AB  - Nanoparticles (NPs), a distinct class of particles ranging in size from 1 to 100 nm, are one of the most promising technologies of the 21st century, and titanium dioxide NPs (TiO2 NPs) are among the most widely produced and used NPs globally. The increased application of TiO2 NPs raises concerns regarding their global safety and risks of exposure. Many animal studies have reported the accumulation of TiO2 NPs in female reproductive organs; however, evidence of the resultant toxicity remains ambiguous. Since the surface area and chemical modifications of NPs can significantly change their cytotoxicity, we aimed to compare the toxic effects of pristine TiO2 powder with surface-modified TiO2 powders with salicylic acid (TiO2/SA) and 5-aminosalicylic acid (TiO2/5-ASA) on the ovaries, oviducts, and uterus on the 14th day following acute oral treatment. The results, based on alterations in food and water intake, body mass, organ-to-body mass ratio, hormonal status, histological features of tissues of interest, and antioxidant parameters, suggest that the modification with 5-ASA can mitigate some of the observed toxic effects of TiO2 powder and encourage future investigations to create NPs that can potentially reduce the harmful effects of TiO2 NPs while preserving their positive impacts.

AB  - The surface modification of commercial TiO2 powder with catecholate-type ligand Tiron (TIR) leads to the formation of the interfacial charge transfer complex (ICT) absorbing in the visible spectral range. The estimated band gap energy of the ICT complex (Eg = 2.2 eV) by density functional theory (DFT) calculations agrees with experimental measurements. The surface-modified TiO2 with TIR has enhanced sorption capacity towards Pb2+ ions compared to the pristine one due to the presence of free sulfonate groups. Our attempt to reduce Pb2+ ions to metallic form failed. The TiO2-based ICT complex with TIR can serve as an efficient sorbent to remove Pb2+ ions from the solution without the ability to recover them in metallic form in a photo-driven catalytic process. The photocatalytic ability of the ICT complex to induce oxidation reactions is significantly improved since the complete degradation of organic dye methyl orange occurs under exclusive excitations with visible light photons.

AB  - The interfacial charge transfer (ICT) complex formation is a simple procedure to bring optical absorption of widebandgap oxide materials in the visible spectral range, crucial for enhancing their use in photo-driven reactions. The optical absorption of the prepared ICT complexes between ZnO and five different colorless benzene derivatives is red-shifted compared to pristine ZnO nanopowder. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations provided realistic energy level alignment in hybrid systems. Also, the DFT-calculated infrared spectra support the binding structures derived based on experimental measurements of free and adsorbed ligands onto ZnO surfaces. The photocatalytic performance of prepared hybrids was evaluated using photocatalytic hydrogen generation in the water-splitting reaction. The ZnO nanopowders modified with catechol and caffeic acid have over 50% higher hydrogen production rate than pristine ZnO, displaying steady hydrogen production under long-run working conditions.

AB  - Visible-light-responsive graphite-embedded titanium dioxide nanofibers (G-TiO2 NFs), prepared by electrospinning and post-treatment with rhodizonic acid (RhA), show biocidal effects against E. coli and S. aureus when excited with visible light. The red absorption shift of surface-modified G-TiO2 NFs with RhA of about 1.1 eV is a consequence of interfacial charge transfer (ICT) complex formation facilitated by a condensation reaction between hydroxyl groups originating from the ligand and surface TiO2. The optical properties of the inorganic–organic hybrid are studied in-depth by density functional theory (DFT) calculations using a cluster model. The prepared samples are thoroughly characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR), Fourier-transform infra-red (FTIR) spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Under visible light illumination, surface-modified G-TiO2 NFs display a near-to ideal biocidal effect against E. coli and S. aureus and no cytotoxicity was observed toward L929 fibroblast cells. Overall, the experimental results suggest that fabrics based on surface-modified G-TiO2 NFs with RhA can be potentially used to control the persistence and spread of bacterial infection.

AB  - The interfacial charge transfer (ICT) complex formation between zirconium dioxide (ZrO2), the material absorbing below 250 nm, and 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) leads to the formation of visible-light-absorbing inorganic–organic hybrids. The free amino groups, present on the hybrid's surface after the ICT complex formation, were used to reduce silver ions and link silver particles to ZrO2. The prepared samples were characterized by using transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherms. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations using a cluster model are applied to explain optical changes in hybrids, i.e., absorption redshift induced by the ICT complex formation. Decolorization of an organic dye crystal violet (CV), under ultraviolet-C or visible light, was used to compare the photocatalytic ability of the prepared samples. The ICT complex formation transformed ZrO2 into a hybrid material able to induce photocatalytic reactions under exclusive visible light excitation.

AB  - Dry olive leaf extract (DOLE) and its active component oleuropein (OLE) were applied as reducing and stabilizing agents to prepare colloidal 20–25 nm silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs). The Ag NPs were characterized using transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and absorption spectroscopy. The cytotoxic actions of coated Ag NPs, and their inorganic and organic components, were examined against trophoblast cells and human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs), Gram-positive, Gram-negative bacteria, and yeast. The genotoxic potential was evaluated in PBLs in vitro with the comet assay. Ag/DOLE and Ag/OLE induced cytotoxic effects in both types of cells after 24 h exposure when silver concentrations were 0.025–0.2 mM. However, the most pronounced cytotoxicity exhibits Ag/OLE. Both colloids also caused reduced ROS production in both cell types at 0.1 mM and 0.2 mM, while bare Ag NPs did not alter ROS levels at any of the conditions. Functionalized Ag/DOLE and Ag/OLE did not show genotoxic effects in PBLs, while bare AgNPs increased DNA damage significantly only at 0.2 mM. Regarding the antimicrobial effects, the Ag/OLE had MIC values for all evaluated microorganisms from 0.0625 to less than 0.0312 mM. Also, the antimicrobial effect of Ag/DOLE was significantly higher on Gram-negative bacteria and yeast than on Gram-positive bacteria. Obtained results indicate that Ag/OLE induced the most pronounced biological effects, beneficial for its application as an antimicrobial agent, but with potential risks from exposure to high concentrations that could induce cytotoxicity in healthy human cells.

AB  - Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (Ti02 NPs) are widely used in different cosmetic products, food additives and pharmaceuticals. Their accumulation within the body is associated with adverse health effects. Since animal studies indicate that their outcomes could be ameliorated by different modifications, we tested the impact of Ti02 NPs surface-modified with 5-aminosalicylic acid (Ti02/5-ASA NPs) in female adult Wistar rats. For the purpose of this experiment,14 days following the acute oral intake, the effects of commercially available Ti02 NPs and i02/5-ASA NPs were compared, using well defined methods, to assess the signs of acute toxicity (agitation, convulsion, and mortality) and neurological function (visual placing,
spontaneous activity, and pacing/circling) along with the levels of end products of lipid peroxidation (LPP) in eyes. Our results indicate that following the treatments, spontaneous activity was disturbed while mortality, convulsion and visual placing were unaltered. The modification decreased Ti02 NPs-induced
impairment of agitation and pacing/circling. The insight into biomolecules in the eyes, more precisely into a marker of oxidative stress (LPP), showed that it was decreased after treatment with Ti02/5-ASA NPs in comparison to Ti02 NPs, indicating that this type of modification might mitigate Ti02 NPs-induced oxidative stress. According to obtained results, even though the exact  mechanism of the actions is still unknown, the modification with 5-aminosalicylic acid alleviates toxic effects of commercially available Ti02 NPs.

AB  - Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a wide bandgap ceramic material with various potential applications like photocatalysis. Surface modification of ZnO nano-powder with salicylate-type ligands (salicylic acid and 5-aminosalicylic acid) as well as catecholate-type ligands (catechol, 3,4dihydroxybenzoic acid, and caffeic acid), induces the appearance of absorption in the visible spectral region due to the interfacial charge transfer (ICT) complex formation. The prepared samples were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), used to identify the binding mode between ligands and the surface of ZnO. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations with properly designed model systems, were performed to estimate the alignment of energy levels of various inorganic/organic hybrids. A reasonably good agreement between calculated values and experimental data for FTIR and reflectance spectra was found.

AB  - Aqueous colloids, consisting of 15–30 nm-sized silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs), were prepared using the reducing and stabilizing abilities of glucose, sucrose, and dextran. The long-term stability of coated Ag NPs increases from glucose over sucrose to dextran, i.e., with the increase of the molecular weight of carbohydrate molecules. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations of the partial atomic (Mulliken) charges and adsorption energies are applied to explain the enhanced stability of coated Ag NPs. All coated Ag NPs have a significantly broader concentration range of nontoxic behavior toward pre-osteoblast cells than bare Ag NPs prepared using sodium borohydride. The carbohydrate-coated Ag NPs display the same level of toxic ability against Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) and Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) bacteria as bare Ag NPs. The differences in toxicity mechanism of the coated and bare Ag NPs are a consequence of the absence and presence of co-occurring Ag+ ions in examined dispersion, respectively.

AB  - The attachment of squaric acid, a non-aromatic molecule, to the surface of TiO2 powder induced the optical absorption of the obtained hybrid material in the visible spectral range due to the interfacial charge transfer complex formation. The optical characterization of the hybrid is supported by the density functional theory calculations of the model cluster. The paramagnetic species generated upon excitation with ultraviolet or visible light, in both TiO2 powders, pristine and surface-modified, were identified conducting low-temperature solid-state and indirect electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy experiments (spin trapping and spin scavenging). The solid-state EPR experiments indicated the promotion of electrons from the organic moiety to the titania conduction band under visible-light excitation of hybrid. Also, the spin scavenging experiments showed that the electrons generated in the hybrid upon the visible-light activation facilitate the reduction of the radical cations present in the dispersion, while these effects are not observed for pristine TiO2.

AB  - The optical properties of surface-modified silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) with aromatic amino acids tryptophan (Trp) and histidine (His) were examined using the cluster model for density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations. Also, the redistribution of electronic charges upon chemisorption of ligand molecules onto silver's surfaces is determined. The obtained theoretical data, on one side, undoubtedly indicate the the formation of an interfacial charge transfer (ICT) complex between silver and this type of ligand, and, on the other side, partial oxidation of surface silver atoms accompanied by an increase of electron density in ligand molecules. The ICT complex formation, based on noble metal nanoparticles, has never been reported previously to the best of our knowledge. The experimental spectroscopic measurements support the theoretical data. A new absorption band in the visible spectral range appears upon surface modification of Ag NPs, and, when exposed to air, oxidation of surface-modified Ag NPs is significantly faster than the oxidation of the unmodified ones.

AB  - The antibacterial performance and cytotoxic examination of in situ prepared silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs), on inorganic-organic hybrid nanopowder consisting of zirconium dioxide nanoparticles (ZrO2 NPs) and dihydroquercetin (DHQ), was performed against Gram (−) bacteria Escherichia coli and Gram (+) bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, as well as against human cervical cancer cells HeLa and healthy MRC-5 human cells. The surface modification of ZrO2 NPs, synthesized by the sol-gel method, with DHQ leads to the interfacial charge transfer (ICT) complex formation indicated by the appearance of absorption in the visible spectral range. The prepared samples were thoroughly characterized (TEM, XRD, reflection spectroscopy), and, in addition, the spectroscopic observations are supported by the density functional theory (DFT) calculations using a cluster model. The concentration- and time-dependent antibacterial tests indicated a complete reduction of bacterial species, E. coli and S. aureus, for all investigated concentrations of silver (0.10, 0.25, and 0.50 mg/mL) after 24 h of contact. On the other side, the functionalized ZrO2 NPs with DHQ, before and after deposition of Ag NPs, do not display a significant decrease in the viability of HeLa MRC-5 cells in any of the used concentrations compared to the control.

AB  - Široka primena nanočestica titanijum-dioksida (TiO2 NČ) u medicini, farmaceutskoj, prehrambenoj i hemijskoj industriji,1 čini TiO2 NČ visoko zastupljenim u životnoj sredini i svim sferama čovekovog života. Negativne efekte ostvaruju u mozgu, s obzirom da lako prolaze krvno-moždanu barijeru, akumuliraju se u različitim regionima mozga i indukuju oksidativni stres tokom kog se oštećuju svi biomolekuli, uključujući i lipide.2 Literaturni podaci ukazuju da različite modifikacije mogu ublažiti uočene efekte, stoga je cilj ovog rada bio da se uporedi odgovor odraslih Wistar pacova 14 dana nakon jednokratnog oralnog tretmana sa komercijalno dostupnim TiO2 NČ i TiO2 NČ površinski modifikovanim salicilnom (TiO2/SK NČ) odnosno 5- aminosalicilnom kiselinom (TiO2/5-ASK NČ). Odgovarajućim testovima praćene su promene parametara senzorno-motorne funkcije (SMF), kao pokazatelja neurološkog deficita, dok je oksidativni stres praćen promenom nivoa lipidne peroksidacije (LPO) u ukupnom ćelijskom ekstraktu moždanog tkiva. Dobijeni rezultati ukazuju da TiO2/SK NČ ispoljavaju slične efekte kao TiO2 NČ, povećavajući nivo LPO koji može biti uzrok narušene SMF. Sa druge strane, smanjen stepen neurološkog deficita i nivoa oksidativnog stresa nakon TiO2/5- ASK NČ tretmana, mogu se povezati sa povećanjem aktivnosti komponenti antioksidativne zaštite. Stoga, može se pretpostaviti da površinska modifikacija TiO2 NČ sa 5-ASK ima sposobnost ublažavanja štetnih efekata komercijalno dostupnih TiO2 NČ.

AB  - Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) are widely used in many daily necessities, including medicine, food/ beverages, and cosmetics. Besides the numerous benefits of TiO2 NPs utilization, their use raises public concerns since humans are exposed to their toxicity. As different alterations could moderate the observed side effects of commercially available bare TiO2 NPs, we investigated whether TiO2/SA NPs (TiO2 NPs surface‑modified with salicylic acid (SA)) impact the bare TiO2 NPs-induced sensory-motor impairments and eye level of 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) as the final product of lipid peroxidation and indicator of oxidative stress. Our results demonstrate that 14 days following single oral treatment both investigated TiO2 NPs in adult Wistar rats affected neurological functions and promoted oxidative stress to different extents. Namely, the SA modification alleviated TiO2 NPs-induced asymmetry in four limb movement, while the hind limb clasping reflex and spontaneous activity scores were similar between TiO2 groups. In the eye crude membrane fraction of TiO2/SA NPs-treated rats in comparison to animals treated with bare TiO2 NPs, the HNE level was downregulated. Although SA exhibits the ability to reduce some TiO2 NPs toxicity, due to still unknown mechanism of TiO2 and TiO2/SA NPs actions, further studies are required to verify herein presented findings

AB  - The search for alternative antimicrobial strategies capable of avoiding resistance mechanisms in bacteria are highly needed due to the alarming emergence of antimicrobial resistance. The application of physical stimuli as a mean of sensitizing bacteria for the action of antimicrobials on otherwise resistant bacteria or by allowing the action of low quantity of antimicrobials may be seen as a breakthrough for such purpose. This work proposes the development of antibacterial nanocomposites using the synergy between the electrically active microenvironments, created by a piezoelectric polymer (poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-trifluoroethylene) (PVDF-TrFE)), with green-synthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The electrical microenvironment is generated via mechanical stimulation of piezoelectric PVDF-TrFE/AgNPs films using a lab-made mechanical bioreactor. The generated material's electrical response further translates to bacterial cells, namely Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus epidermidis which in combination with AgNPs and the specific morphological features of the material induce important antibacterial and antibiofilm activity. Both porous and non-porous PVDF composites have shown antibacterial characteristics when stimulated at a mechanical frequency of 4 Hz being the effect boosted when AgNPs were incorporated in the nanocomposite, reducing in more than 80% the S. epidermidis bacterial growth in planktonic and biofilm form. The electroactive environments sensitize the bacteria allowing the action of a low dose of AgNPs (1.69% (w/w)). Importantly, the material did not compromise the viability of mammalian cells, thus being considered biocompatible. The piezoelectric stimulation of PVDF-based polymeric films may represent a breakthrough in the development of antibacterial coatings for devices used at hospital setting, taking advantage on the use of mechanical stimuli (pressure/touch) to exert antibacterial and antibiofilm activity.Statement of significanceThe application of physical methods in alternative to the common chemical ones is seen as a breakthrough for avoiding the emergence of antimicrobial resistance. Antimicrobial strategies that take advantage on the capability of bacteria to sense physical stimuli such as mechanical and electrical cues are scarce. Electroactive nanocomposites comprised of poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-trifluoroethylene (PVDF-TrFE) and green-synthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were developed to obtain material able to inhibit the colonization of microorganisms. By applying a mechanical stimuli to the nanocomposite, which ultimately mimics movements such as walking or touching, an antimicrobial effect is obtained, resulting from the synergy between the electroactive microenvironments created on the surface of the material and the AgNPs. Such environments sensitize the bacteria to low doses of antimicrobials.

AB  - The toxicity of hybrid nanoparticles, consisting of non-toxic components, zirconium dioxide nanoparticles (ZrO2 NPs), and caffeic acid (CA), was examined against four different cell lines (HTR-8 SV/Neo, JEG-3, JAR, and HeLa). Stable aqueous ZrO2 sol, synthesized by forced hydrolysis, consists of 3–4 nm in size primary particles organized in 30–60 nm in size snowflake-like particles, as determined by transmission electron microscopy and direct light scattering measurements. The surface modification of ZrO2 NPs with CA leads to the formation of an interfacial charge transfer (ICT) complex followed by the appearance of absorption in the visible spectral range. The spectroscopic observations are complemented with the density functional theory calculations using a cluster model. The ZrO2 NPs and CA are non-toxic against four different cell lines in investigated concentration range. Also, ZrO2 NPs promote the proliferation of HTR-8 SV/Neo, JAR, and HeLa cells. On the other hand, hybrid ZrO2/CA NPs induced a significant reduction of the viability of the JEG-3 cells (39 %) for the high concentration of components (1.6 mM ZrO2 and 0.4 mM CA).

AB  - A visible-light-responsive hybrid material was prepared by surface-modification of γ-Al2O3, an insulator with a bandgap of about 8.7 eV, with 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA), leading to the formation of an interfacial charge transfer (ICT) complex. The microstructural characterization of pristine γ-Al2O3 includes X-ray diffraction analysis, transmission electron microscopy, and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms. The pristine γ-Al2O3 powder consists of agglomerated rod-like nanoparticles ((2-3) × (15-20) nm, diameter × length) with the large specific surface area (~420 m2/g). An enormous absorption red-shift is observed upon the formation of the ICT complex. The absorption onset of the inorganic-organic hybrid was found to be at 730 nm by diffuse reflection spectroscopy. The photocatalytic performance of prepared samples was thoroughly tested using the decolorization of the organic dye crystal violet (CV) under illumination in different spectral regions and different light intensities. Excitation with UV light leads to complete decolorization of CV, while the degradation kinetics are impeded when a visible light source is used. Also, the increase of UV light intensity induced significantly faster degradation kinetics of CV, while the degradation rates of CV are quite insensitive to the increase of visible light intensity.

AB  - Cerium dioxide (CeO2) finds applications in areas such as corrosion protection, solar cells, or catalysis, finding increasing applications in biomedicine. This work reports on surface-modified CeO2 particles in order to tune their applicability in the biomedical field. Stable aqueous CeO2 sol, consisting of 3-4 nm in size crystallites, was synthesized using forced hydrolysis. The coordination of catecholate-type of ligands (catechol, caffeic acid, tiron, and dopamine) to the surface-Ce atoms is followed with the appearance of absorption in the visible spectral range as a consequence of interfacial charge-transfer complex formation. The spectroscopic observations are complemented with the density functional theory calculations using a cluster model. The synthesized samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis, transmission electron microscopy, and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms. The ζ-potential measurements indicated that the stability of CeO2 sol is preserved upon surface modification. The pristine CeO2 nanoparticles (NPs) are nontoxic against pre-osteoblast cells in the entire studied concentration range (up to 1.5 mM). Hybrid CeO2 NPs, capped with dopamine or caffeic acid, display toxic behavior for concentrations ≥0.17 and 1.5 mM, respectively. On the other hand, surface-modified CeO2 NPs with catechol and tiron promote the proliferation of pre-osteoblast cells. Copyright © 2020 American Chemical Society.

AB  - The effect of dextran-coated silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs 12.0 ± 1.9 nm) loading (0−0.42 wt%) on the mechanical, barrier, and antimicrobial properties of thin (50−60 μm) films prepared from cellulose nanofibrils by solvent casting method were studied as eco-friendly and food-preservative packaging materials. The presence of dextran was shown to act not only as a dispersing media for Ag NPs and controlling its release but also as a moisture-resistant sealable additive that, synergetically with reduced oxygen permeability, may preserve the food against bacteria growth. Thus, significantly reduced Oxygen Transmission Rates (from 2.07 to 1.40-0.78 cm3 m−2d−1) and hydrophilicity (from 20.8° to 52.4° for MilliQ water, and from 35-37° to 62-74° for 3 % acetic acid and 0.9 % NaCl simulant solutions), yielding a 99.9 % inhibition of Escherichia coli after five repeated cycles of 24 h exposure to 0.9 % NaCl solution was displayed, supported by a controlled release of Ag+ ions (below the toxicologically harmful threshold, <0.5 mg L-1).

AB  - The efficiency of titanate-nanotubes-based photocatalysts towards hydrogen production was studied in the presence of the sacrificial agent, 2-propanol. The highest hydrogen production rate (~120 lmol h 1 g 1 ) was observed over surface-modified titanate nanotubes by 5-amino salicylic acid decorated with nanometer-sized silver nanoparticles. The X-ray diffraction analysis, transmission electron microscopy, nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherms, and diffuse reflection spectroscopy were applied to characterize the prepared photocatalytic materials. The better photocatalytic performance of inorganic–organic hybrid materials in comparison to the pristine titanate nanotubes is a consequence of their improved light-harvesting ability due to the formation of interfacial charge transfer (ICT) complex, as well as the presence of metallic silver nanoparticles that suppress the recombination of photo-generated charge carriers. The spin trapping EPR experiments under irradiation of prepared photocatalysts with either UV or visible light were used to monitor the appearance of hydroxyl radicals and superoxide radical anions. The generation of superoxide radical anions under visible light irradiation was detected for hybrid materials, but not for the pristine titanate nanotubes. These results are a consequence of enhanced promotion ofelectrons to the conduction band due to extended absorption in visible spectral range in hybrids and support the higher efficiency of hydrogen generation observed for surface-modified titanate nanotubes by 5-amino salicylic acid decorated with silver nanoparticles.

AB  - The aim of this study was the development of a non-toxic, biosynthetic antimicrobial agent which selectively acts on only one type of microorganism, and preserves the microbiota. Antimicrobial performance of biosynthesized silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) by horsetail (Equisetum arvense L.) extract was examined against Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli and Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, as well as yeasts Candida albicans and Saccharomyces boulardii. Also, the cytotoxicity of Ag NPs was examined toward pre-osteoblast cells. The synthetic conditions—concentration of extract, temperature, and pH—were optimized to prepare silver colloids with different particle size distributions and long-term stability. The obtained samples were characterized using transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and absorption spectroscopy. The smaller-sized Ag NPs (~ 10–20 nm), prepared at a lower temperature (20 °C), showed better antimicrobial performance against E. coli compared to larger ones (~ 40–60 nm), prepared at high temperature (100 °C). On the other hand, both samples did not display any toxic action against bacteria S. aureus, or yeasts C. albicans and S. boulardii. Non-cytotoxic behavior of Ag NPs toward pre-osteoblast cells was observed for the concentrations of silver ≤ 2.25 and ≤ 4.5 mg L−1 for 10–20 and 40–60 nm-sized Ag NPs, respectively. Biosynthesized Ag NPs by horsetail extract display selective toxic action against E. coli at the ecologically acceptable concentration level. © 2019, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.

AB  - The sorption ability of biogenic hydroxyapatite (BHAP) towards heavy metal ions (Pb, Cu, Ni, Cd, and Zn) is compared with functionalized BHAP powders with caffeic acid (CA) and 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (3,4-DHBA). The functionalization of the BHAP with either CA or 3,4-DHBA is indicated by the appearance of the colored powders due to the formation of the interfacial charge transfer (ICT) complexes. The detailed characterization of as-prepared and functionalized BHAP samples was performed using transmission electron microscopy, reflection spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and determination of zeta potential. All three sorbents clearly displayed preferential sorption of Pb ions when the total concentration of multi-component equimolar solutions of heavy metal ions is high. It should be emphasized that the sorption capacity of functionalized BHAP with either CA or 3,4-BHAP was found to be higher, up to 60%, compared to as-prepared BHAP without the decrease of selectivity towards Pb ions. © 2019, © 2019 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

AB  - Surface modification of Al2O3 powders, prepared using reproducible sol-gel synthetic route with small colorless organic molecules, induces charge transfer complex formation and the appearance of absorption in the visible spectral region. Comprehensive microstructural characterization involving transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherms, revealed that γ-crystalline alumina powders consist of mesoporous particles in the size range from 0.1 to 0.3 μm, with specific surface area of 54.8 m2/g, and pore radius between 3 and 4 nm. The attachment of catecholate-type of ligands (catechol, caffeic acid, gallic acid, dopamine and 2,3-dihydroxy naphthalene), salicylate-type of ligands (salicylic acid and 5-amino salicylic acid), and ascorbic acid, to the surface such γ-Al2O3 particles leads to the formation of colored powders and activates their absorption in visible-light spectral region. To the best of our knowledge, similar transformation of an insulator (Al2O3), with the band gap energy of 8.7 eV, into a semiconductor-like hybrid material with tunable optical properties has not been reported in the literature before. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations with periodic boundary conditions were performed in order to estimate the energy gaps of various inorganic/organic hybrids. The calculated values compare well with the experimental data. The good agreement between the calculated and experimentally determined band gaps was found, thus demonstrating predictive ability of the theory when proper model is used.

AB  - The visible-light-responsive inorganic-organic hybrid was prepared by surface modification of commercial TiO2 powder (Degussa P25) with 4-chlorophenol (4-CP). The optical absorption of the hybrid material is red-shifted compared to unmodified TiO2 powder due to the surface charge transfer complex (CTC) formation. The experimental results are supported by the density functional theory (DFT) calculations of the corresponding model cluster. The calculated electronic excitation spectrum is in agreement with the measured reflection spectrum of surface-modified TiO2 powder with 4-CP. The paramagnetic species, generated in the unmodified and surface-modified TiO2 powders upon excitation with ultraviolet and visible light, were identified using low-temperature electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. The formation of trapped electrons (Ti(III) centers) and the persistent oxygen-centered organic radicals indicated the photoinduced electron transfer from the chemisorbed 4-chlorophenol to the conduction band of TiO2. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.
