Abstract
Developing an environment-friendly preparation method for silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) composite is significant. However, it remains challenges in size adjustment and content improvement of AgNPs. Here, the NaIO4 oxidation and TEMPO-mediated oxidation were applied to bagasse pulp to prepare nanocellulose (NC) with both carboxyl and aldehyde groups. The aldehyde content of NC could be adjusted in the range of 0.21-1.45 mmol/g by different NaIO4 oxidation times. When the carboxyl groups were protonated, NC with a high length-diameter ratio could construct stable hydrogels in a low concentration at 0.5 wt%. The NC hydrogels showed excellent in situ synthesis ability of AgNPs with abundant pore structure. By regulating the carboxyl group content of NC, the size distribution of synthesized AgNPs could be controlled in the range of 7.14-28.6 nm with high content of 6.79-11.0 %. The NC/AgNPs composite hydrogel exhibited high catalytic degradation activity for 4-nitrophenol and antibacterial activity. This approach for constructing NC hydrogel paves the way for AgNPs composite products with adjustable sizes and high contents.

Abstract
The concept of nanoparticle-mediated electron transfer (eT) across insulating thin films was elucidated theoretically by Allongue and Chazalviel in 2011. In their model, metal nanoparticles (NPs) are immobilized atop passivating, self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). They found that under certain conditions, related to the thickness of the SAM and the size of the NPs, efficient faradaic oxidation and reduction reactions could proceed at the NP surface. In the absence of NPs, however, eT was suppressed by the insulating SAM thin films. Allongue and Chazalviel concluded that, within certain bounds, eT is mediated by fast tunneling between the conductive electrode and the metal NPs, while the kinetics of the redox reaction are controlled by the NPs. This understanding has been confirmed using a variety of experimental models. The theory is based on electron tunneling; therefore, the nature of the intervening medium (the insulator in prior studies) should not affect the eT rate. In the present manuscript, however, we show that the theory breaks down under certain electrochemical conditions when the medium between conductors is an n-type semiconductor. Specifically, we find that in the presence of either Au or Pt NPs immobilized on a thin film of TiOx, CO electrooxidation does not proceed. In contrast, the exact same systems lead to the efficient reduction of oxygen. At present, we are unable to explain this finding within the context of the model of Allongue and Chazalviel.

Abstract
Here, we report three-dimensional (3-D) visualization of dendrimer-encapsulated Pt nanoparticles (Pt DENs) by using 3-D electron tomography to reveal intricate structural characteristics of their whole organic-inorganic hybrid nanostructure. We reconstructed the 3-D spatial volume of Pt DENs by back-projecting a tilt series of two-dimensional (2-D) projections of Pt nanoparticles encapsulated inside dendrimers negatively stained with uranyl acetate. The direct 3-D visualization of Pt DENs elucidated their encapsulation characteristics with the spatial imaging of Pt nanoparticles embraced inside dendrimers in three dimensions. The encapsulation characteristics of Pt DENs were further verified with selective electrochemical poisoning experiments. In addition, quantitative 3-D structural characterization of Pt DENs provided more accurate and precise size distributions of nanoparticles than those obtained from conventional 2-D transmission electron microscopy analysis relying only on a 3-D structure projected on a 2-D plane.

Abstract
Here we report on hydride-terminated (HT) electrodeposition of Pt multilayers onto ∼1.6 nm Au nanoparticles (NPs). The results build on our earlier findings regarding electrodeposition of a single monolayer of Pt onto Au NPs and reports relating to HT Pt electrodeposition onto bulk Au. In the latter case, it was found that electrodeposition of Pt from a solution containing PtCl42- can be limited to a single monolayer of Pt atoms if it is immediately followed by adsorption of a monolayer of H atoms. The H-atom capping layer prevents deposition of Pt multilayers. In the present report we are interested in comparing the structure of NPs after multiple HT Pt electrodeposition cycles to the bulk analog. The results indicate that a greater number of HT Pt cycles are required to electrodeposit both a single Pt monolayer and Pt multilayers onto these Au NPs compared to bulk Au. Additionally, detailed structural analysis shows that there are fundamental differences in the structures of the AuPt materials depending on whether they are prepared on Au NPs or bulk Au. The resulting structures have a profound impact on formic acid oxidation electrocatalysis.

Abstract
A small water-soluble phosphorus-containing dendrimer was engineered for the complexation of gold(I) and for its reduction under mild conditions. Gold nanoparticles were obtained as colloidal suspensions simply and only when the powdered form of this dendrimer was dissolved in water, as shown by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) analyses. The dendrimers acted simultaneously as mild reducers and as nanoreactors, favoring the self-assembly of gold atoms and promoting the growth and stabilization of isolated gold nanoparticles. Thus, an unprecedented method for the synthesis of colloidal suspensions of water-soluble gold nanoparticles was proposed in this work.

An ultrasensitive photoelectrochemical platform for quantifying photoinduced electron-transfer properties of a single entity. Nat Protoc 2019; 14:2672-2690.

Abstract
Understanding the photoinduced electron-transfer process is of paramount importance for realizing efficient solar energy conversion. It is rather difficult to clarify the link between the specific properties and the photoelectrochemical performance of an individual component in an ensemble system because data are usually presented as averages because of interplay of the heterogeneity of the bulk system. Here, we report a step-by-step protocol to fabricate an ultrasensitive photoelectrochemical platform for real-time detection of the intrinsic photoelectrochemical behaviors of a single entity with picoampere and sub-millisecond sensitivity. Using a micron-thickness nanoparticulate TiO2-filmed Au ultramicroelectrode (UME) as the electron-transport electrode, photocurrent transients can be observed for each individual dye-tagged oxide semiconductor nanoparticle collision associated with a single-entity photoelectrochemical reaction. This protocol allows researchers to obtain high-resolution photocurrent signals to quantify the photoinduced electron-transfer properties of an individual entity, as well as to precisely process the data obtained. We also include procedures for dynamic light scattering (DLS) analysis, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) imaging and collision frequency-concentration correlation to confirm that the photoelectrochemical collision events occur at an unambiguously single-entity level. The time required for the entire protocol is ~36 h, with a single-entity photoelectrochemical measurement taking <1 h to complete for each independent experiment. This protocol requires basic nanoelectrochemistry and nanotechnology skills, as well as an intermediate-level understanding of photoelectrochemistry.

Abstract
We study electron transfer associated with electrocatalytic reduction of hydrogen on single platinum nanoparticles separated from an electrode surface with an alkanethiol monolayer using a plasmonic imaging technique. By varying the monolayer thickness, we show that the reaction rate depends on electron tunneling from the electrode to the nanoparticle. The tunneling decay constant is ∼4.3 nm-1, which is small compared to those in literature for alkanethiols. We attribute it to a reduced tunneling barrier resulting from biasing the electrode potential negatively to the hydrogen reduction regime. In addition to allowing study of electron transfer of single nanoparticles, the work demonstrates an optical method to measure charge transport in molecules electrically wired to two electrodes.

Abstract
Metal-nanoparticle-mediated electron transfer (ET) across an insulator thin film containing nanoparticles with attached redox centers was studied using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Specifically, a gold spherical microelectrode was modified with 16-amino-1-hexa-decanethiol, creating an insulator film. This was followed by the electrostatic adsorption of gold nanoparticles and the covalent attachment of Os2+ redox centers. A variation of the Creager-Wooster method was developed to get quantitative information regarding the ET kinetics of the system. The experimental data obtained from a single measurement was fitted with a model that decouples two or more ET processes with different time constants and considers a Gaussian distribution of tunneling distances. Two parallel ET mechanisms were observed: one in which the electrons flow by tunneling between the surface and the redox couples with a low kET0 = 1.3 s-1 and a second one in which an enhancement of the electron transfer is produced due to the presence of the gold nanoparticles with a kET0 = 7 × 104 s-1. In this study, we demonstrate that the gold nanoparticle electron transfer enhancement is present only in the local environment of the nanoparticle, showing that the nanoscale architecture is crucial to maximize the enhancement effect.

Abstract
Single modal enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) covering colorimetric, fluorescence, and chemiluminescence techniques has been widely reported in recent years, whereas the combination of multiple signal channels in one immunosensing platform still faces huge challenges. Multimodal imaging will provide more comprehensive and precise diagnostic information by the combination of two or more imaging modalities. Inspired by this concept, we established a new kind of multimodal enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (M-ELISA) based on the unique properties of Au@Pt nanodendrites. As a proof-of-concept demonstration, cardiac troponin I (cTnI) has been chosen as a model biomarker. Owing to the excellent photothermal effect and intrinsic peroxidase-like activity of Au@Pt nanodendrites, the concentration of cTnI can be quantificationally reflected by photothermal immunoassay, colorimetric immunoassay and ratiometric fluorescence immunoassay simultaneously. This developed M-ELISA demonstrated the good consistency with the chemiluminescence immunoassay method in clinical diagnosis for real serum samples.

Abstract
Amphiphilic cellulose derivatives were synthesized from allyl cellulose (AC) and cystein (Cys)/n-dodecyl mercaptan (NDM) via the thiol-ene click reactions. The derivatives were self-assembled into micelles in distilled water, and the micelles sizes increased with an increase of the DSNDM. The amphiphilic cellulose micelles were served as the soft templates for the controllable synthesis of Ag nanoparticles (NPs) through the photo-reduction. Ag NPs were embedded and stabilized by the amphiphilic cellulose micelles, and their sizes increased from 3.1 to 14.4 nm with an increase of the original template sizes. The catalytic properties of the Ag-loaded micelles were evaluated by the reduction of p-nitropheonl to p-aminophenol. The results demonstrated that the Ag-loaded micelles exhibited excellent catalytic activity. The reduction followed the first-order rate law, and the reaction constant decreased with increasing size of Ag NPs. Moreover, the Ag-loaded micelles displayed good antimicrobial activities to both S. aureus and E. coli. Therefore, the Ag-loaded cellulose-based micelles have potential applications in various fields.

Abstract
Redox electrocatalysis (catalysis of electron-transfer reactions by floating conductive particles) is discussed from the point-of-view of Fermi level equilibration, and an overall theoretical framework is given. Examples of redox electrocatalysis in solution, in bipolar configuration, and at liquid-liquid interfaces are provided, highlighting that bipolar and liquid-liquid interfacial systems allow the study of the electrocatalytic properties of particles without effects from the support, but only liquid-liquid interfaces allow measurement of the electrocatalytic current directly. Additionally, photoinduced redox electrocatalysis will be of interest, for example, to achieve water splitting.

Abstract
We report that ultraviolet/ozone (UV/O3) treatment can be used to remove sixth-generation, hydroxyl-terminated poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers from dendrimer-encapsulated Pt nanoparticles (Pt DENs) previously immobilized onto a pyrolyzed photoresist film (PPF) electrode. Results from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning transmission electron microscopy, and electrochemical experiments indicate that removal of the dendrimer proceeds without changes to the size, shape, or electrocatalytic properties of the encapsulated nanoparticles. The UV/O3 treatment did not damage the PPF electrode. The electrocatalytic properties of the DENs before and after removal of the dendrimer were nearly identical.
