Abstract
In this paper, a kind of magnetic ferric oxide/polyvinyl alcohol/calcium alginate/UiO-67 (Fe3O4/PVA/CA/UiO-67) nanospheres with homogeneous surface interconnecting structures was prepared by using macromolecular polymer polyvinyl alcohol and sodium alginate as carriers and zirconium organic skeleton as nanocrystals. The properties of magnetic nanospheres were studied by SEM, FT-IR, TGA, XRD, BET, VSM and Zeta potential. The impression of diverse temperatures, MB concentrations, interaction time, pH, and magnetic aerogel sphere dose on MB removal was studied. The optimum adsorption temperature and pH of magnetic nanospheres for MB were 298 K, and 10, respectively. Langmuir simulated that the maximum removal of MB by magnetic nanospheres at room temperature (298 K) was 1371.8 mg/g. The removal of MB by magnetic nanospheres complied with the pseudo-first-order kinetic model. The isotherm simulation can infer that the Langmuir model was more comply with MB adsorption on magnetic aerogel spheres. Thermodynamic studies have confirmed that the removal of MB by magnetic nanospheres was exothermic and spontaneous. The interaction mechanism of MB on magnetic nanospheres can be deduced by FT-IR and BET, including hydrogen bond, π-π bond, electrostatic interaction, and mesoporous pore flow. The removal rate of nanospheres for MB still reached 70.06 % after six cycles.

Zinc nanoparticles encapsulated in porous biopolymer beads for reduction of water pollutants and antimicrobial activity. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 248:125832.

Abstract
This work focuses on the preparation of composite beads from alginate crosslinked with copper at several loading percent and also loaded with ZnNPs. Th obtained samples were applied as catalysts for the reduction of the organic polluants 4-NP, MB, OG, MO, and CR in simple and binary systems. XRD results and TEM images confirmed the presence of ZnNPs in the polymer matrix. XRF and TGA analysis showed that the percentage of the cross-linking agent significantly influences the content of ZnNPs as well as the thermal stability of the resulting material. The catalytic activity of the composite beads showed that the Cu(4 %)-ALG(ZnNPs) sample was the best catalyst for all pollutants. In the simple system, the recorded rate constants for MB, MO, 4-NP, OG, and CR were 0.0133 s-1, 0.0076 s-1, 0.005 s-1, 0.0042 s-1, 0.0036 s-1, respectively. The catalyst was more selective towards the cationic MB dye for binary systems. For antibacterial and antifungal applications, the different materials containing ZnNPs and their counterparts containing Zn2+ were found to be active across all bacterial strains (Gram positive and Gram negative) as well as fungi, and the Zn2+-containing composites in particular performed better across all bacteria and fungi.

Abstract
Chitosan based monodisperse poly[chitosan-N-isopropylmethacrylamide-acrylic acid] [P(CNA)] microgels were produced via precipitation polymerization. Resulting crosslinked P(CNA) micro particles were used as micro-reactors to prepare silver nanoparticles within the polymeric network by chemical reduction of Ag+ ions with sodium borohydride. Various techniques including transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy were used to analyze P(CNA) microgels and Ag-P(CNA) hybrid microgels. Catalytic potential of Ag-P(CNA) hybrid system towards individual and simultaneous reduction of various nitroarenes like p-nitrophenol (pNP), o-nitrophenol (oNP), p-nitroaniline (pNA) and o-nitroaniline (oNA) into corresponding aminoarenes using sodium borohydride as a reductant in aqueous medium was evaluated. The catalytic activity of Ag-P(CNA) system towards both the individual and simultaneous reduction of nitroarenes was examined at various concentrations of catalyst. The values of pseudo first order rate constant (k1) for reduction of individual nitroarene and multiple nitroarenes were determined for comparison. The Ag-P(CNA) hybrid microgel system was found to be stable, economical and efficient catalyst for rapid individual and simultaneous reduction of nitroarenes.

Fabrication and characterization of Persian gum-based hydrogel loaded with gentamicin-loaded natural zeolite: An in vitro and in silico study. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 235:123766. [PMID: 36841390 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.123766] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/01/2023] [Revised: 01/31/2023] [Accepted: 02/15/2023] [Indexed: 02/27/2023]
Abstract
The main purpose of this study is to synthesize and characterize Persian gum-based hydrogel composited with gentamicin (Gen)-loaded natural zeolite (Clinoptilolite) and to evaluate its biological properties. Clinoptilolite (CLN) was decorated with Gen, and the conjugation was confirmed using computational and experimental assessments. The Monte Carlo adsorption locator module was used to reveal the physicochemical nature of the adsorption processes of Gen on CLN and ALG and gum on Gen@ CLN in Materials Studio 2017 software. Based on the high negative results, the adsorption process was found to be endothermic in all studied cases, and the interaction energies were in the range of physisorption for Gen on CLN and ALG and gum on Gen@CLN. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) and zeta potential analysis showed that the size of pristine CLN was around 2959 nm and the conjugation decreased the size significantly to approximately 932 nm. The hydrogel characterizations showed that the Gen-decorated CLNs are homogenously dispersed into the hydrogel matrix, and the resultant hydrogels have a porous structure with interconnected pores. The release kinetics evaluation showed that around 80 % of Gen was released from the nanocomposite drug during the first 10 h. In vitro studies revealed hemocompatibility and cytocompatibility of the nanocomposite. Microbial assessments indicated dose-dependent antibacterial activity of the hydrogel against gram (+) and gram (-) bacteria. The results showed that the fabricated hydrogel nanocomposite exhibits favorable physicochemical and biological properties.

Catalytic Reduction of Dyes and Antibacterial Activity of AgNPs@Zn@Alginate Composite Aerogel Beads. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14224829. [PMID: 36432956 PMCID: PMC9698220 DOI: 10.3390/polym14224829] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2022] [Revised: 10/27/2022] [Accepted: 11/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
This work focuses on the preparation of aerogel composite beads based on Zn(II)-crosslinked alginate and loaded with different percentages of AgNPs using a simple approach. The obtained samples were evaluated in two different applications: the first application consists in their use as catalysts for the reduction of MB, MO, OG and CR dyes in a simple and binary system under the presence of NaBH4. For this, several parameters affecting the catalytic behavior of these catalysts have been investigated and discussed such as the catalyst mass, AgNPs content, dye nature, and the selectivity of the catalyst in a binary system. The second application concerns their antibacterial activities towards two Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 27853), and a Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923). The physico-chemical properties of different samples were characterized by XRD, FTIR, SEM/EDS, and TGA analysis. The obtained results confirmed the presence of AgNPs on a highly porous alginate structure. The dispersion of a high percentage of AgNPs leads to the formation of nanoparticles on the outer surface of the alginate which led to their leaching after the catalytic test, while the composite having a low percentage of AgNPs showed good results through all dyes without leaching of AgNPs. For the antibacterial application of the different samples, it was shown that a composite with a higher percentage of AgNPs was the most effective against all bacteria.
