Silver nanoparticles and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) nanocomposite was preparedin situby photo-induced thermal reduction method. The interfacial interaction of Ag nanoparticles and PMMA polymer is investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Optical properties of Ag/PMMA films were characterized by UV-Vis and FTIR absorption spectroscopy. Effects of the UV and heat-treatment time on the formation of silver nanoparticles in PMMA matric matrix were studied in detail. These investigations proposed new nanocomposite structures. They can be defined as plasmonic materials with improved optical properties. Ag/PMMA structures may found a number of technological applications: in optical devices, various plasmonic sensors or even in nanomedicine.

Silver nanoparticles have been synthesized by reduction method using extract of Muntingia calabura L. leaf a bioreductor. The process of silver nanoparticles formation was monitored by UV-Vis method. The results showed that the absorbance values increased according to the increase of reaction time. Maximum absorption of silver nanoparticle was obtained at a wavelength of 41-421 nm. The size of silver nanoparticles was determined using a PSA (Particle Size Analyzer) with a particle size distribution of 97.04 nm. The functional groups compound that contribute in the synthesis was analyzed using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Morphology of the silver nanoparticles was observed by an Scanning Electron Microscope instrument and the structure characterization of the compounds were analyzed using X-Ray Diffraction. The glucose nanosensor based on silver nanoparticles have the measurement range of 1 mM - 4 mM with the regretion (R2) is 0,9516, the detection limit of sensor is 3,2595 mM, the sensitivity of sensor is 2,0794 A. mM-1. mM-2.

In this study, Pt-doped Bi2MoO6 nanocomposites were prepared by solvothermal and in situ reduction method. We used XRD, UV-Vis spectroscopy, TEM, EDS, and XPS to characterize its chemical properties. Results showed that the Pt-doped Bi2MoO6 nanocomposites had advantages of small size, good dispersion, and wide spectral response range. Then, we tested its biological toxicity and PDT efficiency on HL60 cells. Both pure Bi2MoO6 and Pt-doped Bi2MoO6 nanocomposites showed great biocompatibility after coincubated with leukemia cells for 12 h in the dark. As to PDT efficiency, Pt-doped Bi2MoO6 had a better-inactivated effect than pure Bi2MoO6. Furthermore, the PDT efficiency went up when atomic ratios and concentration increased. While the atomic ratio was 5% and the concentration was 1000 μg/mL, it reached the highest value at 85.2%. At last, we briefly analyzed the photocatalysis mechanism, which demonstrated that it was a potential photosensitizer with high efficiency for treating leukemia.

Steadily growing interest in magnetic characterization of organic compounds for therapeutic purposes or of other irregularly shaped specimens calls for refinements of experimental methodology to satisfy experimental challenges. Encapsulation in capsules remains the method of choice, but its applicability in precise magnetometry is limited. This is particularly true for minute specimens in the single milligram range as they are outweighed by the capsules and are subject to large alignment errors. We present here a completely new experimental methodology that permits 30-fold in situ reduction of the signal of capsules by substantially restoring the symmetry of the sample holder that is otherwise broken by the presence of the capsule. In practical terms it means that the standard 30 mg capsule is seen by the magnetometer as approximately a 1 mg object, effectively opening the window for precise magnetometry of single milligram specimens. The method is shown to work down to 1.8 K and in the whole range of the magnetic fields. The method is demonstrated and validated using the reciprocal space option of MPMS-SQUID magnetometers; however, it can be easily incorporated in any magnetometer that can accommodate straw sample holders (i.e., the VSM-SQUID). Importantly, the improved sensitivity is accomplished relying only on the standard accessories and data reduction method provided by the SQUID manufacturer, eliminating the need for elaborate raw data manipulations.

ABSTRACTCarbon aerogels with tailored pore sizes were prepared by using a combination of sol-gel processing, supercritical CO2 extraction and pyrolysis. Ruthenium particles were incorporated via impregnation of organometallic precursors using supercritical CO2, followed by in situ thermal reduction. TEM studies reveal that the carbon aerogels are characterized by a continuous pore structure and that the ruthenium particles are highly dispersed with a narrow size distribution. It is found that under certain circumstances the carbon aerogels undergo a structural transition under the electron beam, in which the original tortuous aerogel network transforms into onion-like structures.

Sericin fromBombyx moricocoon has good hydrophilicity, reaction activity, biocompatibility, and biodegradability, which has shown great potentials for biomedical materials. Here, an ultraviolet light-assistedin situsynthesis approach is developed to immobilize silver nanoparticles on the surface of sericin gel. The amount of silver nanoparticles immobilized on the surface of sericin gel could be regulated by the irradiation time. The porous structure and property of sericin gel were not affected by the modification of AgNPs, as evidenced by the observation of scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffractometry, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Differential scanning calorimetry analysis showed that the modification of AgNPs increased the thermal stability of sericin gel. The growth curve of bacteria and inhibition zone assays suggested that the sericin gel modified with AgNPs had good antimicrobial activities against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. This novel sericin has shown a great potential for biomedical purpose.
