Abstract
In the line of our previous studies, we have reported a developed sensitive and selective probe for cyanide detection based on Ag/Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) with an extremely low limit of detection at the level of ng per milliliter. Herein, we report the improvement of the easy-to-make magnetic silver nanoparticle-based sensor system for cyanide determination in an extended calibration range with higher selectivity and precision. As far as our knowledge is concerned, the detectable linear range from 1.0 nM to 160 μM (0.026 ng mL-1 to 4.16 μg mL-1) of the improved simple highly precise technique represents the widest assay that has been reported so far. The method is based on strong enhancement of scattered light of the plasmonic nanoparticles and simultaneously cyanide fluorescence quenching. Although the fluorescence of cyanide is highly selective and precise, its intensity is poor. On the other hand, the strongly enhanced Rayleigh signal has a low repeatability. We proposed a method to remove the interference and obtained an effective factor that is directly proportional to cyanide concentration utilizing both above signals simultaneously. In this work, Ag/Fe3O4 NPs have been synthesized easily using a green preparation method and the NPs were consequently characterized using powder XRD, UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). A combination of absorption, Rayleigh and fluorescence characteristics were used for detection of cyanide in real samples and an overview of recently reported sensors for cyanide was also provided.

[PMID: 37656303 DOI: 10.1007/s10895-023-03407-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2023] [Accepted: 08/16/2023] [Indexed: 09/02/2023]
Abstract
A simple and low-cost green preparation method was used for BSA capped silver nanoclusters (BSA-Ag NCs) as turn on fluorescent probe for glucose. Non-enzymatic fast glucose detection assay with a widest concentration range was proposed which requires neither nanoclusters (NCs) modification nor complicated enzyme immobilization. The DLS analysis, HRTEM patterns, fluorescence and UV-visible measurement well supported the synthesis product. The advantages of the fabricated glucose sensor based on fluorescence increasing of probe compared to other established optical techniques was inspected and summarized as well. The glucose sensor exhibited a high sensitivity, fast response time (in seconds), satisfactory selectivity, well stability (at least two months), low detection limit (31 µmol L- 1) and a wide concentration response (three orders of magnitudes) to glucose between 0.1 and 92 mmol L- 1 as calibration plot. A theoretical model of the sensing mechanism based on the binding interaction of glucose to BSA-Ag NCs is proposed and data fitting demonstrated a good agreement between the experimental and theoretically calculated fluorescence data. The facile preparation and excellent sensing performance of BSA-Ag NCs in the real samples (plasma and juice) make sure that synthesized probe material is a promising candidate for advanced enzyme-free glucose sensing approach.

Abstract
Water toxicity, one of the major concerns for ecosystems and the health of humanity, is usually attributed to inorganic anions-induced contamination. Particularly, cyanide ions are considered one of the most harmful elements required to be monitored in water. The need for cyanide sensing and monitoring has tempted the development of sensing technologies without highly sophisticated instruments or highly skilled operations for the objective of in-situ monitoring. Recent decades have witnessed the growth of noble metal nanomaterials-based sensors for detecting cyanide ions quantitatively as nanoscience and nanotechnologies advance to allow nanoscale-inherent physicochemical properties to be exploited for sensing performance. Particularly, noble metal nanostructure e-based optical sensors have permitted cyanide ions of nanomolar levels, or even lower, to be detectable. This capability lends itself to analytical application in the quantitative detection of harmful elements in environmental water samples. This review covers the noble metal nanomaterials-based sensors for cyanide ions detection developed in a variety of approaches, such as those based on colorimetry, fluorescence, Rayleigh scattering (RS), and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). Additionally, major challenges associated with these nano-platforms are also addressed, while future perspectives are given with directions towards resolving these issues.

PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2022; 272:121025. [PMID: 35184030 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2022.121025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2022] [Revised: 02/02/2022] [Accepted: 02/08/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Polyol synthesis of silver nanocubes (Ag NCs) under dark conditions yielded nanoparticles with high uniformity and purity, as well as edge lengths of 42 nm with good stability and scattering cross-section. These nanoparticles were characterized by SEM, TEM, and Uv-vis spectroscopy. The presence of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as a capping agent on the surface of Ag NCs, as well as its satisfactory interaction level with Haloperidol (Hp) as an antipsychotic drug, has led to the use of these nanoparticles as Resonance RayleighScattering (RRS) probe to measure Hp. Indeed, Hp resulted in reducing the RRS signal of Ag NCs, and this change in RRS intensity was linear in the range of 10.0 to 800.0 µg L-1 of Hp. The limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) were found to be 1.5 and 5.0 µg L-1, respectively. The influence of interfering species was studied, and it was found that the suggested method has good selectivity and can be used to monitor Hp in actual samples. As a result, this RRS probe operated well in determining Hp in pharmaceutical and human plasma samples with satisfactory recovery.

ACS OMEGA 2022; 7:1318-1328. [PMID: 35036793 PMCID: PMC8757454 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.1c05946] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2021] [Accepted: 12/14/2021] [Indexed: 05/14/2023]
Abstract
Rosmarinic acid-capped silver nanoparticles (Ro-AgNPs) were prepared and applied as a probe for selective colorimetric detection of cyanide (CN-) and chromium(VI) [Cr(VI)] under different conditions in aqueous media. The carbon atom of CN- interacts with the AgNPs, and the carbon atom donates electrons from the HOMO to the vacant orbitals of the coordinatively unsaturated surface atom (Ag0). After donating electrons, CN- attached onto the surface of the nanoparticles becomes very reactive and interacts with dissolved oxygen and generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as superoxide (O2 -), singlet oxygen (1O2), and so forth. In this process, Ag0 oxidizes to Ag+ and combines with CN- forming water-insoluble AgCN, and the ROS (O2 -) formed reacts with Ag/Ag+ to form Ag2O. The oxidation of Ag0 to Ag+ resulted in dissolution of AgNPs, which causes disappearance of the surface plasmon resonance band and color change from yellow to colorless. For detection of Cr(VI), ascorbic acid and CN- were added first; the ascorbic acid replaced the rosmarinic acid and then reduced the added Cr(VI) to Cr(III), and, in this process, ascorbic acid was oxidized to dehydroascorbic acid, which moved away from the nanoparticles' surface. CN- then interacted with the surface Ag0 atom, got activated, and interacted with dissolved oxygen forming Ag+ and ROS, which then followed the same process as described for CN- to form AgCN and Ag2O with a color change. The limits of detection were found to be 0.01 and 0.03 μM for CN- and Cr(VI), respectively. The material was also used for sensing CN- and Cr(VI) in real samples, and the results obtained were satisfactory. For field application, agarose-based strips were prepared by immobilizing the nanoparticles onto the agarose film and successfully used for the detection of CN- and Cr(VI) in water.

Abstract
Abstract
Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles were obtained in the polyethylene glycol environment. An effect of precipitation and drying temperatures on the size of the prepared nanoparticles was observed. Superparamagnetic iron oxide Fe3O4, around of 15 nm, was obtained at a precipitation temperature of 80°C and a drying temperature of 60°C. The presence of functional groups characteristic for a polyethylene glycol surfactant on the surface of nanoparticles was confirmed by FTIR and XPS measurements. Silver nanoparticles were introduced by the impregnation. Fe3O4-Ag nanostructure with bactericidal properties against Escherichia coli species was produced. Interesting magnetic properties of these materials may be helpful to separate the bactericidal agent from the solution.
