Nanohybrids (NHs) and bionanohybrids (BNHs) photocatalysts have played a dynamic role in pollutant removal such as organic compounds and inorganic elements, from wastewater environment. Four types of NHs are majorly involved in pollutant removal: carbon–carbon, metal–metal, carbon–metal, and organic molecule-coated. These NHs and BNHs possess multifunctional characteristics and remarkable achievements in wastewater treatment, biomedical, agricultural, and industrial applications. Recently, researchers have developed different types of BNHs and found good achievements in dye (methyl orange, rhodamine B, and methylene blue) and heavy metal (cadmium, copper, chromium, lead, mercury, and nickel) removal from wastewater with an eco-friendly approach. In this review the major BNHs are cellulose, chitosan, gelatin, pectin, and silk proteins involved in the pollutant removal in water environments.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52296,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Environmental Science and Health","volume":"35 ","pages":"Article 100504"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49787355","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Silicone has shown the capacity to absorb and retain organic chemical pollutants that humans are frequently exposed to through inhalation and dermal exposure. Concentrations of pollutants captured in the wristbands can be quantified through optimized sample extraction and analysis. In this brief review, we summarized silicone wristband studies conducted between 2016 and 2022 that measured children's exposure to pollutants, such as pesticides, flame retardants and other persistent environmental pollutants. Recent advances in the use of wristbands for monitoring contaminant exposure in children include novel detections of phenols, nicotine, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, the use of polydimethylsiloxane bars for streamlined extraction, and high-resolution mass spectrometry for broad-spectrum evaluation of chemical exposures. Wristbands will continue to gain traction as passive samplers for assessing body burdens of organic pollutants in children, hence we propose future research directions, including additional methodological and validation studies, and long-term studies that investigate patterns, levels, and effects of exposure to organic pollutants in larger cohorts.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52296,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Environmental Science and Health","volume":"32 ","pages":"Article 100450"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49793961","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
