Abstract
Early-stage detection and diagnosis of diseases is essential to the prompt commencement of treatment regimens, curbing the spread of the disease, and improving human health. Thus, the accurate detection of disease biomarkers through the development of robust, sensitive, and selective diagnostic tools has remained cutting-edge scientific research for decades. Due to their merits of being selective, stable, simple, and having a low preparation cost, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are increasingly becoming artificial substitutes for natural receptors in the design of state-of-the-art sensing devices. While there are different MIP preparation approaches, electrochemical synthesis presents a unique and outstanding method for chemical sensing applications, allowing the direct formation of the polymer on the transducer as well as simplicity in tuning the film properties, thus accelerating the trend in the design of commercial MIP-based sensors. This review evaluates recent achievements in the applications of electrosynthesized MIP sensors for clinical analysis of disease biomarkers, identifying major trends and highlighting interesting perspectives on the realization of commercial MIP-endowed testing devices for rapid determination of prevailing diseases.

CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 315:137711. [PMID: 36608894 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2022.137711] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2022] [Revised: 12/16/2022] [Accepted: 12/29/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
The cupric oxide (CuO) loaded graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) nanocomposites (CuO/g-C3N4) were prepared by a facile calcination method. The formation of monoclinic CuO nanocrystals along with g-C3N4 was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic analysis. X-ray photoelectron spectral (XPS) analysis further confirms the formation of CuO/g-C3N4. Distribution of CuO stone-like crystalline nanoparticles on g-C3N4 nanosheets was observed by transmission electron microscopic images. The influence of CuO loading on the optical property of g-C3N4 was determined by ultraviolet (UV)-visible absorption and photoluminescence (PL) spectral analysis. Band gap was decreased from 2.7 to 2.3 eV by the addition of CuO nanoparticles. The catalytic performance of the synthesized samples in 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) and methyl orange (MO) reduction was evaluated. The 5 wt% CuO/g-C3N4 showed 99.5% (7 min) and 99.7% (4 min) reduction efficiency for 4-NP and MO respectively. The 5 wt% CuO/g-C3N4 could become a potential catalyst in the chemical treatment of organic pollutants.

Abstract
The charge transfer and visible-light absorption capacities of stable materials are crucial in several applications, such as catalysis, absorption, sensors, and bioremediation. Copper-silver-zinc oxide nanocomposites (NCs) were synthesized using PVA as a capping agent and urea as a stabilizing agent. DTG analysis confirmed 500 °C was the optimum temperature for the total decomposition of PVA after capping the nanoparticles (NPs) to yield a pure composite. The XRD analysis showed the presence of copper inclusions in the ZnO lattice and the formation of Ag and CuO heterojunctions with ZnO. The photoluminescence (PL) analysis confirmed the more significant visible light absorption and charge transfer properties of the composite compared to those of single ZnO NPs. Foam-type porosity occurred during gas evolution at many of the points shown in the SEM/TEM images. Slight lattice fringe differences between the composite and ZnO NPs due to copper inclusion were confirmed from the HRTEM image and XRD pattern analysis. The crystallinity of the NPs and NCs was confirmed by the XRD pattern and SAED analysis. The diffusion-controlled charge transfer process was witnessed through CV electrochemical analysis. Thus, the energy- and time-efficient solution combustion synthesis (SCS) approach has a crucial future outlook, specifically for an industrial, scalable application. The NCs demonstrated more potential than ZnO NPs in an organic catalytic reduction reaction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol.

Solar light induced photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline in the presence of ZnO/NiFe2O4/Co3O4 as a new and highly efficient magnetically separable photocatalyst. Front Chem 2022; 10:1013349. [PMID: 36311420 PMCID: PMC9606596 DOI: 10.3389/fchem.2022.1013349] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2022] [Accepted: 09/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
In this study, a new solar light-driven magnetic heterogeneous photocatalyst, denoted as ZnO/NiFe2O4/Co3O4, is successfully prepared. FT-IR, XPS, XRD, VSM, DRS, FESEM, TEM, EDS, elemental mapping, and ICP analysis are accomplished for full characterization of this catalyst. FESEM and TEM analyses of the photocatalyt clearly affirm the formation of a hexagonal structure of ZnO (25–40 nm) and the cubic structure of NiFe2O4 and Co3O4 (10–25 nm). Furthermore, the HRTEM images of the photocatalyst verify some key lattice fringes related to the photocatalyt structure. These data are in very good agreement with XRD analysis results. According to the ICP analysis, the molar ratio of ZnO/NiFe2O4/Co3O4 composite is obtained to be 1:0.75:0.5. Moreover, magnetization measurements reveals that the ZnO/NiFe2O4/Co3O4 has a superparamagnetic behavior with saturation magnetization of 32.38 emu/g. UV-vis DRS analysis indicates that the photocatalyst has a boosted and strong light response. ZnO/NiFe2O4/Co3O4, with band gap energy of about 2.65 eV [estimated according to the Tauc plot of (αhν)2vs. hν], exhibits strong potential towards the efficacious degradation of tetracycline (TC) by natural solar light. It is supposed that the synergistic optical effects between ZnO, NiFe2O4, and Co3O4 species is responsible for the increased photocatalytic performance of this photocatalyst under the optimal conditions (photocatalyst dosage = 0.02 g L−1, TC concentration = 30 mg L−1, pH = 9, irradiation time = 20 min, and TC degradation efficiency = 98%). The kinetic study of this degradation process is evaluated and it is well-matched with the pseudo-first-order kinetics. Based on the radical quenching tests, it can be perceived that •O2− species and holes are the major contributors in such a process, whereas the •OH radicals identify to have no major participation. The application of this methodology is implemented in a facile and low-cost photocatalytic approach to easily degrade TC by using a very low amount of the photocatalyst under natural sunlight source in an air atmosphere. The convenient magnetic isolation and reuse of the photocatalyst, and almost complete mineralization of TC (based on TOC analysis), are surveyed too, which further highlights the operational application of the current method. Notably, this method has the preferred performance among the very few methods reported for the photocatalytic degradation of TC under natural sunlight. It is assumed that the achievements of this photocatalytic method have opened an avenue for sustainable environmental remediation of a broad range of contaminants.

Effectiveness of a novel polyaniline@Fe-ZSM-5 hybrid composite for Orange G dye removal from aqueous media: Experimental study and advanced statistical physics insights. CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 295:133786.

Abstract
A polyaniline@Fe-ZSM-5 composite was synthesized via an in situ interfacial polymerization procedure. The morphology, crystallinity, and structural features of the as-developed PANI@Fe-ZSM-5 composite were assessed using scanning electron microscopy - energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The composite was efficiently employed for the first time as an adsorbent Orange G (OG) dyestuff from water. The OG dye adsorption performance was investigated as a function of several operating conditions. The kinetic study demonstrated that a pseudo-second-order model was appropriate to anticipate the OG adsorption process. The maximum adsorption capacity was found to be 217 mg/g. The adsorption equilibrium data at different temperatures were calculated via advanced statistical physics formalism. The entropy function indicated that the disorder of OG molecules improved at low concentrations and lessened at high concentrations. The free enthalpy and internal energy functions suggested that the OG adsorption was a spontaneous process and physisorption in nature. Regeneration investigation showed that the PANI@Fe-ZSM-5 could be effectively reused up to five cycles. The main results of this work provided a deep insight on the experimental study supported by advanced statistical physics prediction for the adsorption of Orange G dye onto the novel polyaniline@Fe-ZSM-5 hybrid composite. Additionally, the experimental and advanced statistical physics findings stated in this study may arouse research interest in the field of wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Water electrolysis is one of the most capable processes for supplying clean fuel. Herein, two novel ionic Ru(II)-Fe(II) complexes, [Ru(tmphen)3]2[Fe(CN)6] and [Ru(phen)3][Fe(CN)5(NO)], where tmphen = 3,4,7,8-tetramethyl-1,10-phenanthroline and phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, were synthesized and characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, elemental analysis, FT-IR, and single-crystal X-ray structural analysis. By thermally decomposing the [Ru(tmphen)3]2[Fe(CN)6] complex at 600 °C for 4 h, a heterostructured RuO2-Fe2O3 nanocomposite was fabricated through a facile one-pot treatment and then characterized by FT-IR, XRD, FT-Raman, UV-Vis (DRS), ICP-OES, FE-SEM, TEM, TGA/DTG, BET, and XPS analyses, which revealed the formation of highly crystalline RuO2-Fe2O3 nanoparticles with an average size of 8-12 nm. The prepared nanocomposite was an efficient heterostructured electrocatalyst for performing water-splitting redox reaction processes, including hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions (HER and OER) in alkaline solutions. In this regard, RuO2 and Fe2O3 samples were also prepared through thermal decomposition of [Ru(tmphen)3](NO3)2 and K4[Fe(CN)6] precursors, respectively, as control experiments to compare their HER and OER electrocatalytic activity with that of the RuO2-Fe2O3 nanocomposite. Specifically, the RuO2-Fe2O3 nanocomposite exhibited significant electrocatalytic performance, generating 10 mA cm-2 current density at -148 and 292 mV overpotentials, and the Tafel slope results from fitting the LSV curves to the Tafel equation were -43 and 56.08 mV dec-1 for the HER and OER, respectively. Therefore, the heterostructured RuO2-Fe2O3 nanocomposite can be viewed as a bi-functional electrocatalyst for HER and OER because it exploits the synergistic effects of heterostructures and active sites at its interface.

Abstract
Fe3+-TiO2 (Fe-TiO2) thin films were successfully prepared using a "sandwich" approach. TiO2 NPs were doped with different Fe3+ content (0.05%, 0.1%, 0.2% molar ratio), and the modified TiO2 NPs were deposited on glass flat support by dip coating.Structural, morphological, optical, and photocatalytic properties of Fe-TiO2 thin films were studied. XPS spectra confirm the presence of Ti, Fe, O, and defective -OH groups at the material surface. The Fe 2p spectrum demonstrates the existence of Fe3+. SEM images indicate that the incorporation of Fe3+ deforms in some degree the homogeneity of the TiO2 system. Additionally, incorporation of Fe3+ ions to the network creates an impurity band near the VB due to the oxygen vacancies, resulting in the reduction of the effective optical band gap. Photocatalytic activity of fabricated thin films in the elimination of sulfamethoxazole (SMT) follows pseudo first-order kinetics. The highest SMT removal yields were achieved using the sample with 0.05%Fe. Additionally, the use of greater thicknesses improves the removal performance. However, material detachment limits the maximum usable value around 6 µm.Finally, stability and reusability of catalysts were confirmed studying the photocatalytic activity over three cycles and evaluating that no Fe3+ leaching occurred.

Abstract
Iron manganese oxide resources are widely derived from the geological structure, and their combinations play an important role in the migration and transformation of arsenic. Iron oxide and manganese oxide exist generally in a mixed state in Fe-Mn oxides synthesized via the well studied co-precipitation methods using potassium permanganate and manganese/iron sulfates. Herein, a newly designed Fe-Mn-O compositing oxide with Fe-MnO2, Mn-Fe2O3, (Fe0.67Mn0.33)OOH solid solution and FeOOH as the main components, simply through solvent-free mechanical ball milling pyrolusite (MnO2) and ferrihydrite (FeOOH) together has been reported. Atomic-scale integrations by doping Fe and Mn with each other were detected and an adsorption-oxidation bifunctionality was achieved, where Fe-doped MnO2 served as oxidizer for As(III) and amorphous/ground FeOOH acted as adsorbent first for As(III) and then As(V) from the oxidization. The maximal adsorption for As(III) could reach 44.99 mg/g and over 82.5% of As(III) was converted to As(V). More importantly, high removal ability of arsenic worked in a wide pH range of 2-10.5%, and 87.2% of its initial adsorption-oxidation capacity could be kept even after 5-cycles reuse for treating 20 mg/L As(III) with a dosage at 1 g/L. Together with the enhanced adsorption capacity by the milled FeOOH, surface electron transfer efficiency of the developed Fe-MnO2 surrounded with Mn-Fe2O3 has been studied for the first time to understand the oxidization effect to As(V). Besides the environment-friendliness of ball milling method, the prepared sample is quite stable without noticeable metal release into solution. Mechanism studies of arsenic removal by the as-prepared Fe-Mn-O oxide provide a new direction for improving the oxidation efficiency of MnO2 to As(III) based on the widely available cheap Mn and Fe oxides, contributing to the development of advanced oxidization process in the treatment of waste water.

Abstract
Integration between conventional semiconductors and porous materials can enhance electron–hole separation, improving photocatalytic activity. Here, we introduce a heterostructure that was successfully constructed between vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) and mesoporous SBA-15 using inexpensive halloysite clay as the silica–aluminium source. The composite material with 40% doped V2O5 shows excellent catalytic performance in the oxidative desulphurisation of dibenzothiophene (conversion of 99% with only a minor change after four-cycle tests). These results suggest the development of new catalysts made from widely available natural minerals that show high stability and can operate in natural light to produce fuel oils with ultra-low sulphur content. New and robust catalysts made from natural minerals that can operate in sunlight to produce fuel oils with ultra-low-sulphur content.![]()

Abstract
The catalytic ozonation treatment of secondary biochemical effluent for papermaking wastewater by Ag-doped nickel ferrite was investigated. Ag-doped catalysts prepared by sol-gel method were characterized, illustrating that Ag entirely entered the crystalline of NiFe2O4 and changed the surface properties. The addition of catalyst enhanced the removal efficiency of chemical oxygen demand and total organic carbon. The results of gas chromatography-mass spectrometer, ultraviolet light absorbance at 254 nm and three-dimensional fluorescence excitation-emission matrix suggested that aromatic compounds were efficiently degraded and toxic substances, such as dibutyl phthalate. In addition, the radical scavenging experiments confirmed the hydroxyl radicals acted as the main reactive oxygen species and the surface properties of catalysts played an important role in the reaction. Overall, this work validated potential applications of Ag-doped NiFe2O4 catalyzed ozonation process of biologically recalcitrant wastewater.

Abstract
The Fe2O3-ZnO composite rods were successfully synthesized by combining hydrothermal growth of Fe2O3 rods and sputtering deposition of a thin ZnO coverage layer. Two types of the Fe2O3 rods with round and rectangular cross-sectional morphologies grown via control of the urea content in hydrothermal growth processes were used as rod templates to fabricate the Fe2O3-ZnO composite rods. The Fe2O3-ZnO composite rods exhibited an improved photoelectric conversion efficiency in the Fe2O3 rods via a construction of a heterogeneous structure. The photocatalytic degradation performance of rhodamine B dyes with Fe2O3 rods was substantially increased via sputtering decoration of a thin ZnO coverage layer on the Fe2O3 rods. Moreover, the Fe2O3-ZnO composite rods exhibited superior acetone vapor-sensing responses than the pristine Fe2O3 rods herein. The extended optical absorption ability together with the enhanced photoinduced charge separation efficiency via construction of the Fe2O3-ZnO heterogeneous system explained the improved photoactivity of the composite rods. Furthermore, the formation of a heterojunction between the Fe2O3 and ZnO increased the interfacial potential barrier height and enhanced the sensor resistance variation size upon exposure to the acetone vapor. This accounted for the improved gas-sensing performance of the Fe2O3-ZnO composite rods. The experimental results herein provide a promising approach to design Fe2O3-based composite rods with desirable photocatalytic and gas-sensing functionalities.

Abstract
Iron-based nanozymes are currently one of the few clinical inorganic nanoparticles for disease diagnosis and treatment. Overcoming the shortcomings of natural enzymes, such as easy inactivation and low yield, combined with their special nanometer properties and magnetic functions, iron-based nanozymes have broad prospects in biomedicine. This minireview summarizes their preparation, biological activity, catalytic mechanism, and applications in diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Finally, challenges to their future development and the trends of iron-based nanozymes are discussed. The purpose of this minireview is to better understand and reasonably speculate on the rational design of iron-based nanozymes as an increasingly important new paradigm for diagnostics.

Abstract
In this work, a new photocatalytic system consisting of iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs), coated with a catechol-flavin conjugate (DAFL), is synthesized and explored for use in water remediation. In order to test the efficiency of the catalyst, the photodegradation of amaranth (AMT), an azo dye water pollutant, was performed under aerobic and anaerobic conditions, using either ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) or 2-(N-morpholino)ethanesulfonic acid (MES) as electron donors. Depending on the conditions, either dye photoreduction or photooxidation were observed, indicating that flavin-coated iron-oxide nanoparticles can be used as a versatile enzyme-inspired photocatalysts.

Abstract
Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) have drawn considerable attention for their use in optical and sensor applications due to their appealing properties of chiral nematic photonic structures. However, the flexibility and water instability of neat CNC chiral nematic films are questionable and compromise their outstanding properties. We propose a room-temperature process for fabricating flexible, water-stable chiral nematic CNC films. Aqueous glutaraldehyde (GA) was first mixed with CNCs, and then free-standing films were formed by evaporation-induced self-assembly. The chiral nematic dry films that formed were then exposed to hydrochloric acid vapor for subsequent GA cross-linking with CNCs. The GA cross-linked CNC films had a highly ordered chiral nematic organization. The enhanced water stability of the films was demonstrated by using GA cross-linked CNC films as freestanding template substrates for conducting polymers (polypyrrole) and metal oxides (iron oxide) to form flexible chiral nematic photonic hybrids.

Abstract
Iron oxide nanoparticles (NPs) hold great promise for future biomedical applications because of their magnetic properties as well as other intrinsic properties such as low toxicity, colloidal stability, and surface engineering capability. Numerous related studies on iron oxide NPs have been conducted. Recent progress in nanochemistry has enabled fine control over the size, crystallinity, uniformity, and surface properties of iron oxide NPs. This review examines various synthetic approaches and surface engineering strategies for preparing naked and functional iron oxide NPs with different physicochemical properties. Growing interest in designed and surface-engineered iron oxide NPs with multifunctionalities was explored in in vitro/in vivo biomedical applications, focusing on their combined roles in bioseparation, as a biosensor, targeted-drug delivery, MR contrast agents, and magnetic fluid hyperthermia. This review outlines the limitations of extant surface engineering strategies and several developing strategies that may overcome these limitations. This study also details the promising future directions of this active research field.

Abstract
A nanocomposite platform built with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) via a noncovalent interaction between the large π systems in NAD(+) molecules and MWCNTs on a glassy carbon substrate was successfully developed for the sensitive and selective detection of uric acid (UA) in the presence of ascorbic acid (AA), dopamine (DA). NAD(+) has an adenine subunit and a nicotinamide subunit, which enabled interaction with the purine subunit of UA through a strong π-π interaction to enhance the specificity of UA. Compared with a bare glassy carbon electrode (GCE) and MWCNTs/GCE, the MWCNTs-NAD(+)/GCE showed a low background current and a remarkable enhancement of the oxidation peak current of UA. Using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), a high sensitivity for the determination of UA was explored for the MWCNTs-NAD(+) modified electrode. A linear relationship between the DPV peak current of UA and its concentration could be obtained in the range of 0.05 - 10 μM with the detection limit as low as 10 nM (S/N = 3). This present strategy provides a novel and promising platform for the detection of UA in human urine and serum samples.

Abstract
Three-dimensional nickel-iron (3-D/Ni-Fe) nanostructures are exciting candidates for various applications because they produce more reaction-active sites than 1-D and 2-D nanostructured materials and exhibit attractive optical, electrical and catalytic properties. In this work, freestanding 3-D/Ni-Fe interconnected hierarchical nanosheets, hierarchical nanospheres, and porous nanospheres are directly grown on a flexible carbon fiber paper (CFP) substrate by a single-step hydrothermal process. Among the nanostructures, 3-D/Ni-Fe interconnected hierarchical nanosheets show excellent electrochemical properties because of its high conductivity, large specific active surface area, and mesopores on its walls (vide infra). The 3-D/Ni-Fe hierarchical nanosheet array modified CFP substrate is further explored as a novel electrode for electrochemical non-enzymatic glucose sensor application. The 3-D/Ni-Fe hierarchical nanosheet arrays exhibit significant catalytic activity towards the electrochemical oxidation of glucose, as compared to the 3-D/Ni-Fe hierarchical nanospheres, and porous nanospheres. The 3-D/Ni-Fe hierarchical nanosheet arrays can access a large amount of glucose molecules on their surface (mesopore walls) for an efficient electrocatalytic oxidation process. Moreover, 3-D/Ni-Fe hierarchical nanosheet arrays showed higher sensitivity (7.90 μA μM(-1) cm(-2)) with wide linear glucose concentration ranging from 0.05 μM to 0.2 mM, and the low detection limit (LOD) of 0.031 μM (S/N = 3) is achieved by the amperometry method. Further, the 3-D/Ni-Fe hierarchical nanosheet array modified CFP electrode can be demonstrated to have excellent selectivity towards the detection of glucose in the presence of 500-fold excess of major important interferents. All these results indicate that 3-D/Ni-Fe hierarchical nanosheet arrays are promising candidates for non-enzymatic glucose sensing.
