Enhancing Wastewater Depollution: Sustainable Biosorption Using Chemically Modified Chitosan Derivatives for Efficient Removal of Heavy Metals and Dyes. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 17:2724. [PMID: 38893988 PMCID: PMC11173971 DOI: 10.3390/ma17112724] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2024] [Revised: 05/10/2024] [Accepted: 05/24/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024]
Abstract
Driven by concerns over polluted industrial wastewater, particularly heavy metals and dyes, this study explores biosorption using chemically cross-link chitosan derivatives as a sustainable and cost-effective depollution method. Chitosan cross-linking employs either water-soluble polymers and agents like glutaraldehyde or copolymerization of hydrophilic monomers with a cross-linker. Chemical cross-linking of polymers has emerged as a promising approach to enhance the wet-strength properties of materials. The chitosan thus extracted, as powder or gel, was used to adsorb heavy metals (lead (Pb2+) and copper (Cu2+)) and dyes (methylene blue (MB) and crystal violet (CV)). Extensive analysis of the physicochemical properties of both the powder and hydrogel adsorbents was conducted using a range of analytical techniques, including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), as well as 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). To gain a comprehensive understanding of the sorption process, the effect of contact time, pH, concentration, and temperature was investigated. The adsorption capacity of chitosan powder for Cu(II), Pb(II), methylene blue (MB), and crystal violet (CV) was subsequently determined as follows: 99, 75, 98, and 80%, respectively. In addition, the adsorption capacity of chitosan hydrogel for Cu(II), Pb(II), MB, and CV was as follows: 85, 95, 85, and 98%, respectively. The experimental data obtained were analyzed using the Langmuir, Freundlich, and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm models. The isotherm study revealed that the adsorption equilibrium is well fitted to the Freundlich isotherm (R2 = 0.998), and the sorption capacity of both chitosan powder and hydrogel was found to be exceptionally high (approximately 98%) with the adsorbent favoring multilayer adsorption. Besides, Dubinin has given an indication that the sorption process was dominated by Van der Waals physical forces at all studied temperatures.

Abstract
Medicinal plants are hosts to an infinite number of microorganisms, commonly referred to as endophytes which are rich in bioactive metabolites yielding favorable biological activities. The endophytes are known to have a profound impact on their host plant by promoting the accumulation of secondary metabolites which are beneficial to humankind. In the present study, the fungal endophyte, Fusarium solani (ABR4) from the medicinal plant Tinospora cordifolia, was assessed for its bioactive secondary metabolites employing fermentation on a solid rice medium. The crude ABR4 fungal extract was sequentially purified using the solvent extraction method and characterized using different spectroscopic and analytical techniques namely TLC, UV spectroscopic analysis, HRESI-MS, FTIR, and GC-MS analysis. The GC-MS analysis revealed the presence of pyridine, benzoic acid, 4-[(trimethylsilyl)oxy]-trimethylsilyl ester, hexadecanoic acid trimethylsilyl ester, and oleic acid trimethylsilyl ester. The cytotoxic ability of ABR4 was evaluated by MTT assay against lung cancer (A549) and breast cancer (MCF-7) cell lines. The compounds did not exhibit significant cytotoxicity against the tested cell lines. The endophytic ABR4 extract was evaluated for its antimicrobial potential against human pathogens (S. aureus, B. cereus, E. coli, S. typhimurium, P. aeruginosa, and C. albicans) by recording 47 to 54% inhibition. Taken together, the endophytic fungal strain ABR4 demonstrated a remarkable antimicrobial activity against the tested pathogens. Furthermore, the functional metabolites isolated from the endophytic strain ABR4 reveal its broader usage as antimicrobial agents for newer drug development in the pharmaceutical industry.

Wang F, Zheng Y, Ning J. Biogenic preparation of copper oxide nanoparticles using table olive: Catalytic reduction, cytotoxicity, and burn wound healing activities. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 237:116995.

Abstract
Green strategy for the preparation of copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) using table olive has been researched in the present work. Some characterization assays viz., transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) was used for evaluation of the crystal structure, size and morphology of the manufactured NPs. As a catalyst, the prepared material demonstrated remarkable catalytic capability (>99% in 4 min) for the reduction of rhodamine B using sodium borohydride. In addition, the treated cells with the CuO NPs were examined by regarding the cytotoxicity properties on normal (HUVEC) cell line. The results showed that the prepared CuO NPs did not have any cytotoxicity effects on HUVEC (up to 500 μg/mL). Furthermore, in vivo experiments on burn wounds in rats show that the synthesized CuO NPs ointment significantly diminished (p ≤ 0.01) the wound area. On the other hand, the wound contracture factor was increased in comparison with the control groups. Collectively, the CuO NPs prepared by biological method have potential applications in organic pollutants reduction and wound care applications. In this viewpoint, CuO NPs may be considered as an effective for treatment of different wounds including burn wounds or injuries from surgeries such as plastic surgery.

Abstract
Nanotechnology has recently appeared as an important study subject in modern material sciences. Greener synthesis of nanoparticles has gained the attention of many scientists because of its integral characteristics such as effectiveness, eco-friendly, and low cost. In the present study by following the green synthesis approach, zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) were formed for the very first time by using Senecio chrysanthemoides leaf extract as a reducing agent. The UV-Vis spectrophotometer was used to study the synthesized ZnO NPs, and the specific peak was found to be at 349 nm. The characteristic Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) peak was found to be at 449 cm-1 which displays the peak of ZnO molecules. The surface morphology of the ZnO NPs was determined via scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) study showed that the synthesized ZnO NPs are present at the weight percentage of 66.38%. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectrum confirmed the hexagonal phase wurtzite structure, with the average particle size of 31 nm, and demonstrated the crystalline structure of ZnO NPs. Additionally, to all these experiments, we compared the anti-inflammatory properties of biogenic ZnO NPs to a standard drug. Biosynthesized ZnO NPs have revealed an effective anti-inflammatory activity at a higher concentration (100 mL-1) and showed 73% inhibition in comparison with diclofenac sodium drug. Zinc oxide was shown to be compatible with diclofenac sodium, according to the results. The ZnO NPs produced using the greener synthesis process have the potential to be used in a broad range of fields and also used as a good anti-inflammatory agent.

Abstract
Zinc oxide is a safe material for humans, with high biocompatibility and negligible cytotoxicity. Interestingly, it shows exceptional antimicrobial activity against bacteria, viruses, fungi, etc., especially when reduced to the nanometer size. As it is easily understandable, thanks to its properties, it is at the forefront of safe antimicrobials in this pandemic era. Besides, in the view of the 2022 European Green Deal announced by the European Commission, even science and nanotechnology are moving towards “greener” approaches to the synthesis of nanoparticles. Among them, biogenic ZnO nanoparticles have been extensively studied for their biological applications and environmental remediation. Plants, algae, fungi, yeast, etc., (which are composed of naturally occurring biomolecules) play, in biogenic processes, an active role in the formation of nanoparticles with distinct shapes and sizes. The present review targets the biogenic synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles, with a specific focus on their bioactive properties and antimicrobial application.

Abstract
The nanoparticles have unique and superior properties which make them applicable in almost every field of human life. Among the various methods that exist for the synthesis of nanoparticles, green synthesis is one of the best economic and eco-friendly methods compared with other conventional chemical methods. The nanoparticles synthesized by this method are also free from toxicity properties. This paper describes one such green synthesis method for zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) using the aqueous flower extract of Senna auriculata. The synthesized nanoparticles (SA-ZnO NPs) have been examined using UV-Vis spectrophotometer, photoluminescence spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. The antibacterial and antifungal activities of the synthesized NPs were evaluated against gram-positive bacteria (S. aureus, B. subtilis), gram-negative bacteria (E. coli, S. typhi) and fungal organisms (C. albicans, A. nigar) using disc diffusion method. Furthermore, the antidiabetic and anticancer activities of the NPs were also been examined by α-amylase inhibition assay and MTT assay, respectively. These studies ensured that the SA-ZnO NPs have significant antimicrobial, antidiabetic and anticancer activities.

Abstract
Cancer is regarded as one of the most deadly and mirthless diseases and it develops due to the uncontrolled proliferation of cells. To date, varieties of traditional medications and chemotherapies have been utilized to fight tumors. However, their immense drawbacks, such as reduced bioavailability, insufficient supply, and significant adverse effects, make their use limited. Nanotechnology has evolved rapidly in recent years and offers a wide spectrum of applications in the healthcare sectors. Nanoscale materials offer strong potential for curing cancer as they pose low risk and fewer complications. Several metal oxide NPs are being developed to diagnose or treat malignancies, but zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) have remarkably demonstrated their potential in the diagnosis and treatment of various types of cancers due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and unique physico-chemical attributes. ZnO NPs showed cancer cell specific toxicity via generation of reactive oxygen species and destruction of mitochondrial membrane potential, which leads to the activation of caspase cascades followed by apoptosis of cancerous cells. ZnO NPs have also been used as an effective carrier for targeted and sustained delivery of various plant bioactive and chemotherapeutic anticancerous drugs into tumor cells. In this review, at first we have discussed the role of ZnO NPs in diagnosis and bio-imaging of cancer cells. Secondly, we have extensively reviewed the capability of ZnO NPs as carriers of anticancerous drugs for targeted drug delivery into tumor cells, with a special focus on surface functionalization, drug-loading mechanism, and stimuli-responsive controlled release of drugs. Finally, we have critically discussed the anticancerous activity of ZnO NPs on different types of cancers along with their mode of actions. Furthermore, this review also highlights the limitations and future prospects of ZnO NPs in cancer theranostic.

Abstract
Plant secondary metabolites such as flavonoids demonstrate high degrees of antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer activities. Among flavonoids, quercetin plays an important role in inflammation by downregulating the level of various cytokines. Thereby, in this work, onion (Allium cepa) peel was successfully utilized for the synthesis of gold nano-bioconjugates acting as a natural therapeutic drug. In this process, crude onion peel extract was first divided into different fractionates, namely, ethyl acetate, butanol, methanol, and water, and they were subjected to various preliminary studies of antioxidant activities. The ethyl acetate fractionate shows high antioxidant activities in all the assays. The bioactive components were identified and found to contain a high amount of quercetin as confirmed by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry and high-performance liquid chromatogrpahy. Three gold nano-bioconjugates were prepared with different concentrations of the ethyl acetate fractionate. Various biochemical anti-inflammatory assays were carried out and compared with the active ethyl acetate fraction of the onion peel drug (OPD). The cytotoxicity of the nano-bioconjugate system and the OPD was checked in the myoblast L6 cell line from skeletal muscle tissues to evaluate the toxicity. All the three nano-bioconjugates A, B, and E demonstrated high percentages of cell viability, viz., 73.07, 72.3, and 69.15%, respectively, at their highest concentration of 200 μg/mL. The OPD also showed 88.56% cell viability with no toxic effects in the myoblast L6 cell line from skeletal muscle tissues. The reactive oxygen species reduction of nano-bioconjugate B showed a marked reduction of 76.77% at a maximum concentration of 200 μg/mL, whereas the OPD showed 68.17%. Hence, through this work, a cheap source of nano-bioconjugates is developed, which can act as a potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent and are more active in comparison to the OPD alone.
