Three-dimensional cubic ordered mesoporous carbons with tunable pore sizes have been synthesized by using cubic Ia3d mesoporous KIT-6 silica as the hard template and boric acid as the pore expanding agent. The prepared ordered mesoporous carbons were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and nitrogen adsorption-desorption anal...

Magnetism is an intriguing physical cue that can alter the behaviors of a broad range of cells. Nanocomposite scaffolds that exhibit magnetic properties are thus considered useful 3D matrix for culture of cells and their fate control in repair and regeneration processes. Here we produced magnetic nanocomposite scaffolds made of magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) and polycaprolactone (PCL), and the ...

A UV, visible and NIR range irradiation responsive magnetite/graphite nanoplatelets composite was successfully synthesised via a single-step facile in-situ electrochemical exfoliation method using natural vein graphite. The spectral analysis revealed that as-synthesised photocatalytic could rapidly degrade the organic dyes with 96.1, 78.0 82.6 % efficiency in 120 minutes under respective Visibl...

In this study, different variables that influence cesium adsorption from aqueous solutions were investigated by a synthesized nanocomposite. The spherical mesoporous silica surfaces modified with potassium hexacyanoferrate and characterized various methods such as FT-IR, XRD, FESEM, TGA BET/BJH. response surface methodology based on Central Composite Design was applied to optimize the ion condi...

Assessment of adsorption zinc (II) ions from aqueous solution using alginate-SBA-15 sorbent nanocomposite was investigated as a function of zinc concentration, solution pH, and contact time. For that purpose, the alginate-SBA-15 nanocomposite adsorbent was prepared through encapsulation method by immobilization mesoporous SBA-15 into a polymeric matrix. Identification of functional groups and s...

The detection of extracellular vesicles, or exosomes are important mediators in intercellular communication and often play a role cancer progression. CD63 is key exosomal protein due to its distinctive cellular functions association with many cancers. This describes label-free electrochemiluminescence (ECL) nanoimmunosensor for the over mesoporous carbon screen-printed electrode (MC-SPE) modifi...

An ultrasensitive and selective electrochemical immunosensor was developed for the detection of hepatitis C virus (HCV) core antigen. The immunosensor consists of graphitized mesoporous carbon-methylene blue (GMCs-MB) nanocomposite as an electrode modified material and a horseradish peroxidase-DNA-coated carboxyl multi-wall carbon nanotubes (CMWNTs) as a secondary antibody layer. After modifica...

in this study, removal of acid blue 62 from aqueous solution by mesoporous silicate mcm-41 modified by aminopropyltriethoxysilane (aptes) composite was studied. properties of synthesized composite were analyzed and confirmed by sem, edx and ftir. results show that langmuir adsorption isotherm has the best compatibility with the results of experiments. kinetic analysis using pseudo-first-order m...
