Voltammetric immunosensor based on oxidized carbon nanotubes/MnFeO hybrid nanoplatform for amplified detection of celery (Apium graveolens).

Celery is a food allergen that must be included in the ingredient list of commercial food products in the European Union. This is a challenge for the food industry because of potential cross-contamination and undeclared ingredients because of their low concentrations. So, the food industry requires expedited high-performance analytical methods.

Fabrication of CNT-N@Manganese Oxide Hybrid Nanomaterials through a Versatile One-Pot Eco-Friendly Route toward Engineered Textile Supercapacitors.

The expansion of the Internet of Things market and the proliferation of wearable technologies have generated a significant demand for textile-based energy storage systems. This work reports the engineered design of hybrid electrode nanomaterials of N-doped carbon nanotubes (CNT-N) functionalized with two types of manganese oxides (MOs)-birnessite (MnO) and hausmannite (MnO)-and their application in solid-state textile-based hybrid supercapacitors (SCs). A versatile citric acid-mediated eco-friendly one-pot aqueous precipitation process is proposed for the fabrication of the hybrids.

Flexible Magnetocaloric Fiber Mats for Room-Temperature Energy Applications.

Currently, magnetocaloric refrigeration technologies are emerging as ecofriendly and more energy-efficient alternatives to conventional expansion-compression systems. However, major challenges remain. A particular concern is the mechanical properties of magnetocaloric materials, namely, their fatigue under cycling and difficulty in processing and shaping.

FeO@Au Core-Shell Magnetic Nanoparticles for the Rapid Analysis of O157:H7 in an Electrochemical Immunoassay.

() O157:H7 is a pathogenic bacterium that causes serious toxic effects in the human gastrointestinal tract. In this paper, a method for its effective analytical control in a milk sample was developed. To perform rapid (1 h) and accurate analysis, monodisperse FeO@Au magnetic nanoparticles were synthesized and used in an electrochemical sandwich-type magnetic immunoassay.
