[PMID: 38296139 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.129720] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2023] [Revised: 01/14/2024] [Accepted: 01/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/09/2024]
Abstract
Gelatin-based hydrogels have gained considerable attention due to their resemblance to the extracellular matrix and hydrophilic three-dimensional network structure. Apart from providing an air-permeable and moist environment, these hydrogels optimize the inflammatory microenvironment of the wounds. These properties make gelatin-based hydrogels highly competitive in the field of wound dressings. In this study, a series of composite hydrogels were prepared using gelatin (Gel) and carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCh) as primary materials, glutaraldehyde as a crosslinker, and aloe vera juice as an anti-inflammatory component. The properties of the hydrogel, including its rheological properties, microscopic structures, mechanical properties, swelling ratios, thermal stability, antibacterial properties, and biocompatibility, were investigated. The results demonstrate that the gelatin-based hydrogels exhibit good elasticity and rapid self-healing ability. The hydrogels exhibited slight shear behavior, which is advantageous for skin care applications. Furthermore, the inclusion of aloe vera juice into the hydrogel resulted in a dense structure, improved mechanical properties and enhanced swelling ratio. The Gel/CMCh/Aloe hydrogels tolerate a compressive strength similar to that of human skin. Moreover, the hydrogels displayed excellent cytocompatibility with HFF-1 cells, and exhibited antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus. Lomefloxacin was used as a model drug to study the releasing behavior of the Gel/CMCh/aloe hydrogels. The results showed that the drug was released rapidly at the initial stage, and could continue to be released for 12 h, the maximum releasing rate exceeded 20 %. These findings suggest that the gelatin-based hydrogels hold great promise as effective wound dressings.

Green synthesis of tellurium-doped SnO 2 nanoparticles with sulfurized g-C 3 N 4 : Insights into methylene blue photodegradation and antibacterial capability. LUMINESCENCE 2024; 39:e4693. [PMID: 38403841 DOI: 10.1002/bio.4693] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2023] [Revised: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/25/2024] [Indexed: 02/27/2024]
Abstract
The construction of SnO2 nanoparticles (NPs), specifically Te-doped SnO2 NPs, using a simple and economical co-precipitation technique has been thoroughly described in this work. NH3 served as the reducing agent in this procedure, whilst polyethylene glycol served as the capping agent. The primary goals of our work were to investigate the physicochemical properties of the synthesized SnO2 NPs and assess their potential use as antibacterial agents and photocatalysts. Scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray, ultraviolet light, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and other analytical techniques were used to thoroughly analyze the NPs. Based on the full width at half maximum of the most noticeable peaks in the XRD spectrum, the Debye-Scherrer equation was used to calculate the crystallite sizes, which indicated the presence of a single tetragonal SnO2 phase. Particularly noteworthy was the exceptional photocatalytic activity of graphene-assisted Te-doped SnO2 NPs, achieving an impressive decomposition efficiency of up to 98% in the photo-oxidation of methylene blue. Furthermore, our investigation delved into the antibacterial attributes of the synthesized SnO2 NPs against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, demonstrating inhibitory effects on both bacteria strains. This suggests potential applications for these NPs in various environmental and medical contexts.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024; 31:7586-7603.

Abstract
The cross-linked carboxymethyl starch-g-methacrylic acid (CCMS-g-MAA) was prepared by using grafting and micro-cross-linking in the one-pot preparation process. CCMS-g-MAA presented high removal capacity of Pb (II) of 57.13 mg/g at pH = 4 and high removal capacity of Zn (II) of 51.41 mg/g at pH = 5 by using a sample dosage of 0.68 g/L. Characterization results of FTIR, TG, and XRD illustrate that methacrylic acid and sodium tri-metaphosphate were successfully introduced into the structure of carboxymethyl starch. SEM characterization presented that the sample particles were amorphous aggregates with surface voids, which was favorable for the adsorption of heavy metal ions from wastewater. Adsorption isotherm results indicated that Freundlich equation could be better used to describe the adsorption process of metal ions on CCMS-g-MAA. The adsorption kinetic results indicated that the pseudo-second-order model is more suitable to describe this removal process. XPS results indicated that metal ions interacted with functional groups on the surface of flocculant, especially carboxyl groups. The removal process may be purposed that metal ions were adsorbed by porous material, and then combined with surface functional groups of the flocculant via electrostatic interaction, chelation or ion exchange. Subsequently, metal ions were separated from the wastewater with flocs precipitated in the bottom of solution via bridging and patching. The obtained results illustrated that CCMS-g-MAA was an effective material for the treatment of wastewater containing polymetallic ions besides mineral beneficiation wastewater supported by its excellent regeneration.

Abstract
In recent years, hydrogels as drug carriers have been receiving great interest due to their ability to change their behavior in response to one or more external stimuli. However, their initial burst release profile limits their practical applications. Therefore, we prepared a bio-based hydrogel nanocomposite (HNC) using starch, itaconic acid, acrylic acid and gelatin in the presence of CNF/ZnO-based nanohybrid (ZONH) and used it to evaluate the pH-sensitive drug release properties in different pH solutions. The prepared HNCs were analyzed using various spectroscopic and microscopic techniques. The BET analysis and swelling test of the HNC indicated improved porosity and swelling capacity due to the addition of ZONH. From the drug release study, sustained drug release rate was observed at pH 4 than those at pH 7.4 and 9, indicating controlled release as well as pH responsive behavior of the HNC. Moreover, the drug released HNC was reused as a photocatalyst for dye degradation and achieved good degradation (%). The antibacterial activity of ZONH and HNC was observed against EC and SA bacterial strains from the antibacterial test. In summary, the prepared HNC can be considered as a potential sustainable DDS for biomedical applications as well as a photocatalyst for dye contaminated water treatment.

Abstract
Heavy metal ions that exist in groundwater and farmland jeopardize the ecological environment and are very difficult to remove because of the complicated actual environment. Raw bentonite-gelatin beads (RB-GT) and magnetic bentonite-gelatin beads (MB-GT) synthesized in this work would be an appropriate tool to solve this problem. Those beads are synthesized by a facile hybrid injection method. Their adsorption behaviors on Cu(II) ions were systematically investigated using the batch adsorption method. The beads were characterized by scan electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The adsorption isotherm and adsorption kinetic study showed that the Cu2+ adsorption by MB-GT beads fitted the Langmuir model and the pseudo-second model. The adsorption maximum capacities reached 192.5 mg/g and 236.5 mg/g with Cu concentration of 1000 mg/L for RB-GT and MB-GT beads, respectively. The competitive adsorption with other heavy metal ions (Ni(II), Pd(II) and Cd(II)) were compared. The adsorption of Cu(II) mechanisms is also further discussed.

Abstract
Ionic conductive hydrogels prepared from various biological macromolecules are ideal materials for the manufacture of human motion sensors from the perspective of resource regeneration and environmental sustainability. However, it is now difficult to develop conductive hydrogels including excellent self-healing and mechanical properties, mainly due to their inherent trade-off between dynamic cross-linked healing and stable cross-linked mechanical strength. In this work, alkali lignin-Polyvinyl alcohol-polyacrylic acid double network conductive hydrogels with high mechanical strength and good self-healing properties were prepared. We formed the primary network structure by hydrogen bonding interaction between polyvinyl alcohol, alkali lignin and polyacrylic acid, and the secondary network structure by coordination interaction with polyacrylic acid through the addition of Fe3+. The added lignin acts as a dynamic linkage bridge in a porous network mediated by multiple ligand bonds, imparting superior mechanical properties to the hydrogels. The relationships between the alkali lignin and iron ion dosage and the comprehensive properties of hydrogels (adhesion, antibacterial, self-healing, electrical conductivity and mechanical properties) were studied in detail. On this basis, the hydrogels explored the role of lignin in the regulation of hydrogels properties and revealed the self-healing and conductive mechanism.

Abstract
Low-cost and reliable wastewater treatment is a relevant issue worldwide to reduce the concentration of environmental pollutants. Industrial effluents containing dyes, heavy metals, and other inorganic and organic compounds can pollute water resources; therefore, novel technologies are required to mitigate and control their release into the environment. Adsorption is one of the simplest methods for treating contaminated water in which a wide spectrum of adsorbents can be used to remove emerging compounds. Hydrogels are interesting materials with high adsorption capacities that can be synthesized via green routes. These adsorbents are promising for large-scale industrial wastewater treatment applications; however, gaps still exist in achieving sustainable commercial implementation. This review focuses on the discussion and analysis of preparation, characterization, and adsorption properties of hydrogels for water purification. The advantages of these polymeric materials for water treatment were analyzed, including their performance in the removal of different organic and inorganic contaminants. Recent advances in the functionalization of hydrogels and the synthesis of novel composites have also been described. The adsorption capacities of hydrogel-based adsorbents are higher than 500 mg/g for different organic and inorganic pollutants, and can reach values of up to >2000 mg/g for organic compounds, significantly outperforming other materials reported for water cleaning. The main interactions involved in the adsorption of water pollutants using hydrogel-based adsorbents were described and explained to allow the interpretation of their removal mechanisms. The current challenges in the implementation of hydrogels for water purification in real-life operations are also highlighted. This review provides an updated picture of hydrogels as interesting materials to address water depollution worldwide.

Abstract
Wound healing is a biological process that involves a series of consecutive process, and its impairment can lead to chronic wounds and various complications. Recently, there has been a growing interest in employing nanotechnology to enhance wound healing. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have expanded significant attention due to their wide range of applications in the medical field. The advantages of AgNPs include their easy synthesis, change their shape, and high surface area. Silver nanoparticles are very efficient for topical drug administration and wound healing because of their high ratio of surface area to volume. The efficiency of AgNPs depends on the synthesis method and the intended application. Green synthesis methods offer an eco-friendly approach by utilizing natural sources such as plant extracts and fungus. The characterization of nanoparticles plays an important character, and it is accomplished through the use of several characterization methods such as UV-Vis spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). These techniques are employed to confirm the specific characters of the prepared Silver Nanoparticles. Additionally, the review addresses the challenges and future perspectives of utilizing green-synthesized AgNPs loaded in Polyacrylamide hydrogel for wound healing applications, including the optimization of nanoparticle size, and release kinetics. Overall, this review highlights the potential of green-synthesized AgNPs loaded in Polyacrylamide hydrogel as promising for advanced wound healing therapies. There are different approaches of usage of AgNPs for wound healing such as polyacrylamide -hydrogels, and the mechanism after their antibacterial action, have been exposed.

Abstract
One of the crucial challenges of the adsorption process is to recapture the adsorbent from the solution, especially for adsorbents in powder form. This study synthesized a novel magnetic nano-biocomposite hydrogel adsorbent to successfully remove Cu2+ ions, followed by convenient recovery and reusability of the adsorbent. The Cu2+ adsorption capacity of starch-g-poly(acrylic acid)/cellulose nanofibers (St-g-PAA/CNFs) composite hydrogel and magnetic composite hydrogel (M-St-g-PAA/CNFs) was investigated and compared in both bulk and powder forms. Results showed that Cu2+ removal kinetics and swelling rate were improved by grinding the bulk hydrogel into powder form. The kinetic data and adsorption isotherm were best correlated with the pseudo-second-order and Langmuir models, respectively. The maximum monolayer adsorption capacity values of M-St-g-PAA/CNFs hydrogels loaded with 2 and 8 wt % Fe3O4 nanoparticles in 600 mg/L Cu2+ solution were found to be 333.33 and 555.56 mg/g, respectively, compared to 322.58 mg/g for the St-g-PAA/CNFs hydrogel. Vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) results demonstrate that the magnetic hydrogel that included 2 and 8 wt % magnetic nanoparticles exhibited paramagnetic behavior with the magnetization of 0.6-0.66 and 1-1.04 emu/g at the plateau, respectively, which showed a proper magnetic property and good magnetic attraction in the magnetic field for separating the adsorbent from the solution. Also, the synthesized compounds were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Finally, the magnetic bioadsorbent was successfully regenerated and reused for four treatment cycles.

Abstract
Severe bone defects can be caused by various factors, such as tumor resection, severe trauma, and infection. However, bone regeneration capacity is limited up to a critical-size defect, and further intervention is required. Currently, the most common clinical method to repair bone defects is bone grafting, where autografts are the "gold standard." However, the disadvantages of autografts, including inflammation, secondary trauma and chronic disease, limit their application. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) is an attractive strategy for repairing bone defects and has been widely researched. In particular, hydrogels with a three-dimensional network can be used as scaffolds for BTE owing to their hydrophilicity, biocompatibility, and large porosity. Self-healing hydrogels respond rapidly, autonomously, and repeatedly to induced damage and can maintain their original properties (i.e., mechanical properties, fluidity, and biocompatibility) following self-healing. This review focuses on self-healing hydrogels and their applications in bone defect repair. Moreover, we discussed the recent progress in this research field. Despite the significant existing research achievements, there are still challenges that need to be addressed to promote clinical research of self-healing hydrogels in bone defect repair and increase the market penetration.

ALSamman MT, Sánchez J. Adsorption of Copper and Arsenic from Water Using a Semi-Interpenetrating Polymer Network Based on Alginate and Chitosan. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:polym15092192. [PMID: 37177337 PMCID: PMC10180717 DOI: 10.3390/polym15092192] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2023] [Revised: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 04/27/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023] Open
Abstract
New biobased hydrogels were prepared via a semi-interpenetrating polymer network (semi-IPN) using polyacrylamide/chitosan (PAAM/chitosan) hydrogel for the adsorption of As(V) or poly acrylic acid/alginate (PAA/alginate) hydrogel for the adsorption of Cu(II). Both systems were crosslinked using N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide as the crosslinker and ammonium persulfate as the initiating agent. The hydrogels were characterized by SEM, Z-potential, and FTIR. Their performance was studied under different variables, such as the biopolymer effect, adsorbent dose, pH, contact time, and concentration of metal ions. The characterization of hydrogels revealed the morphology of the material, with and without biopolymers. In both cases, the added biopolymer provided porosity and cavities' formation, which improved the removal capacity. The Z-potential informed the surface charge of hydrogels, and the addition of biopolymers modified it, which explains the further metal removal ability. The FTIR spectra showed the functional groups of the hydrogels, confirming its chemical structure. In addition, the adsorption results showed that PAAM/chitosan can efficiently remove arsenic, reaching a capacity of 17.8 mg/g at pH 5.0, and it can also be regenerated by HNO3 for six cycles. On the other hand, copper-ion absorption was studied on PAA/alginate, which can remove with an adsorption capacity of 63.59 mg/g at pH 4.0, and the results indicate that it can also be regenerated by HNO3 for five cycles.

Abstract
The combination treatment is considered an approach to attaining synergistic impact while minimizing applied dosage. Hydrogels are analogous to the tissue environment attributed to hydrophilic and porous structure. Despite extensive study in biological and biotechnological domains, their restricted mechanical strength and limited functionalities impede their potential uses. Emerging strategies are centred on research and developing nanocomposite hydrogels to combat these issues. Herein, we prepared copolymerized hydrogel by grafting poly-acrylic acid P(AA) onto cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) and adding CNC-g-PAA as dopant (2 and 4 wt%) in calcium oxide (CaO) nanoparticles to generate an effective hydrogel doped nanocomposite (NCH) (CNC-g-PAA/CaO) for biomedical applications such as anti-arthritic, anti-cancer, and antibacterial investigations alongside their comprehensive characterization. CNC-g-PAA/CaO (4 %), compared to other samples, had a substantially higher antioxidant potential (72.21 %). Doxorubicin, a potential chemotherapeutic drug, was then effectively loaded into NCH (99 %) via electrostatic interaction, and pH-triggered based release was found to be >57.9 % in 24 h. Furthermore, molecular docking investigation against targeted protein Cyclin-dependent kinase 2 and in vitro cytotoxicity study verified the improved antitumor effectiveness of CNC-g-PAA and CNC-g-PAA/CaO. These outcomes indicated that hydrogels might serve as potential delivery vehicles for innovative multifunctional biomedical applications.

Abstract
A facile method was proposed for the elaboration of an electrochemical sensor for heavy metal's trace detection by using square wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV); this method is based on a simple anodic conversion of tin electrode into Sn/SnO2 modified electrode. Both electrochemical and physico-chemical techniques were used to confirm the modification process and better understand the electrode's behavior. Then, depending on the operating conditions, the response signal was studied and adjusted in order to obtain optimal sensor performance. When optimized, the proposed method reached a lowest detection limit (LOD) of 2.15 μg L-1 (0.0104 μM), and quantification limit (LOQ) of 5.36 μg L-1 (0.0259 μM), in linearity range between from 6.2 and 20.7 μg L-1. Additionally, after having used the elaborated electrode for ten successive measurements, the repeatability remains very high with an RSD of approximately 5.3%; furthermore, ten other species appear to have very slight effect on Pb(II) detection. Finally, for the method validation, the proposed electrode was able to sense different lead concentration integrated in a local bottled spring water by showing recovery levels ranging from 103.8 to 108.4%.

Abstract
Industrial wastewater is causing serious health problems due to presence of large concentrations of toxic metals. Removal of these metals is still a big challenge using pristine natural biopolymers due to their low surface area, water solubility, and poor recovery. Developing biopolymeric composites with other materials has attained attention because they possess a high surface area and structural porosity, high reactivity, and less water solubility. In simple words, biopolymeric nanohybrids have great adsorption capacity for heavy metals. Biopolymeric materials are abundant, low cost, biodegradable, and possess different functional moieties (carboxyl, amine, hydroxyl, and carbonyl) which play a vital role to adsorb metal ions through various inter-linkages (i.e., electrostatic, hydrogen bonding, ion exchange, chelation, etc.). Biopolymeric nanohybrids have been proven a potent tool in environmental remediation such as the abatement of heavy metal ions from polluted water. Herein, we have reported the adsorption potential of various biopolymers (cellulose, chitosan, pectin, gelatin, and silk proteins) for the removal of heavy metals. This review discusses the suitability of biopolymeric nanohybrids as an adsorbent for heavy metals, their synthesis, modification, adsorption potential, and adsorption mechanism along with best fitted thermodynamic and kinetic models. The influence of pH, contact time, and adsorbent dose on adsorption potential has also been discussed in detail. Lastly, the challenges, research gaps and recommendations have been presented. This review concludes that biopolymers in combination with other materials such as metal-based nanoparticles, clay, and carbon-based materials are excellent materials to remove metallic ions from wastewater. Significant adsorption of heavy metals was obtained at a moderate pH (5-6). Contact time and adsorbent dose also affect the adsorption of heavy metals in certain ways. The Pseudo-first order model fits the data for the initial period of the first step of the reaction. Kinetic studies of different adsorption processes of various biopolymeric nanohybrids described that for majority of bionanohybrids, Pseudo-second order fitted the experimental data very well. Functionalized biopolymeric nanohybrids being biodegradable, environment friendly, cost-effective materials have great potential to adsorb heavy metal ions. These may be the future materials for environmental remediation.

Abstract
Nanosilver, widely employed in consumer products as biocide, has been recently proposed as sensor, adsorbent and photocatalyst for water pollution monitoring and remediation. Since nanosilver ecotoxicity still pose limitations to its environmental application, a more ecological exposure testing strategy should be coupled to the development of safer formulations. Here, we tested the environmental safety of novel bifunctionalized nanosilver capped with citrate and L-cysteine (AgNPcitLcys) as sensor/sorbent of Hg2+ in terms of behaviour and ecotoxicity on microalgae (1-1000 µg/L) and microcrustaceans (0.001-100 mg/L), from the freshwater and marine environment, in acute and chronic scenarios. Acute toxicity resulted poorly descriptive of nanosilver safety while chronic exposure revealed stronger effects up to lethality. Low dissolution of silver ions from AgNPcitLcys was observed, however a nano-related ecotoxicity is hypothesized. Double coating of AgNPcitLcys succeeded in mitigating ecotoxicity to tested organisms, hence encouraging further research on safer nanosilver formulations. Environmentally safe applications of nanosilver should focus on ecologically relevant exposure scenarios rather than relying only on acute exposure data.

Abstract
Wounds are structural and functional disruptions of skin that occur because of trauma, surgery, acute illness, or chronic disease conditions. Chronic wounds are caused by a breakdown in the finely coordinated cascade of events that occurs during healing. Wound healing is a long process that split into at least three continuous and overlapping processes: an inflammatory response, a proliferative phase, and finally the tissue remodeling. Therefore, these processes are extensively studied to develop novel therapeutics in order to achieve maximum recovery with minimum scarring. Several growth hormones and cytokines secreted at the site of lesions tightly regulates the healing processes. The traditional approach for wound management has been represented by topical treatments. Metal nanoparticles (e.g., silver, gold and zinc) are increasingly being employed in dermatology due to their favorable effects on healing, as well as in treating and preventing secondary bacterial infections. In the current review, a brief introduction on traditional would healing approach is provided, followed by focus on the potential of wound dressing therapeutic techniques functionalized with Ag-NPs.

Abstract
Gelatin's versatile functionalization offers prospects of facile and effective crosslinking as well as combining with other materials (e.g., metal nanoparticles, carbonaceous, minerals, and polymeric materials exhibiting desired functional properties) to form hybrid materials of improved thermo-mechanical, physio-chemical and biological characteristics. Gelatin-based hydrogels (GHs) and (nano)composite hydrogels possess unique functional features that make them appropriate for a wide range of environmental, technical, and biomedical applications. The properties of GHs could be balanced by optimizing the hydrogel design. The current review explores the various crosslinking techniques of GHs, their properties, composite types, and ultimately their end-use applications. GH's ability to absorb a large volume of water within the gel network via hydrogen bonding is frequently used for water retention (e.g., agricultural additives), and absorbency towards targeted chemicals from the environment (e.g., as wound dressings for absorbing exudates and in water treatment for absorbing pollutants). GH's controllable porosity makes its way to be used to restrict access to chemicals entrapped within the gel phase (e.g., cell encapsulation), regulate the release of encapsulated cargoes within the GH (e.g., drug delivery, agrochemicals release). GH's soft mechanics closely resembling biological tissues, make its use in tissue engineering to deliver suitable mechanical signals to neighboring cells. This review discussed the GHs as potential materials for the creation of biosensors, drug delivery systems, antimicrobials, modified electrodes, water adsorbents, fertilizers and packaging systems, among many others. The future research outlooks are also highlighted.

Abstract
The development of compressible, stretchable and self-healing hydrogel dressings with good adhesive, antibacterial and angiogenesis properties is needed to promote the regeneration of diabetic wounds in clinical applications. In this work, a series of self-healing, adhesive and antibacterial hydrogels based on gelatin methacrylate (GelMA), adenine acrylate (AA), and CuCl2 were designed through covalent bonding, coordination complexation of Cu2+ and carboxyl groups and hydrogen bonding to promote diabetic wound healing. These hydrogels exhibit efficient self-healing properties, remarkable fatigue resistance, and good adhesive properties due to the hydrogen bond and the metal-ligand coordination provided by the Cu2+ and the carboxyl group. The GelMA/AA/Cu1.0 hydrogel (containing 1.0 mg/mL Cu2+) with well-balanced biocompatibility and antibacterial properties exhibited efficient hemostatic performance in a mouse liver trauma model and significantly promoted the healing process in a full-thickness skin diabetic wound model. The immunohistochemistry results showed that the GelMA/AA/Cu1.0 hydrogel can promote regular epithelialization and collagen deposition when compared to the TegadermTM Film, GelMA hydrogel, and GelMA/AA/Cu0 hydrogel. The immunofluorescence results confirmed that the GelMA/AA/Cu1.0 hydrogel can reduce the expression of proinflammatory factors and promote angiogenesis. In conclusion, the GelMA/AA/Cu hydrogel is an effective wound dressing to promote the healing process of diabetic skin wounds. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Diabetic wounds exhibit an extremely high risk of bacterial infection and poor angiogenesis in a high-sugar environment, hindering their healing process. Hydrogel wound dressings are a promising wound care material that need to have stable and long-lasting adhesive properties, avoid shedding, provide lasting protection to wounds, antibacterial properties and promote angiogenesis. In this study, a series of self-healing, adhesive, and antibacterial hydrogels based on gelatin methacrylate (GelMA), acrylated adenine (AA), and CuCl2 were designed and synthesized via free radical polymerization, hydrogen bond, and ionic bond to promote diabetic wound healing. Overall, GelMA/AA/Cu hydrogels are promising materials to promote diabetic wound healing.

Abstract
In the past few decades, nanotechnology has been receiving significant attention globally and is being continuously developed in various innovations for diverse applications, such as tissue engineering, biotechnology, biomedicine, textile, and food technology. Nanotechnological materials reportedly lack cell-interactive properties and are easily degraded into unfavourable products due to the presence of synthetic polymers in their structures. This is a major drawback of nanomaterials and is a cause of concern in the biomedicine field. Meanwhile, particulate systems, such as metallic nanoparticles (NPs), have captured the interest of the medical field due to their potential to inhibit the growth of microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, and viruses). Lately, researchers have shown a great interest in hydrogels in the biomedicine field due to their ability to retain and release drugs as well as to offer a moist environment.

[PMID: 35621561 PMCID: PMC9140941 DOI: 10.3390/gels8050263] [Citation(s) in RCA: 38] [Impact Index Per Article: 19.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2022] [Revised: 04/13/2022] [Accepted: 04/19/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Water is a vital resource that is required for social and economic development. A rapid increase in industrialization and numerous anthropogenic activities have resulted in severe water contamination. In particular, the contamination caused by heavy metal discharge has a negative impact on human health and the aquatic environment due to the non-biodegradability, toxicity, and carcinogenic effects of heavy metals. Thus, there is an immediate need to recycle wastewater before releasing heavy metals into water bodies. Hydrogels, as potent adsorbent materials, are a good contenders for treating toxic heavy metals in wastewater. Hydrogels are a soft matter formed via the cross-linking of natural or synthetic polymers to develop a three-dimensional mesh structure. The inherent properties of hydrogels, such as biodegradability, swell-ability, and functionalization, have made them superior applications for heavy metal removal. In this review, we have emphasized the recent development in the synthesis of hydrogel-based adsorbent materials. The review starts with a discussion on the methods used for recycling wastewater. The discussion then shifts to properties, classification based on various criteria, and surface functionality. In addition, the synthesis and adsorption mechanisms are explained in detail with the understanding of the regeneration, recovery, and reuse of hydrogel-based adsorbent materials. Therefore, the cost-effective, facile, easy to modify and biodegradable hydrogel may provide a long-term solution for heavy metal removal.

Abstract
Polyacrylic acid (PAA) is a non-toxic, biocompatible, and biodegradable polymer that gained lots of interest in recent years. PAA nano-derivatives can be obtained by chemical modification of carboxyl groups with superior chemical properties in comparison to unmodified PAA. For example, nano-particles produced from PAA derivatives can be used to deliver drugs due to their stability and biocompatibility. PAA and its nanoconjugates could also be regarded as stimuli-responsive platforms that make them ideal for drug delivery and antimicrobial applications. These properties make PAA a good candidate for conventional and novel drug carrier systems. Here, we started with synthesis approaches, structure characteristics, and other architectures of PAA nanoplatforms. Then, different conjugations of PAA/nanostructures and their potential in various fields of nanomedicine such as antimicrobial, anticancer, imaging, biosensor, and tissue engineering were discussed. Finally, biocompatibility and challenges of PAA nanoplatforms were highlighted. This review will provide fundamental knowledge and current information connected to the PAA nanoplatforms and their applications in biological fields for a broad audience of researchers, engineers, and newcomers. In this light, PAA nanoplatforms could have great potential for the research and development of new nano vaccines and nano drugs in the future.

Abstract
The exploiting of abundant natural polymers as potential absorbents for heavy metal ions is attracting. Cellulose is the most abundant natural polymer and exhibits amazing properties such as high chemical stability, hydrophilicity and biodegradability. However, some properties of pure cellulose-based materials including adsorbability are usually not enough, so it is important to improve their properties to broaden their applications. In the present work, hydroxyapitite (HAP) nanoparticles were prepared and introduced to improve the cellulose hydrogel (CG) properties. The structure and properties of the resultant cellulose/HAP nanocomposite hydrogels (CHG) were characterized and studied systematically. The results indicated that HAP nanoparticles was fixed and distributed evenly in CG. The maximum decomposition temperature increased gradually from 334.6 °C for CG to 346.7 °C for CHG, and the compressive strength increased gradually from 100 kPa for CG to 570 kPa for CHG with the increase of HAP content, respectively. Moreover, the adsorption capacity (qe) value of CHG towards Cu2+ could reach more than 300% higher than that of CG. As a potential absorbent, CHG exhibited relatively good recyclability of more than 78% after 10 cycles. Therefore, the introduction of HAP improved the properties of CG greatly, showing wide potential applications.

Abstract
To effectively detect and remove environmentally hazardous Cr(VI), a novel 3D porous fluorescent hydrogel was synthesised using amino-modified carbon dots and cellulose nanofibers. The synthesised fluorescent hydrogel was characterized to determine its morphology, crystalline structure, chemical composition and optical property using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, UV-vis absorption spectroscopy and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The sorption properties of the synthesised fluorescent hydrogel were further analyzed. The maximum sorption capacity for Cr(VI) reached 534.4 mg/g, the adsorption isotherm was well fitted using Langmuir model, and the adsorption kinetics were well fitted using a pseudo-second-order model. The sensing ability of the synthesized hydrogel for Cr(VI) was also determined. Furthermore, the mechanism of Cr(VI) sorption and sensing was determined. Accordingly, this novel 3D porous fluorescent hydrogel was identified to be a promising sorbent with advantages of excellent sorption and sensing abilities for environmentally hazardous Cr(VI).

Abstract
This work represented the synthesis of Ce doped SnO2 nanoparticles by a wet chemical method and was characterized by various characterization techniques. PXRD confirmed the presence of the rutile phase for Ce doped SnO2 nanoparticles. SEM image and elemental mapping showed agglomerated irregular shaped particles and uniform distribution of 5% Ce ions within the SnO2 lattice, respectively. Ce doped SnO2 nanoparticles showed antimicrobial activity against E. coli and prevented the growth of bacteria. The nanoparticles were found photocatalytic active and photocatalytic behavior was elucidated by the degradation of Malachite Green dye under UV light irradiation.

Abstract
Background We investigated levels of the metal elements Ca, Mg, Zn, Fe, and Cu in blood, normal skin (NS), and different types of scar tissue and aimed to elucidate the pathogenesis of hypertrophic scars (HS). Material/Methods Tissue specimens were excised from 3 groups of research participants: scar-free, flat scar (FS), and HS groups. Levels of the study elements were measured in blood, NS, and scar tissues with a spectrophotometer. The levels in plasma or in different types of specimens were compared among subgroups. In the FS and HS groups, levels were compared between the scar tissue and NS of each individual. In addition, element differences in exposed and unexposed areas of NS were investigated in the scar-free group. HS fibroblasts (HFB) were cultured in medium with various reduced levels of metal elements to determine the influence of metal elements on fibroblast growth. Results Levels of trace elements, including Zn, Fe, and Cu, were significantly lower in HS than in FS. The levels of Ca, Zn, Fe, and Cu were markedly lower in HS than in the patients’ own NS, while the Cu/Zn ratio was higher. However, no such difference was observed in the FS group. No significant difference in element levels was found in either plasma or NS among the 3 groups. Reduced levels of the elements promoted HFB proliferation within 24 h while an inhibition effect was observed at 72 h. Conclusions Our findings indicate reduced levels of metal elements in part of the healing microenvironment, suggesting that decreased metal levels may be involved in the pathogenesis of HS.

Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have recently become very attractive for the scientific community due to their broad spectrum of applications in the biomedical field. The main advantages of AgNPs include a simple method of synthesis, a simple way to change their morphology and high surface area to volume ratio. Much research has been carried out over the years to evaluate their possible effectivity against microbial organisms. The most important factors which influence the effectivity of AgNPs against microorganisms are the method of their preparation and the type of application. When incorporated into fabric wound dressings and other textiles, AgNPs have shown significant antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and inhibited biofilm formation. In this review, the different routes of synthesizing AgNPs with controlled size and geometry including chemical, green, irradiation and thermal synthesis, as well as the different types of application of AgNPs for wound dressings such as membrane immobilization, topical application, preparation of nanofibers and hydrogels, and the mechanism behind their antimicrobial activity, have been discussed elaborately.

Abstract
The adsorption of Cu2+ ions from an aqueous solution using AgNPs synthesized from Convolvulus arvensis leaf extract was investigated. The characterization of AgNPs was investigated before and after the adsorption of Cu2+ ions via Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses. The adsorbent contained various functional groups in addition to the AgNPs, which contributed to the Cu2+ ions adsorption. The silver nanoparticle surface consisted of spherical particles and deep pores, which adsorbed numerous Cu2+ ions. The influences of dosage, pH, and contact time on adsorption of 10 and 50 mg/L Cu2+ at 298 K, and initial Cu2+ concentrations at 298 and 323 K were studied. It was found that the highest percentage of Cu2+ ions adsorbed from an aqueous solution was 98.99%; the aqueous solution had 10 mg/L of Cu2+ ions and 0.2 g of AgNPs, at pH 12 and 298 K. A pseudo-second kinetics model offered the most accurate description of the process of adsorption. The process of Cu2+ adsorption more resembled a Langmuir rather than a Freundlich isotherm model, including chemical and physical mixed adsorption (mixed adsorption) processes, and was exothermic and spontaneous.

Abstract
Tough and conductive hydrogels are promising materials for various applications. However, it remains a great challenge to develop an integrated hydrogel combining outstanding mechanical, conductive, and self-healing performances. Herein, we prepared a conductive, self-healing, and tough hydrogel by constructing synergistic multiple interaction among montmorillonite (MMT), Poly (acrylamide-co-acrylonitrile) (P(AAm-co-AN)), xanthan gum (XG) and ferric ion (Fe3+). The obtained xanthan gum/montmorillonite/Poly (acrylamide-co-acrylonitrile) (XG/MMT/PAAm) hydrogels showed high strain stress (0.48 MPa) and compressive stress (5.9 MPa) as well as good shape recovery after multiple loading-unloading cycle tests. Moreover, the XG/MMT/PAAm hydrogels have distinctive features such as remarkable resistance to fatigue and harsh environments, insensitivity to notch, conductive, biocompatible, pH-dependent swelling behaviors and self-healing. Therefore, the as-fabricated hydrogel delivers a new prospect for its applications in various fields, such as flexible conductive device and tissue engineering.

Abstract
Novel nanocopper-loaded black phosphorus (BP/Cu) nanocomposites were synthesized to synergistically exert enhanced antibacterial activities aimed at reducing antibiotics abuse. First, both BP and Cu display low biotoxicity, broadening their application in the microbiological field. Second, the unique electronic properties of BP enable BP/Cu nanocomposites to amplify antibacterial effects via interfacial charge transfer, resulting in a surge of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Third, BP/Cu nanocomposites are relatively stable, which helps to avoid the problem that nanocopper alone is highly oxidized. Finally, BP/Cu was synthesized in an environmentally-friendly manner by a one-step reduction method. The BP/Cu nanocomposites were characterized by transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. Their antibacterial properties were investigated comprehensively and discussed in detail by inhibition zone assays, dynamic growth curves, membrane potential assays, and live/dead baclight bacterial viability assays, all of which revealed the antimicrobial activities of BP/Cu nanocomposites. Absorption spectra were measured to determine which ROS species were responsible for the bactericidal mechanisms. In summary, our results demonstrated the potential of nanocomposites based on BP in antibacterial therapy due to its excellent electronic properties and outstanding biological performance. This will pave the way for avoiding antibiotic overuse and for providing security to humans and the environment.

Abstract
Abstract
Polyurethane (PU) is a polymer widely used in the biomedical field with excellent mechanical properties and good biocompatibility. However, it usually exhibits poor antibacterial properties for practical applications. Efforts are needed to improve the antibacterial activities of PU films for broader application prospect and added application values. In the present work, two PU films, TDI-P(E-co-T) and TDI-N-100-P(E-co-T), were prepared. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were composited into the TDI-N-100-P(E-co-T) film for better mechanical properties and antibacterial activities, and resultant PU/AgNPs composite film was systematically characterized and studied. The as-prepared PU/AgNPs composite film exhibits much better antibacterial properties than the traditional PU membrane, exhibiting broader application prospect.

Abstract
A high-performance superabsorbent hydrogel have been successfully fabricated by using waste hemicelluloses lye. Not any extra base was added into the synthesis system for achieving hydrophilic polymer composite. In addition, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) was added the reaction system to entrap within the hemicelluloses-g-AA/bentonite matrix and form a semi-interpenetrating polymer networks (semi-IPN) for enhancing the swelling properties of the as-prepared polymer composite. SEM, FTIR, and TG were employed to characterize the morphologies, structure, and thermal stability of as-synthesized hydrogel composite. Moreover, liquid absorbency in distilled water and saline solutions, water absorption rate, water retainability, and water reusability of hemicelluloses-g-AA/bentonite (HAB) and hemicelluloses-g-AA/bentonite-PVA (HAB-PVA) hydrogels were also investigated systematically. The adsorption kinetics and isotherms of the composites were studied, and the synergy effect of PVA and bentonite were also proposed. This method provides a new avenue to design the new structure of superabsorbent hydrogel and treat the waste lye in green and sustainable chemical engineering processes.

Abstract
Hybrid hydrogels were prepared by blending Carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCts), Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) with Sodium sulfonate styrene (SSS) by 60-kGy gamma rays. The prepared hydrogels were utilized as silver-ion (Ag) sorbent under non- and competitive cases. Batch adsorption experiments were conducted in functional conditions including contact time, ratios of (CMC:CMCts) and SSS, pH value, temperature and adsorbent weight. Equilibrium contact time of 10 h. was obtained by the adsorption material. The optimal 4:2 ratio of (CMC:CMCts):SSS showed the Ag highest adsorption efficiency. The maximum percentage of Ag+ removal was achieved at the pH 5. The temperature effect on the adsorption ability of hybrid hydrogel indicated the Ag adsorption process was endothermic and spontaneous. The Langmuir isotherm model fitted Ag adsorption data well, assuming a monolayer adsorption with predicted maximum adsorption capacity of 451.74 × 10-3 mg. g-1. From the kinetic data, the process of Ag adsorption had higher agreement with the pseudo-2nd order model, predicting the amount of Ag+ uptake at different contact time intervals and at equilibrium.

Abstract
Green ion imprinted polymers (IIPs) were prepared in aqueous phase via the synergy of three functional monomers of low-cost eco-friendly gelatin (G), 8-hydroxyquinoline (HQ) and chitosan (C), namely G-HQ-C IIPs, and were applied as an effective and recyclable adsorbent to remove Cu(II) from aqueous solution. The as-prepared G-HQ-C IIPs were systematically characterized, and several major factors affecting adsorption capacity including solution pH, temperature and contact time were investigated in detail. The adsorption of Cu(II) on G-HQ-C IIPs followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models, and the adsorption capacity increased with temperature increase. Moreover, the maximum adsorption capacities of G-HQ-C IIPs toward Cu(II) reached up to 111.81 mg/g at room temperature, much higher than those of most of the reported adsorbents for Cu(II). The G-HQ-C IIPs displayed excellent selectivity against seven common divalent ions with selectivity coefficients above 18.71, as well as high anti-interference ability. Additionally, a good reusability was demonstrated without significant loss in adsorption capacity after at least ten cycles. The IIPs were applied to environmental water samples for selective removal of Cu(II) with satisfactory results. By replacing Cu(II) template by Cd(II), Hg(II) and Pb(II), respectively, the obtained three kinds of IIPs based on G-HQ-C presented convincing imprinting properties, and therefore the work could provide a simple and general imprinting strategy toward various concerned heavy metal ions through multi-point interactions from multiple functional monomers.

Abstract
Super-paramagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs)/gelatin (gel)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanoparticles were designed and synthesized by the co-precipitation method and further modified with gel and PVA. These nanoparticles were used for the removal of Cu(II) and Zn(II) from aqueous solutions. The adsorbents were rich in different functional groups for chemisorption and showed effective adsorption properties. The adsorption of Cu(II) and Zn(II) on the SPIONs/gel and SPIONs/gel/PVA materials were investigated with respect to pH, adsorption kinetics, and adsorption isotherms. The adsorption data was fitted to the Langmuir, Freundlich, and Sips models at the optimum pH 5.2 (±0.2) over 60 min; SPIONs/gel showed maximum adsorption capacities of 47.594 mg/g and 40.559 mg/g for Cu(II) and Zn(II); SPIONs/gel/PVA showed those of 56.051 mg/g and 40.865 mg/g, respectively. The experimental data fitted the pseudo-second-order model, indicating that the process followed chemical monolayer adsorption. In addition, the SPIONs/gel/PVA showed better stability and Cu(II) adsorption efficiency than SPIONs/gel.
