J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 663:707-715.

Abstract
Many lanthanide complexes do not form gel or even exhibit characteristic luminescence of lanthanide ions, which limits their applications in many fields. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a third component that can not only promote emission but also gel the lanthanide complex system to construct new smart materials such as time-dependent information encryption and anti-counterfeiting materials. Herein, a luminescent lanthanide metallogel was successfully prepared by using the third component sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (NaCMC) to induce the gelation and luminescence of the complex (H3L/Tb3+) of 4,4',4″-((benzene-1,3,5-tricarbonyl)tris(azanediyl)) tris(2-hydroxybenzoic acid) (H3L) and Tb3+. The H3L/Tb3+ complex itself does not form gel and has no characteristic luminescence of Tb3+. Moreover, the multicolor emission of H3L/Tb3+/NaCMC gels was prepared based on Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) platforms to obtain a high-security level information encryption and anti-counterfeiting materials. These multicolor emission gels exhibit emission color tunability with time dependence due to the different energy transfer efficiencies at each pH node controlled by glucono-δ-lactone hydrolysis time. Based on the time response characteristics, the time-dependent information encryption and anti-counterfeiting materials are developed.

Abstract
Fluorescence is well-known nowadays as one of the most efficient anti-counterfeiting techniques. Zinc oxide quantum dots (ZnOQds) are exceptionally fluorescence when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light, which makes them a candidate for anti-counterfeiting printing. The resulting anti-counterfeiting papers are sustainable and resistance against organic dyes. In this work, ZnOQds were prepared via a green method and characterized under UV-visible spectroscopy, along with microscopic observations by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and crystallography by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Formation of ZnOQds nanocrystals with an average partials size of 7.3 nm was approved. Additionally, double-layers sheets were prepared at two loading concentrations of ZnOQds, namely 0.5 and 1 (wt./v) and underwent characterization using a topographical surface study via field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). Hybrid sheets were mechanically more stable compared to single-layer paper and likewise polymer film. Moreover, aging simulation approved a high stability for hybrid sheets. Particularly, the photoluminescence emission affirmed anti-aging character of hybrid paper for more than 25 years. The hybrid sheets also showed a broad range of antimicrobial activity.

Abstract
The falsification of documents, currency, pharmaceuticals, branded goods, clothing, food products, and packaging leads to severe consequences. Counterfeited products can not only pose health risks to consumers but also cause substantial economic losses that can negatively impact the global markets. Unfortunately, most anticounterfeiting strategies are easily duplicated due to rapid technological advancements. Therefore, innovative and cost-effective antiforgery techniques that can offer superior multilevel security features are continuously sought after. Due to the ever-growing global awareness of environmental pollution, renewable and eco-friendly native biopolymers are garnering wide attention in anticounterfeiting applications. This review highlights the potential use of cellulose-based eco-friendly materials to combat the counterfeiting of goods. The initial section of the review focuses on the structure, properties, and chemical modifications of cellulose as a sustainable biomaterial. Further, the topical developments reported on cellulose and nanocellulose-based materials used as fluorescent security inks, films, and papers for achieving protection against counterfeiting are presented. The studies suggest the convenient use of celluose and modified cellulose materials for promising optical antiforgery applications. Furthermore, the scope for future research developments is also discussed based on the current critical challenges in the fabrication of cellulose-based materials and their anticounterfeit applications.

Sequestration and toxicological assessment of emerging contaminants with polypyrrole modified carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC/PPY): Case of ibuprofen pharmaceutical drug. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 221:547-557. [PMID: 36089084 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.09.046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2022] [Revised: 08/11/2022] [Accepted: 09/06/2022] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Ibuprofen (IBU) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug released into water bodies causing toxic biological effects on living organisms. The current study aims to eliminate IBU from aqueous solutions by a novel carboxymethylcellulose/polypyrrole (CMC/PPY) composite with high removal efficiency. Pyrrole was polymerized to polypyrrole whose average size was about 20 nm on the CMC surface. The maximum removal percentage of IBU by CMC/PPY composite was optimized at initial concentration 10 mg/L, dosage 0.02 g, and pH 7 with adsorption capacity of 72.30 (mg/g) and removal of 83.17 %. IBU adsorption onto CMC/PPY theoretically fits into the Langmuir isotherm and Elovich-kinetic models. Fish and Phytotoxicity assessment were performed with zebrafish and seeds of Vigna mungo (VM) and Vigna radiata (VR). The toxicity study reveals that before adsorption, IBU shows high toxicity towards the zebrafish mortality (33 %), growth inhibition (58.52 % for VM, 60.84 % for VR), and germination (86.66 % for VM and 90 % for VR). As CMC/PPY adsorbs IBU, toxicity drastically decreases. Before adsorption, LC50 was 233.02 mg/L. After adsorption, the LC50 increases to 2325.07 mg/L as IBU molecules get adsorbed by CMC/PPY. These findings show the feasibility of preparing CMC/PPY composite to effectively remove pharmaceutical pollutant IBU from aqueous solutions with their toxicological assessment.

Abstract
Industrial waste acidic gases are huge hazards to the environment and human health, so a material that can detect and remove them is needed. In this paper, CM chitosan-Eu3+ fluorescence aerogel was prepared via a green method by combining the carboxymethyl chitosan biomass polymer with Eu3+ ions, the structure and properties of this aerogel were characterized by SEM, TG, and stress-strain curves. The coordination of Eu3+ ions and carboxymethyl chitosan was analyzed with XPS and the difference in luminescence intensity of aerogel prepared at different pH values was analyzed. The monitoring of the aerogels revealed different responses to different acidic gases, and the fluorescence intensity of the aerogel showed a linear decrease with the adsorbed hydrogen chloride gas (HCl), while acetic acid gas (HAc) enhanced fluorescence. The adsorption system of the CM chitosan-Eu3+ aerogel was simulated using pseudo-second-order kinetics, which showed that the maximum adsorption capacity of HCl is 9.16 mmol/g. The different response mechanisms of HCl and HAc gas were analyzed with FT-IR, fluorescence lifetime imaging and Judd-Ofelt theory. This fluorescence aerogel was found to have potential applications in ensuring industrial production safety.

Abstract
In the present investigation, novel photoluminescent and transparent biocomposite films based on chitosan reinforced with styrylbenzothiazolium-g-cellulose nanocrystal for anti-counterfeiting applications were successfully prepared by casting solvent. Three novel styrylbenzothiazolium derivatives were synthesized by Knoevenagel condensation and characterized by FTIR, 1H, 13C NMR and photoluminescence analysis. These photochromic compounds have been used to functionalize cellulose nanocrystal and the resulting fluorescent photonic materials were characterized by FTIR, 13C-CP/MAS NMR as well as photoluminescent analysis to confirm the successful grafting. It can be concluded that the addition of 5 wt% of fluorescent modified CNC to chitosan matrix increase the photoluminescent properties as well as improved the mechanical properties of the Cs/CNC-dye biocomposite films. These photoluminescent biocomposite film hold promising applicative value in anti-counterfeiting material in large-scale.

Spray-drying encapsulation of microwave-assisted extracted polyphenols from Moringa oleifera: Influence of tragacanth, locust bean, and carboxymethyl-cellulose formulations. Food Res Int 2021; 144:110291. [PMID: 34053517 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2021.110291] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2020] [Revised: 02/26/2021] [Accepted: 02/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
In this work, polyphenols from Moringa oleifera (Mor) leaves were extracted by microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) and encapsulated by spray-drying (SD). Particularly, we explored the influence of tragacanth gum (TG), locust bean gum (LBG), and carboxymethyl-cellulose (CMC) as wall-materials on the physicochemical behavior of encapsulated Mor. Single or combined wall-material treatments (100:00 and 50:50 ratios, and total solid content 1%) were tested. The results showed the wall-material had a significant effect on the process yield (55.7-68.3%), encapsulation efficiency (24.28-35.74%), color (yellow or pale-yellow), total phenolic content (25.17-27.49 mg GAE g-1 of particles), total flavonoid content (23.20-26.87 mg QE g-1 of particles), antioxidant activity (DPPH• = 5.96-6.95 mg GAE g-1; ABTS•+ = 5.61-6.18 mg TE g-1 of particles), and particle size distribution (D50 = 112-1946 nm) of the encapsulated Mor. On the other hand, SEM analysis showed smooth and spherical particles, while TGA and DSC analyses confirmed the encapsulation of bioactive compounds based on the changes in thermal peaks. Finally, XRD analysis showed that the particles have an amorphous behavior. The encapsulated Mor produced with individual TG or CMC demonstrated better properties than those obtained from mixed gums. Thus, TG or CMC might be feasible wall materials for manufacturing encapsulated Mor that conserve the phenolic content and antioxidant activity.
