Tho LH, Khuyen BX, Mai NXD, Tran NHT. Potential of a deep eutectic solvent in silver nanoparticle fabrication for antibiotic residue detection. BEILSTEIN JOURNAL OF NANOTECHNOLOGY 2024; 15:426-434. [PMID: 38655542 PMCID: PMC11035980 DOI: 10.3762/bjnano.15.38] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 03/19/2024] [Indexed: 04/26/2024]
Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have recently emerged as an alternative solvent for nanoparticle synthesis. There have been numerous advancements in the fabrication of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs), but the potential of DESs in Ag NP synthesis was neither considered nor studied carefully. In this study, we present a novel strategy to fabricate Ag NPs in a DES (Ag NPs-DES). The DES composed of ᴅ-glucose, urea, and glycerol does not contain any anions to precipitate with Ag+ cations. Our Ag NPs-DES sample is used in a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensor. The two analytes for SERS quantitation are nitrofurantoin (NFT) and sulfadiazine (SDZ) whose residues can be traced down to 10-8 M. The highest enhancement factors (EFs) are competitive at 6.29 × 107 and 1.69 × 107 for NFT and SDZ, respectively. Besides, the linearity coefficients are extremely close to 1 in the range of 10-8 to 10-3 M of concentration, and the SERS substrate shows remarkable uniformity along with great selectivity. This powerful SERS performance indicates that DESs have tremendous potential in the synthesis of nanomaterials for biosensor substrate construction.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023:125221. [PMID: 37295693 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.125221] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2023] [Revised: 05/25/2023] [Accepted: 06/02/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
The present study involves the synthesis of green functional material based on the silver nanoparticle (Ag NPs) doped cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) immobilized agar gum (AA) biopolymer using chemical coprecipitation method. The stabilization of Ag NPs in cellulose matrix and functionalization of the synthesized material through agar gum was analyzed using various spectroscopic techniques such as Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), Scanning electron microscope (SEM), Energy X-Ray diffraction (EDX), Photoelectron X-ray (XPS), Transmission electron microscope (TEM), Selected area energy diffraction (SAED) and ultraviolet visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy. The XRD results suggested that the synthesized AA-CNC@Ag BNC material is composed of 47 % crystalline and 53 % amorphous nature having distorted hexagonal structure due to capping of Ag NPs by amorphous biopolymer matrix. The Debye-Scherer crystallite sized was calculated as 18 nm which is found in close agreement with TEM analysis (19 nm). The SAED yellow fringes simulates the miller indices values with XRD patterns and supported the surface functionalization of Ag NPs by biopolymer blend of AA-CNC. The XPS data supported the presence of Ag0 as indexed by Ag3d orbital corresponding to Ag3d3/2 at 372.6 eV and Ag3d5/2 at 366.6 eV. The surface morphological results revealed a flaky surface of the resultant material having well distributed Ag NPs in the matrix. The EDX and atomic concentration results given by XPS supported the presence if C, O and Ag in the bionanocomposite material. The UV-Vis results suggested that the material is both UV and visible light active having multiple SPR effects with anisotropy. The material was explored as a photocatalyst for remediation of wastewater contaminated by malachite green (MG) using advance oxidation process (AOP). Photocatalytic experiments were performed in order to optimize various reaction parameters such as irradiation time, pH, catalyst dose and MG concentration. The obtained results showed that almost 98.85 % of MG was degraded by using 20 mg of catalyst at pH 9 for 60 min of irradiation. The trapping experiments revealed that •O2- radicals played primary role in MG degradation. This study will provide new possible strategies for the remediation of wastewater contaminated by MG.

One-Step Synthesis of Nitrogen-Doped Porous Biochar Based on N-Doping Co-Activation Method and Its Application in Water Pollutants Control. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232314618. [PMID: 36498946 PMCID: PMC9739037 DOI: 10.3390/ijms232314618] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2022] [Revised: 11/11/2022] [Accepted: 11/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
In this work, birch bark (BB) was used for the first time to prepare porous biochars via different one-step methods including direct activation (BBB) and N-doping co-activation (N-BBB). The specific surface area and total pore volume of BBB and N-BBB were 2502.3 and 2292.7 m2/g, and 1.1389 and 1.0356 cm3/g, respectively. When removing synthetic methyl orange (MO) dye and heavy metal Cr6+, both BBB and N-BBB showed excellent treatment ability. The maximum adsorption capacities of BBB and N-BBB were 836.9 and 858.3 mg/g for MO, and 141.1 and 169.1 mg/g for Cr6+, respectively, which were higher than most previously reported biochar adsorbents. The probable adsorption mechanisms, including pore filling, π-π interaction, H-bond interaction, and electrostatic attraction, supported the biochars' demonstrated high performance. In addition, after five recycles, the removal rates remained above 80%, which showed the high stability of the biochars. This work verified the feasibility of the one-step N-doping co-activation method to prepare high-performance biochars, and two kinds of biochars with excellent performance (BBB and N-BBB) were prepared. More importantly, this method provides new directions and ideas for the development and utilization of other biomasses.

Abstract
We report a new 3D nanocomposite cryogel combines the advantages of cationic starch (Cs), nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) and silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs). Cs was the main component of the cryogel while NFC was used as a filling agent to enhance the mechanical properties of the produced cryogel. Both Cs and NFC endow the cryogel with adsorption properties while Ag NPs enhances its antibacterial properties. Ag NPs was green synthesized with the aid of microwave radiation using NFC as reducing and stabilizing agent. The prepared Ag particles were free of impurities with sizes <10 nm and good stability in solution. Two different concentrations of the prepared Ag NPs were added to a mixture of Cs and NFC and subjected to freeze drying to get porous cryogel (3D microstructure). The Ag NPs free cryogel has highly porosity smooth surface with large surface area. Adding Ag NPs decreased these features and increased the 3D roughness. Optimum adsorption of reactive blue 49 was observed after 30 min of contact with 1.5 g/L of the cryogel at pH 1. The adsorption kinetics and isotherm were best described by the pseudo-first-order and Freundlich equations, respectively. All prepared cryogels have notable antibacterial properties that were significantly improved by adding Ag NPs. Overall, the new 3D composite cryogel can efficiently remove dyes and bacteria from wastewater.

Abstract
Among the conventional methods in synthesizing nanoparticles, the methods that use biological resources, as reducing and stabilizing agents, can be considered eco-friendly methods. In this study, the leaf tissue of green tea (Camellia sinensis L.) and lavender (Lavandula anguistifolia) were utilized by the solid-state method as a one-step and low-cost method for the biosynthesis of copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs). The results of the X-ray Diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron spectroscopy (FESEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed that lavender is more productive in the synthesis of pure and uniform CuO NPs (50 nm). Comparing biogenic synthesized CuO NPs with chemically synthesized CuO NPs in terms of induction of phytotoxicity, exposed in treatments with concentrations of 40, 400 and 4000 μg ml−1, green CuO NPs had less inhibitory effects on the seed germination factors (i.e., germination percentage, germination rate, shoot and root length, etc.) of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.), and tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) seeds. However, both green/chemically synthesized CuO NPs at their lowest concentrations (4 μg ml−1), had an effective role in root and shoot expansion of lettuce and tomato seedlings. Among the conventional methods in synthesizing nanoparticles, the methods that use biological resources, as reducing and stabilizing agents, can be considered eco-friendly methods.![]()
