Abstract
In this study, pineapple crown (PC) feedstock residues were utilized as a potential precursor toward producing activated carbon (PCAC) via pyrolysis induced with ZnCl2 activation. The PCAC has a surface area (457.8 m2/g) and a mesoporous structure with an average pore diameter of 3.35 nm, according to the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller estimate. The removal of cationic dye (Fuchsin basic; FB) was used for investigating the adsorption parameters of PCAC. The optimization of significant adsorption variables (A: PCAC dose (0.02-0.1 g/100 mL); B: pH (4-10); C: time (10-90); and D: initial FB concentration (10-50 mg/L) was conducted using the Box-Behnken design (BBD). The pseudo-second-order (PSO) model characterized the dye adsorption kinetic profile, whereas the Freundlich model reflected the equilibrium adsorption profile. The maximum adsorption capacity (qmax) of PCAC for FB dye was determined to be 171.5 mg/g. Numerous factors contribute to the FB dye adsorption mechanism onto the surface of PCAC, which include electrostatic attraction, H-bonding, pore diffusion, and π-π stacking. This study illustrates the utilization of PC biomass feedstock for the fabrication of PCAC and its successful application in wastewater remediation.

Abstract
Mercury [Hg(II)] contamination is an indefatigable global hazard that causes severe permanent damage to human health. Extensive research has been carried out to produce mercury adsorbents; however, they still face certain challenges, limiting their upscaling. Herein, we report the synthesis of a novel amine-impregnated inverse vulcanized copolymer for effective mercury removal. Poly(S-MA) was prepared using sulfur and methacrylic acid employing the inverse vulcanization method, followed by functionalization. The polyethylenimine (PEI) was impregnated on poly(S-MA) to increase the adsorption active sites. The adsorbent was then characterized byusing Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). FTIR spectroscopy confirmed the formation of the copolymer, and successful impregnation of PEI and SEM revealed the composite porous morphology of the copolymer. Amine-impregnated copolymer [amine@poly(S-MA)] outperformed poly(S-MA) in mercury as it showed 20% superior performance with 44.7 mg/g of mercury adsorption capacity. The adsorption data best fit the pseudo-second-order, indicating that chemisorption is the most effective mechanism, in this case, indicating the involvement of NH2 in mercury removal. The adsorption is mainly a monolayer on a homogeneous surface as indicated by the 0.76 value of Redlich-Peterson exponent (g), which describes the adsorption nature advent from the R2 value of 0.99.

Abstract
Groundwater is the most valuable natural source in our earth's planet, being contaminated in various regions worldwide. Despite considerable research, there are scarce data regarding arsenic (As) levels in groundwater and its build-up in biological samples in Pakistan. The current investigation analyzed As contamination in four tehsils of District Khanewal (Kabirwala tehsil, Jahaniyan tehsil, Mian Channu tehsil, and Khanewal tehsil). For that, 123 groundwater samples, 19 animal milk samples, 20 human nails, and 20 human hair samples were collected from the study area. Arsenic concentration in groundwater was up to 51.8 µg/L with an average value of 7.2 µg/L. About 28 water samples (23%) had As contents > WHO limit and 38 samples (31%) > DEP-NJ limit. Low levels of As were detected in biological samples. Average As levels were 23 µg/L in the milk samples and 298 µg/kg in human hair. Arsenic contents were not detected in nail samples, except in one sample from Kabirwala tehsil. The maximum values of hazard quotient and cancer risk in District Khanewal were 4.9 and 0.0022, respectively. It is anticipated that long-term use of As-containing water may led to poisoning of humans in the study area, especially in Kabirwala. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor As contamination in the groundwater of Kabirwala tehsil to reduce the potential health hazards.

Abstract
Green and efficient removal of polluted materials are essential for the sustainability of a clean and green environment. Nanomaterials, particularly cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), are abundant in nature and can be extracted from various sources, including cotton, rice, wheat, and plants. CNCs are renewable biomass materials with a high concentration of polar functional groups. This study used succinic anhydride to modify the surface of native cellulose nanocrystals (NCNCs). Succinic anhydride has been frequently used in adhesives and sealant chemicals for a long time, and here, it is evaluated for dye removal performance. The morphology and modification of CNCs studied using FTIR, TGA & DTG, XRD, SEM, AFM, and TEM. The ability of modified cellulose nanocrystals (MCNCs) to adsorb cationic golden yellow dye and methylene blue dye was investigated. The MCNCs exhibited high adsorption affinity for the two different cationic dyes. The maximum adsorption efficiency of NCNCs and MCNCs towards the cationic dye was 0.009 and 0.156 wt%. The investigation for adhesive properties is based on the strength and toughness of MCNCs. MCNCs demonstrated improved tensile strength (2350 MPa) and modulus (13.9 MPa) using E-51 epoxy system and a curing agent compared to 3 wt% composites. This research lays the groundwork for environmentally friendly fabrication and consumption in the industrial sector.

Abstract
Background/Aim As recommended by WHO, breastfeeding is the best choice and safe for infants. The formula for infants plays an imperative role in the infant's diet and remains an excellent alternative for breast milk. The milk formula for most infants has been increasingly changed with various compositions to create a similar breast milk production. This study aims to analyze and determine the chemical composition of a few milk formulas available in the Saudi Arabian market. Materials and Methods Thirty-five milk formula samples for infants of different age categories were collected from Riyadh City and analyzed for protein, fat, carbohydrates, lactose, total solids, total non-fat solids, calcium, iron, and zinc. Among batches collected, there were 15 branded products suitable for those of age 0-6 months, five for those of age 0-12 months, four for those of age 1-3 years, and 11 for those of age 6-12 months. Results For infants, the milk formula sample parameters investigated varied significantly (p ≤ 0.05). A significantly high protein value was 22.72% for a brand for infants with an age of 0-6 months, and the lowest was 11.31% for a brand for those of age 0-12 months. Fat content was high in a brand (26.92%) for infants of age 0-6 months and low in a brand (17.31%) for those aged 6-12 months. The high value of carbohydrates was found in a brand (60.64%) for those of age 0-6 months and a low one (44.97%) in a brand for those of age 0-12 months. The total energy, lactose, total solids, total non-fat solids, and minerals (calcium, iron, zinc) were significantly (p ≤ 0.05) varied between milk formulas at the same age. Conclusion There were significant variations between milk formulas of the same ages. According to age groups, some nutrients were not identical to the reference values for children's food.

Abstract
Novel Sm doped Cr2O3 decorated MWCNTs nanocomposite photocatalyst was successfully prepared by a facile hydrothermal method for metoprolol (MET) degradation. A heterogeneous photo -Fenton like system was formed with the addition of H2O2 for ultrasonic irradiation (US), visible light irradiation (Vis) and dual irradiation (US/Vis) systems. The intrinsic characteristics of Sm doped Cr2O3 decorated MWCNTs nanocomposite was comprehensively performed using state-of-art characterization tools. Optical studies confirmed that Sm doping shifted the absorbance of Cr2O3 towards the visible-light region, further enhanced by MWCNTs incorporation. In this study, degradation of metoprolol (MET) was investigated in the presence of Cr2O3 nanoparticles, Sm doped Cr2O3 and Sm doped Cr2O3 decorated MWCNTs nanocomposites using sonocatalysis and photocatalysis and simultaneously. Several different experimental parameters, including irradiation time, H2O2 concentration, catalyst amount, initial concentration, and pH value, were optimized. The remarkably enhanced sonophotocatalytic activity of Sm doped Cr2O3 decorated MWCNTs could be attributed to the more formation of reactive radicals and the excellent electronical property of Sm doping and MWCNTs. The rate constant of degradation using sonophotocatalytic system was even higher than the sum of rates of individual systems due to its synergistic performance based on the kinetic data. A plausible mechanism for the degradation of MET over Sm-Cr2O3/MWCNTs is also demonstrated by using active species scavenger studies and EPR spectroscopy. Our findings imply that (•OH), (h+) and (•O2-) were the reactive species responsible for the degradation of MET based on the special three-way Fenton-like mechanism and the dissociation of H2O2. The durability and stability of the nanocomposite were also performed, and the obtained results revealed that the catalysts can endure the harsh sonophotocatalytic conditions even after fifth cycles. Mineralization experiments using the optimized parameters were evaluated as well. The kinetics and the reaction mechanism with the possible reasons for the synergistic effect were presented. Identification of degraded intermediates also investigated.

Abstract
This work presents a comparative study of the physicochemical properties of chars derived by three thermochemical pathways, namely: hydrothermal carbonization, HTC (at 180, 200 and 220 °C), pyrolysis, PY, (at 500, 600 and 700 °C) and microwave assisted pyrolysis, MW (at 300, 450 and 600 W). The mass yield of HTC samples showed a decrease (78.7 to 26.7%) as the HTC temperature increased from 180 to 220 °C. A similar decreasing trend in the mass yield was also observed after PY (28.45 to 26.67%) and MW (56.45 to 22.44%) of the food waste mixture from 500 to 700 °C and 300 to 600 W, respectively. The calorific value analysis shows that the best among the chars prepared by three different heating methods may be ranked according to the decreasing value of the heating value as: PY500, MW300, and HTC180. Similarly, a decreasing trend in H/C values was observed as: PY500 (0.887), MW300 (0.306), and HTC180 (0.013). The scanning electron microscope (SEM) analyses revealed that the structure of the three chars was distinct due to the different temperature gradients provided by the thermochemical processes. The results clearly show that the suitable temperature for the HTC and PY of food waste was 180 °C and 500 °C, respectively, while the suitable power for the MW of food waste was 300 W.

Abstract
The construction of direct Z-scheme heterojunctions with high photocatalytic degradation ability is a theme of importance in both environmental and materials sciences, but still retains many unresolved challenges. In this article, we report the construction of Z-scheme CuInS2/Bi2MoO6 heterostructure by in-situ hydrothermal reactions, demonstrating superior photocatalytic activity towards the degradation of tetracycline under visible light, compared to their individual components: that is to say 8 and 2.5 times those of CuInS2 and Bi2MoO6, respectively. The photocatalytic performance of CuInS2/Bi2MoO6 heterostructure is mainly ascribed to the effective charge transfer at the interface through the construction of a direct Z-scheme heterojunction, combined with a ternary sulfide semiconductor absorbing light in the useful region of the solar spectrum. This photocatalyst provides new insights on the fundamental aspects governing the mechanisms responsible for multicomponent photodegradation, while constituting already a promising candidate for practical environmental applications.

Abstract
Graphitic carbon nitride with suitably incorporated functionality has attracted much interest in the areas of environmental treatments, clean energy, sensing, and photocatalyst. However, the role of graphitic nanoporous carbon nitride (NCN) matrix from single carbon-nitrogen (C-N) source, aminoguanidine HCl as a precursor and close intimate contact between silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) dispersed in NCN and bacteria has rarely been demonstrated. Herein, we demonstrate a nanostructure of Ag NPs-incorporated NCN sample (NCN@Ag) as an antibacterial agent against both wild type and the multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli (E. coli) pathogens. In-situ ultrasonication method was used to ensure the homogeneous mixing of the Ag NPs and a single C-N precursor at the molecular level so that pore size (PS) (9.17 nm) of SBA15 silica could be impregnated with ultrasonicated Ag NPs and a single C-N precursor. The porous structure, compositions, and structural information of the final nanocomposites were confirmed by using various analytical techniques such as XRD, TEM, BET surface area (SA) measurements, XPS, and UV. Then, the antibacterial activities of the NCN and NCN@Ag against both wild type and the multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli (E. coli) pathogens were also carried out and results from the in-vitro studies have shown the excellent bactericidal effect of the highly dispersed Ag NPs containing NCN@Ag sample against both E. coli strains. Results have confirmed that the antibacterial activity of the NCN@Ag sample is found to be higher than pure NCN, indicating that in-situ incorporated Ag NPs in NCN matrix have played significant role for enhancing antibacterial activities. Surprisingly, in the presence of NCN@Ag, the reduction in minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was higher (64-fold reduction) compared to its susceptible wild type (32-fold reduction) E. coli. These results indicate the potential application of NCN@Ag for inactivating infectious bacterial pathogens implicated in multidrug resistance.

Abstract
Cobalt-doped TiO2 nanoparticles were prepared and characterized by FT-IR, TEM, SEM, and XRD. The surface morphology was sphere-shaped with ~ 26.46 nm of the size of the nanoparticles. Ninety percent atenolol photodegradation was obtained with 15 mg/L concentration, 40 min stirring time, 2 pH, 2.0 g/L dosage of nanoparticles, 200.0 nm irradiation UV wavelength, and hydrogen peroxide amount 2.0 mL/L at 30 °C temp. Atenolol photodegradation conformed the first-order kinetics with a mechanism comprising atenolol sorption on the doped TiO2 nanoparticles and its degradation in UV irradiation. Hole (h+) and electron (e-) pairs are produced by doped TiO2 nanoparticles, creating hydroxyl free radicals and superoxide oxygen anions. These species break down atenolol.

Abstract
Biomass, the feedstock for biocrude and ultimately renewable diesel is a low energy density feedstock. The transport of this feedstock over long distance has been proven to be a major burden on the commercialisation of biorefining. Therefore, it has been generally accepted that biomass should be upgraded to biocrude (a relatively high energy density liquid) in close proximity to the biomass sources. The biocrude liquid would then be transported to a biorefinery. Biocrude contains large amounts of oxygen (generally up to 38 wt%) that is removed from the crude in the refining process. In this study, we have synthesised a range of spinel oxide based catalysts to remove oxygen from the biocrude during the catalytic fast pyrolysis. The activity of spinel oxide (MgB2O4 where B = Fe, Al, Cr, Ga, La, Y, In) catalysts were screened for the pyrolysis reaction. While all the tested spinel oxides deoxygenated the pyrolysis vapour, MgCr2O4 was found to be effective in terms of oxygen removal efficiency relative to the quantity of bio oil produced.

Abstract
Electrochemical water oxidation is one of the thrust areas of research today in solving energy and environmental issues. The morphological control in the synthesis of nanomaterials plays a crucial role in designing efficient electrocatalyst. In general, various synthetic parameters can direct the morphology of nanomaterials and often this is the main driving force for the electrocatalyst in tuning the rate of the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) for the electrochemical water-splitting. Here, a facile and cost-effective synthesis of spinel cobalt oxides (Co3O4) via a one-pot hydrothermal pathway with tunable morphology has been demonstrated. Different kinds of morphologies have been obtained by systematically varying the reaction time i.e. nanospheres, hexagon and nanocubes. Their catalytic activity has been explored towards OER in 1.0 M alkaline KOH solution. The catalyst Co3O4-24 h nanoparticles synthesized in 24 h reaction time shows the lowest overpotential (η) value of 296 mV at 10 mA cm-2 current density, in comparison to that of other as-prepared catalysts i.e. Co3O4-pH9 (311 mV), Co3O4-12 h (337 mV), and Co3O4-6 h (342 mV) with reference to commercially available IrO2 (415 mV). Moreover, Co3O4-24 h sample shows the outstanding electrochemical stability up to 25 h time.

Abstract
In this study, we report a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-active array film, which is based on regenerated cellulose hydrogels and gold nanorods (AuNRs), by combining a silicon rubber mask with a vacuum filtration method. This strategy enables the direct AuNR array formation on hydrogel surface with a precisely controlled number density. Moreover, the control of interparticle nanogap has been realized by the spatial deformation of hydrogels. A decrease in gaps between AuNRs deposited on hydrogels can result in SERS enhancement because 3D porous hydrogel structures turned into 2D closely packed hydrogel films during drying. In our experiments, SERS sensor arrays show excellent SERS activity to detect rhodamine 6 G and thiram down to 10 pM and 100 fM with competitive enhancement factors of 3.9 × 108 and 9.5 × 109, respectively. Importantly, the resultant SERS-active arrays with nine sensor units can efficiently detect nine different analytes on a single substrates at a time. Moreover, we demonstrate that physical bending has little effect on the SERS activity of flexible AuNR array hydrogel films, which indicates the high reproducibility of SERS measurement. This SERS array film has great potential to simultaneously detect multiple hazards for the practical application of SERS analysis.

Abstract
In the current study, the Asinex and ChEBI databases were virtually screened for the identification of potential Lyn protein inhibitors. Therefore, a multi-steps molecular docking study was carried out using the VSW utility tool embedded in Maestro user interface of the Schrödinger suite. On initial screening, molecules having a higher XP-docking score and binding free energy compared to Staurosporin were considered for further assessment. Based on in silico pharmacokinetic analysis and a common-feature pharmacophore mapping model developed from the Staurosporin, four molecules were proposed as promising Lyn inhibitors. The binding interactions of all proposed Lyn inhibitors revealed strong ligand efficiency in terms of energy score obtained in molecular modelling analyses. Furthermore, the dynamic behaviour of each molecule in association with the Lyn protein-bound state was assessed through an all-atoms molecular dynamics (MD) simulation study. MD simulation analyses were confirmed with notable intermolecular interactions and consistent stability for the Lyn protein-ligand complexes throughout the simulation. High negative binding free energy of identified four compounds calculated through MM-PBSA approach demonstrated a strong binding affinity towards the Lyn protein. Hence, the proposed compounds might be taken forward as potential next-generation Lyn kinase inhibitors for managing numerous Lyn associated diseases or health complications after experimental validation.

Abstract
Solid waste conversion to value-added products is a stepping stone towards sustainable environment. Herein, sesame oil cake (SOC), an oil industry waste was utilized as a precursor to develop hydrochar (HC) samples by varying reaction temperature (150-250 °C) and time span (2-8 h), chemically treated with 10% H2O2 to optimize a sample with maximum yield and Pb(II) adsorption. Highest yield (29.2 %) and Pb(II) (24.57 mg/g at Co: 15 mg/L) adsorption was observed on SOCHC@200 °C/6 h, magnetized (mSOCHC@200 °C/6 h) for comparative study. XRD displayed highly crystalline SOCHC@200 °C/6 h and amorphous mSOCHC@200 °C/6 h, both having a characteristic cellulose peak at 14.9°. mSOCHC@200 °C/6 h displayed superparamagnetic behavior with 11.2 emu/g saturation magnetization. IR spectra confirmed the development of samples rich in oxygen containing functionalities; an additional peak for iron oxides appeared at 586 cm-1 in mSOCHC@200°C/6 h spectrum. Four major peaks at 531.9, 399.9, 348.2 and 284.7 eV, assigned to O 1s, N 1s, Ca 2p and C 1s, respectively were observed during XPS analyses. An additional peak at 710.3 eV, ascribed to Fe 2p was observed in mSOCHC@200C/6 h XPS spectrum, while a peak at 143.2 eV for Pb 4f appeared in spectra of both Pb(II) saturated samples. pH dependent (maximum at ∼6.7), exothermic Pb(II) adsorption was found. About 50-70% (at Co: 25 mg/L) adsorption on both SOCHC@200 °C/6 h and mSOCHC@200 °C/6 h was accomplished in a minute, attaining equilibrium in 180 and 240 min, respectively. Error functions and superimposed qe, exp. and qe, cal. values supported Langmuir isotherm model applicability, with respective qm values of 304.9 and 361.7 mg/g at 25 °C for SOCHC@200 °C/6 h and mSOCHC@200 °C/6 h. Kinetic data was fitted to PSO model. Highest (between 92.2 and 88.9 %) amount of Pb(II) from SOCHC@200 °C/6 h and mSOCHC@200 °C/6 h was eluted by 0.01 M HCl.

Abstract
The isoreticular principle has been applied to construct two copper metal-organic framework (MOF) analogues with different porosities for the adsorptive capture of CO2 from N2 and CH4 at 1 atm and 298 K. By using a 4-substituted isophthalate linker with a bulky nitro group, the microporous MOF [Cu(BDC-NO2)(DMF)] (UTSA-93 or CuBDC-NO2; H2BDC-NO2 = 4-nitroisophthalic acid and DMF = N,N'-dimethylformamide) has been synthesized with mot topology, showing a compact pore structure with a size of 6.0 × 7.0 Å2 in contrast to that of 6.9 × 8.5 Å2 in the prototypical MOF with a bromo group. The optimized pore structure allows the nitro-functionalized MOF to capture CO2 with a higher capacity of about 2.40 mmol g-1 under ambient conditions, in contrast to 1.08 mmol g-1 in the bromo-functionalized analogue. The adsorption selectivity of CuBDC-NO2-a for a CO2/N2 (15:85) mixture (28) under ambient conditions is also higher than that of the bromo-substituted prototype (25) and comparable with those of several MOF materials. Moreover, dynamic breakthrough experiments of the nitro-functionalized MOF have been performed to illustrate its separation potential toward a CO2/N2 mixture.

Abstract
Heavy metal microextraction and determination in daily used water is accurately achieved by applying nano-clay as an extractor. The conditions for adsorption/elution of Cu(ii), Cd(ii) and Pb(ii) were investigated by adjusting the pH of samples, sample volume and the type of eluent. The nano-clay showed superior efficiency for microextraction of Cu(ii), Cd(ii) and Pb(ii) at pH 2 using 2 mL of nitric acid (1 M) as the eluent. The microextraction procedure showed high recovery% by changing the sample volume from 15 mL to 70 mL. The preconcentration factor was found to be 37.5. The LOD and LOQ were 1.8, 1.3, and 1.9 μg L-1 and 5.3, 3.9, and 5.7 μg L-1 for Cu(ii), Cd(ii) and Pb(ii) respectively. The addition/recovery from different water samples showed recovery% in the range 88-105 which confirms the efficiency and the accuracy of the developed solid phase microextraction using nano-clay for enrichment of Cu(ii), Cd(ii) and Pb(ii).

Abstract
The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) plays a key role in the water splitting process and a high energy conversion efficiency is essential for the definitive advance of hydrogen-based technologies. Unfortunately, the green and sustainable development of electrocatalysts for water oxidation is nowadays a real challenge. Herein, a successful mechanochemical method is proposed for the synthesis of a novel hemoglobin (Hb) modified Co3O4/g-C3N4 composite nanomaterial. The controlled incorporation of cobalt entities as well as Hb functionalization, without affecting the g-C3N4 nanoarchitecture, was evaluated using different physicochemical techniques, such as X-ray diffraction, N2-physisorption, scanning electron microscopy, UV-visible spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The beneficial effect of the resulting ternary bioconjugate together with the influence of the temperature and light irradiation was investigated by electrochemical analysis. At 60 °C and under light exposition, this electrocatalyst requires an overpotential of 370 mV to deliver a current density of 10 mA·cm-2, showing a Tafel slope of 66 mV·dec-1 and outstanding long-term stability for 600 OER cycles. This work paves a way for the controlled fabrication of multidimensional and multifunctional bio-electrocatalysts.

Abstract
Nitroaromatic and nitroamine compounds such as 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) are teratogenic, cytotoxic, and may cause cellular mutations in humans, animals, plants, and microorganisms. Microbial-based bioremediation technologies have been shown to offer several advantages against the cellular toxicity of nitro-organic compounds. Thus, the current study was designed to evaluate the ability of Trichoderma viride to degrade nitrogenous explosives, such as TNT, by microbiological assay and Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis. In this study, T. viride fungus was shown to have the ability to decompose, and TNT explosives were used at doses of 50 and 100 ppm on the respective growth media as a nitrogenous source needed for normal growth. The GC/MS analysis confirmed the biodegradable efficiency of TNT, whereas the initial retention peak of the TNT compounds disappeared, and another two peaks appeared at the retention times of 9.31 and 13.14 min. Mass spectrum analysis identified 5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-furancarboxaldehyde with the molecular formula C6H6O3 and a molecular weight of 126 g·mol-1 as the major compound, and 4-propyl benzaldehyde with a formula of C10H12O and a molecular weight of 148 g mol-1 as the minor compound, both resulting from the biodegradation of TNT by T. viride. In conclusion, T. viride could be used in microbial-based bioremediation technologies as a biological agent to eradicate the toxicity of the TNT explosive. In addition, future molecular-based studies should be conducted to clearly identify the enzymes and the corresponding genes that give T. viride the ability to degrade and remediate TNT explosives. This could help in the eradication of soils contaminated with explosives or other toxic biohazards.

Abstract
A primary strategy to combat antimicrobial resistance is the identification of novel therapeutic targets and anti-infectives with alternative mechanisms of action. The inhibition of the metalloenzymes carbonic anhydrases (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1) from pathogens (bacteria, fungi, and protozoa) was shown to produce an impairment of the microorganism growth and virulence. As phosphonamidates have been recently validated as human α-CA inhibitors (CAIs) and no phosphorus-based zinc-binding group have been assessed to date against β-class CAs, herein we report an inhibition study with this class of compounds against β-CAs from pathogenic bacteria, fungi, and protozoa. Our data suggest that phosphonamidates are among the CAIs with the best selectivity for β-class over human isozymes, making them interesting leads for the development of new anti-infectives.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In this era of science, cancer is a black dot on the face of humankind. Consequently, the search of promising anticancer agents continues. AIMS Here we designed and synthesized new N-substituted rhodanines (RD1-7), evaluated their multispectroscopic interaction with calf thymus DNA, in silico and anticancer studies against MDA-MB-231cancer cell line. METHODS By MTT assay rhodanine RD1 was found to be the most potent with IC50 value of 72.61 μM. In addition, DNA binding studies (UV-vis and fluorescence) revealed strong binding affinity of RD1-7 with DNA (Kb in the range of 1.5-7.4 × 105 M-1). Moreover, molecular docking study, experimental DNA binding and anticancer studies are all well agreed to each other. RESULTS It was observed that H-bonding and hydrophobic attractions were responsible for stability of DNAcompound adducts. Besides, the reported rhodanines (RD1-7) were found as minor groove binders of DNA. Concisely, RD1-7 indicated promising pharmacological properties and hence, shows auspicious future for the development of novel anticancer agents. CONCLUSION The reported rhodanines showed excellent anticancer properties. Therefore, the described rhodanines may be used as potential anticancer agents in the future.

Abstract
This work reports the successful preparation of nanoporous iron oxide/carbon composites through the in-situ growth of Prussian blue (PB) nanoparticles on the surface of graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets. The applied thermal treatment allows the conversion of PB nanoparticles into iron oxide (Fe2O3) nanoparticles. The resulting iron oxide/carbon composite exhibits higher specific capacitance at all scan rates than pure GO and Fe2O3 electrodes due to the synergistic contribution of electric double-layer capacitance from GO and pseudocapacitance from Fe2O3. Notably, even at a high current density of 20 A g−1, the iron oxide/carbon composite still shows a high capacitance retention of 51%, indicating that the hybrid structure provides a highly accessible path for diffusion of electrolyte ions.

Abstract
Herein, we demonstrate the bottom-up synthesis of 2D cyano-bridged Cu-Ni coordination polymer (CP) nanoflakes through a controlled crystallization process and their conversion to Cu-Ni mixed oxides via a thermal treatment in air. The chelating effect of citrate anions effectively prevents the rapid coordination reaction between Cu2+ and K₂[Ni(CN)₄], resulting in the deceleration of the crystallization process of CPs. Specifically, with addition of trisodium citrate dehydrate, the number of nuclei formed at the early stage of the reaction is decreased. Less nuclei undergo a crystal growth by interacting with [Ni(CN)₄]2-, leading to the formation of larger Cu-Ni CP nanoflakes. Following heat treatment in air, the -CN- groups present within the CP nanoflakes are removed and nanoporous Cu-Ni mixed oxide nanoflakes are generated. When tested as an electrode material for supercapacitors using a three-electrode system, the optimum Cu-Ni mixed oxide sample shows a maximum specific capacitance of 158 F g-1 at a current density of 1 A g-1. It is expected that the proposed method will be useful for the preparation of other types of 2D and 3D CPs as precursors for the creation of various nanoporous metal oxides.

Abstract
In the present study, Fe3O4@AMCA-MIL-53(Al) nanocomposite was utilized for the adsorptive removal of highly toxic MB and MG dyes from aqueous environment. The batch adsorption tests were performed at different contact time, pH, Fe3O4@AMCA-MIL-53(Al) dose, initial concentration of dyes and temperature. The maximum adsorption capacity of MB and MG dyes onto of Fe3O4@AMCA-MIL-53(Al) using Langmuir equation was 1.02 and 0.90 m mol/g, respectively. The isotherm and kinetic studies revealed that adsorption data were well fitted to Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-first-order kinetics models. Various thermodynamic parameters were also calculated and interpreted. The positive and negative values of ΔH° and ΔG° indicated that the adsorption was endothermic and spontaneous, respectively. The adsorptive binding of MB and MG on Fe3O4@AMCA-MIL53(Al) nanocomposite was directed by carboxylate and amide groups through electrostatic interaction, π-π interaction and hydrogen bonding. The desorption of both dyes from Fe3O4@AMCA-MIL-53(Al) was also performed using mixed solution of 0.01 M HCl/ethanol. Thus, we conclude that the Fe3O4@AMCA-MIL-53(Al) was an outstanding material for the removal of dyes from aqueous environment.

Abstract
Herein, Cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) intercalated and branched polyhydroxystyrene (BPS) functionalized montmorillonite (MMT) nano-composite (BPS-CTAB-MMT) was developed, characterized, and its potential as an adsorbent was tested in sequestering cationic dyes viz. rhodamine B (RB), crystal violet (CV), and methylene blue (MB) from aqueous environment. N2 adsorption/desorption isotherm showed mesoporous BPS-CTAB-MMT surface with a BET surface area of 273.8 m2/g. The appearance of sharp spikes at 2855 and 2925 cm-1 (associated with symmetric and asymmetric tensions of C - H bonds) in infra-red spectrum of BPS-CTAB-MMT indicates successful intercalation of MMT with CTAB and functionalization with BPS. The observed crystallite size of BPS-CTAB-MMT was 66 nm. Comparatively greater weight loss for BPS-CTAB-MMT (11%) than MMT (9%) was observed during thermogravimetric analysis. The adsorption of dyes on BPS-CTAB-MMT was pH dependent with maximum uptake was observed in the pH range: 5-6. For initial dyes concentration (Co) range: 50-150 mg/L, the observed equilibration time for CV was 300 min, whereas for RB and MB the equilibration time varied between 300 and 360 min. Modeling investigations revealed the applicability of Sips isotherm and pseudo-second-order (PSO) kinetic models to dyes adsorption data. Sips maximum adsorption capacity (qs) values for RB, CV, and MB at 55 °C were 476.5, 438.7, and 432.7 mg/g, respectively. The adsorption of dyes on BPS-CTAB-MMT was thermodynamically favorable. Desorption studies showed 42.1% RB and 41.9% CV recovery with 0.1 M NaOH and CH3COCH3, respectively, while only traces of MB were recovered with tested eluents.

Abstract
A simple, sensitive and efficient fluorescence method has been established for the quantitative analysis of bilirubin. The fluorometric determination method was based on the kinetic quenching of ruthenium(II) fluorescence. The quenching effect may be due to the complexation reaction of bilirubin with ruthenium(II). Therefore, the effects of ruthenium concentrations and different surfactants have been studied. Under the optimized experimental parameters, the fluorescence intensity decreased proportionally with the bilirubin concentration and linearity was established in the range of 3.3 × 10-7 to 3.0 × 10-4 M bilirubin. The detection limit calculated from the calibration graph was found to be 5.2 × 10-8 M. The relative standard deviation (RSD) of 10 consecutive measurements of 8.0 × 10-6 M bilirubin was 3.0%, while the recoveries of bilirubin in both human serum and urine samples were obtained in the range 94.0-99.5%. The interference study shows that the developed fluorescence based technique is fast, easy to carry out and shows negligible interference. The developed technique was successfully applied for the analysis of bilirubin in human urine and serum samples. All the experimental results and quality parameters confirmed the sensitivity and reproducibility of the proposed technique for bilirubin determination in human urine and serum samples.

Abstract
Facile synthesis of micellar “nano” indole heterocyclic anti-cancer compounds is described. The synthesized compounds (11–23) were characterized by UV-VIS, 1H NMR, FT-IR and mass spectroscopy. The binding energies of DNA–compound adducts varied from −20.08 to −23.85 kJ mol−1, and they were stabilized by hydrophobic interactions and H-bonding. The synthesized compounds enter into minor grooves of DNA during adduct formation. The DNA binding constant of compounds 11–23 was 1.00 to 2.00 × 105 M−1. The drug-loading efficiency and drug-loading content in their micellar forms were recorded. Compounds 11, 12, 14 and 19 at a micellar concentration of 670 μL mL−1 displayed excellent anticancer activities against the HepG2/C3A line (25–50%). The potency of nano anticancer drugs was predicted by drug likeness using Lipinski's “rule of five”. Taken together, compounds 11–23 could be used to treat cancers. Facile synthesis of micellar “nano” indole heterocyclic anti-cancer compounds is described.![]()

Abstract
Enantio-selective molecular dynamics of (±)-o,p-DDT uptake and degradation in water-sediment system is described. Both uptake and degradation processes of (-)-o,p-DDT were slightly higher than (+)-o,p-DDT enantiomer. The optimized parameters for uptake were 7.0μgL-1 concentration of o,p-DDT, 60min contact time, 5.0pH, 6.0gL-1 amount of reverine sediment and 25°C temperature. The maximum degradation of both (-)- and (+)-o,p-DDT was obtained with 16 days, 0.4μgL-1 concentration of o,p-DDT, pH 7 and 35°C temperature. Both uptake and degraded process followed first order rate reaction. Thermodynamic parameters indicated exothermic nature of uptake and degradation processes. Both uptake and degradation were slightly higher for (-)-enantiomer in comparison to (+)-enantiomer of o,p-DDT. It was concluded that both uptake and degradation processes are responsible for the removal of o,p-DDT from nature but uptake plays a crucial role. The percentage degradations of (-)- and (+)-o,p-DDT were 30.1 and 29.5, respectively. This study may be useful to manage o,p-DDT contamination of our earth's ecosystem.

Abstract
With the aim of a reliable biosensing exhibiting enhanced sensitivity and selectivity, this study demonstrates a dopamine (DA) sensor composed of conductive poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) nanotubes (PEDOT NTs) conformally coated with porphyrin-based metal-organic framework nanocrystals (MOF-525). The MOF-525 serves as an electrocatalytic surface, while the PEDOT NTs act as a charge collector to rapidly transport the electron from MOF nanocrystals. Bundles of these particles form a conductive interpenetrating network film that together: (i) improves charge transport pathways between the MOF-525 regions and (ii) increases the electrochemical active sites of the film. The electrocatalytic response is measured by cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry techniques, where the linear concentration range of DA detection is estimated to be 2 × 10-6-270 × 10-6 m and the detection limit is estimated to be 0.04 × 10-6 m with high selectivity toward DA. Additionally, a real-time determination of DA released from living rat pheochromocytoma cells is realized. The combination of MOF5-25 and PEDOT NTs creates a new generation of porous electrodes for highly efficient electrochemical biosensing.

Abstract
A crucial issue in microRNA (miRNA) detection is the lack of sensitive method capable of detecting the low levels of miRNA in RNA samples. Herein, we present a sensitive and specific method for the electrocatalytic detection of miR-107 using gold-loaded nanoporous superparamagnetic iron oxide nanocubes (Au-NPFe2O3NC). The target miRNA was directly adsorbed onto the gold surfaces of Au-NPFe2O3NC via gold-RNA affinity interaction. The electrocatalytic activity of Au-NPFe2O3NC was then used for the reduction of ruthenium hexaammine(III) chloride (RuHex, [Ru(NH3)6]3+) bound with target miRNA. The catalytic signal was further amplified by using the ferri/ferrocyanide [Fe(CN)6]3-/4- system. These multiple signal enhancement steps enable our assay to achieve the detection limit of 100aM which is several orders of magnitudes better than most of the conventional miRNA sensors. The method was also successfully applied to detect miR-107 from cancer cell lines and a panel of tissue samples derived from patients with oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma with excellent reproducibility (% RSD = < 5%, for n = 3) and high specificity. The analytical accuracy of the method was validated with a standard RT-qPCR method. We believe that our method has the high translational potential for screening miRNAs in clinical samples.

Abstract
Highly ordered mesoporous resol-type phenolic resin and the corresponding mesoporous carbon materials were synthesized by using poly(ethylene oxide-b-caprolactone) (PEO-b-PCL) diblock copolymer as a soft template. The self-assembled mesoporous phenolic resin was found to form only in a specific resol concentration range of 40-70 wt % due to an intriguing balance of hydrogen-bonding interactions in the resol/PEO-b-PCL mixtures. Furthermore, morphological transitions of the mesostructures from disordered to gyroid to cylindrical and finally to disordered micelle structure were observed with increasing resol concentration. By calcination under nitrogen atmosphere at 800 °C, the bicontinuous mesostructured gyroid phenolic resin could be converted to mesoporous carbon with large pore size without collapse of the original mesostructure. Furthermore, post-treatment of the mesoporous gyroid phenolic resin with melamine gave rise to N-doped mesoporous carbon with unique electronic properties for realizing high CO2 adsorption capacity (6.72 mmol g-1 at 0 °C).

Abstract
Chemotherapy of bladder cancer has limited efficacy because of the short retention time of drugs in the bladder during therapy. In this research, nanoparticles (NPs) with a new core/shell/corona nanostructure have been synthesized, consisting of iron oxide (Fe3O4) as the core to providing magnetic properties, drug (doxorubicin) loaded calcium phosphate (CaP) as the shell for pH-responsive release, and arginylglycylaspartic acid (RGD)-containing peptide functionalized alginate as the corona for cell targeting (with the composite denoted as RGD-Fe3O4/CaP/Alg NPs). We have optimized the reaction conditions to obtain RGD-Fe3O4/CaP/Alg NPs with high biocompatibility and suitable particle size, surface functionality, and drug loading/release behavior. The results indicate that the RGD-Fe3O4/CaP/Alg NPs exhibit enhanced chemotherapy efficacy toward T24 bladder cancer cells, owing to successful magnetic guidance, pH-responsive release, and improved cellular uptake, which give these NPs great potential as therapeutic agents for future in vivo drug delivery systems.
