The investigation involved testing four activating agents H₃PO₄, H₂SO₄, NaOH, and ZnCl₂ on Nicotiana glauca Graham (NgG) to assess their effects. By employing an experimental design, we successfully determined the optimal conditions for this activation process. The resulting activated carbon was then evaluated for its effectiveness in removing two phenolic pollutants, Bisphenol A (BPA) and β-naphthol (BNL). Analysis using FTIR revealed various functional groups on the activated carbon surface, including P = O, P-O-C aromatics, and O-H groups, which played a crucial role in the adsorption of BPA and BNL. XRD analysis indicated that the optimal adsorbent was amorphous, while Zeta potential measurements showed a significant decrease in pollutant removal rates after reaching a pH level of nearly 10. The activated carbon produced from H₃PO₄ exhibited a surface area of 1078 m²/g. Experimental adsorption results at the highest removal rate showed q_BPAs = 125.82 mg/g for BPA and q_BNLs = 62.82 mg/g for BNL in individual mode, while in the mixed mode, q_BPAm = 16.22 mg/g for BPA and q_BNLm = 16.04 mg/g for BNL were observed. To enhance our study, we utilized Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations to identify the most electrophilic and nucleophilic regions on BPA and BNL. The analysis highlighted the hydroxyl groups (–OH) of BNL and BPA as the most significant negative zones, crucial for understanding the underlying mechanisms and explaining the experimental observations. In the isotherm analysis, we identified the Temkin model in a singular mode and the Langmuir model in a mixture mode, showcasing a notable distinction between the two modes.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":391,"journal":{"name":"Microchemical Journal","volume":"208 ","pages":"Article 112281"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142757618","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study introduces an innovative fluorescence-based sensor employing fully synthetic carbon dot (CDs) functionalized molecularly imprinted polymer (CDs@nanoMIPs) receptors to detect this foodborne pathogenic bacterium. The CDs@nanoMIPs synthesis was accomplished using a solid-phase approach, with an immunodominant epitope of <em>C. jejuni</em> serving as a guiding template. During the polymerization process, nitrogen-doped CDs were synthesized in situ and incorporated into nanoMIPs as a fluorescent tag, constituting approximately 19 % of the composite. The synthesized nanomaterials were characterized by employing transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), dynamic light scattering (DLS), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), fluorescence microscopy, UV–Vis spectrophotometry, and fluorescence spectrometry. CDs@nanoMIPs demonstrated a notable blue fluorescence when excited at 350 nm, along with excellent photostability and a negative zeta potential. These nanostructured particles (59 nm) exhibited moderate polydispersity and a spherical morphology. The FT-IR spectrum deviated from that of conventional CDs, aligning more closely with the template epitope.
