Exploring the economic viability of electrochemical assessment for water contaminants with NiFe-PBA/ZIF-67 core shell modified GCE.

Zeolitic Imidazolate (metal organic) Frameworks (ZIFs) and Prussian Blue Analogues (PBAs) are promising materials in electrochemical sensing due to their unique properties. In this study, a composite material comprising NiFe-PBA and ZIF-67 was synthesized and made to form a uniform layer onto a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) to enhance electrochemical performance for furazolidone (FZD) detection. The synthesized NiFe-PBA/ZIF-67 composite exhibited excellent sensitivity, selectivity, and stability towards FZD detection, with a low limit of detection (LOD). The electrochemical behaviour of FZD on the NiFe-PBA/ZIF-67/GCE electrode was investigated, revealing a diffusion-controlled process. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) analysis demonstrated the synergetic effect of the PBA/MOF core-shell structure in enhancing FZD electro-reduction. The sensor exhibited exceptional LOD of 0.007 µM. Selectivity studies confirmed the sensor's ability to distinguish FZD from potential interferents. Extensive evaluations demonstrated the sensor's reproducibility, repeatability, and long-term stability, affirming its practical utility. Real sample analysis further validated the sensor's excellent analytical capabilities in diverse matrices.

Unraveling the Role of Li and Mg Substitution in Layered Sodium Oxide Cathodes for Sodium-Ion Batteries.

Substituting electrochemically active elements such as Li and Mg in P2-type layered sodium oxide is an effective strategy for developing competitive cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries. However, the lack of atomic-level understanding regarding the distribution of substitution positions complicates the comprehension of the roles of substituting atoms and the mechanism of sodium-ion intercalation. In this study, we identified the stable configurations of Na in Na0.75Ni0.3Mn0.7O2 and Na0.75Li0.15Mg0.05Ni0.1Mn0.7O2 materials using the site exclusion method. Through simulating the complete charging process for both materials, the structure evolution of the cathodes during the cycling and the impact of the partial substitution of Ni elements by Li and Mg atoms were comprehensively elucidated. Our findings revealed that Mg atoms effectively regulate the distribution of forces within the materials, essentially serving as supportive pillars within the cathode. Meanwhile, Li atoms efficiently mitigated electron localization, consequently diminishing volume fluctuations during the charging process. More importantly, the substitution with Li and Mg atoms could synergistically reduce the interaction between transition metals and sodium ions, thereby reducing the diffusion energy barrier of Na ions. This study not only enhances the comprehension of substituted metal atoms in P2 layered oxides but also offers new insights for the development of sodium-ion cathode materials.

3D/2D-Bismuth Oxybromide Spheres with Selenium-Doped Graphitic Carbon Nitride Sheets: An Efficient Electrocatalyst for the Detection of Arsenic Drug Roxarsone.

Heavy metals are crucial carcinogenic agents threatening the environment and living habituates. Among them, arsenic (As) is an important metalloid that is categorized as a group I toxic carcinogen. Roxarsone (RX) is an organoarsenic antibiotic compound primarily used as a veterinarian drug and growth promoter for poultry animals. The extensive usage of RX increased the accumulation of As in living beings and the ecosystem. Therefore, we have prepared an electrochemical sensor based on 3D bismuth oxybromide with 2D selenium-doped graphitic carbon nitride (BOB/SCN) electrocatalyst for the rapid detection of RX. The elemental and structural details were thoroughly investigated with several spectroscopic techniques. The electrochemical properties were measured by impedance and voltammetric measurements. The electrocatalytic behavior toward the RX was estimated with different voltammetric methods. Therefore, our BOB/SCN-based electrochemical sensor demonstrated a low detection limit (2.3 nM), low quantification value (7.7 nM), optimal sensitivity (0.675 µA µM-1 cm-2), and good linear ranges (0.01-77 and 77-857 µM). Additionally, this sensor showed good electrochemical performance and was applied to monitor the RX in various real samples with remarkable recoveries. Based on these results, our BOB/SCN sensor is a promising electrochemical platform for determining RX.

Learning Virtual View Selection for 3D Scene Semantic Segmentation.

2D-3D joint learning is essential and effective for fundamental 3D vision tasks, such as 3D semantic segmentation, due to the complementary information these two visual modalities contain. Most current 3D scene semantic segmentation methods process 2D images "as they are", i.e., only real captured 2D images are used. However, such captured 2D images may be redundant, with abundant occlusion and/or limited field of view (FoV), leading to poor performance for the current methods involving 2D inputs. In this paper, we propose a general learning framework for joint 2D-3D scene understanding by selecting informative virtual 2D views of the underlying 3D scene. We then feed both the 3D geometry and the generated virtual 2D views into any joint 2D-3D-input or pure 3D-input based deep neural models for improving 3D scene understanding. Specifically, we generate virtual 2D views based on an information score map learned from the current 3D scene semantic segmentation results. To achieve this, we formalize the learning of the information score map as a deep reinforcement learning process, which rewards good predictions using a deep neural network. To obtain a compact set of virtual 2D views that jointly cover informative surfaces of the 3D scene as much as possible, we further propose an efficient greedy virtual view coverage strategy in the normal-sensitive 6D space, including 3-dimensional point coordinates and 3-dimensional normal. We have validated our proposed framework for various joint 2D-3D-input or pure 3D-input based deep neural models on two real-world 3D scene datasets, i.e., ScanNet v2 and S3DIS, and the results demonstrate that our method obtains a consistent gain over baseline models and achieves new top accuracy for joint 2D and 3D scene semantic segmentation.

Transanal Minimally Invasive Surgery Versus Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection for Rectal Lesions: A Community Hospital Experience.

Background: To compare tumor margins and surgical outcomes between transanal minimally invasive surgery (TAMIS) and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for large or malignant rectal adenomatous polyps. Methods: Single institution retrospective analysis of patients who underwent TAMIS or ESD surgery. Results: In total, 30 consecutive patients with similar demographics who underwent either TAMIS (n = 19) or ESD (n = 11) were included. The median (interquartile range, IQR) tumor distances from the anal verge for TAMIS and ESD were 5 cm (3.5-8) and 3 cm (2-4.25) (P = 0.016). Four in TAMIS and two in ESD occupied more than half of the circumference of the bowel lumen. Five (four in situ and one stage 1) in TAMIS and two (one in situ and one stage 1) in ESD were malignant. The median specimen length, width, and height were 3.2 cm, 2.6 cm, and 1.0 cm and 3.5 cm, 2.0 cm, and 0.3 cm for TAMIS and ESD, respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in tumor circumference, malignant ratios, or specimen sizes. Resection margins were involved in two of the ESD, while none of the TAMIS were involved (P = 0.041). The median (IQR) operative time was 72 (62-89) minutes and 120 (90-180) minutes for TAMIS and ESD (P = 0.005). The median (IQR) follow-up time was 3.3 (0.3-11.7) and 0.9 (0.3-15.4) months for TAMIS and ESD. There were no morbidities, no mortalities, or local recurrences among the two groups. Conclusions: Both TAMIS and ESD were found to be feasible and safe in community hospital practice. Operative time was shorter, and there were no involved margins in TAMIS (versus ESD).

Spatiotemporal heterogeneity of lake carbon dioxide flux leads to substantial uncertainties in regional upscaling estimates.

Limited field samplings result in significant uncertainties in regional and global estimates of lake carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. However, quantitative analysis of uncertainty in regional lake CO2 emission estimates remains unclear. In this study, we utilized satellite data to estimate carbon dioxide flux from 113 eastern China lakes, revealing substantial spatial and temporal variations in flux, averaging 18.07 ± 81.83 mg m-2 d-1. Additionally, satellite-estimated total CO2 effluxes indicated previous upscaling studies had overestimated total CO2 effluxes from these studied lakes by approximately 3-11 times, primarily due to substantial variations in lake CO2 fluxes. Insufficient sampling resolution resulted in considerable uncertainty in upscaling estimations. Temporal variations in carbon dioxide contributed greater upscaling uncertainties than spatial variations in carbon dioxide. To capture the dynamics of lake CO2, increasing the number of sampling points and events is necessary as lake size decreases and trophic state increases. Finally, we propose a prediction for the optimal sampling resolution based on lake area and trophic state, recommending an average of 5 points per lake and bi-monthly sampling as the ideal resolution for similar shallow eutrophic lakes. This approach has been validated as effective in lakes across North America and Europe. We believe that future global-scale lake carbon budget estimates would benefit from field observations conducted at more reasonable sampling points and frequency.

Electrical impedance detects early stages of bone healing: An in vivo explanatory study of tibial fractures in rabbits.

Purpose: Healing after bone fracture is assessed by clinical examination and frequent radiographs, which expose patients to radiation and lack standardisation. This study aimed to explore electrical impedance patterns during bone healing using electrical impedance spectroscopy in 18 rabbits subjected to tibial fracture stabilised with an external fixator. Methods: Impedance was measured daily across the fracture site at a frequency range of 5 Hz to 1 MHz. Biweekly radiographs were analysed using modified anterior-posterior (AP) radiographic union score of the tibia (RUST). The animals were divided into three groups with different follow-up times: 1, 3 and 6 weeks for micro-computer tomography and mechanical testing. Results: A decreasing trend in impedance was observed over time for all rabbits at lower frequencies. Impedance closest to 5 Hz showed a statistically significant decrease over time, with greatest decrease occurring during the first 7 postoperative days. At 5 Hz, a statistically significant correlation was found between impedance and the modified AP RUST score and between impedance and bone volume fraction. Conclusions: This study showed that the electrical impedance can be measured in vivo at a distance from the fracture site with a consistent change in impedance over time and revealed significant correlation between increasing radiographic union score and decreasing impedance. Level of Evidence: Not applicable.

Echinatin alleviates inflammation and pyroptosis in hypoxic-ischemic brain damage by inhibiting TLR4/ NF-κB pathway.

Hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a primary cause of neonatal death and disabilities. The pathogenetic process of HIE is closely associated with neuroinflammation. Therefore, targeting and suppressing inflammatory pathways presents a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of HIE. Echinatin is an active component of glycyrrhiza, with anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties. It is commonly combined with other traditional Chinese herbs to exert heat-clearing and detoxifying effects. This study aimed to investigate the anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects of Echinatin in neonatal rats with hypoxic-ischemic brain damage, as well as in PC12 cells exposed to oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD). In vivo, Echinatin effectively reduced cerebral edema and infarct volume, protected brain tissue morphology, improved long-term behavioral functions, and inhibited microglia activation. These effects were accompanied by the downregulation of inflammatory factors and pyroptosis markers. The RNA sequencing analysis revealed an enrichment of inflammatory genes in rats with hypoxic-ischemic brain damage, and Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis identified TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB as the key regulators. In vitro, Echinatin reduced the levels of TLR4 relevant proteins, inhibited nuclear translocation of NF-κB, reduced the expression of downstreams inflammatory cytokines and pyroptosis proteins, and prevented cell membrane destructions. These findings demonstrated that Echinatin could inhibit the TLR4/NF-κB pathway, thereby alleviating neuroinflammation and pyroptosis. This suggests that Echinatin could be a potential candidate for the treatment of HIE.

Follicular fluid meiosis-activating sterol prevents porcine ovarian granulosa cells from hypoxia-induced apoptosis via inhibiting STAT4 expression.

Follicular fluid meiosis-activating sterol (FF-MAS) is a small molecule compound found in FF, named for its ability to induce oocyte resumption of meiosis. Granulosa cells (GCs) within the follicle are typically located in a hypoxic environment under physiologic conditions due to limited vascular distribution. Previous research suggests that hypoxia-induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in GCs may be crucial triggering factors in porcine follicular atresia. However, the impact of FF-MAS on GCs within follicles has not been explored so far. In this study, we uncovered a novel role of FF-MAS in facilitating GC survival under hypoxic conditions by inhibiting STAT4 expression. We found that STAT4 expression was upregulated in porcine GCs exposed to 1% O2. Both gain and loss of function assays confirmed that STAT4 was required for cell apoptosis under hypoxia conditions, and that the GC apoptosis caused by hypoxia was markedly attenuated following FF-MAS treatment through inhibition of STAT4 expression. Correlation analysis in vivo revealed that GC apoptosis was associated with increased STAT4 expression, while the FF-MAS content in follicular fluid was negatively correlated with STAT4 mRNA levels and cell apoptosis. These findings elucidate a novel role of FF-MAS-mediated protection of GCs by inhibiting STAT4 expression under hypoxia, which might contribute to the mechanistic understanding of follicular development.

Granulosa cells (GCs) influence follicle growth and development, with their proliferation and differentiation promoting follicle development and ovulation, while their programmed cell death and degeneration trigger follicular atresia. In this study, to investigate the effect of FF-MAS on GCs of follicles, we performed gene expression profiling in the domestic pig (Sus scrofa). We discovered STAT4 is required for GC apoptosis under hypoxia conditions both in vitro and in vivo and FF-MAS prevents porcine ovarian granulosa cells from hypoxia-induced apoptosis via inhibiting STAT4 expression.

CXCR3 participates in asymmetric division of mouse oocytes by modulating actin dynamics.

Extensive research has been conducted on the role of CXCR3 in immune responses and inflammation. However, the role of CXCR3 in the reproductive system, particularly in oocyte development, remains unknown. In this study, we present findings on the involvement of CXCR3 in the meiotic division process of mouse oocytes. We found CXCR3 was expressed consistently throughout the entire maturation process of mouse oocyte. Inhibition of CXCR3 impaired the asymmetric division of oocyte, while the injection of Cxcr3 mRNA was capable of restoring these defects. Further study showed that inhibition of CXCR3 perturbed spindle migration by affecting LIMK/cofilin pathway-mediated actin remodeling. Knockout of CXCR3 led to an upregulation of actin-binding protein and an increased ATP level in GV-stage oocytes, while maintaining normal actin dynamics during the process of meiosis. Additionally, we noticed the expression level of DYNLT1 is markedly elevated in CXCR3-null oocytes. DYNLT1 bound with the Arp2/3 complex, and knockdown of DYNLT1 in CXCR3-null oocytes impaired the organization of cytoplasmic actin, suggesting the regulatory role of DYNLT1 in actin organization, and the compensatory expression of DYNLT1 may contribute to maintain normal actin dynamics in CXCR3-knockout oocytes. In summary, our findings provide insights into the intricate network of actin dynamics associated with CXCR3 during oocyte meiosis.

Seawater Chlorella sp. biofilm for mariculture effluent polishing under environmental combined antibiotics exposure and ecological risk evaluation based on parent antibiotics and transformation products.

Mariculture effluent polishing with microalgal biofilm could realize effective nutrients removal and resolve the microalgae-water separation issue via biofilm scraping or in-situ aquatic animal grazing. Ubiquitous existence of antibiotics in mariculture effluents may affect the remediation performances and arouse ecological risks. The influence of combined antibiotics exposure at environment-relevant concentrations towards attached microalgae suitable for mariculture effluent polishing is currently lack of research. Results from suspended cultures could offer limited guidance since biofilms are richer in extracellular polymeric substances that may protect the cells from antibiotics and alter their transformation pathways. This study, therefore, explored the effects of combined antibiotics exposure at environmental concentrations towards seawater Chlorella sp. biofilm in terms of microalgal growth characteristics, nutrients removal, anti-oxidative responses, and antibiotics removal and transformations. Sulfamethoxazole (SMX), tetracycline (TL), and clarithromycin (CLA) in single, binary, and triple combinations were investigated. SMX + TL displayed toxicity synergism while TL + CLA revealed toxicity antagonism. Phosphorus removal was comparable under all conditions, while nitrogen removal was significantly higher under SMX and TL + CLA exposure. Anti-oxidative responses suggested microalgal acclimation towards SMX, while toxicity antagonism between TL and CLA generated least cellular oxidative damage. Parent antibiotics removal was in the order of TL (74.5-85.2 %) > CLA (60.8-69.5 %) > SMX (13.5-44.1 %), with higher removal efficiencies observed under combined than single antibiotic exposure. Considering the impact of residual parent antibiotics, CLA involved cultures were identified of high ecological risks, while medium risks were indicated in other cultures. Transformation products (TPs) of SMX and CLA displayed negligible aquatic toxicity, the parent antibiotics themselves deserve advanced removal. Four out of eight TPs of TL could generate chronic toxicity, and the elimination of these TPs should be prioritized for TL involved cultures. This study expands the knowledge of combined antibiotics exposure upon microalgal biofilm based mariculture effluent polishing.

Genetic screening and metabolomics identify glial adenosine metabolism as a therapeutic target in Parkinson's disease.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder and lacks disease-modifying therapies. We developed a Drosophila model for identifying novel glial-based therapeutic targets for PD. Human alpha-synuclein is expressed in neurons and individual genes are independently knocked down in glia. We performed a forward genetic screen, knocking down the entire Drosophila kinome in glia in alpha-synuclein expressing flies. Among the top hits were five genes (Ak1, Ak6, Adk1, Adk2, and awd) involved in adenosine metabolism. Knockdown of each gene improved locomotor dysfunction, rescued neurodegeneration, and increased brain adenosine levels. We determined that the mechanism of neuroprotection involves adenosine itself, as opposed to a downstream metabolite. We dove deeper into the mechanism for one gene, Ak1, finding rescue of dopaminergic neuron loss, alpha-synuclein aggregation, and bioenergetic dysfunction after glial Ak1 knockdown. We performed metabolomics in Drosophila and in human PD patients, allowing us to comprehensively characterize changes in purine metabolism and identify potential biomarkers of dysfunctional adenosine metabolism in people. These experiments support glial adenosine as a novel therapeutic target in PD.

Robotic versus laparoscopic pelvic lateral lymph node dissection in locally advanced rectal cancer: a systemic review and meta-analysis.

BACKGROUND: There are few available studies that compare the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of robotic pelvic lateral lymph node dissection compared to laparoscopic pelvic lateral lymph node dissection (LPLND) in advanced rectal cancer. This meta-analysis aims to compare perioperative outcomes between robotic and LPLND. METHODS: We performed a systemic literature review of PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases. Perioperative parameters were extracted and pooled for analysis. This meta-analysis provided an analysis of heterogeneity and prediction intervals. RESULTS: Five studies were included: 567 patients divided between 266 robotic and 301 LPLND. Overall operation time was longer in the robotic group than laparoscopic group (difference in means = 67.11, 95% CI [30.80, 103.42], p < 0.001) but the difference in the pelvic lateral lymph dissection time was not statistically significant (difference in means = - 1.212, 95% CI [ - 11.594, 9.171], p = 0.819). There were fewer overall complications in the robotic than in the laparoscopic group (OR = 1.589, 95% CI [1.009, 2.503], p = 0.046), especially with respect to urinary retention (OR = 2.23, 95% CI [1.277, 3.894], p = 0.005). More pelvic lateral lymph nodes were harvested by robotic surgery than by laparoscopy (differences in means = - 1.992, 95% CI [ - 2.421, 1.563], p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: In this meta-analysis, robotic pelvic lateral lymph node dissection was associated with more pelvic lateral lymph nodes harvested and lower overall complications, especially urinary retention when compared to LPLND. Further studies are needed to reinforce these findings.

Menaquinone-4 alleviates hypoxic-ischemic brain damage in neonatal rats by reducing mitochondrial dysfunction via Sirt1-PGC-1α-TFAM signaling pathway.

BACKGROUND: Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a major contributor to neonatal mortality and neurodevelopmental disorders, but currently there is no effective therapy drug for HIE. Mitochondrial dysfunction plays a pivotal role in hypoxic-ischemic brain damage(HIBD). Menaquinone-4 (MK-4), a subtype of vitamin K2 prevalent in the brain, has been shown to enhance mitochondrial function and exhibit protective effects against ischemia-reperfusion injury. However, the impact and underlying molecular mechanism of MK-4 in HIE have not been fully elucidated. METHODS: In this study, we established the neonatal rats HIBD model in vivo and oxygen-glucose deprivation and reperfusion (OGD/R) of primary neurons in vitro to explore the neuroprotective effects of MK-4 on HI damage, and illuminate the potential mechanism. RESULTS: Our findings revealed that MK-4 ameliorated mitochondrial dysfunction, reduced oxidative stress, and prevented HI-induced neuronal apoptosis by activating the Sirt1-PGC-1α-TFAM signaling pathway through Sirt1 mediation. Importantly, these protective effects were partially reversed by EX-527, a Sirt1 inhibitor. CONCLUSION: Our study elucidated the potential therapeutic mechanism of MK-4 in neonatal HIE, suggesting its viability as an agent for enhancing recovery from HI-induced cerebral damage in newborns. Further exploration into MK-4 could lead to novel interventions for HIE therapy.

Functionalized gold nanoparticle enhanced nanorod hyperbolic metamaterial biosensor for highly sensitive detection of carcinoembryonic antigen.

Hyperbolic metamaterial (HMM) biosensors based on metals have superior performance in comparison with conventional plasmonic biosensors in the detection of low concentrations of molecules. In this study, a nanorod HMM (NHMM) biosensor based on refractive index changes for carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) detection is developed using secondary antibody modified gold nanoparticle (AuNP-Ab2) nanocomposites as signal amplification element for the first time. Numerical analysis based on finite element method is conducted to simulate the perturbation of the electric field of bulk plasmon polariton (BPP) supported by a NHMM in the presence of a AuNP. The simulation reveals an enhancement of the localized electric field, which arises from the resonant coupling of BPP to the localized surface plasmon resonance supported by AuNPs and is beneficial for the detection of changes of the refractive index. Furthermore, the AuNP-Ab2 nanocomposites-based NHMM (AuNP/Ab2-NHMM) biosensor enables CEA detection in the visible and near-infrared regions simultaneously. The highly sensitive detection of CEA with a wide linear range of 1-500 ng/mL is achieved in the near-infrared region. The detectable concentration of the AuNP/Ab2-NHMM biosensor has a 50-fold decrease in comparison with a NHMM biosensor. A low detection limit of 0.25 ng/mL (1.25 pM) is estimated when considering a noise level of 0.05 nm as the minimum detectable wavelength shift. The proposed method achieves high sensitivity and good reproducibility for CEA detection, which makes it a novel and viable approach for biomedical research and early clinical diagnostics.

Design and fabrication of La-based perovskites incorporated with functionalized carbon nanofibers for the electrochemical detection of roxarsone in water and food samples.

The pentavalent arsenic compound roxarsone (RSN) is used as a feed additive in poultry for rapid growth, eventually ending up in poultry litter. Poultry litter contains chicken manure, which plays a vital role as an affordable fertilizer by providing rich nutrients to agricultural land. Consequently, the extensive use of poultry droppings serves as a conduit for the spread of toxic forms of arsenic in the soil and surface water. RSN can be easily oxidized to release highly carcinogenic As(III) and As(IV) species. Thus, investigations were conducted for the sensitive detection of RSN electrochemically by developing a sensor material based on lanthanum manganese oxide (LMO) and functionalized carbon nanofibers (f-CNFs). The successfully synthesised LMO/f-CNF composite was confirmed by chemical, compositional, and morphological studies. The electrochemical activity of the prepared composite material was examined using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The obtained results confirmed that LMO/f-CNF showed enhanced electrocatalytic activity and improved current response with a good linear range (0.01-0.78 µM and 2.08-497 µM, respectively), exhibiting a low limit of detection (LOD) of 0.004 µM with a high sensitivity of 13.24 µA µM-1 cm-2 towards the detection of RSN. The noteworthy features of LMO/f-CNF composite with its superior electrochemical performance enabled reliable reproducibility, exceptional stability and reliable practical application in the analysis of tap water and food sample, affording a recovery range of 86.1-98.87%.

In-situ growth of MOF-derived Co3S4@MoS2 heterostructured electrocatalyst for the detection of furazolidone.

The over-exploitation of antibiotics in food and farming industries ruined the environmental and human health. Consequently, electrochemical sensors offer significant advantages in monitoring these compounds with high accuracy. Herein, MOF-derived hollow Co3S4@MoS2 (CS@MS) heterostructure has been prepared hydrothermally and applied to fabricate an electrochemical sensor to monitor nitrofuran class antibiotic drug. Various spectroscopic methodologies have been employed to elucidate the structural and morphological information. Our prepared electrocatalyst has better electrocatalytic performance than bare and other modified glassy carbon electrodes (GCE). Our CS@MS/GCE sensor exhibited a highly sensitive detection by offering a low limit of detection, good sensitivity, repeatability, reproducibility, and stability results. In addition, our sensor has shown a good selectivity towards the target analyte among other potential interferons. The practical reliability of the sensor was measured by analyzing various real-time environmental and biological samples and obtaining good recovery values. From the results, our fabricated CS@MS could be an active electrocatalyst material for an efficient electrochemical sensing application.
