[PMID: 38226959 DOI: 10.1002/cbic.202300721] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2023] [Revised: 01/11/2024] [Accepted: 01/16/2024] [Indexed: 01/17/2024]
Abstract
Glycated hemoglobin (GHb) found in mammals undergoes irreversible damage when exposed to external redox agents, which is much more vulnerable than its normal counterpart hemoglobin (Hb). Besides the oxygen regulation throughout the body, Hb plays a vital role in balancing immunological health and the redox cycle. Photoinduced ultra-fast electron transfer phenomena actively participate in regulation of various kind of homeostasis involved in such biomacromolecules. In the present study we have shown that a well-known mutagen Ethidium Bromide (EtBr) reduces GHb in femtosecond time scale (efficiently) upon photoexcitation after efficient recognition in the biomolecule. We have performed similar experiment by colocalizing EtBr and Iron (Fe(III)) on the micellar surface as Hb mimic in order to study the excited state EtBr dynamics to rationalize the time scale obtained from EtBr in GHb and Hb. While other experimental techniques including Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), Zeta potential, absorbance and emission spectroscopy have been employed for the confirmation of structural perturbation of GHb compared to Hb, a detailed computational studies involving molecular docking and density functional theory (DFT) have been employed for the explanation of the experimental observations.

Abstract
Three phases (α, β, and γ) of manganese dioxide (MnO2) are successfully stabilized in a single entity for the first time. For this purpose, Citrullus colocynthis (bitter apple) extract is used as a natural surfactant in green synthesis. MnO2 nanoparticles were synthesized in the presence and absence of plant extracts under the same conditions. The morphology of both products is analysed by SEM and STEM to understand the role of plant extract in controlling the morphology of particles. The crystallinity and composition are analysed by XRD and confirmed that the product is composed of multiple phases α, β, and γ. The reduction of dyes and nitroarenes is studied using MnO2 nanoparticles (green and chemical products) as catalysts. The apparent rate constant, a percentage reduction, time reduction and reduced concentration compare the activities of both catalysts. After comparative data analysis, the catalytic reduction of picric acid is found fastest among all the substrates. All the results are analysed based on structure, functional group and affinity towards catalysts.

Abstract
Due to miscellaneous toxic gases in the vicinity, there is a burgeoning need for advancement in the existing gas sensing technology not only for the survival of mankind but also for the industries based in various fields such as beverage, forestry, health care, environmental monitoring, agriculture, and military security. A gas sensor must be highly selective toward a specific gas in order to avoid incorrect signals while responding to nontarget gases. This may lead to complex scenarios depicting sensor defects, such as low selectivity and cross-sensitivity. Therefore, a multiplex gas sensor is required to address the problems of cross selectivity by combining different gas sensors, signal processing, and pattern recognition techniques along with the currently employed gas sensing technologies. The different sensing materials used in these sensor arrays will produce a unique response signal for developing a set of identifiers as the input that can be used to recognize a specific gas by its "fingerprint". This review provides a comprehensive review of chemiresistive-based multiplex gas sensors, including various fabrication strategies from expensive to low-cost techniques, advances in sensing materials, and a gist of various pattern recognition techniques used for both rigid and flexible gas sensor applications. Finally, the review assesses the current state-of-the-art in multiplex gas sensor technology and discusses various challenges for future research in this direction.

Abstract
A simple process of synthesizing coated filter element substrates (FES) containing zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorods and ZnO graphene-oxide nanocomposite for a pilot-scale industrial dye-effluent treatment plant is proposed. This work reports a detailed analysis of the photocatalysis mechanism on real industrial effluent streams containing a mixture of dyes. The analysis is very relevant for conducting advanced oxidation process-assisted effluent remediation at a field-level treatment operation. Estimation of the dye concentration shows nearly complete (≥98%) degradation from an initial dye sample concentration. A detailed study for the analysis of the initial reactive dyes and their degradation products was performed for quantification and identification of the degradation products through various spectral techniques. A design of the remediation mechanism through degradation pathways is proposed for characterizing the organic compounds in the degraded dye products. A regeneration and reusability study was performed on the FES presenting the durability of the FES-designed synthesis process originally for 11 cycles and regenerated FES for six cycles for achieving a threshold of 60% degradation efficiency. The experimental results demonstrate the efficacy of FES through the designed immobilized approach for the complete remediation of textile dye effluents for a 4 h treatment plant process and the consistent operability of the FES for the combined dye wastewater treatment operations.

Abstract
In this study, a CuBTC/ZnO chitosan composite was synthesized for the adsorptive removal of methylene blue dye from aqueous streams. Characterization techniques, namely, scanning electron microscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller, Fourier transform infrared, X-ray diffraction, and thermogravimetric techniques, were used to characterize CuBTC, ZnO, and CuBTC/ZnO chitosan composites. The scanning electron microscopy images revealed the rough and porous structures of the CuBTC/ZnO chitosan composite. The composites were tested for the adsorption capacity and removal efficiency towards the methylene blue dye by varying adsorbent dosage, adsorbate concentration, pH, and contact time. The pseudo-second-order and Langmuir models were the best fit for the adsorption of methylene blue on CuBTC/ZnO chitosan composite beads, indicating that the adsorption was monolayer and chemical in nature. The equilibrium dose of the composites was 1.6 g L-1, and the contact time was 90 min with a removal efficiency of 98.75%. The maximum adsorption capacity was 50.07 mg g-1. Regeneration of the composites was performed to check the reusability of the synthesized CuBTC/ZnO chitosan composite beads. The active oxygenated species generated by the photocatalytic action of ZnO on the contaminated water was responsible for the degradation of methylene blue. The reported composite beads can be used for up to 5 cycles to remove methylene blue.

Abstract
Dual-functional catalysis indicates that an organic p–n bilayer induces the catalytic oxidation involved in downhill reactions, not only under illumination but also in the dark. When the organo-bilayer is composed of a perylene derivative (3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic-bis-benzimidazole (PTCBI), n-type) and cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc, p-type), only the photocatalytic oxidation of hydrazine (N2H4) occurs. However, the loading of Ag co-catalyst onto the CoPc surface in the PTCBI/CoPc bilayer successfully led to dual catalysis in terms of the oxidation of N2H4 to N2. To develop the present dual catalysis Ag loading was essential to achieve the catalysis performance particularly without irradiation. An organic p–n bilayer induced the catalysis for hydrazine oxidation both under irradiation and in the dark particularly when Ag particles were employed as co-catalyst.![]()

Abstract
In this work, ZnO nanocrystals (NCs) have been effectively synthesized by a simple, efficient and cost-effective method using coconut husk extract as a novel fuel. The synthesized NCs are characterized by UV-Vis, XRD, FT-IR, SEM, EDX, Raman and PL studies. The obtained ZnO were found to be UV-active with a bandgap of 2.93 eV. The X-ray diffraction pattern confirms the crystallinity of the ZnO with hexagonally structured ZnO with a crystallite size of 48 nm, while the SEM analysis reveals the hexagonal bipyramid morphology. Photocatalytic activities of the synthesized ZnO NCs are used to degrade methylene blue and metanil yellow dyes.

Abstract
Photocatalytic solar energy transformation is the most encouraging solution to alleviate the environmental crisis and energy scarcity. Bismuth oxyhalide (BiOX) is an emerging class of materials that exhibits photocatalytic properties, such as resilient response to light, which causes enhanced energy conversion (solar energy) owing to their exceptional layered structure and attractive band structure. The present review presents a summary of results from the recent developments on the tuning and design of BiOX-based materials to improve the energy conversion. In particular, the preparation and tuning approaches that have the potential to enhance the photocatalytic behavior of BiOX and some other techniques, such as elemental doping, are addressed, which prevent the rapid recombination of charges, and formation of oxygen vacancies, facilitating an improvement in the photocatalytic reaction. Various frameworks are also presented, displaying the significance of BiOX-based nanocomposites. Finally, the main challenges and opportunities associated with the future progress of BiOX-based materials are presented. This review will provide an extended understanding and offer a preferred direction for the innovative design of BiOX-based materials for environmental and especially energy-based applications.
