ON-SITE DETECTION OF METAL IONS, METAL AND NANOPARTICULATE COMPLEXES BY NANOANALITICAL STRATEGIES BASED ON GRAPHENE AND QUANTUM CARBON POINTS

Operation co-funded by EU cohesion policy (European Regional Development Fund (ERDF)) under the programme Multi-regional Spain - ERDF (2014ES16RFOP002), managing authority: Subdirección General de Gestión del FEDER, de la Dirección General de Fondos Europeos del Ministerio de Hacienda.. The source names no beneficiary for this operation. Location: Pontevedra Province (NUTS ES114); Spain. Budget: total eligible expenditure EUR 55,660; EU co-financing EUR 44,528 (co-financing rate 80%), as stated by the source. Runs 2016-01-01 to 2018-12-31.

Summary from Kohesio (English machine translation by the source): The ELEMENTAL SPECIATION AND METALOMIC REPRESENTATIVE INTERESTS INterdisciplinary STUDY CHANGES PERMITED TO INTERPRET THE COMPORTATION OF THE ELEMENTS TRADE IN NATURAL SYSTEMS. THE PROJECT PROJECT EXPLORE TO TRAVEL OF STRATEGIC DIFFERENTS, the POSIBILITIES THAT ONE TIPS OF NANOMATERIALS BASED IN CARBON, -GRAFENO AND Quantic CARBON POINTS-, FOR THE CHEMICAL SPECIFICATION OF METALIC IONES, METALIC COMPLEMENTS and nanoparticulates WITH ENORME IMPLICATIONS IN DIFFERENT AREAS AS ENVIRONMENTAL, food, TOXICOLOGY, ETC. If it is good to use extended use CENTRALIZATED EQUIPMENT WITH ELEVATE ANALYTICAL PRESTATIONS TO BELIEVE THE SPECIATION ANALISIS, THE NECESITY OF DISPONER OF ON-SITE MEASURES, SENCILLES, RAPIDOS, SENSIBLE, SERVICE, SERVICES AND RESPECTS WITH THE ENVIRONMENT. THE DIFFERENT BIOAVAILABILITY AND TOXICITY OF THE DISSOLVED FRACTION OF TRACE METALS AND THE NANOPARTICULATE FRACTION REQUIRES THE INVESTIGATION OF NEW STRATEGIES TO OVERCOME CHALLENGES SUCH AS LOW CONCENTRATIONS AND THE DIFFICULTY OF DIFFERENTIATING BOTH FRACTIONS. IN THE FIRST PART OF THE PROJECT, THESE PROBLEMS WILL BE ADDRESSED BY MICROEXTRACCION TECHNIQUES IN SOLID PHASES WITH HIGH ADSORTIVE CAPACITY BASED ON GRAPHENE AND CONFIGURED IN DIFFERENT FORMATS (NANOLAMINS DISPERSED IN LIQUIDS, STACKED GRAPHENE OXIDE MEMBRANES) IN COMBINATION WITH TOTAL REFLEXION X-RAY FLUORESCENCE SPECTROMETRY. quantic CARBON POINTS (CARBON DOTS, CDS) CONSTITUY A recent class of nanostructured FLUORESCENT MATERIAL, which can be synthesised FACILMENT TO PART OF SECOND AND NATURAL PRECURSORS AS CARBOHYDRATS, PRESENTING ADEMAS UNDER TOXICITY. THESE SYSTEMS HAVE AROUSED INCREASING INTEREST FOR USE AS OPTIONAL SENSORS. THE SECOND PART OF THE PROJECT WILL BE DEDICATED TO THE PREPARATION OF FLUORESCENT NANOSENSORS BASED ON CARBON QUANTUM POINTS AND USED IN DIFFERENT PLATFORMS FOR THE DETECTION OF METAL SPECIES. DIFFERENT SENSOR SYSTEMS BASED ON CDS WILL BE DESIGNED USING LIQUID PHASE FLUORESCENCE MEASUREMENTS USING CONVENTIONAL [shortened; the full text is on the Kohesio page]
