Abstract
The second and most often utilized natural polymer is chitosan (CS), a naturally existing amino polysaccharide that is produced by deacetylating chitin. Numerous applications have been the subject of in-depth investigation due to its non-hazardous, biologically compatible, and biodegradable qualities. Chitosan's characteristics, such as mucoadhesion, improved permeability, controlled release of drugs, in situ gelation process, and antibacterial activity, depend on its amino (-NH2) and hydroxyl groups (-OH). This study examines the latest findings in chitosan research, including its characteristics, derivatives, preliminary research, toxic effects, pharmaceutical kinetics and chitosan nanoparticles (CS-NPs) based for non-parenteral delivery of drugs. Chitosan and its derivatives have a wide range of physical and chemical properties that make them highly promising for use in the medicinal and pharmaceutical industries. The characteristics and biological activities of chitosan and its derivative-based nanomaterials for the delivery of drugs, therapeutic gene transfer, delivery of vaccine, engineering tissues, evaluations, and other applications in medicine are highlighted in detail in the current review. Together with the techniques for binding medications to nanoparticles, the application of the nanoparticles was also dictated by their physical properties that were classified and specified. The most recent research investigations on delivery of drugs chitosan nanoparticle-based medication delivery methods applied topically, through the skin, and through the eyes were considered.

Microwave-assisted depolymerization of chitin and chitosan extracted from crayfish shells waste: A sustainable approach based on graphene oxide catalysis. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 251:126296. [PMID: 37573908 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.126296] [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: 03/13/2023] [Revised: 07/12/2023] [Accepted: 08/10/2023] [Indexed: 08/15/2023]
Abstract
This study targeted the sustainable utilization of chitin and chitosan from crayfish shell waste, and further depolymerization of the recovered products in one step through synergy between microwaves and graphene oxide, aiming for the monosaccharides, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and other high-value products. The results indicated that graphene oxide was more effective than graphene in enhancing the microwave absorption properties of the system, which is contrary to the parameters of their dielectric properties. The heating rate was increased by 0.37 K/s and 0.26 K/s when graphene oxide was introduced into the chitin and chitosan depolymerization systems, respectively, at a microwave power of 5 W/g. The mechanism underlying the impact of graphene oxide on chitin and chitosan under a microwave field was proposed by analyzing the variations in the depolymerization products of chitin and chitosan systems under different reaction conditions, including holding time, catalyst content, solvent content, and reaction temperature. Furthermore, the recovered graphene oxide exhibited delamination upon redispersion in water, which was not observed in the initial samples. The infrared spectra and scanning electron microscopy results suggest that the catalytic reaction is associated with oxygen-containing functional groups. This study demonstrated the synergistic effect of microwaves and graphene oxide on the depolymerization of chitin and chitosan, and the ability to achieve rapid one-step depolymerization in an acid/alkali-free solvent, which provides a green and promising development for the degradation of carbohydrate macromolecules in crustacean solid waste.

Chitin and crawfish shell biochar composite decreased heavy metal bioavailability and shifted rhizosphere bacterial community in an arsenic/lead co-contaminated soil. ENVIRONMENT INTERNATIONAL 2023; 176:107989. [PMID: 37245444 DOI: 10.1016/j.envint.2023.107989] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2023] [Revised: 05/08/2023] [Accepted: 05/21/2023] [Indexed: 05/30/2023]
Abstract
Sustainable management of ever-increasing organic biowaste and arable soil contamination by potentially toxic elements are of concern from both environmental and agricultural perspectives. To tackle the waste issue of crawfish shells and simultaneously minimize the threat of arsenic (As) and lead (Pb) to human health, a pot trial was conducted using chitin (CT), crawfish shell biochar (CSB), crawfish shell powder (CSP), and CT-CSB composite to compare their remediation efficiencies in As/Pb co-contaminated soil. Results demonstrated that addition of all amendments decreased Pb bioavailability, with the greatest effect observed for the CT-CSB treatment. Application of CSP and CSB increased the soil available As concentration, while significant decreases were observed in the CT and CT-CSB treatments. Meanwhile, CT addition was the most effective in enhancing the soil enzyme activities including acid phosphatase, α-glucosidase, N-acetyl-β-glucosaminidase, and cellobiohydrolase, whereas CSB-containing treatments suppressed the activities of most enzymes. The amendments altered the bacterial abundance and composition in soil. For instance, compared to the control, all treatments increased Chitinophagaceae abundance by 2.6-4.7%. The relative abundance of Comamonadaceae decreased by 1.6% in the CSB treatment, while 2.1% increase of Comamonadaceae was noted in the CT-CSB treatment. Redundancy and correlation analyses (at the family level) indicated that the changes in bacterial community structure were linked to bulk density, water content, and As/Pb availability of soils. Partial least squares path modeling further indicated that soil chemical property (i.e., pH, dissolved organic carbon, and cation exchange capacity) was the strongest predictor of As/Pb availability in soils following amendment application. Overall, CT-CSB could be a potentially effective amendment for simultaneously immobilizing As and Pb and restoring soil ecological functions in contaminated arable soils.

Abstract
Chitin is a polysaccharide and possesses numerous beneficial properties such as nontoxicity, biodegradability and biocompatibility, which draws much attention to its applications in food. Crayfish shell is a source of chitin alongside an antioxidants and a potential source of beneficial dietary fiber. In this study, chitin (CH) and crayfish shell (CS) with different concentrations were used to study their impact on pasting characteristics of flour mixture (wheat flour and glutinous rice flour) and influence on physicochemical and starch digestion property of puffed biscuit. The Rapid Visco-Analyzer results showed that the viscosity of powder mixture was decreased with the ratio of CH and CS increased. CH resulted in lowest peak viscosity and breakdown values of mixed powder. It was indicated that increasing amounts of CH and CS led to significantly reduced moisture content, expansion ratio but raised density of biscuits. CH and CS inhibited starch digestion and promoted a remarkable increase (P < 0.05) of resistant starch (RS) content. The hydrolysis kinetic analysis suggested a decelerating influence of CH on the hydrolysis content with lower values of equilibrium hydrolysis percentage (C∞) while CS on hydrolysis rate with lower kinetic constant (K). The estimated glycemic index (eGI) of the CH (15-20%) samples were below 55. These results are of great significance in delaying starch digestion and provided a better choice in design of fried puffed snacks for special crowd with chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and obesity.

Abstract
Both physicochemical and biological factors affect the degree of metal accumulation in crayfish tissues. The content of metals and correlations between the metal concentrations in different tissues and the total length of crayfish is suitable indicators of contamination of the aquatic environment. The aim of the study was to analyse the effect of age and sex of crayfish on the degree of accumulation of Ca, Cu, and Zn in the muscle and exoskeleton. A total of 100 individuals of the spiny-cheek crayfish (Faxonius limosus, Rafinesque, 1817) were caught from Głowińsk reservoir (Poland) in October 2019 using fyke nets. Metal concentrations were determined in freeze-dried samples of the abdominal muscle, exoskeleton, bottom sediment, and water using atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). Here, we show that the highest concentrations of Zn were found in the muscle of 4-year-old females, Cu in 3-year-old males, and Ca in 4-year-old males. Sex was a significant factor affecting the content of Ca in the muscle and Zn in the exoskeleton. Age was a significant factor affecting the content of Zn, Cu, and Ca in the muscle and Zn and Cu in the exoskeleton. The bioconcentration factor (BCF) of Zn and Cu in the muscle and exoskeleton of spiny-cheek crayfish was much higher from water than from sediments, unlike Ca. Furthermore, we found significant correlation for muscle between Zn and total length in 3-year-old females and 4-year-old males and between Cu and TL in 3-year-old males. Analysing the recommended daily intake (RDI) for the investigated minerals confirmed that the consumption of 100 g of spiny-cheek crayfish muscle could meet daily requirement for Zn up to 27.5%, for Ca in 12.4%, and over 100% for Cu. The conducted analyses confirmed that the consumption of crayfish meat was safe for the health of potential consumers in terms of the analysed metal content.

Abstract
Herein, an iron-doped ZIF-8-loaded multi-walled carbon nanotube (FZM) was synthesized and its adsorption performance on tetracycline (TC) was investigated. The experimental conditions (solution pH, temperature, adsorbent dose) were optimized by Box-Behnken design (BBD) in response surface methodology (RSM). The results show that the adsorption effect of TC by FZM is optimal under the conditions of temperature = 298 K, pH = 6, and contact time = 360 min. The adsorption processes of TC by FZM follow the pseudo-second-order (PSO) kinetic and Freundlich isotherm models, indicating that chemisorption is the dominant factor and the adsorption reaction is multi-layer, with a theoretical maximum saturation capacity of 1111.11 mg/g at 298 K. The adsorption thermodynamic results indicate that the adsorption of TC by FZM is a spontaneous and endothermic process. The mechanism of TC adsorption by FZM possibly occurs through hydrogen bonding, surface complexation, π-π interaction, and electrostatic interaction. From the statistical results, the optimal adsorption capacity of TC by FZM is 599.78 mg/g at a pH of 7.1, a temperature of 312.5 K, and an adsorbent dose of 64.43 mg/L, with a deviation of 1.73% from the actual value. Furthermore, regeneration experiments demonstrate that FZM has excellent reusability with a 15% loss of adsorption capacity after four cycles. This study provides some insights to study the adsorption behavior of TC by MOFs and the optimization of the adsorption experimental conditions, and also shows the potential of FZM for TC removal.

Abstract
Nowadays, new water disinfection materials attract a lot of attention for their cost-saving and ease of application. Nevertheless, the poor durability of the matrices and the loss of physically incorporated or chemically attached antibacterial agents that can occur during water purification processes considerably limit their prolonged use. In this study, a polystyrene-based cationic resin (R4) with intrinsic broad-spectrum antibacterial effects was produced without needing to be enriched with additional antibacterial agents that could detach during use. Particularly, R4 was achieved by copolymerizing 4-ammonium-butyl-styrene (4-ABSTY) with N,N-dimethylacrylamide (DMAA) and using N-(2-acryloylamino-ethyl)-acrylamide (AAEA) as a cross-linker. The R4 obtained showed a spherical morphology, micro-dimensioned particles, high hydrophilicity, high-level porosity, and excellent swelling capabilities. Additionally, the swollen R4 to its maximum swelling capability, when dried with gentle heating for 3 h, released water following the Higuchi’s kinetics, thus returning to the original structure. In time–kill experiments on the clinical isolates of multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens of fecal origin, such as enterococci, Group B Salmonella species, and Escherichia coli, R4 showed rapid bactericidal effects on enterococci and Salmonella, and reduced E. coli viable cells by 99.8% after 4 h. When aqueous samples artificially infected by a mixture of the same bacteria of fecal origin were exposed for different times to R4 in a column, simulating a water purification system, 4 h of contact was sufficient for R4 to show the best bacterial killing efficiency of 99%. Overall, thanks to its physicochemical properties, killing efficiency, low costs of production, and scalability, R4 could become a cost-effective material for building systems to effectively reduce bacterial, even polymicrobial, water contamination.

Abstract
In recent years, daily hygiene and disease control issues have received increasing attention, especially the raging epidemics caused by the spread of deadly viruses. The construction of the interface of new polymer materials is focused on, which can provide a cyclic operation process for the killing and releasing of bacteria, and perform repeated regeneration, which is of great significance for the development of advanced medical biomaterials. In order to explore the basic physical phenomena of bacterial attachment and detachment on the polymer material interface by different amine groups, this study plans to synthesize four different butyl methacrylate (BMA)-based cationic copolymers with primary, ternary, and quaternary amine groups, and compare their effects on bactericidal efficiency. Since BMA can generate strong hydrophobic interactions with the benzene ring structure, this study used a polystyrene substrate to realize a self-assembled cationic copolymer interface for controlling the counterion-induced bacterial killing/release process. Furthermore, negatively charged ions are introduced to induce changes in the hydration capability of water molecules and control the subsequent bacterial detachment function. In this study, possible directions to answer and clarify the above concepts are proposed, and there is a basic reference principle that can lead to research work in macromolecular bioscience fields.

Abstract
Carbon nanomaterials derived from agricultural waste streams present an exciting material platform that hits multiple sustainability targets by reducing waste entering landfill, and enabling clean energy and environmental remediation technologies. In this work, the energy and photocatalytic properties of reduced graphene oxide fabricated from coconut coir using a simple reduction method using ferrocene are substantially improved by introducing metallic oxides flakes. A series of cobalt ferrite rGO/CoFe2O4 nanocomposites were assembled using a simple soft bubble self-templating assembly, and their potential for clean energy applications confirmed. The transmission electron microscopy images revealed the uniform dispersion of the metal oxide on the rGO sheets. The functional group of the as synthesized metal oxide and the rGO nanocomposites, and its individual constituents, were identified through the FTIR and XPS studies, respectively. The composite materials showed higher specific capacitance then the pure materials, with rGO spinal metal oxide nanocomposites showing maximum specific capacitance of 396 F/g at 1 A/g. Furthermore, the hybrid super capacitor exhibits the excellent cyclic stability 2000 cycles with 95.6% retention. The photocatalytic properties of the synthesized rGO nanocomposites were analyzed with the help of malachite green dye. For pure metal oxide, the degradation rate was only around 65% within 120 min, while for rGO metal oxide nanocomposites, more than 80% of MG were degraded.

High-Surface-Area-Activated Carbon Derived from Mango Peels and Seeds Wastes via Microwave-Induced ZnCl2 Activation for Adsorption of Methylene Blue Dye Molecules: Statistical Optimization and Mechanism. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27206947.

Abstract
In this study, Mango (Mangifera indica) seeds (MS) and peels (MP) seeds mixed fruit wastes were employed as a renewable precursor to synthesize high-surface-area-activated carbon (MSMPAC) by using microwave-induced ZnCl2 activation. Thus, the applicability of MSMPAC was evaluated towards the removal of cationic dye (methylene blue, MB) from an aqueous environment. The key adsorption factors, namely A: MSMPAC dose (0.02–0.1 g), B: pH (4–10), and C: time (5–15 min), were inspected using the desirability function of the Box-Behnken design (BBD). Thus, the adsorption isotherm data were found to correspond well with the Langmuir model with a maximum adsorption capacity of (232.8 mg/g). Moreover, the adsorption kinetics were consistent with both pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order models. The spontaneous and endothermic nature of MB adsorption on the MSMPAC surface could be inferred from the negative ∆G° values and positive value of ∆H°, respectively. Various mechanisms namely electrostatic forces, pore filling, π-π stacking, and H-bonding govern MB adsorption by the MSMPAC. This study demonstrates the utility of MS and MP as renewable precursors to produce high-surface area MSMPAC with a potential application towards the removal of cationic organic dyes such as MB.

Abstract
In our study, the electrochemical properties of a novel activated nanocomposite were studied with 2-dimensional graphitic carbon nitride/sodium dodecyl sulfate/graphene nanoplatelets on the screen-printed electrodes (2D-g-C3N4/SDS/GNPs/SPE). The as-fabricated sensor exhibited excellent electrochemical performance, including wide dynamic ranges from 0.03 to 1.0 and 1.0-13.5 μM with a low limit of detection (LOD) of 10.0 nM. The fabricated 2D-g-C3N4/SDS/GNPs/SPE electrode exhibited high sensitivity, stability, good reproducibility, reusability, and repeatability towards DOX sensing. It can be utilized in real samples, including human plasma and urine, with excellent correlations and coefficients of variation below 6.0%. Therefore, this study presents potential application values in sensing DOX with efficient performance. Finally, the accuracy was attested by comparison with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) as the reference method, signalizing a good agreement.

Abstract
This paper presents a comprehensive study of the performance of a newly developed titania nanotube incorporated RO membrane for endocrine-disrupting compound (EDC) removal at a low concentration. EDCs are known as an emerging contaminant, and if these pollutants are not properly removed, they can enter the water cycle and reach the water supply for residential use, causing harm to human health. Reverse osmosis (RO) has been known as a promising technology to remove EDCs. However, there is a lack of consensus on their performance, especially on the feed concentrations of EDC that vary from one source to another. In this study, polyamide thin-film composite (PA TFC) membrane was incorporated with one-dimensional titania nanotube (TNT) to mitigate trade-off between water permeability and solute rejection of EDC. The characterization indicated that the membrane surface hydrophilicity has been greatly increased with the presence of TNT. Using bisphenol A (BPA) and caffeine as model EDC, the removal efficiencies of the pristine TFC and thin-film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes were evaluated. Compared to TFC membrane, the membrane modified with 0.01% of TNT exhibited improved permeability of 50% and 49% for BPA and caffeine, respectively. A satisfactory BPA rejection of 89.05% and a caffeine rejection of 97.89% were achieved by the TNT incorporated TFN membranes. Furthermore, the greater hydrophilicity and smoother surface of 0.01 TFN membrane led to lower membrane fouling tendency under long-term filtration.

Abstract
Chiral drugs are of great significance in drug development and life science because one pair of enantiomers has a different combination mode with target biological active sites, leading to a vast difference in physical activity. Metal-organic framework (MOF)-based chiral hybrid materials with specific chiral sites have excellent applications in the highly effective sensing of drug enantiomers. Sitagliptin and clonidine are effective curing drugs for controlling diabetes and hypertension, while insulin and norepinephrine are the biomarkers of these two diseases. Excessive use of sitagliptin and clonidine can cause side effects such as stomach pain, nausea, and headaches. Herein, through post-synthetic strategy, MOF-based chiral hybrid material Eu-BTB@d-carnitine (H3BTB = 1,3,5-benzenetrisbenzoic acid) was synthesized. Eu-BTB@d-carnitine has dual emission peaks at 417 and 616 nm when excited at 330 nm. Eu-BTB@d-carnitine can be applied in luminescent recognition toward sitagliptin and clonidine with high sensitivity and low detection limit (for sitagliptin detection, Ksv is 7.43 × 106 [M-1]; for clonidine detection, Ksv is 9.09 × 106 [M-1]; limit of detection (LOD) for sitagliptin is 10.21 nM, and LOD of clonidine is 8.34 nM). In addition, Eu-BTB@d-carnitine can further realize highly sensitive detection of insulin in human fluids with a high Ksv (2.08 × 106 [M-1]) and a low LOD (15.48 nM). On the other hand, norepinephrine also can be successfully discriminated by the hybrid luminescent platform of Eu-BTB@d-carnitine and clonidine with a high Ksv value of 4.79 × 106 [M-1] and a low LOD of 8.37 nM. As a result, the chiral hybrid material Eu-BTB@d-carnitine can be successfully applied in the highly effective ratiometric sensing of curing drugs and biomarkers for diabetes and hypertension.

Abstract
Considering the risk associated with exposure to benzene and toluene in water resources, researchers have been motivated to conduct studies to remove them from aqueous solutions. Thus, by performing the present study, the potential of Fe3O4/zeolite imidazolate framework nanoparticles (Fe3O4@ZIF-8) was evaluated for the adsorption of benzene and toluene. Accordingly, the solution pH, Fe3O4@ZIF-8 dosage, mixing time, concentration of benzene and toluene, and temperature, were the parameters considered for conducting the batch experiments, for which their effect on adsorption efficiency was evaluated. Our conducted experiments introduced the neutral pH as the best pH range to obtain the maximum removal. Fitting the adsorption data into the various models revealed the aptness of the Langmuir isotherm equation in describing experimental information and highest adsorption capacity; for benzene it was 129.4, 134.2, 137.3, and 148.2 mg g-1, but for toluene it was 118.4, 125.2, 129.6, and 133.1 mg g-1, for temperature 20, 30, 40, and 50 °C, respectively. Using obtained optimal conditions, the adsorption efficiencies of benzene and toluene were obtained to be 98.4% and 93.1%, respectively. Kinetic studies showed acceptable coefficients for PSO kinetics and confirmed its suitability. Also, the recyclability results showed that for six consecutive periods of the adsorption-desorption process, the percentage of removal decreased by only 6% for benzene and toluene. Moreover, calculating thermodynamic parameter changes for benzene and toluene removal confirmed the favorability and spontaneity of the studied process and its endothermic nature. Considering the above findings, Fe3O4@ZIF-8 was found to be an operative adsorbent for removing pollutants.

Abstract
For the quantifiable amounts of Telmisartan (TLM) and Hydrochlorothiazide (HYD) in the presence of Amlodipine (AML) in a ternary mixture of synthetic laboratory mixture, a novel, sensitive, quick, and practical reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method was given. In order to separate, a Waters Spherisorb ODS-2 C18 column was used. For HYD, TLM, and AML, these techniques were viable over linearity ranges of 4-12 μg/mL, 4-25 μg/mL, and 5-40 μg/mL, respectively. The mobile phase system was acetonitrile:methanol: phosphate buffer at pH 2.5 (65:5:30 v/v/v), and the flow rate was 1.5 mL/min. Novel spectrophotometric methods were applied for active substances to determine simultaneously. The first method is absorptivity centering using factorized spectrum, and the second method is dual amplitude difference coupled with absorbance subtraction. These approaches have been effectively applied to bulk, laboratory synthetic mixtures to employ active components quantitatively. Correlation coefficients were found to be higher than 0.99 and the limit of detection values lower than 0.49 μg/mL in both spectrophotometric methods. The methodologies were validated following ICH recommendations. In the developed HPLC method, the limit of detection values was found to be 0.01 μg/mL for HYD and 0.02 μg/mL for AML and TLM. The correlation coefficients for the HPLC method were found to be 0.9971 for HYD, 0.9990 for AML, and 0.9983 for TLM. The suggested HPLC technique is a simple, effective, sensitive, environmentally friendly, and time-saving approach for determining TLM and HYD in the presence of AML.

Abstract
A novel, sensitive, fast, and pratic RP-HPLC methods were presented for the quantitative amounts of Telmisartan (TEL) and Olmesartan (OLM) in the presence of Amlodipin (AML) in a binary mixture of pharmaceutical preparation. Waters Spherisorb ODS-2 C18 column was used for separation. These methods were valid over linearity ranges of 2.5-30 μμg/mlL, 2-85 μμg/mlL, and 2-35 μμg/mlL for OLM, TEL, and AML, respectively. The mobile phase system consisted of acetonitrile:methanol: phosphate buffer at pH 3.0 (65:5:30 v/v/v), and the flow rate was 1,5 mlL/min for OLM and AML. The mobile system's other mixture (TEL and AML) was acetonitrile:methanol: phosphate buffer at pH 2.5 (65:5:30 v/v/v), and the flow rate was 1,5 mlL/min. These procedures were successfully applied to bulk, laboratory synthetic mixture, and medicinal dosage forms to use active ingredients quantitatively. The studied methods were validated according to ICH guidelines. In the developed HPLC method, the limit of detection values was found to be 0.020 μμg/mlL for TEL, 0.025 μμg/mlL for OML, and 0.070 μμg/mlL for AML. The correlation coefficients for the HPLC method were found to be 0.9938 for TEL, 0.9996 for OML, and 0.9982 for AML. The calibration range is between 2.5 and -30, 5-35, and 2-85 μμg/mlL for OLM, AML, and TEL, respectively. The proposed HPLC method is a convenient, effective, sensitive, green, and time-saving method for the rapid determination of TEL and OLM in the presence of AML.

Abstract
In this study, we prepared alginate composite hydrogel beads containing various compositions of biochar produced from pitch pine (Pinus rigida) for the removal of Cu2+ and benzene from model pollutant solutions. The properties of the alginate/biochar hydrogel beads were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and Brunauer−Emmet−Teller analyses. Adsorption behavior of alginate/biochar hydrogel beads indicated that the adsorption capacities for Cu2+ (28.6−72.7 mg/g) were enhanced with increasing alginate content, whereas the adsorption capacities for benzene (20.0−52.8 mg/g) were improved with increasing biochar content. The alginate/biochar hydrogel beads exhibited similar adsorption capacities for Cu2+ and benzene in the concurrent system with Cu2+ and benzene compared to those in a single pollutant system. Adsorption kinetics and isotherm studies of the alginate/biochar hydrogel beads followed the pseudo-second-order model (r2 = 0.999 for Cu2+, and r2 = 0.999 for benzene), and Langmuir model (r2 = 0.999 for Cu2+, and r2 = 0.995 for benzene). In addition, alginate/biochar hydrogel beads (containing 1 and 4% biochar) exhibited high reusability (>80%). Therefore, alginate/biochar hydrogel beads can be applied as adsorbents for the removal of multiple pollutants with different properties from wastewater.

Abstract
Since the discovery of Quantum Dots (QDs) by Alexey I. Ekimov in 1981, the interest of researchers in that particular type of nanomaterials (NMs) with unique optical and electrical properties has been increasing year by year. Thus, since 2009, the number of scientific articles published on this topic has not been less than a thousand a year. The increasing use of QDs due to their biomedical, pharmaceutical, biological, photovoltaics or computing applications, as well as many other high-tech uses such as for displays and solid-state lighting (SSL), has given rise to a considerable number of studies about its potential toxicity. However, there are a really low number of reported studies on the detection and quantification of QDs, and these include ICP-MS and electrochemical analysis, which are the most common quantification techniques employed for this purpose. The knowledge of chemical phenomena occurring on the surface of QDs is crucial for understanding the interactions of QDs with species dissolved in the dispersion medium, while it paves the way for a widespread use of chemosensors to facilitate its detection. Keeping in mind both human health and environmental risks of QDs as well as the scarcity of analytical techniques and methodological approaches for their detection, the adaptation of existing techniques and methods used with other NMs appears necessary. In order to provide a multidisciplinary perspective on QD detection, this review focused on three interrelated key aspects of QDs: properties, surface chemistry and detection.

Abstract
Porous carbon nanomaterials (PCNs) are widely applied in energy storage devices. Traditionally, PCNs were mainly synthesized by activation and templating methods, which are time-consuming, tedious, corrosive and relatively high cost. Therefore, the development of easier and greener methods to produce PCNs is of great significance. Recently, organic potassium salts (OPSs) emerged as versatile reagents for synthesizing PCNs. The OPS-based synthesis of PCNs can avoid the use of large amounts of corrosive chemical agents. Potassium carbonate generated in situ from the decomposition of OPSs could serve as both a green activation agent and a water-removable template to produce nanopores. Potassium oxide and potassium formed at higher temperature could generate additional porosity, contributing to a highly porous architecture. The carbon-rich organic moiety could function as a carbon precursor and chemical blowing agent. This review aims to elucidate the multifunctionality of OPSs in the synthesis of PCNs and the capacitive performance of the corresponding PCNs. To this end, recent progress on the capacitive performance of PCNs synthesized from OPSs is summarized. This review provides constructive viewpoints for the cost-effective and green synthesis of PCNs with the aid of OPSs for application in supercapacitors.

Abstract
In this work a flexible multi-dentate 4,4'-(1H-1,2,4-triazole-1-yl) methylene-bis(benzonic acid) (H2L) ligand has been employed, a unique cluster-based nano-porous luminescent zinc(II) metal-organic framework {[Zn(μ6-L)]·(DMAC)2}n (1) (DMAC = Dimethylacetamide) has been isolated under solvo-thermal conditions. The H2L ligand adopts hexa-dentate coordination modes via one triazole nitrogen atom and four aromatic carboxylate oxygen atoms, which bridge the neighboring six-coordinated ZnII centers, leading to a three-dimensional (3D) nano-porous metal organic framework. A PLATON program analysis suggests the total potential solvent area volume is 2028.9 Å3, which occupy 62.5% percent of the unit cell volume (3248.4 Å3). PXRD Patterns of the as-synthesized samples 1 have been determined confirming the purity of the bulky samples. Photo-luminescent properties indicate strong fluorescent emissions of 1 at the room temperature. Further photo-luminescent measurements show that 1 can exhibit highly sensitive real-time luminescence sensing of anthrax biomarker dipicolinic acid (DPA) with high quenching efficiency (KSV = 1.48 × 105 M-1) and low detection limit (0.298 μM (S/N = 3)). Meanwhile 1 also exhibits highly selective and sensitive luminescence sensing for Cr2O72- ions in aqueous solutions with high quenching efficiency KSV = 1.22 × 104 L·mol-1 and low detection limit (0.023 μM (S/N = 3)). Therefore 1 can be used a unique multi-functional 3D cluster-based metal organic material in sensitive detection and effective detection of environment pollutants and biomarker molecules.

Abstract
Nine kinds of carbon dots (CDs) were synthesized by using fruits with different varieties as carbon sources; meanwhile, the fluorescence characteristics, quantum yield, and response ability to different metal ions and free radicals were systematically studied. These CDs showed similar excitation and emission spectral ranges (λex ≈ 345 nm, λem ≈ 435 nm), but very different fluorescence quantum yield (QY), in which orange and cantaloupe CDs have the highest QY around 0.25 and green plum CDs showed the lowest quantum yield around 0.1. Interestingly, the fluorescence of all of these CDs can be significantly quenched by hydroxyl radical (•OH) and iron ion (Fe3+); however, these CDs showed very different response characteristics to other metal ions (e.g., Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Ce3+, Mn2+, Ag+, and Fe2+). Through in-depth analysis, we found some interesting patterns of the influence of carbon sources on the fluorescence characteristics of CDs. Finally, by using white pitaya CDs as fluorescence probe, we realized sensing of Fe3+ and •OH with limits of detection (LOD) of 19.4 μM and 0.7 μM, respectively. Moreover, the CDs were also capable for sensitive detection in immune cells and even in zebrafishes. Our work can provide valuable guidance for the rational design of functional CDs for biological applications.

Abstract
Environmental pollution has become a major human concern with the extensive exploitation of pesticides. Pentachlorophenol (PCP) is the most hazardous of all chlorophenols which are being used as pesticide, fungicide, and wood preservative. Thus, the fabrication of ultrasensitive electrochemical methods for the determination of pesticides is of great significance. In the present experiment, a simple, green, and sensitive electrochemical sensor was constructed for the determination of PCP by using a chemically modified nickel ferrite glassy carbon electrode (NiFe2O4/GCE). The fabricated nanoparticles were primarily characterized by several analytical tools to confirm the functionalities, surface texture, crystallinity, and elemental composition. For the investigation of conductive nature, the proposed NiFe2O4/GCE was exploited to the primary electrochemical characterization tools e.g. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The ultra-sensitive determination of PCP was carried out under the linear dynamic range from 0.01 to 90 μM at the pulse amplitude of 80 mV/s in BRB buffer pH of 4. The limit of detection of the developed methods for PCP was calculated to be 0.0016 μM. The analytical applicability of the fabricated sensor was tested in different water samples depicting the acceptable recovery values.

Abstract
In this research, insertion of Gd ions (2 wt%) into the crystalline lattice of the ZnS QDs enhanced the photocatalytic activity of the QDs. In addition, the influence of graphene oxide (GO) and graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) was assessed on the photocatalytic activity of the ZnS QDs through degradation of acid red 14 (AR14) and bisphenol-A (BA) under visible light. Higher photocatalytic degradation efficiency (97.1% for AR14 and 67.4% for BA within 180 min) and higher total organic carbon (TOC) removal (67.1% for AR14 and 59.2% for BA within 5 h) was achieved in the presence of ZnS QDs/g-C3N4 compared with ZnS QDs/GO nanocomposite. Finally, the Gd-doped ZnS QDs were hybridized with g-C3N4 as optimal support to fabricate a potent visible-light-driven photocatalyst for the decomposition of organic contaminants. The maximum photocatalytic degradation of 99.1% and 80.5% were achieved for AR14 and BA, respectively, in the presence of Gd-doped ZnS QDs/g-C3N4 nanocomposite. The photosensitization mechanism was suggested for the improved photocatalytic activity of the ZnS QDs/GO, ZnS QDs/g-C3N4, and Gd-doped ZnS QDs/g-C3N4 nanocomposites under visible light.

Abstract
Geopolymers have been recently studied as environmentally friendly and low-cost adsorbents especially for the removal of cationic species in wastewater treatment mainly because of their negative surface charge at spontaneous pH conditions. Although there are very few recent studies conducted with different geopolymer composites on anionic dyes, high cost, difficulty of the composite preparation and most importantly the necessity of very low pH values limit their usage. Hence, in this study, a simple and low-cost surface modification with CTAB was applied to a previously prepared fly ash-based geopolymer (GEO) for the removal of anionic Acid Blue 185 (AB185) without the need of strongly acidic conditions. Within this scope, the effects of CTAB dosage (1-5% by weight of GEO), adsorbent dosage (0.5-3.0 g L-1) and initial dye concentration (10-50 mg L-1) were studied as a function of retention time (5-300 min). For 40 min, the removal efficiency of AB185 substantially increased from 0.29 up to 79.36% for the respective GEO and its modified product with 4% CTAB (MGEO4). The efficiency increased with the adsorbent (MGEO4) dosage of up to 2.0 g L-1 at which 89.20% was obtained for 300 min. However, a little decrease was observed down to 81.10% for 3.0 g L-1. The efficiency values of 98.19 and 89.20% were obtained for the initial AB185 concentrations of 10 and 50 mg L-1, respectively. The Langmuir-Hinshelwood kinetic model is highly correlated with the experimental results. The high adsorption capacity attained in a very short time suggests that the main mechanism is based on physical adsorption via the electrostatic attraction between MGEO4 and AB185. Overall results have indicated that the CTAB-modified fly ash-based geopolymer can be effectively used for the adsorption of AB185.

Abstract
Environment contamination is a colossal worriment across the world, owing to its detrimental and negative impact on health and ecological systems. Dyes are one of the synthetic organic chemicals that are utilised in a variety of fields, including textiles. As a result, throughout one's production and subsequently in fibre colouring, these are becoming frequent industry-contributed contaminants. Increasing globalisation of international market has presented a problem to textile sector in terms of consistency and production. Textile processors' primary concern, as the highly competitive environment and environmental standards grow more severe is about being mindful of the grade of goods and even non-toxicity of their production processes. There seems to be an immediate necessity to look for methods and technologies which are useful in removing dye colours. Even though each has benefits and weaknesses, many physical, chemical, and biological approaches were explored and used with the application being dependent on the effluent properties, technical feasibility, and cost. Several remediation technologies are already developed, but they seem to be ineffective at removing dyes completely. There is a fast growth of nanoparticles applications in the past few years which has opened up newer, innovating, highly efficient, and low-cost dyes remediation systems. Nanomaterials with large surface areas change surface characteristics and distinctive electron conducting capabilities which make them ideal candidate for the treatment of wastewater that contains dyes. In this review, we have highlighted not only the role of nanotechnology in dye remediation processes but also different types of nanomaterials that can be used for the remediation of dyes.

A ratiometric sensor for selective detection of Hg 2+ ions by combining second-order scattering and fluorescence signals of MIL-68(In)-NH 2. SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2022; 270:120858. [PMID: 35016060 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2022.120858] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2021] [Revised: 12/26/2021] [Accepted: 01/02/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Ratio fluorescence has attracted much attention because of its self-calibration properties. However, it is difficult to obtain suitable fluorescent materials with well-resolved signals simultaneously under one excitation. In this work, we report a different strategy, using MIL-68(In)-NH2 as both the fluorescence element and the scattered light unit, and coupling the fluorescence and the scattered light to construct the fluorescence and scattered light ratio system. Based on the optical properties and the second-order scattering (SOS) of the material nanoparticles, the synthesized MIL-68(In)-NH2 can be used to realize the ratio detection of Hg2+. Because the scattering intensity of small particle MIL-68(In)-NH2 is weak, SOS is not obvious. When Hg2+ is introduced the coordination reaction between the amino nitrogen atoms of MIL-68(In)-NH2 and Hg2+ make the particles larger, resulting in the decrease of fluorescence and the enhancement of SOS. As a result, a novel Hg2+ ratiometric detection method is developed by using the dual signal responses of the fluorescence and scattering. Under the optimal conditions (pH = 6, reaction time 5 min, room temperature, and the maximum excitation wavelength 365 nm), the linear range of the method is 0-100 μM, and the detection limit is 5.8 nM (Ksv = 9.89 × 109 M-1). In addition, the probe is successfully used to evaluate Hg2+ in actual water samples. Compared with the traditional method of recording only the fluorescence signal, the proposed fluorescence-scattering method provides a new strategy for the design of ratiometric sensors.

Abstract
Global production of shellfish aquaculture is steadily increasing owing to the growing market demands for shellfish. The intensification of shellfish aquaculture to maximize production rate has led to increased generation of aquaculture waste streams, particularly the effluents and shellfish wastes. If not effectively managed, these wastes could pose serious threats to human health and the ecosystem while compromising the overall sustainability of the industry. The present work comprehensively reviews the source, composition, and environmental implications of shellfish wastes and aquaculture wastewater. Moreover, recent advancements in the valorization of shellfish wastes into value-added biochar via emerging thermochemical and modification techniques are scrutinized. The utilization of the produced biochar in removing emerging pollutants from aquaculture wastewater is also discussed. It was revealed that shellfish waste-derived biochar exhibits relatively higher adsorption capacities (300-1500 mg/g) compared to lignocellulose biochar (<200 mg/g). The shellfish waste-derived biochar can be effectively employed for the removal of various contaminants such as antibiotics, heavy metals, and excessive nutrients from aquaculture wastewater. Finally, future research priorities and challenges faced to improve the sustainability of the shellfish aquaculture industry to effectively support global food security are elaborated. This review envisages that future studies should focus on the biorefinery concept to extract more useful compounds (e.g., carotenoid, chitin) from shellfish wastes for promoting environmental-friendly aquaculture.

Abstract
Tetracycline is a potentially hazardous residual antibiotic detected in various sewages. High concentration (mg/L) of tetracycline is found in pharmaceutical/hospital wastewater and wastewater derived from livestock and poultry. So far, only antibiotics in μg/L level have been reported in granulation of aerobic sludge during wastewater treatment, but its effects in high concentration are rarely reported. In this study, the influence of tetracycline in high concentration (∼2 mg/L) on the formation of granular sludge, structure, and metabolic function of the microbial community during the granulation of aerobic sludge was investigated to improve the understanding of the aerobic granular sludge formation under high-level of tetracycline. The role of extracellular polymers substances (EPSs) derived from granular sludge in the granulation and tetracycline removal process was also investigated, showing that tetracycline improved the relative hydrophobicity, flocculability and protein/polysaccharide ratio of EPSs, accelerating the granulation of sludge. Succession of microbial communities occurred during the domestication of functional bacteria present in the sludge and was accompanied with regulation of metabolic function. The addition of tetracycline lead to an increase of tetracycline-degrading bacteria or antibiotic resistance genus. Those findings provide new perspectives of the influence of tetracycline on aerobic sludge granulation and the removal mechanism of tetracycline.

The built-in heater of magnetothermal Fe3O4 nanoparticles in the actuator and the porous structure of the fibrous layer contribute to a fast actuation with a curvature of 0.4 mm−1 in 2 s. The higher loading amount of the Fe3O4 nanoparticles and higher magnetic field strength result in a faster actuation. Interestingly, the composite actuator showed a similar actuation even when it was covered by a piece of Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film, which shows a penetrable remote-control ability.

Abstract
Abstract
In recent years, with the rise of an intelligent concept, oral and maxillofacial surgery smart dressing had also attracted the interest of researchers, especially for the pH sensor with flexible medium. In this study, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) nanofibrous yarn was fabricated by a conjugate electrospinning process and modified with in situ polymerization of polyaniline (PANI) forming a PANI/PVDF yarn. By a weaving process, these yarns could be weaved into a fabric. It was found that both the PANI/PVDF yarn and the fabric showed a sensitivity to pH, about −48.53 mV per pH for yarn and −38.4 mVper pH for fabric, respectively, in the pH range of 4.0–8.0. These results indicated that the prepared PANI-modified PVDF yarn and fabric might have a potential application in intelligent oral and maxillofacial surgery dressings for monitoring wound healing.

Abstract
Immune modulation is one of the most effective approaches in the therapy of complex diseases, including public health emergency. However, most immune therapeutics such as drugs, vaccines, and cellular therapy suffer from the limitations of poor efficacy and adverse side effects. Fortunately, cell membrane-derived nanoparticles (CMDNs) have superior compatibility with other therapeutics and offer new opportunities to push the limits of current treatments in immune modulation. As the interface between cells and outer surroundings, cell membrane contains components which instruct intercellular communication and the plasticity of cytomembrane has significantly potentiated CMDNs to leverage our immune system. Therefore, cell membranes employed in immunomodulatory CMDNs have gradually shifted from natural to engineered. In this review, unique properties of immunomodulatory CMDNs and engineering strategies of emerging CMDNs for immune modulation, with an emphasis on the design logic are summarized. Further, this review points out some pressing problems to be solved during clinical translation and put forward some suggestions on the prospect of immunoregulatory CMDNs. It is anticipated that this review can provide new insights on the design of immunoregulatory CMDNs and expand their potentiation in the precise control of the dysregulated immune system.

Abstract
Excessive levels of dyes and heavy metals in water sources have long been a source of concern, posing significant environmental and public health threats. However, adsorption is a feasible technique for removing dye contaminants and heavy metals from water due to its high efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and easy operation. Numerous researchers in batch studies extensively evaluated various adsorbents such as natural materials, and agriculture-derived and industrial wastes; however, large-scale application is still missing. Nanotechnology is a novel approach that has arisen as one of the most versatile and cost-effective ways for dye and heavy metal removal. Its promotion on large-scale applications to investigate technological, fiscal, and environmental aspects for wastewater decontamination is particularly important. This review critically reviews wastewater treatment techniques, emphasizing the adsorption process and highlighting the most effective parameters: solution pH, adsorbent dosage, adsorbent particle size, initial concentration, contact time, and temperature. In addition, a comprehensive, up-to-date list of potentially effective low-cost adsorbents and nano-sorbents for the removal of dyes and heavy metals has been compiled. Finally, the challenges towards the practical application of the adsorption process based on various adsorbents have been drawn from the literature reviewed, and our suggested future perspectives are proposed.

Abstract
With the rapid growth of numerous portable electronics, it is critical to develop high-performance, lightweight, and environmentally sustainable energy generation and power supply systems. The flexible nanogenerators, including piezoelectric nanogenerators (PENG) and triboelectric nanogenerators (TENG), are currently viable candidates for combination with personal devices and wireless sensors to achieve sustained energy for long-term working circumstances due to their great mechanical qualities, superior environmental adaptability, and outstanding energy-harvesting performance. Conductive materials for electrode as the critical component in nanogenerators, have been intensively investigated to optimize their performance and avoid high-cost and time-consuming manufacture processing. Recently, because of their low cost, large-scale production, simple synthesis procedures, and controlled electrical conductivity, conducting polymers (CPs) have been utilized in a wide range of scientific domains. CPs have also become increasingly significant in nanogenerators. In this review, we summarize the recent advances on CP-based PENG and TENG for biomechanical energy harvesting. A thorough overview of recent advancements and development of CP-based nanogenerators with various configurations are presented and prospects of scientific and technological challenges from performance to potential applications are discussed.
