Unraveling the hazardous impact of diverse contaminants in the marine environment: Detection and remedial approach through nanomaterials and nano-biosensors

Biosynthesis of iron oxide nanoparticles for the degradation of methylene blue dye, sulfisoxazole antibiotic and removal of bacteria from real water

“…According to the plotted results indicated in Figure 7(e), the rate of the reaction is following the Pseudo first-order kinetic with the kinetics rate equal to k ¼ 0.096 min À1 , thus leading to the fastest rate of reaction conducted at pH 12 than the rest of the pH measurements. When comparing our results with previously published data, it can be noted that iron oxide nanoparticles are effective in dye removal in general [29,30]. Bhuiyan et al got a 99% removal at basic conditions of pH 12 as well with the minimal rate of 0.008 min À1 following first order (R 2 ¼ 0.99) kinetic.…”

Nanomaterial-based electrochemical chemo(bio)sensors for the detection of nanoplastic residues: trends and future prospects

“…Various nanomaterials, including graphene, carbon nanotubes, metal nanoparticles, metal oxides, and hybrid nanocomposites, take center stage in NPL residue detection, offering innovative solutions due to their exceptional properties. [40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47] Furthermore, the ability of electrochemical NPL residue sensors to function across a wide range of potentials holds promise for thorough water quality monitoring. [48][49][50][51] Our review systematically explores the contributions of diverse nanomaterials to the eld, shedding light on their roles in enhancing sensor performance and expanding the horizons of environmental monitoring.…”

Microplastics and Nano-Plastics: From Initiation to Termination

“…Globally, plastic consumption is increasing annually, with current estimates indicating plastic output surpassing 365 million tons in 2020 (Chen et al, 2022). In light of the fact that plastic permeates every area of life (Zhu et al, 2021), and eventually degrades into smaller particles (Bastyans et al, 2022), the potential effects of micro-and nano-plastics (MNPs) on the human body and the environment have become a worldwide source of concern (Briffa, 2021;Kumar et al, 2022;Liu et al, 2022;Saravanakumar et al, 2022;Wagner & Reemtsma, 2019).…”
