Накратко на български

Метални нанопръчици от кобалт, комбинирани със злато или никел, се разработват за откриване на биомаркери и производство на горива. Тези структури помагат за по-ранна диагностика на рака и по-ефективно използване на възобновяемата енергия и въглеродния диоксид.

Hybrid Co-based nanorods for biosensing and catalysis

The H2020 EU Research and Innovation programme identifies energy efficiency, nanotechnologies and biotechnology as important areas of research. In the case of energy efficiency is of great importance to find new strategies to store the intermittence energy generated by the renewable energies. Concerning the area of biotechnology, cancer is one of the leading causes of death, having an incidence of 2.6 million people in Europe in 2012, and causing an estimated annual cost of €126 billion. Thus, detecting this illness at the very early stages would significantly reduce the mortality. Nanoscience and Nanotechnology is expected to have and important incidence in those mentioned research areas. HyCoRod project aimed at tailoring the physical and chemical properties of metallic cobalt nanorods (NR) by combining them with two different metals for two important applications: (i) cobalt-gold for in vitro biodiagnostics and magneto-optical properties (MO) and (ii) cobalt-nickel for magnetically induced catalysis. The first main objective of HyCoRod was to improve the detection limit (up to subfemtomolar range) of analyte molecules, using a magneto-optical based detection method. The second objective was to study the MO properties of Co@Au NRs. The third objective was to evaluate the potential of Ni-containing Co NRs in magnetically induced catalytic reactions for fuel production by reusing the surplus of energy from renewable energies and the CO2 coming from contamination sources. In conclusion, HyCoRod project has achieved to provide the society with a new nanostructured system with the composition of Co@SnNiAu that is envisaged to demonstrate its capability, in the following next experiments, as excellent biomarker sensor. Furthermore, a Co-Ni based nano-object has been already proved as a promising both catalyst and nanoheater for important energy-related catalytic reactions such as CO2 hydrogenation.

Цел на проекта

Multifunctional nanostructured hybrids comprising a magnetic component can respond to the growing demands of a large variety of applications, including but not limited to biotechnology (health issues) and catalysis (energy efficiency processes), identified as relevant for the H2020 EU Research and Innovation programe. HyCoRod is a basic research project, aiming at tailoring the physical and chemical properties of metallic ferromagnetic cobalt nanorods (NRs) by combining them with two different metals, each combination targeting a different application domain: (i) cobalt-gold core-shell for in vitro biosensing (by testing a new patented highly-sensitive biosensor) and fundamental magneto-optical studies and (ii) cobalt-iron/iron carbide dumbbells as well as core-shell NRs for the novel concept of magnetically induced catalysis (Fisher-Tropsch synthesis). The multifaceted planned research spans from nanoparticle chemical synthesis within the host group (K.Soulantika-LPCNO, France), to aqueous transfer and biofunctionalization of nanostructures (1st secondment, W.Parak-CICbiomaGUNE, Spain), and biosensing concepts and measurements (2nd secondment, J.Schotter-AIT, Austria) and on catalysis and magnetically induced heating properties assessment (B.Chaudret, LPCNO), issues in which so far the applicant has no experience. Moreover, the candidate contributes to the bidirectional host-applicant transfer knowledge by providing recognized researchers (P.Vavassori-CICnanoGUNE, Spain) in the field of magneto-optical properties, for which the host group is barely familiarized. Overall, the project offers the possibility to the applicant to become not only a more experienced researcher in the field of nanoscale materials but also to gain a prestigious network of collaborations, thus reinforcing her possibilities to achieve a professional scientific position.
