Self-assembling tripeptide based hydrogels and their use in removal of dyes from waste-water

Adhikari, Bimalendu, Palui, Goutam, Banerjee, Arindam·2009·Soft Matter

Abstract

A new class of hydrogelators based on synthetic self-assembling N-terminally Boc-protected tripeptides has been developed. A series of five tripeptides have been synthesized to study their self-assembling behavior in aqueous medium. Three of them form thermoreversible translucent gels at basic pH (pH 11.5–13.5). These hydrogels were characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, circular dichroism (CD), small angle X-ray diffraction analysis (SAXRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopic (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopic (TEM) and atomic force microscopic (AFM) studies. These hydrogels can be potentially utilized for the treatment of waste-water and the organic dyes (Rhodamine B, Reactive Blue 4 and Direct Red 80) that are widely used in textile industries can be efficiently removed. Moreover, peptide gelators can be recovered very easily just by changing the pH of the medium.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
