CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 356:141770. [PMID: 38554866 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.141770] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2023] [Revised: 02/10/2024] [Accepted: 03/20/2024] [Indexed: 04/02/2024]
Abstract
The objective of the present study was to employ a green synthesis method to produce a sustainable ZnFe12O19/BiOI nanocomposite and evaluate its efficacy in the photocatalytic degradation of metronidazole (MNZ) from aqueous media. An artificial neural network (ANN) model was developed to predict the performance of the photocatalytic degradation process using experimental data. More importantly, sensitivity analysis was conducted to explore the relationship between MNZ degradation and various experimental parameters. The elimination of MNZ was assessed under different operational parameters, including pH, contaminant concentration, nanocomposite dosage, and retention time. The outcomes exhibited high a desirability performance of the ANN model with a coefficient correlation (R2) of 0.99. Under optimized circumstances, the MNZ elimination efficiency, as well as the reduction in chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total organic carbon (TOC), reached 92.71%, 70.23%, and 55.08%, respectively. The catalyst showed the ability to be regenerated 8 times with only a slight decrease in its photocatalytic activity. Furthermore, the experimental data obtained demonstrated a good agreement with the predictions of the ANN model. As a result, this study fabricated the ZnFe12O19/BiOI nanocomposite, which gave potential implication value in the effective decontamination of pharmaceutical compounds.

Abstract
The persistence and potential toxicity of emergent pollutants pose significant threats to biodiversity and human health, emphasizing the need for sensors capable of detecting these pollutants at extremely low concentrations before treatment. This study focuses on the development of glassy carbon electrodes (GCEs) modified by films of poly-tris(4-(4-(carbazol-9-yl)phenyl)silanol (PTPTCzSiOH), poly-4,4'-Di(carbazol-9-yl)-1,1'-biphenyl (PCBP), and poly-1,3,5-tri(carbazol-9-yl)benzene (PTCB) for the detection of metronidazole (MNZ) in aqueous media. The films were characterized using electrochemical, microscopy, and spectroscopy techniques, including scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Monomers were electropolymerized through cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry techniques. Computational methods at the B3LYP/def2-TZVP level were employed to investigate the structural and electrochemical properties of the monomers. The electrochemical detection of MNZ utilized the linear sweep voltammetry technique. Surface characterization through SEM and XPS confirmed the proper electrodeposition of polymer films. Notably, MPN-GCEs exhibited higher detection signals compared to bare GCEs up to 3.6 times in the case of PTPTCzSiOH-GCEs. This theoretical study provides insights into the structural, chemical, and electronic properties of the polymers. The findings suggest that polymer-modified GCEs hold promise as candidates for the development of electrochemical sensors.

CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 319:138025. [PMID: 36736474 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.138025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2022] [Revised: 01/07/2023] [Accepted: 01/29/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
We applied gallic acid (GA) as the complexing agent to stabilizing the regeneration of Fe2+ during the Fe2+/peroxydisulfate (PDS) Fenton-like reaction for promoting the removal of metronidazole (MTZ). This research evaluated the elimination of MTZ by optimizing the dose of GA and Fe2+ and pH condition. MTZ removal reached 83% at the GA: Fe2+ molar ratio of 1:1 (30 μM) and initial pH 5 and 6.2 after 120 min, and the kinetics showed two degradation phases (kobs1 = 0.09636 for the rapid stage and kobs2 = 0.01056 for the slow stage). The Fe2+ and GA complexes could expand the range of pH applicability and effectively stabilize the regeneration of Fe2+, which ultimately promoted the decontamination of MTZ. Sulfate radical (SO4.-), hydroxyl radicals, and singlet oxygen were proved to exist in this ternary system and contribute to MTZ removal, and SO4.- played the dominant role. Furthermore, the possible pathways and mechanisms for MTZ degradation were proposed, and the simulation result indicated that the toxicity of degradation intermediates of MTZ were declined. The GA assisted Fe2+/PDS system provided an improved promising advanced oxidation process for organic wastewater disposal.

Abstract
Rising rates of drug abuse and pharmaceutical pollution throughout the world as a consequence of increased drug production and utilization pose a serious risk to public health and to environmental integrity. It is thus critical that reliable analytical approaches to detecting drugs and their metabolites in a range of sample matrices be developed. Recent advances in the design of nanomaterial-based electrochemical sensors and biosensors have enabled promising new approaches to pharmaceutical analysis. In particular, the development of a range of novel metal nanocomposites with enhanced catalytic properties has provided a wealth of opportunities for the design of rapid and reliable platforms for the detection of specific pharmaceutical compounds. The present review provides a comprehensive overview of representative metal nanocomposites with synergistic properties and their recent (2017-2022) application in the context of electrochemical sensing as a means of detecting specific antibiotic, tuberculostatic, analgesic, antineoplastic, antipsychotic, and antihypertensive drugs. In discussing these applications, we further explore a variety of testing-related principles, fabrication approaches, characterization techniques, and parameters associated with the sensitivity and selectivity of these sensor platforms before surveying the future outlook regarding the fabrication of next-generation (bio)sensor platforms for use in pharmaceutical analysis.

Study on Metronidazole Acid-Base Behavior and Speciation with Ca2+ for Potential Applications in Natural Waters. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27175394.

Abstract
Metronidazole (MNZ) is an antibiotic widely used for the treatment of various infectious diseases and as an effective pesticide agent for the cultivation of chickens and fish. Its high resistance to purification processes and biological activity has led to the classification of MNZ as an emerging contaminant. A speciation study, aimed to define the acid-base properties of MNZ and its interaction with Ca2+, commonly present in natural waters, is reported. The protonation constants of MNZ, as well as the formation constant value of Ca2+-MNZ species, were obtained by potentiometric titrations in an aqueous solution, using NaCl as background salt at different ionic strengths (0.15, 0.5, 1 mol L−1) and temperature (15, 25 and 37 °C) conditions. The acid-base behavior and the complexation with Ca2+ were also investigated by 1H NMR and UV-Vis titrations, with results in very good agreement with the potentiometric ones. The dependence of the formation constants on the ionic strength and temperature was also determined. The sequestering ability of MNZ towards Ca2+ was defined by the empirical parameter pL0.5 at different pH and temperature values. The speciation of MNZ simulating sea water conditions was calculated.
