Doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) is an effective anthracycline anticancer drug . However, the exceeded taken up could induce several side-effects such as cardiotoxicity, alopecia. Therefore, the level of DOX needs to be closely monitored to avoid the occurrence of its side-effects. Herein, we report a novel core CuInSe 2 - shell ZnS quantum dots (CuInSe 2 @ZnS, QDs) and Ag nanoparticles (NPs) fluorescence sensor based on the surface plasmon resonance effect (SPR) of Ag NPs. The CuInSe 2 @ZnS QDs were prepared by water phase reflux method with the 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) as stabilizer and ligand. The fluorescence intensity of CuInSe 2 @ZnS QDs/Ag NPs significantly reduced by DOX, which is mainly based on the electrostatic interaction between the DOX and fluorescence sensors. The inhibition of photoluminescence (ln F 0 /F) was linearly relationship to the concentration of DOX in the range of 2–100 μM with the detection limit as low as 0.05 μM. The as-prepared sensor has a high selectivity and sensitivity to DOX. Furthermore, the new sensor has been successfully applied to the determination of DOX in human serum samples with satisfactory results. Our work provides a clue for developing a novel CuInSe 2 @ZnS QDs/Ag NPs based fluorescence sensor for DOX detection.

In this study, the carbon fiber reinforced ZrB 2 -SiC composite ceramic was joined to Ti6Al4V alloy with Ag-Cu eutectic alloy filler at varied holding time and a fixed temperature of 800℃. Interface microstructure and shear strength of brazing joints were studied. The brazed ZSC f ceramics/AgCu/TC4 alloy is endowed with good metallurgical bondings. A typical interfacial structure of joints brazed for 10 min was found as ZSC f /TiC/Ti 5 Si 3 /Ag(s,s)/Cu(s,s) + TiC/TiCu/Ti 2 Cu/(TiC + TiCu)/TC4 alloy. Increase of holding time did not vary the precipitated phase of the joints but decreased thickness of the Ag(s, s) and Cu(s, s) reaction layer and gradually thickened the Ti-Cu reaction layer near the TC4 side. The formation process of reaction products was discussed in detail. The holding time substantially influenced shear strength of the joints. A maximum shear strength of 39 MPa was reached at a brazing time of 20 min.

Superwetting surfaces that repel various liquids have been exciting for biomimetic research and have displayed versatile potential applications. Generally, superhydrophobic coatings can allow for droplet rolling off and antifouling, whereas it is a challenge to achieve superomniphobic surfaces with transparency, flexibility, and conductivity. Here, we adopt an effective and simple method to fabricate a superomniphobic, transparent, and flexible smart silk fibroin (SF) membrane by spray-coating long AgNWs dispersed in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), followed by treatment with vacuum drying. The resulting SF/AgNWs membranes are super-repellent to different liquids with low surface tension and water, and demonstrate high contact angles (CAs) more than 150° and low rolling-off angles (RAs) even less than 10°. Moreover, the obtained membranes display superior sensitivity under stretching and bending, as well as intact stability of high transparency, which can be considered as promising flexible sensing electronics to detect human motions under wet conditions.

Methotrexate (MTX) is a drug with broad-spectrum antitumor activity that is of great importance in therapeutic drug monitoring applications. In this essay, the two-step modified concentrated Ag colloid with the assistance of KF and MgSO 4 was used as the SERS active substrate for the ultrasensitive detection of MTX and its commercial formulations (tablets). It can be found that the two-step modification of the samples is a crucial procedure to remove the by-products in the synthesis of Ag colloid and further concentrate the Ag colloid. Under the optimal detection conditions, the minimum detection concentration of MTX is 1 × 10 −16 mol/L. And, there is a good linear relationship over a wide concentration range of 1 × 10 −16 –1 × 10 −6 mol/L. The labelled amounts of the two manufacturers of MTX commercial tablets are in the range of 96.4–104.3% with the RSDs between 1.8% and 3.5% by this method, which are in accordance with the methodological requirements. These results prove that the proposed SERS method exhibits a good reproducibility and ultra-high sensitivity for the detection of the antitumor drug MTX.

Shape-tunable PtAg nanocatalysts including PtAg nanoflowers (NFs) and PtAg nanowires (NWs) are prepared by a facile hydrothermal reduction method, via adjusting the precursor ratio of Pt/Ag and subsequent UV-irradiation. Physicochemical characterizations reveal that the as-prepared catalysts have a porous structure , which forms from the conversion of AgCl to Ag nanoparticles . These features favor both oxygen mass transfer and accessibility of active sites. The as-prepared Pt 1 Ag 4 NWs exhibit superior catalytic performances for ORR. The mass activity of Pt 1 Ag 4 NWs is 11.4 times higher than that of 20% Pt/C. More important, the electrochemically active surface area (ECSA) of Pt 1 Ag 4 NWs is 2.5 times larger than that of commercial Pt/C.

Chitosan oligosaccharide functionalized silver nanoparticles with synergistic bacterial activity were constructed as a multivalent inhibitor of bacteria. Placing the chitosan oligosaccharide on silver nanoparticles can dramatically enhance the adsorption to the bacterial membrane via multivalent binding. The multicomponent nanostructures can cooperate synergistically against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The antibacterial activity was increased via orthogonal array design to optimize the synthesis condition. The synergistic bacterial activity was confirmed by fractional inhibitory concentration and zone of inhibition test. Through studies of antimicrobial action mechanism, it was found that the nanocomposites interacted with the bacteria by binding to Mg 2+ ions of the bacterial surface. Then, the nanocomposites disrupted bacterial membrane by increasing the permeability of the outer membrane, resulting in leakage of cytoplasm. This strategy of chitosan oligosaccharide modification can increase the antibacterial activity of silver nanoparticles and accelerate wound healing at the same time. The nanomaterial without cytotoxicity has promising applications in bacteria-infected wound healing therapy.

In this article, the effect of the distinctiveness and arrangements on the plasmonic resonance of Cu–Ag system were studied by finite element method , and the effect of morphologies on the plasmonic properties of Cu@Ag core@shell NPs and Cu–Ag corn-cob liked NPs was investigated by experiment. For Cu@Ag core-shell structure, as the fixed thickness of Ag-shell at 10 nm, the dipole plasmon resonance gradually blue-shifts with increasing the radius of Cu core, and as the fixed radius of Cu-core at 50 nm, the feature peak shows a red-shift and broadening with increasing the thickness of Ag shell. For Cu–Ag corn-cob structure, the feature for different Ag coverage are similar to each other and most of the them follow the blue-shifted tendency with the increase the degree of Ag-coverage. Furthermore, as the regular-shaped structure increases (form trigonal to spherical), the plasmon resonance gradually blue shifts, and finally, we use two parameters to describe the different idealized Cu–Ag structure: separation, exterior contact, intersection and core@shell. The combined information from our simulation and experiment will give guidelines for choosing adequate particles when aiming at certain plasmonic properties.

In this study, tungsten oxide microstructures/nanostructures with different morphologies were prepared by the hydrothermal synthesis methods. The morphologies and structures of the obtained products were characterised by field-emission scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The photocatalytic properties of tungsten oxide microstructures/nanostructures were characterised by the degradation of rhodamine B solution. The results indicate that tungsten oxide microspheres prepared by using tungstic acid and hydrogen peroxide solution as raw materials show the highest photocatalytic activity. By changing the concentration of tungstic acid used in the synthesis process, the morphologies of tungsten oxide microspheres can be controlled. The influences of the amount of chemical reagent addition on its morphology and catalytic properties were discussed. In order to further improve the photocatalytic activity of the samples, Ag nanoparticles were loaded on the obtained tungsten oxide microspheres. The photocatalytic experiment results indicate that the photocatalytic performance of tungsten oxide was improved by Ag loading. The results indicate that Ag-loaded tungsten oxide microspheres are favourable for their photocatalytic applications.

Nitrite (NO2–) in water and food is a potential threat to human health. The determination of nitrite content is very significant for people’s life safety. Here, 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP)-modulated silver growth on gold nanospheres (GNSs) was designed to detect nitrite. It was verified that the exposed amino groups of 4-ATP molecules on GNSs can accelerate Ag overgrowth. On the contrary, the deamination reaction of 4-ATP with nitrite can reduce the Ag overgrowth rates. 4-ATP modified on GNSs can not only increase the spectrophotometry response of nitrite with a low limit of detection (LOD = 36 nM) but also obtain a wide and flexible detection range (0–60 μM). In addition, this method showed good selectivity to nitrite. The excellent optical response, the sharp contrast between the acceleration and deceleration of Ag growth, and the customizable basic setting of the sensing ligands can provide a universal design scheme for high-performance detection methods.

Fabricating rapid and high-efficient charge-transfer pathways is contributing to improving charge separation and receiving extensive concerns in preparation of semiconductors composites photocatalysts. In this work, ternary Ag/AgCl/Ta 2 O 5−x mesocrystals were fabricated for visible-light photodegradation of emerging pollutants by introducing Ag/AgCl nanoparticles into defects engineered Ta 2 O 5−x mesocrystals. The prepared composites showed efficient visible-light absorption and efficient visible-light photodegradation of emerging pollutants, mainly attributed to the fabricating of high-efficient Z-scheme charge-transfer pathways between Ag/AgCl and Ta 2 O 5−x mesocrystals. Note that, the experimental results also demonstrated the significant roles of defects engineered Ta 2 O 5−x mesocrystals in fabricating high-efficient Z-scheme charge-transfer pathways. Besides, the prepared Ag/AgCl and Ta 2 O 5−x composites could be employed for efficient visible-light photodegradation of many other organic contaminants. Current work indicates a promising and high-performance visible-light composite photocatalyst for dealing with emerging contaminants.

The abuse of antibiotics has led to the emergence of numerous super resistant bacteria, which pose a serious threat to public health. Developing nanomaterials with novel modes of bactericidal activity offers the promise of fighting pathogens without the risk of causing drug resistances. Here, we used reduced graphene oxide (rGO), bulk molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) and silver nitrate (AgNO3) to synthesize a ternary nanocomposite, rGO–MoS2–Ag, via a simple one-pot method. The resulting rGO–MoS2–Ag presented as crumpled and sheet-like structures decorated with Ag nanoparticles. The minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration of rGO–MoS2–Ag against Escherichia coli were 50 and 100 μg ml−1, while Staphylococcus aureus reacted only to twice higher concentrations of 100 and 200 μg ml−1, respectively. Notably, rGO–MoS2–Ag exhibited better antibacterial activity towards E. coli and S. aureus than rGO, MoS2, or rGO–MoS2. This result can be attributed to the excellent performance of rGO–MoS2–Ag in destroying the bacterial cell membrane and inducing the generation of reactive oxygen species. The Ag+ ion release of rGO–MoS2–Ag was delayed, endowing the nanocomposite with long-term antibacterial capabilities and better biosafety. Our results indicate that the as-prepared rGO–MoS2–Ag has promising potential for application in biomedicine and public health.

Desalination performance of hybrid capacitive deionization (HCDI) intensively depends on the electrode materials with redox activity and capacitance ability. Herein, Ag-doped hollow ZIFs-derived nanoporous carbon (Ag/ZCs) was employed as an anode material by the pyrolysis of Ag-doped hollow ZIFs precursor, which was fabricated by in situ tannic acid (TA) etching/reduction strategy. Provably, TA serves as not only an etchant for tailoring ZIFs structure, but also a reductant for Ag nanoparticles formation. The obtained Ag/ZCs possesses unique hollow cavities and high redox activity. As expected, the HCDI system with Ag/ZCs electrode exhibits excellent deionization capacity of 29.18 mg g −1 in 500 mg L −1 NaCl solution at 1.2 V, which is much higher than that of conventional carbon-based CDI system. Moreover, desirable regeneration stability of the Ag/ZCs HCDI was well maintained after 20 cycle experiments. The results demonstrate that Ag/ZCs is a potential anode material for HCDI applications.
