Diverse techniques have been developed for the manufacture, purification, and functionalization of CNTs in order to overcome these issues. The main aim of this review article is to provide brief knowledge about CNTs and strategies to use this revolutionized nanomaterial in drug delivery. Prepare CNTs cannot be directly used as drug carrier molecules due to the presence of impurities, so purification is an essential aspect of their use. In addition, various functionalization procedures are used frequently for drug conjugation with other benefits, such as reduced toxicity and targeted delivery. Their nano needle structure can penetrate any cell without damaging it with improved efficiency in targeted drug delivery, cancer cell identification, anticancer molecule delivery, antifungal treatment, and transdermal approaches.

The primary focus of this study was the concurrent separation of diverse tetracycline antibiotics (TCs), followed by rigorous reversed-phase liquid chromatography analysis. The fabricated CS/Fe@PDA sorbent beads were comprehensively characterized using scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, revealing a surface rich in active carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and oxygen (O) moieties. The proposed method demonstrated substantial analytical robustness, enabling the sorbent bead to detect low concentrations of TCs, with limit of detection values ranging from 142 to 303 μg L-1. Notably, the established linear range of 450-2000 μg L-1 extended the applicability of this approach to food and pharmaceutical product analysis. This study anticipated a paradigm shift in sample pre-treatment methodologies for TC analysis and envisions CS/Fe@PDA beads as a valuable tool for further advancements in separation science. The proposed bio-sorbent introduced a promising avenue for optimizing TC analysis, contributing to broader goals of food safety and pharmaceutical quality assurance.

Nanoemulsion technology has emerged as an indispensable solution for addressing these challenges, not only enhancing the stability of cosmetics but also improving the solubility of pharmaceuticals and active ingredients with poor solubility. Nanoemulsion formulations have reinforced stability and amended the bioavailability of hydrophobic drugs. Moreover, nanoemulsion exhibit excellent skin penetration and long-lasting effects, making them particularly appealing to consumers, especially in the cosmetic industry. This article aims to provide an overview of herbal nanoemulsion formulations as cosmetic products, covering formulation, production, and characterization. Herbal nanoemulsions is an effective, stable, and promising option for cosmetic delivery. The nanoemulsions were characterized by their key properties, such as particle size, polydisperse index (PDI), zeta potential, viscosity, stability and others. Techniques like zeta potential measurement, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electronmicroscopy (SEM) were used to analyze the surface morphology, whereas stability tests were employed to evaluate nanoemulsion performance. This review also delves into the high-energy and the low-energy methods of manufacturing nanoemulsions. Additionally, we also explore the selection of appropriate surfactants, co-surfactants, and ingredients for creating herbal nanoemulsions with desirable attributes and qualities. Overall, this review consolidates the current knowledge on herbal nanoemulsion formulations for cosmetic preparations, designs, shedding light on their effectiveness, characteristics, and stability.

Rapid screening is an effective way for food safety control, which highly relies on the development of sensitive, specific, and convenient detection methods. The multicolor colorimetric biosensors based on gold nanomaterials have evolved into advanced tools for detecting various hazards in food, with intuitive readout. The excellent localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) properties of gold nanomaterials enable them to exhibit bright colors when used as chromophores. In addition, the small changes in the morphology of gold nanomaterials can lead to significant changes in the wavelength of the LSPR peak, resulting in vivid color changes. Since the color discrimination ability of the normal human eye is usually superior to the intensity change ability, the way in which different concentrations of targets represent vivid color changes makes it feasible to fabricate sensors with improved accuracy in visual semi-quantitative detection. By combining with various signal amplification strategies, the detection sensitivity of the constructed sensors can be further improved, even reaching the level of pg/mL. In this review, two strategies for changing the morphology of gold nanomaterials in constructing multicolor colorimetric biosensors, namely the etching strategy and the growth strategy were discussed. We also highlight current progress in developing different gold nanomaterial-based multicolor colorimetric biosensors for detecting various hazards in food. The hazards in food samples are classified as pathogens, mycotoxins, indicators of food freshness, pesticides, antibiotics, heavy metal ions, food additives, and hazards from food processing and packaging.
