Abstract
Through etherification reaction, epoxy propyl dimethyl dodecyl ammonium chloride (EPDMDAC) was grafted onto the surface of a cellulose acetate (CA) membrane to prepare a stable nonleaching antibacterial antifouling membrane (QCA-X). The results showed that with the extension of grafting reaction time, the quaternary ammonium salt groups on the membrane surface increased and the hydrophilicity was enhanced. Compared with those of the CA membrane, the filtration capacity and antifouling performance of the QCA-X membrane are improved. When the grafting time is 4 h, the water permeability and flux recovery rate of the QCA-4 membrane are increased by 139 and 21.5%, respectively. The QCA-X membrane showed excellent antibacterial performance, and the sterilization rate against S. aureus and E. coli was more than 99.99%. After four repeated antibacterial cycles, the bactericidal rates against S. aureus and E. coli were maintained at about 99.69 ± 0.02 and 99.98 ± 0.02%, respectively, with good antibacterial persistence. Moreover, the QCA-X membrane can effectively inhibit bacterial adhesion. Mild and simple EPDMDAC grafting modifications improve the antibacterial, antifouling, and antibioadhesion properties of the CA membrane, showing its application potential in long-term water treatment, especially in biofouling water treatment.

Abstract
Electrospinning, being a versatile and straightforward method to produce nanofiber membranes, has shown significant advancement in recent years. On account of the unique properties such as high surface area, high porosity, mechanical strength, and controllable surface morphologies, electrospun nanofiber membranes have been found to have a great potential in many disciplines. Pure electrospun fiber mats modified with different techniques of surface modification and additive incorporation have exhibited enhanced properties compared to traditional membranes and are even better than the as-prepared electrospun membranes. In this review, we have summarized recently developed electrospun nanohybrids fabricated by the incorporation of functional specific nanosized additives to be used in various water remediation membrane techniques. The adsorption, filtration, photocatalytic, and bactericidal capabilities of the hybrid membranes in removing common major water pollutants such as metal ions, dyes, oils, and biological pollutants have been discussed. Finally, an outlook on the future research pathways to fill the gaps existing in water remediation have been suggested.

Abstract
Abstract
Hybrid fibers consisting of biopolymers and inorganic nanoparticles are receiving increasing attention due to their unique properties. Commonly, the nanoparticles are chosen for their intrinsic properties such as magnetic, thermal, or electrical conductivity. The biopolymer component of the hybrid fiber is chosen for its mechanical properties and ability to act as a scaffold or matrix for the nanoparticles. While there are many fiber-forming synthetic polymers, there has been a recent interest in replacing these systems with biopolymers due to their sustainability, biocompatibility, nontoxicity, and biodegradability. Fibers made from biopolymers have one additional benefit over synthetic polymers as they make good scaffolds for embedding nanoparticles without the need of any additional bonding agents. In particular, naturally occurring biopolymers such as proteins exhibit a myriad of interactions with nanoparticles, including ionic, H-bonding, covalent, Van der Waals, and electrostatic interactions. The diverse range of interactions between magnetic nanoparticles and biopolymers makes resulting hybrid fibers of particular interest as magnetic-responsive materials. Magnetically responsive hybrid biopolymer fibers have many features, including enhanced thermal stabilities, strong mechanical toughness, and perhaps most interestingly multifunctionality, allowing for a wide range of applications. These applications range from biosensing, filtration, UV shielding, antimicrobial, and medical applications, to name a few. Here, we review established hybrid fibers consisting of biopolymers and nanoparticles with a primary focus on biopolymers doped with magnetic nanoparticles and their various putative applications.

Abstract
The ability to achieve exquisite control over polymer building blocks within multicompartment magnetite nanocomposites (NCs) to afford predictable and ordered packing hierarchical structures remains a significant challenge for the design of NCs. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop new types of nano-dimensional assemblies that undergo responsive shape shift, size, phase, and morphological transitions, especially for processes that are triggered by biologically relevant stimuli such as ionic gradients to meet the demand for diverse applications. Accordingly, we report an unprecedented concept for the preparation of salt-responsive magnetite/polyaniline composite nanoassemblies with chemically distinct dual-compartment structures. The size, shape, and nano-dimensional phase separation of the PANI assemblies within NCs were adjusted in a facile manner with incremental changes in salt gradients using NaCl(aq). Composition effects bestow desirable diversiform shape, size, and phase behavior of the incorporated conductive polymer via dynamic H-bonding. The size, shape, and superparamagnetic character of iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) are unaffected by a "salting-in" process. The mechanism, gradual morphological evolution, interchangeable nanophase separation, and ion-stimulated disassembly of PANI building blocks for these magneto/ion-responsive polymer-composites at elevated ionic strength are strongly supported by DLS, Raman spectroscopy, TEM, and equilibrium dye (MB/MO) recognition studies.

Abstract
Herein, we report the preparation of an aerogel and a membrane from a magnetic composite material by tuning the self-assembly at the molecular level. The gel exhibits an excellent oil absorption property, and the membrane shows a remarkable autonomous self-healing property. The composite is formed from an organosilicon-modified poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimer, which is linked with iron oxide nanoparticles and poly(vinyl alcohol). Upon the addition of a cross-linker (formaldehyde), the system undergoes a fast self-assembly and gelation process. The aerogel, obtained after drying of the hydrogel, was modified with 1- bromohexadecane at room temperature and utilized for the removal of oil from water with 22.9 g/g absorption capacity. Intriguingly, the same system forms a membrane with 97% autonomous self-healing ability, in the absence of the cross-linker. The membrane was used to remove the salt content from water with an efficiency of 85%. The control experiments suggest that the presence of the magnetic material (iron oxide) plays a key role in the formation of both the aerogel and membrane.

Abstract
Electrospun cellulose acetate nanofibers (CA-NF) have been modified with perfluoro alkoxysilanes (FS/CA-NF) for tailoring their chemical and physical features aiming oil-water separation purposes. Strikingly, hybrid FS/CA-NF showed that perfluoro groups are rigidly positioned on the outer surface of the nanofibers providing superhydrophobic characteristic with a water contact angle of ∼155°. Detailed analysis showed that hydrolysis/condensation reactions led to the modification of the acetylated β(1 → 4) linked d-glucose chains of CA transforming it into a superhydrophobic nanofibrous mat. Analytical data have revealed that CA-NF surfaces can be selectively controlled for fabricating the durable, robust and water resistant hybrid electrospun nanofibrous mat. The -OH groups available on the CA structure allowed the basic sol-gel reactions started by the reactive FS hybrid precursor system which can be monitored by spectroscopic analysis. Since alkoxysilane groups on the perfluoro silane compound are capable of reacting for condensation together with the CA, superhydrophobic nanofibrous mat is obtained via electrospinning. This structural modification led to the facile fabrication of the novel oil/water nanofibrous separator which functions effectively demonstrated by hexane/oil and water separation experiments. Perfluoro groups consequently modified the hydrophilic CA nanofibers into superhydrophobic character and therefore FS/CA-NF could be quite practical for future applications like water/oil separators, as well as self-cleaning or water resistant nanofibrous structures.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States and approximately 85% of all lung cancers are classified as nonsmall cell (NSCLC). We here use an innovative approach that may ultimately allow for the clinician to target tumors and aggressively reduce tumor burden in patients with NSCLC. In this study, a platinum (Pt)-based chemotherapeutic (cisplatin, carboplatin, or oxaliplatin) and holmium-165 (Ho), which can be neutron-activated to produce the holmium-166 radionuclide, have been incorporated together in a garnet magnetic nanoparticle (HoIG-Pt) for selective delivery to tumors using an external magnet. The synthesized magnetic HoIG nanoparticles were characterized using PXRD, TEM, ICP-MS, and neutron-activation. Platinum(II) drugs were incorporated onto HoIG, and these were characterized using FTIR, EDX, ICP-MS, and zeta potential measurements, and in vitro and in vivo studies were performed using a HoIG-platinum system. Results indicate that neutron-activated (166)HoIG-cisplatin is more toxic toward NSCLC A549 cells than is blank (166)HoIG and free cisplatin, and that when an external magnetic field is applied in vivo, higher tumor to liver ratios of Ho are observed than when no magnet is applied, suggesting that magnetic targeting is achieved using this system. Furthermore, an efficacy study demonstrated the inhibition of tumor growth by chemoradiotherapeutic magnetic nanoparticles, compared to no treatment controls.

Abstract
High heat generation is reported in core-shell magnetic nanoparticle polystyrene (PS) nanocomposites (3.5, 10 wt %) when they are placed in a high-frequency ac magnetic field. These magnetic nanoparticles with cobalt iron oxide core and manganese iron oxide shell were synthesized and characterized by wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAX), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and ac field gradient magnetometery. When placed in a high-frequency ac magnetic field, the thermal energy generated in the magnetic polystyrene nanocomposites resulted in a surface temperature increase. The heat generation is attributed to the contribution of Néel relaxation and hysteresis of the core-shell magnetic nanoparticles in the solid state. The maximum surface temperature increased with increasing nanoparticle content and resulted in melting of the magnetic polystyrene nanocomposite.

Abstract
Radiation therapy is used as a primary treatment for inoperable tumors and in patients that cannot or will not undergo surgery. Radioactive holmium-166 ((166)Ho) is a viable candidate for use against skin cancer. Nonradioactive holmium-165 ((165)Ho) iron garnet nanoparticles have been incorporated into a bandage, which, after neutron-activation to (166)Ho, can be applied to a tumor lesion. The (165)Ho iron garnet nanoparticles ((165)HoIG) were synthesized and introduced into polyacrylonitrile (PAN) polymer solutions. The polymer solutions were then electrospun to produce flexible nonwoven bandages, which are stable to neutron-activation. The fiber mats were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The bandages are stable after neutron-activation at a thermal neutron-flux of approximately 3.5 × 10(12) neutrons/cm(2)·s for at least 4 h and 100 °C. Different amounts of radioactivity can be produced by changing the amount of the (165)HoIG nanoparticles inside the bandage and the duration of neutron-activation, which is important for different stages of skin cancer. Furthermore, the radioactive bandage can be easily manipulated to irradiate only the tumor site by cutting the bandage into specific shapes and sizes that cover the tumor prior to neutron-activation. Thus, exposure of healthy cells to high energy β-particles can be avoided. Moreover, there is no leakage of radioactive material after neutron activation, which is critical for safe handling by healthcare professionals treating skin cancer patients.
