A series of different crystalline phases BiVO4 photocatalysts (tetragonal, monoclinic, and monoclinic/tetragonal heterophase) have been prepared by a coprecipitation molten salt method. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) results show that an interface intimate contact is formed in heterophase monoclinic phase mainly on the surface nanoparticles. Surface photovoltage (SPV) transient (TPV) techniques are used to further investigate transfer process photoinduced charge...
A simple procedure at room temperature using non-toxic and cost-effective precursors has been developed to prepare magnetic Prussian blue/graphene oxide (PB/Fe3O4/GO) nanocomposites for the removal of radioactive cesium in water. Taking advantage combined benefits GO PB nanoparticles, PB/Fe3O4/GO exhibit excellent efficiency (over 90% 50 ppm Cs+) rapid separation from an aqueous solution by external field. In addition, adsorption behavior these adsorbents fits well with Langmuir isotherm...
Bi2WO6/ZnWO4 composite photocatalysts have been successfully synthesized by a facile hydrothermal process. The catalysts were characterized powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microcopy (TEM), and UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectrum (DRS). results show that Bi2WO6 nanoparticles grow on the primary ZnWO4 nanorods. composites better UV light photocatalytic activities compared to single Furthermore, photoinduced charge transfer properties of investigated means transient...
Chemotherapy using cytotoxic agents, such as paclitaxel (PTX), is one of the most effective treatments for advanced ovarian cancer. However, due to nonspecific targeting drug and presence toxic solvents required dissolving PTX prior injection, there are several serious side effects associated with this treatment. In study, we explored self-assembled lipid-based nanoparticles carriers, which were able improve its antitumour efficacy against The also functionalized epidermal growth factor...
Understanding the factors that control protein structure and stability at oil-water interface continues to be a major focus optimize formulation of protein-stabilized emulsions. In this study, combination synchrotron radiation circular dichroism spectroscopy, front-face fluorescence dual polarization interferometry (DPI) was used characterize conformation geometric β-lactoglobulin (β-Lg) upon adsorption two interfaces: hexadecane-water tricaprylin-water interface. The results show that, both...
Lyotropic liquid crystalline nanoparticle dispersions are of interest as delivery vectors for biomedicine. Aqueous liposomes, cubosomes, and hexosomes commonly stabilized by nonionic amphiphilic block copolymers to prevent flocculation phase separation. Pluronic stabilizers such F127 used; however, there is increasing in using chemically reactive enhanced functionalization specificity therapeutic applications. This study has explored the ability...
Hydroxyapatite (HAp)-coated metallic implants are known for their excellent bioactivity and osteoconductivity. However, infections associated with the microstructure of HAp coatings may lead to implant failures as well increased morbidity mortality. This work addresses concerns about by developing novel composite gallium liquid metal (GaLM) using atmospheric plasma spray (APS) coating technique. Five weight percent Ga was mixed into a commercially supplied powder an orbital shaker; then,...
Ionisable amino-lipid is a key component in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), which plays crucial role the encapsulation of RNA molecules, allowing efficient cellular uptake and then releasing from acidic endosomes. Herein, we present direct evidence for remarkable structural transitions, with decreasing membrane curvature, including inverse micellar, to hexagonal, two distinct bicontinuous cubic, finally lamellar phase mainstream COVID-19 vaccine ionisable ALC-0315 SM-102 lipids, occurring upon...
Abstract The blood‐brain barrier (BBB) poses a significant challenge in delivering therapeutic agents for brain diseases due to its high selectivity against foreign substances. This limitation greatly hampers the effectiveness of conventional chemotherapeutic drugs treating cancers. In response, lipid‐based nanoparticles (LNPs) have emerged as promising approach, offering opportunities targeted drug delivery by conjugating targeting ligands onto their surface. review provides comprehensive...
