Abstract
Silver nanoparticles were synthesized inside the small plates of transparent polymer medium by reduction of silver cations. The difference in morphology and sizes of nanoparticles synthesized by chemical, photochemical and thermal reduction was revealed, which depends both on the component ratio of the mixture and on the reduction time for the specific component ratio The polymethacrylate matrix itself acts as the stabilizing agent. A colorimetric sensor based on polymethacrylate matrix and silver nanoparticles was developed for the detection of hydrogen peroxide. The optical properties of the sensor were characterized by spectrophotometer using the surface plasmon resonance. A colorimetric sensor with nanoparticles undergoing to thermal reduction showed a quick result for the determination of hydrogen peroxide in the range 0.2-4.4 mM with a detection limit 0.1 mM.

Abstract
"Water" contamination by mercury Hg(II) has become the biggest concern due to its severe toxicities on public health. There are different conventional techniques like ion exchange, reverse osmosis, and filtration that have been used for the elimination of Hg(II) from the aqueous solutions. Although, these techniques have some drawbacks during the remediation of Hg(II) present in water. Adsorption could be a better option for the elimination of Hg(II) from the aqueous solutions. "Conventional adsorbents" like zeolite, clay, and activated carbons are inefficient for this purpose. Recently, nanomaterials have attracted attention for the elimination of Hg(II) from the aqueous solutions due to high porosity, better surface properties, and high efficiency. In this review, a thorough discussion has been carried out on the synthesis and characterization of nanomaterials along with mechanisms involved in the elimination of Hg(II) from aqueous solutions.

Abstract
The selective quantitation of Cr(VI) was developed through colorimetric detection using starch-stabilized silver nanoparticles (starch-AgNPs). The detection of Cr(VI) was based on oxidative degradation of starch-AgNPs as the reduction of UV-Vis signal and the distinctive color change from yellow to colorless of starch-AgNPs were observed. To achieve the highest sensitivity by this method, pH 3, and only 1 min were required for the determination of Cr(VI). For analytical performances, two linear ranges of 0-6 µM and 10-80 µM with limit of detection of 0.93 µM (48 µg/L) and 11.57 µM (0.60 mg/L) were obtained, respectively. The developed colorimetric method was combined with inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) for the speciation analysis of chromium. The concentration of Cr(III) was calculated by subtraction of Cr(VI) from the total chromium concentration determined by ICP-OES. A satisfactory accuracy and precision based on the AOAC guidelines also proved that this simple and rapid sensor was successfully applied for speciation of chromium in real water samples.

Abstract
Mercury (Hg) emissions are increasing annually owing to rapid global industrialization. Hg poisoning can severely affect the human body owing to its persistence and bioaccumulation. In this study, hybrid nanoflowers (NFs) were synthesized by promoting the formation of primary copper-phosphate crystals coordinated with polydopamine (PDA) and Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), followed by coating with silver nanoparticles on the surface of the NFs (Ag-MNP-PDA-Cu NFs). The results suggest that the hierarchical structure of the NFs enabled a large surface area with nanosized pores, which were exploited for Hg adsorption. The adsorbed Hg ions could be further eliminated from the solution based on the magnetic characteristics of the NFs. Additionally, hybrid NFs functionalized with Hg2+-binding aptamers (Apt-Ag-MNP-PDA-Cu NFs) were prepared based on the silver-sulfur interactions between the Ag-MNP-PDA-Cu NFs and thiol-modified aptamers. The performance of both adsorbents demonstrated that the immobilization of Hg2+-binding aptamers significantly improved the elimination of Hg from solution. The Hg2+ adsorption isotherm of the Apt-Ag-MNP-PDA-Cu NFs followed the Dubinin-Radushkevich model, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 1073.19 mg/g. The Apt-Ag-MNP-PDA-Cu NFs adsorbed greater amounts of Hg2+ than the non-functionalized NFs at the same concentrations, which confirmed that the functionalization of Hg2+-binding aptamers on the NFs improved the Hg2+ removal performance. The results suggest that Apt-Ag-MNP-PDA-Cu NFs could serve as an efficient Hg-removing adsorbent, possibly by providing binding sites for the formation of T-Hg2+-T complexes.

Abstract
Recent trends in nanotechnology paved a way for the development of detection systems for heavy metals, toxins and environmental pollutants. The present study focused on Hg2+ detection by a core shell Fe@Ag-starch nanosphere phenylalanine conjugate. The characterization of core shell Fe@Ag-starch nanosphere was performed by using TEM, zetasizer, particlesize analyzer, UV-visible absorption spectrophotometer, EDAX, FTIR and TGA. The NPs showed λmax at 408 nm. The effective diameter of synthesized nanosphere was 37 ± 2 nm and it possessed the surfaces charge of -36.12 ± 2.5 mV. The Fe@Ag-starch-phenylalanine conjugate reacted with Hg2+, the yellow colour of the nanosphere phenylalanine conjugate became colourless. The real water sample was collected and the amount of Hg2+ was calculated by using the prepared nanosphere. The detection of Hg2+ at different conditions including various saline concentrations, temperature and pH were also studied and the detection was found to be effective at 40 °C, pH 5 and 0.1% of saline concentration. The LOD of Hg2+ ions by Fe@Ag-starch nanosphere were calculated to be 1.84 nM. The influence of other metal ions present in the analyte did not show any interference on Hg2+ detection. In addition, the photocatalytic and antibacterial activities of Fe@Ag-starch nanosphere were also studied. The study confirmed that the core shell nanosphere can also be used for environmental cleanup and disinfection.

Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have stable reactivity and excellent optical absorption properties. They can be applied in various industries, such as environmental protection, biochemical engineering, and analyte monitoring. However, synthesizing AgNPs and determining their appropriate dosage as a coloring substance are difficult tasks. In this study, to optimize the process of AgNP synthesis and obtain a simple detection method for trace mercury in the environment, we evaluate several factors-including the reagent addition sequence, reaction temperature, reaction time, the pH of the solution, and reagent concentration-considering the color intensity and purity of AgNPs as the reaction optimization criteria. The optimal process for AgNP synthesis is as follows: Mix 10 mM of silver nitrate with trisodium citrate in a hot water bath for 10 min; then, add 10 mM of sodium borohydride to produce the AgNPs and keep stirring for 2 h; finally, adjust the pH to 12 to obtain the most stable products. For AgNP-based mercury detection, the calibration curve of mercury over the concentration range of 0.1-2 ppb exhibits good linearity (R2 > 0.99). This study provides a stable and excellent AgNP synthesis technique that can improve various applications involving AgNP-mediated reactions and has the potential to be developed as an alternative to using expensive detection equipment and to be applied for the detection of mercury in food.

Abstract
The β-cyclodextrin shell of synthesized silver nanoparticles (βCD-AgNPs) are found to enhance the detection of hydrogen peroxide in urine when compared to the Horse Radish Peroxidase assay kit. Nanoparticles are confirmed by the UV-Vis absorbance of their localized surface plasmonic resonance (LSPR) at 384 nm. The mean size of the βCD-AgNPs is 53 nm/diameter; XRD analysis shows a face-centered cubic structure. The crystalline structure of type 4H hexagonal nature of the AgNPs with 2.4 nm β-CD coating onto is confirmed using aberration corrected high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). A silver atomic lattice at 2.50 Å and 2.41 Å corresponding to (100) and (101) Miller indices is confirmed using the HRTEM. The scope of βCD-AgNPs to detect hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in aqueous media and human urine is investigated. The test is optimized by examining the effect of volumes of nanoparticles, the pH of the medium, and the kinetic and temperature effect on H2O2 detection. The βCD-AgNPs test is used as a refined protocol, which demonstrated improved sensitivity towards H2O2 in urine compared to the values obtained by the Horse Radish Assay kit. Direct assessment of H2O2 by the βCD-AgNPs test presented always with a linear response in the nM, μM, and mM ranges with a limit of detection of 1.47 nM and a quantitation limit of 3.76 nM. While a linear response obtained from 1.3 to 37.3 nmoles of H2O2/mole creatinine with a slope of 0.0075 and regression coefficient of 0.9955 when the βCD-AgNPs is used as refined test of creatinine. Values ranging from 34.62 ± 0.23 nmoles of H2O2/mole of creatinine and 54.61 ± 1.04 nmoles of H2O2/mole of creatinine when the matrix is not diluted and between 32.16 ± 0.42 nmoles of H2O2/mole of creatinine and 49.66 ± 0.80 nmoles of H2O2/mole of creatinine when the matrix is twice diluted are found in freshly voided urine of seven apparent healthy men aged between 20 and 40 years old.

Abstract
Cheeseweed mallow (Malva parviflora L.) was used to biosynthesize silver nanoparticles. The biosynthesized silver nanoparticles were classified by UV-vis Spectroscopy and Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR). The shape and size distribution were visualized by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), and Zeta potential analysis. The chemical composition of M. parviflora leaf extract was identified by Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectroscopy (GC/MS). Finally, in vitro antifungal assay was done to assess the potential of biosynthesized silver nanoparticles and crude leaf extract of M. parviflora for inhibiting the mycelial growth of phytopathogenic fungi. The UV-vis analysis manifests the formation of silver nanoparticles. FTIR analysis established that chemicals of the leaf extract stabilized the biosynthesized silver nanoparticles by binding with the free silver ions. The TEM, FE-SEM and zeta potential analyzer confirmed that the biosynthesized silver nanoparticles were mostly spherical with an average diameter of 50.6 nm. The biosynthesized silver nanoparticles and leaf extract of M. parviflora effectively mitigate the mycelial growth of Helminthosporium rostratum, Fusarium solani, Fusarium oxysporum, and Alternaria alternata. The maximum reduction in mycelial growth by biosynthesized nanoparticles was observed against H. rostratum (88.6%). Whereas, the leaf extract of M. parviflora was most effective against F. solani (65.3%). Thus, the biosynthesis of nanoparticle assisted by M. parviflora is a feasible and eco-friendly method for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles. Further the silver nanoparticles and leaf extract of M. parviflora could be explored for the development of the fungicide.

Abstract
The development of nanotechnology for hazardous heavy metal detection with nanoparticles (NPs) created an interest for the preparation of MnS/Ag nanocomposite. Here, MnS/Ag-polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) nanocomposite was developed for the detection of mercury. The prepared composite was analyzed using particle size analyzer, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), Ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, zetasizer, high resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The λmax of MnS/Ag-PVP nanocomposite was observed at 404 nm. The particle size was determined to be 21 ± 1.7 nm and the surface charge was -31.19 ± 3 mV. The brownish yellow colour of the nanocomposite changed into colourless when Hg2+ was added. The different metal ions present with the analyte did not show any interference on detection of Hg2+. The MnS/Ag-PVP nanocomposite incorporated paper and gel exhibited visual detection of Hg2+ from aqueous sample. There was an excellent linearity (y = -0.0015x + 0.8744) found in plot of 20 to 100 nM Hg2+ concentrations versus absorbance at 404 nm and the LOD was calculated to be 16 nM. The probe was applied to quantify Hg2+ from spiked environmental sample and the results were further confirmed with atomic absorption spectrophotometric analysis. Hence, the investigation suggests that the present probe could efficiently detect and quantify Hg2+ at nano molar level. In addition, the study suggests that MnS/Ag-PVP nanocomposite exhibit multifunctional property including efficient photocatalytic and antimicrobial activity. The antibacterial activity was evaluated against both gram positive and gram negative bacteria.

Highly Sensitive and Selective Colorimetric Sensor of Mercury (II) based on Layer-by-Layer Deposition of Gold/Silver Bimetallic Nanoparticles. Molecules 2020; 25:molecules25194443. [PMID: 32992632 PMCID: PMC7583855 DOI: 10.3390/molecules25194443] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2020] [Revised: 09/24/2020] [Accepted: 09/26/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
A new colorimetric sensor based on gold/silver bimetallic nanoparticles (Au-Ag BNPs) for the sensitive and selective detection of mercury (II) was developed. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were synthesized by Turkevich method. The surface modification of AuNPs was modified by the layer-by-layer technique using poly(diallyl dimethylammonium chloride) which provided positively charged of AuNPs. Negatively charged silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized by chemical reduction using poly(4-styrenesulfonic acid-co-maleic acid) as the stabilizing agent. The layer-by-layer assembly deposition technique was used to prepare Au-Ag BNPs of positively and negatively charged of AuNPs and AgNPs, respectively. The synthesized Au-Ag BNPs were characterized by a UV-visible spectrophotometer, zeta potential analyzer, FT-IR, TEM, XRD, and EDX. The Au-Ag BNPs sensor was able to detect mercury (II) in aqueous solution, visibly changing from brownish-orange to purple. The linear relationships of the UV-visible spectrometry demonstrate that the Au-Ag BNPs-based colorimetric sensor can be used for the quantitative analysis of mercury (II) in the range of 0.5-80 mg L-1, with the correlation coefficient, r2 = 0.9818. The limit of detection (LOD) of mercury (II) was found to be 0.526 + 0.001 mg L-1. The BNPs is also verified to have a good practical applicability for mercury (II) detection in the real samples.

Abstract
Heavy metal ion pollution is a severe problem in environmental protection and especially in human health due to their bioaccumulation in organisms. Mercury (II) (Hg2+), even at low concentrations, can lead to DNA damage and give permanent harm to the central nervous system by easily passing through biological membranes. Therefore, sensitive detection and monitoring of Hg2+ is of particular interest with significant specificity. In this review, aptamer-based strategies in combination with nanostructures as well as several other strategies to solve addressed problems in sensor development for Hg2+ are discussed in detail. In particular, the analytical performance of different aptamer and oligonucleotide-based strategies using different signal improvement approaches based on nanoparticles were compared within each strategy and in between. Although quite a number of the suggested methodologies analyzed in this review fulfills the standard requirements, further development is still needed on real sample analysis and analytical performance parameters.

Abstract
Freezing is essential in the light-mediated transformation of organic pollutants. However, the effects of the freezing process on the reduction of Ag+ by natural organic matter (NOM) remains unclear, causing significant uncertainties in the natural formation of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). This study investigated the sunlight-induced reduction of Ag+ by NOM under natural or controlled freezing processes. Natural (outdoor) freezing experiments demonstrated intense aggregation and precipitation of AgNPs in three aqueous media, including a NOM solution and two river water samples, under natural sunlight irradiation. Indoor experiments under simulated sunlight irradiation and controlled freezing processes showed that freezing at -20 °C and repeated freeze-thaw cycles (-20 to 4 °C) drastically accelerated the formation and growth of AgNPs compared to maintenance at 4 °C. Finally, under the natural freezing process, commercial AgNPs were found to influence the redox reduction of Ag+ probably through a reduction in dissolution rates and homoaggregation with AgNPs newly formed in the river water samples. Additionally, the enhancement effect of freezing on AgNP formation was confirmed in the presence of Ag+ and AgNPs both at environmentally relevant concentration levels, especially upon light irradiation. This work emphasizes the importance of freezing processes on the natural formation of AgNPs.

Abstract
Colorimetric analysis of heavy metal ions can be realized by the aid of Ag nanoparticles to improve the analytical characteristics. The method is based on the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) properties of the Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs). In this work, we applied the AgNPs with the addition of dithizone to further improve the selectivity and sensitivity of Pb2+ analysis. Colorimetric sensing of Pb2+ ions based on the polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-stabilized-colloidal AgNPs in the presence of dithizone is reported. A linear decrease in the AgNPs LSPR absorbance at 421 nm was observed along with the increase in the Pb2+ concentration in the range of 0.50–10 µg/L. The other ions give a minor change in the LSPR absorbance of colloidal AgNPs. The Pb2+ limit of detection, the limit of quantification, and sensitivity were found to be 0.64 ± 0.04 µg/L, 2.1 ± 0.15 µg/L, 0.0282 ± 0.0040 L/µg (n = 5), respectively. The obtained sensitivity is comparable with that of the immunosensing method. The proposed method could offer a good alternative for colorimetric analysis of Pb2+ ions by using nanoparticles in the presence of ligands, which can improve selectivity.

Abstract
Even when present in very low concentrations, certain metal ions can have significant health impacts depending on their concentration when present in drinking water. In an effort to detect and identify trace amounts of such metals, environmental monitoring has created a demand for new and improved methods that have ever-increasing sensitivities and selectivity. This paper reviews the sensitivities of over 100 recently published biosensors using various analytical techniques such as fluorescence, voltammetry, inductively coupled plasma techniques, spectrophotometry and visual colorimetric detection that display selectivity for copper, cadmium, lead, mercury and/or aluminium in aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Mercury ion (Hg2+) is one of the most toxic heavy metals that has severe adverse effects on the environment and human organs even at very low concentrations. Therefore, highly sensitive and selective detection of Hg2+ is desirable. Here, we introduce plasmonic micropinball constructed from Au nanooctahedron as a three-dimensional surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) platform, enabling ultrasensitive detection of trace Hg2+ ions. Typically, strong SERS signals could be obtained when the single-stranded DNA structure converts to the hairpin structure in the presence of Hg2+ ions, due to the formation of thymine (T)-Hg2+-T. As a result, the detection limit of Hg2+ ions is as low as 1 × 10-16 M, which is far below compared to that reported for conventional analytical strategies. Moreover, to achieve rapid multiple detection, we combine the micropinball sensors with microflow tube online detection. Our platform prevents cross-talk and tube contamination, allowing multiassay analysis, rapid identification, and quantification of different analytes and concentrations across separate phases.

Abstract
Colloidal inorganic nanoparticles have wide applications in the detection of analytes and in biological assays. A large number of these assays rely on the ability of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs, in the 20 nm diameter size range) to undergo a color change from red to blue upon aggregation. AuNP assays can be based on cross-linking, non-cross linking or unmodified charge-based aggregation. Nucleic acid-based probes, monoclonal antibodies, and molecular-affinity agents can be attached by covalent or non-covalent means. Surface plasmon resonance and SERS techniques can be utilized. Silver NPs also have attractive optical properties (higher extinction coefficient). Combinations of AuNPs and AgNPs in nanocomposites can have additional advantages. Magnetic NPs and ZnO, TiO2 and ZnS as well as insulator NPs including SiO2 can be employed in colorimetric assays, and some can act as peroxidase mimics in catalytic applications. This review covers the synthesis and stabilization of inorganic NPs and their diverse applications in colorimetric and optical assays for analytes related to environmental contamination (metal ions and pesticides), and for early diagnosis and monitoring of diseases, using medically important biomarkers.

Abstract
A very new and alternate function of an antibiotic drug levofloxacin (Lv), as a highly selective, colorimetric turn-OFF/turn-ON chemosensor for metal-ions Hg2+ and Fe3+, has been reported in this study. An extremely easy, very less time consuming, economical one-pot method of synthesis has been developed for the production of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The AgNPs that are stabilized and surface functionalized by Lv. Functionalization of AgNPs by antibiotic drug Lv has been thoroughly confirmed using FTIR spectrophotometry. Two carbonyl oxygen moieties, one belongs to the pyridine oxygen group and another one from the carboxylate oxygen group of Lv together form the binding site over the nanoparticle surface. The Lv-AgNPs system has shown naked eye detectable colour change, as well as significant change via both UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy. The limits of detection (LODs) are predicted to be 6.86×10-8M for Hg2+ and 2.52×10-9M for Fe3+ using UV-Vis spectroscopy and 2.35×10-9M for Fe3+ using fluorescence spectroscopy. UV-Vis spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, FTIR, TEM, DLS etc. have been used for the physico-chemical characterization of Lv-AgNPs system and the nanoparticle mediated sensing process. Detailed experimental and theoretical studies employing FTIR spectrophotometry and density functional theory (DFT) studies have been used for the elucidation of drug-nanoparticle based sensing mechanism. It is also demonstrated that the Lv-AgNPs system can show real time application using Test-Paper Kit to establish the drug-nanoparticle assembly as a potential colorimetric turn-OFF/turn-ON sensing system for Hg2+ and Fe3+ respectively.

Abstract
A stable silver nanoparticles/carbon quantum dots (Ag/CQDs) composite was prepared by using CQDs as reducing and stabilizing agent. The CQDs synthesized with polyethyleneimine (PEI) showed an extraordinary reducibility. When Hg2+ was presented in the Ag/CQDs composite solution, a color change from yellow to colorless was observed, accompanied by a shift of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) band and decrease in absorbance of the Ag/CQDs composite. On the basis of the further studies on TEM, XPS and XRD analysis, the possible mechanism is attributed to the formation of a silver-mercury amalgam. Hence, a two dimensional sensing platform for Hg2+ detection was constructed upon the Ag/CQDs composite. Based on the change of absorbance, a good linear relationship was obtained from 0.5 to 50μM for Hg2+. And the limit of detection for Hg2+ was as low as 85nM, representing high sensitivity to Hg2+. More importantly, the proposed method also exhibits a good selectivity toward Hg2+ over other metal ions. Besides, this strategy demonstrates practicability for the detection of Hg2+ in real water samples with satisfactory results.

Abstract
A sensitive and selective Hg2+optical sensor has been developed based on the redox interaction of Hg2+with starch-coated silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in the presence of 0.005 mol L−1HNO3. The relative intensity of the localized surface plasmon absorption band of AgNPs at 406 nm is linearly dependent on the concentration of Hg2+with positive slope for the concentration range 0–12.5 μg L−1and negative slope for the concentration range 25–500 μg L−1. Experiments performed demonstrated that metal ions (Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Pb2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Cd2+, Fe3+, Co2+, and Ni2+) do not interfere under the same conditions, due to the absence of oxidative activity of these ions, which guarantees the high selectivity of the proposed optical sensor towards Hg2+. The limits of detection and quantification were found to be 0.9 µg L−1and 2.7 µg L−1, respectively, and relative standard deviations varied in the range 9–12% for Hg content from 0.9 to 12.5 μg L−1and 5–9% for Hg levels from 25 to 500 μg L−1. The method was validated by analysis of CRM Estuarine Water BCR505. A possible mechanism of interaction between AgNPs and Hg2+for both concentration ranges was proposed on the basis of UV-Vis, TEM, and SAED analyses.

Abstract
With years of outrageous mercury emissions, there is an urgent need to develop convenient and sensitive methods for detecting mercury ions in response to increasingly serious mercury pollution in water. In the present work, a portable, ultrasensitive SERS sensor is proposed and utilized for detecting trace mercury ions in water. The SERS sensor is prepared on an excellent sliver nanorods array SERS substrate by immobilizing T-component oligonucleotide probes labeled with dye on the 3'-end and -SH on the 5'-end. The SERS sensor responses to the specific chemical bonding between thymine and mercury ions, which causes the previous flexible single strand of oligonucleotide probe changing into rigid and upright double chain structure. Such change in the structure drives the dyes far away from the excellent SERS substrate and results in a SERS signal attenuation of the dye. Therefore, by monitoring the decay of SERS signal of the dye, mercury ions in water can be detected qualitatively and quantitatively. The experimental results indicate that the proposed optimal SERS sensor owns a linear response with wide detecting range from 1pM to 1μM, and a detection limit of 0.16pM is obtained. In addition, the SERS sensor demonstrates good specificity for Hg2+, which can accurately identify trace mercury ions from a mixture of ten kinds of other ions. The SERS sensor has been further executed to analyze the trace mercury ions in tap water and lake water respectively, and good recovery rates are obtained for sensing both kinds of water. With its high selectivity and good portability, the ultrasensitive SERS sensor is expected to be a promising candidate for discriminating mercury ions in the fields of environmental monitoring and food safety.

Abstract
The use of maltodextrin supramolecular structures (MD SMS) as a reducing agent and colloidal stabilizing agent for the synthesis of Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) identified three key points. First, the maltodextrin (MD) solutions are effective in the formation of well-dispersed Ag NPs utilizing alkaline solution conditions, with the resulting Ag NPs ranging in size from 5 to 50 nm diameter. Second, in situ characterization by Raman spectroscopy and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) are consistent with initial nucleation of Ag NPs within the MD SMS up to a critical size of ca. 1 nm, followed by a transition to more rapid growth by aggregation and fusion between MD SMS, similar to micelle aggregation reactions. Third, the stabilization of larger Ag NPs by adsorbed MD SMS is similar to hemi-micelle stabilization, and monomodal size distributions are proposed to relate to integer surface coverage of the Ag NPs. Conditions were identified for preparing Ag NPs with monomodal distributions centered at 30-35 nm Ag NPs.

Abstract
Polymer matrix type chitosan-silver nanocomposite containing different weight percentage of silver was synthesized by the chemical method. HRTEM images confirm the embedment of silver in the chitosan matrix. The binding of silver to the NH2 and OH groups of chitosan is evident from XPS and FTIR studies. An increase in the absorbance observed from UV-Vis analysis on raising the weight percentage of silver showed the increase in the amount of silver in the nanocomposite. The face centered cubic structure of silver and the semi-crystalline nature of chitosan are evident from the XRD studies. On interaction with mercury the UV-Vis spectra of the composite showed a decrease in intensity and a blue shift confirming the use of the composite as a colorimetric sensor for the detection of mercury. The limit of detection was found to be about 7.2×10(-8)M. High specificity and the sensitivity of the environmental friendly and non-toxic nanocomposite to detect very low concentrations of mercury make the system a perspective one.

Abstract
In this work, selective colorimetric sensors for simple and rapid detection of Hg(II) ions based on the monitoring of an unmodified silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) reduction were developed. The average diameter of synthesized AgNPs was 8.3±1.4nm which was characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The abrupt change in absorbance of the unmodified AgNPs was observed which progressively decreased and slightly shifted to the blue wavelength as the concentration of Hg(II) increased, indicating the oxidation of Ag(0) to Ag(I) occurred. It appears that the AgNPs were oxidized by Hg(II), resulting in disintegration of the AgNPs into smaller particles as well as mediating the reduction of Hg(II) to Hg(0) adsorbed onto the surface of AgNPs. The adsorption of Hg(0) resulted in the lack of sufficient charges on AgNPs surfaces due to the decrease in the surface coverage of negatively charged citrate molecules, which then leaded to enlargement of AgNPs. The calibration curve of this technique was demonstrated from 0.5 to 7ppm (r(2)=0.995), the limit of detection (LOD) was 0.06ppm (SDblank/slope of calibration curve) with the precision (RSD, n=4) of 3.24-4.53. Interestingly, the results show a significant enhance in the Hg(II) analytical sensitivity when Cu(II) is doped onto the unmodified AgNPs, which improves the quantitative detection limit to 0.008ppm. In addition, greater selectivity toward Hg(II) compared with the other metal ions tested was observed. Furthermore, the percentage recoveries of spiked drinking water, tap water and SRM1641d (mercury in water) were in acceptable range with a good precision (RSD) which were in agreement with the values obtained from graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometer (GFAAS). The technique proposed in this study provides a rapid, simple, sensitive and selective detection method for Hg(II) in water samples.

Abstract
The present study investigated the colorimetric detection of mercury (Hg(2+)) ions by using silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) in the presence of glutathione. The nanoparticles used in the study were synthesized biologically by using Polyalthia longifolia leaf extract. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by UV-visible spectrophotometer, transmission electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, particle size analyzer and zeta sizer. The particles were spherical in shape and it possesses the effective diameter of 5 nm. The zeta potential of the particles was determined to be -28.6 mV. Ag NPs-glutathione conjugates were able to detect Hg(2+) in nanomolar level. Ag NPs-glutathione conjugates upon interaction with Hg(2+) changes from yellowish brown to pale yellow and finally colorless. The study may be applied for the qualitative and quantitative estimation of mercury at very low concentration.

Abstract
Certain nematodes are common soilborne organisms found in turfgrass in the United States that cause significant economic damage to golf course turf. One of the most prevalent plant-parasitic nematodes infesting turfgrass are root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.). Chemical treatment options for root-knot nematodes in turfgrass are limited, and there is a need for new nematicidal active ingredients to address this problem. In this study, we evaluated the use of silver nanoparticles (AgNP) as a potential nematicide in laboratory and field experiments. AgNP was synthesized by a redox reaction of silver nitrate with sodium borohydride using 0.2% starch as a stabilizer. When J2 of M. incognita were exposed to AgNP in water at 30 to 150 μg/ml, >99% nematodes became inactive in 6 hr. When turfgrass and soil composite samples infested with M. graminis were treated with 150 μg/ml AgNP, J2 were reduced in the soil samples by 92% and 82% after 4- and 2-d exposures, respectively, in the treated compared to the nontreated soil samples. Field trials evaluating AgNP were conducted on a bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon × C. transvaalensis) putting green infested with M. graminis. Biweekly application of 90.4 mg/m(2) of AgNP improved turfgrass quality in one year and reduced gall formation in the roots in two years without phytotoxicity. The AgNP application did not significantly reduce the number of M. graminis J2 in plots during the growing season. The laboratory assays attested to the nematicidal effect of AgNP, and the field evaluation demonstrated its benefits for mitigating damage caused by root-knot nematode in bermudagrass.
