The photocatalytic degradation of p-chlorophenoxyacetic acid has been investigated in oxygenated aqueous suspensions of lanthanide oxide-doped TiO2 photocatalysts. Complete mineralization was achieved. The enhanced degradation is attributed to the formation of Lewis acid-base complex between the lanthanide ion and the substrate.

This study presents the synthesis and characterization of lanthanum oxide (La₂O₃)-doped carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) nanocomposites via a solution casting method, designed to offer an eco-friendly, multifunctional material with significant potential in biomedical applications. Structural analysis using FTIR, XRD, and EDX confirmed successful La₂O₃ integration, with FTIR spectra indicating a distinctive LaO stretching peak at 628.2 cm, XRD patterns revealing enhanced crystallinity with notable peaks at 16.

A label-free nanoimmunosensor is reported based on p53/CeO/PEDOT nanobiocomposite-decorated screen-printed gold electrodes (SPAuE) for the electrochemical detection of anti-p53 autoantibodies. CeO nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized and stabilized with cyanopropyltriethoxysilane by a soft chemistry method. The nanoimmunosensing architecture was prepared by in situ electropolymerization of 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) on SPAuE in the presence of CeO NPs.

Due to its high wear resistance and good biocompatibility, zirconia toughened alumina (ZTA) is an ideal material used as load-bearing implant. However, ZTA needs to be modified to overcome its bio-inert and thus improve osseointegration. Cerium oxide, which has been proved to be a bone-friendly ceramic, might be a desired material to enhance the bioactivity of ZTA.

Theranostic platforms that combine therapeutic and imaging modalities have received increasing interest. The development of theranostic nanovectors that can release therapeutic agents at pathological tissues in an on-demand manner and provide instantaneous feedback through non-invasive imaging techniques is of urgent need. Herein, a new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent, gadolinium oxide (GdO), and an anticancer drug, doxorubicin (DOX), were co-loaded into mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) with the formation of hybrid GdO@MSN-DOX nanoparticles.
