Organic Moiety-Regulated Photocatalytic Performance of Phosphomolybdate Hybrids for Hexavalent Chromium Reduction

Visible-light-driven photocatalytic Cr(VI) reduction is a promising pathway to moderate environmental pollution, in which the development of photocatalysts is pivotal. Herein, three hourglass-type phosphomolybdate-based hybrids with the formula of: (H₂bpe)₃[Zn(H₂PO₄)][Zn(bpe)(H₂O)₂]H{Zn[P₄Mo₆O₃₁H₆]₂} ⋅ 6H₂O ( 1 ) Na₆[H₂bz]₂[ZnNa₄(H₂O)₅]{Zn [P₄Mo₆O₃₁H₃]₂} ⋅ 2H₂O ( 2 ) and (H₂mbpy) {[Zn(mbpy)(H₂O)]₂[Zn(H₂O)]₂}{Zn[P₄Mo₆O₃₁H₆]₂} ⋅ 10H₂O ( 3 ) (bpe=trans-1,2-bi(4-pyridyl)-ethylene; bz=4,4′-diaminobiphenyl; mbpy=4,4’-dimethyl-2,2’bipyridine) were synthesized under the guidance of the functional organic moiety modification strategy. Structural analysis showed that hybrids 1 – 3 have similar 2D layer-like spatial arrangements constructed by {Zn[P₄Mo₆]₂} clusters and organic components with different conjugated degree. With excellent redox properties and wide visible-light absorption capacities, hybrids 1 – 3 display favourable photocatalytic activity for Cr(VI) reduction with 79%, 70% and 64% reduction rates, which are superior to that of only inorganic {Zn[P₄Mo₆]₂} itself (21%). The investigation of organic components on photocatalytic performance of hybrids 1 – 3 suggested that the organic counter cations (bpe, bz and mbpy) can effectively affect the visible-light absorption, as well as the recombination of photogenerated carriers stemmed from {Zn[P₄Mo₆]₂} clusters, further promoting their photocatalytic performances towards Cr(VI) reduction. This work provides an experimental basis for the design of functionalized photocatalysts via the modification of organic species.

Enhanced Adsorption of Hexavalent Chromium onto Magnetic Calcium Ferrite Nanoparticles: Kinetic,Isotherm, and Neural Network Modeling

Calcium ferrite nanoparticles with super-paramagnetic behavior were synthesized via simple chemical precipitation method for effective removal of hexavalent chromium from aqueous media. The properties of synthesized nanoparticles were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) measurements. The ferrite nanoparticles have shown polycrystalline nature and high BET specific surface area (229.83 m²/g) with active functional groups on the surface. The adsorption process follows second-order kinetics with the involvement of intra-particle diffusion and adsorption capacity as much as 124.11 mg/g was determined from the Langmuir isotherm. The thermodynamic analysis revealed that the adsorption process was feasible, spontaneous, and exothermic in nature. A three-layer feed-forward back-propagation artificial neural network (ANN) model was employed to predict the removal (%) of Cr(VI) ions as output. Optimal ANN network (4:8:1) shows the minimum mean squared error (MSE) of 0.00161 and maximum coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.984. The adsorption process is mostly influenced by solution pH and followed by adsorbent dosage, initial Cr(VI) concentration, and contact time as illustrated by sensitivity analysis. With small size and high surface area, biocompatibility, ecofriendly nature, easy magnetic separation, and enhanced adsorption capacity towards Cr(VI), calcium ferrite nanoparticles will find its potential application in wastewater remediation.

Adsorption of Hexavalent Chromium Using Activated Carbon Produced from Sargassum ssp.: Comparison between Lab Experiments and Molecular Dynamics Simulations

Adsorption is one of the most successful physicochemical approaches for removing heavy metal contaminants from polluted water. The use of residual biomass for the production of adsorbents has attracted a lot of attention due to its cheap price and environmentally friendly approach. The transformation of Sargassum—an invasive brown macroalga—into activated carbon (AC) via phosphoric acid thermochemical activation was explored in an effort to increase the value of Sargassum seaweed biomass. Several techniques (nitrogen adsorption, pH_PZC, Boehm titration, FTIR and XPS) were used to characterize the physicochemical properties of the activated carbons. The SAC600 3/1 was predominantly microporous and mesoporous (39.6% and 60.4%, respectively) and revealed a high specific surface area (1695 m²·g⁻¹). To serve as a comparison element, a commercial reference activated carbon with a large specific surface area (1900 m²·g⁻¹) was also investigated. The influence of several parameters on the adsorption capacity of AC was studied: solution pH, solution temperature, contact time and Cr(VI) concentration. The best adsorption capacities were found at very acid (pH 2) solution pH and at lower temperatures. The adsorption kinetics of SAC600 3/1 fitted well a pseudo-second-order type 1 model and the adsorption isotherm was better described by a Jovanovic-Freundlich isotherm model. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations confirmed the experimental results and determined that hydroxyl and carboxylate groups are the most influential functional groups in the adsorption process of chromium anions. MD simulations also showed that the addition of MgCl₂ to the activated carbon surface before adsorption experiments, slightly increases the adsorption of HCrO₄⁻ and CrO₄²⁻ anions. Finally, this theoretical study was experimentally validated obtaining an increase of 5.6% in chromium uptake.

Surface Functionalization of Magnetite Nanoparticles with Multipotent Antioxidant as Potential Magnetic Nanoantioxidants and Antimicrobial Agents

Functionalized magnetite nanoparticles (Fe₃O₄) were prepared using the coprecipitation method followed by functionalization with a multipotent antioxidant (MPAO). The MPAO was synthesized and analyzed using FTIR and NMR techniques. In this study, the functionalized nanoparticles (IONP@AO) were produced and evaluated using the FTIR, XRD, Raman, HRTEM, FESEM, VSM, and EDX techniques. The average determined particle size of IONP@AO was 10 nanometers. In addition, it demonstrated superparamagnetic properties. The magnitude of saturation magnetization value attained was 45 emu g⁻¹. Virtual screenings of the MPAO’s potential bioactivities and safety profile were performed using PASS analysis and ADMET studies before the synthesis step. For the DPPH test, IONP@AO was found to have a four-fold greater ability to scavenge free radicals than unfunctional IONP. The antimicrobial properties of IONP@AO were also demonstrated against a variety of bacteria and fungi. The interaction of developed nanoantioxiants with biomolecules makes it a broad-spectrum candidate in biomedicine and nanomedicine.     

Preparation and Application of Calix[4]arene Derivatives Bearing Pyridinium Units-Grafted Magnetite Nanoparticles for Removal of Dichromate and Arsenate Anions

Diamide derivatives of p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene (3a and 3b) have been immobilized onto [3-(2,3-epoxypropoxy)-propyl]-trimethoxysilane-modified Fe₃O₄ magnetite nanoparticles to obtain D-Calix-GEPPTMS-MNs (4a and 4b) and investigate their sorption capability toward arsenate and dichromate anions at different pH.

The morphology of the magnetic nanoparticles was examined by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and Thermogravimetric Analyses (TGA). In addition, a simple and versatile method has been used for the determination of arsenate in aqueous solution. In this method, the absorption of the excess dye gradually decreases because of its conversion to colorless carbinol species by combining with methyl violet cation (MV⁺) and forming stable blue micro particles of (MV⁺)-molybdoarsenate.

Monodisperse Magnetite Nanoparticles Coupled with Nuclear Localization Signal Peptide for Cell‐Nucleus Targeting

Functionalization of monodisperse superparamagnetic magnetite (Fe₃O₄) nanoparticles for cell specific targeting is crucial for cancer diagnostics and therapeutics. Targeted magnetic nanoparticles can be used to enhance the tissue contrast in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), to improve the efficiency in anticancer drug delivery, and to eliminate tumor cells by magnetic fluid hyperthermia. Herein we report the nucleus‐targeting Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles functionalized with protein and nuclear localization signal (NLS) peptide. These NLS‐coated nanoparticles were introduced into the HeLa cell cytoplasm and nucleus, where the particles were monodispersed and non‐aggregated. The success of labeling was examined and identified by fluorescence microscopy and MRI. The work demonstrates that monodisperse magnetic nanoparticles can be readily functionalized and stabilized for potential diagnostic and therapeutic applications.     

Eugenol-Functionalized Magnetite Nanoparticles Modulate Virulence and Persistence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Clinical Strains

Efficient antibiotics to cure Pseudomonas aeruginosa persistent infections are currently insufficient and alternative options are needed. A promising lead is to design therapeutics able to modulate key phenotypes in microbial virulence and thus control the progression of the infectious process without selecting resistant mutants. In this study, we developed a nanostructured system based on Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles (NPs) and eugenol, a natural plant-compound which has been previously shown to interfere with microbial virulence when utilized in subinhibitory concentrations. The obtained functional NPs are crystalline, with a spherical shape and 10–15 nm in size. The subinhibitory concentrations (MIC 1/2) of the eugenol embedded magnetite NPs (Fe₃O₄@EUG) modulate key virulence phenotypes, such as attachment, biofilm formation, persister selection by ciprofloxacin, and the production of soluble enzymes. To our knowledge, this is the first report on the ability of functional magnetite NPs to modulate P. aeruginosa virulence and phenotypic resistance; our data highlights the potential of these bioactive nanostructures to be used as anti-pathogenic agents.
