The graphitic carbon dot surface is doped with heteroatom functional groups such (S, P, K, Mg, Zn) = 1%, in addition to the additional passivating agent (N), according to the EDX surface morphology and the spontaneous heteroatom doping was caused by the heterogeneous chemical composition of pumpkin seeds. These spontaneous heteroatom-doped N-CDs possess quasispherical amorphous graphitic structure with an average size of less than 10 nm and the interplaner distance of 0.334 nm. Calculations utilising cyclic voltammetry showed that the heteroatom-doped N-CDs placed on nickel electrodes had a high specific capacitance value of 1044 F/g at a scan rate of 10 mV/s in 3 M of KOH electrolyte solution. Furthermore, it demonstrated a high energy and power density of 28.50 Wh/kg and 3350 W/kg, respectively. The higher value of specific capacitance and energy density were attributed to the fact that the Ni/CDs electrode material possesses both EDLC and PC properties due to the sufficient surface area and the multiple active sites of the prepared N-CDs. Furthermore, the heteroatom N-CDs revealed the antifungal action and bioimaging of the \"Cladosporium cladosporioides\" mould, which is mostly accountable for economic losses in agricultural products. The functional groups of nitrogen, sulphur, phosphorus, and zinc on the surface of the CDs have strong antibacterial and antifungal properties as well as fluorescence enhanced bioimaging.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":715,"journal":{"name":"Nanoscale Research Letters","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2023-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10593680/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49694810","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}

Calcium (Ca<sup>2+</sup>) and magnesium (Mg<sup>2+</sup>) are alkaline earth metals present in natural surface water and severely exacerbate organic fouling owing to their ability to cause charge neutralization, complexation, and bridging of NOM and the membrane surface. Hence, it is of practical significance to engineer membranes with properties suitable for addressing organic fouling in the presence of these cations. This study employed OH-functionalized molybdenum disulphide (OH–MoS<sub>2</sub>) nanosheets as nanofillers via the interfacial polymerization reaction to engineer NF membranes for enhanced removal of NOM and fouling mitigation performance. At an optimized concentration of 0.010 wt.% of OH–MoS<sub>2</sub> nanosheet, the membrane was endowed with higher hydrophilicity, negative charge and rougher membrane morphology which enhanced the pure water permeance by 46.33% from 11.2 to 16.39 L m<sup>−2</sup> h<sup>−1</sup> bar<sup>−1</sup> while bridging the trade-off between permeance and salt selectivity. The fouling performance was evaluated using humic acid (HA) and sodium alginate (SA), which represent the hydrophobic and hydrophilic components of NOM in the presence of 0, 0.5, and 1 mM Ca<sup>2+</sup> and Mg<sup>2+</sup>, respectively, and the performance was benchmarked with control and commercial membranes. The modified membrane exhibited normalized fluxes of 95.09% and 93.26% for HA and SA, respectively, at the end of the 6 h filtration experiments, compared to the control membrane at 89.71% and 74.25%, respectively. This study also revealed that Ca<sup>2+</sup> has a more detrimental effect than Mg<sup>2+</sup> on organic fouling and NOM removal. The engineered membrane outperformed the commercial and the pristine membranes during fouling tests in the presence of 1 mM Ca<sup>2+</sup> and Mg<sup>2+</sup> in the feed solution. In summary, this study has shown that incorporating OH–MoS<sub>2</sub> nanosheets into membranes is a promising strategy for producing potable water from alternative water sources with high salt and NOM contents.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":715,"journal":{"name":"Nanoscale Research Letters","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2023-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10593713/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49694811","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}

However, the interest in increasing their photoluminescence properties is not always accompanied by cytocompatibility. Thus, a knowledge gap exists regarding their interactions with biological systems linked to the selected formulations and synthesis methods. In this work, we have developed carbon dots (CDs) based on poly (ethylene imine) (PEI) and chitosan (CS) by using microwave irradiation, hydrothermal synthesis, and a combination of both, and further characterized them by physicochemical and biological means. Our results indicate that synthesized CDs have sizes between 1 and 5 nm, a high presence of amine groups on the surface, and increased positive ζ potential values. Further, it is established that the choice and use of different synthesis procedures can contribute to a different answer to the CDs regarding their optical and biological properties. In this regard, PEI-only CDs showed the longest photoluminescent emission lifetime, non-hemolytic activity, and high toxicity against fibroblast. On the other hand, CS-only CDs have higher PL emission, non-cytotoxicity associated with fibroblast, and high hemolytic activity. Interestingly, their combination using the proposed methodologies allow a synergic effect in their CDs properties. Therefore, this work contributes to developing and characterizing CD formulations based on PEI and CS and better understanding the CD’s properties and biological interaction.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":715,"journal":{"name":"Nanoscale Research Letters","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2023-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10581970/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41241610","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}

This changing trend is obviously different from the on-state resistance, which decreases with the increased carrier lifetime. The simulation result indicates that the heat generation (i.e., maximum temperature rise) inside the PiN diodes, especially in the drift layer, is remarkably aggravated in the pulse tests for <i>τ</i> &lt; 0.1 μs, but which is significantly suppressed as carrier lifetime rises to 0.2 μs and above.

However, few studies paid attention to this aspect. Here, the effect of TCM-based nanoparticles with different morphologies on their antiviral activity was explored by synthesizing rhein/silver nanocomposites (Rhe@AgNPs) with spherical (S-Rhe/Ag) and linear (L-Rhe/Ag) morphologies, using rhein (an active TCM ingredient) as a reducing agent and taking its self-assembly advantage. Using porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) as a model virus, the inhibitory effects of S-Rhe/Ag and L-Rhe/Ag on PRRSV were compared. Results showed that the product morphology could be regulated by varying pH values, and both S- and L-Rhe/Ag exhibited good dispersion and stability, but with a smaller size for L-Rhe/Ag. Antiviral experiments revealed that Rhe@AgNPs could effectively inhibit PRRSV infection, but the antiviral effect was morphology-dependent. Compared with L-Rhe/Ag, S-Rhe/Ag could more effectively inactivate PRRSV in vitro and antagonize its adsorption, invasion, replication, and release stages. Mechanistic studies indicated that Rhe@AgNPs could reduce the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced by PRRSV infection, and S-Rhe/Ag also had stronger ROS inhibitory effect. This work confirmed the inhibitory effect of Rhe@AgNPs with different morphologies on PRRSV and provided useful information for treating PRRSV infection with metal nanoparticles synthesized from TCM ingredients.</p><h3>Graphical abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":715,"journal":{"name":"Nanoscale Research Letters","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2023-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10564707/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41221945","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}

Nevertheless, the understanding of their fundamental material composition, chemical reactions, toxicological properties, and research methodologies is constrained and extensively elucidated during their practical implementation. The importance of producing IONPs using advanced nanofabrication techniques that exhibit strong potential for disease therapy, microbial pathogen control, and elimination of cancer cells is underscored by the adoption of the green synthesis approach.
