Saibal Ghosh, Shouvik Mahanty, Sristi Das, Shreeya Purkait, Gopala Krishna Darbha, Raktim Pal, Santanu Majumder
Journal of Cluster Science, 2026
Selenium (Se) is an essential micronutrient with well-documented biological importance and diverse functional roles. Organic and elemental nanoforms of Se demonstrate greater reactivity, higher bioavailability, and lower toxicity compared to inorganic forms. This study proposes the biosynthesis of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) using a soil-borne bacterium (Bacillus cereus). The synthesis of SeNPs through rhizospheric bacteria isolated from mica-rich agricultural soil is more environmentally friendly and cost-effective than conventional chemical synthesis methods. The synthesized nanoparticles were purified, dried, and initially characterized by UV-VIS spectroscopy, which showed a prominent peak at 282 nm, a characteristic feature of SeNPs. The crystalline phases were further confirmed by matching the XRD results with the JCPDS reference code 06–0362. Surface characterization was carried out using FTIR and XPS analyses, and the FE-SEM and TEM imaging confirmed predominantly hexagonal nanoparticles with an average diameter of 43.2 ± 21.6 nm (TEM) and 43 ± 224 nm (SEM). The findings highlight the potential of this biosynthesized approach for producing nanoscale SeNP with desirable structural properties. Future studies will focus on evaluating the stability, biological activity, and agricultural or biomedical applications of the synthesized SeNPs.
Fabrication of Engineered n-n La-TiO2@NH2-MIL-(101)Fe/Fe2O3 Electrocatalyst and Its Potential Application for Electrocatalytic Reduction of Cr(VI)

Chemistryselect, 2025
Electrocatalytic reduction offers a sustainable strategy for remediating toxic pollutants by converting them into less harmful forms. In this study, an n‐n type NH 2 ‐MIL‐(101)Fe/Fe 2 O 3 heterostructure was developed as an efficient electrocatalyst for Cr(VI) reduction in both acidic (0.01 M HCl) and alkaline (10 −5 M NaOH) solutions. La‐doped TiO 2 , enriched with oxygen vacancies, acts as an electron reservoir, while NH 2 ‐MIL‐(101)Fe/Fe 2 O 3 provides high surface area and Fe(III) catalytic sites. The conduction band electrons of NH 2 ‐MIL‐(101)Fe/Fe 2 O 3 with energy approximately −1.39 V versus NHE, enable thermodynamically favorable Cr(VI) reduction. A two‐electrode setup with 10 mg catalyst per electrode and 1.4 V DC bias achieved ∼ 92% Cr(VI) removal (1 ppm) in 4 h under acidic conditions, without water splitting. XPS confirmed Cr(OH) 3 and Cr 2 O 3 formation; however, Cr(OH) 3 passivation limited efficiency, especially under alkaline conditions (∼34% reduction). UV–vis analysis revealed that Cr(III) and Fe 3+ enhance HCrO 4 − absorbance at ∼350 nm, complicating quantification. A ln[Cr(III):Cr(VI)]‐based calibration was proposed, but is valid only for fixed total Cr. Thus, ion chromatography is recommended for accurate speciation. This study establishes the material's promise for Cr(VI) remediation and highlights key challenges in environmental sensing.
Whispers in the mangroves: Unveiling the silent impact of potential toxic metals (PTMs) on Indian Sundarbans fungi
Shouvik Mahanty, Kirthana Pillay, Emilie A. Hardouin, Demetra Andreou, Marin Cvitanović, Gopala Krishna Darbha, Sukhendu Mandal, Punarbasu Chaudhuri, Santanu Majumder
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2024
This study investigates sediment samples from the Indian Sundarbans' mangrove habitat, where most samples were alkaline and hypersaline, except for one acidic sample. Elemental analysis revealed poor sediment quality, with elevated Enrichment Factors (2.20–9.7), Geo-accumulation indices (−2.19–1.19), Contamination Factors (0.61–3.18), and Pollution Load Indices (1.04–1.32). Toxic metal ions, including Pb, Cu, Ni, Cd, Zn, and Cr, were identified as key contributors to compromised sediment quality. These metals inhibit crucial sediment enzymes, such as CMC-cellulase, β-glucosidase, aryl sulfatase, urease, and phosphatases, essential for nutrient cycling and organic matter decomposition. A negative correlation was found between heavy metals and biodiversity, as indicated by the Shannon index, and a similar trend was observed with fungal load. The study highlights the adverse effects of persistent trace metals on the fungal community, potentially disrupting the mangrove ecosystem and suggests using manglicolous fungi as biological indicators of environmental health. • PTMs Pb, Cu, Ni, Cd, Zn, Cr in sediment with Pollution Load indices of 1.04–1.32 • PTMs inhibit vital soil enzymes. • Chytridiomycota was the most dominant phyla (S4, 62.2 %). • Fungal load CFU/g of sediment highest in S1: 336 × 10 2 ± 13.95 CFU/g • Heavy metals correlate negatively with biodiversity and fungal load in mangrove habitats.
A review on nanomaterial-based SERS substrates for sustainable agriculture
Shouvik Mahanty, Santanu Majumder, Richard Paul, Ramin Boroujerdi, Eugenia Valsami-Jones, Christian Laforsch
Science of the Total Environment, 2024
The agricultural sector plays a pivotal role in driving the economy of many developing countries. Any dent in this economical structure may have a severe impact on a country's population. With rising climate change and increasing pollution, the agricultural sector is experiencing significant damage. Over time this cumulative damage will affect the integrity of food crops and create food security issues around the world. Therefore, an early warning system is needed to detect possible stress on food crops. Here we present a review of the recent developments in nanomaterial-based Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) substrates which could be utilized to monitor agricultural crop responses to natural and anthropogenic stress. Initially, our review delves into diverse and cost-effective strategies for fabricating SERS substrates, emphasizing their intelligent utilization across various agricultural scenarios. In the second phase of our review, we spotlight the specific application of SERS in addressing critical food security issues. By detecting nutrients, hormones, and effector molecules in plants, SERS provides valuable insights into plant health. Furthermore, our exploration extends to the detection of contaminants, chemicals, and foodborne pathogens within plants, showcasing the versatility of SERS in ensuring food safety. The cumulative knowledge derived from these discussions illustrates the transformative potential of SERS in bolstering the agricultural economy. By enhancing precision in nutrient management, monitoring plant health, and enabling rapid detection of harmful substances, SERS emerges as a pivotal tool in promoting sustainable and secure agricultural practices. Its integration into agricultural processes not only augments productivity but also establishes a robust defence against potential threats to crop yield and food quality. As SERS continues to evolve, its role in shaping the future of agriculture becomes increasingly pronounced, promising a paradigm shift in how we approach and address challenges in food production and safety.

Environmental Quality Management, 2023
Reduction in air pollution level was prime observation during COVID‐19 lockdown globally. Here, the study was conducted to assess the impact of lockdown on the elemental profile of PM10 in ambient aerosol to quantify the elemental variation. To quantify the variation, phase‐wise sampling of air pollutants was carried out using the gravimetric method for PM10, while NO2 and SO2 were estimated through the chemiluminescence and fluorescent spectrometric method respectively. The elemental constituents of PM10 were carried out using an Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometer and their source apportionment was carried out using the Positive Matrix Factorization model. The results showed that PM10, NO2 and SO2 reduced by 86.97%, 83.38%, and 88.60% respectively during the lockdown sampling phase. The highest mean elemental concentration reduction was found in Mn (97.47%) during the lockdown. The inter‐correlation among the pollutants exhibited a significant association indicating that they originate from the same source. The metals like Mn and Cu were found at a higher concentration during the lockdown phase corresponding to vehicular emissions. The comparative analysis of the elemental profile of PM10 concluded that the lockdown effectuated in reduction of the majority of elements present in an aerosol enveloping metropolitan like Kolkata.

Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2022
Microbial biodeterioration has been an important concern for concrete buildings’ durability over time. This study primarily emphasizes on the fungal biodeterioration of concrete and the effectiveness of silicon dioxide nanocoating on concrete in inhibiting fungal growth. A nanosilica coating was optimised and applied on concrete cube surface that was in turn infected with Aspergillus tamarii and monitored physical, mechanical, chemical as well as visual changes for a period of six months. The visual analysis included colour changes, Stereo Microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) which showed a considerable change on the surface deterioration. Weight loss showed positive in all the concrete specimens (2.08% for biodeteriorated cubes and 2.13% for nanocoated cubes) whereas compressive strength that increased, 35.01% in nanocoated concrete cubes and 24.72% in biodeteriorated cubes. The chemical analysis included pH change in media, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy (EDXRF) which showed that leaching of calcium ions from the concrete in biodeteriorated cubes was higher than that of nanocoated cubes. Altogether the efficacy of silicon oxide nanocoating against biodeterioration of concrete by Aspergillus tamarii was concluded to be positive.
