophore cation radicals (ABTS·+) of the assay reagent. The sensor has been successfully applied to complex matrices, such as tea infusions and pharmaceutical samples. The AuRAC assay stands out with its high molar absorptivity connected to enhanced sensitivity as well as its potential to convert into a paper-based colorimetric sensor.

Abstract
The cornerstone of nanomaterial-based sensing systems is the synthesis of nanoparticles with appropriate surface functionalization that ensures their stability and determines their reactivity with organic or inorganic analytes. To accomplish these requirements, various compounds are used as additives or growth factors to regulate the properties of the synthesized nanoparticles and their reactivity with the target analytes. A different rationale is to use the target analytes as additives or growth agents to control the formation and properties of nanoparticles. The main difference is that the analyte recognition event occurs before or during the formation of nanoparticles and it is based on the reactivity of the analytes with the precursor materials of the nanoparticles (e.g., metal ions, reducing agents, and coatings). The transition from the ionic (or molecular) state of the precursor materials to ordered nanostructured assemblies is used for sensing and signal transduction for the qualitative detection and the quantitative determination of the target analytes, respectively. This review focuses on assays that are based on analyte-mediated regulation of nanoparticles' formation and differentiate them from standard nanoparticle-based assays which rely on pre-synthesized nanoparticles. Firstly, the principles of analyte-mediated nanomaterial sensors are described and then they are discussed with emphasis on the sensing strategies, the signal transduction mechanisms, and their applications. Finally, the main advantages, as well as the limitations of this approach, are discussed and compared with assays that rely on pre-synthesized nanoparticles in order to highlight the major advances accomplished with this type of nano-sensors and elucidate challenges and opportunities for further evolving new nano-sensing strategies.

Abstract
We developed a cost-effective and eco-friendly click biosynthesis of small molecule quercetin-gold quantum dots (QRT-AuQDs) involving quick conjugation using an ultrasonication method at ambient temperature by utilizing QRT and gold ions in the proportion of 0.1 : 1 (molar ratio). A comparatively very short amount of time (60 seconds) was required as compared to conventional procedures. The present biomimetics research relates to the isolation of bioactive QRT by the circularly spread silica gel layer technique (CSSGLT) and characterization (UV-Vis, FTIR, NMR and DSC analysis). Characterization of the synthesized QRT-AuQDs conjugated complex was carried out by UV-Vis, HR-TEM, DLS, zeta potential and X-ray diffraction. The main objective of the present work was to study the comparative anticancer activity of QRT and QRT-AuQDs on human lung cancer HOP-62 and leukemia K-562 cell lines. The results suggested that QRT-AuQDs showed potential for applications in anticancer treatment and were found to be a more cytotoxic agent in comparison to QRT, causing > 50% inhibition of cancer cells at the concentration < 10-7 M. Hence, small molecule conjugated QRT-AuQDs can be used as a promising material for biomedical, bioengineering and anti-infectives applications.

RSC Adv 2022; 12:6409-6415.

Abstract
Electrocatalysis of bioflavonoids in carbon nanomaterials plays an important role in electrochemical sensors for the detection of their content in fruits. In this study, three types of carbon nanomaterials with 1D, 2D, and 3D structures, namely carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene oxide (GO), and Ketjen black (KB), were modified onto glassy carbon electrodes for the electrocatalysis of hesperidin and naringin, which are two important bioflavonoids in fruits. As a result, the CNT-modified electrodes showed the highest electrocatalytic activity for both hesperidin and naringin compared to GO and KB. The morphology and surface chemistry of the carbon nanomaterials were characterized. The structural defects and carbon status of carbon nanomaterials are proposed to be the most important factors affecting the electrocatalysis of hesperidin and naringin. Finally, a CNT-based electrochemical sensor was fabricated to simultaneously detect hesperidin and naringin. Real sample tests on the fruit extract of Citrus grandis "Tomentosa" show that the proposed electrochemical sensors with high recovery thus could be employed in practical applications.

Abstract
This study reports a green, simple, and fast method for the synthesis of gold and silver nanoparticles using natural antioxidant compounds. The aqueous extract from dried rosehips (pseudofruit of Rosa canina L.) was used as a reducing and capping agent of HAuCl4 and AgNO3 during the noble metal colloid synthesis at room temperature and no other chemical reagent was used. The high antioxidant activity of the plant extract was proven by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl assay by a spectrophotometric method. The formation of stable gold and silver nanoparticles was observed by UV-visible spectroscopy and the evolution of their characteristic surface plasmon resonance band was followed over several days. Transmission electron microscopy confirmed the formation of quasi-spherical nanoparticles with mean diameters 26 and 34 nm, for gold and silver nanoparticles, respectively; XRD revealed an FCC crystalline structure for both gold and silver NPs. The effects of concentrations of noble metal precursor and plant extract solution on the formation, stabilization and size of nanoparticles are discussed, as well as some applications of these colloids.

Abstract
The development of analytical techniques for antioxidant compounds is important, because antioxidants that can inactivate reactive species and radicals are health-beneficial compounds, also used in the preservation of food and protection of almost every kind of organic substance from oxidation. Energetic substances include explosives, pyrotechnics, propellants and fuels, and their determination at bulk/trace levels is important for the safety and well-being of modern societies exposed to various security threats. Most of the time, in field/on site detection of these important analytes necessitates the use of colorimetric sensors and probes enabling naked-eye detection, or low-cost and easy-to-use fluorometric sensors. The use of nanosensors brings important advantages to this field of analytical chemistry due to their various physico-chemical advantages of increased surface area, surface plasmon resonance absorption of noble metal nanoparticles, and superior enzyme-mimic catalytic properties. Thus, this critical review focuses on the design strategies for colorimetric sensors and nanoprobes in characterizing antioxidant and energetic substances. In this regard, the main themes and properties in optical sensor design are defined and classified. Nanomaterial-based optical sensors/probes are discussed with respect to their mechanisms of operation, namely formation and growth of noble metal nanoparticles, their aggregation and disaggregation, displacement of active constituents by complexation or electrostatic interaction, miscellaneous mechanisms, and the choice of metallic oxide nanoparticles taking part in such formulations.

Abstract
Background:We have done a systematic study on the antioxidant activity of the methanol and petroleum ether (60-80°C) extracts (MEC and PEC respectively) of Curry leaves (Murraya koenigii Spreng. Family: Rutaceae) using various in-vitro chemical methods.Methods:Both of these two extracts were found to be highly efficient in the formation of Ag and Au nanoparticles. So, we have explored their ability to form the nanoparticles to study their antioxidant activity. In all the assay systems, MEC showed higher activity over PEC in aqueous medium. This may be due to the higher solubility of MEC and its active components, like polyphenols and flavonoids in the aqueous medium. PEC contains lesser amount of these water soluble active components but PEC was rich in carbazole types of alkaloids which are hydrophobic in nature. So, to enhance the antioxidant activity of PEC and its carbazole constituents, like 2-hydroxy carbazole and mahanimbine, we have encapsulated these in the biopolymeric matrix of the mucilage isolated from an edible vegetable, Abelmoschus esculentus L. (commonly known as Lady's finger, family: Malvaceae).Results:It was interesting to note that, PEC and its carbazole compounds showed better antioxidant activity (ferrous ion chelation and ferric reducing antioxidant activity) in aqueous medium after this encapsulation process.Conclusion:The protocols used in the present study were very simple and can be implemented in any lab set-up. In future, this work can be extended to evaluate antioxidant potentials of other plant based materials.

Abstract
The recombinant polyhistidine-tagged hemoglobin I ((His)₆-rHbI) from the bivalve Lucina pectinata is an ideal biocomponent for a hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) biosensor due to its high affinity for H₂S. In this work, we immobilized (His)₆-rHbI over a surface modified with gold nanoparticles functionalized with 3-mercaptopropionic acid complexed with nickel ion. The attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) analysis of the modified-gold electrode displays amide I and amide II bands characteristic of a primarily α-helix structure verifying the presence of (His)₆-rHbI on the electrode surface. Also, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results show a new peak after protein interaction corresponding to nitrogen and a calculated overlayer thickness of 5.3 nm. The functionality of the immobilized hemoprotein was established by direct current potential amperometry, using H₂S as the analyte, validating its activity after immobilization. The current response to H₂S concentrations was monitored over time giving a linear relationship from 30 to 700 nM with a corresponding sensitivity of 3.22 × 10-3 nA/nM. These results confirm that the analyzed gold nanostructured platform provides an efficient and strong link for polyhistidine-tag protein immobilization over gold and glassy carbon surfaces for a future biosensors development.

Abstract
Sensing of total antioxidant capacity (TAC) as an integrated parameter showing the collective action of various antioxidants is an important challenge in food, biochemical and drug analysis. A novel heparin-stabilized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)-based 'cupric reducing antioxidant capacity' (CUPRAC) colorimetric sensor was designed for TAC measurement. Heparin, a sulfated polysaccharide, was both the reducing and stabilizing agent for distinct negatively-charged AuNPs synthesis. The stabilized AuNPs were added to the copper(I)-neocuproine (Cu(I)-Nc) solution formed from the reaction of Cu(II)-Nc with antioxidants, and the absorbance of the resulting Cu(I)-Nc-AuNPs (Cu(I)-Nc cationic chelate electrostatically adsorbed on gold nanoparticles) was measured at 455 nm. As opposed to other similar AuNPs-based sensors, the proposed nano-sensor exhibited excellent (1000-fold) tolerance toward inert electrolytes without aggregation. The linear range was wider than that of conventional CUPRAC, with lower LOD (0.2 µM for trolox) and higher molar absorptivity (8.36 × 104 M-1 cm-1 for quercetin). The 'trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity' (TEAC) values and activity order for a number of antioxidants were in accordance with those of the reference CUPRAC assay. Antioxidant additions to black tea extract gave recoveries of 93-97% and RSD 2-6%. This green sensor significantly reduced reagent consumption, and operated in complex food samples with a simple, reliable and robust methodology.

Herein, we present an innovative strategy for optimizing hierarchical structures of nanoporous anodic alumina (NAA) to advance their optical sensing performance toward multi-analyte biosensing. This approach is based on the fabrication of multilayered NAA and the formation of differential effective medium of their structure by controlling three fabrication parameters (i.e., anodization steps, anodization time, and pore widening time). The rationale of the proposed concept is that interferometric bilayered NAA (BL-NAA), which features two layers of different pore diameters, can provide distinct reflectometric interference spectroscopy (RIfS) signatures for each layer within the NAA structure and can therefore potentially be used for multi-point biosensing. This paper presents the structural fabrication of layered NAA structures, and the optimization and evaluation of their RIfS optical sensing performance through changes in the effective optical thickness (EOT) using quercetin as a model molecule. The bilayered or funnel-like NAA structures were designed with the aim of characterizing the sensitivity of both layers of quercetin molecules using RIfS and exploring the potential of these photonic structures, featuring different pore diameters, for simultaneous size-exclusion and multi-analyte optical biosensing. The sensing performance of the prepared NAA platforms was examined by real-time screening of binding reactions between human serum albumin (HSA)-modified NAA (i.e., sensing element) and quercetin (i.e., analyte). BL-NAAs display a complex optical interference spectrum, which can be resolved by fast Fourier transform (FFT) to monitor the EOT changes, where three distinctive peaks were revealed corresponding to the top, bottom, and total layer within the BL-NAA structures. The spectral shifts of these three characteristic peaks were used as sensing signals to monitor the binding events in each NAA pore in real-time upon exposure to different concentrations of quercetin. The multi-point sensing performance of BL-NAAs was determined for each pore layer, with an average sensitivity and low limit of detection of 600 nm (mg mL−1)−1 and 0.14 mg mL−1, respectively. BL-NAAs photonic structures have the capability to be used as platforms for multi-point RIfS sensing of biomolecules that can be further extended for simultaneous size-exclusion separation and multi-analyte sensing using these bilayered nanostructures.

Abstract
Liver cancer is the fifth most common cancer and one of the leading causes of death in the world, and second most common cause of death in men. Natural products emerge as the most enduring approaches in the development of anticancer targeting drug. Hesperetin (HP), one of the abundant flavonoids found naturally in citrus fruits, has received considerable attention in anti-cancer promotion and progression. The present study was conducted to decipher the role of 0.5 ml hesperetin conjugated gold nanoparticles (Au-mPEG(5000)-S-HP NPs) during diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced hepatocarcinogenesis in male Wistar albino rats and shows the better antioxidant that possesses anti-inflammatory, anti-proliferation and anticarcinogenic properties and may modulate signaling pathways. The confirmation of polymer functionalized gold nanoparticles and drug loaded polymer gold nanoparticles were characterized by HR-TEM with EDAX, and DLS with Zeta potential techniques. The drug encapsulation efficiency and release properties were carried out in PBS at pH 7.4 for Au- mPEG(5000)-S-HP and compared with the control pure hesperetin (HP). Here, we review the role of mast cell counts, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), transcription factor nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), levels of glycoconjugates, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and argyrophilic nucleolar organizing regions, are the master regulator of inflammation and proliferation, in the development of hepatocellular injury, liver fibrosis and HCC. DEN-administered animals showed increased mast cell counts, tumor necrosis factor alpha, transcription factor nuclear factor-κB, glycoconjugates, proliferating cell nuclear antigen, and argyrophilic nucleolar organizing regions. Whereas Au-mPEG(5000)-S-HP NPs supplementation considerably suppressed all the above abnormalities. These results suggest that the Au-mPEG(5000)-S-HP NPs exhibited the better potential anticancer activity by inhibiting cell inflammation and proliferation in DEN-induced hepatocellular carcinogenesis.

Abstract
A simple and rapid method for measurement of total antioxidant capacity (TAC) was developed. In this work, gallic acid was used as the antioxidant standard. Poly(vinyl alcohol) embedded silver nanoparticles (PVA-AgNPs) were employed as a colorimetric sensor. The detection principle was based on the seed-mediated nanoparticle growth technique. The PVA-AgNPs act as a catalyst in the reduction of Ag+ by gallic acid by providing nucleation seeds. Ag+ was reduced to Ag° and accumulated on the PVA-AgNP surface, leading to an increase in the size of particles. The absorbance of the colloidal solution was drastically enhanced with a small red shift. Under optimal conditions, a linear response was established between the change in absorbance and the TAC value expressed in terms of gallic acid equivalents. The linear range was from 25 to 200μM with a detection limit of 22.1μM. Satisfactory precision was obtained with % relative standard deviation (RSD) of 2.17. The developed sensor was successfully applied for TAC assessment of commercial ginger products. The PVA-AgNP sensor offers rapid analysis (within 5min) compared to other nanoparticle-based antioxidant assays. Synthesis of the particles and assay involved less-toxic chemicals, and is therefore a "greener" method.

Abstract
The growing interest in functional foods had led to the use of analytical techniques to quantify some properties, among which is the antioxidant capacity (AC). In order to identify and quantify this capacity, some techniques are used, based on synthetic radicals capture; and they are monitored by UV-vis spectrophotometry. Electrochemical techniques are emerging as alternatives, given some of the disadvantages faced by spectrophotometric methods such as the use of expensive reagent not environmentally friendly, undefined reaction time, long sample pretreatment, and low precision and sensitivity. This review focuses on the four most commonly used electrochemical techniques (cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse voltammetry, square wave voltammetry and chronoamperometry). Some of the applications to determine AC in foods and beverages are presented, as well as the correlation between both spectrophotometric and electrochemical techniques that have been reported.

Abstract
Liver cancer is the fifth most common cancer and is still one of the leading causes of death world wide, due to food additives, alcohol, fungal toxins, air, toxic industrial chemicals, and water pollutants. Chemopreventive drugs play a potential role in liver cancer treatment. Obviously in the production of anticancer drugs, the factors like poor solubility, bioavailability, biocompatibility, limited chemical stability, large amount of dose etc., plays a major role. Against this backdrop, the idea of designing the chemopreventive nature of bio flavanoid hesperetin (HP) drug conjugated with pegylated gold nanoparticles to increasing the solubility, improve bioavailability and enhance the targeting capabilities of the drug during diethylnitrosamine (DEN) induced liver cancer in male wistar albino rats. The dose fixation studies and the toxicity of pure HP and HP conjugated gold nanoparticles (Au-mPEG(5000)-S-HP) were analysed. After concluded the dose fixation and toxicity studies the experimental design were segregated in six groups for the anticancer analysis of DEN induced HCC for 16 weeks. After the experimental period the body weight, relative liver weight, number of nodules and size of nodules, the levels of tumor markers like CEA, AFP and the level of lipid peroxidation, lipid hydroperoxides and the activities of antioxidant enzymes were assessed. The administration of DEN to rats resulted in increased relative liver weight and serum marker enzymes aspartate transaminase, alanine transaminase, alkaline phosphatase, lactate dehydrogenase, and gamma glutamyl transpeptidase. The levels of lipid peroxides elevated (in both serum and tissue) with subsequent decrease in the final body weight and tissue antioxidants like superoxide dismutase, catalase, reduced glutathione, glutathione peroxidise, and glutathione reductase. HP supplementation (20 mg/kg b.wt) significantly attenuated these alterations, thereby showing potent anticancer effect in liver cancer and the HP loaded gold nanoparticels (Au-mPEG(5000)-S-HP) treated animals shows the better treatment than the pure HP due to the solubility of drug, bioavailability and the target drug delivery of the biodegradable polymer. Histological observations were also carried out, which added supports to the chemopreventive action of the pure HP and HP loaded gold nanoparticles (Au-mPEG(5000)-S-HP) against DEN induction during liver cancer progression. These findings suggest that HP loaded gold nanoparticels (Au-mPEG(5000)-S-HP) shows better efficacy than the pure HP against lipid peroxidation, hepatic cell damage and protects the antioxidant system in DEN induced hepatocellular carcinogenesis.

Abstract
With the increasing interest in the health benefits arising from the consumption of dietary products rich in antioxidants, there exists a clear demand for easy-to-use and cost-effective tests that can be used for the identification of the antioxidant power of food products. Paper-based analytical devices constitute a remarkable platform for such expedient and low-cost assays with minimal external resources but efforts in this direction are still scarce. In this work we introduce a new paper-based device in the form of a sensor patch that enables the determination of antioxidant activity through analyte-driven on-paper formation of gold nanoparticles. The principle of detection capitalizes, for the first time, on the on-paper nucleation of gold ions to its respective nanoparticles, upon reduction by antioxidant compounds present in an aqueous sample. The ensuing chromatic transitions, induced on the paper surface, are used as an optical "signature" of the antioxidant strength of the solution. The response of the paper-based sensor was evaluated against a large variety of antioxidant species and the respective dose response curves were constructed. On the basis of these data, the contribution of each species according to its chemical structure was elucidated. For the analysis of real samples, a concentration-dependent colorimetric response was established against Gallic acid equivalents over a linear range of 10 μM-1.0 mM, with detection limits at the low and ultra-low μM levels (i.e. <1.0 μM) and satisfactory precision (RSD=3.6-12.6%). The sensor has been tested for the assessment of antioxidant activity in real samples (teas and wines) and the results correlated well with commonly used antioxidant detection methods. Importantly, the sensor performed favorably for long periods of time when stored at moisture-free and low temperature conditions without losing its activity thus posing as an attractive alternative to the assessment of antioxidant activity without specialized equipment. The use of the sensor by non-experts for a rapid assessment of natural products in field testing is envisioned. Importantly, we demonstrate for the first time that analyte-mediated growth of nanomaterials directly on the paper surface could open new opportunities in paper-based analytical devices.

Abstract
In this paper, we have shown that gold nanoparticles (Au (NPs)) embedded in Rubia cordifolia (RC) matrix (RC-Au (NPs)) exhibit a high therapeutic value relating to its anti-inflammatory characteristics. It was prepared by utilizing the reducing properties of RC to convert HAuCl4 into Au (NPs). In order to compare its effectiveness, with respect to Au (NPs), the latter was synthesized separately by reducing HAuCl4 with lemon extract. These Au (NPs) along with RC-Au (NPs) were characterized by X-ray diffractometry (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and UV-visible spectroscopy. The enhancement in anti-inflammatory characteristics was assessed as its inhibitory potential for lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced nitric oxide (NO) release, by rat peritoneal macrophages. The RC-Au (NPs) significantly enhanced its potential to inhibit NO release, which was reported in terms of inhibitory concentration for 50% inhibition (IC50=11.98 ng/ml), as compared to either RC extract (IC50=47 × 10(3)ng/ml) or to Au (NPs) (IC50=587.50 ng/ml).

Abstract
A colorimetric assay method is described for the environmental detection of 2-mercaptobenzimidazole (MBI) using surface plasmon resonance of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). Stable and dispersed AuNPs with intensified plasmon resonance were prepared in situ using a simple, rapid, and eco-friendly procedure by applying ascorbic acid as a reducer and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide as a stabilizer. The presence of MBI has a strong effect on the plasmon absorbance of AuNPs, which was employed for the detection of MBI. The calibration curve was linear in the range of 1.0 × 10(-6)-5.5 × 10(-5) mol/L of MBI; the detection limit was 8.4 × 10(-7) mol/L. The relative standard deviations for eight replicate measurements of 3.0 × 10(-6) and 5 × 10(-5) mol/L MBI were 3.9 and 1.4%, respectively. The method was successfully applied to the determination of MBI in tap, river, sea, and heat exchanger cooling water samples.

Abstract
Flavonoids such as naringenin and morin are ubiquitous in a wide range of foods isolated from plants, and have diverse effects on plants even on human health. Here, we establish a selective visual method for recognition of aringenin and morin based on the "switched on" fluorescence induced by a metal-organic coordination polymer of Zn(bix) [bix=1,4-bis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene]. Owing to the coordination interaction of aringenin and morin with Zn(II) from the polymeric structure of Zn(bix), the conformational free rotation of naringenin and morin is restricted leading to relatively rigid structures. And as a consequence, the fluorescence is switched on. While luteolin and quercetin, holding a very similar structure with naringenin and morin, have no such fluorescence enhancement most likely owing to the 3'-hydroxy substitution in the B ring. Under 365 nm UV lamp light, we can visually recognize and discriminate naringenin and morin from them each other and luteolin as well as quercetin based on the colors of their emission. With this recognition system, the detection of naringenin and morin in human urine was made with satisfactory results.

Abstract
In this work, we have developed a novel SERS-based approach to detect hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) scavenging activity by using gold nanoshell precursor nanocomposites (SiO2/GNPs) as nanoprobes. H2O2 can reduce AuCl4- to Au0 and enlarge the gold nanoparticles (GNPs) that attached on the surface of SiO2. As the concentration of H2O2 increases, the surface coverage of resultant gold on silica cores increases accordingly until continuous gold nanoshells (GNSs) are formed. During the growth process, there is a strong correlation between the SERS-activity of the GNSs and the amount of H2O2 that is used as reductant. When H2O2 reaches 250 μM, the resultant GNSs show the highest SERS-activity. H2O2 can be scavenged by antioxidants such as tannic acid and L-apple acid. Their H2O2 scavenging activities were determined by restraining the H2O2-mediated (250 μM) growth of SiO2/GNPs. The decrease of the SERS-activity was proportional to the H2O2 scavenging activity of the antioxidant. The results showed that tannic acid had a much higher H2O2 scavenging activity than that of L-apple acid.

Abstract
The biogenic synthesis of metal nanomaterials offers an environmentally benign alternative to the traditional chemical synthesis routes. Colloidal silver (Ag) nanoparticles were synthesized by reacting aqueous AgNO(3) with Medicago sativa seed exudates under non-photomediated conditions. Upon contact, rapid reduction of Ag(+) ions was observed in <1 min with Ag nanoparticle formation reaching 90% completion in <50 min. Effect of Ag concentration, quantity of exudate and pH on the particle size and shape were investigated. At [Ag(+)]=0.01 M and 30°C, largely spherical nanoparticles with diameters in the range of 5-51 nm were generated, while flower-like particle clusters (mean size=104 nm) were observed on treatment at higher Ag concentrations. Pre-dilution of the exudate induced the formation of single-crystalline Ag nanoplates, forming hexagonal particles and nanotriangles with edge lengths of 86-108 nm, while pH adjustment to 11 resulted in monodisperse Ag nanoparticles with an average size of 12 nm. Repeated centrifugation and redispersion enhanced the percentage of nanoplates from 10% to 75% in solution. The kinetics of nanoparticle formation were monitored using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy and the Ag products were characterized using transmission electron microscopy, selected-area electron diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, and atomic force microscopy. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy was used to investigate the elements and chemical environment in the top layers of the as-synthesized Ag nanoparticles, while the metabolites in the exudate were analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy. To our knowledge, this is the first account of M. sativa seed exudate assisted synthesis and stabilization of biogenic Ag nanoparticles; the nanoplates are notably smaller and better faceted compared with those synthesized by vascular plant extracts previously reported. Stabilized films of exudate synthesized Ag nanoparticles were effective anti-bacterial agents.

Abstract
Phytochemicals occluded in tea have been extensively used as dietary supplements and as natural pharmaceuticals in the treatment of various diseases including human cancer. Results on the reduction capabilities of phytochemicals present in tea to reduce gold salts to the corresponding gold nanoparticles are presented in this paper. The phytochemicals present in tea serve the dual roles as effective reducing agents to reduce gold and also as stabilizers to provide robust coating on the gold nanoparticles in a single step. The Tea-generated gold nanoparticles (T-AuNPs), have demonstrated remarkable in vitro stability in various buffers including saline, histidine, HSA, and cysteine solutions. T-AuNPs with phytochemical coatings have shown significant affinity toward prostate (PC-3) and breast (MCF-7) cancer cells. Results on the cellular internalization of T-AuNPs through endocytosis into the PC-3 and MCF-7 cells are presented. The generation of T-AuNPs follows all principles of green chemistry and have been found to be non toxic as assessed through MTT assays. No 'man made' chemicals, other than gold salts, are used in this true biogenic green nanotechnological process thus paving excellent opportunities for their applications in molecular imaging and therapy.
