Peptide Receptor‐Functionalized AuNP‐Embedded Zwitterionic Biopolymeric Nanohydrogel for Electrochemical Sclerostin Sensing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We report an electrochemical biosensor that employs biopanning‐derived affinity peptides as selective receptors on a multifunctional chitosan–zwitterionic–gold nanoparticle (CS–ZI–AuNPs) nanohydrogel interface. The CS–ZI–AuNPs nanohydrogel exhibits antifouling properties, abundant sites for stable peptide immobilization, and efficient electrochemical ...

Evaluating the Impact of Cellulose Nanocrystals on the Performance of Polycarbonate Thin‐Film Nanocomposite Membranes for Treating Oily Wastewater

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A new type of thin‐film nanocomposite (TFN) membrane was synthesized by incorporating cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) into a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) top layer on a polycarbonate (PC) substrate via dip‐coating. The synthesized TFC and TFN membranes (PC/PVA TFC and PC/PVA‐CNC TFN membranes) were evaluated using contact angle measurement, field ...
