In this paper, the chain-like core-shell structure Fe3O4@SiO2@Chitosan composite nanoparticles were synthesized by a two-step coating and following crosslinking glutaraldehyde on chitosan shell. The composite particles showed nearly monodisperse 105 sized particles with a core diameter of 80 nm and chitosan shell thickness of 12 nm. The synthesis conditions of the product were studied, and the morphology and properties of the composite nanoparticles were characterized by IR, XRD, TEM, SEM, EDS and VSM. The adsorption properties of Hg2+, Pb2+ or Cu2+ ions on Fe3O4, Fe3O4@SiO2 and the composite particles were in detail studied using the colorimetric method based on forming colored mercuric dithizone, rhodamine-Pb2+ complex and DDTC-Cu(2+) complex. The results showed, adsorption isotherm, kinetics and separation coefficient of heavy metal ions on these three magnetic nanoparticles were concerned with pH, metal ions' electronic configuration, silica coating and chitosan shell respectively. In addition, the recycle efficiency was also studied. The findings demonstrated that Fe3O4@SiO2@Chitosan composite nanoparticles have great application value in the adsorption and separation of heavy metal ions.

Herein, electrochemical sensing of paracetamol in polluted water was achieved using facile-synthesized tungsten oxide nanoparticles. Ion exchange resin has been used as a sustainable preparation route, while the prepared nanoparticles have been characterized by XRD and SEM analyses. Orthorhombic WO·HO nano-plates have been synthesized a facile preparation method, where the crystal size has been calculated as 25-33 nm, and these results were used to create a 3D model of the prepared WO·HO nano-plates.

This study presents an investigation of the chemical composition of Aloe vera leaf tissue with a focus on the spatial distribution of compounds. The composition was studied using two mass spectrometry imaging techniques: silver-109 nanoparticles assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (AgNPs-LDI-MSI) and laser ablation-remote atmospheric pressure photoionization/chemical ionization mass spectrometry imaging (LARAPPI/CI-MSI) and the identification was aided by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography and ultra-high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-UHRMS) analysis. The results showed an abundance of phenolic compounds with antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties, making it a beneficial food additive and food packaging material.

Asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation (AF4) with multi-detection has continued to gain wider acceptance for characterizing complex drug products. An important quality attribute for these products is the measurement of the particle size distribution (PSD). Current limitations of established procedures (e.

Despite the potential to significantly enhance the economic viability of biomass-based platforms through the selective conversion of glycerol to 1,3-dihydroxyacetone (DHA), a formidable challenge persists in simultaneously achieving high catalytic activity and stability along this reaction pathway. Herein, we have devised a strategic approach to manipulate the interfacial integration within composite catalysts to address the performance trade-off. Through the modulation of the composite process involving a bio-templated porous ZSM-5 zeolite platform (bZ) and an Au/CuZnO catalyst, three distinct interfacial bonding modes were achieved: physical milling, encapsulation by zeolite, and growth on zeolite.

Fungal lipases are the leading industrial biocatalyst due to their broad applications, but high cost limits their commercial usage. The low-cost agri-residues substrates can reduce the cost of lipase production. However, the compatibility of agri-residue with fungal species, recovery process of lipase and stability of the enzyme are crucial steps.
