RESUMEN
Recent investigations were shifted this trend toward exploring the biomedical applicability of CDs, relevant to chronic diseases. Herein, a systematic approach is demonstrated for studying the effect of variation in the surface passivation of CDs for tuning its optical character and biological performance. Alginate and pectin were successfully clustered oxygen-surface passivated CDs, while, chitin was used to nucleate nitrogen-surface passivated CDs. Pectin-treated with base (4.1 ± 1.8 nm) and chitin-treated acid (3.5 ± 1.7 nm) were ingrained the smallest O-surface passivated CDs and N-surface passivated CDs, respectively. However, N-surface passivated CDs were shown with the highest optical activity. CDs colloids prepared from alginate, pectin & chitin, resulted in reduction of tumor cell viability percentage to be 80.8%, 74.0% & 69.0% respectively. O-surface passivated CDs nucleated from alginate showed the highest anti-proliferative effects. Moreover, O-surface passivated CDs (from alginate) showed the supremacy in inhibition of inflammation, while, increasing of its concentration ten times resulted in significant increment in inhibition percent to be 28% & 42%, using 1 µg/mL & 10 µg/mL, respectively. In summarization, it could be decided that, compared to N-surface passivated CDs (from chitin), O-surface passivated CDs (from alginate) showed excellency in application as a concurrent anti-inflammatory/antitumor drug, to be applied as a potential therapeutical reagent for treatment of inflammation, in production of vaccines, immune-therapeutics, and immune-suppressive drugs.
RESUMEN
A comparative study is proposed to show the effect of variation in the heteroatoms in the main skeleton of CQDs proveniences, on their affinity for nucleation of CQDs, as anti-inflammatory and anticancer drugs. Heterocyclic-based CQDs sprout was successfully exploited for preparation of three CQDs proveniences, named as; 2-(2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-4,6-dioxo-6,11-dihydro-4H-pyrimido[2,1-b] quinazoline-3-carbonitrile (compound A), 2-(2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-4,6-dioxo-4H,6H-benzo[e]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]oxazine-3-carbonitrile (compound S) and 2-(2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-4,6-dioxo-4H,6H-benzo[e]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3] thiazine-3-carbonitrile (compound T). Chemical formulas of CQDs proveniences & CQDs were verified via FTIR, 1HNMR, 13CNMR & XRD. Particle size of TM-CQDs, A-CQDs, S-CQDs & T-CQDs were estimated to be 3.7 ± 1.4, 4.6 ± 1.6, 5.9 ± 1.6 nm and 3.0 ± 1.3 nm, respectively. All of CQDs proveniences & CQDs were examined for their affinity as anti-inflammatory drugs via Griess assay. CQDs ingrained from TM (TM-CQDs) were detected with the highest NO inhibition% by increasing its concentration from 10 up to 100 µM to be 40 % to 89 %, respectively. Moreover, their anti-tumor performance against MCF-7: breast Adenocarcinoma cell line was approved via sulforhodamine B assay, whereas, IC50 was evaluated for TM-CQDs, A-CQDs, S-CQDs and T-CQDs to be 38.16, 36.09, 100 and 100 µg/ml, respectively.

RESUMEN
To effectively remove pharmaceuticals, nitroaromatic compounds, and dyes from wastewater, an efficient multifunctional material was created based on silver nanoparticles (Ag) and MIL-125-NH2 (MOF) immobilized on viscose fibers (VF) as a support substrate. Firstly, silver nanoparticles (Ag) were immobilized on the surface of viscose fibers (VF) via in situ synthesis using trisodium citrate (TSC) as a reducing agent to create (VF-Ag). Then, VF and VF-Ag were decorated with the titanium metal-organic framework MIL-125-NH2 (MOF) to create VF-MOF and VF-Ag-MOF. The influence of VF-Ag, VF-MOF, and VF-Ag-MOF on the sonocatalytic or sonophotocatalytic degradation of sulfa drugs was investigated. The results show that VF-Ag-MOF showed excellent sonocatalytic and sonophotocatalytic activity towards the degradation of sulfa drugs compared to VF-Ag and VF-MOF. Furthermore, sonophotodegradation showed a dramatic enhancement in the efficiency of degradation of sulfa drugs compared to sonodegradation. The sonophotodegradation degradation percentage of sulfanilamide, sulfadiazine, and sulfamethazine drugs in the presence of VF-Ag-MOF was 65, 90, and 95 after 45 min of ultrasonic and visible light irradiation. The catalytic activity of VF-Ag, VF-MOF, and VF-Ag-MOF was evaluated through the conversion of p-nitrophenol (4-NP) to p-aminophenol (4-AP). The results demonstrate that VF-Ag-MOF had the highest catalytic activity, followed by VF-Ag and VF-MOF. The conversion percentage of 4-NP to 4-AP was 69%. The catalytic or photocatalytic effects of VF-Ag, VF-MOF, and VF-Ag-MOF on the elimination of methylene blue (MB) dye were investigated. The results demonstrate that VF-Ag-MOF showed high efficiency in removing the MB dye through the reduction (65%) or photodegradation (71%) after 60 min. VF-Ag-MOF composites structure-activity relationships represent that doping within silver NPs enhanced the photocatalytic activity of MIL-125-NH2, which could be explained as follows: (i) Due to the formation of a Schottky barrier at the junction between MIL-125-NH2 and Ag NPs, the photogenerated electrons in the conduction band of MIL-125-NH2 were supposed to be quickly transferred to the valence band of the Ag NPs, and subsequently, the electrons were transferred to the conduction band of Ag NPs. This considerable electron transferring process, which is reported as Z scheme heterojunction, can efficiently suppress the recombination of electron/hole pairs in VF-Ag-MIL-125-NH2 composites. (ii) Sufficient separation between the photogenerated charge carriers (holes and electrons) and avoiding their recombination enhanced the photocatalytic activity of composites.

Polymer dots (PDs) ingrained from biopolymers are characterized by their biocompatibility & non-toxicity to be superiorly applicable for biomedicines. The point of novelty in the current study is to focus on the effect of Maillard reaction for conjugation of chitosan with glucose to enhance the affinity of chitosan as a biological resource of PDs. Chitosan-glucose conjugate was firstly prepared by Maillard reaction. PDs were nucleated from chitosan (C1 acidic, 10.6 nm & C2 basic, 11.4 nm) and chitosan-glucose conjugate (C3 acidic, 6.8 nm & C4 basic, 5.7 nm). The affinity of chitosan versus chitosan-glucose conjugate as molecular precursors for PDs as antiviral and anticancer laborers was studied. The synthesized PDs were tested against lung cancer (NSCLC, A549) and the estimated IC50 was 282.4 & 165.4 µg/mL for PDs (C3 & C4) ingrained from chitosan-glucose conjugate. The antiviral action of PDs against Coronavirus (229E) was estimated and the obtained IC50 for C3 & C4 was 43.6 and 19.3 mg/mL, respectively. PDs ingrained from chitosan-glucose conjugate showed higher anticancer and antiviral activities compared to that clustered from chitosan. Consequently, the modification of chitosan via Maillard reaction enhanced the biological affinity of the obtained PDs to be effectively applicable as antitumor and antiviral laborers.

The application of newly formulated beads from copper-benzenetricarboxylate (Cu-BTC), polyacrylonitrile (PAN), and chitosan (C), Cu-BTC@C-PAN, C-PAN, and PAN, for the removal of phenolic chemicals from water, is described in the current paper. Phenolic compounds (4-chlorophenol (4-CP) and 4-nitrophenol (4-NP)) were adsorbed using beads and the adsorption optimization looked at the effects of several experimental factors. The Langmuir and Freundlich models were used to explain the adsorption isotherms in the system. A pseudo-first and second-order equation is performed for describing the kinetics of adsorption. The obtained data fit (R2 = 0.999) supports the suitability of the Langmuir model and pseudo-second-order kinetic equation for the adsorption mechanism. Cu-BTC@C-PAN, C-PAN, and PAN beads' morphology and structure were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). According to the findings, Cu-BTC@C-PAN has very high adsorption capacities of 277.02, and 324.74 mg g-1, for 4-CP and 4-NP, respectively. The Cu-BTC@C-PAN beads showed 2.55 times higher adsorption capacity than PAN in the case of 4-NP, but in the case of 4-CP, it was higher by 2.64 times.

Chlorophyll-a as pigments, exist in the green organelles for plants that act in photosynthesis. Different studies were considered with demonstration of an effective separation technique of Chlorophyll-a without decomposition; however, the reported methods were disadvantageous with expensiveness and low quantum yield. The current work uniquely represents an investigative method for the separation of Chlorophyll-a from spinach extract using cellulosic hybrids based on ZIF-8 @cellulosic fibers (Zn-zeolitic imidazolate frameworks@cellulosic fibers) as a cost effective and recyclable absorbents. To obtain hybrids, ZIF-8 was in-situ prepared over the cellulosic fibers (bamboo, modal and cotton). The untreated and treated fibers were well characterized via FTIR, SEM, EDX, XRD, in order to approve the successive impregnation of ZIF-8. Whereas, the microscopic images showed that, microcrystalline ZIF-8 rods with length of 1.3-4.4 µm were grown over the cellulosic fibers. The obtained hybrids and the untreated fibers were exploited in the separation of Chlorophyll-a via the adsorption/desorption process. The chlorophyll-adsorption was followed Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second order model. The Langmuir maximum capacities of Chlorophyll-a onto hybrids were followed the order of ZIF-8@cotton (583.6 mg/g) > ZIF-8@modal (561.3 mg/g) > ZIF-8@bamboo (528.7 mg/g). After incorporation of ZIF-8, the maximum adsorption capacities of cellulosic fibers were enhanced by 1.4-1.9 times. Adsorption of chlorophyll onto the applied hybrids was lowered by 27-28%, after five repetitive washing cycles. The data summarized that; chlorophyll was effectively separated by the synthesized ZIF-8@cellulosic fibers hybrids, whereas, the prepared hybrids showed good reusability for application on wider scaled purposes.

Paracetamol is a ubiquitous drug used by animals and humans but is not fully metabolized within their bodies, and thus often finds its way into raw wastewater. This study represents a new class of adsorbent nanocomposite with high adsorption capacity towards paracetamol removal. Herein, both the kinetic study and the removal of paracetamol from aqueous solutions were investigated in terms of diverse CaCO3/nanocellulose composites with different surface charges and different particle sizes. To fine-tune these parameters, the latter was hydrothermally synthesized by manipulating of three nanocelluloses types. Precisely, micro-crystalline cellulose (MCC), nano-crystalline cellulose (CNC), and nano-fibrillated cellulose (NFC) were used as templates for precipitating CaCO3 particles from CaCl2 solution with the aid of Na2CO3. Results revealed the successful in situ deposition of calcite form of CaCO3 with size varied relying on the base of nanocellulose. For MCC, CNC, and NFC, the size of CaCO3 was disclosed in the range of 850-1200 nm, 350-600 nm, and 150-200 nm, respectively, regarding their surface charge. While the process of paracetamol adsorption was described by Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms, it was observed that, for MCC, the best fit of the experimental data was achieved with the Freundlich model, while the Langmuir model was the most appropriate for CNC and NFC. Also, the highest max adsorption capacities of paracetamol varied respectively to both size and surface charge of hybrid composite used. Among them, MCC/CaCO3 composite exhibited the highest max adsorption capacity at 428 mg g-1, clarifying that the low surface zeta potential of the latter hybrid nanocomposite is responsible for the accumulation of CaCO3 at a bigger size with a higher affinity to adsorb paracetamol with the highest capacity due to its weak repulsion. Results also demonstrated that the material is highly effective and economical for removal of paracetamol and reusability with marginal diminishing in adsorption capacity up to 10% after five reuse cycles.

Pharmaceutical products are used tremendously worldwide and subsequently released into wastewater even at very low concentration caused serious environmental problem due to their high activity. Therefore, the present work focuses on remarkable removal of paracetamol as one from the most used pharmaceutical intermediates, by using porous film based on cellulose acetate@metal organic framework (CA@Ti-MIL-NH2). The film was designed to achieve extreme removal of paracetamol by action of both of adsorption and degradation. Metal organic frame work was directly synthesized and inserted within the pre-prepared porous CA film to obtain porous CA@Ti-MIL-NH2 film. The synthesized films were applied in adsorption and photo-degradation of paracetamol separately and together. Due to the photocatalytic activity of Ti-MIL-NH2, the photo-degradation of paracetamol in visible-light was much effective and considerably high degradation of paracetamol was observed (k1 = 760.0 m-1) comparing to the adsorption (k1 = 160.0 m-1). The overall removal of paracetamol was significantly enlarged from 82.7 mg/g for CA film to 519.1 mg/g for porous CA@Ti-MIL-NH2 film. The used film exhibited quite good reusability and the removal of paracetamol was lowered from 96% to 85% after 5 regeneration cycles. Results of total organic carbon confirmed that paracetamol was fully degraded to CO2 and water.

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection represents a significant health problem and represents a heavy load on some countries like Egypt in which about 20% of the total population are infected. Initial infection is usually asymptomatic and result in chronic hepatitis that give rise to complications including cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. The management of HCV infection should not only be focus on therapy, but also to screen carrier individuals in order to prevent transmission. In the present, molecular detection and quantification of HCV genome by real time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) represent the gold standard in HCV diagnosis and plays a crucial role in the management of therapeutic regimens. However, real time PCR is a complicated approach and of limited distribution. On the other hand, isothermal DNA amplification techniques have been developed and offer molecular diagnosis of infectious dieses at point-of-care. In this review we discuss recombinase polymerase amplification technique and illustrate its diagnostic value over both PCR and other isothermal amplification techniques.

Among the tested compounds, compounds 11 and 12 revealed promising anticancer activity compared to the activity of the commonly used anticancer drug, doxorubicin with inhibiting the expression of uPA.
