A new approach based on far infrared-assisted in situ reduction was developed for the facile one-step preparation of graphene-nickel nanoparticle hybrid by refluxing a mixture solution containing graphene oxide, nickel(II) sulfate, and hydrazine over an far-infrared heater. The reduction time was as short as 20 min. The structure of the material was investigated by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive spectroscopy, vibrating sample magnetometery, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Magnetic investigations indicate that the grapheme-nickel nanoparticle hybrid exhibits ferromagnetic behavior at room temperature. Meanwhile, the hybrid was successfully employed in the enrichment and identification of proteins and peptides in combination with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry based on its excellent magnetic responsibility, high dispersibility, large surface area, and hydrophobicity, indicating great promise for a wide range of applications.

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.

mRNA-based vaccines against the COVID-19 pandemic have propelled the use of nucleic acids for drug delivery. Conventional lipid-based carriers, such as liposomes and nanolipogels, effectively encapsulate and deliver RNA but are hindered by issues such as premature burst release and immunogenicity. To address these challenges, cell membrane-coated nanoparticles offer a promising alternative.

Due to the price and demand of having increased dramatically, adulteration with other fungi is a common problem. Thus, a reliable method of authentic identification is essential. In the present work, a rapid DNA extraction and double-tailed recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) coupled with nucleic acid hybridization lateral flow strip (NAH-LFS) was developed to distinguish authentic ingredients from other fungi substitutes.
