SnO nanoparticles (NPs) have been used as reversible high-capacity anode materials in lithium-ion batteries, with reversible capacities reaching 740 mAh·g. However, large SnO NPs do not perform well in charge-discharge cycling. In this work, we report the incorporation of MoS nanosheet (NS) layers with SnO NPs. SnO NPs of ~5 nm in diameter synthesized by a facile hydrothermal precipitation method. Meanwhile, MoS NSs of a few hundreds of nanometers to a few micrometers in lateral size were produced by top-down chemical exfoliation. The self-assembly of the MoS NS layer on the gas-liquid interface was first demonstrated to achieve up to 80% coverage of the SnO NP anode surface. The electrochemical properties of the pure SnO NPs and MoS-covered SnO NP anodes were investigated. The results showed that the SnO electrode with a single-layer MoS NS film exhibited better electrochemical performance than the pure SnO anode in lithium storage applications.

Bacterial detection is crucial for accurate clinical diagnostics and effective environmental monitoring. Particularly, , a pathogenic bacterium, can cause a wide range of infections, including meningitis, bloodstream infections, pneumonia, urinary tract infections, and wound or surgical site infections. Herein, a polypyrrole (PPy) functionalized TiCT -tin dioxide nanoparticle (SnO NPs) nanocomposite-based hybrid capacitive electrode for the electrochemical detection of ATCC 700603 is developed.

Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) has garnered significant attention in the field of flexible optoelectronics due to its unique properties. This study investigates the effect of incorporating tin oxide (SnO) nanoparticles (NPs) with various concentrations (0, 2, 3, 4, and 5 wt%) on structural, optical, and dielectric properties of PVA films synthesized via the solution casting technique. XRD analysis revealed a 28% increase in crystallite size (from 25.

Modulating intracellular nitric oxide (NO) levels offers a promising strategy to enhance tumor cell sensitivity to nanoparticle-based therapies. In this study, we investigated the impact of intracellular NO modulation in prostate cancer cells (PC3) using S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO, a NO donor) and L-nitro arginine methyl ester (l-NAME, a nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor), in combination with cisplatin-loaded zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO/CisPt NPs). These nanoparticles, previously shown to exert selective cytotoxicity against PC3 cells, had their therapeutic performance further enhanced by NO modulation, which led to reduced NOS expression and regulation of inflammatory cytokines.

Background: PANoptosis has been identified as a robust inflammatory cell death pathway triggered upon host defense against invaded pathogens such as bacteria and viruses, however, pathogen-free tumor PANoptosis has not been achieved yet. Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species capable of inducing robust and diverse cell death pathways such as pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis are supposed to be the potential triggers for tumor PANoptosis by ultrasound (US)-controlled sono-piezodynamic therapy.
Methods: S-nitrosothiols (SNO)-zinc peroxide (ZnO)@cyclic dinucleotide (CDN)@mesoporous tetragonal barium titanate (mtBTO) nanoparticles (NZCB NPs) were synthesized by hydrothermal method with subsequent annealing, in situ growth, and finally surface functionalization.

Structural and photocatalytic properties of strontium oxide nanoparticles (SrO NPs), tin oxide nanoparticles (SnO NPs) , and SrO-SnO nanocomposites (SS NCs) synthesized by coprecipitation-sintering method were evaluated. The SS NCs were synthesized by varying the concentration of SnO precursor from 0.2 to 1.
