The sensing platform comprises a direct-type immunoassay involving the selective interaction of PSA with anti-PSA. The surface morphology and analytical performance of the modified SPCE were characterized through relevant instrumentations. The changes in the voltammetric reduction current of AgNPs at 0.11 V in the sensor electrode was correlated to the PSA concentration. Under optimum conditions, the fabricated immunosensor exhibited a sensitive response to PSA with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.27 ng mL−1 and a dynamic calibration range of 0.75–100.0 ng mL−1. We demonstrated that the participation of AgNPs along with GO modification contribute to the desired signal amplification and sensitive detection of PSA. It is anticipated that the proposed immunosensor can serve as a biomarker and potentially be utilized for the real sample quantification of PSA.]]> Tue 05 Jul 2022 13:29:39 AEST ]]> Tailored PEDOT:PSS hole transport layer for higher performance in perovskite solar cells: Enhancement of electrical and optical properties with improved morphology https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:46133 Thu 30 Mar 2023 17:38:21 AEDT ]]> A comparative evaluation of physicochemical properties and photocatalytic efficiencies of cerium oxide and copper oxide nanofluids https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39963 Thu 30 Jun 2022 16:35:31 AEST ]]> Non-Enzymatic Amperometric Glucose Sensor Based on Carbon Nanodots and Copper Oxide Nanocomposites Electrode https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:41026 Thu 21 Jul 2022 12:22:20 AEST ]]> Recent progress in the abatement of hazardous pollutants using photocatalytic TiO2-based building materials https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40482 Thu 14 Jul 2022 08:46:09 AEST ]]> Facile use of silver nanoparticles-loaded alumina/silica in nanofluid formulations for enhanced catalytic performance toward 4-nitrophenol reduction https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44455 Thu 13 Oct 2022 15:15:23 AEDT ]]> Polyethylene glycol coated magnetic nanoparticles: hybrid nanofluid formulation, properties and drug delivery prospects https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38568 2O4, CoFe2O4 and Fe3,O4) coated with PEG for MNF formulation and evaluated the loading/release efficacy of doxorubicin (DOX), an anticancer drug. We have presented in detail the drug loading capacity and the time-dependent cumulative drug release of DOX from PEG-coated MNPs based MNFs. Specifically, we have selected three different MNPs (NiFe2O4, CoFe2O4 and Fe3O4) coated with PEG for the MNFs and compared their variance in the loading/release efficacy of DOX, through experimental results fitting into mathematical models. DOX loading takes the order in the MNFs as CoFe2O4 > NiFe2O4 > Fe3O4. Various drug release models were suggested and evaluated for the individual MNP based NFs. While the non-Fickian diffusion (anomalous) model fits for DOX release from PEG coated CoFe2O4, PEG coated NiFe2O4 NF follows zero-order kinetics with a slow drug release rate of 1.33% of DOX per minute. On the other hand, PEG coated NiFe2O4 follows zero-order DOX release. Besides, several thermophysical properties and magnetic susceptibility of the MNFs of different concentrations have been studied by dispersing the MNPs (NiFe2O4, CoFe2O4 and Fe3O4) in the base fluid at 300 K under ultrasonication. This report on the DOX loading/release capability of MNF will set a new paradigm in view that MNF can resolve problems related to the self-heating of drug carriers during mild laser treatment with its thermal conducting properties.]]> Thu 04 Nov 2021 13:58:14 AEDT ]]> A β-cyclodextrin modified graphitic carbon nitride with au co-catalyst for efficient photocatalytic hydrogen peroxide production https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38378 2O2) production has attracted considerable attention as a renewable and environment-friendly method to replace other traditional production techniques. The performance of H2O2 production remains limited by the inertness of graphitic carbon nitride (CN) towards the adsorption and activation of O2. In this work, a photocatalyst comprising of β-cyclodextrin (ß-CD)-modified CN with supporting Au co-catalyst (Au/β-CD-CN) has been utilized for effective H2O2 production under visible light irradiation. The static contact angle measurement suggested that β-CD modification increased the hydrophobicity of the CN photocatalyst as well as its affinity to oxygen gas, leading to an increase in H2O2 production. The rate of H2O2 production reached more than 0.1 mM/h under visible-light irradiation. The electron spin resonance spectra indicated that H2O2 was directly formed via a 2-electron oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) over the Au/β-CD-CN photocatalyst.]]> Thu 02 Sep 2021 12:42:32 AEST ]]> Interface modification using a post-treatment-free heteropolyacid for effective charge selective bilayer formation in perovskite solar cells https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40144 Thu 02 Nov 2023 13:44:33 AEDT ]]> Hybrid Electrocatalytic Nanocomposites Based on Carbon Nanotubes/ Nickel Oxide/Nafion toward an Individual and Simultaneous Determination of Serotonin and Dopamine in Human Serum https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49704 Mon 29 May 2023 13:00:55 AEST ]]> Materials design and optimization for next-generation solar cell and light-emitting technologies https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39296 Mon 29 Jan 2024 18:47:28 AEDT ]]> Properties of Al2O3-MWCNT/radiator coolant hybrid nanofluid for solar energy applications https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52854 Mon 29 Jan 2024 18:38:31 AEDT ]]> Nanoscale control of grain boundary potential barrier, dopant density and filled trap state density for higher efficiency perovskite solar cells https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40999 Mon 29 Jan 2024 17:56:18 AEDT ]]> Efficient photocatalytic degradation of gaseous benzene and toluene over novel hybrid PIL@TiO₂/m-GO composites https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37934 Mon 05 Jul 2021 13:49:57 AEST ]]> Employing PCBTDPP as an efficient donor polymer for high performance ternary polymer solar cells https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37189 61BM) photoactive system to fabricate highly efficient ternary based bulk heterojunction polymer solar cells (PSCs).
