  Abstract

  Materials which selectively transport molecules along defined paths offer new opportunities for concentrating, processing and sensing chemical and biological agents. Here, we present the use of traveling ionic waves to drive molecular transport and concentration of hydrophilic molecules entrained within a hydrogel. The traveling ionic wave is triggered by the spatially localized introduction of ions, which through a dissipative ion exchange process, converts quaternary ammonium groups in the hydrogel from hydrophilic to hydrophobic. Through a reaction-diffusion process, the hydrophobic region expands with a sharp transition at the leading edge; it is this sharp gradient in hydrophilicity that drives the transport of hydrophilic molecules dispersed within the film. The traveling wave moved up to 450 μm within 30 min, while the gradient length remained 20 μm over this time. As an example of the potential of molecular concentration using this approach, a 70-fold concentration of a hydrophilic dye was demonstrated.

• Specific surface area of titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles influences cyto- and photo-toxicity. Toxicology Xiong, S., Tang, Y., Ng, H. S., Zhao, X., Jiang, Z., Chen, Z., Ng, K. W., Loo, S. C. 2013; 304: 132-40

  Abstract

  The aim of this study is to examine how different specific surface areas of similar-sized titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) particles could influence both cytotoxicity and phototoxicity. TiO(2) particles of different specific surface areas were compared for their toxic effects on RAW264.7 cells in the absence and presence of UV light. From the results, TiO(2) particles with larger specific surface area were found to induce higher cyto- (UV absent) and photo-toxicity (UV activated) to cells after 24h incubation. The observed cytotoxicity from TiO(2) particles with larger surface area could be explained from their interactions with biomolecules. Upon photoactivation, a larger number of hydroxyl radicals were detected from TiO(2) particles with larger surface area, again suggesting a surface area dependent phototoxic effect. On the other hand, pre-adsorbing TiO(2) particles with extracellular proteins were found to decrease toxicity effects.

• Synthesis of nanostructured silver/silver halides on titanate surfaces and their visible-light photocatalytic performance. ACS applied materials & interfaces Tang, Y., Jiang, Z., Deng, J., Gong, D., Lai, Y., Tay, H. T., Joo, I. T., Lau, T. H., Dong, Z., Chen, Z. 2012; 4 (1): 438-46

  Abstract

  Dense and uniform silver halides AgX (X = Cl, Br, I) nanoparticles were successfully fabricated on layered titanate nanowired honeycomb (TNHC) thin films. The growth of AgX nanocrystals was carried out through two steps. Firstly, ion-exchange was employed to incorporate Ag(+) ions into the interlayer of the titanate nanowires. Secondly, hydrogen halide (HX) solution was rapidly injected onto the ion-exchanged silver TNHC surface to generate nanosized AgX particles on TNHC films. The effect of the reaction time, solution pH, and concentration of halide anions on the morphology of the AgX photocatalysts has been studied. Followed by light-irradiation, the optimized Ag/AgX thin films exhibited excellent degradation performance under visible light because of localized surface plasmon resonance effect.
