This method offers unprecedented control over the structural properties of BNPs and in general nanoalloys, with the polymer matrix playing a critical role in regulating nanoparticle formation, spatial arrangement, and size uniformity. The PDGDA matrix enhances nanoparticle stability through steric stabilization and controlled diffusion, effectively maintaining small nanoparticle sizes (∼2.4-2.8 nm) and low dispersity (<i>σ</i> <sub>D</sub>/<i>D</i> = 0.16) during extended high-temperature annealing. Confinement of nanoparticles (NPs) was significantly accelerated by successive thermal annealing to 320 °C, which increased polymer chain mobility and reduced viscosity, enabling rapid diffusion while preserving the structural integrity of the polymer matrix. This process dramatically reduced the embedding time from 12 days at room temperature to near-instantaneous incorporation upon heating. Successful confinement is attributed to key thermodynamic factors that promote interfacial interactions and particle mobility within the polymer network. Experimental results reveal distinctive UV plasmonic properties of the embedded AgPt BNPs with long-term stability. The produced AgPt BNPs exhibit significantly stronger localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPRs) than pure platinum nanoparticles, attributed to synergistic effects between the two metals. Factors contributing to this enhancement include silver's high electrical conductivity and relatively low optical losses, electromagnetic coupling, and localized electric field enhancement, highlighting the potential of these BNPs for advanced plasmonics.

However, their practical applications are limited by poor environmental stability. To address this challenge, we employ a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF), specifically ZIF-8, as a stabilizing matrix for its exceptional thermal and chemical stability, high surface area, and versatile synthesis routes. The CPB/ZIF-8 nanocomposite was synthesized by integrating hot-injection-produced CPB NCs with ZIF-8 using an optimized mixing approach, ensuring a uniform NCs distribution. Electron microscopy (EM) analysis confirmed the well-controlled and uniform distribution of the NCs on the surface of the ZIF-8. Moreover, the Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) revealed ligand exchange, where the imidazole linkers of the ZIF-8 structure replace the NCs ligands. The process advances almost epitaxial attachment of the latter, thus promoting effective charge interactions in the integration process. Indeed, we observe that upon formation of the composite, there is a 92% quenching in the photoluminescence (PL) of the NCs. This finding further indicates efficient charge separation and reduced electron-hole recombination. To gain deeper insight into the charge transfer mechanisms, we conducted electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements to compare the radical generation capabilities of CPB and ZIF with those of the CPB/ZIF composite. The composite exhibited superior radical generation capabilities, particularly hydroxyl radicals (˙OH), indicating enhanced charge transfer. These findings suggest that the composite is a highly promising candidate for photocatalysis. Building on these findings, we explored the photocatalytic abilities of the composite through dye degradation experiments, using methyl orange (MO) and bromocresol green (BCG) as model dyes. The CPB/ZIF nanocomposite demonstrated significantly enhanced photocatalytic performance compared to pristine ZIF and CPB NCs. Specifically, its degradation rates were 1.48× and 1.75× higher for MO and BCG, respectively, than those of CPB NCs. This improvement highlights the effective interaction between CPB NCs and ZIF, establishing the CPB/ZIF nanocomposite as a promising material for photocatalysis and optoelectronic applications.</p>","PeriodicalId":18806,"journal":{"name":"Nanoscale Advances","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12076080/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144078661","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}

Ricinoleic acid (RA), which differs from oleic acid by the presence of an additional hydroxyl group, has surprisingly remained unexplored in the preparation of metal oxide nanoparticles, although it offers the advantage over oleic acid of easy functionalization due to the presence of the hydroxyl group. Here is a simple one-pot procedure for the synthesis of a variety of superparamagnetic nanoparticles, iron oxides and ferrites, using RA both as a precursor complexing agent and as a capping agent outlined. This procedure overcomes the challenges associated with the traditional thermal decomposition method, which demands separate precursor preparation and purification steps, thus promoting a simple yet scalable economic production of various magnetic nanoparticles. Minor changes in the reaction conditions allowed for the production of nanoparticles with different sizes, ranging from 5 to 17 nm, as well as different shapes, spherical and cuboid. Iron oxide nanospheres with an average particle size of 10 nm were superparamagnetic at room temperature with a saturation magnetization of 41 emu g<sup>-1</sup>. The as-prepared RA-coated nanoparticles are hydrophobic and dispersible in non-polar solvents but may easily be rendered hydrophilic and water dispersible; epoxidation, followed by alkaline ring-opening, produced hydroxylated nanoparticles with a positive zeta potential of 31 eV, whereas exchange of the capping RA with nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) gave nanoparticles with a negative zeta potential of -25 eV.

An emerging strategy within this field is gene delivery, which can enhance the efficacy of immune cells. Nanocarrier-based gene delivery methods have gained prominence due to their ability to protect and transport genetic material into cells efficiently. Polymeric nanocarriers, in particular, offer significant advantages, such as customizable physical and chemical properties, biocompatibility, and the potential for targeted delivery. Among polymeric nanocarriers, poly(β-amino ester) (PBAE) polymers are notable for their biodegradability, low cytotoxicity, and high gene transfection efficiency. This study investigates the synthesis and characterization of low molecular weight PBAE nanocarriers, assessing their potential in gene delivery applications for Jurkat and primary T cells-both crucial in cancer immunotherapy. Our research involved synthesizing PBAE polymer and creating nanocarriers at various DNA-to-polymer ratios. We characterized these nanocarriers in terms of size, zeta potential, and encapsulation efficiency. Confocal microscopy and flow cytometry were utilized to evaluate cellular uptake and transfection efficiency. The results demonstrated appropriate transfection efficiency and significant gene expression in both hard-to-transfect cell types (jurkat up to 37% and primary T cell 5%), with optimized DNA-to-polymer ratios showing minimal cytotoxicity. This study highlights the potential of PBAE nanocarriers in enhancing gene delivery for cancer immunotherapy. By effectively transfecting T cells, these nanocarriers could improve the therapeutic outcomes of immunotherapy, offering a promising pathway for developing more effective cancer treatments.</p>","PeriodicalId":18806,"journal":{"name":"Nanoscale Advances","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12057721/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144018341","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}
