Tasked with conducting numerous operations such as chemical reduction, biosynthesis, and laser photoionization to account for the generation of nanoparticles. Showcased the sustainability and operational efficiency in electrochemical reduction. The objective was to optimize the formulation of colloidal gold nanoparticles using surface ionization to construct an aqueous electrolyte solution with a composition of: • Hydrogen Tetrachloroaurate, [HAuCl₄ • 3H₂O], as the base agent. • Trisodium Citrate Dihydrate [Na₃C₆H₅O₇ • 2H₂O], as a colloidal stabilizing and reducing agent. The ionization electrochemistry facilitated a fast and sustainable synthesis. Fifteen trials were conducted to designate the optimal parameters including compositional concentrations, distance, current, and the discharge–flow rate. In the end, results showcased the optimal conditions were: • 34mM and 8.9712 mM concentrations of trisodium citrate and hydrogen tetrachloroaurate, respectively. • 1 millimeter distance with a steady discharge flow rate of 0.05 standard litre per minute. The resulting nanoparticles were subjected to testing for efficacy, characterized by Ultraviolet-Visible Spectroscopy [UV-VIS]. Nanoparticles were categorized by scattering peaks and ultraviolet absorbance peaks. The last set of synthesized nanoparticles withheld a 623.9 nanometer maxi-peak wavelength and a 0.580 absorbance peak. Proceeding forward, these nanoparticles would be utilized for increased sensitivity in biosensors through changing the local refractive index due to their high surface energy. Show less

Structured a configuration of ternary nanofibrous scaffolds that emphasized high biocompatibility, biodegradability, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness. Throughout the study, the nanofibrous scaffolds were synthesized through an industrious procedure designated as electrospinning — a high-voltage supply creating an electromagnetism discharge through a capillary insertion with the composition ejecting onto a collection plate through a Taylor Cone discharge. Through this, 8 scaffolds were constructed consisting of 3 biomaterials: • poly(ε-caprolactone), a biodegradable polyester formulated by ring-opening polymerization of the ε-caprolactone using a catalyst — used as a baseline for the nanofibrous scaffolds. • poly(D)-glucosamine, a linear polysaccharide composed of β-linked D-glucosamine and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine — used to augment the biocompatibility with hydroxylapatite. • hydroxylapatite, a naturally occurring mineral of calcium apatite that yields high mechanical strength and enhanced bioactivity. Furthermore, the 8 nanofibrous scaffolds were imaged under surface analysis techniques such as Scanning Electron Microscopy, to analyze surface density, surface area-to-volume correspondence, porosity, mechanical strength, and flexibility through functionalization. Proceeding forward, the scaffolds were further analyzed for potential in cellular cultivation through in-vitro growth. Show less
