Abdelhamid HN. An introductory review on advanced multifunctional materials. Heliyon 2023; 9:e18060. [PMID: 37496901 PMCID: PMC10366438 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e18060] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2023] [Revised: 07/04/2023] [Accepted: 07/05/2023] [Indexed: 07/28/2023] Open
Abstract
This review summarizes the applications of some of the advanced materials. It included the synthesis of several nanoparticles such as metal oxide nanoparticles (e.g., Fe3O4, ZnO, ZrOSO4, MoO3-x, CuO, AgFeO2, Co3O4, CeO2, SiO2, and CuFeO2); metal hydroxide nanosheets (e.g., Zn5(OH)8(NO3)2·2H2O, Zn(OH)(NO3)·H2O, and Zn5(OH)8(NO3)2); metallic nanoparticles (Ag, Au, Pd, and Pt); carbon-based nanomaterials (graphene, graphene oxide (GO), graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4), and carbon dots (CDs)); biopolymers (cellulose, nanocellulose, TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibers (TOCNFs), and chitosan); organic polymers (e.g. covalent-organic frameworks (COFs)); and hybrid materials (e.g. metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)). Most of these materials were applied in several fields such as environmental-based technologies (e.g., water remediation, air purification, gas storage), energy (production of hydrogen, dimethyl ether, solar cells, and supercapacitors), and biomedical sectors (sensing, biosensing, cancer therapy, and drug delivery). They can be used as efficient adsorbents and catalysts to remove emerging contaminants e.g., inorganic (i.e., heavy metals) and organic (e.g., dyes, antibiotics, pesticides, and oils in water via adsorption. They can be also used as catalysts for catalytic degradation reactions such as redox reactions of pollutants. They can be used as filters for air purification by capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). They can be used for hydrogen production via water splitting, alcohol oxidation, and hydrolysis of NaBH4. Nanomedicine for some of these materials was also included being an effective agent as an antibacterial, nanocarrier for drug delivery, and probe for biosensing.

Abstract
The assay of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) plays a key role in the diagnosis of various diseases. Herein, folic acid functionalized molybdenum oxide quantum dots (FA-MoOx QDs) are explored as fluorescence "turn- off and on" probes for assaying of Cu2+ ion and ALP, respectively. This fluorescence sensing strategy was based on the quenching of emission peak of FA-MoOx QDs at 445 nm by Cu2+ ion, followed by restoring of emission peak selectively with ALP. Based on the quenching and restoring of FA-MoOx QDs emission intensity, quantitative assay was developed for the detection of Cu2+ ion (0.20 - 500 µM) and ALP (0.06 - 150 U/L) with detection limits of 29 nM and 0.026 U/L, respectively. The developed FA-MoOx QDs-based fluorescence "turn- off and on" strategy exhibited satisfactory results for assaying of ALP in biofluids.

Abstract
Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) are a promising non-viral vector for gene and drug delivery. CPPs exhibit high cell transfection, and are biocompatible. They can be also conjugated with organic and inorganic nanomaterials, such as magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), graphene oxide (GO), metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), and chitosan. Nanomaterials offered a high specific surface area and provided relatively straightforward methods to be modified with biomolecules including CPPs and oligonucleotides (ONs). Novel nanomaterials conjugates with CPP/ONs complexes are therefore of interest for cell transfection with high efficiency. In this chapter, we described a summary of the non-viral vectors consisting of CPPs and nanomaterials. The book chapter also included a protocol to generate hybrid biomaterials consisting of CPPs and nanoparticles (NPs) for the delivery of oligonucleotides. The conjugation of NPs with CPPs serves as an effective platform for gene therapy with high cell transfection efficiency. The protocol is simple, offers high cell transfection compared to the CPPs-ONs complexes, and can be used for further improvements using external stimuli.

Abstract
Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is usually used as a label enzyme in immunoassay so the method used for HRP detection in enzyme immunoassay (EIA) plays a key role in sensitivity and precision. The catalytic activity of HRP does not strictly follow classic Michaelis-Menten kinetics, probably due to the inactivation of the enzyme at high concentrations of H2O2. In this paper, a highly sensitive alternative procedure for the HRP assay using H2O2-sensitive CdTe quantum dots as a chemiluminescence (CL) system is reported. This method can measure a much more accurate and reliable value of Km (187 mM H2O2) in comparison with the standard detection method. This system also was applied to thyroid hormone (T4) detection using HRP-based immunoassay. The QD/H2O2 system exhibits a higher linear range of 0.2-16 μg/dL with the improved LOD value of 0.06 μg/dL and selective response to T4, which was better than the commercial colorimetric immunoassay. Meanwhile, the proposed method has been successfully applied to the clinical determination of T4 in the serum samples, and the results confirmed an excellent correlation with the conventional ELISA method (R2 = 0.9832), indicating the potential applications of the method for clinical diagnosis as well.

Abstract
A sensitive method for diagnosing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is highly required to fight the current and future global health threats due to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV 2). However, most of the current methods exhibited high false‐negative rates, resulting in patient misdiagnosis and impeding early treatment. Nanoparticles show promising performance and great potential to serve as a platform for diagnosing viral infection in a short time and with high sensitivity. This review highlighted the potential of nanoparticles as platforms for the diagnosis of COVID-19. Nanoparticles such as gold nanoparticles, magnetic nanoparticles, and graphene (G) were applied to detect SARS-CoV 2. They have been used for molecular-based diagnosis methods and serological methods. Nanoparticles improved specificity and shorten the time required for the diagnosis. They may be implemented into small devices that facilitate the self-diagnosis at home or in places such as airports and shops. Nanoparticles-based methods can be used for the analysis of virus-contaminated samples from a patient, surface, and air. The advantages and challenges were discussed to introduce useful information for designing a sensitive, fast, and low-cost diagnostic method. This review aims to present a helpful survey for the lesson learned from handling this outbreak to prepare ourself for future pandemic.

Abstract
Background Since vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a significant regulator of cancer angiogenesis, it is essential to develop a technology for its sensitive detection. Herein, we sensitized a chemiluminescence (CL) immunoassay through the combination of H2O2-sensitive TGA-CdTe quantum dot (QD) as signal transduction, dextran as a cross-linker to prepare enzyme-labeled antigen and the ultrahigh bioactivity of catalase (CAT) as reporter enzyme. Results Under the optimized experimental conditions, the chemiluminescence enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (CL-ELISA) method can detect VEGF in the excellent linear range of 2–35,000 pg mL−1, with a detection limit (S/N = 3) of 0.5 pg mL−1 which was approximately ten times lower than the commercial colorimetric immunoassay. This proposed method has been successfully applied to the clinical determination of VEGF in the human serum samples, and the results illustrated an excellent correlation with the conventional ELISA method (R2 = 0.997). The suitable recovery rate of the method in the serum ranged from 97 to 107%, with a relative standard deviation of 1.2% to 13.4%. Conclusions The novel immunoassay proposes a highly sensitive, specific, and stable method for very low levels detection of VEGF that can be used in the primary diagnosis of tumors. With the well-designed sensing platform, this approach has a broad potential to be applied for quantitative analysis of numerous disease-related protein biomarkers for which antibodies are available.![]()

Abstract
Carbon dots (CDs) are a new cluster of carbon atoms with particle size less than 10 nm. CDs also exhibit interesting fluorescence (FL) properties. CDs are attractive because of their fascinating characteristics including low toxicity, good water solubility, and tremendous biocompatibility. Recently, CDs have been investigated as biosensors for numerous target analytes. Meanwhile, the utilization of cheap and renewable natural resources not only fulfills the pressing requirement for the large-scale synthesis of CDs but also encourages the establishment of sustainable applications. The preparation of CDs using natural resources, i.e., plants, offers several advantages as it is inexpensive, eco-friendly, and highly available in the surroundings. Plant parts are readily available natural resources as the starting materials to produce CDs with different characteristics and attractive applications. Several review articles are now available covering the synthesis, properties, and applications of CDs. However, there is no specific and focused review literature discussing plant part-derived CDs for biosensing applications. To handle this gap, we provide a review of the progress of CDs derived from various plant parts with their synthesis methods, optical properties, and biosensing applications in the last five years. We highlight the synthesis methods and then give an overview of their optical properties and applications as biosensors for various biomolecules and molecules in biological samples. Finally, we discuss some future perspectives for plant part-derived CDs for better material development and applications.

Abstract
Selective biosensing of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) using chitosan modified quantum dots (CTS@CdS QDs) in the presence of hydrogen peroxide is reported. The method is based on the intrinsic positive catalase activity of S. aureus. CTS@CdS quantum dots provide high dispersion in aqueous media with high fluorescence emission. Staphylococcus aureus causes a selective quenching of the fluorescence emission of CTS@CdS QDs in the presence of H2O2 compared to other pathogens such as Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The intrinsic enzymatic character of S. aureus (catalase positive) offers selective and fast biosensing. The present method is highly selective for positive catalase species and requires no expensive reagents such as antibodies, aptamers or microbeads. It could be extended for other species that are positive catalase.

Abstract
RATIONALE Investigation of nanoparticles for laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (LDI-MS) is routinely reported. However, the effect of surface capping of nanomaterials for LDI-MS is not well studied. METHODS Different capping agents of quantum dots (CdTe) affect the spectra quality and sensitivity of protein analysis and protein digestion using trypsin enzyme assisted by microwave. Surface modification of CdTe quantum dots with different capping agents, namely 3-mercaptopropionic acid (3-MPA), 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP), 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (4-MBA), 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (11-MUA), cysteine (Cys) and thioglycolic acid (TG), were investigated for quantum dots (QDs)-assisted trypsin protease followed by analysis using mass spectrometry. RESULTS CdTe QDs were used as a surface to assist trypsin protease and laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry, SALDI-MS). The MS profiles for the investigated analytes (bovine serum albumin (BSA), lysozyme, cytochrome c, α-casein, transferrin and myoglobin) revealed almost the absence of degradation that implies the softness of the present technique. QDs-assisted LDI-MS offered high sensitivity and high resolution. QDs showed significant enhancement of microwave-assisted trypsin digestion of the investigated proteins and these improvements boosted the identifications of fragments with a database. CONCLUSIONS A capping agent of quantum dots affects the analysis of proteins and peptides using LDI-MS. CdTe QDs offer sensitive, high-resolution and simple analysis of proteins. QDs improved the protein digestion using the microwave-assisted trypsin digestion. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
