Second phase Cu < sub > 2 < /sub > O boosted photocatalytic activity of fluorine doped CuO nanoparticles
RSC Adv. 2024 Apr 11;14(17):11677-11693. doi: 10.1039/d3ra08790e. eCollection 2024 Apr 10.ABSTRACTThe photocatalytic activity of fluorine (F) doped CuO nanoparticles (NPs) prepared employing modified sol-gel process was investigated here in this study. Structural and elemental characterization using XRD and XPS data confirmed successful incorporation of F as dopant. F doping led to lattice distortion and reduced crystallinity with smaller crystallite size while promoting the emergence of Cu2O as the second phase. Morphological analysis showed irregularly shaped, fused particles with a decreasing particle size trend upon do...

Biosynthesis of Ag-Doped CuO Nanoparticles Using Heracleum persicum Extract for Enhanced Antibacterial and Photocatalytic Dye Degradation Properties
This study presents the synthesis of copper oxide nanoparticles doped with silver nanoparticles utilizingHeracleum persicum (H. persicum) extract (CuO-Ag@H. persicum). Characterization techniques including XRD, FT-IR, SEM, and TEM confirmed the successful synthesis of homogeneous CuO-Ag@H. persicum nanoparticles without impurities, exhibiting a spherical morphology with sizes ranging from 35 to 65 nm. The incorporation of silver nanoparticles on the surface of the copper oxide introduces unique optical properties, notably the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) phenomenon, enhancing photocatalytic activity. Under UV and sunlig...

Perovskite hydroxide-based laccase mimics with controllable activity for environmental remediation and biosensing
Biosens Bioelectron. 2024 Apr 7;256:116275. doi: 10.1016/j.bios.2024.116275. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTConstructing relatively inexpensive nanomaterials to simulate the catalytic performance of laccase is of great significance in recent years. Although research on improving laccase-like activity by regulating ligands of copper (amino acids or small organic molecules, etc.) have achieved remarkable success. There are few reports on improving laccase-like activity by adjusting the composition of metal Cu. Here, we used perovskite hydroxide AB(OH)6 as a model to evaluate the relationship between Cu based alloys and their ...

Insights into tolerance mechanisms of earthworms (Eisenia fetida) in copper-contaminated soils by integrating multi-omics analyses
Environ Res. 2024 Apr 9:118910. doi: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.118910. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEarthworms can resist high levels of soil copper (Cu) contamination and play an essential role in absorbing them effectively. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying Cu tolerance in earthworms are poorly understood. To address this research gap, we studied alterations of Eisenia fetida in antioxidant enzymes, gut microbiota, metabolites, and genes under varying levels of Cu exposure soils (0, 67.58, 168.96, 337.92 mg/kg). Our results revealed a reduction in antioxidant enzyme activities across all treatment groups, indicat...
