Abstract
In this study, we applied the concept of the "contribution factor of the first kind (CFFK)" to the original electron-transfer (ET) rate theory proposed by Marcus. Mathematical derivations provided simple and convenient formulas for estimating the relative contributions of ten physical and chemical parameters involved in the Marcus ET rate formula: (1) the maximum strength of the electronic coupling energy between two molecules, (2) the exponential decay rate of the electronic coupling energy versus the distance between both molecules, (3) the distance between both molecules, (4) the equilibrium distance between both molecules, (5) the Gibbs free energy, (6) reorganization free energy in the prefactor of the Marcus ET rate equation, (7) reorganization free energy in the denominator of the exponential term, (8) reorganization free energy in the argument of the exponential term, (9) Boltzmann constant times absolute temperature in the prefactor of the rate equation, and (10) Boltzmann constant times absolute temperature in the denominator of the exponential term. We applied our theories to (i) ET reactions at bacterial photosynthesis reaction centers, PSI and PSII, and soluble ferredoxins (Fd); (ii) intraprotein ET reactions for designed azurin mutants; and (iii) ET reactions in flavodoxin (Fld). The formulas and calculations suggest that the theory behind the CFFK is useful for quantitatively identifying major and minor physical and chemical factors and corresponding trade-offs, all of which affect the magnitude of the Marcus ET rate.

Unveiling the effect of crystallinity and particle size of biogenic Ag/ZnO nanocomposites on the electrochemical sensing performance of carbaryl detection in agricultural products. RSC Adv 2023; 13:8753-8764. [PMID: 36936823 PMCID: PMC10016934 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra00399j] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2023] [Accepted: 03/10/2023] [Indexed: 03/17/2023] Open
Abstract
In this study, bio-Ag/ZnO NCs were synthesized via a microwave-assisted biogenic electrochemical method using mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana) peel extract as a biogenic reducing agent for the reduction of Zn2+ and Ag+ ions to form hybrid nanoparticles. The as-synthesized NC samples at three different microwave irradiation temperatures (Z 70, Z 80, Z 90) exhibited a remarkable difference in size and crystallinity that directly impacted their electrocatalytic behaviors as well as electrochemical sensing performance. The obtained results indicate that the Z 90 sample showed the highest electrochemical performance among the investigated samples, which is attributed to the improved particle size distribution and crystal microstructure that enhanced charge transfer and the electroactive surface area. Under the optimal conditions for carbaryl pesticide detection, the proposed nanosensor exhibited a high electrochemical sensitivity of up to 0.303 μA μM-1 cm-2 with a detection limit of LOD ∼0.27 μM for carbaryl pesticide detection in a linear range of 0.25-100 μM. Overall, the present work suggests that bio-Ag/ZnO NCs are a potential candidate for the development of a high-performance electrochemical-based non-enzymatic nanosensor with rapid monitoring, cost-effectiveness, and eco-friendly to detect carbaryl pesticide residues in agricultural products.

Abstract
Zileuton (ZLT) is an active oral inhibitor of enzyme 5-lipoxygenase, and long-term intake and overdose of ZLT cause adverse effects, leading to critical conditions in patients. This is a well-recognized issue that necessitates a better approach for ZLT sensing. Given the increasing interest in ZLT sensing and the limitations of previous techniques, there is a need for a highly sensitive, robust, and fast operation method that is inexpensive and easy to use. Thus, for the sensitive detection and determination of ZLT, an electrochemical sensor based on graphene was fabricated. Graphene has excellent properties, such as high surface area, low toxicity, conductivity, and electroactive conjugation with biomolecules, making it suitable for sensing. The electrocatalytic property of graphene promotes the redox-coupled reaction of ZLT. Electrochemical investigation of the modifier was carried out by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). An optimization and analysis of the influence of different parameters on the electrochemical behavior of ZLT were carried out using the CV approach. The scan rate study aided in exploring the physicochemical properties of the electrode process, and two electrons with two protons were found to be involved in the electrooxidation of ZLT. The fabricated sensor showed a wide range of linearity with ZLT, from 0.3 µM to 100.0 µM, and the detection limit was evaluated as 0.03 µM under optimized conditions. The analysis of spiked urine samples, with good recovery values for percent RSD, provided support for the efficiency and applicability of the developed electrode.

Immobilization and redistribution process of As(V) during As(V)-bearing ferrihydrite reduction by Geobacter sulfurreducens under the influence of TiO 2 nanoparticles. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 423:127178.

Abstract
The redistribution process of arsenate (As(V)) and the variation in As(V) content in different locations must be clarified to ensure low mobility of As(V) during microbial ferrihydrite reduction. In this study, we investigated As(V) immobilization and redistribution processes when ferrihydrite was incubated with Geobacter sulfurreducens in the presence of titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles. Our study results showed that, As(V) in the aqueous phase and ferrihydrite were redistributed on light minerals (goethite), heavy minerals (ferrihydrite and magnetite), and extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) induced by G. sulfurreducens during ferrihydrite reduction. Interestingly, we found that As(V) in the form of arsenate ion (AsO43-) was adsorbed by the functional groups of the EPS, while the formed FeII3(AsVO4)2 was wrapped in the network structure of EPS. Moreover, the addition of TiO2 nanoparticles did not promote but delayed the entire ferrihydrite reduction, As(V) immobilization and redistribution processes. Furthermore, changes in the aqueous arsenic and iron concentrations are closely related to the formation time of secondary minerals. Our study findings provide new insights into the As(V) immobilization process mediated by G. sulfurreducens under anaerobic conditions.

Abstract
The demand for removal of refractory organic pollutants limits the application of microbial fuel cells. In this study, the synergistic effects of bioelectrochemical and photocatalysis methods were captured by constructing a biophoto anode from a combination of WO3/TiO2 and carbon felt. This biophoto electrode was able to decrease the aniline concentration from 63.3 ± 6.2 to 9.3 ± 5.5 mg/L. The structure of the benzene ring was broken through strong oxidation by photocatalysis. Electrochemical analysis showed that photocatalysis also enhanced the extracellular electron transfer of microorganisms and reduced the resistance of the anode from 136.9 Ω to 69.9 Ω. In addition, the maximum current output increased by 28.5% under the composite biophoto electrode. Further analysis of the microbial community indicated that the biophoto electrode promoted the enrichment of Geobacter in the anode. This biophoto electrode provided a method for overcoming the disadvantages of anaerobic degradation of refractory organics.

Abstract
Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) the most extensively described bioelectrochemical systems (BES), have been made remarkable progress in the past few decades. Although the energy and environment benefits of MFCs have been recognized in bioconversion process, there are still several challenges for practical applications on large-scale, particularly for relatively low power output by high ohmic resistance and long period of start-up time. Anodes serving as an attachment carrier of microorganisms plays a vital role on bioelectricity production and extracellular electron transfer (EET) between the electroactive bacteria (EAB) and solid electrode surface in MFCs. Therefore, there has been a surge of interest in developing advanced anodes to enhance electrode electrical properties of MFCs. In this review, different properties of advanced materials for decorating anode have been comprehensively elucidated regarding to the principle of well-designed electrode, power output and electrochemical properties. In particular, the mechanism of these materials to enhance bioelectricity generation and the synergistic action between the EAB and solid electrode were clarified in detail. Furthermore, development of next generation anode materials and the potential modification methods were also prospected.

Abstract
Extracellular electron transfer (EET) allows microorganisms to perform anaerobic respiration using insoluble electron acceptors, including minerals and electrodes. EET-based applications require efficient electron transfer between living and non-living systems. To improve EET efficiency, the TiO2@TiN nanocomposite was used to form hybrid biofilms with Shewanella loihica PV-4 (PV-4). Chronoamperometry showed that peak current was increased 4.6-fold via the addition of the TiO2@TiN nanocomposite. Different biofilms were further tested in a dual-chamber microbial fuel cell. The PV-4 biofilm resulted a maximum power density of 33.4 mW/m2, while the hybrid biofilm of the TiO2@TiN nanocomposite with PV-4 yielded a 92.8% increase of power density. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy analyses showed a lower electron-transfer resistance in the hybrid biofilm. Biological measurements revealed that both flavin secretion and cytochrome c expression were increased when the TiO2@TiN nanocomposite presented. These results demonstrated that the TiO2@TiN nanocomposite could synergistically enhance the EET of PV-4 through altering its metabolism. Our findings provide a new strategy for optimizing biotic-abiotic interactions in bioelectrochemical systems.
