Graphene with a high specific surface area of about 362 m2 g−1 was obtained through the thermal separation of graphite oxide (GO), which had been synthesised from graphite by the Hummer method. The graphene-PVP blend was prepared by dispersing the graphene into a PVP solution and then crosslinking it to prevent washout by water. This crosslinking ensured a well-dispersed and stable graphene-PVP blend. The maximum adsorption capacity of graphene-PVP for Cu2+ and Cd2+ ions was found to be 158 mg g−1 and 134 mg g−1, respectively, at pH 3 and a contact time of 30 min. The experimental results were found to be consistent with Langmuir and pseudo-second-order kinetic models. The study further reveals that the adsorption mechanism of Cu2+ and Cd2+ ions on graphene-PVP follows an ion exchange mechanism, driven by strong interactions between PVP and metal ions.

This platform can act as a carrier for anticancer drugs or for insoluble bioactive compounds. To increase the stability and prolong the effect of anticancer drugs, we have incorporated a sulfated polysaccharide fucoidan (Fu) into PAMAM dendrimer G3.0 to form a G3.0-Fu complex. Then, a nano-sized encapsulated anticancer drug, methotrexate (MTX), was successfully embedded in the synthesised dendrimer complex namely G3.0-Fu/MTX. Newly synthesised G3.0-Fu/MTX was characterised by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and zeta potential measurement.Additionally, the loading efficiency of MTX was assessed via UV spectroscopy. Our findings revealed that upon combining with Fu, the G3.0 nanoparticle size increased from 4.3 ± 1.1 nm to 56 ± 6 nm. The changes in zeta potential aligned with drug entrapment efficiency and the results from TEM and DLS. The drug release activity of G3.0-Fu/MTX was increased compared to free MTX after 24 h. G3.0-Fu also showed high cytocompatibility in fibroblast cells. Taken together, the G3.0-Fu could be used to increase the encapsulation of several kinds of hydrophobic drugs and G3.0-Fu/MTX could be further studied in rheumatoid arthritis treatment.","PeriodicalId":7359,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Natural Sciences: Nanoscience and Nanotechnology","volume":"85 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2023-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138692268","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}

The resulting NGQDs-PEG exhibited highly stable PL with an emission peak at 424 nm when excited at 325 nm. The PL intensity of NGQDs with PEG increased with the volume of capping agents due to the enhancing luminescence effect of the surface functional group of polyethylene glycol. The optimal PEG amount of 2 wt% was found to improve the PL effect of NGQDs. Interestingly, the surface passivation of NGQDs with PEG enabled the NGQDs to exhibit strong PL performance across varying pH environments (from acidic to alkaline), addressing the issue of quenching of quantum dots in biological environments. Our research also focused on the ultrafast synthesis of NGQDs, where process parameters such as power value, catalyst volume, and reaction time were identified as important factors affecting NGQD luminescence. Our results showed that the optimal microwave power was 640 W, lower than that used in previous synthesis methods. Increasing the volume of catalyst promoted faster NGQD formation. The optimal reaction time was found to be 5 min, catalyst volume of 5 ml resulted in the highest PL intensity of NGQDs.","PeriodicalId":7359,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Natural Sciences: Nanoscience and Nanotechnology","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2023-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138692133","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}

Both adhesion force and time delaying were systematically investigated, showing their strong dependence on surface parameters and slipperiness. The uniform patterns of nanoscale textures inspired by rose leaf structure have been generated on silicon wafers using the plasma etching process. We believe the lower real contact area can play a dual role in the icing mechanism including reducing heat transfer and adhesion force attributed to the projected area. On the other hand, slipperiness plays an important role in reducing adhesion strength and preventing ice nucleation. The slippery superhydrophobic surface demonstrates outstanding in reducing the adhesion strength while documenting several times lower compared to bare Si, superhydrophobic Si, and slippery Si surfaces. In addition, the rational combination facilitates the efficient function after a number of test cycles, illustrating the mechanical anti-corrosion properties. The results lead to understanding the role of the icing process and designing the anti-icing structure.","PeriodicalId":7359,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Natural Sciences: Nanoscience and Nanotechnology","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2023-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138692267","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}

To achieve most favourable ratios of thioglycolic acid (TGA):zinc (Zn):sulphide (S), the concentration optimisation by optical spectra (COOS) method was adopted. The x-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra confirmed the zinc-blende (cubic) phase of ZnS quantum dots (QDs), and Scherrer’s method determined that on average, the QDs exhibit a size of 2 nm. The Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) study shows that characteristic peaks are consistent with the vibrational modes of the TGA ligands, confirming the capping. The quantum dots (QDs) synthesised displayed a significant effect of quantum confinement with blue shift in absorption peaks, compared with bulk ZnS absorption peak. Interestingly, on increasing the concentration of TGA, it resulted in red shift at the absorption edge, shifting from 300 nm to 314 nm. On the other hand, increasing the concentration of cation Zn and anion S ratio led to a blue shift, ranging from 315 to 295 nm, and a red shift, ranging from 280–320 nm, at absorption edges respectively. A prominent emission peak appeared at 428 nm. The application of Brus equation allowed estimating the size of the quantum dots (QDs) to be within the range of 2 to 2.7 nm, which correlated well with the Bohr’s radius of ZnS. This favourable property proposes the use of QDs in various optoelectronic devices.","PeriodicalId":7359,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Natural Sciences: Nanoscience and Nanotechnology","volume":"69 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2023-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138692200","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}

The average size of BSA-stabilized gold nanoparticles was found to be as small as 13 nm while the SiO2 @AuNPs nanocomposite showed a mean size of 204 nm. The experimental studies revealed that both BSA-stabilized gold nanoparticles and SiO2 @AuNPs nanocomposite exhibit intrinsic peroxidase-like activity. Hence, to explore more precise no their catalytic efficiency and substrate affinity of them, the kinetic characteristics of both nanozymes were quantified using the Menten kinetic model, and the provided results were compared. Upon using TMB as peroxidase substrate, Vmax of 0.022 µM min-1 and a Km of 0.06 mM for the SiO2 @AuNPs nanocomposite was achieved while for the BSA-stabilized gold nanoparticles, a Vmax and Km at about 0.263 μM min-1and 0.03 mM, in order, was estimated. The Vmax of BSA-stabilized gold nanoparticles was 12.0-fold higher than that of SiO2 @AuNPs nanocomposite, revealing that the catalytic efficiency of BSA-stabilized gold nanoparticles is 12.0-fold higher than SiO2 @AuNPs nanocomposite. Besides, the Km value of SiO2 @AuNPs nanocomposite was 2-order higher than that of BSA-stabilized gold nanoparticles, indicating that the substrate affinity toward BSA-stabilized gold nanoparticles is 2.0-order higher than the SiO2 @AuNPs nanocomposite. Since, the active nodes of both nanozymes are same (i.e., gold), the difference between their catalytic efficiency and affinity can be assigned to their different sizes and the ability of the active nodes to bind the substrate. Based on the results of this work, small-size BSA-stabilized gold nanoparticles are characteristically more efficient peroxidase mimic materials than the SiO2 @AuNPs nanocomposite.","PeriodicalId":7359,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Natural Sciences: Nanoscience and Nanotechnology","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136132959","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}
