Structural, optical and antibacterial properties of yttriumdoped ZnO nanoparticles
摘要: Yttrium-doped ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized by co-precipitation method to investigate structural, optical and antibacterial properties. X-ray diffraction analysis confirms hexagonal (wurtzite) structure with average crystallite size between 16 and 30 nm. Optical energy band gap decreases with increasing Y-doping concentration. ZnO nanoparticles were found to be highly effective against S. aureus and Y-doped ZnO nanoparticles against E. coli, B. subtilis and S. typhi. Undoped and Y-doped ZnO nanoparticles are good inorganic antimicrobial agents and can be synthesized by cost effective co-precipitation method.

Synthesis, characterization and comparative studies of dual doped ZnO nanoparticles for photocatalytic applications
摘要: Pure and dual doped ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized via the wet chemical method. The synthesized samples were characterized by XRD, HR-SEM/EDS, HR-TEM, UV–Vis, PL, FT-IR, and FT-Raman spectral measurements. The prepared ZnO nanoparticles exhibit a hexagonal wurtzite structure and [Ce–La, La–Gd, Gd–Ce] rare earth dual doped ZnO nanoparticles was confirmed from the shift in XRD peaks position, cell parameter and also changes in the peaks intensity. HR-SEM/EDS and HR-TEM show spherical in shape with less agglomeration on the surface of all samples and the images are clearly revealed that the particle size ~ 40 nm (PZ), 14 nm (ZCL3), 16 nm (ZLG3) and 28 nm (ZGC3). UV–Vis spectra show a strong Ultraviolet region absorbance for ZCL3 sample with the low Energy band gap value of 2.81 eV. The presences of the functional group and molecular vibrations are characterized by employing the FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra. From the PL spectra, it was found that the peak position of all samples produces a visible emission. The photocatalytic performance of the synthesized doped nanoparticles found to exhibit better degradation of MB dye under solar irradiation ZCL3 showed an increase in the photo catalytic decolorization efficiency. The bactericidal activity of dual doped ZnO nanoparticles was investigated against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and compare with standard ampicillin. We observe that ZCL3 sample have excellent antibacterial activity against Gram-negative bacteria (P. mirabilis) and the mean zone of inhibition ~ 20 mm.

Biological interactions of biocompatible and water-dispersed MoS2 nanosheets with bacteria and human cells
摘要: Two dimensional materials beyond graphene such as MoS2 and WS2 are novel and interesting class of materials whose unique physico-chemical properties can be exploited in applications ranging from leading edge nanoelectronics to the frontiers between biomedicine and biotechnology. To unravel the potential of TMD crystals in biomedicine, control over their production through green and scalable routes in biocompatible solvents is critically important. Furthermore, considering multiple applications of eco-friendly 2D dispersions and their potential impact onto live matter, their toxicity and antimicrobial activity still remain an open issue. Herein, we focus on the current demands of 2D TMDs and produce high-quality, few-layered and defect-free MoS2 nanosheets, exfoliated and dispersed in pure water, stabilized up to three weeks. Hence, we studied the impact of this material on human cells by investigating its interactions with three cell lines: two tumoral, MCF7 (breast cancer) and U937 (leukemia), and one normal, HaCaT (epithelium). We observed novel and intriguing results, exhibiting evident cytotoxic effect induced in the tumor cell lines, absent in the normal cells in the tested conditions. The antibacterial action of MoS2 nanosheets is then investigated against a very dangerous gram negative bacterium, such as two types of Salmonellas: ATCC 14028 and wild-type Salmonella typhimurium. Additionally, concentration and layer-dependent modulation of cytotoxic effect is found both on human cells and Salmonellas.

摘要: Undoped and Ni-S co-doped Mesoporous TiO2 nano materials were synthesized by using sol-gel method. The characteristic features of as prepared catalyst samples were investigated using various advanced spectroscopic and analytical techniques. The characterization results of the samples revelled that all the samples exhibited anatase phase (XRD), decreasing band gap (2.68 eV) (UV-Vis-DRS), small particle size (9.2 nm) (TEM), High surface area (142.156 m2/g) (BET), particles with spherical shape and smooth morphology (SEM), there is a frequency shift observed for co-doped sample (FT-IR) and the elemental composition electronic states and position of the doped elements (Ni and S) in the TiO2 lattice analyzed by XPS and EDX. These results supported the photocatalytic degradation of Bismarck Brown Red (BBR) achieved with in 110 min and also exhibited the antibacterial activity on Staphylococcus aureus (MTCC-3160), Pseudomonas fluorescence (MTCC-1688) under visible light irradiation.

Fabrication of Ag3VO4 decorated phosphorus and sulphur co-doped graphitic carbon nitride as a high-dispersed photocatalyst for phenol mineralization and E. Coli disinfection
摘要: In this work, we have successfully anchored Ag3VO4 (AV) onto P and S co-doped g-C3N4 (PSGCN) to prepare high-dispersible AV/PSGCN photocatalyst via a deposition-precipitation method. The P and S co-doped g-C3N4 was synthesized via thermal polycondensation using hexachlorotriphosphazene (HCCP) and thiourea as precursors. AV/PSGCN was characterized using various spectral techniques. The atomic force analysis indicated that the thickness of AV/PSGCN was less than 3.0 nm. The zeta potential and Tyndall effect experiments ascertained formation of the well-dispersed suspension of AV/PSGCN in water. The co-doping resulted in lowering optical band gap of g-C3N4. The photoluminescence and electrochemical impedance analysis indicated suppression in recombination of photogenerated electron and hole pairs in AV/PSGCN. The photodegradation of phenol followed pseudo-first order kinetics. Hydroxyl radicals and holes were the two main reactive species for photodegradation of phenol. The COD, HPLC and LC-MS analyses confirmed mineralization of phenol in 6 h. Unlike conventional slurry type photo-reactors, AV/PSGCN was not magnetically agitated during photocatalytic reactions. AV/PSGCN exhibited significant antibacterial activity for E.Coli disinfection. The photodegradation of phenol and bacterial disinfection occurred through hole and hydroxyl radical formation mechanism.

Rose Bengal Incorporated to α-Cyclodextrin Microparticles for Photodynamic Therapy against the cariogenic microorganism Streptococcus mutans
摘要: Rose Bengal@α-cyclodextrin (RB@α-CD) microparticles (μPs) were prepared and the RB inclusion in α-CD was experimentally demonstrated through infrared, UV-VIS absorption spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. The RB inclusion in α-CD was theoretically investigated using classical molecular mechanics calculations, the simulation results showing that RB can be included in both the narrow and wide apertures of the α-cyclodextrin ring with configurations exhibiting average binding energies of about 27 kcal.mol-1. The prepared RB@α-CD microparticles were characterized through Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and it was demonstrated that they are highly efficient in the photodynamic therapy against a Streptococcus mutans (the main bacteria of cariogenic dental plaque) suspension, as a concentration of RB@α-CD μPs 10 times smaller than the usual concentration of pure RB is still capable to produce significant antibacterial activity.

Microwave-assisted synthesis, photocatalysis and antibacterial activity of Ag nanoparticles supported on ZnO flowers
摘要: ZnO flowers with different Ag contents were successfully synthesized by a simple microwave method. Phase and morphologies of heterostructure Ag/ZnO composites were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The results showed that heterostructure Ag/ZnO composites were composed of face centered cubic Ag supported on hexagonal ZnO flowers of hexagonal prism nanorods with 100 nm wide and about 2–3 μm long, including the detection of Ag 3d5/2 and Ag 3d3/2 for metallic Ag of 10 wt% Ag/ZnO composites. The photocatalytic activity of heterostructure Ag/ZnO composites was evaluated through photodegradation of methylene blue under UV light. Escherichia coli DH5α (gram-negative bacteria) and Stapphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 (gram-positive bacteria) were used to test for antibacterial activity. The 10 wt% Ag/ZnO composites showed the best performance for photocatalysis and had the antibacterial activity.

Antibacterial and photocatalytic activity of anatase phase Ag-doped TiO2 nanoparticles
摘要: A simple and new solid-state molten-salt method to synthesise silver (Ag)-doped titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles for solar light-induced photocatalytic applications is examined. Ag-doped TiO2 nanoparticles with varied Ag content ranging from 3 to 10% were synthesised by a single-step molten-salt synthesis method. The effect of Ag content on the antibacterial and photocatalytic activity of nanoparticles was tested. The prepared nanoparticles were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectrometry, ultraviolet–visible (UV–vis) diffusive re?ectance spectrometer (UV–vis DRS) and powder X-ray diffraction. The SEM image of nanoparticles clearly showed the presence of agglomerated spherical particles. The EDX analysis of the particles con?rmed successful doping of particles in the presence of the Ag in the particles. The doping of Ag in TiO2 produced TiO2 pure anatase phase. According to UV–vis DRS results, increasing Ag-doped content in the Ag-doped TiO2 resulted in a higher visible absorption capability of the materials. Ag doping also improved the antibacterial and photocatalytic activity of TiO2 nanoparticles. The maximum photocatalytic activity under light irradiation was observed for 5% Ag-doped TiO2.

Biosynthetic Transition Metal Chalcogenide Semiconductor Nanoparticles: Progress in Synthesis, Property Control and Applications
摘要: Transition metal (TM) chalcogenides are a group of semiconductor materials with applications that range from antibacterial particles to thin films in energy conversion devices. Significant progress in synthetic biology combined with the benefits of low energy consumption and low toxic waste burden of “green synthesis,” have directed considerable research attention to the biosynthesis of these inorganic materials. TM chalcogenide nanoparticles (NP) can be produced by a variety of microorganisms including bacteria, fungi, algae, and yeast, as well as cell-free approaches using enzymes. Recent research shows that the size, crystal structure, and bandgap of these TM NPs can be well controlled, which has led to prototypical applications of these biosynthetic NPs in the areas of bio-remediation, bio-imaging, photocatalysis, and energy conversion. This review is the first to combine recent progress in the biosynthesis, property control, and applications of TM chalcogenide NPs.

Structure, Properties, Photocatalytic and Antibacterial Activity and Applications of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles—An Overview
摘要: Nanotechnology is a science that deals with various structures of matter at the scale of a billionth of a meter. It is also the study of changing matter at the nanometres scales to create novel structures and devices. A nano particle is the most fundamental unit component in the fabrication of a nanostructure and is far smaller than the world of everyday’s objects that are described by Newton’s laws of motion. But on the other side, a nanoparticle is bigger than atoms or simple molecules that are governed by quantum mechanics. In general, the size of a nano particle is seen in the range 1–100 nm. Nanoparticles have physical and chemical properties that are different from bulk metals like low melting points, high specific surface areas, good optical properties, mechanical strengths and specific magnetizations. No wonder, nanotechnology plays a significant role in electronics, medicine and other fields. Recent growth of zinc oxides (ZnO) as semiconducting materials with novel, unique optical and magnetic properties has made them to be the versatile and suitable materials for electronic, spintronic, optoelectronic, photocatalytic examination along with antibacterial applications. From the above-said applications, the present review paper specifically focuses on finding the right material with excellent optical features for photocatalytic and antibacterial applications.
