RESUMO
The pandemic respiratory disease COVID-19 has spread over the globe within a small span of time. Generally, there are two important points are being highlighted and considered towards the successful diagnosis and treatment process. The first point includes the reduction of the rate of infections and the next one is the decrease of the death rate. The major threat to public health globally progresses due to the absence of effective medication and widely accepted immunization for the COVID-19. Whereas, understanding of host susceptibility, clinical features, adaptation of COVID-19 to new environments, asymptomatic infection is difficult and challenging. Therefore, a rapid and an exact determination of pathogenic viruses play an important role in deciding treatments and preventing pandemic to save the people's lives. It is urgent to fix a standardized diagnostic approach for detecting the COVID-19. Here, this systematic review describes all the current approaches using for screening and diagnosing the COVID-19 infectious patient. The renaissance in pathogen due to host adaptability and new region, facing creates several obstacles in diagnosis, drug, and vaccine development process. The study shows that adaptation of accurate and affordable diagnostic tools based on candidate biomarkers using sensor and digital medicine technology can deliver effective diagnosis services at the mass level. Better prospects of public health management rely on diagnosis with high specificity and cost-effective manner along with multidisciplinary research, specific policy, and technology adaptation. The proposed healthcare model with defined road map represents effective prognosis system.
RESUMO
Bismuth oxide decorated graphene oxide (Bi2O3@GO) nanocomposites were successfully synthesized by sonochemical method followed by hydrothermal treatment. The structural, morphology/microstructure and functional groups were investigated through X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, respectively. In the FESEM and TEM studies, well dispersed Bi2O3 nanoparticles of size 3-5nm were found uniformly distributed throughout the surface and edges of GO sheets. The HRTEM measurements on the Bi2O3 nanoparticle decorated graphene oxide shows imaged lattice spacing of 3.2Å corresponding to (111) plane of Bi2O3 which confirms the successful synthesis of bismuth oxide decorated graphene oxide (Bi2O3@GO) nanocomposite. The synthesized nanocomposite was employed for adsorption and removal of cationic organic dyes like RhB from industrial wastewater. The effect of various parameters, viz., contact time, temperature, pH and amount of adsorbent on the adsorption capability as well as dye removal capacity of the adsorbent was studied in detail. Under optimized conditions, like, contact time (65min), amount of adsorbent (5mg), temperature (35°) and pH (4), the adsorption capacity of GO and Bi2O3@GO were recorded and the percentage of removal was found to be 64% and 80.7% for GO and Bi2O3@GO, respectively. The Bi2O3@GO nanocomposite shows higher adsorption capacity (320mg/g) as compare to only GO (224mg/g). The adsorption isotherm follows both the Temkin as well as Langmuir isotherm having heat of sorption 65.88 with Langmuir constant of 13.13 corresponding to the complete monolayer coverage of 387.44mg/g. The adsorption kinetics also follow, both pseudo first order and intraparticle diffusion model with adsorption capacity of 84.91mg/g and intra particle diffusion rate constant of 10.53mg/g min1/2 for Bi2O3@GO nanocomposites. Our results suggest that the prepared Bi2O3@GO nanocomposites possess potential application as high-performance renewable adsorbent for removal of toxic dyes from wastewater.
