Abstract
For uranyl extraction, a distinctive chelating ligand, namely ethyl 2-amino-6-hydroxy-5-(4-methoxyphenyldiazenyl)-4-phenyl-4H-benzo[f]chromene-3-carboxylate, has been synthesized and characterized using FT-IR, NMR, and ESI-MS. Subsequently, a cloud point extraction (CPE) protocol has been developed for the selective separation of the trace amounts of uranyl ions from some lanthanide ions after being captured by the ligand in the presence of non-ionic surfactant (Triton X-114). The extraction procedure has been optimized based on the concentration of the complexing agent and the non-ionic surfactant, phase separation temperatures, pH, and ionic strength. The developed CPE procedure exhibited a relatively low detection limit of 0.5 ng mL-1 in the linear range from 3 ng mL-1 to 250 ng mL-1. Furthermore, interference studies have been carried out to study the selectivity of our protocol. These studies revealed that the recoveries of uranyl ions were in the range from 96.1% to 99.9% in the presence of some lanthanide ions such as Th4+, Gd3+, and Sm3+. It is worth mentioning that the geometry optimization, reactivity, and molecular electrostatic potential maps of the ligand and the proposed UO2 2+ complex were acquired via DFT calculations to study their stabilities based on the geometry and binding affinity. The theoretical data confirmed the octahedral geometry of the UO2 2+ complex with the lowest energy and excellent stability. The robustness of the proposed methodology was evaluated by the detection of uranyl ions in different environmental samples and synthetic mixtures.

Abstract
More and more severe energy problem triggers extensive application of nuclear energy, and the adverse effects brought by nuclear materials such as uranyl to the environment are becoming the concern, as it has become a threat to human's health. Therefore, the detection of uranyl is increasingly important, which aims to make the application of uranium under surveillance and protection. A lot of detection methods employing varying materials based on different techniques for uranyl have been proposed including those using expensive and complicated instruments such as ICP-MS, ESI-MS, and neutron activation analysis etc. Those methods based on expensive instruments often provide quite low limit of detection (LOD) and excellent validity and repeatability, however, methods that are low-cost, convenient and rapid are in demand because these are satisfied characters for on-site and in-time determination. In the review, we discuss uranyl sensors based on spectrographic techniques, which is facile and promising for rapid assessment of uranium content in practical application. Spectrographic techniques including fluorescence, UV-vis spectrophotometry, resonance light scattering (RLS) and surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) are evaluated. In detail, the core materials that playing extremely important roles in detection performance are stated consisting of small molecule, biomolecule, polymer and nanomaterial.

Abstract
An explicit water molecular dynamics simulations were used to probe (6,6) and (9,9) single-walled carbon nanotubes, functionalized with three carboxylate ion groups at each of the two openings, as potential nanocarriers in aqueous solutions. Three tetraalkylammonium cations (i.e., tetraethyl-, tetrapropyl-, and tetrabuthylammonium) were tested as corks to cap the nanotube openings. The variation of the sizes of the nanotubes (diameter) and of the cork cations (bulkiness) allowed us to select the proper corks that fit the nanotube openings best. Smaller tetraalkylammonium ions could easily fit the openings, but since they are less hydrophobic compared to their larger analogues they showed less affinity for the interior of the nanotubes. On the other hand, the hydrophobicity (and thus the affinity for the nanotubes) can be adjusted through the increase of tetraalkylammonium cation size, providing that the cork still fits the opening. Additionally, an external electric field was tested as a means of nanotube uncorking. The field is capable of disjoining corked ions from the functionalized nanotube openings, triggering in this way a potential cargo release stored inside the nanotubes.

Abstract
Micellar extraction was applied to isolate famotidine from aqueous samples. This drug is an H2 receptor antagonist used for the treatment of stomach diseases. The process was performed with a mixture of anionic sodium dodecylsulfate and nonionic Triton X-114 surfactants. The effect of different parameters on the efficiency of the micellar extraction such as electrolyte and surfactant concentration, pH of sample, temperature, shaking and centrifugation time was investigated. The influence of foreign substances on a studied process was tested. The elaborated procedure was applied for HPLC–UV determination of famotidine in natural water samples. The calibration graph was recorded in the range 1.35–37.12 μg mL−1 of the studied compound. The repeatability of the method was equal to 7.4%. The limit of detection and quantification values for the determination of famotidine by using the proposed method amounted to 0.40 and 1.25 μg mL−1, respectively.

Abstract
In this study, a versatile polymeric material was synthesized by grafting Calcon Carboxylic Acid (CCA), which is known as a chelating agent for some metal ions, to polyacrylamide (PAA) structure. Thus, the adsorptive properties of inert PAA polymer were significantly improved owing to this procedure. The obtained new material, CCA-g-PAA, was characterized by point zero charge (PZC), FTIR, SEM, and UV-VIS-NIR analysis. The adsorption properties of new material were investigated comprehensively and experimental variables were optimized such as pH, temperature, time, and concentration. Experimental data were evaluated by using theoretical adsorption models. The maximum adsorption capacity of material was calculated as 0.079molkg-1 by considering Langmuir equation. The constants calculated from Freundlich and DR model were found as 6.98 and 0.441, respectively. Adsorption kinetic was also explained with pseudo second order and intra particular diffusion models. Experimental studies were showed that adsorption was endothermic and occurred spontaneously. The developed material has important advantages such as reusability, cost-effective synthesis procedure, high adsorption capacity, and selectivity.
