Solution combustion synthesis of ZnO doped CuO nanocomposite for photocatalytic and sensor applications.

ZnO-doped CuO nanocomposites (CuO-ZnO NPs) of 1, 3, and 5 mol% were prepared by the solution combustion method using ODH as a fuel (Oxlyl-hydrazide) at 500 °C and calcining at 1000 °C for two hours and the Structural, photocatalytic, and electrochemical properties were investigated by experimental and theoretical methods. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns revealed a crystallite size (D) range of 25 to 31 nm for pure CuO and 1, 3, and 5 mol% CuO-ZnO NPs. According to calculations, the optical energy band gap (Eg) of the NPs is between 2.

Antibody-modified 2D MXene nanosheet probes for selective, picolevel detection of cancer biomarkers.

Cancer biomarkers are crucial indicators found in clinical samples, playing a key role in early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer. Detecting these biomarkers with high sensitivity is essential for early diagnosis, especially in aggressive cancers like lung cancer, which is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a critical biomarker for lung cancer, and its detection aids in identifying the disease at an early stage.

Vibrational spectroscopic interpretation, solvent effect and molecular docking studies of TAAR1 partial agonist RO5263397.

Cobalt-Doped ZnO Nanocomposits for Efficient Dye Degradation: Charge Transfer.

Doping enhances the optical properties of high-band gap zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs), essential for their photocatalytic activity. We used the combustion approach to synthesize cobalt-doped ZnO heterostructure (CDZO). By creating a mid-edge level, it was possible to tune the indirect band gap of the ZnO NPs from 3.
