Abstract
Nanodrugs, which utilise nanomaterials in disease prevention and therapy, have attracted considerable interest since their initial conceptualisation in the 1990s. Substantial efforts have been made to develop nanodrugs for overcoming the limitations of conventional drugs, such as low targeting efficacy, high dosage and toxicity, and potential drug resistance. Despite the significant progress that has been made in nanodrug discovery, the precise design or screening of nanomaterials with desired biomedical functions prior to experimentation remains a significant challenge. This is particularly the case with regard to personalised precision nanodrugs, which require the simultaneous optimisation of the structures, compositions, and surface functionalities of nanodrugs. The development of powerful computer clusters and algorithms has made it possible to overcome this challenge through in silico methods, which provide a comprehensive understanding of the medical functions of nanodrugs in relation to their physicochemical properties. In addition, machine learning techniques have been widely employed in nanodrug research, significantly accelerating the understanding of bio-nano interactions and the development of nanodrugs. This review will present a summary of the computational advances in nanodrug discovery, focusing on the understanding of how the key interfacial interactions, namely, surface adsorption, supramolecular recognition, surface catalysis, and chemical conversion, affect the therapeutic efficacy of nanodrugs. Furthermore, this review will discuss the challenges and opportunities in computer-aided nanodrug discovery, with particular emphasis on the integrated "computation + machine learning + experimentation" strategy that can potentially accelerate the discovery of precision nanodrugs.

A waste-to-wealth conversion of plastic bottles into effective carbon-based adsorbents for removal of tetracycline antibiotic from water. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 255:119144. [PMID: 38751006 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.119144] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2024] [Revised: 05/06/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/28/2024]
Abstract
Currently, plastic waste and antibiotic wastewater are two of the most critical environmental problems, calling for urgent measures to take. A waste-to-wealth strategy for the conversion of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic bottles into value-added materials such as carbon composite is highly recommended to clean wastewater contaminated by antibiotics. Inspired by this idea, we develop a novel PET-AC-ZFO composite by incorporating PET plastic-derived KOH-activated carbon (AC) with ZnFe2O4 (ZFO) particles for adsorptive removal of tetracycline (TTC). PET-derived carbon (PET-C), KOH-activated PET-derived carbon (PET-AC), and PET-AC-ZFO were characterized using physicochemical analyses. Central composite design (CCD) was used to obtain a quadratic model by TTC concentration (K), adsorbent dosage (L), and pH (M). PET-AC-ZFO possessed micropores (d ≈ 2 nm) and exceptionally high surface area of 1110 m2 g-1. Nearly 90% TTC could be removed by PET-AC-ZFO composite. Bangham kinetic and Langmuir isotherm were two most fitted models. Theoretical maximum TTC adsorption capacity was 45.1 mg g-1. This study suggested the role of hydrogen bonds, pore-filling interactions, and π-π interactions as the main interactions of the adsorption process. Thus, a strategy for conversion of PET bottles into PET-AC-ZFO can contribute to both plastic recycling and antibiotic wastewater mitigation.

Magnetization and ZIF-67 modification of Aspergillus flavus biomass for tetracycline removal from aqueous solutions: A stable and efficient composite. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 252:118931. [PMID: 38615794 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.118931] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2024] [Revised: 03/25/2024] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/16/2024]
Abstract
In the present work, the biomass of Aspergillus flavus (AF) was modified using magnetic nanoparticles MnFe2O4 and metal-organic framework of ZIF-67, and its ability to remove tetracycline antibiotic (TCH) was investigated. With the help of physicochemical tests, AF biomass modification with ZIF-67 and MnFe2O4 magnetic nanoparticles was confirmed. Based on the BET value, AF-MnFe2O4-ZIF-67 (139.83 m2/g) has a higher surface value than AF (0.786 m2/g) and AF/MnFe2O4 (17.504 m2/g). Also, the magnetic saturation value revealed that the modified biomass can be isolated from the treated solution using a simple magnetic field. Maximum TCH elimination (99.04%) using AF-MnFe2O4-ZIF-67 was obtained at pH 7, adsorber mass of 1 g/L, adsorption time of 40 min, and TCH content of 10 mg/L. The thermodynamic study indicated that the TCH abatement using the desired composite is spontaneous and exothermic. The experimental results showed that the adsorption process is compatible with the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Freundlich model. The maximum adsorption capacity for AF, AF-MnFe2O4, and AF-MnFe2O4-ZIF-67 was quantified to be 9.75 mg/g, 25.59 mg/g, and 43.87 mg/g, respectively. The reusability of the desired adsorbers was examined in up to 8 steps. The outcomes showed that the adsorbers can be used several times in TCH elimination. The provided composite can remove TCH from hospital wastewater, so it can be suggested for use in water and wastewater treatment works.

Abstract
Antibiotics are life-saving medications for treating bacterial infections; however it has been discovered that resistance developed by bacteria against these incredible agents is the primary contributing factor to rising global mortality rates. The fundamental cause of the emergence of antibiotic resistance in bacteria is the presence of antibiotic residues in various environmental matrices. Although antibiotics are present in diluted form in environmental matrices like water, consistent exposure of bacteria to these minute levels is enough for the resistance to develop. So, identifying these tiny concentrations of numerous antibiotics in various and complicated matrices will be a crucial step in controlling their disposal in those matrices. Solid phase extraction, a popular and customizable extraction technology, was developed according to the aspirations of the researchers. It is a unique alternative technique that could be implemented either alone or in combination with other approaches at different stages because of the multitude of sorbent varieties and techniques. Initially, sorbents are utilized for extraction in their natural state. The basic sorbent has been modified over time with nanoparticles and multilayer sorbents, which have indeed helped to accomplish the desired extraction efficiencies. Among the current traditional extraction techniques such as liquid-liquid extraction, protein precipitation, and salting out techniques, solid-phase extractions (SPE) with nanosorbents are most productive because, they can be automated, selective, and can be integrated with other extraction techniques. This review aims to provide a broad overview of advancements and developments in sorbents with a specific emphasis on the applications of SPE techniques used for antibiotic detection and quantification in various matrices in the last two decades.

Abstract
In the study, Fe-MIL-100 was modified by adding Co2+ in the synthesis process; Co/Fe-MIL-100 was successfully synthesized and used to adsorb tetracycline. The addition of Co2+ increased the thermal stability of Fe-MIL-100 without changing the crystal structure. It was found that Co/Fe-MIL-100 exhibited satisfactory performance in tetracycline removal, the tetracycline removal efficiency reached almost 100% in the initial concentration range of 10-40 mg/L, and it still reached 82.38% under the condition of 60 mg/L tetracycline. Besides, the factors of tetracycline concentration, pH and inorganic anion on removal efficiency were explored. The coexistence of inorganic anion decreased the adsorption capacity of tetracycline due to the competitive adsorption. CO32- had a more obvious inhibition effect on the adsorption efficiency of tetracycline than Cl-. The fitting correlation coefficient of Langmuir model was higher and the kinetics better fitted by pseudo-second-order, respectively. As a result of its high removal efficiency and excellent recycling performance, it has great potential in application fields such as removing tetracycline from wastewater.

Abstract
In this study, a fast one-pot method was developed for the preparation of Cu/CS/Si ternary composites, which can efficiently remove antibiotic tetracycline from aqueous solutions. Our results demonstrated that the Cu and its content in the composites played a significant role in determining the physical properties and internal morphology of the Cu/CS/Si composites, which subsequently affected the efficiency of the composites for the sorptive removal of tetracycline. Among the studied composites, Cu3-CS2-Si materials had the largest sorption capacity for tetracycline (1076.7 mg/g) with a fast sorption kinetics (>99% in 30 min) under a broad working pH range (5-10). The results from the batch sorption experiments, together with spectroscopic and microscopic analyses, collectively indicated that Cu-tetracycline inner-sphere surface complexation through Cu-O bond was responsible for the tetracycline sorption on Cu3-CS2-Si. In addition, the Cu3-CS2-Si showed an excellent reusability in removing tetracycline. The desired sorption and reuse properties, coupled with the facile and cost-effective synthesis method, indicated that Cu/CS/Si composites have a promising potential for the efficient removal of tetracycline from contaminated solutions.

Abstract
Fe3O4@SiO2-NH2 core-shell magnetic nanoparticles were developed by a rapid one-step precipitation route followed by reverse microemulsion and amine functionalization. In this study, an Fe3O4@SiO2-NH2 nanoparticle was used to evaluate its adsorption efficiency for the treatment of a synthetic solution of Cd(II) ion. The structural and physicochemical properties of Fe3O4@SiO2-NH2 nanoparticles were characterized by XRD, SEM-EDAX, TEM, FTIR and TGA. From the TEM analysis, the morphology of Fe3O4@SiO2-NH2 was found as 100–300 nm. In TGA, the first weight loss was noticed between 373 and 573 K, the second was between 673 and 773 K and the final weight loss took place above 773 K. Batch experimental tests, such as pH, dosage of Fe3O4@SiO2-NH2, Cd(II) ion concentration, temperature as well as interaction time, were conducted and evaluated. Experimental study data were used for the non-linear forms exhibited by isotherms and kinetics of the sorption procedure. The equilibrium adsorption observations were adequately combined with pseudo-first-order kinetics as well as Freundlich isotherm. Monolayer maximum adsorption capacity was found to be 40.02 mg/g, recorded at pH 6 with an interaction time of 30 min, temperature of 303 K and sorbent dose of 2.0 g/L. The thermodynamic study indicated that the adsorption process was an exothermic, spontaneous reaction (−∆oo = −15.46–7.81 (kJ/mol)). The as-synthesized sorbent had excellent recyclability, and its adsorption efficiency was maintained after five cycles of reuse. The findings of the study exhibited the magnetic Fe3O4@SiO2-NH2-nanoparticle as an alternative effective adsorbent in eradicating Cd(II) ions from aqueous solution.
