Abstract
We synthesized Au/Fe3O4 microparticles. Initially, citrate-capped Fe3O4 micro-sized particles were synthesized by the co-precipitation method with an excess amount of trisodium citrate. Gold ions were reduced on the surface of citrate-capped Fe3O4 and grew as gold sub-microparticles with an average diameter of 210 nm on the surface. The characteristic SPR peak of gold nanoparticles on the surface of Fe3O4 was detected at 584 nm, whereas the absorption in the near-infrared region was increased. SEM images has proved that the synthesized Au/Fe3O4 composite microparticles has an average diameter of 1.7 micrometers. The results of XRD patterns proved the existence of both crystal phases of Fe3O4 and Au particles. To investigate the catalytic activity, the reaction rate constant of reduction of 2,4-dinitrophenol (2,4-DNP) and degradation of Congo red (CR), and methylene blue (MB) with NaBH4 in the presence of Au/Fe3O4 catalyst was monitored by UV-Vis spectroscopy. The initial reaction rate constant calculated from the change in characteristic peak absorptions of 2,4-dinitrophenol was 3.97×10-3 s-1, while the reaction rate constants for the degradation of CR and MB were 9.72×10-3 s-1 and 14.25×10-3 s-1 respectively. After 5 cycles, Au/Fe3O4 microparticles preserved 99 % of the reaction rate constant, exhibiting considerable recycling efficiency in the reduction of nitro groups.

Abstract
The cationic methylene blue (MB) dye sequestration was studied by using oxidized carboxymethyl cellulose-chitosan (OCMC-CS) and its composite films with silicon carbide (OCMC-CS-SiC), and silica-coated SiC nanoparticles (OCMC-CS-SiC@SiO2). The resulting composite films were characterized through various analytical techniques, including Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The dye adsorption properties of the synthesized composite films were comprehensively investigated in batch experiments and the effect of parameters such as contact time, initial dye concentration, catalyst dosages, temperature, and pH were systematically evaluated. The results indicated that the film's adsorption efficiency was increased by increasing the contact time, catalyst amount, and temperature, and with a decreased initial concentration of dye solution. The adsorption efficiency was highest at neutral pH. The experimental results demonstrated that OCMC-CS films have high dye adsorption capabilities as compared to OCMC-CS-SiC, and OCMC-CS-SiC@SiO2. Additionally, the desorption investigation suggested that the adsorbents are successfully regenerated. Overall, this study contributes to the development of sustainable and effective adsorbent materials for dye removal applications. These films present a promising and environmentally friendly approach to mitigate dye pollution from aqueous systems.

Abstract
Metal nanoparticles possess high catalytic activity in various organic transformation reactions. A catalyst must be recovered and re-used effectively and economically to lower the overall reaction cost. The recovery of a catalyst remains a challenge due to their extreme small size. In this research work, catalytic metal nanoparticles were synthesized on Zn-phthalocyanine (ZnPc) and chitosan hydrogel (CH) composite which acts as catalyst support. The ZnPc-CH support facilitate the easy recovery of the loaded metal nanoparticles. Metal nanoparticles (M0) based on Cu0, Ag0, Ni0, Co0 and Fe0 were decorated inside and on ZnPc-CH hydrogel surface. The developed M0@ZnPc-CH were utilized for the enhanced selective reduction of toxins and hydrogen production by methanolysis and hydrolysis of NaBH4. Effective catalytic reduction and hydrogen generation was successfully achieved with Co0@ZnPc-CH and ZnPc-CH. Under optimized conditions, Co0@ZnPc-CH showed complete reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) in 8.0 min with the fast 4-NP reduction kinetics (K = 0.611 min-1). Among the developed catalysts, ZnPc-CH showed fast H2 generation with high H2 generation rate (HGR = 4100 mLg-1min-1) under optimized conditions. Metal leaching from Co0@ZnPc-CH was negligible during recycling of the catalyst, suggesting that it could be implemented to 4-NP treatment from real water samples. Similarly, ZnPc-CH could produce same quantity of H2 throughout 4 continuous cycles of durability testing without any deactivation and leaching and ZnPc-CH showed high stability, indicating the effectiveness of the catalyst to be applied for H2 production on large scale.

Abstract
The evolution and development of solid-matrix are considered a backbone for supporting and stabilizing of metal nanoparticles (NPs) and are the soul of the catalytic system. In the current study, the alginate-starch microsphere (Alg-St) was cross-linked using CaCl2 as a cross-linker. In addition, the Alg-St microsphere was blended with different percentages of activated carbon (AC). The microspheres adsorbed Cu+2 was reduced to zero-valent copper NPs through NaBH4 and used as a dip-catalyst. The supported Cu NPs cum NaBH4 system was used as dip-catalyst for the hydrogenation of 4-nitrophenol (4NP), 2-nitroanilline (2NA), and degradation of methylene blue (MB) and Congo red (CR) dyes. Among the different kinetics models, the experimental data were well-fitted in the zero-order kinetic model. Moreover pH, and recyclability were studied for 4NP, where the best activity was achieved at pH 7.0 for 4NP. No leaching was observed after 3rd cycle in the catalyst.

Abstract
Organic phenolic pollutants in industrial wastewater cause severe environmental pollution and physiological damage. Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) hydrogels generally have poor mechanical strength and are also intrinsically frangible, limiting their widespread applications in wastewater treatment. Combining them with 2-dimensional materials can also only improve the mechanical properties of hydrogels. Here, we report a high-strength, chemical stability and strong adsorption MXene/poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) thermosensitive composite hydrogel for efficient removal of phenolic pollutants from industrial wastewater. Ionic liquids (ILs) were grafted onto the surface of MXenes and introduced into NIPAM monomer solution to obtain composite hydrogels by in-situ polymerization for improved mechanical strength and adsorption capacity of the composite hydrogel. Compared with the MXene/PNIPAM composite hydrogel, the introduction of ILs simultaneously improves the mechanical and adsorption properties of the composite hydrogel. The ILs bind to the surface of MXene flakes through electrostatic interactions, which improved the thermal stability and oxidation resistance of MXenes while maintaining its good dispersion. Using 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (EMIMBF4) modified MXene (MXene-EMIMBF4) did not change significantly were observed after aging for 45 days. As-prepared composite hydrogels demonstrated excellent mechanical properties, reusability, and high adsorption capacity for p-Nitrophenol (4-NP). The MXene-EMIMBF4/PNIPAM hydrogel could recover after ten 95% strain compression cycles under the synergistic effect of chemical bonding and electrostatic attraction. Its maximum adsorption capacity for 4-NP was 200.29 mg g-1 at room temperature, and the adsorption capacity maintained at ∼90% of its initial value after five adsorption cycles, which was related to the introduction of EMIMBF4 to form a denser network structure. The adsorption data followed the pseudo-second-order kinetics and Freundlich models.

Abstract
In the catalytic reduction of various environment pollutants, cobalt-doped tin oxide, i.e., Co-SnO2 intercalated gelatin (GL) hydrogel nanocomposite was prepared via direct mixing of Co-SnO2 doped with GL. Then, it was crosslinked internally using formaldehyde within a viscous solution of gelatin polymer, which led to the formation of GL/Co-SnO2 hydrogel nanocomposite. GL/Co-SnO2 hydrogel nanocomposite was fully characterized by using field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), and attenuated total reflection–Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR). The FESEM images indicate that the Co-SnO2 composite has a spherical structure on the GL matrix while EDX elucidates the elemental composition of each atom in the crosslinked GL/Co-SnO2 hydrogel nanocomposite. The GL/Co-SnO2 nanocomposite was checked for the reduction of various pollutants, including 2-nitro-phenol (2-NP), 2,6-dinitro-phenol (2,6-DNP), 4-nitro-phenol (4-NP), Congo red (CR), and methyl orange (MO) dyes with a strong sodium borohydride (NaBH4) reducing agent. The GL/Co-SnO2 nanocomposite synergistically reduced the MO in the presence of the reducing agent with greater reduction rate of 1.036 min−1 compared to other dyes. The reduction condition was optimized by changing various parameters, such as the catalyst amount, dye concentration, and the NaBH4 amount. Moreover, the GL/Co-SnO2 nanocomposite catalyst can be easily recovered, is recyclable, and revealed minimal loss of nanomaterials.

Abstract
In the present study, a biopolymer nanocomposite hydrogel based on gelatin and tin-doped gadolinium oxide (Sn-Gd2O3@GH) was prepared for the efficient reduction of water pollutants. The method of Sn-Gd2O3@GH preparation consisted of two steps. A Sn-Gd2O3 nanomaterial was synthesized by a hydrothermal method and mixed with a hot aqueous solution (T > 60 °C) of gelatin polymer, followed by cross-linking. Due to the presence of abundant functional groups on the skeleton of gelatin, such as carboxylic acid (–COOH) and hydroxyl (–OH), it was easily cross-linked with formaldehyde. The structure, morphology, and composition of Sn-Gd2O3@GH were further characterized by the FESEM, XRD, EDX, and FTIR techniques. The FESEM images located the distribution of the Sn-Gd2O3 nanomaterial in a GH matrix of 30.06 nm. The XRD patterns confirmed the cubic crystalline structure of Gd2O3 in a nanocomposite hydrogel, while EDS elucidated the elemental composition of pure Sn-Gd2O3 powder and cross-linked the Sn-Gd2O3@GH samples. The synthesized Sn-Gd2O3@GH nanocomposite was used for the removal of different azo dyes and nitrophenols (NPs). It exhibited an efficient catalytic reduction of Congo red (CR) with a reaction rate of 9.15 × 10−1 min−1 with a strong NaBH4-reducing agent. Moreover, the Sn-Gd2O3@GH could be easily recovered by discharging the reduced (colourless) dye, and it could be reused for a fresh cycle.

Abstract
In the present study, two catalysts based-on copper and nickel nanoparticles anchored on agarose-coated sponge (Cu-AG-sponge and Ni-AG-sponge) were prepared, respectively. Both catalysts were characterized by analytical techniques of thermogravimetric analysis energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Spherical Cu and Ni nanoparticles on struts of AG-coated sponge were observed by FESEM and the samples' elemental composition was confirmed by EDX technique. After characterization, the Cu-AG-sponge and Ni-AG-sponge catalysts were tested in 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) and methylene blue dye (MB) reduction in an aqueous medium. The reduction of the 4-NP to 4-aminophenol (4-AP) was achieved up to 95% using the NaBH4 reductant and Cu-AG-sponge and Ni-AG-sponge catalysts, respectively. Similarly, the rate of reduction of MB was faster for the Cu-AG-sponge as compared to the Ni-AG-sponge which was discussed based-on the catalyst morphology and other factors. The high rate of reactions for the 4-NP and MB reduction suggests that the Cu-AG-sponge and Ni-AG-sponge catalyst possess high catalytic efficiency, low cost and good reusability having the potential to be used in similar other reactions.

Abstract
A novel nanocomposite bead based on polymeric matrix of carboxymethyl cellulose and copper oxide-nickel oxide nanoparticles was synthesized, characterized, and applied for adsorptive removal of inorganic and organic contaminants at trace level of part per million (mgL-1) from aqueous sample. Carboxymethyl cellulose/copper oxide-nickel oxide (CMC/CuO-NiO) adsorbent beads were selective toward the removal of Pb(II) among other metal ions. The removal percentage of Pb(II) was more than 99% with 3 mgL-1. The waste beads after Pb (II) adsorption (Pb@CMC/CuO-NiO) and CMC/CuO-NiO nanocomposite beads were employed as adsorbents for removing of various dyes. It was found that Pb@CMC/CuO-NiO can be reused as adsorbent for the removal of Congo Red (CR), while CMC/CuO-NiO nanocomposite beads were more selective for removal of Eosin Yellow (EY) from aqueous media. The adsorption of CR and EY was optimized, and the removal percentages were 93% and 96.4%, respectively. The influence of different parameters was studied on the uptake capacity of Pb(II), CR, and EY, and lastly, the CMC/CuO-NiO beads exhibited responsive performance in relation to pH and other parameters. Thus, the prepared CMC/CuO-NiO beads were found to be a smart material which is effective and played super adsorption performance in the removal of Pb(II), CR, and EY from aqueous solution. These features make CMC/CuO-NiO beads suitable for numerous scientific and industrial applications and may be used as an alternative to high-cost commercial adsorbents.

Abstract
Discharge of untreated textile wastewaters loaded with dyes is not only contaminating the soil and water resources but also posing a threat to the health and socioeconomic life of the people. Hence, there is a need to devise the strategies for effective treatment of such wastewaters. The present study reports the catalytic potential of biogenic ZnO nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) synthesized by using a bacterial strain Pseudochrobactrum sp. C5 for degradation of dyes and wastewater treatment. The catalytic potential of the biogenic ZnO NPs for degradation of dyes and wastewater treatment was also compared with that of the chemically synthesized ones. The characterization of the biogenic ZnO NPs through FT-IR, XRD, and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) indicated that these are granular agglomerated particles having a size range of 90-110 nm and zeta potential of -27.41 mV. These catalytic NPs had resulted into almost complete (> 90%) decolorization of various dyes including the methanol blue and reactive black 5. These NPs also resulted into a significant reduction in COD, TDS, EC, pH, and color of two real wastewaters spiked with reactive black 5 and reactive red 120. The findings of this study suggest that the biosynthesized ZnO NPs might serve as a potential green solution for treatment of dye-loaded textile wastewaters.

Abstract
The catalyst activity of the nano Au was largely dependent on the particle size and the structure of the supported matrix to avoid particle agglomeration. Chitosan (CS) and CS coated layered double hydroxide of NiAl (LDH) microsphere were designed through a simple and an economic casting method. The CS and LDH microsphere were used for the impregnation and support of Au NPs and represented as Au/CS and Au/LDH and used for the sole and concurrent discoloration of methylene blue (MB) and rhodamine B (RB) dyes. The aim of the incorporation of NiAl-LDH to the CS host polymer is to increase the binding capacity of CS with Au NPs to make it more stable. The Au/LDH displaying stronger catalyst activity for both dyes discoloration, while found highly selective for MB dye. The high catalyst activity of Au/LDH is due to their small crystallite size which is 1.02 nm compared to 6.75 nm in Au/CS derived from Scherer's equation. The kapp value based on zero-order kinetics was higher with Au/LDH against MB and RB dyes which are 3.5 × 10-1 and 1.4 × 10-1 min-1 respectively.

Abstract
In this work, cellulose acetate polymer (CA) sheet and 2% ZnAl grafted on activated carbon grown in the form of layered double hydroxide (ZnAl/C-LDH) incorporated into CA polymer (CA-ZA2) 5 wt% (CA-ZA5) and 10 wt% of ZnAl/C-LDH (CA-ZA10) sheets were synthesized by simple casting method. All the stated sheets were fabricated with zero-valent Ni nanoparticles by adsorption of Ni+2 ions followed by subsequent reduction with NaBH4 and named as CA@Ni, CA-ZA2@Ni, CA-ZA5@Ni, and CA-ZA10@Ni NPs. The synthesized Ni NPs were investigated through FESEM, FTIR, XRD and EDS techniques. These supported and stabilized Ni NPs were largely used for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (PNP), and 2-nitrophenol (ONP) in the presence of NaBH4 which act as a reducing agent. Similarly, the catalytic efficiency was also assessed against the removal of dyes. The linear relationship and Kapp were obtained from pseudo-first-order kinetics. The rate constant Kapp of CA@Ni NPs for the reduction of PNP is 1.5 × 10-1 and CA-ZA2@Ni (Kapp = 2.6 × 10-1), CA-ZA5@Ni (Kapp = 3.2 × 10-1), and CA-ZA10@Ni is 5.7 × 10-1 min-1. The highest rate constant for PNP reduction was observed with CA-ZA10@Ni NPs. The rate of CR removal with ZA10@Ni NPs is 2.05 × 10-1 while the adjacent R2 is 0.9013. Similarly, the rate constant and adjacent R2 values were calculated for the degradation of other dyes and nitrophenols.

Abstract
In this study, cobalt oxide nanoparticles (Co3O4 NPs) were synthesized by precipitation method from cobalt sulphate solution with basic pH, followed by calcination. The ex-situ synthesized Co3O4 NPs were mixed with hot agar (AG) aqueous solution. The preparation of AG- Co3O4 nanocomposite hydrogel was carried out by self-association method promoted by thermal denaturation. The quenching of hot suspension from 80 °C to room temperature resulted in the formation of AG-Co3O4 nanocomposite hydrogel. The as-synthesized AG-Co3O4 was characterized by FTIR, XRD and SEM techniques. In order to test the catalytic activity, AG-Co3O4 was used as a heterogeneous catalyst for the reduction of methylene blue (MB), congo red (CR) and 4-nitrophenol (4-NP). The excellent performance of the AG-Co3O4 was shown by the reaction rate constant (kapp) values of 0.3623, 0.2114 and 0.2893 for MB, 4-NP and CR, respectively. All these results were obtained with R2 above 94 and utilization of an AG-Co3O4 catalyst. Furthermore, the catalytic reduction was studied with varying dye concentration and catalyst dose. This study showed that AG-Co3O4 catalyst has high potential for remediation of environmental pollutants in wastewaters.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Natural phytochemicals and their derivatives have been used in medicine since prehistoric times. Natural phytochemicals have potential uses against various disorders, including cancers. However, due to low bioavailability, their success in clinical trials has not been reproduced. Nanotechnology has played a vital role in providing new directions for diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of different disorders, and of cancer in particular. Nanotechnology has demonstrated the capability to deliver conventional natural products with poor solubility or a short half-life to target specific sites in the body and regulate the release of drugs. Among the natural products, the phytoalexin resveratrol has demonstrated therapeutic effects, including antioxidant, antiinflammatory, and anti-proliferative effects, as well as the potential to inhibit the initiation and promotion of cancer. However, low water solubility and extensive first-pass metabolism lead to poor bioavailability of resveratrol, hindering its potential. Conventional dosage forms of resveratrol, such as tablets, capsules, dry powder, and injections, have met with limited success. Nanoformulations are now being investigated to improve the pharmacokinetic characteristics, as well as to enhance the bioavailability and targetability of resveratrol. OBJECTIVES This review details the therapeutic effectiveness, mode of action, and pharmacokinetic limitations of resveratrol, as well as discusses the successes and challenges of resveratrol nanoformulations. Modern nanotechnology techniques to enhance the encapsulation of resveratrol within nanoparticles and thereby enhance its therapeutic effects are emphasized. CONCLUSION To date, no resveratrol-based nanosystems are in clinical use, and this review would provide a new direction for further investigations on innovative nanodevices that could consolidate the anticancer potential of resveratrol.

Abstract
Water pollution due to waste effluents of the textile industry is seriously causing various health problems in humans. Water pollution with pathogenic bacteria, especially Escherichia coli (E. coli) and other microbes is due to the mixing of fecal material with drinking water, industrial and domestic sewage, pasture and agricultural runoff. Among the chemical pollutants, organic dyes due to toxic nature, are one of the major contaminants of industrial wastewater. Adequate sanitation services and drinking quality water would eliminate 200 million cases of diarrhea, which results in 2.1 million less deaths caused by diarrheal disease due to E. coli each year. Nanotechnology is an excellent platform as compared to conventional treatment methods of water treatment and remediation from microorganisms and organic dyes. In the current study, toxicity and carcinogenicity of the organic dyes have been studied as well as the remediation/inactivation of dyes and microorganism has been discussed. Remediation by biological, physical and chemical methods has been reviewed critically. A physical process like adsorption is cost-effective, but can't degrade dyes. Biological methods were considered to be ecofriendly and cost-effective. Microbiological degradation of dyes is cost-effective, eco-friendly and alternative to the chemical reduction. Besides, certain enzymes especially horseradish peroxidase are used as versatile catalysts in a number of industrial processes. Moreover, this document has been prepared by gathering recent research works related to the dyes and microbial pollution elimination from water sources by using heterogeneous photocatalysts, metal nanoparticles catalysts, metal oxides and enzymes.

Abstract
In this work, a superabsorbent polymer, sodium polyacrylate, also known as water ball (WB), loaded with Ni, Cu, and Ag zero-valent metal nanoparticles (MNPs) was applied for environmental remediation. WBs loaded with Ni, Cu, and Ag NPs were evaluated for their catalytic performance against the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) to 4-aminophenol (4-AP) and decolorization of methyl orange (MO), Congo red (CR), and methylene blue (MB) dyes. The apparent rate constants (K app) for the reduction of 4-NP to 4-AP in the presence of Ni, Cu, and Ag NPs were 2.1 × 10-1, 2.9 × 10-1, and 4.6 × 10-1 min-1, respectively, indicating the strongest activity of WB loaded with Ag NPs as compared to the other two catalysts. Similarly, WB loaded with Ag NPs showed the highest K app values compared to the other two catalysts. Among all of the bacteria studied, except Providencia stuartii and Streptococcus mutans, the zone of inhibition of Ag was higher as compared to that of the Ni and Cu NPs, however, slightly low from that of the reference standard tetracycline TE30. Furthermore, the synthesized catalysts were extensively characterized through X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses.

Abstract
In the present work, Cu nanoparticles were stabilized on ceria/zirconia (Ce/Zr@Cu0), cellulose acetate (CA@Cu0), and a thin film of cellulose acetate embedded ceria/zirconia (CA-Ce/Zr) designated as CA-Ce/Zr@Cu0. In the presence of a reducing agent, all the catalysts revealed excellent catalytic efficiency in aqueous media for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) to 4-aminophenol (4-AP) and degradation of cationic dyes methylene blue (MB) and rhodamine B (RB). Different order of equations were applied to determine the adjacent R2 value and rate constant. Adjacent R2 values for MB are 9.470, 9.422 and 9.050 and its kapp values per minutes are 1.7 × 10-1, 8.3 × 10-2, and 6. 7 × 10-1 with Ce/Zr@Cu0, CA@Cu0, and CA-Ce/Zr@Cu0 derived from the pseudo 1st order kinetics, while in the absence of catalyst the R2 and kapp for MB degradation in the presence of NaBH4 is 0.8643 and 3.4 × 10-3 respectively. Furthermore, regression models, ANOVA and correlation coefficients suggested that all the data are highly significant. The synthesized catalysts were applied for the simultaneous reduction/degradation of mixture of 4-NP-MB, 4-NP-RB and 4-NP-MB-RB mixture to check the practical applicability. Catalytic recyclability of CA-Ce/Zr@Cu0 catalyst dropped till 5th cycle which is due to the leaching of Cu0 NPs.

Abstract
Background:
Bacterial cellulose (BC) has been extensively utilized in a wide range of applications
specifically in the biomedical field thanks to its excellent physico-chemical and biological features. The major
limitation restricting its application in certain areas is its high production cost. Its widespread applications demand
exploration of alternative production media compared to the existing expensive ones. Herein, an effort has
been made to utilize waste and cheaply available local resources including; waste (expired) orange juice (WOJ),
sugarcane juice (SC) and coconut water (CW) as alternative media for BC production in comparison to the synthetic
media (control).
Methods:
Waste and cheap resources were collected from the local market, screened filtered and optimized for
the development of BC culture media. BC production from all media was observed under static cultivation for 10
days. The results indicated 2.75, 2.56, 3.32 and 1.68 g/L BC production that corresponded to 27.5%, 21.7 %, 20.1
% and 31.6 % sugar to BC conversion from control, WOJ, SC and CW media, respectively. Morphology and
crystalline features of produced BC samples were observed through FE-SEM and XRD analysis. It was noteworthy
that BC produced from all alternative sources indicated high water holding capabilities (WHC) and water
retention time (WRT) that augment their applicability in drug delivery and wound healing applications.
Conclusion:
The BC production from cheap resources and its high physical, mechanical and biological properties
can be of high interest for scaling up and commercialization of BC production processes. Furthermore, its liquidabsorbing
capabilities and retention time can help in drug carrying and medical application.

Abstract
Purpose:
Leukemia, one of the major cancers, affects a large proportion of people around the world.
Better treatment options for leukemia are required due to a large number of side effects associated with current
therapeutic regimens. In the present study, we sought to determine the pathway of triggering apoptosis of leukemic
cells by Ocimum basilicum (O. basilicum) plant extract.
Materials/Methods:
Methanolic extract of the O. basilicum plant material was prepared. The crude extract was
fractionated into several fractions through column chromatography using ethyl acetate and n-hexane as eluting
solvents. Cell viability of leukemic cells was assessed via Cell titer GLO assay and apoptosis was measured
through Annexin V/PI staining. Two apoptotic molecules JNK and caspases were analyzed through western blotting
while pro-inflammatory cytokines TNFα, CCL2 and CXCL8 using qPCR. Fractions were characterized
through LC-MS.
Results:
The most potent with lowest IC50 values among the fractions were BF2 (2:8 n-hexane:ethyl acetate) and
BF3 (3:7 n-hexane:ethyl acetate). Cytotoxicity was associated with apoptosis. Apoptosis was found caspasedependent
and P-JNK activation was detected sustained. A significant increase in the level of TNF α and a decrease
in the level of CXCL8 were observed in BF2 and BF3 treated cells.
Conclusion:
The fractions of O. basilicum extract were found to kill cells following JNK pathway activation.
Excellent results were obtained with BF2 and BF3 probably due to predominant Epicatechin and Cinnamic acid
derivatives in these fractions.

Abstract
Background:
Bacterial cellulose (BC) has recently attained greater interest in various research fields,
including drug delivery for biomedical applications. BC has been studied in the field of drug delivery, such as
tablet coating, controlled release systems and prodrug design.
Objective:
In the current work, we tested the feasibility of BC as a drug carrier in microparticulate form for potential
pharmaceutical and biomedical applications.
Method :
For this purpose, drug-loaded BC microparticles were prepared by simple grinding and injection
moulding method through regeneration. Model drugs, i.e., cloxacillin (CLX) and cefuroxime (CEF) sodium salts
were loaded in these microparticles to assess their drug loading and release properties. The prepared microparticles
were evaluated in terms of particle shapes, drug loading efficiency, physical state of the loaded drug, drug
release behaviour and antibacterial properties.
Results:
The BC microparticles were converted to partially amorphous state after regeneration. Moreover, the
loaded drug was transformed into the amorphous state. The results of scanning electron microscopy (SEM)
showed that microparticles had almost spherical shape with a size of ca. 350-400 μm. The microparticles treated
with higher drug concentration (3%) exhibited higher drug loading. Keeping drug concertation constant, i.e., 1%,
the regenerated BC (RBC) microparticles showed higher drug loading (i.e., 37.57±0.22% for CEF and
33.36±3.03% for CLX) as compared to as-synthesized BC (ABC) microparticles (i.e., 9.46±1.30% for CEF and
9.84±1.26% for CLX). All formulations showed immediate drug release, wherein more than 85% drug was released
in the initial 30 min. Moreover, such microparticles exhibited good antibacterial activity with larger zones
of inhibition for drug loaded RBC microparticles as compared to corresponding ABC microparticles.
Conclusion :
Drug loaded BC microparticles with immediate release behaviour and antibacterial activity were
fabricated. Such functionalized microparticles may find potential biomedical and pharmaceutical applications.

Abstract
Core-shell polymers represent a class of composite particles comprising of minimum two dissimilar constituents, one at the center known as a core which is occupied by the other called shell. Core-shell molecularly imprinting polymers (CSMIPs) are composites prepared via printing a template molecule (analyte) in the coreshell assembly followed by their elimination to provide the everlasting cavities specific to the template molecules. Various other types of CSMIPs with a partial shell, hollow-core and empty-shell are also prepared. Numerous methods have been reported for synthesizing the CSMIPs. CSMIPs composites could develop the ability to identify template molecules, increase the relative adsorption selectivity and offer higher adsorption capacity. Keen features are measured that permits these polymers to be utilized in numerous applications. It has been developed as a modern technique with the probability for an extensive range of uses in selective adsorption, biomedical fields, food processing, environmental applications, in utilizing the plant's extracts for further applications, and sensors. This review covers the approaches of developing the CSMIPs synthetic schemes, and their application with special emphasis on uses in the biomedical field, food care subjects, plant extracts analysis and in environmental studies.

Abstract
Abstract
Plant based materials are considered to have broad applications in the remediation of toxic materials. In this report, we present an environmental friendly and economic Cicer arietinum, named as (CP) supported for the synthesis of Ni nanoparticles (NPs) designated as Ni@CP. The in situ Ni@CP NPs were obtained using aqueous medium in the presence of sodium borohydride (NaBH4) as a reducing agent. The prepared catalysts were applied for the hydrogenation/degradation of p-nitrophenol (PNP), o-nitrophenol (ONP), and 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP), as well as congo red (CR), methyl orange (MO), methylene blue (MB) and rhodamine B (RB) dyes. The amount of total metal ions adsorbed onto the CP was evaluated by flame atomic absorption spectroscopy. The Ni@CP catalyst was characterized through PXRD, FTIR, FESEM and EDX analyses.

Abstract
Different chitosan-titanium oxide (CS-TiO2-x, with x = TiO2 loadings of 1, 5, 10,15 and 20 wt%) nanocomposite fibers were prepared and kept separately in each salt solution of CuSO4, CoNO3, AgNO3 and NiSO4 to adsorb Cu2+, Co2+, Ag+, and Ni+ ions, respectively. The metal ions loaded onto CS-TiO2 fibers were reduced to their respective zero-valent metal nanoparticles (ZV-MNPs) like Cu0, Co0, Ag0 and Ni0 by treating with NaBH4. The CS-TiO2 fibers templated with various ZV-MNPs were characterized and investigated for their catalytic efficiency. Among all prepared ZV-MNPs, Cu0 nanoparticles templated on CS-TiO2-15 fibers exhibited high catalytic efficiency for the reduction of dyes (methyl orange (MO), congo red (CR), methylene blue (MB) and acridine orange (AO)) and nitrophenols (4-nitrohphenol (4-NP), 2-nitrophenol (2-NP), 3-nitrophenol (3-NP) and 2,6-dinitrophenol (2,6-DNP)). Besides the good catalytic activities of Cu/CS-TiO2-15 fibers, it could be easily recovered by simply pulling the fiber from the reaction medium.

Antiproliferation and antibacterial effect of biosynthesized AgNps from leaves extract of Guiera senegalensis and its catalytic reduction on some persistent organic pollutants. JOURNAL OF PHOTOCHEMISTRY AND PHOTOBIOLOGY B-BIOLOGY 2017; 175:99-108. [PMID: 28865320 DOI: 10.1016/j.jphotobiol.2017.07.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 41] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2017] [Revised: 06/19/2017] [Accepted: 07/17/2017] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
The study concentrate on the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNps) from the leaves extract of Guiera senegalensis with focus on its; antiproliferation effect on prostate (PC3), breast (MCF7) and liver (HepG2) cancer cell lines, antibacterial effect on Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and the degradation on 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) and congo red dye (CR). The synthesized AgNps were characterized by FTIR, TEM, FESEM, XRD and EDX analysis. The EDS spectrum revealed that the synthesized nanoparticles (Nps) were composed of 55.45% Ag atoms of spherical shape with approximately 50nm size, identified from TEM and FESEM data. The antiproliferation effect of the AgNps varies with cell lines in a concentration dependent manner. The result showed that the AgNps were more effective on PC3 (IC50 23.48μg/mL) than MCF7 (29.25μg/mL) and HepG2 (33.25μg/mL) by the virtue of their IC50 values. The AgNps were highly effective against E. coli and S. aureus by killing 99% colonies. The AgNps also shows a good catalytic reduction of the toxic organic pollutants in which only 3mg of the AgNps degraded 95% of both CR dye and 4-NP in 22 and 36min respectively. Therefore, the green synthesis of AgNps may have potential applications in pharmacology and industries for the treatment of cancers, bacterial infections and in degrading toxic organic pollutants in water.
