In this paper, we presented the fabrication and properties of new ammonia (NH) sensors with sensitive layer of nickel nanoparticles decorated on three-dimensional nitrogen-doped graphene-based frameworks/polyaniline (NiNPs@3D-(N)GFs/PANI) hybrid. The hybrid are synthesized through in-situ oxidative polymerization on flexible thin substrate. Synergetic behavior between both components manifested outstanding sensitivity (750.2 at 1000 ppm NH) and quick response (95 s) and recovery (25 s) times and a lower limit of detection (~ 45 ppb) at room temperature. The sensitivity of NiNPs@3D-(N)GFs/PANI hybrid sensor was shown to be about 14 times more than its of pure PANI sensor at 1000 ppm of NH. The excellent sensitivity of the as-prepared hybrid is mainly originated from the substantial rise of hole-like carriers by NiNPs@3D-(N)GFs as well as improved inter-molecule interactions via π- π electron networks. The obtained results revealed significant advantages for the synthesized hybrid sensor, making it a suitable choice for real-world applications of NH detection.

Introduction: Effective postoperative pain management remains a significant challenge due to the severe side effects of opioids and the limitations of existing analgesic delivery systems. Inflammation plays a critical role in pain exacerbation, highlighting the need for therapies that combine analgesic effects with intrinsic anti-inflammatory properties.
Methods: Herein, we develop an intrinsic anti-inflammatory nanomedicine designed to enhance pain management by integrating controlled anesthetic release with inherent anti-inflammatory activity.

Tannic acid (TA) has attracted the attention of researchers as a promising organic ligand capable of forming metal-organic coordination networks with various metal ions at interfaces to impact surface properties. In this study, we innovatively reported a self-assembly method for surface decoration by depositing TA/Fe coatings on the surface of desalted duck egg white nanoparticles (DEWN), further studying the oil/water interfacial properties of the modified particles. The results showed that the ratio and concentration of TA to Fe could modulate interfacial properties.

Harsh acid oxidation of activated charcoal transforms an insoluble carbon-rich source into water-soluble, disc structures of graphene decorated with multiple oxygen-containing functionalities. We term these pleiotropic nano-enzymes as "pleozymes". A broad redox potential spans many crucial redox reactions including the oxidation of hydrogen sulfide (HS) to polysulfides and thiosulfate, dismutation of the superoxide radical (O*), and oxidation of NADH to NAD.
