Detection of BaP in seawater based on multi-walled carbon nanotubes composites immunosenor.

ABSTRACT: Benzo(a)pyrene, as the main polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon pollutant in marine oil spill pollution, has negative effects on marine ecology and human health. A facile and sensitive method of rapid benzo(a)pyrene detection in seawater is essential for marine conservation. In this paper, a novel immunosensor is fabricated using a multi-walled carbon nanotubes-chitosan composite loaded with benzo(a)pyrene antibody. This immunosensor is based on a biosensing assay mechanism that uses multi-walled carbon nanotubes-chitosan composites as conductive mediators to enhance electron transfer kinetics. Then, potassium ferricyanide was used as an electrochemical probe to produce an electrochemical signal for the voltammetric behavior investigation of the immune response by differential pulse voltammetry. Under optimal experimental conditions, the peak current change was inversely proportional to the benzo(a)pyrene concentration in the range of 0.5 ng⋅ml^-1 and 80 ng⋅ml^-1 with a detection limit of 0.27 ng⋅ml^-1. The immunosensor was successfully applied to assay BaP in seawater, and the recovery was between 96.6 and 100%, which exhibited a novel, sensitive and interference-resistant analytical method for real-time water environment monitoring. The results demonstrate that the proposed immunosensor has a great potential for application in the monitoring of seawater.

Project description:The studies focusing on magnesium oxychloride cement (MOC) composites have recently become fairly widespread because of MOC's excellent mechanical properties and environmental sustainability. Numerous fillers, admixtures and nano-dopants were studied in order to improve the overall performance of MOC-based derivatives. Some of them exhibited specific flaws, such as a tendency to aggregate, increase in porosity, aeration of the composite matrix, depreciation in water resistance and mechanical strength, etc. In this manuscript, MOC-based composites doped by multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are designed and tested. In order to modify the final properties of composites, diatomite was admixed as partial substitution of MgO, which was used in the composition of the researched material in excess, i.e., the majority of MgO constituted part of MOC and the rest served as fine filler. The composites were subjected to the broad experimental campaign that covered SEM (scanning electron microscopy), EDS (energy dispersive spectroscopy), HR-TEM (high-resolution transmission electron microscopy), XRD (X-ray diffraction), OM (optical microscopy) and STA-MS (simultaneous thermal analysis with mass spectroscopy). For 28 days hardened samples, macrostructural and microstructural parameters, mechanical properties, hygric and thermal characteristics were experimentally assessed. The incorporation of MWCNTs and diatomite resulted in the significant enhancement of composites' compactness, mechanical strength and stiffness and reduction in water absorption and rate of water imbibition. The thermal properties of the enriched MOC composites yielded interesting values and provided information for future modification of thermal performance of MOC composites with respect to their specific use in practice, e.g., in passive moderation of indoor climate. The combination of MWCNTs and diatomite represents a valuable modification of the MOC matrix and can be further exploited in the design and development of advanced building materials and components.

Project description:Herein, we reported a wearable photodetector based on hybrid nanocomposites, such as carbon materials and biocompatible semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs), exhibiting excellent photoresponsivity and superior durability. Currently, semiconductor nanocrystal quantum dots (QDs) containing heavy metals, such as lead or cadmium (in the form of lead sulfide (PbS) and cadmium sulfide (CdS)), are known to display excellent detection properties and are thus widely employed in the fabrication of photodetectors. However, the toxic properties of these heavy metals are well known. Hence, in spite of their enormous potential, the QDs based on these heavy metals are not generally preferred in biological or biomedical applications. These limitations, though, can be overcome by the judicious choice of alternate materials such as silver sulfide (Ag2S) NCs, which are biocompatible and exhibit multiple excitons in Ag2S QDs. The other chosen component is a carbon-based material, such as the multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT), which is preferred primarily due to its strong and superior mechanical durability. In this study, a hybrid nanocomposite film was synthesized from Ag2S NCs and MWCNTs by a simple one-step fabrication process using ultrasonic irradiation. Additionally, this method did not involve any chemical functionalization or post-processing step. The size of Ag2S NCs in the hybrid film was controlled by the irradiation time and the power of the ultrasonic radiation. Further, appropriate composition ratio of the hybrid composite was optimized to balance the photo-response and mechanical durability of the photodetector. Thus, using this synthetic method, an excellent photoresponsivity property of the device was demonstrated for a near-infrared (NIR) light source with various light wavelengths. Furthermore, no visible change in photoresponsivity was observed for bending motions up to 105 cycles and for a range of angles (0-60°). This novel method provides an eco-friendly alternative to existing functional composites containing toxic heavy metals and is a promising approach for the development of wearable optoelectronic devices.
