Journal ArticleDOI
Catalytic combustion of volatile organic compounds on gold/cerium oxide catalysts
TL;DR: In this paper, the catalytic activity of the Au/CeO2 system is related to the capacity of gold nanoparticles to weaken the surface CeO 2 bonds adjacent to Au atoms, thus enhancing the reactivity of the CeO2 surface capping oxygen which is involved in the volatile organic compounds oxidation through a Mars van Krevelen reaction mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Al-doped ZnO for highly sensitive CO gas sensors
Mokhtar Hjiri,L. El Mir,L. El Mir,Salvatore Leonardi,Alessandro Pistone,L. Mavilia,Giovanni Neri +6 more
TL;DR: Al-doped ZnO (AZO) nanoparticles have been prepared using a modified sol-gel technique as discussed by the authors, and as-prepared AZO nanoparticles were annealed at 400°C, and their morphologies and microstructural characteristics were investigated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and x-ray powder diffraction (XRD).
Journal ArticleDOI
Graphene quantum dots for cancer targeted drug delivery.
Daniela Iannazzo,Alessandro Pistone,Marina Salamò,Signorino Galvagno,Roberto Romeo,Salvatore V. Giofrè,Caterina Branca,Giuseppa Visalli,Angela Di Pietro +8 more
TL;DR: A biocompatible and cell traceable drug delivery system Graphene Quantum Dots (GQD) based, for the targeted delivery of the DNA intercalating drug doxorubicin (DOX) to cancer cells, is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated ketones to α,β-unsaturated alcohols on gold-supported catalysts
Candida Milone,R. Ingoglia,Alessandro Pistone,Giovanni Neri,Francesco Frusteri,Signorino Galvagno +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the catalytic properties of gold-supported catalysts for the liquid phase reduction of α,β-unsaturated ketones to the corresponding unsaturated alcohols were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wet air oxidation of p-coumaric acid over promoted ceria catalysts
TL;DR: In this article, the catalytic wet air oxidation (WAO) of p -coumaric acid (PCA) has been investigated over Fe- and Zn-promoted ceria catalysts.
