Development of nanozyme based sensors as diagnostic tools in clinic applications: a review.

Since 1970, many artificial enzymes that imitate the activity and structure of natural enzymes have been discovered. Nanozymes are a group of nanomaterials with enzyme-mimetic properties capable of catalyzing natural enzyme processes. Nanozymes have attracted great interest in biomedicine due to their excellent stability, rapid reactivity, and affordable cost.

Exploring multifunctional behaviour of g-CN decorated BiVO/AgCO hierarchical nanocomposite for simultaneous electrochemical detection of two nitroaromatic compounds and water splitting applications.

Development of multifunctional ternary nanocomposite based electrocatalysts for detection of toxic elements and generation of renewable energy describes an environmentally sustainable technique to address the dual challenges of pollution and energy. Herein, we adopted microwave-assisted synthesis to design a multifunctional graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN) decorated BiVO/AgCO (BVG@C) hierarchical ternary nanocomposite for sensing and water splitting applications. The morphological, structural and elemental characterizations demonstrate the successful decoration of carbon nitride on the composite surface.

Nanoremediation technologies for sustainable remediation of contaminated environments: Recent advances and challenges.

A major and growing concern within society is the lack of innovative and effective solutions to mitigate the challenge of environmental pollution. Uncontrolled release of pollutants into the environment as a result of urbanisation and industrialisation is a staggering problem of global concern. Although, the eco-toxicity of nanotechnology is still an issue of debate, however, nanoremediation is a promising emerging technology to tackle environmental contamination, especially dealing with recalcitrant contaminants.
