Aim: The preparation of magnetic multi-walled carbon nanotube poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) for propranolol magnetic solid-phase extraction is described.
Materials & Methods: A study comparing propranolol adsorption and desorption was performed with only magnetic multi-walled carbon nanotubes, and different poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) with and without magnetic multi-walled carbon nanotubes. Enantiomeric separation of propranolol took place by cyclodextrin-modified capillary electrophoresis and the method was validated in spiked human urine samples.
Results: Recovery values raised when styrene/divinylbenzene millimoles ratio was 19.57:15.80. Enrichment factors increased up to approximately 100, detection limits were 13.8 and 10.5 ng ml for R- and S-propranolol respectively, quantitation limits were 46.0 and 34.8 ng ml for R- and S-propranolol respectively, recoveries from spiked samples ranged from 90.9 to 109.0%, and relative standard deviations were <6.3%.
Conclusion: This methodology was proven to be more effective than classical solid-phase extraction strategies and may be applied to other kind of biological samples.

This article investigates the convective thermal and solutal exchange from the active walls of a trapezium chamber which is filled with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT)-silicon dioxide (SiO)-ethylene glycol-water hybrid nano-coolant. The hybrid nano-coolant exhibits non-Newtonian shear-thinning rheology and is modeled by the power-law viscosity as per an exploratory report. The convection is generated by both the thermal and solutal buoyancy forces in the presence of a magnetic field.

Article Synopsis
- - Researchers combined magnetic nickel oxide multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT-NiO) with xylanase from Thermomyces lanuginosus by modifying the nanotubes and using glutaraldehyde for covalent attachment, achieving effective enzyme immobilization.
- - Free xylanase showed optimal activity at pH 7.5, while the immobilized enzyme worked best at pH 7.0 and 60°C, with thermal stability significantly improving post-immobilization (7-12 fold increase).
- - The immobilized xylanase produced xylooligosaccharides including xylobiose, xylotriose, and xylotetraose, and maintained over 80%

Article Synopsis
- Bisphenol analogues (BPs) are environmental endocrine disruptors that may negatively impact human health, prompting research into their detection in bottled water.
- This study developed a fast and efficient method using a combination of hydrophilic deep eutectic solvent and magnetic multi-walled carbon nanotubes for extracting and analyzing nine BPs through ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.
- The method showed excellent sensitivity with detection limits as low as 0.0003-0.003 μg/L and good reliability, making it effective for measuring BPs in large water samples.
Crafting "brick-mud" segregated nanocomposites: a novel approach to superior electromagnetic interference shielding, electrical insulation, and thermal conductivity in biopolymers.

As electronic devices continue to be integrated, miniaturized, and operated at higher frequencies, the demand for green, advanced polymer nanocomposites with superior electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, thermal conduction, and electrical insulation properties significantly increases. However, achieving such multifunctional nanocomposites is challenging due to the inherent contradiction between electrical and magnetic properties. Biopolymer nanocomposites of polycaprolactone (PCL)/boron nitride (BN)@polylactic acid (PLA)/multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) ((PCL/BN)@(PLA/CNTs)) exhibit a unique "brick-mud" segregated double-network structure.
