Abstract
Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) is a major pollutant, causing acid rain, photochemical smog, and respiratory damage. The annual safe limit is 50 parts per billion (ppb), while concentrations exceeding 1 part per million (ppm) can result in respiratory ailments. Conventionally, n-type metal oxide semiconductors operating at elevated temperatures have been utilized for NO2 detection. Recently, p-type semiconductors with their hole accumulation layer, rapid recovery post-gas exposure, and good humidity tolerance are being investigated as potential NO2 sensors, once again working at elevated temperatures. In this work, a room-temperature (27 ± 2 °C) NO2 sensor is demonstrated by using a nanocomposite based on p-type bismuth ferrite (BFO) nanoparticles and silver nanowires (Ag NWs). This nanocomposite is capable of sensing a NO2 gas concentration of up to 0.2 ppm. The BFO nanoparticles are synthesized via a sol-gel route followed by sintering at 500 °C to form the crystalline phase. Nanocomposites are obtained by formulating a dispersion of the BFO nanoparticles and Ag NWs, followed by direct writing on both flexible and rigid substrates. The Ag NWs act as the conducting pathway, reducing the overall electrical resistance and thus enabling room-temperature operation. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and surface area studies provide phase information and surface morphology, and the porous nature of the film helps in room-temperature gas adsorption. The current-voltage and gas-sensing behavior are studied to obtain the optimized molar ratio (4:1 BFO/Ag NWs) for the sensor. The sensor deposited on poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) also works under a bent condition, indicating good flexibility. Rapid NO2 sensing was achieved in a BFO-Ag/PET device with response/recovery times of 7/8.5 s and 12/15 s in straight and bent geometries, respectively. Additionally, a good sensitivity of 30 to 60% was achieved for the BFO-Ag/PET device across 100 to 1000 ppb of NO2. The development of a nanocomposite combining an active sensing element (BFO) and a charge-transport element (Ag NWs) opens up a multitude of other application areas.

Abstract
A novel electrochemical sensor based on LaNiO3/g-C3N4@RGH nanocomposite material was developed to simultaneously determine Ribociclib (RIBO) and Alpelisib (ALPE). Ribociclib and Alpelisib are vital anticancer medications used in the treatment of advanced breast cancer. The sensor exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidation of RIBO and ALPE, enabling their simultaneous detection. The fabricated sensor was characterized using various techniques, including energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), which confirmed the successful synthesis of the LaNiO3/g-C3N4@RGH composite material. Electrochemical characterization revealed enhanced conductivity and lower resistance of the modified electrode compared to the bare electrode. The developed sensor exhibited high repeatability, reproducibility, stability, and selectivity toward RIBO detection. Furthermore, the sensor displayed high sensitivity with low detection limits of 0.88 nM for RIBO and 6.1 nM for ALPE, and linear ranges of 0.05-6.2 μM and 0.5-6.5 μM, respectively. The proposed electrochemical sensor offers a promising approach for simultaneously determining RIBO and ALPE in pharmaceutical formulations and biological samples with recovery data of 98.7-102.0 %, providing a valuable tool for anticancer drug analysis and clinical research.

Abstract
Modern industries rapid expansion has heightened energy needs and accelerated fossil fuel depletion, contributing to global warming. Additionally, organic pollutants present substantial risks to aquatic ecosystems due to their stability, insolubility, and non-biodegradability. Scientists are currently researching high-performance materials to address these issues. LaFeO3 nanosheets (LFO-NS) were synthesized in this study using a solvothermal method with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as a soft template. The LFO-NS demonstrate superior performance, large surface area and charge separation than that of LaFeO3 nanoparticles (LFO-NP). The LFO-NS performance is further upgraded by incorporating ZIF-67. Our results confirmed the ZIF-67/LFO-NS nanocomposite have superior performances than pure LFO-NP and ZIF-67. The integration of ZIF-67 has enhanced the charge separation and promote the surface area of LFO-NSwhich was confirmed by various characterization techniques including TEM, HRTEM, DRS, EDX, XRD, FS, XPS, FT-IR, BET, PL, and RAMAN. The 5ZIF-67/LFO-NS sample showed significant activities for CO2 conversion, malachite green degradation, and antibiotics (cefazolin, oxacillin, and vancomycin) degradation. Furthermore, stability tests have confirmed that our optimal sample very active and stable. Furthermore, based on scavenger experiments and the photocatalytic degradation pathways, it has been established that H+ and •O2- are vital in the decomposition of MG and antibiotics. Our research work will open new gateways to prepare MOFs-Perovskites nanocatalysts for exceptional CO2 conversion, organic pollutants and antibiotics degradation.

Emerging Mesoporous Polyacrylamide/Gelatin-Iron Lanthanum Oxide Nanohybrids towards the Antibiotic Drugs Removal from the Wastewater. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 13:2835. [PMID: 37947681 PMCID: PMC10649728 DOI: 10.3390/nano13212835] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2023] [Revised: 10/22/2023] [Accepted: 10/24/2023] [Indexed: 11/12/2023]
Abstract
The polyacrylamide/gelatin-iron lanthanum oxide (P-G-ILO nanohybrid) was fabricated by the free radical grafting co-polymerization technique in the presence of N,N-methylenebisacrylamide (MBA) as cross linker and ammonium persulfate (APS) as initiator. The P-G-ILO nanohybrid was characterized by the various spectroscopic and microscopic techniques that provided the information regarding the crystalline behavior, surface area, and pore size. The response surface methodology was utilized for the statistical observation of diclofenac (DF) adsorption from the wastewater. The adsorption capacity (qe, mg/g) of P-G-ILO nanohybrid was higher (254, 256, and 258 mg/g) than the ILO nanoparticle (239, 234, and 233 mg/g). The Freundlich isotherm model was the best fitted, as it gives the higher values of correlation coefficient (R2 = 0.982, 0.991 and 0.981) and lower value of standard error of estimate (SEE = 6.30, 4.42 and 6.52), which suggested the multilayered adsorption of DF over the designed P-G-ILO nanohybrid and followed the pseudo second order kinetic model (PSO kinetic model) adsorption. The thermodynamic study reveals that adsorption was spontaneous and endothermic in nature and randomness onto the P-G-ILO nanohybrids surface increases after the DF adsorption. The mechanism of adsorption of DF demonstrated that the adsorption was mainly due to the electrostatic interaction, hydrogen bonding, and dipole interaction. P-G-ILO nanohybrid was reusable for up to five adsorption/desorption cycles.

Abstract
Electrocatalytic water splitting has emerged as a promising approach for clean and sustainable hydrogen production. The LaFeO3 perovskite structure exhibits intriguing properties such as mixed ionic-electronic conductivity, high stability, and abundant active sites for electrocatalysis. However, its OER and HER activities are limited by the sluggish kinetics of these reactions. To overcome this limitation, Au nanoparticles (NPs) are decorated onto the surface of LaFeO3 through a facile synthesis method. The Au NPs on the LaFeO3 surface provide additional active sites for water splitting reactions, promoting the adsorption and activation of water molecules. The presence of Au enhances the charge transfer kinetics via the heterostructure between Au NPs and LaFeO3 and facilitates electron transport during the OER and HER process. The catalyst requires only 318 and 199 mV as overpotential to attain a 50 mA cm-2 current density in 1 M KOH solution. Our results demonstrate that the Au@LaFeO3 catalyst exhibits significantly improved electrocatalytic activity compared to pure LaFeO3 and other catalysts reported in the literature. The enhanced performance is attributed due to the synergistic effects between Au NPs and LaFeO3, including an increased surface area, improved conductivity, and optimized surface energetics. Overall, the Au-decorated LaFeO3 catalyst presents a promising candidate for efficient electrocatalytic water splitting, providing a pathway for sustainable hydrogen production. The insights gained from this study contribute to the development of advanced catalysts for renewable energy technologies and pave the way for future research in the field of electrochemical water splitting.

Abstract
Triclosan (TCS) is a polychlorinated phenoxy phenol (PCPPs) used as a disinfectant and a broad-spectrum antibacterial and antifungal agent in personal hygiene products. TCS easily forms diphenyl ethers and dioxins, which are persistent organic pollutants. This work used a double approach for the TSC sensing: a) screen-printed (SPE) electrochemical platform for on-site application, modified with lanthanum iron oxide and graphitic carbon nitride composite (LaFeO3/Fe2O3@g-C3N4/SPE); and b) carbon paste electrode (CPE), modified with the same material and used in laboratory conditions. Linear range from 0.1 μM to 10 μM, the limit of detection (LOD) of 29 nM and the limit of quantification (LOQ) of 91 nM were obtained for CP electrode in BRBS pH 8. SPE showed the best analytical parameters in BRBS at pH 3, with a linear range from 0.3 μM to 7 μM, LOD of 0.09 μM and LOQ of 0.28 μM. Furthermore, the influence of potential interferents was investigated and proven to be negligible. Determination of TSC was performed to estimate the environmental impact of this compound as well as the practical usefulness of the proposed sensor in the real sample analysis, confirmed with a HPLC analysis.

Abstract
Many toxic gases are mixed into the atmosphere because of increased air pollution. An efficient gas sensor is required to detect these poisonous gases with its ultrasensitive ability. We employed the thermal evaporation method to deposit an n-SnSe2/p-SnO/n-SnSe heterojunction and observed a temperature-dependent n-p-n switching NO2 gas sensor with high selectivity working at room temperature (RT). The structural and morphological properties of the material were studied using the characterization techniques such as XRD, SEM, Raman spectroscopy, XPS, and HRTEM, respectively. At RT, the device response was 256% for 5 ppm NO2. The response/recovery times were 34 s/272 s, respectively. The calculated limit of detection (LOD) was ∼115 ppb with a 38% response. The device response was better with NO2 gas than with SO2, NO, H2S, CO, H2, and NH3. The mechanism of temperature-dependent n-p-n switching, fast response, recovery, and selective detection of NO2 at RT has been discussed on the basis of physisorption and charge transfer. Thus, this work will add a new dimension to 2D materials as selective gas detectors at room temperature.

Abstract
The successful integration or hybridization of perovskite oxides with their halide cousins would enable the formation of both multi-anionic and multi-cationic solid solutions with unique metal-ion sites and synergistic properties that could potentially surpass the performance of classic perovskites. However, such solid solutions had not been produced previously owing to their distinct formation energies and different synthesis conditions. Solid solutions combining perovskite oxides with fluorides were produced in this study by mechanochemical synthesis. The obtained perovskite oxide-halide solid solutions had highly mixed elements and valences, uniform element distributions, and single-phase crystalline structures. The solid solution with an optimized combination of oxides and fluorides exhibited enhanced catalytic performance in the oxygen evolution reaction.
