This study explores an eco-friendly method for synthesizing Cobalt oxide nanoparticles (CoONPs) using extracted carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) as a reducing and stabilizing agent. The CoONPs, characterized via various analyses, demonstrated a crystalline structure with sizes ranging from 10.9 to 28.2 nm. Microscopic imaging confirmed a uniform spherical morphology with an average diameter of 27.2 nm. The biological activities of CoONPs were investigated extensively, highlighting their superior antibacterial efficacy compared to amoxicillin-clavulanic acid. These nanoparticles exhibited potent antioxidant properties and demonstrated safety for potential applications based on erythrocyte viability results. Additionally, CoONPs displayed significant potency against Michigan Cancer Foundation-7 (MCF-7) breast cancer cells and showed promising α-amylase enzyme inhibitory activity, highlighting their multifunctional therapeutic potential as antioxidant, antibacterial, anticancer, and alpha-amylase inhibition assay.

In catalysis research, the amount of microscopy data acquired when imaging dynamic processes is often too much for nonautomated quantitative analysis. Developing machine learned segmentation models is challenged by the requirement of high-quality annotated training data. We thus substitute expert-annotated data with a physics-based sequential synthetic data model.

Article Synopsis
  • Cobalt oxide (CoO) is an attractive electrode material for supercapacitors due to its affordability, natural abundance, non-toxicity, and high capacitance.
  • Researchers developed a binder-less molybdenum doped CoO (Mo@CoO) integrated electrode using a simple electric discharge corrosion (EDC) method, which allows for direct synthesis without templates or additives.
  • The study found that the Mo@CoO based supercapacitor with a specific discharge pulse width achieved a significantly higher capacitance and quick charge/discharge capabilities, showcasing the EDC method's potential for fabricating efficient electrodes for energy storage and sensing applications.
