The present work deals with the development of surface-tuned cobalt oxide (Co3O4) nanoparticles dispersed on nitrogen-doped graphene as a potential ORR electrocatalyst possessing some unique advantages. The thermally reduced nitrogen-doped graphene (NGr) was decorated with three different morphologies of Co3O4 nanoparticles, viz., cubic, blunt edged cubic, and spherical, by using a simple hydrothermal method. We found that the spherical Co3O4 nanoparticle supported NGr catalyst (Co3O4-SP/NGr-24h) has acquired a significant activity makeover to display the ORR activity closely matching with the state-of-the-art Pt supported carbon (PtC) catalyst in alkaline medium. Subsequently, the Co3O4-SP/NGr-24h catalyst has been utilized as the air electrode in a Zn-air battery, which was found to show comparable performance to the system derived from PtC. Co3O4-SP/NGr-24h catalyst has shown several hours of flat discharge profile at the discharge rates of 10, 20, and 50 mA/cm(2) with a specific capacity and energy density of similar to 590 mAh/g(-zn) and,840 Wh/kg(-zn), respectively, in the primary Zn-air battery system. In conjunction, Co3O4-SP/NGr-24h has outperformed as an air electrode in mechanical rechargeable Zn-air battery as well, which has shown consistent flat discharge profile with minimal voltage loss at a discharge rate of 50 mA/cm(2). The present results, thus demonstrate that the proper combination of the tuned morphology of Co3O4 with NGr will be a promising and inexpensive material for efficient and ecofriendly cathodes for Zn-air batteries.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">38</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7.145</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pariyar, Anand</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vijaykumar, Gonela</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bhunia, Mrinal</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dey, Suman Kr.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Singh, Santosh K.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kurungot, Sreekumar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mandal, Swadhin K.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Switching closed-shell to open-shell phenalenyl: toward designing electroactive materials</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of the American Chemical Society</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2015</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MAY</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">18</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AMER CHEMICAL SOC</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1155 16TH ST, NW, WASHINGTON, DC 20036 USA</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">137</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5955-5960</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Open-shell phenalenyl chemistry started more than half a century back, and the first solid-state phenalenyl radical was realized only 15 years ago highlighting the synthetic challenges associated in stabilizing carbon-based radical chemistry, though it has great promise as building blocks for molecular electronics and multifunctional materials. Alternatively; stable closed-shell phenalenyl has tremendous potential as it can be utilized, to create an in situ open-shell state by external spin injection. In the present study, we have designed a closed-shell phenalenyl-based iron(III) complex, Fe-III(PLY)(3) (PLY-H = 9-hydroxyphenalenone) displaying an excellent electrocatalytic property as cathode material for one compartment membraneless H2O2 fuel cell.

The real application of oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts mainly suffers from sluggish kinetics and high overpotential except for the Ir and Ru-based systems. However, the high cost and vulnerability of the Ir and Ru metals are the main hostiles to use them for marketization. Herein, a high-performance OER electrocatalyst consisting of NiCo alloy nanoparticles supported on high surface area N-doped porous graphene (NiCo/pNGr(75: 25)) is reported. The importance of the doped-N for achieving the uniform dispersion-cum-effective interaction of the size controlled NiCo alloy nanoparticles has been explicitly investigated by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photo electron spectroscopy, Raman, density functional theory (DFT) calculations, etc. The electrochemical analysis of NiCo/pNGr(75: 25) shows an overpotential of approximate to 260 mV at 10 mA cm(-2) with a smaller Tafel slope of approximate to 87 mV dec(-1) and long catalytic durability. DFT calculations are done to check the interaction between the NiCo alloy nanoparticles and the defective sites of pNGr and also with the doped-N, which could be attained for maintaining long catalytic durability. Furthermore, NiCo/pNGr(75: 25) is used as an OER catalyst to fabricate an electrolyzer, which works at very low potential of 1.5 V in 1 M KOH.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">20</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.365</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Halouane, Fatima</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jijie, Roxana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Meziane, Dalila</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Li, Chengnan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Singh, Santosh K.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bouckaert, Julie</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jurazek, Jean</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kurungot, Sreekumar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barras, Alexandre</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Li, Musen</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Boukherroub, Rabah</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Szunerits, Sabine</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Selective isolation and eradication of E. coli associated with urinary tract infections using anti-fimbrial modified magnetic reduced graphene oxide nanoheaters</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Materials Chemistry B</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2017</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">OCT</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"> 8133-8142</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The fast and efficient elimination of pathogenic bacteria from water, food or biological samples such as blood remains a challenging task. Magnetic isolation of bacteria from complex media holds particular promise for water disinfection and other biotechnological applications employing bacteria. When it comes to infectious diseases such as urinary tract infections, the selective removal of the pathogenic species in complex media such as human serum is also of importance. This issue can only be accomplished by adding pathogen specific targeting sites onto the magnetic nanostructures. In this work, we investigate the potential of 2-nitrodopamine modified magnetic particles anchored on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanocomposites for rapid capture and efficient elimination of E. coli associated with urinary tract infections (UTIs) from water and serum samples. An optimized magnetic nanocarrier achieves a 99.9% capture efficiency even at E. coli concentrations of 1 x 10(1) cfu mL(-1) in 30 min. In addition, functionalization of the nanostructures with poly(ethylene glycol) modified pyrene units and anti-fimbrial E. coli antibodies allowed specific elimination of E. coli UTI89 from serum samples. Irradiation of the E. coli loaded nanocomposite with a near-infrared laser results in the total ablation of the captured pathogens. This method can be flexibly modified for any other pathogenic bacteria, depending on the antibodies used, and might be an interesting alternative material for a magnetic-based body fluid purification approach.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">40</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4.543</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chekin, Fereshteh</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vasilescu, Alina</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jijie, Roxana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Singh, Santosh K.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kurungot, Sreekumar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Iancu, Madalina</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Badea, Gabriela</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Boukherroub, Rabah</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Szunerits, Sabine</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sensitive electrochemical detection of cardiac troponin I in serum and saliva by nitrogen-doped porous reduced graphene oxide electrode</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sensors and Actuators B-Chemical</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2018</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JUN</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">262</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">180-187</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cardiovascular diseases pose one of the highest mortality risks among all diseases in developed countries, steadily increasing the burden on the health systems. Early diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases has consequently become highly important to decrease mortality and to use more adapted therapeutic decisions. We demonstrate here the utility of nitrogen-doped reduced graphene oxide (N-prGO) for detecting and quantifying of cardiac troponin I (cTnI), a key human cardiac protein biomarker, under physiologically relevant conditions. Non-covalent modification of N-prGO by 1-pyrenecarboxylic acid (py-COOH) and poly(ethylene glycol) modified pyrene (py-PEG) ligands allowed the covalent integration of Tro4 aptamer, known for its high selectivity towards cTnI. Using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), a label-free electrochemical sensor for cTnI for concentrations down to 1 pgmL(-1) in human serum could be obtained. This sensitive detection arises from the integration of a porous nanomaterial with excellent electrochemical properties being easily amendable to site-specific surface modification.

Complex B was found to be kinetically and thermodynamically more active than complex A. The overpotential and Tafel slope of complex B are lower than those of complex A by 30 mV and around 45 mV/decade, respectively, which supports the higher activity of B. Moreover, stability tests endorse the sustainability of both samples under alkaline conditions. It has been found that the 3,5‐di‐tert‐butylphenyl substituent in B plays a decisive role in achieving a better OER onset potential and current than that obtained with A, which is a result of the modulation of the structural parameters of B. Furthermore, the measured OER activities of A and B have been correlated with their molecular arrangement as well as differences in their bonding characteristics and dipole moments. For further insight, the obtained results have been confirmed by a theoretical study.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;2.444&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
