Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes) is one of the most lethal pathogenic bacteria. Although the traditional microbial culture method has high sensitivity and selectivity for the diagnosis of L. monocytogenes, it is time-consuming and not suitable for on-site detection. A rapid, convenient and visualized on-site detection method is particularly needed. In this work, Fe3O4@UiO-66-NH2 was prepared for both magnetic separation and lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) for the detection of L. monocytogenes by taking advantage of the easy separation of the magnetic core Fe3O4 and the high surface area of the outer layer UiO-66-NH2. Fe3O4@UiO-66-NH2 with a high surface area and good water-dispersibility and optical properties was synthesized by a simple hydrothermal process. It could directly adsorb on the surface of target bacteria and form Fe3O4@UiO-66-NH2-bacteria conjugates, without the labeling of an antibody. After magnetic separation and concentration, the Fe3O4@UiO-66-NH2-bacteria conjugates were detected by the antibody on the test line of the LFIA strip, resulting in a visible orange band. The capture efficiency and LFIA detection of Fe3O4@UiO-66-NH2 were optimized in this study. Under the optimal conditions, a good linear correlation between the test line intensity and the concentration of L. monocytogenes was obtained in the range of 105–108 CFU mL−1, and the limit of detection was 2.2 × 106 CFU mL−1 by the naked eye. The Fe3O4@UiO-66-NH2-based LFIA strip showed strong specificity for L. monocytogenes, and the detection took 45 min without culture enrichment. Therefore, the proposed Fe3O4@UiO-66-NH2-based strip showed the advantages of simple synthesis, being label-free, low cost, good selectivity and convenience.

In this paper, Ag NPs-decorated magnetic Fe 3 O 4 @PDA nanocomposites have been successfully prepared. The spherical Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles with an average size approximately 340 nm were modified by dopamine under mild conditions. Dopamine was self-polymerized surrounding Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles and transformed into poly dopamine (PDA) layers. The PDA-encapsulated magnetic (Fe 3 O 4 @PDA) nanoparticles could in-situ reduce silver ammonium ions by the catechol groups in PDA layers. The Ag NPs with an average size ranging from 20 nm to 36 nm were densely decorated on the thin PDA shell. The resultant Fe 3 O 4 @PDA-Ag nanocomposites were employed as highly efficient catalysts for the reduction of different organic pollutants in the appearance of sodium borohydride. The Fe 3 O 4 @PDA-Ag nanocomposites also demonstrated extraordinary cycling stability when the catalyst was recycled several times for the reduction of MB. The antimicrobial tests indicated Fe 3 O 4 @PDA-Ag nanocomposites could efficiently prohibit the growth of microorganism, including various bacteria and fungi. The minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) for Fe 3 O 4 @PDA-Ag nanocomposites against different bacteria and fungi were also determined. The excellent catalytic activity, magnetic recyclability, and antimicrobial performance make Fe 3 O 4 @PDA-Ag a feasible candidate for the remediation of wastewater which contains multiple water soluble organic pollutants and pathogenic microorganism.

Iron oxide @ poly(m-phenylenediamine) (Z) particles (Fe 3 O 4 @PmPD(Z)) were synthesized by in-situ polymerization of PmPD on the Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles via ZIF-8 intermediate platform to remove Cr(VI) from wastewater. Analyses of FT-IR, TEM, etc. were performed to evaluate the morphology and structure of synthesized material, and the results confirmed the successful synthesis of Fe 3 O 4 @PmPD(Z). In addition, the TEM and BET analyses results show that the PmPD shell is a flocculating structure, and the increased specific surface area increases the contact with Cr(VI). The Fe 3 O 4 @PmPD(Z) exhibits much better Cr(VI) adsorption performance than Fe 3 O 4 @PmPD, and its adsorption capacity is increased by about 30%, the maximum Cr(VI) adsorption capacity can reach 371.75 mg g −1 at 318 K. According to FT-IR, XPS , and EDS , the removal mechanisms can be attributed to the redox reaction of Cr(Ⅵ) and NH to form N and Cr(Ⅲ), and N shares electron pair with Cr(Ⅲ) to form chelation. At the same time, the appearance of N + also contributes to the removal of Cr(Ⅵ) by generating electrostatic attraction with the negatively charged HCrO 4 - . Besides, the Fe 3 O 4 @PmPD(Z) also exhibits excellent properties of recovery and reuse. Therefore, the current work proves that Fe 3 O 4 @PmPD(Z) has the potential to remove heavy metals in wastewater.

The latent dangers of waterborne viral transmission have become a major public health concern. In this study, reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles were decorated with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) to adsorb severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike pseudovirus and three human enteric viruses (HuNoV, HRV, and HAdV). The successful combination of CTAB with rGO-Fe 3 O 4 was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, zeta potential, Brunner-Emmet-Teller, and vibrating sample magnetometer measurements. The adsorption of HuNoV and HAdV followed pseudo-first-order kinetics, while that of HRV conformed to the pseudo-second-order model. CTAB-functionalized rGO-Fe 3 O 4 exhibited exceptionally high adsorption of HuNoV, HRV, HAdV and SARS-CoV-2 spike pseudovirus, with maximum adsorption capacities of 3.55 × 10 7 , 7.01 × 10 7 , 2.21 × 10 7 and 6.92 × 10 6 genome copies mg −1 , respectively. Moreover, the composite could effectively adsorb the four types of virus particles from coastal, tap, and river water. In addition, concentrating the virions using CTAB functionalized rGO-Fe 3 O 4 composites before qPCR analysis significantly improved the detection limit. The results indicate that viruses are captured on the surface of CTAB functionalized rGO-Fe 3 O 4 composites through electrostatic interactions and the intrinsic adsorption ability of rGO. Overall, CTAB-functionalized rGO-Fe 3 O 4 composites are promising materials for the adsorption and detection of human enteric viruses as well as SARS-CoV-2 from complex aqueous environments.

In this study, a magnetic composite material was developed by bonding the modified natural polysaccharide chitosan (CTS) with SiO 2 on the surface of magnetic Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles to detect polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). The structural, porosity, and magnetic properties of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @CTS were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, nitrogen sorption, and vibrating sample magnetometry. Various experimental parameters affecting the extraction capacity were investigated, including extraction time, desorption time, desorption solvent, solution pH value, and salt ion concentration. Results showed that Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @CTS exhibited excellent selectivity, easy separation by magnet, and reusability (at least 10 cycles). Under optimized experimental condition, this magnetic solid phase extraction material was applied to detect three PCBs with low limits of detection of 0.02–0.15 μg·L −1 . The linear correlation coefficient was higher than 0.998, while the recoveries ranged between 90.34% and 106.99% with the relative standard deviation less than 11.31%. The practical application of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @CTS was verified through quantitative analysis of PCB residues in environmental water, supporting its promising role in simple, convenient, and low-cost detection of PCBs in real environmental samples.

A simple, green, and efficient mechanochemical approach was developed herein to prepare tunable magnetic graphene oxide nanoparticles. The obtained nanoparticles were successfully used as adsorbents in a magnetic dispersive solid-phase extraction method to extract three cationic dyes (i.e., thioflavine T, auramine-O, and basic orange 2) found in food samples. Our proposed approach also utilized high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection. Several key variables affecting the extraction recovery were investigated. These included the sample pH, amount of extractant, extraction time, sample volume, elution solvent type and volume, and the stability and reusability of the magnetic graphene oxide nanoparticles. Under optimized conditions, the calibration curve was linear at a concentration range of 0.005-1.0 μg/mL with a correlation coefficient of 0.9992-0.9996. Moreover, the limits of detection were determined at 0.97-1.35 μg/mL. The extraction mechanism was investigated via ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry and zeta-potential analyses. The developed method was used to analyze the above-mentioned cationic dyes in bean products and yellow fish samples. Notably, satisfactory spiked recoveries ranging from 90.7 to 104.9% were achieved.

In order to address the less-than-satisfactory interfacial properties and thermal conductivity of carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPs), a general solvent-free GO@Fe 3 O 4 nanofluid (GFNF) hybrid water-based sizing agent was prepared and applied for carbon fiber (CF) sizing. A discussion was conducted about the effects of different GFNF contents on the CF/epoxy composites (CF/EP) for their interfacial properties and thermal conductivity. In comparison with the composites made up of commercial CF and epoxy, the interfacial and thermal conductivities of the GFNFCF/EP composites were significantly improved. Notably, the increase in 2.5-GFNFCF/EP was most noticeable, with ILSS and flexural strength improved by 15% and 43.6%, respectively. This is attributed to the uniform adhesion of GFNF to the CF surface, which enhances the physical-chemical interaction of fiber with matrix, promotes the dispersion of stress, and prevents cracking from spreading. Also, the thermal conductivity was improved by 128.9% due to the formation of continuous thermal conduction pathways at the interface. The mechanism behind interface and thermal conductivity enhancement of the composites was proposed. This hybrid sizing agent contributed a different solution to improving the interfacial properties and thermal conductivity of CFRPs at the same time.

In this study, the novel magnetic core–shell composites Fe3O4@UiO-66-HPA, consisting of magnetic Fe3O4@UiO-66 and vanadium-substituted Keggin-type heteropolyacid active species supported by Zr-MOF, were successfully prepared via a one-pot method and fully investigated using FT-IR, XRD, SEM, TEM, TEM-EDX, ICP, VSM and N2 adsorption–desorption isotherms. The synthetic composites were employed as catalysts in an ODS system of simulated fuel under oxygen. The catalyst Fe3O4@UiO-66-PW9V3 exhibits the supreme catalytic performance in this work, with sulfur removal of 99.85% and a TOF value of 31.16 h−1 under optimal reaction conditions (0.2 g catalyst mass, 60 °C reaction temperature, 500 rpm stirring speed, 1 L min−1 oxidant quantity and 180 min reaction time), and can also be recycled ten times without apparent loss of catalytic performance. Furthermore, the kinetic study shows that the ODS process accords with the pseudo-first-order model.

A shortage in the supply of3He used for thermal neutron detector makes researchers to find3He alternatives for developing new neutron detectors. Here, we prepared a neutron-sensitive composite liposome with tributyl borate and encapsulating with Fe3O4@oleic acid nanoparticles (Fe3O4@OA NPs), methylene blue (MB), or anti-albumin from bovine serum (anti-BSA). The tributyl borate compound was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). In addition, the morphology, element compositions, and magnetic properties of the composite liposome were investigated with transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), respectively. The results indicated that a typical ellipsoidal magnetic liposome structure was obtained, and the lengths of the minor axis and major axis were 49 ± 1 nm and 87 ± 3 nm, respectively. Under thermal neutron irradiation, the structure of composite liposome was destroyed, and encapsulated reporter molecules were released, which was detected by ultraviolet–visible (UV–vis) spectroscopy and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technology. The response of this sensor based on a destructive assay shows a good correlation with neutron doses. Besides, the sensor has a neutron to gamma-ray rejection ratio of 1568 at a thermal neutron flux rate of 135.6 n/cm2·s, which makes it a promising alternative to3He.Keywords:neutron detector;magnetic liposome;methylene blue (MB);anti-BSA;surface plasmon resonance

Herein, an organic-inorganic hybrid nanomaterial (MGO@CD-CA-HA) has been constructed successfully by coating the β-cyclodextrin-cholic acid-hyaluronic acid polymer (CD-CA-HA) onto the Fe 3 O 4 -graphene oxide (MGO). The MGO@CD-CA-HA revealed satisfactory multiple-targeted features including the cholic acid supplied hepatic-target, CD44-receptor target of hyaluronic acid and magnetic target of Fe 3 O 4 . Meanwhile, the hydrophobic antitumor drug camptothecin (CPT) was easily loaded by MGO@CD-CA-HA to form the MGO@CD-CA-HA/CPT nanocomposite, and the maximum theoretical adsorption capacity can reach 847.4 mg/g. Based on the facile photothermal response of MGO , the near-infrared radiation (808 nm) induced local hyperthermia was directly generated the apoptosis of tumor cells while triggered the release of CPT. Comparing with other kinds of cancer cells and normal hepatocyte cells, this PCT system provides a significant inhibitory effect for the liver cancer cells in vitro . Furthermore, the synergistic photochemical therapy presented the strong antitumor effect (the tumor inhibition rate > 90 %) in vivo . Thus, this study provided a promising multiple-targeted nanocarrier for chemo-photothermal combination therapy of liver cancer.

The advancement of electrocatalysts using non-precious metals with excellent catalytic ability and durability for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) remains an enormous challenge. Transition metal–nitrogen–carbon (M–N–C) materials become target products with great development and application prospects for the ORR in new electrochemical energy storage and conversion devices. Herein, a simple preparation procedure of N-doped hierarchically porous carbon nanospheres loaded with Fe3O4/Fe2O3/Fe nanoparticles (Fe–CNSs–N) is developed by direct annealing of an Fe-doped quinone-amine polymer in an NH3/Ar atmosphere. Due to the integration of large specific surface area, hierarchically porous structure, and Fe3O4/Fe2O3/Fe nanoparticles, Fe–CNSs–N presents a half-wave potential of 0.835 V vs. RHE, which is 7 mV more positive than that of a commercial Pt/C catalyst in an alkaline medium. It also exhibits outstanding long-cycle durability as well as methanol endurance, superior to the Pt/C catalyst. Compared to the zinc–air battery based on Pt/C, the Fe–CNSs–N-based battery presents a higher open-circuit potential of 1.54 V, steadier discharge–charge cycle performance and an outstanding maximum power density of 106.8 mW cm−2. The excellent electrocatalytic performances make Fe–CNSs–N a promising substitute for Pt/C noble-metal catalysts in rechargeable Zn–air batteries.

A rapid and efficient magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) method, based on Fe3O4@β-cyclodextrin–lipid bilayer nanocomposites (Fe3O4@β-CD–LB), was built. The MSPE method coupled with GC-QTOF-MS has been designed for the trace detection of nine organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in soil samples. The Fe3O4@β-CD–LB was successfully synthesized and characterized by vibrating sample magnetometry, Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, transmission electron microscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. In this experiment, the OCPs in the soil samples were firstly extracted with n-hexane/dichloromethane (v/v 1 : 1) at high pressure and temperature, and then subjected to MSPE for adsorption and purification. Considering the synergy effect between host–guest inclusion complexation and hydrophobic interaction in the adsorption mechanism, the bi-functionalized magnetic nanocomposites exhibited excellent adsorption properties for the OCPs and natural resistance to interference by macromolecules. Under the optimum experimental conditions, the method showed wide linear ranges with low limits of detection (4.5 to 34 pg g−1). The results showed that the mean recoveries of the OCPs in the soil samples were 78–107% with 3.0–6.1% intra-day relative standard deviation (RSD) and 3.5–6.9% inter-day RSD. The method has been applied for the determination of the OCPs in actual samples, and ΣOCPs ranged between 0 and 2.3 ng g−1 in seven soil samples.
