Advancing antibiotic detection and degradation: recent innovations in graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) applications.

The uncontrolled release of antibiotics into the environment would be extremely harmful to human health and ecosystems. Therefore, it is in urgent need to monitor the environment and promote the detection and degradation of antibiotics to the relatively harmless by-products to a feasible extent. Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) is a non-metallic n-type semiconductor that can be used for the antibiotic detection and degradation due to its easy synthesis process, excellent chemical stability and unique optical properties. Unfortunately, the utilization of visible light, electron-hole recombination and electron conductivity have hindered its potential applications in the fields of photocatalytic degradation and electrochemical detection. Although previous publications have highlighted the diverse modification methods for the g-C3N4-based materials, the underlying structure-performance relationships of g-C3N4, especially for the detection and degradation of antibiotics, remains to be further explored. In view of this, the current review centered on the recent progress in the modification techniques of g-C3N4, the detection and degradation of antibiotics using the g-C3N4-based materials, as well as the potential antibiotic degradation mechanisms of the g-C3N4-based materials. Additionally, the underlying applications of the g-C3N4-based materials for antibiotic detection and degradation were also prospected. This review would provide a valuable research foundation and the up-to-date information for the g-C3N4-based materials to combat antibiotic pollution in the environment.

The development of screen-printed electrodes modified with gold and copper nanostructures for analysis of gunshot residue and low explosives.

Due to their portability, sensitivity, and ease of use, electrochemical sensors have recently become a popular method for rapid, on-site analysis. This study presents a proof of principle for the application of modified screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs) for the detection of signature metals (Pb, Sb, and Zn) commonly found in gunshot residue (GSR), as well as for the detection of nitrate/nitrite in organic GSR and low explosives. To achieve these two aims, we have examined various electrode surface modifications. For metal detection, SPCEs were modified by electrodeposition of gold to improve sensitivity. GSR samples taken from two types of cartridge cases and shooting-related surfaces were analyzed using the Au-modified SPCEs. For nitrate/nitrite analysis, further electrode surface modifications were carried out by depositing Cu(II) onto the Au-SPCEs to enhance signal through catalytic activity of the copper surfaces. Both unburned and burned forms of black powder samples, as well as burned smokeless powder, were then analyzed using the Cu/Au-SPCEs. In conclusion, due to their low cost and portability, these sensors should prove useful for rapid forensic examination.

Tailoring phases of ferrihydrite/α-Fe2O3@C nanocomposites using syringyl and guaiacyl-rich biomass-derived carbon nanodots for electrochemical application.

Biomass-derived carbon nanodots (CNDs) hold promise as effective reducing agents for metal oxide nanoparticles yet understanding the intricate interplay with CND structure remains challenging. This study explores the impact of lignin types, specifically syringyl (S), and guaiacyl (G) units in CNDs on metal oxide phases and their electrochemical activity toward dopamine oxidation. We design phases of ferrihydrite/α-Fe2O3@C nanocomposites, using hazelnut carbon nanodots (HS-CNDs (S-rich)) and beetroot carbon nanodots (BS-CNDs (G-rich)) via a one-pot hydrothermal technique. Our findings show S units in HS-CNDs promote α-FeOOH/α-Fe2O3@CHS, while G units in BS-CNDs favor α (ß)-FeOOH/α-Fe2O3@CBS. In contrast to α(ß)-FeOOH/α-Fe2O3@CBS, α-FeOOH/α-Fe2O3@CHS exhibits superior electrochemical performance in dopamine oxidation due to its larger electrochemical active surface area, higher absorbance capacity, and shortened electron transfer length. Moreover, α-FeOOH/α-Fe2O3@CHS nanocomposites demonstrate remarkable dopamine selectivity, achieving rapid detection response in 10 s with a low LOD of 4 nM within a broad linear range (0.05-0.3 µM), demonstrating impressive reproducibility (97.5 %), stability (96.4 %), and works in real-time human urine detection with a recovery rate of ranging from 94.57 % and 102.2 %. Therefore, the utilization of biomass-derived CNDs, particularly S and G units-rich CNDs, in tailoring the phases of ferrihydrite/α-Fe2O3@C nanocomposites for electrochemical dopamine detection is promising.

Non-enzymatic cholesterol biosensor: Electrochemical sensing based on peptide-polylactic acid thin film.

Cholesterol is a fundamental lipid prevalent in eukaryotic cell membranes and circulating in the bloodstream bound to lipoproteins. It serves as a precursor to steroid hormones and is regarded as a biomarker for cardiovascular disease and other metabolic disorders. Numerous cholesterol detection methods predominantly rely on enzymes, which suffer from instability, leading to non-cost-effective biosensors with low sensitivity and poor reusability. Therefore, monitoring cholesterol levels with a feasible, rapid, and stable biosensor is critical for diagnosing and treating various disorders. This study aimed to develop a non-enzymatic cholesterol biosensor based on a selected cholesterol recognition peptide as the detection element. Screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPEs) modified with biocompatible poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) porous nanomembranes (NMs) were utilized as support for the covalent immobilization of the peptide. Data obtained from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) demonstrated the peptide's effective binding affinity towards cholesterol, paving the way for its implementation. The determination of cholesterol with the proposed biosensor exhibited a low limit of detection of 6.31 µM with linear responses ranging from 2-15 µM and 20-40 µM. These findings present an alternative method for cholesterol sensing by integrating novel peptides as biorecognition motifs with biocompatible polymeric materials, potentially useful as biocompatible and future point-of-care sensors.

Determination of indole-3-acetic acid using disposable molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensors based on bifunctional monomers.

Stainless steel sheets were coated with carbon ink to obtain disposable carbon electrodes, which were used as supports for moleculary imprinted polymer (MIP) electrochemical sensors by electropolymerizing o-phenylenediamine and o-aminophenol along with indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) as the template. After optimization, the MIP biosensors could be used for sensitive and selective detection of IAA with the limit of quantification of 0.1 µM. Our experimental results showed that stable and reproducible electrochemical responses could be achieved for the disposable MIP biosensors. This approach was successfully used for detection of IAA in different tissues of pea sprouts. This study reveals the potential of MIP electrochemical sensors in practical applications and shrinks the trench between the research and the real world.

Tailoring 3D-printed sensor properties with reduced-graphene oxide: improved conductive filaments.

The development of a tailored filament is reported composed of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and carbon black (CB) in a polylactic acid (PLA) matrix and its use in the production of electrochemical sensors. The electrodes containing rGO showed superior performance when compared with  those prepared in the absence of this material. Physicochemical and electrochemical characterizations of the electrodes showed the successful incorporation of both rGO and CB and an improved conductivity in the presence of rGO (lower resistance to charge transfer). As a proof-of-concept, the developed electrodes were applied to the detection of the forensic analytes TNT and cocaine. The electrodes containing rGO presented a superior analytical performance for both TNT and cocaine detection, showing the lower limit of detection values (0.22 and 2.1 µmol L-1, respectively) in comparison with pure CB-PLA electrodes (0.93 and 11.3 µmol L-1, respectively). Besides, better-defined redox peaks were observed, especially for TNT, as well as increased sensitivity for both molecules.

An aptamer-based electrochemical sensor for the sensitive detection of staphylococcal enterotoxin type A (SEA) is presented. The truncated aptamer AptSEA1.4 used in this work was screened using computational techniques, which reduced the cost of the SELEX screening process. The aptamer-SEA interactions were confirmed by employing circular dichroism (CD) and fluorescence spectroscopy. Afterwards, for developing an electrochemical aptasensor, a fabricated GNR/FTO aptasensor was prepared and characterized using scanning electron microscopy-energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (SEM-EDX), atomic force microscopy (AFM), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and square wave voltammetry (SWV). A detailed investigation of aptamer and SEA interaction in the presence of various experimental conditions was also conducted through SWV and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The aptamer exhibits a strong affinity for SEA, with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 19.93 nM. The aptasensor is sensitive, with a lower limit of detection of 12.44 pg mL-1. It has good stability, repeatability, and specificity and has displayed highly specific and sensitive detection SEA in spiked packaged mixed fruit juice and milk, with a recovery of 95-110%. The aptasensor has high promise for detecting SEA in other food items.

Rapid detection of tertiary butylated hydroquinone in food samples using Mn-MOF@f-CNF composite-modified screen-printed electrode.

Hydroquinone-based organic molecules are often used as unavoidable preservatives in the food industry. Among these additives, tertiary butylated hydroquinone (TBHQ) is widely employed as a preservative in various processed foods. However, the potential health risks associated with the excessive presence of TBHQ in food products have raised significant concerns. To address this pressing issuea novel binder-free composite composed of a manganese metal-organic framework and functionalized carbon nanofibers (Mn-MOF/f-CNF) has been developed as an electrode modifier for the ultrasensitive detection of TBHQ in food samples. The Mn-MOF/f-CNF composite was achieved using the ultrasonication method, revealing a lamellar sheet-like structure of the Mn-MOF and the curly thread-like fibrous structure of f-CNF. The developed Mn-MOF/f-CNF/SPE sensor system resulted in well-defined redox signals for TBHQ detection in a neutral pH solution. Compared to the unmodified SPE system, the modified system showed approximately a 300 mV reduction in overpotential and a twofold increase in peak current signal for TBHQ detection. The Mn-MOF/f-CNF/SPE sensor system showed a linear concentration window of 0.01 to 800 µM with a sensitivity of 6.28 µA µM-1 cm-2 and the obtained detection limit was 1.36 nM. Additionally, the proposed sensor displayed excellent reproducibility and repeatable results with an RSD of less than 5%. The real-time applicability of the Mn-MOF/f-CNF/SPE sensor system was demonstrated using real samples such as potato chips and instant noodles, showing excellent results with a recovery range of 95.1-98.5%.

Graphitic carbon nitride-based electrochemical sensors: A comprehensive review of their synthesis, characterization, and applications.

Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) has garnered much attention as a promising 2D material in the realm of electrochemical sensors. It contains a polymeric matrix that can serve as an economical and non-toxic electrode material for the detection of a diverse range of analytes. However, its performance is impeded by a relatively limited active surface area and inherent instability. Although electrochemistry involving metal-doped g-C3N4 nanomaterials is rapidly progressing, it remains relatively unexplored. The metal doping of g-C3N4 augments the electrochemically active surface area of the resulting electrode, which has the potential to significantly enhance electrode kinetics and bolster catalytic activity. Consequentially, the main objective of this review is to provide insight into the intricacies of synthesizing and characterizing metal-doped g-C3N4.

The present study elucidates the effectiveness of a molecularly imprinted polyacrylonitrile-imbued graphite-base electrode (MAN@G) for the selective detection of folic acid (FA) in food samples. The prime objective of the recognition and quantification of vitamin compounds like FA is the overall quality assessment of vegetables and fruits. The cost-effective, reproducible, and durable MAN@G electrode has been fabricated using acrylonitrile (AN) as the monomer and FA as the template over graphite-base. The characterization of the synthesized MAN@G electrode material has been accomplished by utilizing UV-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). A tri-electrode system based on differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and cyclic voltammetry (CV) techniques was employed to explore the analytical performance of the synthesized electrode. Rigorous analyses divulged that a widespread linearity window could be exhibited by the electrode under an optimized experimental environment, ranging from 20 µM to 400 µM concentrations with an acceptable lower limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) of 18 nM, and 60 nM respectively. Additionally, this electrode exhibits high reproducibility, good stability, and high repeatability, with RSD values of 1.72 %, 1.32 %, and 1.19 %, respectively. The detection efficacy of the proposed electrode has been further examined in food extracts, namely orange, spinach, papaya, soybean, and cooked rice, which endorsed high accuracy compared to the high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method. Moreover, the statistical results obtained from the t-test analysis were also satisfactory for the FA concentrations present in those five samples.

Development of tetravalent antibody-enzyme complexes employing a lactate oxidase and the application to electrochemical immunosensors.

Antibody-enzyme complexes (AECs) are ideal for immunosensing. Although AECs using antibody fragments can be produced by bacterial hosts, their low affinity limits their sensing applications. We have improved the affinity of AECs by combining two antibodies using Catcher/Tag systems; however, it requires multiple antibodies and an enzyme production process. In this study, to realize the production of AECs harboring multiple antibody fragments in a single production process, we report a versatile development method of unique AECs based on a multimeric enzyme structure. Using the homotetrameric enzyme, lactate oxidase (LOx), as a labeling enzyme, tetravalent AECs were developed as an electrochemical immunosensor. Homogeneous tetravalent AECs were successfully fabricated by fusing the anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) variable domain of a heavy chain of heavy chain antibody to the N-terminus of LOx. The prepared AECs bound to EGFR, maintain their enzyme activity, and worked well as sensing elements in electrochemical sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Moreover, tetravalent AECs exhibited higher sensitivity than monovalent AECs because of their avidity. The fabricated AECs were successfully used in a wash-free homogeneous electrochemical detection system combined with magnetic separation. Our findings offer new insights into the applications of the LOx tetrameric enzyme for the fabrication of AECs with tetravalent antibodies, which may serve as scaffolds for immunosensors.

Micro-droplet printed ion-selective membrane sensors for in situ monitoring of marine heavy metal ions.

Fast, accurate, and reliable techniques for marine toxic heavy metal ions (HMI) detection are critical for the ecological environment and human health. One of the fatal drawbacks of traditional ion selective electrochemical sensors is that the modification of electrode cannot be accurately quantified, resulting in poor repeatability of the detection electrode and large error between the multi-electrode detection results. In order to tackle this challenge, this study presents ultra-fine micro-droplet printed electrodes for the in-situ detection of Cd2+, a carcinogenic and toxic HMI commonly found in the ocean. The ion selective membrane casting liquid was dispersed into tiny droplets with a diameter of micron through microfluidic technology, and the microdroplets were precisely arranged on the electrode surface. As a result, the modification error of electrode was reduced to pL level (accurate to 10 pL), which greatly improved the repeatability between electrodes prepared in different batches. The results of experiments with pure electrolyte, interference ions and artificial seawater indicated that the micro-droplet printed sensors possessed excellent properties of accuracy, precision, repeatability, and anti-interference. This novel micro-droplet printed sensor has the potential to capture an accurate picture of nearshore HMI in heterogeneous environments under shock conditions.

Voltammetric and flow amperometric determination of drug guaifenesin in pharmaceutical and biological samples using screen-printed sensor with boron doped diamond electrode.

New voltammetric and flow amperometric methods for the determination of guaifenesin (GFE) using a perspective screen-printed sensor (SPE) with boron-doped diamond electrode (BDDE) were developed. The electrochemical oxidation of GFE was studied on the surface of the oxygen-terminated BDDE of the sensor. The GFE provided two irreversible anodic signals at a potential of 1.0 and 1.1 V (vs. Ag|AgCl|KCl sat.) in Britton-Robinson buffer (pH 2), which was chosen as the supporting electrolyte for all measurements. First, a voltammetric method based on differential pulse voltammetry was developed and a low detection limit (LOD = 41 nmol L-1), a wide linear dynamic range (LDR = 0.1-155 µmol L-1), and a good recovery in the analysis of model and pharmaceutical samples (RSD <3.0 %) were obtained. In addition, this sensor demonstrated excellent sensitivity and reproducibility in the analysis of biological samples (RSD <3.2 %), where the analysis took place in a drop of serum (50 µL) without pretreatment and additional electrolyte. Subsequently, SP/BDDE was incorporated into a flow-through 3D printed electrochemical cell and a flow injection analysis method with electrochemical detection (FIA-ED) was developed, resulting in excellent analytical parameters (LOD = 86 nmol L-1, LDR = 0.1-50 µmol L-1). Moreover, the mechanism of electrochemical oxidation of GFE was proposed based on calculations of HOMO spatial distribution and spectroelectrochemical measurements focused on IR identification of intermediates and products.

Confinement synthesis of few-layer MXene-cobalt@N-doped carbon and its application for electrochemical sensing.

Herein, the few-layer Ti3C2Tx nanosheets loaded zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 nanoplates (Ti3C2Tx-ZIF-67) with a unique structure has been synthesized by surfactant control method, and then is employed as the core of precursor. A thin layer of polydopamine as the shell of precursor covered Ti3C2Tx-ZIF-67 forms a micro-nano reactor, leading to the confinement carbonization process. Consequently, a novel sensing material that few-layer Ti3C2Tx nanosheets loaded Co nanoparticles coated N-doped carbon (Ti3C2Tx-Co@NC) is obtained for the non-enzymatic determination of glucose. Owing to the impressive structure, the established glucose sensor based on Ti3C2Tx-Co@NC/glassy carbon electrode exhibits 0.5-100.0 µM of linear detection range and 66.8 nM of detection limit, which tends to detect low concentration of glucose. The synergistic few-layer Ti3C2Tx nanosheets, Co nanoparticles and NC are considered through a series of control experiments. First, few-layer Ti3C2Tx nanosheets provide a good transport channel for electron transfer, resulting in the lower steric hindrance. Second, Co nanoparticles provide active centers for the electrochemical detection. Third, N-doped carbon with conductivity and hydrophilia plays the role of stabilizing material structure to prevent the fragmentation of Ti3C2Tx and the agglomeration of Co nanoparticles. Such work proposes a confined strategy to develop MXene-ZIF-67-derived nanocomposite with high-performance structure.

Extensive investigations are being conducted on gold nanoparticles focusing on their applications in biosensors, laser phototherapy, targeted drug delivery and bioimaging utilizing advanced detection techniques. In this work, an electrochemical sensor was developed based on graphite carbon nitride supported gold nanoparticles. Carbon nitride supported gold nanoparticles (Au-CN) was synthesized by applying a deposition-precipitation route followed by a chemical reduction technique. The composite system was characterized by X-ray diffraction and X-ray photo electron spectroscopy methods. Electron microscopy analysis confirmed the formation of gold nanoparticles within the size range of 5-15 nm on the carbon nitride support. Carbon nitride supported gold based sensor was employed for the electrochemical detection of iodide ion and l-cysteine. The limit of detection and sensitivity of the sensor was attained 8.9 µM and 0.96 µAµM⁻1cm⁻2, respectively, for iodide ion, while 0.48 µM and 5.8 µAµM⁻1cm⁻2, respectively, was achieved for the recognition of cysteine. Furthermore, a paper-based electrochemical device was developed using the Au-CN hybrid system that exhibited promising results in detecting iodide ions, highlighting its potential for economic and portable device applications.

Nanozyme coating-gated multifunctional COF composite based dual-ratio enhanced dual-mode sensor for highly sensitive and reliable detection of organophosphorus pesticides in real samples.

The reliable detection of organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) in complex matrices remains an enormous challenge due to inevitable interference of sample matrices and testing factors. To address this issue, we designed a nanozyme-coated mesoporous COF with guest molecule loading, and successfully used it to construct a dual-ratio dual-mode sensor through target-regulated signal generation. The multifunctional COF-based composite (MB/COF@MnO2, MCM) featured high loading of methylene blue (MB), oxidase-like MnO2 coatings as gatekeepers, and specific recognition of thiocholine (TCh). TCh, a regulator produced from acetylcholinesterase (AChE)-catalyzed hydrolysis of acetylthiocholine, could decompose MnO2 coatings, triggering the release of abundant MB and oxidation of few o-phenylenediamine (OPD). OPs, strong inhibitors of AChE, could restrain TCh production and MnO2 decomposition, thereby controlling the release of less MB and oxidation of more OPD. This regulation boosted the dual-ratio dual-mode assay of OPs by using the released MB and oxidized OPD in the solution as testing signals, measured by both fluorescent and electrochemical methods. Experimental results demonstrated the sensitive detection of dichlorvos with LODs of 0.083 and 0.026 ng/mL via the fluorescent/electrochemical mode, respectively. This study represented a creative endeavor to develop dual-ratio dual-mode sensors for OPs detection in complex samples, offering high sensitivity, excellent selectivity, and good reliability.

Efficiency of electrochemical immuno- vs. apta(geno)sensors for multiple cancer biomarkers detection.

The interest in biosensors technology has been constantly growing over the last few years. It is still the biggest challenge to design biosensors able to detect two or more analytes in a single measurement. Electrochemical methods are frequently used for this purpose, mainly due to the possibility of applying two or more different redox labels characterized by independent and distinguished electrochemical signals. In addition to antibodies, nucleic acids (aptamers) have been increasingly used as bioreceptors in the construction of such sensors. Within this review paper, we have collected the examples of electrochemical immuno- and geno(apta)sensors for simultaneous detection of multiple analytes. Based on many published literature examples, we have emphasized the recent application of multiplexed platforms for detection of cancer biomarkers. It has allowed us to compare the progress in design strategies, including novel nanomaterials and amplification of signals, to get as low as possible limits of detection. We have focused on multi-electrode and multi-label strategies based on redox-active labels, such as ferrocene, anthraquinone, methylene blue, thionine, hemin and quantum dots, or metal ions such as Ag+, Pb2+, Cd2+, Zn2+, Cu2+ and others. We have finally discussed the possible way of development, challenges and prospects in the area of multianalyte electrochemical immuno- and geno(apta)sensors.

Ultrasonically assisted fabrication of electrochemical platform for tinidazole detection.

Based on sonochemistry, green synthesis methods play an important role in the development of nanomaterials. In this work, a novel chitosan modified MnMoO4/g-C3N4 (MnMoO4/g-C3N4/CHIT) was developed using ultrasonic cell disruptor (500 W, 30 kHz) for ultra-sensitive electrochemical detection of tinidazole (TNZ) in the environment. The morphology and surface properties of the synthesized MnMoO4/g-C3N4/CHIT electrode were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) techniques were utilized to assess the electrochemical performance of TNZ. The results indicate that the electrochemical detection performance of TNZ is highly efficient, with a detection limit (LOD) of 3.78 nM, sensitivity of 1.320 µA·µM-1·cm-2, and a detection range of 0.1-200 µM. Additionally, the prepared electrode exhibits excellent selectivity, desirable anti-interference capability, and decent stability. MnMoO4/g-C3N4/CHIT can be successfully employed to detect TNZ in both the Songhua River and tap water, achieving good recovery rates within the range of 93.0 % to 106.6 %. Consequently, MnMoO4/g-C3N4/CHIT's simple synthesis might provide a new electrode for the sensitive, repeatable, and selective measurement of TNZ in real-time applications. Using the MnMoO4/g-C3N4/CHIT electrode can effectively monitor and detect the concentration of TNZ in environmental water, guiding the sewage treatment process and reducing the pollution level of antibiotics in the water environment.

Regeneratable bioinspired nanochannels for highly sensitive electrochemical detection of glycated albumin.

Glycated albumin (GA) has been proposed as a reliable diabetes mellitus marker particularly useful in assessing intermediate glycemic control. Herein, we designed a bioinspired nanochannels for biochemical detection based on the host-guest interaction between ß-cyclodextrin and azobenzene. Cyclodextrin was grafted on the inner surface of nanochannels of a nanoporous membrane and azobenzene was tagged to the terminal of GA aptamer, thereby facilitating the orientation of GA aptamer in the nanochannels. The presence of GA was monitored by recording the voltammetric signal of ferricyanide that transported across the nanochannel array. The peak current exhibited a linearity relationship with the GA concentration across a broad range of 1.0 ng mL-1 to 100 µg mL-1, along with a detection limit of 0.18 ng mL-1. Notably, the aptamer could be offloaded under ultraviolet light, regenerating the cyclodextrin functionalized nanochannels for subsequent re-immobilization of the fresh aptamer. The relative standard deviation for seven cycles of regeneration treatment was no more than 1.8 %. The remarkable reusability of the nanochannels offered a cost-effective, sensitive and reproducible aptasensing platform.
