In the present study, efficient adsorptive removal of fluoride and Direct Blue 53 (DB-53) dye solution on perovskite lanthanum aluminate (PLA) has been investigated. To characterize the prepared PLA with analytical techniques like FTIR, SEM, EDS, PXRD, PHZPC and BET. The influence of adsorbent dose (0.05-0.6) gL, p (2-12), contact time (0-60 min) and initial adsorbate concentration (0-50 mg L) were studied on adsorption process. Mathematical modeling of kinetics and isotherms were computed using equations. The pseudo-second-order kinetic and Halsey isotherm equilibrium model are best fitted with experimentally computed data with R > 0.96. The value of free mean energy E per adsorbate molecule was 1.77 kJmol (fluoride) and 1.86 kJmol (DB-53) with an adsorption capacity 25.103 and 38.03 respectively, hence nature of adsorption suggested as physisorption process. The maximum Langmuir adsorption capacity of PLA was investigated to be 40.8 mgg (fluoride) and 71.4 mgg (DB-53). Present study PLA deficits efficient adsorbent for fluoride and DB-53 dye for ground and industrial wastewater. Further, the effect of in-vitro antimicrobial studies was carried out against six test microorganisms. PLA showed, a maximum antibacterial effect at MIC 63 μg mL for Gram-negative bacteria: Pseudomonas aeruginosa (NCIM 5029) due to the interaction between the positively charged nanoparticle and negatively charged cell wall.

Lanthanum strontium ferrite (LaSrAgFeO = 0; LSFO) and its silver-doped derivative (LaSrAgFeO = 0.05; LASFO) are synthesized using mild conditions by a sol-gel method. Both oxides present a perovskite-like structure with orthorhombic symmetry due to octahedral tilting; thus, the incorporation of silver in the A-site does not significantly modify the perovskite structure.

Inorganic fillers play an important role in improving the ionic conductivity of solid composite electrolytes (SCEs) for Li-ion batteries. Among inorganic fillers, perovskite-type lithium lanthanum titanate (LLTO) stands out for its high bulk Li conductivity on the order of 10 S cm at room temperature. According to a literature survey, the optimal LLTO filler should possess the following characteristics: i) a single-crystal structure to minimize grain boundaries; ii) a small particle size to increase the filler/polymer interface area; iii) a 1D morphology for efficient interface channels; and iv) cubic symmetry to facilitate rapid bulk Li diffusion within the filler.

Article Synopsis
- * New methods were employed to assess the hazards and benefits of these perovskites, revealing that their composition affects stability under lung conditions, leading to oxidative damage and the release of metals.
- * The study identified a version of perovskite with lower nickel and added palladium as the most balanced option for safe and sustainable design, though it did not enhance traditional catalytic performance, suggesting potential need for redesign in the industry.

LaNiO perovskite nanoparticles, especially nanospheres (LNNS), show great promise in biomedical assays due to their peroxidase-like catalytic properties. However, LNNS-based diagnostic reagents have not been tested in nanozyme enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (NLISA) or other enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, and there is limited data on their synthesis. To fill this gap, it is necessary to develop a method for creating LNNS conjugates with monoclonal antibodies and to investigate the reproducibility, scalability, and applicability of these diagnostic reagents in NLISA.

The properties of an oxygen carrier, such as crystalline structure, textural properties, and surface chemical species, significantly influence the redox performance in thermochemical redox applications. This study presents the synthesis of various lanthanum orthoferrite (LaFeO) perovskites by adjusting Pechini synthesis parameters, including chelating agent ratio, calcination temperature, and solution pH. A larger surface area emerged as a dominant factor contributing to improved redox performance.
