Published: January 2005

We descried a method to synthesize single crystalline Fe3O4 nanotubes by wet-etching the MgO inner cores of MgO/Fe3O4 core-shell nanowires. Homogeneous Fe3O4 nanotubes with controllable length, diameter, and wall thickness have been obtained. Resistivity of the Fe3O4 nanotubes was estimated to be approximately 4 x 10-2 Omega cm at room temperature. Magnetoresistance of approximately 1% was observed at T = 77 K when a magnetic field of B = 0.7 T was applied. The synthetic strategy presented here may be extended to a variety of materials such as YBCO, PZT, and LCMO which should provide ideal candidates for fundamental studies of superconductivity, piezoelectricity, and ferromagnetism in nanoscale structures.

Herein, a novel Janus-structured multifunctional membrane with integrated electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and personalized thermal management is fabricated using shear-induced in situ fibrillation and vacuum-assisted filtration. Interestingly, within the polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)-carbon nanotube (CNT)-FeO layer (FCFe), CNT nanofibers interweave with PTFE fibers to form a stable "silk-like" structure that effectively captures FeO particles. By incorporating a highly conductive MXene layer, the FCFe/MXene (FCFe/M) membrane exhibits excellent electrical/thermal conductivity, mechanical properties, and flame retardancy.

Bladder cancer diagnosis typically involves approaches such as cystoscopy, biopsy, urine cytology, and medical imaging. However, these invasive procedures carry a risk of complications, and direct in vitro detection on clinical samples often results in low sensitivity. Therefore, this study proposed urease-driven magnetic nanomotors for the simultaneous detection of bladder cancer biomarkers miRNA-21 and miRNA-182 in urine samples, aiming for noninvasive diagnosis.

A efficient sensor is presented for detecting free chlorine in water by decorating glassy carbon electrodes (GCE) via multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and FeO-Cu-BTC composite. After the characterization of prepared materials by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) techniques, and N adsorption-desorption isotherm, the electrochemical properties of FeO-Cu-BTC/MWCNTs/GC-modified electrode were assessed with cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). CV and chronoamperometry measurement in phosphate buffer solution with pH 7.

The increasing reliance on electronic devices has created a pressing demand for high-performance and sustainable electromagnetic interference shielding materials. While conventional materials, such as metals and carbon-based composites, offer excellent shielding capabilities, they are hindered by high costs, environmental concerns, and limitations in scalability. Polysaccharide-based materials, including cellulose, chitosan, and alginate, represent a promising alternative due to their biodegradability, renewability, and versatility.

Nanocomposites based on FeO and carbonaceous nanoparticles (CNPs), including carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene derivatives (graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (RGO)), such as FeO@GO, FeO@RGO, and FeO@CNT, have demonstrated considerable potential in a number of health applications, including tissue regeneration and innovative cancer treatments such as hyperthermia (HT). This is due to their ability to transport drugs and generate localized heat under the influence of an alternating magnetic field on FeO. Despite the promising potential of CNTs and graphene derivatives as drug delivery systems, their use in biological applications is hindered by challenges related to dispersion in physiological media and particle agglomeration.
