Luminescent Tb-doped Ca-deficient hydroxyapatite/agar for selective adsorption and detection of UO22+ ion

Eco-friendly hydroxyapatite and emerging MXenes for uranium adsorptive uptake

“…(2) RE-doped HAP materials have been found to detect uranium in water. 112,113 Thus, the development of HAP-based materials with bifunctional features of adsorption along with detection is a meaningful research direction.…”

Novel Olefin-Linked Covalent Organic Framework with Multifunctional Group Modification for the Fluorescence/Smartphone Detection of Uranyl Ion

“…Therefore, it is essential to detect UO 2 2+ for eco-environmental protection and, further, adsorb it for uranium recovery. 4,5 In recent years, many new nanomaterials such as metal− organic frameworks, photonic crystals, porous polymers, quantum dots, carbon dots, and metal nanoparticles have been applied for UO 2 2+ sensing; these materials offer unique traits such as operational simplicity and high sensitivity as well as enable on-site detection. 6−11 However, most of these materials can only quantitatively detect UO 2 2+ , while research on multifunctional materials capable of simultaneous detection and adsorption of UO 2 2+ , our strategic interest, is still in the preliminary stage.…”

“…However, uranium mining, spent fuel treatment, and nuclear energy consumption has led to incidents of water, soil, and air contamination. , In water, the hazardous radioactive substance exists mainly as the uranyl ion (UO 2 2+ ), known to induce cellular toxicity, genetic toxicity, and teratogenicity. Therefore, it is essential to detect UO 2 2+ for eco-environmental protection and, further, adsorb it for uranium recovery. , …”
