Synthesis of Fe3O4@chitosan@ZIF-8 towards removal of malachite green from aqueous solution: Theoretical and experimental studies

Bio-inspired magnetic chitosan/Iron oxide macromolecules for multiple anionic dyes adsorption from aqueous media

Organic anionic dyes are major water pollutants due to their low degradability caused by complex aromatic structures. Not only do they exert toxic, mutagenic, teratogenic, tumorigenic, and genotoxic effects, but they also decrease fertility and cause irritation to the skin and respiratory system in humans. This long-term toxicity has detrimental effects on aquatic organisms and their surroundings, resulting in an imbalanced ecosystem. In this study, a Cs@Fe3O4 magnetic biosorbent was synthesised to uptake three anionic dyes and characterised for FTIR, BET/BJH, XRD, TGA, VSM, and FESEM analyses. The biosorbent average surface area was confirmed to be 52.6524 m2/g, with average pore sizes of 7.3606 nm and 6.9823 nm for adsorption-desorption processes, respectively. Batch adsorption studies pH values, contact times, temperature, initial dye concentrations, and adsorbent dosages were examined. Several isotherm and kinetic models were studied to determine the adsorption mechanism. The adsorption data of these dyes at equilibrium was observed to match Langmuir's isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic models. The thermodynamic study revealed that the adsorption process for these dyes was an exothermic reaction. Maximum adsorption capacities for congo red, methyl orange, and metanil yellow were 117.77 mg/g, 137.77 mg/g, and 155.57 mg/g, respectively. The reusability of recovered Cs@Fe3O4 after dye adsorption was evaluated up to five continuous adsorption-desorption cycles for its possible industrial applications.

Characterization and Degradation of Triphenylmethane Dyes and Their Leuco-Derivatives by Heterologously Expressed Laccase From Coprinus cinerea

Laccase is a copper-containing polyphenol oxidase that can oxidize phenolic and non-phenolic organic substrates. In the past decades, laccases had received considerable attention because of the ability to degrade various organic substances. Based on the codon preference of the Pichia pastoris expression system, this study optimized the gene structure of the laccase gene Lcc1 from Coprius cinerea through synthetic biology methods. A new gene Lcc1I was synthesized and heterologously expressed in P. pastoris. After 3 days of cultivation in a shake flask at 30°C, the transformants produced at a yield of 890 mg L-1protein. The highest production level of the recombinant laccase was 2760 U L-1. The molecular mass of the recombinant laccase was estimated at 60 kDa. The enzyme showed highest activity at pH 3.4 and 45°C. It possessed better stability at higher pH and lower temperature condition. Using 2,2'-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline)-6-sulphonate (ABTS) as the substrate, the Km and Vmax values were 0.136 mM and 9778 μM min-1 mg-1, respectively. The recombinant laccase could directly oxidize some triphenylmethane dyes like leuco-crystal violet (LCV) and leuco-malachite green (LMG). With the help of ABTS mediator, it could oxidize and degrade 77.7% crystal violet (CV) and 79.2% malachite green (MG) within 1 h. Our results indicate that optimization of the laccase gene achieves good expression results in the host system. The dye degradation model constructed in this study may also be applied to the degradation of other organic pollutants and toxic substances, providing new solutions for environmental remediation against the increasingly severe environmental pollution.

Enhancing Tranexamic Acid Penetration through AQP-3 Protein Triggering via ZIF-8 Encapsulation for Melasma and Rosacea Therapy

The systemic use of tranexamic acid (TA) as an oral drug can bring adverse reactions, while intradermal injection leads to pain and a risk of infection. Moreover, it is difficult for highly hydrophilic TA to penetrate the skin barrier that contains lots of hydrophobic lipid compounds, which poses enormous restrictions on its topical application. Current transdermal TA delivery strategies are suffering from low drug load rates, plus their synthesis complexity, time-consumption, etc. adding to the difficulty of TA topical application in clinical therapeutics. To increase the penetration of TA, a novel approach using TA-loaded ZIF-8 (TA@ZIF-8) is developed. The encapsulation efficiency of TA@ZIF-8 reaches ≈25% through physical adsorption and chemical bonding of TA indicates by theoretical simulation and the improved TA penetration is elevated through activating the aquaporin-3 (AQP-3) protein. Additionally, in vivo and in vitro experiments demonstrate the preponderance of TA@ZIF-8 for penetration ability and the advantages in intracellular uptake, minor cytotoxicity, and inhibition of melanogenesis and inflammatory factors. Moreover, clinical trials demonstrate the safety and efficacy of TA@ZIF-8 in the treatment of melasma and rosacea. This work presents a potential topical application of TA, free from the safety concerns associated with systemic drug administration.

rGO/ZIF-8 Aerogel for Effective Removal of Malachite Green from Wastewater

In this study, dopamine-modified graphene aerogel (DGA) is synthesized through a one-step hydrothermal method using graphene oxide as the precursor and dopamine as the reducing agent. Subsequently, in situ immersion synthesis is conducted to obtain ZIF-8 loaded on a dopamine-modified graphene aerogel skeleton (ZDGA), featuring a regular honeycomb interconnected mesoporosity and a high specific surface area of 532.8 m2/g. The synthesized ZDGA exhibited exceptional adsorption performance for the cationic dye malachite green. At room temperature, ZDGA achieved an impressive equilibrium adsorption capacity of 6578.34 mg/g. The adsorption process followed pseudo-secondary kinetics and adhered to the Langmuir model, indicating chemically dominated adsorption on a monomolecular layer. Intraparticle diffusion was the primary rate determinant, with π-π stacking, electrostatic adsorption, hydrogen bonding, and Lewis acid-base interactions serving as the key driving forces. It has an ideal specific surface area and good cycling performance, which highlights its potential application in dye wastewater treatment.

Multifunctional Eu3+-MOF for simultaneous quantification of malachite green and leuco-malachite green and efficient adsorption of malachite green

Multi-target detection combined with in-situ removal of contaminants is a challenging issue difficult to overcome. Herein, a dual-emissive Eu3+-metal organic framework (Eu3+-MOF) was constructed by pre-functionalization with a blue-emissive ligand and post-functionalization with red-emissive Eu3+ ions using a UiO-66 precursor. The fluorescence of the synthesized Eu3+-MOF is highly selective and sensitive toward malachite green (MG) and its metabolite leuco-malachite green (LMG), which are environmentally persistent and highly toxic to humans. The limit of detection of MG and LMG are 34.20 and 1.98 nM, respectively. Interestingly, the fluorescence of this Eu3+-MOF showed ratiometric but different responsive modes toward MG and LMG, which enabled the simultaneous quantification of MG and LMG. Furthermore, a paper-based sensor combined with the smartphone was fabricated, which facilitated not only the dual-channel detection of MG, but also its portable, visual, rapid, and intelligent determination. Furthermore, the high surface area of MOFs, together with the coordinate bonding interaction, π-π stacking, and electrostatic interaction sites, endows Eu3+-MOF with the efficient ability toward MG removal. This multifunctional Eu3+-MOF can be successfully used for trace detection, simultaneous determination of MG and LMG, as well as efficient removal of MG. Thus, it exhibits bright prospects for widespread applications in the field of food and environmental analysis.

Magnetic hydrochar grafted-chitosan for enhanced efficient adsorption of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions: Modeling, adsorption behavior, and mechanism analysis

Water pollution by organic dyes is one of the most serious environmental problems worldwide. Malachite green (MG) is considered as one the serious organic dyes which is discharged in wastewater by leather and textile manufacturing plants. MG dye can cause severe hazards to the environment and human health. Therefore, the removal of MG dye from wastewater is very important and essential. This study aims to synthesize a new magnetic hydrochar grafted to chitosan (MWSHC@CS) for the removal of MG dye from the aqueous solutions. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area, and Zeta potential analysis were used to characterize the synthesized MWSHC@CS. Batch experiments were conducted to optimize MG dye adsorption conditions, including adsorbent mass, pH, temperature, initial concentration, and contact time. The results revealed that MWSHC@CS had an excellent removal efficiency (96.47 %) for MG dye at the optimum condition (at m: 20 mg, pH: 7.5, t: 420 min, and T: 298 K). Adsorption isotherms outcomes revealed the MG adsorption data were best fit by the Langmuir model with a maximum adsorption capacity (420.02 mg/g). Adsorption kinetics outcomes exhibited that the adsorption process of MG dye fitted well to the Elovich model. The thermodynamic results revealed that the adsorption process was physical, exothermic, and spontaneous. The adsorption mechanisms of MG onto MWSHC@CS were hydrogen bonding, electrostatic interaction, and π-π interactions. Furthermore, MWSHC@CS showed excellent reusability for the removal of MG over five cycles of adsorption-desorption (83.76 %). In conclusion, the study provides a new, low-cost, and effective magnetic nanocomposite based on chitosan as a promising adsorbent for the high-performance removal of MG dye from aqueous solutions.

Efficient removal of cationic dye using ZIF-8 based sodium alginate composite beads: Performance evaluation in batch and column systems

The environmental and health risks associated with dye contamination in water sources are alarming. Recently, researchers have been focusing on developing an innovative and susceptible solution using composite beads that effectively combat this issue. In this paper, beads were synthesized using a sodium alginate (SA) and zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) through a simple dipping process. Several characterization tests were performed including XRD, FTIR, BET, TGA, and SEM-EDX. The SEM images confirmed that SA effectively coated the cubical structure of the ZIF-8, ensuring optimal performance. The efficiency of the resulting SA@ZIF-8 composite beads was tested on both synthetic malachite green dye and real industrial wastewater samples using batch and fixed bed column reactors. The findings revealed that maximum adsorption of 95.5% was achieved at pH 6 in 120 min of reaction time. FTIR and SEM analysis also confirmed the adsorption of MG dye onto the beads. The Freundlich isotherm model (R2 > 0.99) has a better fit than the Langmuir (R2 > 0.96) for describing the adsorption process. The PSO model predicted the kinetics of the system, whereas the intraparticle diffusion study supported the system's mechanistic analysis. Furthermore, the study also investigated the efficacy of the beads in treating real wastewater effluent samples collected from the dye industry. Overall, using sodium alginate-coated ZIF-8 beads was found to have many advantages over powdered ZIF-8, including higher selectivity, stability, reusability, and practicality, making them a promising alternative for adsorption applications. Therefore, these composite beads have the potential for the removal of the dye from wastewater, which could be widely applied in various industries.

Bioremediation of malachite green dye using sodium alginate, Sargassum latifolium extract, and their silver nanoparticles

INTRODUCTION

The textile, paper, rubber, plastic, leather, cosmetics, pharmaceutical, and food sectors extensively use malachite green (MG). In spite of this, it has mutagenic, carcinogenic, teratogenic, and, in some circumstances causes chronic respiratory disease.

OBJECTIVES

In this work, we used sodium alginate, Sargassum latifolium aqueous extract, and their silver nanoparticles to test their potential as inexpensive adsorbent agents to remove malachite green dye from aqueous solutions.

METHODS

The removal rate of MG was determined using a series of bioadsorption experiments. Besides, the effect of different factors on bioadsorption, such as pH, adsorbent dose, contact time (min), and different concentrations of MG dye was investigated.

RESULTS

The removal efficiency of MG dye by alginate nanoparticles, alginate, Sargassum latifolium aqueous extract, and S. latifolium aqueous extract nanoparticles was 91, 82, 84, and 68 respectively. The optimal conditions for bioadsorption of malachite green dye were pH 7, a contact time of 180 min, and an adsorbent dose of 0.02 g. The adsorption isotherm was fitted to Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm. Also, UV and FT-IR before and after the bioadsorption of MG were performed to confirm the bioadsorption process.

CONCLUSION

Our results indicated that alginate nanoparticles were the most effective bioadsorbent agent.

Composite beads from chitosan and zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 for the adsorption and photocatalytic degradation of reactive red 141

This study describes the fabrication of composite beads comprising chitosan and zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) as a natural biodegradable dye adsorbent and support for ZnO photocatalyst. Chitosan beads were cross-linked with trisodium citrate dihydrate to enhance the adsorption capacity for the reactive red 141 dye (RR141). The ability was further improved by adding ZIF-8. The optimum loading was 2.5%, and the adsorption equilibrium was reached within 2 h. The maximum adsorption capacity of the composite beads was 6.51 mg g-1 at pH 4 when an initial concentration of 1000 mg L-1 was used. The pseudo-second-order kinetics model and the Langmuir isotherm model best described the adsorption process. The composite beads could also adsorb dyes like reactive black, Congo red, direct yellow, reactive orange, rhodamine B, crystal violet, and methylene blue (MB). Thermal stability was significantly improved after coating the surface of the 2.5% ZIF beads with a ZnO photocatalyst. After UV irradiation for 5 h, the photocatalytic beads containing 2.59 weight percent of ZnO could decolorize 99% of MB and 90% of RR141 dyes with a degradation rate of 0.6032 h-1 and 0.3198 h-1, respectively. Furthermore, the photocatalytic beads remained effective for at least ten consecutive cycles.

Fabrication of nano-biocomposite for the removal of Eriochrome Black T and malachite green from aqueous solution: isotherm and kinetic studies

The increasing generation of toxic dye wastewater from various enterprises continues to be a serious public health issue and happens to be of environmental concern, posing a significant challenge to existing conventional water treatment facilities. Malachite green (MG) and Eriochrome Black T (EBT) are extremely hazardous and carcinogenic substances; hence it is crucial to remove them from water bodies. A well-known cleaner, more economical, and environmentally friendly treatment method is adsorption. The kind of adsorbent material employed determines how well the treatment procedure works. A physiologically compatible nanocomposite adsorbent (HAP@CT@MNP) was fabricated from laboratory synthesized hydroxyapatite (HAP) and magnetite (MNP) for its application in the wastewater remediation process. The ability of the fabricated nanocomposite to remove the harmful dyes EBT and MG from a simulated wastewater was evaluated. The impact of operational parameters including pH, adsorbate concentration, adsorbent dose, contact time, and temperature was examined to gauge the maximum adsorption capacity of the developed nanocomposite. The optimum pH for the eradication of EBT and MG were found to be 3 and 7.4, respectively. The maximum capacity evaluated was 222 mg/g and 500 mg/g at room temperature and at contact time of 50 and 40 min respectively. The binding of either EBT or MG followed the monolayer Langmuir model and kinetic studies revealed the suitability of pseudo-second-order model. Studies using spectroscopy and isotherm modeling showed that the main mechanism controlling the adsorption of EBT and MG onto HAP@CT@MNP is physisorption. The efficacy of the adsorbent to be reused with 8% loss in its efficiency reveals the economic viability of HAP@CT@MNP. The current work showed that a biocompatible nanocomposite could be successfully fabricated and used as an enhanced adsorbent for the quick and effective removal of the toxic dyes EBT and MG from wastewater.

ZIF-8 metal organic framework materials as a superb platform for the removal and photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants: a review

Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are attracting significant attention for applications including adsorption, chemical sensing, gas separation, photocatalysis, electrocatalysis and catalysis. In particular, zeolitic imidazolate framework 8 (ZIF-8), which is composed of zinc ions and imidazolate ligands, have been applied in different areas of catalysis due to its outstanding structural and textural properties. It possesses a highly porous structure and chemical and thermal stability under varying reaction conditions. When used alone in the reaction medium, the ZIF-8 particles tend to agglomerate, which inhibits their removal efficiency and selectivity. This results in their mediocre reusability and separation from aqueous conditions. Thus, to overcome these drawbacks, several well-designed ZIF-8 structures have emerged by forming composites and heterostructures and doping. This review focuses on the recent advances on the use of ZIF-8 structures (doping, composites, heterostructures, etc.) in the removal and photodegradation of persistent organic pollutants. We focus on the adsorption and photocatalysis of three main organic pollutants (methylene blue, rhodamine B, and malachite green). Finally, the key challenges, prospects and future directions are outlined to give insights into game-changing breakthroughs in this area.

Combining biological and chemical methods to disassemble of cellulose from corn straw for the preparation of porous carbons with enhanced adsorption performance

In this study, we used a combination of chemical and biological pretreatment methods to extract cellulose from corn straw with a relative content of 92.40%. The adsorption performance and mechanism of the prepared porous carbon were investigated using synthetic dye malachite green (MG) and antibiotic tetracycline hydrochloride (TC) as adsorption models. The kinetic studies suggested that the adsorption followed the pseudo-second-order model and Bangham model. The Freundlich isotherm model fitted the adsorption data best for both MG and TC. The thermodynamic studies showed that the adsorption of MG and TC by adsorbents were spontaneous and endothermic in nature. In addition, the adsorption performance was maintained at 50% of the original value after five cycles. More importantly, this method not only improved the adsorption performance of prepared porous carbon materials but also provides a reference for the application of other lignocellulosic materials for cellulose extraction.

Aluminum sheet induced flower-like carbon nitride anchored with silver nanowires for highly efficient SERS detection of trace malachite green

The sensitive detection of malachite green (MG) in aquaculture wastewater is necessary for its residual poses a great threat to the living systems. Herein, the flower-like C₃N₄ (f-C₃N₄) nanostructure induced by Al sheet in the hydrothermal process is constructed. Subsequently, Ag nanowires (AgNWs) supported on Al/f-C₃N₄ and the strong interaction between AgNWs and Al/f-C₃N₄ are confirmed by XPS, Raman spectroscopy, UV-vis diffuse reflectance and fluorescence spectroscopy. Importantly, the portable Al/f-C₃N₄/AgNWs substrate shows the outstanding SERS response for MG, which is attributed to enhanced electromagnetic effect of AgNWs on large amount of corrugated and creviced regions in the flower-like Al/f-C₃N₄ and the charge transfer among the components. Also, the prepared Al/f-C₃N₄ nanostructure provides large specific surface area and abundant "N" active sites for AgNWs, and the high enrichment ability of Al/f-C₃N₄ towards MG molecules by the strong π-π stacking interaction. The detection limit of Al/f-C₃N₄/AgNWs for MG is as low as 8.38 × 10^-12 mol L^-1. The substrate can be reproduced and reused for at least 7 cycles, and the activity can still be kept after laid up for 49 days. Importantly, it unfolds a good sensitivity and selectivity for MG in actual water sample. Results indicate that the Al/f-C₃N₄/AgNWs substrate has a promising potential in practical application for trace detection of MG.

Selection of a pH- and temperature-stable laccase from Ganoderma australe and its application for bioremediation of textile dyes

By virtue of screening, purification, and properties characterization, this study captures a new pH- and temperature-stable laccase, designated Galacc-F, from Ganoderma australe for dye bioremediating applications. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity by salt precipitation, ionic exchange, and size exclusion chromatography with a final specific activity of 22.214 U mg^-1, yielding a purification fold of 23.989 and recovery of 38.44%. Its molecular weight was estimated to be 48.0 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, zymography, Sephadex G-100 column, and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry, which confirmed its monomeric nature. Galacc-F exhibited high levels of activity and stability over wide ranges of pH (5.0-8.0) and temperature (10-60 °C), which are highly valuable properties in industrial processes. Broad substrate specificity was observed, wherein a better affinity was found for 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) with a low value of K_m (164.137 μM) and higher k_cat/K_m ratio (1.663 s^-1 μM^-1). Activity was stimulated by Cu²⁺ and β-mercaptoethanol but inhibited by ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, diethylpyrocarbonate, iodoacetic acid, phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, and Hg²⁺, indicating that Galacc-F is a metalloprotease containing a typical histidine-cysteine-serine catalytic triad. It had high tolerance to surfactants, oxidants, and salts. Additionally, a fabricated protocol for native Galacc-F immobilization onto Fe₃O₄@Chitosan composite nanoparticles using glutaraldehyde as a crosslinker was developed. Most importantly, the enzyme was determined to be ideal for use in efficient treatment of dye effluents as compared with the laccases requiring redox mediators.

Polydopamine-coated UiO-66 nanoparticles loaded with perfluorotributylamine/tirapazamine for hypoxia-activated osteosarcoma therapy

Background

Hypoxia is a characteristic of solid tumors that can lead to tumor angiogenesis and early metastasis, and addressing hypoxia presents tremendous challenges. In this work, a nanomedicine based on oxygen-absorbing perfluorotributylamine (PFA) and the bioreductive prodrug tirapazamine (TPZ) was prepared by using a polydopamine (PDA)-coated UiO-66 metal organic framework (MOF) as the drug carrier.

Results

The results showed that TPZ/PFA@UiO-66@PDA nanoparticles significantly enhanced hypoxia, induced cell apoptosis in vitro through the oxygen-dependent HIF-1α pathway and decreased oxygen levels in vivo after intratumoral injection. In addition, our study demonstrated that TPZ/PFA@UiO-66@PDA nanoparticles can accumulate in the tumor region after tail vein injection and effectively inhibit tumor growth when combined with photothermal therapy (PTT). TPZ/PFA@UiO-66@PDA nanoparticles increased HIF-1α expression while did not promote the expression of CD31 in vivo during the experiment.

Conclusions

By using TPZ and PFA and the enhanced permeability and retention effect of nanoparticles, TPZ/PFA@UiO-66@PDA can target tumor tissues, enhance hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment, and activate TPZ. Combined with PTT, the growth of osteosarcoma xenografts can be effectively inhibited.

In situ growth zeolite imidazole framework materials on chitosan for greatly enhanced antibacterial effect

Zeolite imidazole framework materials (ZIFs) are a new type of antibacterial material with high chemical and thermal stability, and good antibacterial effect. However, powder ZIFs materials have the disadvantages of difficult separation and easy aggregation, which limit their application. In this work, ZIFs and chitosan (CS) were compounded by in-situ growth method to prepare a new antibacterial agent. The synergism of CS and ZIFs can effectively promote antibacterial effect compared with CS and pristine ZIFs, and CS/ZIF-67(1:6) has the best antibacterial activity, and its inhibitory rate (in 15 h) of E. coli is 96.75%, and the inhibitory rate of S. aureus reaches as high as 100%. This composites can effectively cause bacterial cell membrane rupture and leakage of internal nucleic acid and protein, leads to achieve antibacterial effect, and also exhibit excellent long-term (at least 5 days) antibacterial properties, the leaching of cobalt is below than 0.5 mg·L^-1, and this composites are with excellent bio-compatibility.

Selective adsorption of malachite green (MG) and fuchsin acid (FA) by ZIF-67 hybridized polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes

MOF/polymer hybrid membranes integrate the surface activity of MOFs and the advantages of PVDF membranes, and can be used as adsorption membranes in the efficient removal of target organics. In this work, a new hybrid membrane of ZIF-67/PVDF with varying ZIF-67 dosages has been fabricated through a facile mechanical blending followed by a lyotropic phase transition. Methods including field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), FT-IR analyses and surface hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity measurements are applied to characterize the structure, physicochemical properties and membrane performances. Two synthetic triarylmethane dyes, cationic malachite green (MG) and anionic fuchsin acid (FA), are chosen as the main adsorption targets to evaluate the adsorption capacities of the resulting ZIF-67/PVDF hybrid membranes. Interestingly, all of the ZIF-67/PVDF hybrid membranes exhibit distinctly favorable efficiencies and selectivities toward MG and FA compared to pristine PVDF, which proves the positive roles of ZIF-67 in the adsorption ability of the hybrid membranes. The adsorption conditions are optimized and the adsorption kinetics and thermodynamics are analysed to study the adsorption mechanism. The reusability and the structural stability of the hybrid membranes undergoing cyclic adsorption processes are also discussed. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that good adsorption capacities for MG and FA for these MOF/PVDF membranes have been reported. This work highlights the prospective applications of MOF/PVDF hybrid membranes in the rapid and effective removal of target organics in the treatment of waste water.
