This work investigates the effect of reducing agents and stabilizing agent on the preparation of platinum nanoparticles. We used H2PtCl6 as a precursor and hydrogen and sodium borohydride as reducing agents to prepare colloidal platinum nanoparticles. Polyvinylpyrrolidones (PVPs) is used as a stabilizing agent. Hydrogen and sodium borohydride are used as reducing agents. The prepared platinum nanoparticles are characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffractometer (XRD). The concentrations of the precursor and the stabilizing agent influence the size of platinum nanoparticles, while the reducing agents influence the morphologies and structures of platinum nanoparticles. Supported platinum catalysts (CPt-NaBH4, CPt-H2) are prepared from colloidal platinum nanoparticles and γ-Al2O3. For comparison, another supported platinum catalyst (IPt) is prepared by the conventional impregnation method with an aqueous H2PtCL6 solution and γ-AL2O3. The catalytic activities of CPts are superior to that of IPt on the basis of benzene conversion.

With enrichment of tetracycline (TC) in ecosystems, its accurate detection has become a major concern. Noble-metal nano-particles have attracted great interest as potential materials for sensing applications because of their remarkable electrical properties and adaptability. Herein, a novel electro-chemical detection technique based on carbon nano-tubes (CNTs) as the support material is developed to detect TC with high precision.

Adenosine plays a crucial role in the cardiovascular and nervous systems of living organisms. Excessive adenosine can lead to arrhythmias or heart failure, making the accurate detection of adenosine highly valuable. Given the widespread use of sensors for detecting small molecules, we propose a sensitive electrochemical aptasensor for adenosine detection in this study.

Noble metal nanoparticles have attracted tremendous attention as the promising signal reporters for catalytic-colorimetric lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA). However, it remains great challenges for improving their stability and catalytic activity. Herein, first, a kind of porphyrinic based metal-organic framework (MOF) was used as a carrier for loading platinum (Pt) nanoparticles to avoid its aggregation.

Focused ultrasound has advantages as an external stimulus for drug delivery as it is non-invasive, has high precision and can penetrate deep into tissues. Here, we report a gold-plated alginate (ALG) hydrogel system that retains highly water-soluble small-molecule fluorescein for sharp off/on release after ultrasound exposure. The ALG is crosslinked into beads with calcium chloride and layered with a polycation to adjust the surface charge for the adsorption of catalytic platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs).
