Since bare metals like aluminum (Al) are prone to limitations such as microbial contamination and corrosion, it is imperative to develop a sustainable substrate using infinitely recyclable aluminum, with robust antimicrobial activity. This study reports broad-spectrum antibiofilm and antimicrobial activity of electro-chemically deposited reduced graphene oxide on aluminum (rGO-Al) substrates toward clinically important pathogens, Gram-negative <i>E</i>. coli, Gram-positive <i>S. aureus</i>, and fungus <i>C. albicans</i>. This further evaluates the knowledge gap by correlating the observed antimicrobial properties of rGO-Al materials to the possible mechanism(s). Next, measurements of water contact angle and 4-probe conductivity tests confirm the hydrophobic and conducting nature of the synthesized substrates respectively. In vitro, experimental results show that rGO-Al substrates can significantly inhibit the growth and viability of test organisms. While scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses confirm contact-mediated cell membrane damage, fluorescence microscopy reveals potent antibiofilm activity of test substrates. Alterations in membrane potential and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production provide further evidence for the antimicrobial activity via microbial membrane disruption. Thus, a perspective mechanism is proposed, where the surface hydrophobicity of rGO-Al promotes a stable interaction with the microbes. Further, conductivity-driven-electron transfer induces ROS production leading to membrane damage. Current research will facilitate the development of high-performance aluminum-based nanomaterials that can replace bare Al in the industrial and biomedical sectors. The sustainable nature of rGO-Al substrates will enhance the longevity and functionality of underneath Al surface by inhibiting microbial colonization and concurrent outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":115,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Materials Interfaces","volume":"12 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/admi.202400637","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143497165","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, a multifunctional passivation technique is introduced, designed to enhance the efficiency and stability of printable, air-processed PSCs with laminated carbon electrodes.

Optimal SnPC surface treatment reduces the trap density in the perovskite layer from 2.1 × 10<sup>15</sup> to 1.5 × 10<sup>15</sup> cm<sup>−3</sup>, increases carrier mobility (from 2.7 × 10<sup>−3</sup> to 2.8 × 10<sup>−3</sup> cm<sup>2</sup> Vs<sup>−1</sup>), and extends carrier lifetime.

Devices treated with an optimal SnPC concentration exhibit significant efficiency improvements, from 6.4% to 8.5%, along with a threefold increase in photo-stability.

Thermal annealing of GaN films is performed in the temperature range of 900–1200 °C. Crystal structure, phase formation, chemical composition, surface morphology, and microstructure evolution of Ga─O─N films are investigated as a function of temperature. Increasing temperature induces surface oxidation, which results in the formation of stable β-Ga<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> phase in the GaN matrix, where the overall film composition evolves from nitride (GaN) to oxynitride (Ga─O─N). While GaN surfaces are smooth, planar, and featureless, oxidation induced granular-to-rod shaped morphology evolution is seen with increasing temperature to 1200 °C. The considerable texturing and stability of the nanocrystalline Ga─O─N on Si substrates can be attributed to the surface and interface driven modification because of thermal treatment. Corroborating with structure and chemical changes, Raman spectroscopic analyses also indicate that the chemical bonding evolution progresses from fully Ga─N bonds to Ga─O─N. While the GaN oxidation process starts with the formation of β-Ga<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> at an annealing temperature of 1000 °C, higher annealing temperatures induce structural distortion with the potential formation of Ga─O─N bonds.

This study investigates how double-stranded DNA of varying sizes affects the protein corona (PC) surrounding Graphene Oxide (GO) nanosheets in DNA-supplemented human plasma. The findings reveal that DNA plays a pivotal role in modulating the PC composition through dynamic competition governed by factors like surface charge, affinity, and DNA fragment size. At lower DNA concentrations, competition between DNA and proteins for binding sites on GO leads to a corona predominantly composed of proteins, with some DNA molecules also bound. However, as the DNA concentration increases beyond a threshold, a shift occurs. DNA increasingly outcompetes proteins for binding sites, resulting in a two-component corona enriched with both DNA and proteins. Notably, the proportion of DNA within the corona progressively increases with rising DNA concentration, while the protein content decreases. This dynamic interplay between DNA and proteins has significant biological implications. A monotonic increase in Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) activation is observed as the DNA content within the corona increases. As the corona composition and its influence on cellular responses are crucial, this study emphasizes the relevance of exploring competition at the bio-nano interface for the advancement of these applications.</p>","PeriodicalId":115,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Materials Interfaces","volume":"12 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/admi.202400560","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143645899","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

LDs are loaded with curcumin and Nile red, two lipophilic molecules with similar log P values. The loaded LDs are blended with liposomes, while curcumin and Nile red are tracked using confocal microscopy and spectroscopy. LDs remained intact, while curcumin was transferred in 5 min from LDs to liposomes. Nile red remained in LDs. The difference between curcumin and Nile red is attributed to the amphiphilicity of curcumin, which allowed its adsorption in the LD monolayer and the subsequent transportation to the liposome bilayer upon contact. The unique selectivity of LDs is shown as carriers since lipophilic cargo is transferred to the lipid bilayer only when participating in the LD membrane.
