“…After the deduction of background with the Shirley function, two peaks can be deconvoluted at 707.8 eV and 706.6 eV, respectively. The former was close to the value of Fe in the polarized ionic bonds, such as in Na 3 Fe(CN) 5 NH 3 [13], while the later had the typical value in the metallic bondings, such as in pure Fe metal [14]. For comparison, the XPS graph of a sintered powder sample is also shown in Fig.…”

“…1b, the center of electron binding energy of C 1s is 284.18 eV, and the main peak of the N 1s (Fig. 1d) corelevel spectra is fitted with three components at 402.38, 399.28, and 397.28 eV, signifying the existence of C-N ([Fe (CN) 6 ] 4 À ) in the samples [20]. On the basis of the higherresolution spectra of C 1s, N 1s and Fe 2p, we could conclude that Prussian Blue nanocrystals were successfully synthesized.…”
“…For Fe 2p spectra of the sample (Fig. 3c) 38 In the case of N 1s spectra (Fig. 3d), the peaks of N 1s spectra were tted with three components at 397.6, 399.7 and 401.32 eV, suggesting the existence of C-N in PB NPs together with aminelike (-NH-) and positively charged nitrogen (N + ) structure in yeast.…”
Section: Characterization Of Hollow Pb@yeast Microspheresmentioning
Prussian blue was in situ grown on S. cerevisiae cells to obtain PB@yeast, which exhibited synergistically enhanced activity in dye wastewater treatment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
