Eco-Friendly Biosynthesis of Silver Nanoparticles using Citrus limon Extract for Mosquito-Repellent and Antimicrobial Fabric Applications
Developing eco-friendly mosquito-repellent fabrics using biosynthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from natural ingredients has attracted significant interest. Mosquito attraction is influenced by carbon dioxide exhalation and body odors caused by bacterial activity on sweat. This study presents a novel approach to synthesizing AgNPs using Citrus limon (lemon leaves) extract through a bio-reduction process with an aqueous solution of silver nitrate (AgNO(3)). The nanoparticles were...

Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy as a Low-Cost Alternative for the Indirect Detection of Glyphosate-Based Products

#SAS #Spectroscopy #SERS #RoundUp #Glyphosate #Raman
Abstract: Commercial glyphosate-based herbicides are widely used in agriculture. They can be environmental contaminants and may pose a risk to human health through water and the consumption of agricultural products. However, methods for detecting glyphosate in different matrices are expensive and tedious procedures because it is a challenging molecule to detect. Therefore, in this study, we employed surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) as a sensitive, simple, and rapid method to indirectly detect glyphosate in commercial glyphosate-based products with the ninhydrin reaction. The glyphosate-ninhydrin reaction product exhibits a band at approximately 567 nm in the visible light spectrum, and Raman analysis reveals two distinct peaks at 660 and 790 cm−1 in the standard. This confirms that the peaks are consistent with commercial glyphosate-based products and directly related to the concentration of glyphosate. The proposed SERS method may be practical for analyzing environmental samples with relatively high concentrations when compared to regulated levels in some matrices or to those reported in other scientific studies. Although its application is mainly geared toward detection in high ranges, it is a functional method that can be adjusted to improve its sensitivity and adapt to different analytical conditions. Our results provide an effective strategy for detecting this pollutant, which is crucial for monitoring, controlling, and preventing population exposure. A reliable and straightforward glyphosate detection method can thus support environmental safety and public health.

## Enhanced Electrochemical Performance of Nitrogen-Doped Graphene Aerogels with Embedded Silver Nanoparticles for Supercapacitor Applications
**Abstract:** This paper details a novel methodology for enhancing the electrochemical performance of graphene aerogels (GAs) utilized in supercapacitor devices through a tandem doping and deposition process. Specifically, we introduce a scalable and reproducible method for nitrogen doping of graphene followed by the in-situ deposition of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) stabilized by organic polymer templates. This synergistic approach significantly improves the electric double-layer capacitance, rate capability, and cycling stability compared to pristine or individually modified GAs.
