Developing a novel lithium-ion battery anode material via thiol functionalization of diatom frustules plus Ag modification. iScience 2024; 27:108850. [PMID: 38303716 PMCID: PMC10831931 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2024.108850] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2023] [Revised: 12/08/2023] [Accepted: 01/04/2024] [Indexed: 02/03/2024] Open
Abstract
The biosilicification of diatoms allows for the customization of the synthesis of functionalized diatom frustules. The S active sites (-SH) on diatom frustules were created by adding the organic silicon sources tetramethoxysilane (TMOS) and (3-mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane (MPTMS). The mechanisms of adsorption-reduction and the indirect effects of S active sites on electrochemical performance were declared. The DBS@C-Ag-3 anode material sourced from the cultivation condition with a silicon source of TMOS:MPTMS = 3:1 shows the best comprehensive performance and delivers a discharge capacity of ∼660 mAh·g-1 after 1000 cycles at 1 A·g-1. The electrochemical performance of DBS@C-Ag anode materials is also found to be dominated by structure at high temperatures and conductivity at low temperatures. Such a diatom frustule structure with sulfhydryl functionalization is promising for anode materials, and it suggests a biological strategy for creating other electrode materials by modifying them with metals to improve electrochemical performances.

Abstract
Growing research interest in the use of diatomaceous biosilica results from its unique properties, such as chemical inertness, biocompatibility, high mechanical and thermal stability, low thermal conductivity, homogeneous porous structure with a large specific surface. Unlike the production of synthetic silica materials with a micro- or nano-scale structure in an expensive conventional manufacturing process, diatomaceous biosilica can be produced in huge quantities without significant expenditure of energy and materials. This fact makes it an unlimited, easily accessible, natural, inexpensive, and renewable material. Moreover, the production of bio-silica is extremely environmentally friendly, as there is essentially no toxic waste, and the process does not require more energy compared to the production of synthetic silica-based materials. For all these reasons, diatoms are an intriguing alternative to synthetic materials in developing cheap biomaterials used in a different branch of industry. In review has been reported the state-of-art of biosilica materials, their characteristics approaches, and possible way of application. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Abstract
The Ocean covers two-third of our planet and has great biological heterogeneity. Marine organisms like algae, vertebrates, invertebrates, and microbes are known to provide many natural products with biological activities as well as potent sources of biomaterials for therapeutic, biomedical, biosensors, and climate stabilization. Over the years, the field of biosensors have gained huge attention due to their extraordinary ability to provide early disease diagnosis, rapid detection of various molecules and substances along with long term monitoring. This review aims to focus on the properties and employment of various biomaterials (Carbohydrate polymers, proteins, polyacids etc) of marine origin such as Alginate, Chitin, Chitosan, Fucoidan, Carrageenan, Chondroitin Sulfate (CS), Hyaluronic acid (HA), Collagen, marine pigments, marine nanoparticles, Hydroxyapatite (HAp), Biosilica, lectins, and marine whole cell in the design and development of biosensors. Further, this review also covers the source of such marine biomaterials and their promising evolution in the fabrication of biosensors that are potent to be employed in the biomedical, environmental science and agricultural sciences domains. The use of such fabricated biosensors harness the system with excellent specificity, selectivity, biocompatibility, thermally stable and minimal cost advantages.

[PMID: 32309110 PMCID: PMC7150667 DOI: 10.1007/s13205-020-02191-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2020] [Accepted: 04/01/2020] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Fungal pathogen, Tilletia indica, the cause of Karnal bunt disease in wheat, is severely affecting the yield and grain quality, worldwide. Thus, strict quarantine regulations by most wheat growing countries have to be followed, leading to trade barriers for wheat export. The conventional methods being used for pathogen detection at symptomatic stage requires the germination of Tilletia spores for the processing of samples. Thus, it is time-consuming and expensive. This study proposes a simulated microcantilever-based piezoelectric biosensor for the early detection of T. indica. Four different materials, SiO2, SiC, Si3N4, and Poly Si, were used for the microcantilever design. Microcantilever was coated with siliceous frustules of diatom that provides high surface area and enhanced sensitivity for specific antibody against the antigen, T. indica. Ansys software was used for the simulation analysis. Simulation results showed that microcantilever beam of SiO2 length of 150 µm, width of 30 µm and thickness 1 µm enhanced the sensitivity by two times against the antibody in comparison to normal microcantilever beam. The results concluded that SiO2 with coated diatom is the best material for the microcantilever fabrication, thus, providing an excellent protocol for fabrication of microcantilever-based biosensor which is both cost- and time effective.

Abstract
Porous materials showing some useful transducing features, i.e., any changes in their physical or chemical properties as a consequence of molecular interaction, are very attractive in the realization of sensors and biosensors. Diatom frustules have been gaining support for biosensors since they are made of nanostructured amorphous silica, but do not require any nano-fabrication step; their surface can be easily functionalized and customized for specific application; diatom frustules are photoluminescent, and they can be found in almost every pond of water on the Earth, thus assuring large and low-cost availability. In this review, the most recent advances in diatom-based biosensors are reported, and a perspective view on future developments is given.
