Nuclear matrix protein 22 (NMP22) is a crucial bladder cancer marker, the accurate detection of which is conductive to improving the effectiveness of tumor prevention and treatment. However, due to low sensitivity, it is impossible for conventional immunoassay to detect the trace of NMP22 at the early stages of tumor progression. It is crucial to develop a simple, sensitive and accurate detection method of NMP22. As a variety of two-dimensional (2D) material, reduced graphene oxide-tetraethylene pentamine (rGO-TEPA) demonstrates excellent conductivity and contains abundant amino groups. As a sort of 3D material, silica-modified Cu-based metalorganic frameworks deposited silver nanoparticles ( [email protected] 2 @AgNPs) composites are characterized by large surface area, excellent biocompatibility and water stability, which allows the immobilization of anti-NMP22 in large amounts via Ag-N bonds. Through a combination of the advantages exhibited by 2D material, 3D material, AgNPs and disposable screen-printed electrode, a disposable and sensitive label-free electrochemical immunosensor has been successfully assembled for NMP22 detection. In addition to exhibiting a wide linear range (0.1 pg∙mL −1 -1000 ng∙mL −1 ) and a low detection limit (33.33 fg∙mL −1 , S/N = 3), the proposed immunosensor also demonstrated satisfactory selectivity, strong reproducibility and high stability. Moreover, the excellent performance in detecting human urine samples makes it applicable in practice.

The porous HSN-rGO has a high BET specific surface area of 464.3 m 2 g −1 . The N content in HSN-rGO is 5.27 at.%. The HSN-rGO shows a strong adsorption capability for the soluble lithium polysulfides (LiPSs) and more importantly it presents an excellent catalytic capability for the redox conversion of LiPSs. The HSN-rGO modified separator can inhibit the shuttle effect of LiPSs in Li-S battery. Besides, the HSN-rGO based separator has a good electrolyte wettability. The catalytic activity of HSN-rGO and Li + diffusion property in Li-S battery are well studied quantitatively. The Li-S battery with HSN-rGO-PP separator exhibits a high initial discharge capacity of 1372.8 mAh g −1 at 0.1 C and 681.5 mAh g −1 at 2 C, and a low-capacity decay rate of 0.055% per cycle for 1000 cycles at 1 C. This study proves the strategy that the HSN-rGO modified separator can effectively inhibit the shuttle effect of LiPSs and accelerate the redox reaction kinetics for high-performance Li-S battery.

Anode performance is a key factor for power output and long-term stability of microbial fuel cells (MFCs). This is because it considerably influences biofilm growth and extracellular electron transfer (EET). In this study, carbon cloth (CC) was used as the anode substrate, and a hydrophilic, biocompatible, and highly conductive CC–PDA–rGO anode was synthesized by surface modification with polydopamine (PDA) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) using an easy and facile solvent immersion method. The power density of the MFC with CC–PDA–rGO anode reached 2047 mW·m −2 , which was 6.1, 2.2, and 1.9 times greater than those of the CC, CC–PDA, and CC–rGO, respectively. The charge transfer resistance of the MFC prepared with the CC–PDA–rGO anode was ten-fold lower than that of the CC anode. Moreover, the EET was remarkably enhanced on the CC–PDA–rGO anode, and the electroactive biofilm of CC–PDA–rGO anode exhibited the highest cell viability. The CC–PDA–rGO anode achieved the highest cumulative total charge, which suggested that it had the best electron harvesting capacity. The foregoing can be attributed to the introduction of PDA and rGO onto the electrode surface. The PDA possesses superior hydrophilicity and excellent adhesive force for strong interaction with biofilm, whereas the rGO provides abundant electrochemically active sites to facilitate electron transfer from the biofilm to the anode. This work provides an easy and facile surface modification method for the development of high-performance MFC anode materials.

Oxygen and reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced during algal photosynthesis are important electron acceptors in photosynthetic algal microbial fuel cell (PAMFC) cathodes. In this study, spongy and petaline ZnO– [email protected] carbon felt cathodes were first fabricated through in situ ZnO–NiO growth and further modified with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) via electrodeposition and cyclic voltammetry reduction. The structural and electrochemical properties of the ZnO– [email protected] carbon felt cathodes were characterized, and the ROS adsorption capacity of the cathodes was analyzed via temperature programmed desorption and UV spectrophotometry. The results illustrated that the optimal molar ratio of Zn to Ni was 0.2 for cathode surface modification, and the specific surface areas of spongy and petaline ZnO 0.2 – [email protected] reached 215.26 and 230.88 mg·g −1 , respectively, which were more than 200-fold higher than that of prefabricated carbon felt. The areal capacitance values of spongy and petaline ZnO 0.2 – [email protected] cathodes reached 3033.5 and 6388.92 mC·cm −2 , respectively. The ROS concentrations on the spongy and petaline ZnO 0.2 – [email protected] cathode surfaces reached 52.36 and 64.02 μmol·L −1 , respectively, which were nearly 2-fold higher than that for prefabricated carbon felt cathode. The power densities of PAMFCs using spongy and petaline ZnO 0.2 – [email protected] as cathode electrodes were 20.18 and 31.92 mW·m −2 , respectively. The improvement of electrochemical performance of PAMFCs is partially ascribed to the enhanced ROS adsorption capacity of ZnO– [email protected] cathodes. Therefore, ROS adsorption capacity is recommended as an evaluation indicator for PAMFC cathodes.

Due to the complexity of harmful wastewater components, environmental and multifunctional materials are required for sewage purification. In this paper, a novel kidney-bean-skin-like hydrophilic porous polyacrylonitrile/reduced graphene oxide-g-poly(amidoxime)-loaded Ag+ (H-PPAN/rGO-g-PAO@Ag+/Ag) composite nanofiber membrane was fabricated by combining electrospinning and hydrolysis methods. The spinning solution was pumped at a rate of 0.4 mL/h with the voltage set at a constant value of 23 kV. Then, some of the −CN groups switched to hydrophilic −COOH groups via a hydrolysis method, which acts as a linker of GO-g-PAN, Ag+, and the polyacrylonitrile (PAN) matrix. A further step of chelation and thermal treatment were used for generating Schottky junctions between rGO-g-PAO@Ag+ and Ag. After five-cycle tests, it exhibited outstanding mechanical properties ensuring the filtration and purification performance of the H-PPAN/rGO-g-PAO@Ag+/Ag composite nanofiber membrane (i.e., the tensile strength was still 7.21 MPa, and the elongation was 61.53%) for simulated wastewater. The methods of thermal treatment and high-pressure Hg lamp irradiation promoted the reduction of GO to rGO and Ag+ to Ag particles, which endows the final product H-PPAN/rGO-g-PAO@Ag+/Ag with excellent photocatalytic and bactericidal properties. Its catalytic efficiency for dyes benzoic acid (BA), Rhodamine B (RhB), methylene blue (MB), and methyl orange (MO) was up to 99.8, 98, 95, and 91%. The antibacterial rate was 100% against Escherichia coli and 99% against Staphylococcus aureus. More importantly, the photocatalytic and antibacterial PAN-based nanofiber membrane can be simply scaled up, which provides the membrane with great potential in highly efficient wastewater treatment and augmenting water supply.

Photocatalytic reduction of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is an effective way to reduce its environmental risk. However, it remains a challenge to achieve a high removal rate in mild conditions. In order to efficiently remove Cr(VI) from water, a novel Z-scheme heterojunction composite photocatalyst rCB-20 (Cu 2 O/rGO/BiOBr, 20% Cu 2 O) was successfully prepared using a simple two-step strategy in this work. The characterizations of the catalyst show that the Z-scheme heterojunction formed between Cu 2 O and BiOBr is favorable for facilitating the separation of photogenerated carriers. The existence of rGO can reduce the resistance of electron transport. Therefore, the composite photocatalyst exhibits a very high photocatalytic activity in the photoreduction of Cr(VI). For example, using it to completely remove Cr(VI) with a concentration of 20 mg•L −1 in the pH = 4 solution only requires 40 min. Even the complete removal of the same concentration of Cr(VI) in neutral water at pH 7 does not take more than 90 min. Meanwhile, it possesses a high stability in catalytic activity and structure.

Wearable sensors are the development trend in the future iteration of medical devices , in which, flexible temperature sensors with high resolution, fast response speed, and good reliability under deformations, are one of the much important devices. In this study, a nano multilayer sensing structured fiber temperature sensor is fabricated via in situ coating reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and chitosan (CS) on the surface of stretchable polyurethane fiber (PF) by a layer-by-layer self-assembly method. The introduction of CS not only enhances the temperature sensitivity (with a temperature coefficient of −1.379 %‧°C −1 in the range of 30–60 °C) of the rGO-based fiber sensors but also greatly increases the mechanical stability of the nanofibrous membrane. Most importantly, the fiber-shaped temperature sensor shows a fast response time (2.4 s) and recovery time (3.9 s) to temperature. Moreover, the sensor achieves a high temperature resolution of 0.1 °C. Made from a simple and low-cost process, the fiber-like devices can be easily integrated into items such as gloves or face masks to monitor the real-time temperature changes. The results demonstrate the great potential of rGO-based fiber sensors for applications in human healthcare monitoring.

The nano zero-valent iron (nZVI)/peroxymonosulfate (PMS)-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are promising for removal of antibiotic contaminants in groundwater. However, the inherent defects of rapid passivation and inactivation limit the efficient and steady application of nZVI. Herein, the lanthanum@nZVI/rGO (La@nZVI/rGO) was synthesized in which nZVI was coated with La and distributed evenly on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) matrix. The introduction of La coating protected the nZVI from direct contact with PMS molecules thus the La@nZVI/rGO appeared efficient and steady activization of PMS to degrade ofloxacin (OFX) without rapid inactivation. The removal rate was promoted to 96.5 % compared with the uncoated nZVI/rGO (only 85.2 %). The degradation reaction represented steady and continuous activation of PMS with pseudo-first-order kinetics (0.0451 min −1 ). While the two-stage kinetics of nZVI/rGO/PMS with initial 0.2581 min −1 and instant 0.0024 min −1 resulted from the rapid inactivation of nZVI. The reaction of La@nZVI/rGO/PMS exhibited minimal leaching of Fe ions (less than 1.8 µg/L) while it reached 6.4 mg/L in nZVI/rGO/PMS. XRD and XPS analyses further demonstrated the excellent durability of La@nZVI/rGO and the obvious passivation of nZVI/rGO. ESR and quenching tests confirmed that La coating regulated the PMS activation and ROS generation mechanism. The degradation was dominated by 1 O 2 -induced non-free radical process in La@nZVI/rGO/PMS system and different from radical oxidation in nZVI/rGO/PMS. Moreover, the dissolved oxygen and XPS analysis revealed the important role of La coating and oxygen vacancy in the catalytic degradation. This work could provide a novel understanding of the nZVI with protective coating in AOPs environmental remediation.

The development of room-temperature chemiresistive gas sensors with low limit of detection, high sensitivity, and selectivity for dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) detection remains a challenge. Herein, a synergy of the two intermolecular hydrogen bond-promoted approach was proposed to fabricate a room-temperature DMMP sensor with enhanced performances. As a proof of concept, ternary p-hexafluoroisopropanol phenyl (HFIP) functionalized polypyrrole-reduced graphene oxide hybrids (HFIP-PPy-rGO) were rationally designed. During the sensing process, rGO serves as a conductive carrier, ensuring that the sensors operate at room temperature, and both HFIP and PPy act as adsorption sites for DMMP through hydrogen bonding interactions. As expected, the HFIP-PPy-rGO sensor exhibits high selectivity and sensitivity to DMMP. Besides, the HFIP-PPy-rGO sensor also possesses excellent linear response to DMMP and long-term stability. Experimental results and quartz crystal microbalance measurements prove that the specific recognition of DMMP is realized by forming two intermolecular hydrogen bonds between HFIP and DMMP, as well as PPy and DMMP. Additionally, the introduction of HFIP groups also contributes to adjusting device conductivity, enhancing signal conversion function. To put the DMMP sensor into potential practical application, the obvious sensing response to different DMMP concentrations in soil was confirmed, and a wireless detection system was built to realize real-time monitoring of DMMP concentrations in the surroundings. Overall, this study provides a facile and practical solution for improving the sensing performance of room-temperature sensors based on the hydrogen bond theory.

Pyruvate participates in diverse metabolic pathways in the body and is normally present in human blood at 40–120 μM, with concentrations outside this range associated with various diseases. Therefore, accurate and stable blood pyruvate level tests are necessary for effective disease detection. However, traditional analytical techniques require complicated instrumentation and are time consuming and expensive, prompting researchers to develop improved methods based on biosensors and bioassays. Here, we designed a highly stable bioelectrochemical pyruvate sensor affixed to a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). To maximize biosensor stability, 0.1 U of lactate dehydrogenase was affixed to the GCE using a sol-gel process, resulting in generation of Gel/LDH/GCE. Next, 2.0 mg/mL AuNPs-rGO was added to enhance current signal strength, resulting in generation of the bioelectrochemical sensor Gel/AuNPs-rGO/LDH/GCE. AuNPs-rGO synthesized in advance was verified as correct using transmission electron microscopy and UV–Vis, Fourier-transform infrared and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Pyruvate detection conducted via differential pulse voltammetry in phosphate buffer (pH 7.4, 100 mM) at 37 °C for 1–4500 μM pyruvate provided detection sensitivity as high as 254.54 μA/mM/cm 2 . The reproducibility, regenerability and storage stability were analyzed with the relative standard deviation of 5 bioeletrochemical sensors detection was 4.60% and biosensor accuracy after 9 cycles was 92%, with accuracy remaining at 86% after 7 days. In the presence of D-glucose, citric acid , dopamine, uric acid and ascorbic acid , the Gel/AuNPs-rGO/LDH/GCE sensor exhibited excellent stability, high anti-interference ability and better performance than conventional spectroscopic methods for detection of pyruvate in artificial serum.

Integrating g-C 3 N 4 with narrow-band semiconductor to construct a Z-scheme structured heterojunction has been regarded as a common strategy to improve the photocatalytic performance of g-C 3 N 4 . However, limited catalytic activity increment is achieved due to the contradiction of expanding the light absorption scope of traditional photo-oxidation semiconductors (PS II) and preserving their valance band oxidative abilities. Herein, to extend the light absorption range of g-C 3 N 4 based Z-scheme photocatalyst to the whole solar spectra while without losing the high oxidative ability of this system, we select the heavy doped W 18 O 49 as PS II and provide a facile in situ hydrothermal method to elaborately fabricate an rGO decorated W 18 O 49 @g-C 3 N 4 (r-CNW) Z-scheme photocatalyst. The prepared r-CNW-2 (with optimal W 18 O 49 to g-C 3 N 4 weight ratio of 1:2) exhibits improved photocatalytic performance with H 2 O 2 generation rates of 71, 58.5 and 6.3 μmol g −1 h −1 obtained under the simulated solar light, visible light (>400 nm) and NIR light (>800 nm) irradiation, respectively, which is 1.3 and 2 times higher than those of the g-C 3 N 4 counterparts (54, 29 μmol g −1 h −1 and even not detected).such outstanding performance of r-CNW-2 could be associated with the broader light absorption, fast charge separation, and rapid redox reactions. Moreover, the r-CNW-2 also displays an excellent E-coli inactivation activity, comparable to most g-C 3 N 4 -based photocatalysts. Our work gives a new insight through trading off light absorption and redox ability to fabricate efficient Z-scheme photocatalyst for photocatalytic H 2 O 2 generation and environmental remediation.

In the study, the reduced graphene oxide/graphitic Bi 12 O 17 Cl 2 –TiO 2 heterojunctions sheet membrane(RGO/PDA/Bi 12 O 17 Cl 2 –TiO 2 ) was fabricated by the dopamine modification and assembling the RGO/PDA/Bi 12 O 17 Cl 2 –TiO 2 composites on the surface of commercial CA(cellulose acetate) membrane to degrade methylene blue (MB) and p-chlorophenol (4-CP) to harmless products. These membrane materials were comprehensively characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectra (DRS). The results showed that RGO/PDA/Bi 12 O 17 Cl 2 –TiO 2 nanofiber membrane exhibited extremely high degradation performance with a good distribution of RGO/PDA/Bi 12 O 17 Cl 2 –TiO 2 on the CA nanofiber membrane surface. Besides, the complete photodegradation of 100 mL MB (15 mg L −1 ) solution and 100 mL 4-CP (15 mg L −1 ) solution with artificial visible-light was achieved after 100 min and 160 min, respectively. The RGO/PDA/Bi 12 O 17 Cl 2 –TiO 2 -CA composite membrane revealed the ability of continuous and simultaneous flow-through separation of oil/water emulsion and degradation of soluble organic dye under visible-light irradiation in a short time. Moreover, the nanofiber membranes exhibited excellent stability and reusability for MB-containing oil–water mixed emulsion separation has great potential to be applied in industrial application.
