Environmental pollution of heavy metals (HMs), mainly due to anthropogenic activities, has
received growing attention in recent decades. HMs, especially the non-essential …

Heavy metals pose a significant threat to ecosystems and human health because of their
toxic properties and their ability to bioaccumulate in living organisms. Traditional removal …

The zerovalent iron nanoparticles (nZVI) tend to agglomerate, therefore, exhibit reduced
adsorption and catalytic activity. To overcome this, we decorate novel peach skin-derived …

Heavy metal ions (HMIs) have acute toxic effects on health and are dangerous for human
existence and the ecosystem. Therefore, their sensitive and selective detection is of great …

Due to their unique properties such as superparamagnetism, easy surface functionalization,
and colloidal stability among others, silica coated iron oxide nanoparticles (SIONPs) have …

Water contamination with heavy metals has become a major concern in the present time,
which necessitates the need for effective and flexible techniques for water remediation …

Permissible limits of Pb 2+ in drinking water are being reduced from 10 μgL-1 to 5 μgL-1,
which calls for rapid, and highly reliable detection techniques. Electrochemical sensors have …

The annual growth of water pollution resulting from the uncontrolled entry of heavy metals,
like Pb 2+ ions, is one of the most critical global concerns due to its direct and indirect effects …

Antitumor hyperthermia therapy is an emerging approach for the thermal treatment of
cancer. Magnetite-based nanoparticles are very promising hyperthermia agents due to its …

In this work, the synthesis of ordered mesoporous silica of MCM-41 type was investigated
aimed at improving its morphology by varying the synthesis conditions in a one-pot process …
