Sci Rep 2024; 14:12313. [PMID: 38811620 PMCID: PMC11137160 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-62029-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2023] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/31/2024] Open
Abstract
In this study, porous carbon nanocubes encapsulated magnetic metallic Co nanoparticles (denoted as Co@N-PCNC) was prepared via pyrolyzing ZIF-67 nanocubes precursor at 600 °C and characterized by various technologies. It was used to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to degrade Congo red (CR) dye efficiently. Over 98.45% of 50 mg L-1 CR was degraded using 0.033 mM PMS activated by 75 mg L-1 Co@N-PCNC within 12 min. The free radical quenching experiments were performed to reveal the nature of the reactive oxygen species radicals generated throughout the catalytic oxidation of CR. The effects of common inorganic anions and the water matrix on CR removal were studied. Moreover, the results of the kinetic study revealed the suitability of the pseudo-first-order and Langmuir-Hinshelwood kinetic models for illustrating CR degradation using the Co@N-PCNC/PMS system. Ultimately, the Co@N-PCNC displayed good operational stability, and after five cycles, the CR removal rate can still maintain over 90% after 12 min.

It was used to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to degrade Congo red (CR) dye efficiently. Over 98.45% of 50 mg/L CR with initial pH of 5.5 was degraded by 100 mg/L PMS activated by 10 mg/L Co@N-C within 12 min. The free radical quenching experiments were performed to reveal the nature of the reactive oxygen species radicals generated throughout the catalytic oxidation of CR. The effects of common inorganic anions and water matrix on CR removal were studied. The Co@N-PCNC displayed good operational stability, and after three cycles, the CR removal rate can still maintain over 90% after 12 min reaction.

Abstract
A flexible nanocomposite film based on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), silver nanoparticles, and calcium titanate (CaTiO3) was synthesized using gamma radiation induced-reduction. Temperature-dependent structural, optical, DC electrical conductivity, electric modulus, and dielectric properties of PVA/Ag/CaTiO3 nanocomposite film were investigated. The XRD pattern proved the successful preparation of the nanocomposite film. Also, as the temperature increases, the average crystallite sizes of CaTiO3 and Ag nanoparticles decrease from 19.8 to 9.7 nm and 25 to 14.8 nm, respectively. Further, the optical band gap increased from 5.75 to 5.84 eV with increasing temperature. The thermal stability is improved, and the semiconductor behavior for PVA/Ag/CaTiO3 nanocomposite film is confirmed by thermal activation energy ΔE with values in the 0.11-0.8 eV range. Furthermore, the maximum barrier Wm value was found of 0.29 eV. PVA/Ag/CaTiO3 nanocomposite film exhibits a semicircular arc originating from the material's grain boundary contributions for all temperatures. The optical, DC electrical conductivity, and dielectric properties of the PVA/Ag/CaTiO3 nanocomposite film can be suitable for flexible electronic devices such as electronic chips, optoelectronics, and energy storage applications.

Photo-Stimuli-Responsive CuS Nanomaterials as Cutting-Edge Platform Materials for Antibacterial Applications. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14112343.

Abstract
Photo-stimuli-responsive therapeutic nanomaterials have gained widespread attention as frontline materials for biomedical applications. The photoactivation strategies are classified as single-modality (based on either reactive oxygen species (ROS)-based photodynamic therapy (PDT), hyperthermia-based photothermal therapy (PTT)), or dual-modality (which combines PDT and PTT). Due to its minimal invasiveness, phototherapy has been extensively applied as an efficient therapeutic platform for many diseases, including skin cancers. However, extensive implementation of phototherapy to address the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infections remains challenging. This review focuses on copper sulfide (CuS) nanomaterials as efficient and cost-effective PDT and PTT therapeutic nanomaterials with antibacterial activity. The features and merits of CuS nanomaterials as therapeutics are compared to those of other nanomaterials. Control of the dimensions and morphological complexity of CuS nanomaterials through judicious synthesis is then introduced. Both the in vitro antibacterial activity and the in vivo therapeutic effect of CuS nanomaterials and derivative nanocomposites composed of 2D nanomaterials, polymers, metals, metal oxides, and proteins are described in detail. Finally, the perspective of photo-stimuli-responsive CuS nanomaterials for future clinical antibacterial applications is highlighted. This review illustrates that CuS nanomaterials are highly effective, low-toxic, and environmentally friendly antibacterial agents or platform nanomaterials for combatting MDR bacterial infections.

Abstract
Twelve Cu-based ternary (Cu-Me1-S, Me1 = Fe, Sn, or Sb) and quaternary (Cu-Me2-Sn-S, Me2 = Fe, Zn, or V) nanocrystalline sulfides are shown as perspective antibacterial materials here. They were prepared from elemental precursors by a one-step solvent-free mechanochemical synthesis in a 100 g batch using scalable eccentric vibratory ball milling. Most of the products have shown strong antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. For instance, stannite Cu2FeSnS4 and mohite Cu2SnS3 were the most active against E. coli, whereas kesterite Cu2ZnSnS4 and rhodostannite Cu2FeSn3S8 exhibited the highest antibacterial activity against S. aureus. In general, stannite has shown the best antibacterial properties out of all the studied samples. Five out of twelve products have been prepared using mechanochemical synthesis for the first time in a scalable fashion here. The presented synthetic approach is a promising alternative to traditional syntheses of nanomaterials suitable for biological applications and shows ternary and quaternary sulfides as potential candidates for the next-generation antibacterial agents.

Abstract
Herein, a novel chitosan/silver/Mn0.5Mg0.5Fe2O4 (Cs/Ag/MnMgFe2O4) nanocomposite was synthesized with gamma irradiation assistant. The prepared Cs/Ag/MnMgFe2O4 nanocomposite was characterized via EDX, XRD, SEM, UV-vis spectroscopy. To evaluate the effects of soak low and high-dose nanocomposite on physiological parameters, photosynthetic pigments, antioxidant and non-antioxidant enzymes of cabbage under Cd stress, a factorial experiment was conducted based on CRD with five replications. The Cd stress decreased the morphological characteristics and photosynthetic pigments while increasing cabbage's antioxidant and non-antioxidant enzymes. The application of low and high-dose of nanocomposite decreased Cd content in leaves by about 42.86%, 60.48%, and the root by approximately 18.72%, 28.72%, respectively, and translocation factors and tolerance index, H2O2, O2, and malondialdehyde. In contrast, the application of high of the nanocomposite increased the values of SPAD chlorophyll about 27.50%, stomatal conductance about 87.18%, net photosynthetic rate about 44.90%, intercellular CO2 concentration about 32.00%, and transpiration rate about 85.20%, as compared to Cd stress. Furthermore, the application of low and high-dose Cs/Ag/MnMgFe2O4 nanocomposite enhances the antioxidant and non-antioxidant enzymes of the cabbage plant compared to Cd stress. Generally, it was conducted that Cs/Ag/MnMgFe2O4 nanocomposite can be used as a proper tool for increasing cabbage plants under Cd stress.
