For example, mesoporous silicas (MSs) are attracting considerable attention due to their inherent properties such as large specific surface area, precise channels, tunable pore size, and promising physicochemical stability. These fascinating materials span a variety of applications in the area of catalysis, adsorption, gas storage, controlled-release systems, etc. On the other hand, Santa Barbara Amorphous no. 15 (SBA-15) comes under the silica-based mesoporous material with hexagonal channels of pore size in the range of 2–30 nm, known for its potential applications in biology, i.e. drug delivery, biomedical devices, and sensing. Further, the binding ability of SBA-15 with both hydrophilic and hydrophobic drugs and biocompatibility make it an excellent option for developing various biomedical devices. SBA-15's sorption capacity and performance can be altered by functionalising various groups on its surface. Such functionalisation makes this inorganic nanostructured material suitable for a wide range of biomedical applications. The future of SBA-15 lies in its ability to take biomedical applications to the next level, with a specific focus on wound healing, bone regeneration, and drug delivery. Its physicochemical properties and capacity for functionalisation make it an attractive material for use as next-gen bio-composites and tissue engineering scaffolds. However, so far, there is no dedicated review available in this particular domain. Hence, we propose the review focuses on the biomedical application of SBA-15 with special emphasis on wound healing, bone regeneration, sensors, drug delivery and as skin tissue engineering scaffolds.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":13599,"journal":{"name":"Inorganica Chimica Acta","volume":"585 ","pages":"Article 122766"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144107600","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Water quality has declined due to many human activities, such as swift commercialization, rapid population growth, a lack of systematic urban planning, and the improper utilization of available resources from nature. This study evaluates the presence and toxicity of heavy metal ions in wastewater, aiming to understand the environmental and public health risks associated with industrial discharge and urban runoff. The main causes of the perturbing rate of water pollution are the release of industrial wastewater. Humans have steadily discharged a vast array of organic and inorganic pollutants into ecosystems. The detrimental effects of heavy metal ions (viz., Ni, Cu, Cr, Pb, Zn and Ar, and Hg) on ecosystems and animals have led to their classification as a priority pollution category by Environmental Protection Agency. More than 4000 kg/m³ of atomic densities of metal and metalloids are considered as Heavy metals. The presence of these toxic metals poses substantial risks to human health, including potential damage to the nervous system, kidneys, and other vital organs, as well as detrimental effects on aquatic ecosystems. Heavy metals pose a significant environmental threat due to their persistence and propensity to accumulate in various stable forms within ecosystems. Unlike organic pollutants, heavy metals are non-biodegradable and can remain in the environment for extended periods, led to long-term ecological and health impacts worldwide. The study underscores the urgent need for regular monitoring and effective treatment of industrial wastewater to mitigate heavy metal pollution. Implementing stringent waste management practices and adopting advanced remediation technologies are crucial steps toward safeguarding environmental and public health.
