Cysteine-Grafted Cu MOF/ZnO/PANI Nanocomposite for Nonenzymatic Electrochemical Sensing of Dopamine.

Project description:Electrochemical sensing has shown great promise in monitoring neurotransmitter levels, particularly dopamine, essential for diagnosing neurological illnesses like Parkinson's disease. Such techniques are easy, cost-effective, and extremely sensitive. The present investigation discusses the synthesis, characterization, and potential use of a cysteine-grafted Cu MOF/ZnO/PANI nanocomposite deposited on the modified glassy carbon electrode surface for nonenzymatic electrochemical sensing of dopamine. The synthesized nanocomposite was confirmed through X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, Raman, and scanning electron microscopy characterization techniques. Additionally, electrochemical analysis was conducted using cyclic voltammogram, differential pulse voltammetry, and chronoamperometry. The process was determined to be the diffusion-controlled oxidation of dopamine. Dopamine underwent spontaneous adsorption on the electrode surface through an electrochemically reversible mechanism. Despite various biological interfering factors, the nonenzymatic electrochemical sensor demonstrated a remarkable level of selectivity toward dopamine. Cysteine-grafted Cu MOF/ZnO/PANI produced the lowest dopamine detection limit, at 0.39 μM, and the sensitivity was observed as 122.57 μAmM-1 cm-2. Results have demonstrated that enhanced catalytic and conductive properties of MOFs, combined with nanostructured materials, are the primary factors affecting the sensor's performance.

Enhanced removal of hexavalent chromium from aqueous media using a highly stable and magnetically separable rosin-biochar-coated TiO2@C nanocomposite.

Project description:Recently, nanosized metal-oxides have been extensively investigated for their ability to remove metal ions from aqueous media. However, the activity and capacity of these nanosized metal-oxides for removing metal ions decrease owing to their agglomeration in aqueous media. Herein, we synthesized a highly stable and magnetically separable rosin-biochar-coated (RBC) TiO2@C nanocomposite through a facile and environment-friendly wet chemical coating process, followed by a one-step heating route (pyrolysis) for efficient removal of Cr(vi) from aqueous solution. An array of techniques, namely, TEM, HRTEM, TEM-EDS, XRD, FTIR, VSM, BET and TGA, were used to characterize the prepared nanocomposite. The pyrolysis of rosin into biochar and the fabrication of Fe onto the RBC-TiO2@C nanocomposite were confirmed by FTIR and XRD examination, respectively. Moreover, TEM and HRTEM images and elemental mapping using TEM-EDS showed good dispersion of iron and carbon on the surface of the RBC-TiO2@C nanocomposite. Sorption of Cr(vi) ions on the surface of the RBC-TiO2@C nanocomposite was very fast and efficient, having a removal efficiency of ∼95% within the 1st minute of reaction. Furthermore, thermodynamic analysis showed negative values of Gibb's free energy at all five temperatures, indicating that the adsorption of Cr(vi) ions on the RBC-TiO2@C nanocomposite was favorable and spontaneous. Conclusively, our results indicate that the RBC-TiO2@C nanocomposite can be used for efficient removal of Cr(vi) from aqueous media due to its novel synthesis and extraordinary adsorption efficacy during a short time period.

Synthesis of Fe2SiO4-Fe7Co3 Nanocomposite Dispersed in the Mesoporous SBA-15: Application as Magnetically Separable Adsorbent.

Project description:The mixture containing alloy and oxide with iron-based phases has shown interesting properties compared to the isolated species and the synergy between the phases has shown positive effect on dye adsorption. This paper describes the synthesis of Fe2SiO4-Fe7Co3-based nanocomposite dispersed in Santa Barbara Amorphous (SBA)-15 and its application in dye adsorption followed by magnetic separation. Thus, it was studied the variation of reduction temperature and amount of hydrogen used in synthesis and the effect of these parameters on the physicochemical properties of the iron and cobalt based oxide/alloy mixture, as well as the methylene blue adsorption capacity. The XRD and Mössbauer results, along with the temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) profiles, confirmed the formation of Fe2SiO4-Fe7Co3-based nanocomposites. Low-angle XRD, N2 isotherms, and TEM images show the formation of the SBA-15 based mesoporous support with a high surface area (640 m2/g). Adsorption tests confirmed that the material reduced at 700 °C using 2% of H2 presented the highest adsorption capacity (49 mg/g). The nanocomposites can be easily separated from the dispersion by applying an external magnetic field. The interaction between the dye and the nanocomposite occurs mainly by π-π interactions and the mixture of the Fe2SiO4 and Fe7Co3 leads to a synergistic effect, which favor the adsorption.

A novel CoFe2O4@Cr-MIL-101/Y zeolite ternary nanocomposite as a magnetically separable sonocatalyst for efficient sonodegradation of organic dye contaminants from water.

Project description:In this research, a novel magnetic sonocatalyst nanocomposite, CoFe2O4@Cr-MIL-101/Y zeolite, has been successfully fabricated employing a simple hydrothermal method. The as-prepared catalyst was thoroughly identified using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), EDS elemental dot-mapping, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and nitrogen Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (N2-BET) analyses. The procured CoFe2O4@Cr-MIL-101/Y nanocomposite was then assessed for the decomposition of three types of organic dyes namely methylene blue (MB), rhodamine B (RhB) and methyl orange (MO) from water solution using ultrasound irradiation and subsequently monitored via UV-Vis absorption technique. The sonodecomposition reactions of organic dyes were accomplished in the presence of the H2O2 solution as a green oxidizing agent. Furthermore, the influence of various experimental independent factors such as irradiation time, process type, initial dye concentration, catalyst dosage, H2O2 concentration, scavenger type, and catalyst regeneration on the decomposition of MB, RhB and MO were surveyed. Additionally, a first order kinetic model was applied to investigate the sonodecomposition reactions of dye contaminants. The rate constant (k) and half-life (t 1/2) data were gained as 0.0675 min-1 and 10.2666 min, respectively, for the decomposition of MB in the US/H2O2/CoFe2O4@Cr-MIL-101/Y system. Besides, evaluating the attained results, the distinctive performance of ˙OH as the radical scavenger originating from H2O2 throughout the sonodecomposition process is vividly approved.

Synthesis of multifunctional CuFe2O4-reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite: an efficient magnetically separable catalyst as well as high performance supercapacitor and first-principles calculations of its electronic structures.

Project description:Here, we report an 'in situ' co-precipitation reduction based synthetic methodology to prepare CuFe2O4 nanoparticle-reduced graphene oxide (CuFe2O4-RGO) nanocomposites. First principles calculations based on Density Functional Theory (DFT) were performed to obtain the electronic structures and properties of CuFe2O4, graphene and CuFe2O4-graphene composites, and to understand the interfacial interaction between CuFe2O4 and graphene in the composite. The synergistic effect, which resulted from the combination of the unique properties of RGO and CuFe2O4 nanoparticles, was exploited to design a magnetically separable catalyst and high performance supercapacitor. It has been demonstrated that the incorporation of RGO in the composite enhanced its catalytic properties as well as supercapacitance performance compared with pure CuFe2O4. The nanocomposite with 96 wt% CuFe2O4 and 4 wt% RGO (96CuFe2O4-4RGO) exhibited high catalytic efficiency towards (i) reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol, and (ii) epoxidation of styrene to styrene oxide. For both of these reactions, the catalytic efficiency of 96CuFe2O4-4RGO was significantly higher than that of pure CuFe2O4. The easy magnetic separation of 96CuFe2O4-4RGO from the reaction mixture and good reusability of the recovered catalyst also showed here. 96CuFe2O4-4RGO also demonstrated better supercapacitance performance than pure CuFe2O4. 96CuFe2O4-4RGO showed specific capacitance of 797 F g-1 at a current density of 2 A g-1, along with ∼92% retention for up to 2000 cycles. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first investigation on the catalytic properties of CuFe2O4-RGO towards the reduction of 4-nitrophenol and the epoxidation reaction, and DFT calculations on the CuFe2O4-graphene composite have been reported.

DFT and QSAR studies of PTFE/ZnO/SiO2 nanocomposite.

Project description:Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is one of the most significant fluoropolymers, and one of the most recent initiatives is to increase its performance by using metal oxides (MOs). Consequently, the surface modifications of PTFE with two metal oxides (MOs), SiO2 and ZnO, individually and as a mixture of the two MOs, were modeled using density functional theory (DFT). The B3LYPL/LANL2DZ model was used in the studies conducted to follow up the changes in electronic properties. The total dipole moment (TDM) and HOMO/LUMO band gap energy (∆E) of PTFE, which were 0.000 Debye and 8.517 eV respectively, were enhanced to 13.008 Debye and 0.690 eV in the case of PTFE/4ZnO/4SiO2. Moreover, with increasing nano filler (PTFE/8ZnO/8SiO2), TDM changed to 10.605 Debye and ∆E decreased to 0.273 eV leading to further improvement in the electronic properties. The molecular electrostatic potential (MESP) and quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) studies revealed that surface modification of PTFE with ZnO and SiO2 increased its electrical and thermal stability. The improved PTFE/ZnO/SiO2 composite can, therefore, be used as a self-cleaning layer for astronaut suits based on the findings of relatively high mobility, minimal reactivity to the surrounding environment, and thermal stability.

Nanocomposite Co3O4-ZnO Thin Films for Photoconductivity Sensors.

Project description:Thin nanocomposite films based on zinc oxide (ZnO) added with cobalt oxide (Co3O4) were synthesized by solid-phase pyrolysis. According to XRD, the films consist of a ZnO wurtzite phase and a cubic structure of Co3O4 spinel. The crystallite sizes in the films increased from 18 nm to 24 nm with growing annealing temperature and Co3O4 concentration. Optical and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy data revealed that enhancing the Co3O4 concentration leads to a change in the optical absorption spectrum and the appearance of allowed transitions in the material. Electrophysical measurements showed that Co3O4-ZnO films have a resistivity up to 3 × 104 Ohm∙cm and a semiconductor conductivity close to intrinsic. With advancing the Co3O4 concentration, the mobility of the charge carriers was found to increase by almost four times. The photosensors based on the 10Co-90Zn film exhibited a maximum normalized photoresponse when exposed to radiation with wavelengths of 400 nm and 660 nm. It was found that the same film has a minimum response time of ca. 26.2 ms upon exposure to radiation of 660 nm wavelength. The photosensors based on the 3Co-97Zn film have a minimum response time of ca. 58.3 ms versus the radiation of 400 nm wavelength. Thus, the Co3O4 content was found to be an effective impurity to tune the photosensitivity of radiation sensors based on Co3O4-ZnO films in the wavelength range of 400-660 nm.

Sulfonyl-bridged (copper-immobilized nickel ferrite) with activated montmorillonite, [(NiFe2O4@Cu)SO2(MMT)]: a new class of magnetically separable clay nanocomposite systems towards Hantzsch synthesis of coumarin-based 1,4-dihydropyridines.

Project description:In this study, the synthesis of a new class of magnetic clay-based nanocomposites by bridging of sulfonyl groups between copper-immobilized nickel ferrite (NiFe2O4@Cu) and activated montmorillonite is described. Synthesis of the clay nanocatalyst was carried out via the activation of montmorillonite by ClSO3H to afford sulfonated montmorillonite. The modified montmorillonite was then reacted with copper-layered nickel ferrite to afford the magnetic clay nanocomposite [(NiFe2O4@Cu)SO2(MMT)]. Next, the characterization of porous materials was carried out using scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller and vibrating sample magnetometer analyses. The obtained results showed that the clay nanocomposite containing a sulfonyl-bridge has a large surface area and magnetic properties versus the prepared one without the sulfonyl groups as (NiFe2O4@Cu)(MMT). The nanostructured clay had excellent catalytic activity towards the Hantzsch synthesis of coumarin-based 1,4-dihydropyridines via one-pot and three-component condensation of 4-hydroxycoumarin, aromatic aldehydes and ammonia. All reactions were carried out in water as a green and economic green solvent within 10-45 min to affords 1,4-DHPs in high to excellent yields. Reusability of the clay nanocomposite was investigated for six consecutive cycles without significant loss of catalytic activity. Based on this study, therefore, sulfonated montmorillonite could be considered an excellent support for the immobilization of magnetic materials.

Polydopamine functionalized hydrogel beads as magnetically separable antibacterial materials.

Project description:In the present study, magnetically separable hydrogel beads of ionically cross-linked alginate were functionalized with polydopamine (PDA). The rationale behind this was to enhance the structural stability and antibacterial profile of PDA/Alg/Fe3O4 beads (K3). Incorporation of superparamagnetic magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles endowed the hydrogel beads with magnetism. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed the successful formation of pure Alg/Fe3O4 nanoparticles having an inverse spinel structure. Vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) confirmed their superparamagnetic behaviour with M s values of 36.18 and 30.46 emu g-1 at 5 and 300 K, respectively. High resolution-transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM) images showed alginate capping and the size of the Alg/Fe3O4 nanoparticles (∼8 nm). The successful deposition of PDA granules on the K3 bead surface was verified by field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The PDA functionalization was further justified by VSM, XRD and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). During swelling experiments, K3 beads displayed appreciable structural stability compared to bare/non-functionalized beads. Wettability studies revealed K3 beads to be hydrophilic with a contact angle of ∼55°. Rheological parameters including storage modulus (G') and shear viscosity of K3 increased upon PDA functionalization. During antibacterial tests, K3 strongly inhibited E. coli, S. typhi, S. aureus and L. monocytogenes in a concentration and time dependent manner. Fluorescence staining experiments showed that K3 could greatly alter the bacterial membrane integrity. Reusability experiments with K3 beads substantiated their effective broad-spectrum antibacterial performance for three consecutive cycles.

Synthesis and anticancer evaluation of diaryl pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine /alkyl substituted pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives as thymidylate synthase inhibitors.

Project description:Worldwide, colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common type of cancer and the second most common cause of cancer-related deaths. Thymidylate synthase (TS) is a crucial component of DNA biosynthesis and has drawn interest as an essential target for cancer treatment. In the current work, we have designed and synthesized twenty-eight new diaryl-based pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine/alkyl-substituted pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives and evaluated their anticancer activity against the HCT 116, MCF-7, Hep G2, and PC-3 cell lines cell lines. Additionally, we have carried out TS inhibitory activity and in silico studies for compounds 1n and 2j. All the synthesized compounds exhibited good anticancer activity, but among them, compounds 1n and 2j showed excellent anticancer activity, having IC50 values of 1.98 ± 0.69, 2.18 ± 0.93, 4.04 ± 1.06, and 4.18 ± 1.87 µM; and 1.48 ± 0.86, 3.18 ± 0.79, 3.44 ± 1.51, and 5.18 ± 1.85 µM, against the HCT 116, MCF-7, Hep G2, and PC-3 cell lines respectively with control raltitrexed (IC50 1.07 ± 1.08, 1.98 ± 0.72, 1.34 ± 1.0, and 3.09 ± 0.96 µM, respectively) and hTS inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 20.47 ± 1.09 and 13.48 ± 0.96 nM with control raltitrexed (IC50 14.95 ± 1.01 nM). Further, the mechanism of inhibition was revealed by molecular docking, which showed the binding pattern of 1n and 2j to the catalytic site of TS with docking scores of -10.6 and - 9.5 kcal/mol, respectively, with reference raltitrexed (-9.4 kcal/mol). Additionally, the assessment of physicochemical, biochemical, structural, and toxicological characteristics were also in the acceptable range for these compounds. Based on the anticancer activity of compounds, SAR was also performed for lead optimization.
