Nanocellulose@chitosan (nc@ch) composite beads were prepared via coagulation technique for the elimination of malachite green dye from aqueous solution. As malachite green dye is highly used in textile industries for dyeing purpose which after usage shows fatal effects to the ecosystems and human beings also. In this study the formulated nanocellulose@chitosan composite beads were characterized by Particle size analysis (PSA), Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis were done to evaluate nanoparticles size distribution, morphological behaviour, functional group entities and degree of crystallinity of prepared beads. The nanocomposite beads adsorption performance was investigated for malachite green (MG) dye and BET analysis were also recorded to know about porous behaviour of the nanocomposite beads. Maximum removal of malachite green (MG) dye was found to be 72.0 mg/g for 100 ppm initial dye concentration. For accurate observations linear and non-linear modelling was done to know about the best-fitted adsorption model during the removal mechanism of dye molecules, on evaluating it has been observed that Langmuir isotherm and Freundlich isotherm show best-fitted observation in the case of linear and non-linear isotherm respectively (R = 0.96 & R = 0.957). In the case of kinetic linear models, the data was well fitted with pseudo-second-order showing chemosorption mechanism (R = 0.999), and in the case of non-linear kinetic model pseudo first order showed good fit showing physisorption mechanism during adsorption (R = 0.999). The thermodynamic study showed positive values for ΔH° and ΔS° throughout the adsorption process respectively, implying an endothermic behaviour. In view of cost effectiveness, desorption or regeneration study was done and it was showed that after the 5th cycle, the removal tendency had decreased from 48 to 38 % for 20-100 ppm dye solution accordingly. Thus, nanocomposite beads prepared by the coagulation method seem to be a suitable candidate for dye removal from synthetic wastewater and may have potential to be used in small scale textile industries for real wastewater treatment.

The primary goal of the current work was to construct pH-sensitive nano and microcomposite hydrogel beads based on alginate (AL), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), biochar (BC), and two Moroccan clays: Ghassoul (swelling SW) and red (not swelling NSW) nano and microhybrid. The adsorbents, SW + AL, SW + AL + BC, SW + AL + CMC, NSW + AL, NSW + AL + BC, NSW + AL + CMC, AL, and AL + CMC were prepared for the adsorption of the antibiotic sulfadiazine (SDZ). The test samples were characterized using a variety of techniques, including X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), IR spectroscopy (FT-IR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), with the molecular structures of the studied additives geometrically optimized using the DFT/B3LYP method and the function 6-311G(d).

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on using magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) combined with chitosan to improve targeted drug delivery for breast cancer treatment, aiming for better efficacy and fewer side effects.
- MNPs were created through a co-precipitation method, and then encapsulated with the anti-cancer drug 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in chitosan beads, followed by a variety of characterization techniques to confirm their properties.
- Results indicated a high entrapment efficiency of 85-90% and notable cytotoxic effects on breast cancer cells, with drug release varying under different pH levels, suggesting a promising strategy for targeted cancer therapy.

Hydrogels are adaptable substances with a 3D framework able to hold large quantities of water, which is why they are ideal for use in the field of biomedicine. This research project focused on creating a new hydrogel combining carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS), graphene quantum dots (GQDs), pectin (Pe), and MIL-88 for precise and controlled release of the cancer drug doxorubicin (DOX). The creation of CMCS/GQDs@Pe/MIL-88 hydrogel beads was achieved through an eco-friendly one-step synthesis method.

The development of a sustainable and eco-friendly silver-based hybrid nanocomposite for safe and efficient point-of-use (POU) water disinfection remains a challenge. Herein, a simple and facile approach was proposed for the in situ immobilization of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on chitosan-g-poly (sulfobetaine methacrylate) (CS-g-PSBMA) hydrogel beads, which have been achieved via graft copolymerization of sulfobetaine methacrylate along the chitosan chains followed by a drop method. The AgNPs-decorated CS-g-PSBMA hydrogel beads were characterized and their bactericidal efficacy towards Escherichia coli was evaluated concurrently with their anti-biofouling behaviors.

In this study, we have taken a novel approach to dye removal and real wastewater treatment by employing dual smart strategies: surface charge transfer engineering and developing an easily recoverable photocatalyst. The removal of acid blue 92 (AB92) dye by using a novel 3D polypyrrole-zinc oxide-sodium alginate (PPy-ZnO-SA) nanocomposite under UV-C, visible light, and natural sunlight was investigated. The nanocomposite hydrogel was characterized using various techniques, including XRD, Raman, FESEM, TEM, XPS, PL, DRS, and CV analyses, and the type of effective interactions in different stages of removal was investigated by FTIR analysis.
