In this paper, a novel grafted zeolite/Fe 3 O 4 /chitosan (ZMC-MAH-TEPA) adsorbent was greenly synthesized and evaluated for the removal of Cr(VI) and Ag(I) in single and bi-component solutions. The characterization data of XRF , XRD, FT-IR, VSM, TGA , BET and SEM showed the successful fabrication of the adsorbent with abundant -NH 2 and -NH- as well as great recovery properties (11.70 emu/g). The effects of experimental parameters, including pH value, initial concentration, temperature, time, and coexisting ions on single and bi-component adsorption, were investigated. The results demonstrated that the adsorption capacities increased with the enhanced shaking time and concentration until equilibrium was reached. The optimum pH value was 3 for Cr(VI) adsorption and 5 for Ag(I) adsorption. The maximum adsorption capacities for Cr(VI) and Ag(I) ions, obtained by the Langmuir model, were 50.75 and 70.12 mg·g −1 in single metal solutions and 45.45 and 58.94 mg·g −1 in bi-component metal solutions (Cr(VI)/Ag(I) = 1:1), respectively. Additionally, the adsorption mechanism of Cr(VI) and Ag(I) was explained in terms of electrostatic interaction and hydrogen bonding between metal ions and -NH 2 and -NH- in ZMC-MAH-TEPA. Taken together, this study provides a clean approach to synthesizing chitosan-based adsorbents for the efficient removal of Cr(VI) and Ag(I) ions.

In the era of global warming, the conversion of carbon dioxide into high-value products has become a widely scrutinized emerging mitigation strategy. Metalation of bpy-containing MOF-253 led to the synthesis of MOF-253–0.5Ag, which acts as an efficient catalyst for the carbonylative cyclization of CO2 with alkyne molecules (such as propynyl alcohols and propynyl amines) at room temperature and ambient CO2 pressure, yielding the corresponding α-alkyl cyclic carbonates and oxazolidinones, thus endowing the catalytic system with bifunctional characteristics. Additionally, the MOF-253–0.5Ag catalyst demonstrated stability, high activity, and recyclability. The mechanisms were further elucidated through experimental results and NMR analysis, demonstrating that Ag(I) can effectively activate the C≡C bonds and hydroxy/amino groups of the substrates.

Royal jelly as a functional food has great potential to promote human health. As a unique ingredient in royal jelly, 10-hydroxy-2-decenoic acid (10-HDA) is a vital criterion to evaluate the quality of royal jelly. Current approaches for 10-HDA detection mainly rely on high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC), but it requires large-scale equipment and skilled technicians that are costly and time-consuming. Herein, we report a colorimetric sensing strategy for 10-HDA detection based on Ag(I) and tetramethylbenzidine (TMB), a widely used chromogenic reagent. Ag(I) can oxidize TMB to generate oxidized TMB (oxTMB) showing a light-blue color. Due to the chelation with Ag (I), the introduction of 10-HDA can prevent the generation of oxTMB that results in a color fading and a decrease in absorbance. This colorimetric sensing strategy enables highly sensitive detection of 10-HDA with a linear range from 1 μM to 10 μM and a limit of detection of 0.13 μM. More importantly, this 10-HDA assay allows for a visual readout either by a smartphone or the naked eye with low cost, convenience, and rapid response that has been successfully applied for evaluating the quality of royal jelly in actual samples. The sensing strategy developed in this work provides a new colorimetric approach that holds great promise as a point-of-care platform for the food industry.

A superparamagnetic Fe 3 O 4 @Zn-AST nanocomposite was constructed. • The Fe 3 O 4 @Zn-AST had abundant N, S-containing functional groups. • The Fe 3 O 4 @Zn-AST exhibits a saturation magnetization of 61.29 emu/g. • The maximum adsorption capacity of Fe 3 O 4 @Zn-AST for Ag(I) was 1410.68 mg/g. Silver as a precious metal, is extensively utilized in jewelry, electronics and some other fields due to its excellent conductivity and ductility. With the growing demand for silver, excessive exploitation of silver ore resources has generated large volumes of Ag(I)-containing wastewater. The direct release of untreated Ag(I)-containing wastewater contaminates ecosystems and poses risks to human health. Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) exhibit a notably specific surface area, ample unsaturated metal sites, ease of functionalization, and tunable pore size and structure, which make them highly promising materials for effective adsorption of pollutants from wastewater. However, pure MOFs are typically in powder form, which are not easy to separate and recover after adsorption. In this work, using the zinc nitrate hexahydrate as the metal precursor along with 2-amino-5-sulfanyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole (AST) as the multi-dentate organic ligand, a superparamagnetic Fe 3 O 4 @Zn-AST nanocomposite was prepared via in-situ solvothermal method. The Fe 3 O 4 @Zn-AST exhibits a saturation magnetization of 61.29 emu/g, meeting the requirements for magnetic separation. The maximum Ag(I) adsorption capacity of Fe 3 O 4 @Zn-AST is 1410.68 mg/g, and adsorption process is mainly chemical adsorption, featured by endothermic, disordered, and spontaneous. Adsorption-desorption experiments prove that the removal efficiency can remain above 91% even after five cycles. From FT-IR and XPS, the Fe 3 O 4 @Zn-AST adsorbing Ag(I) was mainly through the synergistic effect of -SH, N-containing functional groups and electrostatic interactions. Given the magnetic separation advantage and superior Ag(I) adsorption, Fe 3 O 4 @Zn-AST could serve as a promising adsorbent.

N, Si, S co-doped graphene quantum dots (N, Si, S-GQDs) were synthesized from waste toner and glutathione (GSH) via a one-pot hydrothermal method. Combined with o-phenylenediamine (OPD), a rapid, visual, and autocatalytic ratiometric fluorescence sensor of N, Si, S-GQDs/OPD was fabricated for detecting Ag(I) and Fe(III) ions by producing 2,3-diaminophenazine (oxOPD) under pH 8, which emits yellow fluorescence at 560 nm while quenching the blue fluorescence of N, Si, S-GQDs at 440 nm due to an inner filter effect. With the increase of Ag(I)/Fe(III), the blue fluorescence of N, Si, S-GQDs at 440 nm was gradually weakened, along with the enhancement of yellow fluorescence at 560 nm. Hence, this color change from blue to yellow under UV light enables semi-quantitative visual detection. The sensor demonstrates high sensitivity with detection limits of 0.016 µg mL −1 for Ag(I) and 0.010 µg mL −1 for Fe(III), and it successfully detects these ions in lake and tap water without pretreatment. The autocatalytic mechanism involves Ag(I) and Fe(III) reduction to Ag nanoparticles and Fe(II), respectively, which further catalyze the reaction, enhancing selectivity and efficiency. The method is cost-effective, simple, and suitable for on-site environmental monitoring.

A novel electromagnetic material has been synthesized through P -phenylenediamine-benzoquinone (PB) Schiff base Ag(I) complexes chemically bonded to few-layered graphene (FLG). The structure of the samples was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The shape and size were observed by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The conductive properties were tested by a four-probe conductivity tester at room temperature, and the magnetic properties of the samples were tested with the vibrating sample magnetometer. These results show that the PB Schiff base Ag(I) complexes are chemically bonded onto the FLG layers. The conductivity, magnetic saturation, residual magnetization, and coercive force of the composite achieve 5.86 S cm −1 , 1.47 emu g −1 , 0.26 emu g −1 , and 208.3 Oe, respectively. Finally, based on the experimental results, the probable formation, electronic transmission, and magnetic mechanism have also been investigated.

In this work, a novel strategy of colorimetric and photothermal dual-mode sensing determination of ascorbic acid (AA) based on a Ag+/3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) system was developed. In this sensing system, Ag+ could oxidize TMB with a distinct color change from colorless to blue color, strong absorbance at 652 nm and a photothermal effect under 808 nm laser irradiation due to the formation of oxidized TMB (oxTMB). When AA was present, oxTMB was reduced accompanied by a change from blue to colorless, and a decrease in absorption peak intensity and the photothermal effect. AA concentration showed a negative linear correlation with the value of both the absorbance intensity at 652 nm and temperature in the range of 0.2–10 μM (A = −0.03C + 0.343 (R2, 0.9887; LOD, 50 nM); ΔT = −0.57C + 8.453 (R2, 0.997; LOD, 7.8 nM)). Based on this, a sensing approach for detection of AA was proposed with dual-mode and without the complicated synthesis of nanomaterials. The photothermal effect and colorimetric signal provided a dual-mode detection strategy for AA, overcoming the limitations of any single mode. This colorimetric and photothermal dual-mode detection has great potential in the detection of AA in clinical pharmaceuticals and the construction of portable and highly sensitive sensors.

Heavy metal ion contamination poses a serious threat to human health and ecological balance, emphasizing the need for sensitive detection methods to maintain water quality and safeguard public safety. To meet this challenge, an integrated quantitative detection platform based on smartphone image capture and a built-in RGB color analysis app, following a “one-stone-three-birds” strategy, was developed. It allows for rapid, sensitive, and on-site detection of silver ions (Ag(I)) in actual water samples. In the presence of Ag(I) ions, the aggregation of AuNPs with ammonium thioglycolate (ATG), which acts as a multifunctional agent (an aggregation inducer, charge modulator, and recognition unit), is inhibited, resulting in a notable hypsochromic shift in the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectrum of AuNPs and a color change from gray-blue to pink-red, depending on the target level. Quantitative analysis is performed by measuring the color signal intensity of AuNPs after adding Ag(I) ions with a smartphone equipped with an RGB color detector. The detection mechanism was verified further through transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and UV-Vis spectrophotometry (UV-Vis). The smartphone-integrated detection method exhibited a linear range of 0.1 to 8 µM and a detection limit of 10.4 nM. Results from this platform, paired with a smartphone, were validated against data from atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). This smartphone-based detection approach offers the benefits of simplicity, speed, and low cost, making it suitable for environmental monitoring of Ag(I) ions.

Highly efficient and selective extraction of silver ions from wastewater remains a formidable challenge in ensuring public health and protecting ecosystems. Herein, an acyl-based thiourea extractant known as N-benzoyl-N′,N′-dibutyl thiourea (BDBTU) was used for the selective extraction of silver ions from aqueous solution by a solvent extraction method. BDBTU displayed an outstanding extraction efficiency of Ag(I) with an extraction ratio of 96.7% under the optimal extraction conditions, surpassing its effectiveness for Cu(II) and Mn(II) ions. In addition, BDBTU retained high effectiveness even after undergoing eight regeneration cycles, with only a slight decrease in the extraction efficiency from 96.7% to 95.2%. Moreover, it displayed selective extraction towards Ag(I) ions under the interference of metal ions (i.e., Cu(II), Pb(II), Mn(II), Zn(II), Ni(II), Co(II) and Na(I)). The investigation into the extraction mechanism of BDBTU towards Ag(I) unveiled that BDBTU provided a high affinity for Ag(I) accompanied by the formation of Ag–O–C and Ag–S–C bonds. These results indicated that the exceptional extraction stability and selectivity of BDBTU offer promising prospects for diverse applications, highlighting its potential in silver-containing wastewater treatment fields.

Novel fluorescent nitrogen and phosphorus-doped carbon dots (Aa N,P-CDs) derived from Auricularia auricula were successfully prepared via a simple hydrothermal method. The Aa N,P-CDs showed high selectivity and sensitivity in detection of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) and Ag(I) and good linear ranges of 4-NP (0–37.5 μM, R2 = 0.9967) and Ag(I) (0–25 μM, R2 = 0.9934). The low detection limits were 198 nM and 74.35 nM, respectively. This showed that static quenching dominated in Ag(I) quenching of the Aa N,P-CD fluorescence, while that of 4-NP was the inner filter effect. The Aa N,P-CDs were successfully used to detect 4-NP and Ag(I) in real water and soil samples. Cell imaging indicated that Aa N,P-CDs showed low biotoxicity and good biocompatibility, which provided a new insight into bioimaging application and environmental pollutant detection.

In this work, Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized quickly by a one-step method utilizing polydopamine-glutathione nanoparticles (PDA-GNPs) as a reducing agent. The PDA-GNPs and the generated AgNPs acted as the energy donor and acceptor, respectively. Accordingly, the fluorescence of PDA-GNPs was quenched on the basis of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). In the presence of melamine, the preferential combination of Ag(I) and melamine to form Ag(I)–melamine complex prevents Ag(I) from forming AgNPs, together with fluorescence enhancement compared with the absence of melamine. Under the optimal conditions including the concentration of AgNO3, reaction time, reaction temperature, and pH, the fluorescence enhancement efficiency has a linear response to the concentration of melamine from 0.1 to 40 μM with a detection limit of 23 nM for melamine. The proposed method is simple, time-saving, and low-cost, which was further applied to detect melamine in real milk products with satisfactory results.

Fumonisin B1 (FB1) is a secondary metabolite produced by Fusariums , which principally contaminates grains and their products, causing pathological and physiological toxicity to humans and animals. Herein, a convenient and rapid colorimetric strategy for FB1 detection was established based on the inhibition effect of FB1 on Ag(I)–3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) catalytic system. It was found that FB1 can hinder the generation of superoxide anions (O 2 · - ) in the sensing solution, leading to a significant reduction of oxTMB production. Thus, the absorbance and color change of the solution are directly related to the concentration of FB1. Under optimal experimental conditions, there is a satisfactory sensitivity with a limit of detection (LOD) as low as 1.77 ng·mL −1 . Moreover, such colorimetric strategy has outstanding selectivity, and can be used for the detection of FB1 residues in corn and infant rice flour, with a recovery rate of 90.15–109.74 %. Especially, the RGB values corresponding to chromogenic solutions with different FB1 contents can be easily recognized by a smartphone for qualitative and quantitative analysis of FB1. The colorimetric sensing strategy does not require the preparation of nanomaterial, providing a low-cost and promising analysis strategy for FB1 detection.
