The world is moving towards a healthier lifestyle where people are changing their eating habits, which influenced edible rose flowers to emerge as a pioneer in the field of nutraceutical and food industries. Roses are a good source of dietary phytochemicals viz., flavonoids (anthocyanins, flavonols, and flavonols), carotenoids, and phenolic acids.

April 2021

Physical and Materials Chemistry Division, National Chemical Laboratory Pashan Road Pune 411008 India

It is high time to placate the peak demand for an efficient, economic and green fuel in the form of H through photocatalytic water splitting. Several low dimensional materials have been explored for their photocatalytic properties on account of their surface to volume ratio. The present study illustrates the excellent photocatalytic potential of a two-dimensional material, a chemically tempered blue-phosphorene sheet, with single atom thickness and high carrier mobility.

Herein we report a novel electrochemical sensing chip and a point-of-care device (PoC) for enzyme-free electrochemical detection of urea in human blood. The electrochemical sensing chip was developed by 3-D printing of conductive Ag ink and subsequent electrodeposition of AuNP-rGO nanocomposite. Material characterization of the sensing chip was conducted to find a plausible mechanism for the electrochemical reaction with urea.

G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) have evolved as highly specialized cellular machinery that can dictate biological outcomes in response to diverse stimuli. Specifically, they induce multiple pathway responses upon structural perturbations induced at local protein sites. GPCRs utilize a concurrent strategy involving a central transmembrane topology and biochemical modifications for precise functional implementation.

Article Synopsis
  • Luminescent phosphorene quantum dots (PQDs) are promising nanomaterials with applications in fields like optoelectronics and sensing due to their unique properties.
  • The study demonstrates that applying an electric field to black phosphorus (BP) creates blue luminescent PQDs, which show consistent photoluminescence with a high quantum efficiency of 84%.
  • Structural changes during the conversion of BP to PQDs were confirmed using advanced techniques, and computational analysis indicated that maintaining an optimal level of oxygen is crucial for the stability and integrity of the PQDs.
