RESUMEN
Recent investigations were shifted this trend toward exploring the biomedical applicability of CDs, relevant to chronic diseases. Herein, a systematic approach is demonstrated for studying the effect of variation in the surface passivation of CDs for tuning its optical character and biological performance. Alginate and pectin were successfully clustered oxygen-surface passivated CDs, while, chitin was used to nucleate nitrogen-surface passivated CDs. Pectin-treated with base (4.1 ± 1.8 nm) and chitin-treated acid (3.5 ± 1.7 nm) were ingrained the smallest O-surface passivated CDs and N-surface passivated CDs, respectively. However, N-surface passivated CDs were shown with the highest optical activity. CDs colloids prepared from alginate, pectin & chitin, resulted in reduction of tumor cell viability percentage to be 80.8%, 74.0% & 69.0% respectively. O-surface passivated CDs nucleated from alginate showed the highest anti-proliferative effects. Moreover, O-surface passivated CDs (from alginate) showed the supremacy in inhibition of inflammation, while, increasing of its concentration ten times resulted in significant increment in inhibition percent to be 28% & 42%, using 1 µg/mL & 10 µg/mL, respectively. In summarization, it could be decided that, compared to N-surface passivated CDs (from chitin), O-surface passivated CDs (from alginate) showed excellency in application as a concurrent anti-inflammatory/antitumor drug, to be applied as a potential therapeutical reagent for treatment of inflammation, in production of vaccines, immune-therapeutics, and immune-suppressive drugs.
RESUMEN
Nanofibers are investigated to be superiorly applicable in different purposes such as drug delivery systems, air filters, wound dressing, water filters, and tissue engineering. Herein, polyacrylonitrile (PAN) is thermally treated for autocatalytic cyclization, to give optically active PAN-nanopolymer, which is subsequently applicable for preparation of nanofibers through solution blow spinning. Whereas, solution blow spinning is identified as a process for production of nanofibers characterized with high porosity and large surface area from a minimum amounts of polymer solution. The as-prepared nanofibers were shown with excellent photoluminescence and microbicide performance. According to rheological properties, to obtain spinnable PAN-nanopolymer, PAN (12.5-15% wt/vol, honey like solution, 678-834 mPa s), thermal treatment for 2-4 h must be performed, whereas, time prolongation resulted in PAN-nanopolymer gelling or rubbering. Size distribution of PAN-nanopolymer (12.5% wt/vol) is estimated (68.8 ± 22.2 nm), to reflect its compatibility for the production of carbon nanofibers with size distribution of 300-400 nm. Spectral mapping data for the photoluminescent emission showed that, PAN-nanopolymer were exhibited with two intense peaks at 498 nm and 545 nm, to affirm their superiority for production of fluorescent nanofibers. The microbial reduction % was estimated for carbon nanofibers prepared from PAN-nanopolymer (12.5% wt/vol) to be 61.5%, 71.4% and 81.9%, against S. aureus, E. coli and C. albicans, respectively. So, the prepared florescent carbon nanofibers can be potentially applicable in anti-infective therapy.

Chlorophyll-a as pigments, exist in the green organelles for plants that act in photosynthesis. Different studies were considered with demonstration of an effective separation technique of Chlorophyll-a without decomposition; however, the reported methods were disadvantageous with expensiveness and low quantum yield. The current work uniquely represents an investigative method for the separation of Chlorophyll-a from spinach extract using cellulosic hybrids based on ZIF-8 @cellulosic fibers (Zn-zeolitic imidazolate frameworks@cellulosic fibers) as a cost effective and recyclable absorbents. To obtain hybrids, ZIF-8 was in-situ prepared over the cellulosic fibers (bamboo, modal and cotton). The untreated and treated fibers were well characterized via FTIR, SEM, EDX, XRD, in order to approve the successive impregnation of ZIF-8. Whereas, the microscopic images showed that, microcrystalline ZIF-8 rods with length of 1.3-4.4 µm were grown over the cellulosic fibers. The obtained hybrids and the untreated fibers were exploited in the separation of Chlorophyll-a via the adsorption/desorption process. The chlorophyll-adsorption was followed Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second order model. The Langmuir maximum capacities of Chlorophyll-a onto hybrids were followed the order of ZIF-8@cotton (583.6 mg/g) > ZIF-8@modal (561.3 mg/g) > ZIF-8@bamboo (528.7 mg/g). After incorporation of ZIF-8, the maximum adsorption capacities of cellulosic fibers were enhanced by 1.4-1.9 times. Adsorption of chlorophyll onto the applied hybrids was lowered by 27-28%, after five repetitive washing cycles. The data summarized that; chlorophyll was effectively separated by the synthesized ZIF-8@cellulosic fibers hybrids, whereas, the prepared hybrids showed good reusability for application on wider scaled purposes.

Polymer dots (PDs) ingrained from biopolymers are characterized by their biocompatibility & non-toxicity to be superiorly applicable for biomedicines. The point of novelty in the current study is to focus on the effect of Maillard reaction for conjugation of chitosan with glucose to enhance the affinity of chitosan as a biological resource of PDs. Chitosan-glucose conjugate was firstly prepared by Maillard reaction. PDs were nucleated from chitosan (C1 acidic, 10.6 nm & C2 basic, 11.4 nm) and chitosan-glucose conjugate (C3 acidic, 6.8 nm & C4 basic, 5.7 nm). The affinity of chitosan versus chitosan-glucose conjugate as molecular precursors for PDs as antiviral and anticancer laborers was studied. The synthesized PDs were tested against lung cancer (NSCLC, A549) and the estimated IC50 was 282.4 & 165.4 µg/mL for PDs (C3 & C4) ingrained from chitosan-glucose conjugate. The antiviral action of PDs against Coronavirus (229E) was estimated and the obtained IC50 for C3 & C4 was 43.6 and 19.3 mg/mL, respectively. PDs ingrained from chitosan-glucose conjugate showed higher anticancer and antiviral activities compared to that clustered from chitosan. Consequently, the modification of chitosan via Maillard reaction enhanced the biological affinity of the obtained PDs to be effectively applicable as antitumor and antiviral laborers.

In this study, new stimuli - responsive hybrid hydrogels were achieved via succinylated cellulose nanocrystals (Su-CNC). The innovation was concerned with the inclusion of Su-CNC, at different degree of substitution (DS), into hydrogel network to render it pH and thermo-responsive characters through free radical polymerization reaction with poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAm). The prepared hydrogel was also examined for the in vitro release of Famotidine at different pH values. As clearly evident from the results, all the hydrogels prepared with different DS of Su-CNC, which were nominated as Su-CNC / PNIPAm (1-3), showed a high response to temperature change since their swelling behavior and hydrophilicity were decreased at 35 °C and upwards. This led to the more hydrophobicity character and thus the hydrogel shrinkage occurred. On the other hand, at pH 6, the hydrogels exhibited a significant Equilibrium Swelling Ratio (ESR) attaining 18.1, 17.3 and 16.8 (g/g) for Su-CNC / PNIPAm (1-3), respectively. However, Su-CNC / PNIPAm 2 hydrogel showed a significant response to the pH change from 8 to 2 which was advised to be selected as a potential pH responsive hydrogel for the in vitro Famotidine release.

Nano-fertilizers were ascribed to be significantly advantageous with minimizing the negative effects of requiring excessive contents in the soil and reducing the number of times for fertilization. Herein, the superior affinity of carbon quantum dots (CQDs) anchored within metal organic framework (Cu-BTC) matrix was investigated for the first time as a fertilizer for sunflower. CQDs were nucleated from alkali-hydrolyzed carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) via the hydrothermal technique. The synthesized CQDs (6.8 ± 3.7 nm) were anchored within Cu-BTC (crystalline rod-like structure) matrix, to produce CQDs@Cu-BTC composite. The obtained CQDs and CQDs@Cu-BTC were applied as nutrients for the sunflower plant. The chlorophyll a and carotenoids contents were 0.465 & 0.497 and 0.350 & 0.364 mg/g after treatment with CQDs & CQDs@Cu-BTC, respectively. The shoot length of sunflower sample was increased after feeding with CQDs and CQDs@Cu-BTC to be 38.7 and 46.5 cm, respectively. The obtained results confirmed that, the synthesized CQDs@Cu-BTC showed superiority as nutrient material via enhancing the growth and physiological properties of sunflower and consequently could be used as fertilizer for plants instead of the commercial nutrient.
RESUMEN
Povidone-iodine (PI) is a common antiseptic reagent which is used for skin infections and wound healing. The control release of PI is quite important to heal the deep and intense wounds. Herein, the preparation of biodegradable pectin@carboxymethyl pullulan (Pe@CMP) hydrogel was carried out and applied for controllable release of PI. CMP was synthesized by interaction of monochloroacetic acid with pullulan at different ratios. The Pe@CMP hydrogel was then prepared by crosslinking of pectin with CMP in presence of glutaraldehyde as cross linker. After carboxymethylation, COOH contents were enlarged to be 24.2-51.2 mmol/kg and degree of substitution was 0.44-0.93. The rheological properties of Pe@CMP hydrogel were enlarged by increment of pectin ratio. Swelling ratio in water (16.0-18.0%) was higher than that of artificial sweat (11.7-13.2%). Pe@CMP hydrogel containing 20% pectin, exhibited the lowest release and 57.7% from PI was released within 360 min. The biological activity of the released PI was monitored to be highly efficient. The kinetic of release was fitted well to the first ordered reaction and Higuchi models. The mechanism of release was explained by the swelling of hydrogel. The networked structure of hydrogel was opened by swelling and PI was released from the outer pores followed by inner pores, achieving the controllable release.

RESUMEN
Pharmaceutical products are used tremendously worldwide and subsequently released into wastewater even at very low concentration caused serious environmental problem due to their high activity. Therefore, the present work focuses on remarkable removal of paracetamol as one from the most used pharmaceutical intermediates, by using porous film based on cellulose acetate@metal organic framework (CA@Ti-MIL-NH2). The film was designed to achieve extreme removal of paracetamol by action of both of adsorption and degradation. Metal organic frame work was directly synthesized and inserted within the pre-prepared porous CA film to obtain porous CA@Ti-MIL-NH2 film. The synthesized films were applied in adsorption and photo-degradation of paracetamol separately and together. Due to the photocatalytic activity of Ti-MIL-NH2, the photo-degradation of paracetamol in visible-light was much effective and considerably high degradation of paracetamol was observed (k1 = 760.0 m-1) comparing to the adsorption (k1 = 160.0 m-1). The overall removal of paracetamol was significantly enlarged from 82.7 mg/g for CA film to 519.1 mg/g for porous CA@Ti-MIL-NH2 film. The used film exhibited quite good reusability and the removal of paracetamol was lowered from 96% to 85% after 5 regeneration cycles. Results of total organic carbon confirmed that paracetamol was fully degraded to CO2 and water.

Herein, CQDs were prepared with size of 2.1 nm from both of carrageenan and pullulan. CQDs nucleated from pullulan showed higher anti-proliferative effects against cancer cells, while, treatment with 100 µg/mL of CQDs colloids originated from pullulan and carrageenan separately resulted in diminishing of cancer cell viability percent to be 42.1 & 58.7%, respectively. Plaque reduction assay was also affirmed that, 2.5 µg/L of both of pullulan and carrageenan based CQDs exhibited viral inhibition with percent of 44.3& 59.5%, respectively. As a conclusion, pullulan showed seniority over carrageenan in nucleation of CQDs with higher anticancer activities. While, estimation of antiviral performance of the prepared CQDs confirmed the priority of carrageenan compared to pullulan in preparation of CQDs as antiviral laborer.

The calculated band gap was diminished from 2.53 eV to 2.38-1.99 eV after doping of metal (Ag & Pd) within MIL-125-NH2@CA film. Compared to MIL-125-NH2@CA; metal (Ag & Pd)@MIL-125-NH2@CA film showed a considerably higher photocatalytic reduction of nitro-aromatics in visible light. After 60 min, 80.6-93.5 % of 2-nitrophenol was photoreduced when metal (Ag & Pd)@MIL-125-NH2@CA film was used. After 5 recycles, the photoreduction percentage of 2-nitrophenol was lowered to 54.4-62.0. The produced metal@MIL-125-NH2@CA films showed an effective photocatalytic reduction of nitro-aromatics in the visible light, reflecting their promising performance in preparation of intermediates useful in many industrial products.
RESUMEN
Obedience to the aspects of green chemistry and due to its high catalytic potency, ecofriendly synthesis of palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs) was performed using pectin versus acacia gum as polysaccharides. The viscous solution of alkali solubilized polysaccharides acted superiorly in stabilization of MNPs by decreasing their Brownian motions and sequentially decreased their collision and coagulation. Production of PdNPs preliminary was confirmed via UV-visible spectra. Zetasizer and transmission electron microscopy data, the particle size of PdNPs were prepared by pectin (27.9 nm) is larger than that by acacia gum (5.3 nm). XRD and FT-IR data affirmed the redox reaction between biopolymers and metal ions to produce PdNPs. PdNPs synthesized by acacia gum were characterized by higher surface area (19.54 m2/g) compared to that prepared by pectin (3.67 m2/g). Additionally, PdNPs synthesized by acacia gum were exhibited by fastest rate of dye discoloration, resulting in complete reductive discoloration of dye after only 5 min and t1/2 was estimated to be 1.70 min, while, k1 was 408.8 × 10-3 min-1. The presented green technique could be successively applicable for synthesis of size regulated catalytically active PdNPs to be employable in various industrial purposes.

Carbon quantum dots are currently investigated to act as safe/potent alternatives for metal-based nanostructures to play the role of probes for environmental applications owing to their low toxicity, low cost, chemical inertness, biocompatibility and outstanding optical properties. The synthesis of biocide/fluorescent metal marker carbon quantum dots with hydrophilic character was performed via a quite simple and green technique. The natural biopolymer that was used in this study for the synthesis of carbon quantum dots is fragmented under strong alkaline conditions. Afterwards, under hydrothermal conditions, re-polymerization, aromatization and subsequent oxidation, the carbonic nanostructures were grown and clustered. Dialysis of the so-produced carbonic nanostructures was carried out to obtain highly purified/mono-dispersed carbon quantum dots with a size distribution of 1.5-6.5 nm. The fluorescence intensity of the synthesized carbon quantum dots under hydrothermal conditions for 3 h was affected by dialysis, however, the fluorescence intensity was significantly increased ca. 20 times. The synthesized carbon quantum dots were exploited as fluorescent markers in the detection of Zn2+ and Hg2+. The prepared carbon quantum dots also exhibited excellent antimicrobial potency against Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli and Candida albicans. The detected minimal inhibitory concentration for the dialyzed CQDs towards the tested pathogens was 350-450 µL mL-1. The presented approach is a simple and green technique for the scaled-up synthesis of biocide/fluorescent marker carbon quantum dots instead of metal-based nanostructures for environmental applications, without using toxic chemicals or organic solvents.
RESUMEN
Nanostructures have great potential in catalysis and their compositions may cause some interferences in the reactivity. Therefore, the present study focuses on comparison between three metallic nanoparticle-based Ag, Au, and Pd as nano-catalyst in reduction of aromatic pollutants. To neglect any interpenetration in their catalytic reactivity, the metallic nanoparticles were prepared via a consistent and reproducible one-step method with alkali-activated dextran. Interestingly, small sized/spherical AgNPs, AuNPs, and PdNPs were successively prepared with particle size of 3.4, 8.3, and 17.1 nm, respectively. The catalytic performance of the synthesized NPs was estimated for the reduction of p-nitroaniline and methyl red dye as different aromatic pollutants. Regardless of the particle size, there was a strong relation between catalytic action and the type of metal which followed the order of PdNP > AuNPs > AgNPs. Graphical Abstract.

Multifunctional polymers were commonly ascribed as intelligent materials due to the presence of different functional groups on the polymeric skeleton which causes the high sensitivity to the interchanging of physicochemical conditions. Herein, under different temperatures, monitoring the pH response of lignin as intelligent nano-engineer (reducer and stabilizer) for synthesis of size and shape regulated silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) & palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs) is systematically studied. The regulation of the particle size and stability of NPs were remarkably affected by acidity and basicity of the reaction medium at which they were prepared. TEM and zetasizer data showed that, highly size and shape regulated AgNPs & AuNPs is successively produced under acidic conditions with particle size of 13.8 and 5.7 nm, respectively. While basic conditions is more advisable in case of PdNPs to be produced with particle size of 4.5 nm. Catalytic performance of biphasic NPs in reductive discoloration of azo dye (reactive yellow dye 145) was followed the order of PdNPs > AuNPs > AgNPs. The half time for discoloration of dye with basic prepared NPs was dramatically decreased from 21.87 min for AgNPs and 18.34 for AuNPs to 1.45 min for PdNPs.
