[PMID: 38960050 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.142748] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2024] [Revised: 06/23/2024] [Accepted: 06/29/2024] [Indexed: 07/05/2024]
Abstract
In this report, we have developed highly water soluble and stable silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) utilizing N-Cholyl Mercapto Histidine (NCMH) as a reducing and stabilizing agent with near the primary critical micellar concentration (CMC) under ambient sunlight irradiation. Moreover, The NCMH was firstly synthesized by demonstrating the reaction between cholic acid and 2- Mercapto Histidine through a simple acid amine coupling approach. The primary and secondary CMC of NCMH surfactant was measured by pyrene (1 × 10-6 M) as a fluorescent probe, and values were found to be 3.2 and 13.1 mM respectively. The synthesized Ag NPs showed at neutral pH and highly stable for more than one year without any noticeable aggregation. The TEM analysis displays the synthesized Ag NPs having a spherical shape and average size of 9.6 ± 0.5 nm. The synthesis of stabilized Ag NPs was used for ultra-sensitive and selective detection of Hg2+ ions in aqueous medium were monitored by Uv-visible spectrometer and naked eyes with a lowest limit of detection (LOD) 7 nM. The photo-catalytic degradation of methyl orange (MO) by utilizing Ag NPs as nano-catalyst exhibits a potential degradation within a study period of 180 min. Concluding that, facile and cost effective green synthesis of NCMH capped Ag NPs possess excellent reducing ability towards the selective detection of Hg2+ ions along with photo-catalytic degradation of MO dye. These true findings detached an innovative pathway of Ag NPs towards the reactivity against the catalytic activity of dye degradation and selective sensing of Hg2+ ions. Thus it paves the way for extensive range of novel potential applications of Ag NPs in various environment friendly approaches of sensitive and analytical protocol in the future.

Abstract
Herein we describe the facile synthesis of new N-doped carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) obtained from 1,10-phenanthroline by the solvothermal method. Characterization of CNPs were carried out with transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR), UV-vis absorption spectra, and luminescence spectra. CNPs were pH sensitive and exploited as fluorescent chemosensors and imaging agents for Al(III) and Zn(II) ions in real-life samples. Remarkably, we show that CNPs can be used for the detection of Al(III) and Zn(II) ions in water samples. Accordingly, the results indicate that CNPs are highly effective in detecting Zn(II) content of cosmetic creams. We also demonstrated that the CNPs could be used for in vitro imaging of Al(III) and Zn(II) in Human Larynx Squamous Cell Carcinoma (Hep-2). Finally, Al(III) imaging in Angelica Officinalis root tissue was also achieved successfully. The CNPs are promising as luminescent multianalyte (pH, Al(III) and Zn(II)) sensors.

Abstract
Carbon dots (CDs) have attracted significant research attention worldwide due to their unique properties and advantageous attributes, such as superior optical properties, biocompatibility, easy surface functionalization, and more. Moreover, biomass-derived CDs have attracted much attention because of their additional advantages related to more environmentally friendly and lower-cost synthesis. In this respect, chitosan has been recently explored for the preparation of CDs, which in comparison to other natural precursors exhibited additional advantages. Beyond the benefits related to the eco-friendly and abundant nature of chitosan, using it as a nanomaterial precursor offers additional benefits in terms of structure, morphology, and dopant elements. Furthermore, the high content of nitrogen in chitosan allows it to be used as a single carbon and nitrogen precursor for the preparation of N-doped CDs, significantly improving their fluorescent properties and, therefore, their performances. This review addresses the most recent advances in chitosan-based CDs with a special focus on synthesis methods, enhanced properties, and their applications in different fields, including biomedicine, the environment, and food packaging. Finally, this work also addresses the key challenges to be overcome to propose future perspectives and research to unlock their great potential for practical applications.

Abstract
Here we successfully developed a kind of carbon dot (CD), which emitted obvious orange-fluorescence, based on the hydrothermal method while polyacrylic acid was employed as the carbon source. The developed CDs have been equipped with multiple functional groups such as CO, -OH and -COOH, facilitating the possibility of interacting with potential targets. Meaningfully, the introduction of silver ions induced the fluorescence quenching of the as-prepared CDs. Meanwhile, the proposed CDs achieved detection of Ag+ with a linear range of 2.0 × 10-6 to 1.0 × 10-3 M at a detection limit of 1.8 × 10-6 M. Moreover, the further addition of glyphosine gradually recovered the fluorescence accompanied by the concentration of glyphosine varying from 7 × 10-6 to 10-2 M with a detection limit of 6.2 × 10-6 M. Thereby, the CDs prepared here show potential for broadening the avenues for detecting Ag+ and glyphosine.

Abstract
The increase in heavy metal contamination has led to an increase in studies investigating alternative sustainable ways to treat heavy metals. Nanotechnology has been shown to be an environmentally friendly technology for treating heavy metals and other contaminants from contaminated water. However, this technology is not widely used in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) due to high operational costs. The increasing interest in reducing costs by applying nanotechnology in wastewater treatment has resulted in an increase in studies investigating sustainable ways of producing nanoparticles. Certain researchers have suggested that sustainable and cheap raw materials must be used for the production of cheaper nanoparticles. This has led to an increase in studies investigating the production of nanoparticles from plant materials. Additionally, production of nanoparticles through biological methods has also been recognized as a promising, cost-effective method of producing nanoparticles. Some studies have shown that the recycling of nanoparticles can potentially reduce the costs of using freshly produced nanoparticles. This review evaluates the economic impact of these new developments on nanotechnology in wastewater treatment. An in-depth market assessment of nanoparticle application and the economic feasibility of nanoparticle applications in WWTPs is presented. Moreover, the challenges and opportunities of using nanoparticles for heavy metal removal are also discussed.

Abstract
The design and construction of a novel magnetic resonance switch (MRS) sensor for cadmium ion (Cd2+) detection is described. Fe3O4@ZIF-8 was synthesized through seed-mediated growth of dimercaptosuccinic acid-coated Fe3O4. Fe3O4@ZIF-8 with high relaxation value (163.086 mM−1 s−1) and large negative zeta potential (−20.69 mV) exhibited good magnetic relaxation performance and water solubility. The successfully synthesized Fe3O4@ZIF-8 was used to develop an immune recognition-based MOFs-MRS sensor for highly sensitive detection of Cd2+. The proposed MRS detected a wide linear range of Cd2+ concentration from 2 to 200 ng mL−1 with a low limit of detection of 0.65 ng mL−1 (S/N = 3), and displayed high selectivity towards matrix interference. The robust sensing system was effective even in a complex sample matrix, enabling the quantitative analysis of Cd2+ content in rice samples and drinking water samples with good reliability. Recoveries of Cd2+ ranged from 91.50 to 112.05% for spiked drinking water and from 95.86 to 110.45% for spiked rice samples. The versatility of Fe3O4@ZIF-8 with customized relaxation responses could allow the adaptation of magnetic resonance platforms for food safety purposes.

Abstract
Nitrite and sulfite play important roles in human health and environmental science, so it is desired to develop a facile and efficient method to evaluate NO2 - and SO3 2- concentrations. In this article, the use of green alternatives with the potential of multi-functionality has been synthesized to detect nitrite and sulfite based on fluorescent probe. The carbon dots (CDs) with starch as only raw materials show fluorescence turn "on-off-on" response towards NO2 - and SO3 2- with the limits of detection of 0.425 and 0.243 μМ, respectively. Once nitrite was present in the solution, the fluorescence of CDs was quenched rapidly due to the charge transfer. When sulfite was introduced, the quenching fluorescence of CDs was effectively recovered because of the redox reaction between NO2 - and SO3 2-, and thus providing a new way for NO2 - and SO3 2- detection. Owing to their excellent analytical characteristics and low cytotoxicity, the "on-off-on" sensor was successfully employed for intracellular bioimaging of NO2 - and SO3 2-.
