Efficient Adsorption and Electrochemical Detection of Cd2+ with a Ternary MgZnFe-Layered Double Hydroxides Engineered Porous Biochar Composite.

Their unique layered structure, large specific surface area, good stability, high negative charge density between layers, and customizable composition give layered double hydroxides (LDHs) excellent adsorption and detection performance for heavy metal ions (HMIs). However, their easy aggregation and low electrical conductivity limit the practical application of untreated LDHs. In this work, a ternary MgZnFe-LDHs engineered porous biochar (MgZnFe-LDHs/PBC) heterojunction was proposed as a sensing and adsorption material for the effective detection and removal of Cd2+ from wastewater. The growth of MgZnFe-LDHs in the PBC pores not only reduces the accumulation of MgZnFe-LDHs, but also improves the electrical conductivity of the composite. The synergistic effect between MgZnFe-LDHs and PBC enables the composite to achieve a maximum adsorption capacity of up to 293.4 mg/g for Cd2+ in wastewater. Meanwhile, the MgZnFe-LDHs/PBC-based electrochemical sensor shows excellent detection performance for Cd2+, presenting a wide linear range (0.01 ng/L-1 mg/L), low detection limit (3.0 pg/L), good selectivity, and stability. The results indicate that MgZnFe-LDHs/PBC would be a potential material for detecting and removing Cd2+ from wastewater.

Core-shell Cu@C@ZIF-8 composite: a high-performance electrode material for electrochemical sensing of nitrite with high selectivity and sensitivity.

Herein, an efficient electrochemical sensing platform is proposed for selective and sensitive detection of nitrite on the basis of Cu@C@Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (Cu@C@ZIF-8) heterostructure. core-shell Cu@C@ZIF-8 composite was synthesized by pyrolysis of Cu-metal-organic framework@ZIF-8 (Cu-MOF@ZIF-8) in Ar atmosphere on account of the difference of thermal stability between Cu-MOF and ZIF-8. For the sensing system of Cu@C@ZIF-8, ZIF-8 with proper pore size allows nitrite diffuse through the shell, while big molecules cannot, which ensures high selectivity of the sensor. On the other hand, Cu@C as electrocatalyst promotes the oxidation of nitrite, thereby resulting high sensitivity of the sensor. Accordingly, the Cu@C@ZIF-8 based sensor presents excellent performance for nitrite detection, which achieves a wide linear response range of 0.1-300.0µM, and a low limit of detection of 0.033µM. In addition, the Cu@C@ZIF-8 sensor possesses excellent stability and reproducibility, and was employed to quantify nitrite in sausage samples with recoveries of 95.45%-104.80%.

In Situ Synthesis of MnMgFe-LDH on Biochar for Electrochemical Detection and Removal of Cd2+ in Aqueous Solution.

Herein, MnMgFe-layered double hydroxides/biochar (MnMgFe-LDHs/BC) composite was fabricated by immobilizing MnMgFe-LDHs on BC via the coprecipitation method, which was employed as an effective material for the detection and removal of Cd2+ from aqueous media. A lamellar structure of MnMgFe-LDHs with abundant surface-hydroxyl groups and various interlayer anions inside present a greater chance of trapping Cd2+. Meanwhile, the conductive BC with a porous structure provides numerous channels for the adsorption of Cd2+. Using the MnMgFe-LDHs/BC-based sensor, Cd2+ can be detected with a low limit of detection down to 0.03 ng/L. The feasibility of detecting Cd2+ in paddy water was also carried out, with satisfactory recoveries ranging from 97.3 to 102.3%. In addition, the MnMgFe-LDHs/BC material as an adsorbent was applied to remove Cd2+ from water with adsorption capacity of 118 mg/g, and the removal efficiency can reach 91%. These results suggest that the as-prepared MnMgFe-LDHs/BC can serve as a favorable platform for efficient determination and removal of Cd2+ in water.

Herein, Ti3C2TxMXene/N-doped reduced graphene oxide (MXene/N-rGO) composite was employed as the electrocatalyst to construct a new electrochemical sensing platform for the determination of adrenaline (AD). The MXene/N-rGO was synthesized via a facile one-step hydrothermal method, where ethylenediamine acted as a reducing agent and N source. The doped N in rGO served as a bridge between MXene and rGO through tight hydrogen bonds. Scanning electron microscopy showed that large numbers of MXenes with accordion-like morphology were distributed on the surface of the N-rGO. The MXene/N-rGO composite displayed a synergetic catalytic effect for oxidizing AD, originating from the unique catalytic activity of N-rGO and the large surface area and satisfactory conductivity of MXene. These characteristics of composite material led to a remarkable effect on signal amplification for the detection of AD, with a wide linear range from 10.0 nM to 90.0µM and a low detection limit of 3.0 nM based on a signal to noise ratio of 3. Moreover, the MXene/N-rGO electrode displayed good stability, repeatability, and reproducibility. Additionally, the proposed sensor was successfully applied for voltammetric sensing of AD in urine with recoveries from 97.75% to 103.0%.

In this study, the composite of Prussian blue-carboxylated MWCNTs/ZIF-67 (PB-MWCNTs-COOH/ZIF-67) was synthesized and used as modified electrode material to fabricate an electrochemical sensor for the determination of paracetamol (PAR). In this sensor system, negatively charged MWCNTs-COOH as support for the immobilization of positively charged PB can effectively avoid the agglomeration of PB and enhance the stability, conductivity and catalytic activity of the composite.

A multilayer Bi-BTC/reduced graphene oxide (Bi-BTC/rGO) (BTC, 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid) film electrode was adopted to construct a highly sensitive Pb2+ electrochemical sensor. The multilayer Bi-BTC/rGO films were prepared via alternate cast of Bi-BTC and graphene oxide (GO) on a glassy carbon electrode, followed by electro-reduction of the GO components. Bi-BTC has porous broom-like structure and its organic ligand has abundant functional groups, which are favorable for Pb2+ adsorption and preconcentration.

Moreover, the multilayer composite structure greatly increased the exposure of active sites and the surface area of reactive contact, finally realizing the highly sensitive detection of Pb2+. Pb2+ was determined by differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry and the response current was recorded at - 0.62 V. The [Bi-BTC/rGO]2 electrode provides a wide linear response ranging from 0.062 to 20.72 µg/L and a low limit of detection (LOD) of 0.021 µg/L (S/N = 3) for Pb2+, which is lower than the guideline value proposed by the World Health Organization. The method has been applied to determine Pb2+ in industrial wastewater with recoveries of 99.2-104% and RSDs of 3.4-4.0% (n = 3).

High-performance voltammetric sensor for dichlorophenol based on ß-cyclodextrin functionalized boron-doped graphene composite aerogels.

2, 2-methylenebis (4-chlorophenol) (dichlorophenol, Dcp) is a priority pollutant that poses a serious health threat to the public. Thus, the sensitive analysis of Dcp is of great significance. Heteroatom-doped carbon nanomaterials modified electrodes have been proven to be good electrocatalysts for electrochemical sensing application. ß-cyclodextrin (ß-CD) as a signal amplifier has also been utilized in biosensors. Inspired by these, in this study, a new composite of ß-CD and three-dimensional (3D) boron-doped graphene aerogels (BGAs/ß-CD) has been designed as a high-performance electrochemical sensing platform for Dcp determination. Graphene aerogels possess high specific surface area, large pore volume and good conductivity, which ensure rapid mass transfer and accelerated electron transfer. Besides, boron doping causes uneven charge distribution on the graphene lattice surface, producing a large amount of flowing π electrons, which provide abundant active sites for the catalytic oxidation reaction of Dcp. In addition, Dcp molecules could be captured into ß-CD through host-guest recognition, which can effectively amplify the detection signal. Combining the merits of BGAs and ß-CD, the BGAs/ß-CD based sensor achieved sensitive detection of Dcp. Under optimized experimental conditions, the oxidation currents and the concentration of Dcp had a good linear relationship within 1.0 nM âˆ¼ 21 µM. The detection limit was estimated as 0.33 nM (S/N = 3). This study might provide a new basis for the fabrication of 3D BG-based aerogel architectural material and its application in Dcp detection.

Ratiometric electrochemical sensor for sensitive detection of sunset yellow based on three-dimensional polyethyleneimine functionalized reduced graphene oxide aerogels@Au nanoparticles/SH-ß-cyclodextrin.

Electrochemical methods have been deemed effective strategies for the detection of dye additive sunset yellow (SY) owing to their low cost, good stability, and high sensitivity. However, the application of the existing sensors with single electrical signal response is limited by their inadequate sensitivity and large background interference. Herein, a ratiometric electrochemical strategy with a dual signal was developed to detect SY. The strategy had an intrinsic built-in correction to the effects from the system, and thus reduced the influence of environmental change. 3D polyethyleneimine functionalized reduced graphene oxide aerogels@Au nanoparticles/SH-ß-cyclodextrin (PEI-rGAs@AuNPs/SH-ß-CD) was used as the sensing material due to its 3D macroporous microstructure with high specific surface area and excellent electronic conductivity. Guest molecule methylene blue (MB) was chosen as a probe molecule, which formed an inclusion host-guest complex with a SH-ß-CD host in advance. The target molecule SY displaced MB from the CD cavities, resulting in the decrease of MB current and the increase of SY current. With the logarithmic value of ISY/IMB as the readout signal, the detection limit of the developed ratiometric electrochemical sensor reached as low as 0.3 nM, confirming the excellent sensitivity. Furthermore, this strategy exhibited good selectivity and repeatability, and could be used for the detection of SY in a real sample.

A poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate)-based electrochemical sensor for tert.-butylhydroquinone.

Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) is a readily available copolymer that comes as an aqueous dispersion with good processability. A flexible voltammetric sensor for the widely used food stabilizer tert.-butylhydroquinone (TBHQ) was constructed by using a film of PEDOT:PSS. The electron transfer efficiency of the electrode was enhanced by doping with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and mass transport at the electrode-electrolyte interface was increased by adding the cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) which acts as a sorbent for TBHQ. SEM, AFM, XPS, UV - vis and electrochemical analysis were conducted to characterize the properties of the electrode. After optimization of the experimental conditions, the electrode operated at a working potential of 0.17 V (vs. SCE) has a linear response in the 0.5-200 µM TBHQ concentration range and a lower detection limit of 0.15 µM (at S/N = 3). It was applied for the determination of TBHQ in spiked real samples, and recoveries ranged between 96.85 and 103.41%.

A CuO-CeO2 composite prepared by calcination of a bimetallic metal-organic framework for use in an enzyme-free electrochemical inhibition assay for malathion.

An enzyme-free electrochemical method is described for the determination of trace levels of malathion. It is based on a nanostructured copper-cerium oxide (CuO-CeO2) composite prepared by calcination of a Cu(II)/Ce(III) metal-organic framework. The morphology, crystal structure and elemental composition of composite was studied by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The principle for malathion determination is based on the fact that the redox signal of CuO (best measured at around -0.1 V vs. SCE) (at 100 mV/s) is inhibited by malathion due to affinity between CuO and the sulfur groups of malathion. The introduction of CeO2 into the composite system further improves the analytical performance. This is attributed to the unique microstructure and the synergistic effect between CuO and CeO2. Experimental parameters like solution pH value, Cu/Ce molar ratio, accumulation potential, accumulation time, and CuO-CeO2 volume on the electrode were optimized. The assay has a linear range of 10 fM to 100 nM and a 3.3 fM detection limit (at S/N = 3). The electrode is selectively inhibited by malathion even in the presence of potentially interfering substances. Graphical abstract A sensitive and effective enzyme-free electrochemical sensor has been developed for the detection of malathion based on CuO-CeO2 composite derived from bimetallic metal-organic frameworks.

Simple and green synthesis of piperazine-grafted reduced graphene oxide and its application for the detection of Hg(II).

In this paper, piperazine-grafted reduced graphene oxide (NH-rGO) was synthesized via a simple and green two-step procedure: (i) opening of the resulting epoxides of graphene oxide (GO) with piperazine (NH) through nucleophilic substitution; (ii) reduction of GO with ascorbic acid. Its structure and morphology were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The NH-rGO modified glassy carbon electrode was explored as an electrochemical sensor for the determination of Hg(II) using a differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry technique. Hg(II) can be efficiently accumulated and deposited on the surface of a modified electrode by strong coordination chemical bonds formed between Hg(II) and NH. And then the anodic stripping current can be significantly enhanced by rGO with the merits of large specific surface area and high conductivity, which served as a signal amplifier, finally realizing the highly sensitive determination of Hg(II). The experimental parameters including the pH value of the acetate buffer, deposition potential and deposition time were optimized. Under optimal conditions, the developed sensor exhibited a wide linear range from 0.4-12 000 nM with a low limit of detection of 0.2 nM, which is well below the guideline value in drinking water set by the WHO. Moreover, the practical application of this method was confirmed by an assay of Hg(II) in tap water samples with acceptable results.

A three-dimensional porous network graphene aerogel (GAs) with large specific area and excellent conductivity was loaded with ß-cyclodextrin polymer (Pß-CD) to serve as a support for immobilization of antibodies. A highly sensitive immunosensor for the cancer marker carbohydrate antigen 15-3 (CA15-3) was designed based on the use of Pß-CD/GAs. The large specific area of GAs warrants high loading with antibodies, and their excellent electrical conductivity warrants strong electrical signals. Based on the synergistic effect of GAs and Pß-CD, an immunoassay was designed that is making use of hexacyanoferrate as an electrochemical probe and having a pleasantly low working potential of 0.2 V (vs. SCE). Response is linear in the 0.1 mU mL-1 to 100 U mL-1 activity range, and the lower detection limit is 0.03 mU mL-1 (at S/N = 3). The immunoassay is stable, selective and reproducible.

Label-free electrochemical immunosensor based on Nile blue A-reduced graphene oxide nanocomposites for carcinoembryonic antigen detection.

In this article, a novel, label-free, and inherent electroactive redox immunosensor for carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and Nile blue A (NB) hybridized electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (NB-ERGO) is proposed. The composite of NB-graphene oxide (NB-GO) was prepared by π-π stacking interaction. Then, chronoamperometry was adopted to simultaneously reduce HAuCl4 and nanocomposites of NB-GO for synthesizing AuNPs/NB-ERGO. The immunosensor was fabricated by capturing CEA antibody (anti-CEA) at this nanocomposite modified electrode. The immunosensor determination was based on the fact that, due to the formation of antigen-antibody immunocomplex, the decreased response currents of NB were directly proportional to the concentrations of CEA. Under optimal conditions, the linear range of the proposed immunosensor was estimated to be from 0.001 to 40 ng ml(-1) and the detection limit was estimated to be 0.00045 ng ml(-1). The proposed immunosensor was used to determine CEA in clinical serum samples with satisfactory results. The proposed method may provide promising potential application in clinical immunoassays with the properties of facile procedure, stability, high sensitivity, and selectivity.

MXene@Ag-based ratiometric electrochemical sensing strategy for effective detection of carbendazim in vegetable samples.

In this paper, a novel ratiometric electrochemical sensor for carbendazim (CBZ) detection was constructed by a composite of MXene@Ag nanoclusters and amino-functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MXene@AgNCs/NH2-MWCNTs). The Ag nanoclusters (AgNCs) embedded in the MXene not only could inhibit the aggregation of MXene flakes and enhance the electrocatalytic ability, but also serve as an internal reference probe for the ratiometric electrochemical detection. Moreover, the introduction of NH2-MWCNTs can further improve the electrochemical signals of CBZ and Ag, resulting in the enhanced signal amplification and higher sensitivity. Based on these characteristics of the MXene@AgNCs/NH2-MWCNTs composite, the proposed sensor exhibits a favorable linear relationship between ICBZ/IAgNCs and the concentration of CBZ ranging from 0.3 nM to 10 µM and a low limit of detection of 0.1 nM. Moreover, the proposed ratiometric electrochemical sensing platform also demonstrates high selectivity, good reproducibility, secular stability, and satisfactory applicability in vegetable samples.

[Comparison of edge fitness and metal-ceramic bonding force of base metal crowns performed using two methods].

PURPOSE: To compare the marginal fitness and metal-ceramic bonding strength between laser printing metal crown and cast cobalt-chromium alloy crown. METHODS: Cobalt-chromium alloy crowns (n=10)(group A) were made by laser printing and another 10 by traditional casting (group B), respectively. All the first molar crowns were metal substitutes, and the basal crowns were placed in the standard substitutes. The marginal fitness of the basal crown was assessed by observing the margin of the basal crown and the shoulder gap of the substitution under stereomicroscope. Shear test of the basal crown was carried out by universal tester to evaluate the bonding strength between the metal and the porcelain. The differences of the marginal fitness and the bonding strength between the two methods of making basal crown were compared. SPSS 25.0 sofware package was used to analyze the data. RESULTS: The gap between the metal base crown and the generation shoulder of group A was significantly smaller than that of group B[（48.52±5.26)µm vs (76.25±8.37)µm, P<0.05]. The intensity was significantly higher than that of group B [（11.35±3.29）N vs （7.24±2.07）N, P<0.05]. Under electron microscope, the metal layer of group A was more closely combined with the porcelain layer. CONCLUSIONS: The marginal fitness and bonding strength of metal base crowns made by laser printing and traditional casting methods are acceptable. Laser printing metal base crowns have better marginal fitness and stronger bonding strength between metal and porcelain, which is an ideal technology for metal base crowns.
