A simple colorimetric method has been developed for the detection of lead (Pb2+) in water samples using lipoic acid-functionalized gold nanoparticles. The lipoic acid-functionalized gold nanoparticles are induced to aggregate in the presence of the Pb2+ which results in a change in the color of the functionalized gold nanoparticles. The change in color and the amount of Pb2+ producing the change could be monitored via UV-visible spectrophotometry. A good correlation coefficient of 0.9927 was obtained for the calibration curve of the colorimetric method. The method was applied in the determination of Pb2+ in water samples and the results compared to that of measurement carried out with Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy.

利用硫辛酸功能化金纳米粒子开发了一种检测水样中铅(Pb2+)的简单比色法。硫辛酸官能化金纳米粒子在 Pb2+ 的存在下被诱导聚集,从而导致官能化金纳米粒子的颜色发生变化。可通过紫外-可见分光光度法监测颜色的变化和产生这种变化的 Pb2+ 的量。比色法校准曲线的相关系数为 0.9927。该方法被用于测定水样中的 Pb2+,其结果与用原子吸收光谱法测定的结果进行了比较。

Protein sensing in a nanofluidic environment dramatically shortens immunoassay time-to-result through the combined action of efficient mass transfer and short diffusion distances. Here, we report on a fully automated point-of-care in vitro diagnostic platform based on disposable capsule containing nanofluidic sensors in which fluorescent immunoassays are performed. Performances of the system were established with three model assays for ferritin, immunoglobulin E (IgE) and pancreatic stone protein (PSP). The described system has the typical high capture efficiency of nano-confined spaces combined with forced-flow, which induce a constant maximal concentration gradient on the sensor. Remarkably, analytes are detected in zeptomole quantities from a drop of blood. Dose-response curves show that high precision and accuracy are achieved in the clinically relevant assay ranges. Moreover, accuracy of the system is excellent agreement with laboratory reference method, as illustrated in a method comparison with total IgE as a model. While several academic proof-of-concepts have already described the possibility to exploit the properties of fluids at the nanoscale to develop immunoassay, the transition of these models to a product fulfilling requirements for use at the point-of-care in terms of operability, affordability, reliability and analytic performances remains a challenging endeavor. This study demonstrates that nanofluidic-based immunoassays can efficiently quantify protein biomarkers in the femto- and picomolar range within ultra-short assay time, high precision and accuracy on a closed, small, easyto- operate platform.
在纳米流体环境中,蛋白质传感通过高效的传质和短的扩散距离的共同作用,大大缩短了免疫分析的时间。在这里,我们报告了一个全自动的点护理体外诊断平台,该平台基于含有纳米流体传感器的一次性胶囊,在其中进行荧光免疫测定。通过铁蛋白、免疫球蛋白E (IgE)和胰石蛋白(PSP)三种模型测定来建立系统的性能。所描述的系统具有典型的高捕获效率的纳米密闭空间与强制流动相结合,这使得传感器上的最大浓度梯度恒定。值得注意的是,从一滴血中可以检测到齐托莫里的分析物。剂量-反应曲线表明,在临床相关的测定范围内,该方法具有较高的精密度和准确性。此外,该系统的准确性与实验室参考方法非常一致,如与总IgE作为模型的方法比较所示。虽然一些学术概念验证已经描述了利用纳米级流体特性开发免疫测定的可能性,但从可操作性、可负担性、可靠性和分析性能等方面来看,将这些模型转变为满足护理点使用要求的产品仍然是一项具有挑战性的工作。本研究表明,基于纳米流体的免疫分析方法可以在超短的分析时间内,在一个封闭、小型、易于操作的平台上,有效地定量毫微和皮摩尔范围内的蛋白质生物标志物。

Background: The present study aim to investigate on the characterization of green synthesized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and to evaluate whether this herbal nanoparticle can increase the efficiency of herb for alteration of hematological indices against acetaminophen induced toxicity in male Wistar rats. Methods: Bark extract of Terminalia arjuna was used for the green synthesis of AuNPs and then characterization of the nanoparticles were done. Then experiment was conducted on 24 healthy male Wistar rats. The animals were divided into four groups, each group having six rats. Group-1: Control; Group- 2: acetaminophen treated (500 mg / kg) for 14 days; Group-3: Co-administration of acetaminophen (500 mg/kg/day) along with Terminalia arjuna bark extract (175 μg/kg/day) for 14 days; Group-4: Co-administration acetaminophen (500 mg/kg/day) along with of green synthesised AuNPs (175 μg/kg/day) for 14 days. Hematological indices were measured using standard hematological techniques. Results: The green synthesized AuNPs were characterized by UV-visible spectroscopy, FESEM, HRTEM, EDX, FTIR, XRD, DLS analysis. UV-visible spectroscopy showed SPR band at 524 nm. FESEM, HRTEM and XRD analyses revealed that green synthesized AuNPs were spherical shaped, crystalline in nature with size ranging between 20 and 40 nm. Hematological analysis revealed that there was significant decrease in Red Blood Cells (RBCs), Hemoglobin (HB), Hematocrit (HCT)%, Lymphocyte percentage and Platelet Distribution Width (PDW)%, with acetaminophen treatment but White Blood Cells(WBCs), Red blood cell Distribution Width (RDW)% and Platelets (PLTs) significantly increases with acetaminophen administration. Then after co-administration with green synthesized AuNPs along with acetaminophen showed effective significant recovery in the hematological alterations. Conclusions: Overall the results highlighted the promising effect of green synthesized AuNPs against acetaminophen induced hematological alterations in male Wistar rats.

Major aim of this research study is to comprehend the interaction of soft nanoparticle-based vesicles with model lung surfactant monolayer. Vertebrate lung surfactant plays a pivotal role in gaseous exchange plus breathing. As pulmonary lung surfactant is the one which directly comes in contact to inhaled air so it also acts as defensive agent against air-borne pollutants (any foreign particle). In this enquiry, several different types of lipids namely 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, 1,2-Dimitrystoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylcholine, 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glyceero-3-phosphocholine are used as lipid monolayer and vesicles in different combinations while using Langmuir-Blodgett trough. The different lipids are treated with chloroform and buffer solution to make vesicles and then extruded. Nanoparticles present in vesicles interact with lipid monolayer when processed in Langmuir-Blodgett trough and mimics the behavior of natural pulmonary lung surfactant system. In Quartz Crystal with gold mounted on it as thin layer, different combinations of lipid bilayer and vesicles are used from the same list of lipids. The results obtained from this investigation are quite informative in depicting the interaction of soft nanoparticle based vesicles with lung surfactant system, also this work would pave the way to explore still more on interaction of soft nanoparticles based vesicles with lung surfactant, as very little work is done on soft nanoparticles. This novelty of this work is to plan to develop some alternatives of lung surfactant because we cannot perform the experiment directly in living souls as some of these has lethal effects.
本研究的主要目的是了解基于软纳米颗粒的囊泡与模型肺表面活性物质单层的相互作用。脊椎动物肺表面活性剂在气体交换和呼吸中起着关键作用。由于肺表面活性剂是直接与吸入空气接触的物质,因此它也对空气中的污染物(任何外来颗粒)起防御作用。在这项研究中,几种不同类型的脂质,即1,2-二棕榈酰-sn-甘油-3-磷酸胆碱,1,2-二二酰基-sn-甘油-3-磷酸胆碱,1-棕榈酰-2-油基-sn-甘油-3-磷酸胆碱,在Langmuir-Blodgett槽中以不同的组合作为脂质单层和囊泡。用氯仿和缓冲溶液处理不同的脂质,使其形成囊泡,然后挤出。在Langmuir-Blodgett槽中,存在于囊泡中的纳米颗粒与脂质单层相互作用,并模仿天然肺表面活性物质系统的行为。在石英晶体与金安装在它作为薄层,脂质双分子层和囊泡的不同组合是从同一列表的脂质使用。这项研究的结果对于描述基于软纳米颗粒的囊泡与肺表面活性剂系统的相互作用具有重要的信息,并且这项工作将为进一步探索基于软纳米颗粒的囊泡与肺表面活性剂的相互作用铺平道路,因为对软纳米颗粒的研究很少。这项工作的新颖之处在于计划开发一些肺表面活性剂的替代品,因为我们不能直接在活体灵魂中进行实验,因为其中一些具有致命的影响。

As a crucial element in construction, tunnels, roads, pavements, and more, concrete has become one of the most important materials in the world. At the same time, air pollution, particularly in crowded cities, is increasing, mainly due to industrial activity and transportation. Therefore, one possible approach to fighting pollution is the use of “smart” construction materials, particularly the incorporation of photocatalytically active nano- and micro structures into concrete. Incorporating titanium dioxide (TiO2) in roads and pavements could degrade and, as a result, reduce various pollutants under ultraviolet radiation. The TiO2-infused concrete would also maintain its optical characteristics for far longer than traditional concrete mix. This research presents an evaluation of nano- and micro-TiO2-incorporated concretion degradation of organic molecules, as assessed by the concrete’s ability to degrade Rhodamine B dye. We tested concrete blocks with different concentrations of nano- and micro-TiO2 in their structure, exposing them to sunlight for various periods of time (24,48,72, and 96 hrs). The percentage of nano- and micro-TiO2 used in this research was 3,6,9,12, and 15% of the cement composition. The results showed good degradation of the Rhodamine B dye by both nano- and micro-TiO2, demonstrating the potential of this approach towards smarted construction materials for environmental applications.
混凝土作为建筑、隧道、道路、路面等的关键元素,已成为世界上最重要的材料之一。与此同时,空气污染,特别是在拥挤的城市,正在增加,主要是由于工业活动和运输。因此,对抗污染的一种可能的方法是使用“智能”建筑材料,特别是将光催化活性纳米和微观结构结合到混凝土中。在道路和人行道中加入二氧化钛(TiO2)可以降解,从而减少紫外线辐射下的各种污染物。注入二氧化钛的混凝土也将比传统的混凝土混合物保持更长的光学特性。本研究通过混凝土降解罗丹明B染料的能力,对纳米和微二氧化钛掺入混凝土降解有机分子进行了评估。我们测试了结构中含有不同浓度纳米和微tio2的混凝土块,并将其暴露在阳光下不同时间段(24、48、72和96小时)。本研究中使用的纳米和微型tio2的比例分别为水泥成分的3%、6%、9%、12%和15%。结果表明,纳米和微tio2都能很好地降解罗丹明B染料,证明了这种方法在环境应用智能建筑材料方面的潜力。
