Abstract
For unique surface plasmon absorption and fluorescence characteristics, gold nanorods have been developed and widely employed in the biomedical field. However, limitations still exist due their low specific surface area, instability and tendency agglomerate in cytoplasm. Mesoporous silica materials have been broadly applied in field of catalysts, adsorbents, nanoreactors, and drug carriers due to its unique mesoporous structure, highly comparative surface area, good stability and biocompatibility. Therefore, coating gold nanorods with a dendritic mesopore channels can effectively prevent particle agglomeration, while increasing the specific surface area and drug loading efficiency. This review discusses the advancements of GNR@MSN in synthetic process, bio-imaging technique and tumor therapy. Additionally, the further application of GNR@MSN in imaging-guided treatment modalities is explored, while its promising superior application prospect is highlighted. Finally, the issues related to in vivo studies are critically examined for facilitating the transition of this promising nanoplatform into clinical trials.

Point-of-Use SERS Approach for Efficient Determination and Removal of Phthalic Acid Esters Based on a Metal-Organic Framework-Coated Melamine Sponge.

Abstract
Phthalic acid esters (PAEs) are ubiquitous environmental contaminants, and their real-time monitoring and removal remain challenging. Herein, a point-of-use (POU) device integrating adsorption, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), and removal strategy was developed and realized ultrafast on-site determination of PAEs and cleanup of them from water. A piece of flexible melamine sponge (MS) was coated with gold nanostars (AuNSs) and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), thus obtaining SERS activity and adsorption capacity. Based on this multifunctional AuNSs@MOFs/MS composite, clear trends were observed between SERS signal intensity and concentration of di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) and dibutyl phthalate (DBP). The method detection limits of DEHP and DBP were calculated to be 0.75 × 10-7 and 0.67 × 10-7 M in water, respectively, proving good sensitivity. Furthermore, this POU device exhibited satisfactory adsorption capacity (∼82.3 g/g for DBP and ∼90.0 g/g for DEHP), high adsorption efficiency (equilibrium in 100 s), and good regeneration capability (removal efficiency >70% after 5 cycles). The applicability of this device was verified by its good determination and removal performance in real environmental water matrices. The whole process could be completed within 5 min. This approach provides a new POU alternative for real-time monitoring and removal of PAEs in water.

[PMID: 38330462 DOI: 10.1088/1361-6528/ad27ab] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2023] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/10/2024]
Abstract
A surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate of porous rod-shaped ferric oxide (Fe2O3) combined with silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) and black phosphorus (Fe2O3/Ag/BP) was fabricated to detect the persistent organic pollutants (POPs) at low concentration. The organic pollutant Rhodamine 6G (R6G) was used as the probe molecule to study the performances of Fe2O3/Ag/BP, and 4-chlorobiphenyl (PCB-3) was the target of detection. The limit of detection (LOD) of R6G based on this novel SERS substrate Fe2O3/Ag/BP was as low as 1.0 × 10-15M, which was five orders of magnitude lower than that of Fe2O3/Ag (10-10M). The enhancement factor (EF) of Fe2O3/Ag/BP was 6.44 × 108, which was 3.1 times higher than that of porous rod-shaped Fe2O3/Ag (2.08 × 108). The Raman signal of R6G based on Fe2O3/Ag/BP had a good homogeneity, and the relative standard deviation (RSD) of Raman signal intensities of R6G at 1643 cm-1was only 5.97%. Furthermore, the Fe2O3/Ag/BP substrate exhibited a recyclability through the photocatalytic degradation of R6G. The LOD of PCB-3 based on Fe2O3/Ag/BP was 10-9M. Besides, Fe2O3/Ag/BP had a high SERS activity even it was kept in a centrifuge tube without requiring complicated treatment. These results highlight the potential application of Fe2O3/Ag/BP for ultra-trace detection of POPs in the environment.

Multifunctional 3D magnetic carbon aerogel for adsorption separation and highly sensitive SERS detection of malachite green. CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 339:139654. [PMID: 37495048 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.139654] [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: 04/20/2023] [Revised: 07/23/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 07/28/2023]
Abstract
This work presents a novel strategy for the synthesis of a recyclable aerogel and its multifunctional application as effective adsorption material for organic pollutants and as a high-quality SERS substrate for on-site detection measurement. Silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were uniformly dispersed and adsorbed on the surface of an Fe3C-loaded carbon aerogel, resulting in the formation of a three-dimensional Ag-Fe3C-MCA (magnetic carbon aerogel) composite. The substrate preparation led to Ag-Fe3C-MCA with a mesoporous structure for high adsorption capacity, together with magnetic properties for easy separation capability. The Ag-Fe3C-MCA composite demonstrated an efficient removal ability for malachite green (MG), with an adsorption capacity of 296.7 mg g-1. Moreover, Ag-Fe3C-MCA composite provided ultrasensitive surface-enhanced Raman scattering detection for MG molecules, obtaining a limit of detection (LOD) of 3 × 10-10 M. Aquaculture water samples with spiked MG concentrations were used to simulate practical scenarios. The Ag-Fe3C-MCA presented has a significant potential for the removal of hazardous residues in wastewater, together with an efficient and sensitive method of quantification, all on the same substrate.
