[PMID: 39116726 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126675] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2024] [Revised: 07/12/2024] [Accepted: 08/05/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024]
Abstract
In this study, we developed a wearable nanozyme-enzyme electrochemical biosensor that enablies sweat lactate monitoring. The biosensor comprises a flexible electrode system prepared on a polyimide (PI) film and the Janus textile for unidirectional sweat transport. We obtained favorable electrochemical activities for hydrogen peroxide reduction by modifying the laser-scribed graphene (LSG) electrode with cerium dioxide (CeO2)-molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) nanozyme and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). By further immobilisation of lactate oxidase (LOx), the proposed biosensor achieves chronoamperometric lactate detection in artificial sweat within a range of 0.1-50.0 mM, a high sensitivity of 25.58 μA mM-1cm-2 and a limit of detection (LoD) down to 0.135 mM, which fully meets the requirements of clinical diagnostics. We demonstrated accurate lactate measurements in spiked artificial sweat, which is consistent with standard ELISA results. To monitor the sweat produced by volunteers while exercising, we conducted on-body tests, showcasing the wearable biosensor's ability to provide clinical sweat lactate diagnosis for medical treatment and sports management.

Abstract
Neuromorphic computing seeks to replicate the capabilities of parallel processing, progressive learning, and inference while retaining low power consumption by drawing inspiration from the human brain. By further overcoming the constraints imposed by the traditional von Neumann architecture, this innovative approach has the potential to revolutionize modern computing systems. Memristors have emerged as a solution to implement neuromorphic computing in hardware, with research based on developing functional materials for resistive switching performance enhancement. Recently, two-dimensional MXenes, a family of transition metal carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides, have begun to be integrated into these devices to achieve synaptic emulation. MXene-based memristors have already demonstrated diverse neuromorphic characteristics while enhancing the stability and reducing power consumption. The possibility of changing the physicochemical properties through modifications of the surface terminations, bandgap, interlayer spacing, and oxidation for each existing MXene makes them very promising. Here, recent advancements in MXene synthesis, device fabrication, and characterization of MXene-based neuromorphic artificial synapses are discussed. Then, we focus on understanding the resistive switching mechanisms and how they connect with theoretical and experimental data, along with the innovations made during the fabrication process. Additionally, we provide an in-depth review of the neuromorphic performance, making a connection with the resistive switching mechanism, along with a compendium of each relevant performance factor for nonvolatile and volatile applications. Finally, we state the remaining challenges in MXene-based devices for artificial synapses and the next steps that could be taken for future development.

Point-of-care testing device platform for the determination of creatinine on an enzyme@CS/PB/MXene@AuNP-based screen-printed carbon electrode. Mikrochim Acta 2024; 191:534. [PMID: 39136796 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-024-06606-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2024] [Accepted: 07/27/2024] [Indexed: 08/15/2024]
Abstract
Screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCE) functionalized with MXene-based three-dimensional nanomaterials are reported for rapid determination of creatinine. Ti3C2TX MXene with in situ reduced AuNPs (MXene@AuNP) were used as a coreactant accelerator for efficient immobilization of enzymes. Creatinine could be oxidized by chitosan-embedded creatinine amidohydrolase, creatine amidinohydrolase, or sarcosine oxidase to generate H2O2, which could be electrochemically detected enhanced by Prussian blue (PB). The enzyme@CS/PB/MXene@AuNP/SPCE detected creatinine within the range 0.03-4.0 mM, with a limit of detection of 0.01 mM, with an average recovery of 96.8-103.7%. This indicates that the proposed biosensor is capable of detecting creatinine in a short amount of time (4 min) within a ± 5% percentage error, in contrast with the standard clinical colorimetric method. With this approach, reproducible and stable electrochemical responses could be achieved for determination of creatinine in serum, urine, or saliva. These results demonstrated its potential for deployment in resource-limited settings for early diagnosis and tracking the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Abstract
The steady progress in consumer electronics, together with improvement in microflow techniques, nanotechnology, and data processing, has led to implementation of cost-effective, user-friendly portable devices, which play the role of not only gadgets but also diagnostic tools. Moreover, numerous smart devices monitor patients' health, and some of them are applied in point-of-care (PoC) tests as a reliable source of evaluation of a patient's condition. Current diagnostic practices are still based on laboratory tests, preceded by the collection of biological samples, which are then tested in clinical conditions by trained personnel with specialistic equipment. In practice, collecting passive/active physiological and behavioral data from patients in real time and feeding them to artificial intelligence (AI) models can significantly improve the decision process regarding diagnosis and treatment procedures via the omission of conventional sampling and diagnostic procedures while also excluding the role of pathologists. A combination of conventional and novel methods of digital and traditional biomarker detection with portable, autonomous, and miniaturized devices can revolutionize medical diagnostics in the coming years. This article focuses on a comparison of traditional clinical practices with modern diagnostic techniques based on AI and machine learning (ML). The presented technologies will bypass laboratories and start being commercialized, which should lead to improvement or substitution of current diagnostic tools. Their application in PoC settings or as a consumer technology accessible to every patient appears to be a real possibility. Research in this field is expected to intensify in the coming years. Technological advancements in sensors and biosensors are anticipated to enable the continuous real-time analysis of various omics fields, fostering early disease detection and intervention strategies. The integration of AI with digital health platforms would enable predictive analysis and personalized healthcare, emphasizing the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in related scientific fields.

Abstract
Wetting behaviors can significantly affect the transport of energy and signal (E&S) through vapor, solid, and liquid interfaces, which has prompted increased interest in interfacial science and technology. E&S transmission can be achieved using electricity, light, and heat, which often accompany and interact with each other. Over the past decade, their distinctive transport phenomena during wetting processes have made significant contributions to various domains. However, few studies have analyzed the intricate relationship between wetting behavior and E&S transport. This review summarizes and discusses the mechanisms of electrical, light, and heat transmission at wetting interfaces to elucidate their respective scientific issues, technical characteristics, challenges, commonalities, and potential for technological convergence. The materials, structures, and devices involved in E&S transportation are also analyzed. Particularly, harnessing synergistic advantages in practical applications and constructing advanced, multifunctional, and highly efficient smart systems based on wetted interfaces is the aim to provide strategies.

Abstract
Safe, accurate, and reliable analysis of urinary biomarkers is clinically important for early detection and monitoring of the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD), as it has become one of the world's most prevalent non-communicable diseases. However, current technologies for measuring urinary biomarkers are either time-consuming and limited to well-equipped hospitals or lack the necessary sensitivity for quantitative analysis and post a health risk to frontline practitioners. Here we report a robust paper-based dual functional biosensor, which is integrated with the clinical urine sampling vial, for the simultaneous and quantitative analysis of pH and glucose in urine. The pH sensor was fabricated by electrochemically depositing IrOx onto a paper substrate using optimised parameters, which enabled an ultrahigh sensitivity of 71.58 mV pH-1. Glucose oxidase (GOx) was used in combination with an electrochemically deposited Prussian blue layer for the detection of glucose, and its performance was enhanced by gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), chitosan, and graphite composites, achieving a sensitivity of 1.5 μA mM-1. This dual function biosensor was validated using clinical urine samples, where a correlation coefficient of 0.96 for pH and 0.98 for glucose detection was achieved with commercial methods as references. More importantly, the urine sampling vial was kept sealed throughout the sample-to-result process, which minimised the health risk to frontline practitioners and simplified the diagnostic procedures. This diagnostic platform, therefore, holds high promise as a rapid, accurate, safe, and user-friendly point-of-care (POC) technology for the analysis of urinary biomarkers in frontline clinical settings.

Reduced graphene oxide-functionalized polymer microneedle for continuous and wide-range monitoring of lactate in interstitial fluid. Talanta 2024; 270:125582.

Abstract
Despite substantial developments in minimally invasive lactate monitoring microneedle electrodes, most such electrode developments have focused on either sensitivity or invasiveness while ignoring a wide range of detection, which is the most important factor in measuring the normal range of lactate in interstitial fluid (ISF). Herein, we present a polymer-based planar microneedle electrode fabrication using microelectromechanical and femtosecond laser technology for the continuous monitoring of lactate in ISF. The microneedle is functionalized with two-dimensional reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and electrochemically synthesized platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs). A particular quantity of Nafion (1.25 wt%) is applied on top of the lactate enzyme to create a diffusion-controlled membrane. Due to the combined effects of the planar structure of the microneedle, rGO, and membrane, the biosensor exhibited excellent linearity up to 10 mM lactate with a limit of detection of 2.04 μM, high sensitivity of 43.96 μA mM-1cm-2, a reaction time of 8 s and outstanding stability, selectivity, and repeatability. The feasibility of the microneedle is evaluated by using it to measure lactate concentrations in artificial ISF and human serum. The results demonstrate that the microneedle described here has great potential for use in real-time lactate monitoring for use in sports medicine and treatment.

Abstract
In recent years, wearable sensors have revolutionized health monitoring by enabling continuous, real-time tracking of human health and performance. These noninvasive devices are usually designed to monitor human physical state and biochemical markers. However, enhancing their functionalities often demands intricate customization by designers and additional expenses for users. Here, we present a strategy using assembled modular circuits to customize health monitoring wearables. The modular circuits can be effortlessly reconfigured to meet various specific requirements, facilitating the incorporation of diverse functions at a lower cost. To validate this approach, modular circuits were employed to develop four distinct systems for in vitro evaluations. These systems enabled the detection of sweat biomarkers and physical signals under various scenarios, including sedentary state, exercise, and daily activities with or without incorporating iontophoresis to induce sweat. Four key sweat markers (K+, Ca2+, Na+, and pH) and three essential physical indicators (heart rate, blood oxygen levels, and skin temperature) are selected as the detection targets. Commercial methods were also used to evaluate the potential for effective health monitoring with our technique. This reconfigurable modular wearable (ReModuWear) system promises to provide more easy-to-use and comprehensive health assessments. Additionally, it may contribute to environmental sustainability by reusing modules.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) layered materials that integrate metallic conductivity, catalytic activity and the ability to stabilize biological receptors provide unique capabilities for designing electrochemical biosensors for large-scale detection and diagnostic applications. Herein, we report a multifunctional MXene-based 2D nanostructure decorated with enzyme mimetic cerium oxide nanoparticle (MXCeO2) as a novel platform and catalytic amplifier for electrochemical biosensors, specifically targeting the detection of oxidase enzyme substrates. We demonstrate enhanced catalytic efficiency of the MXCeO2 for the reduction of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and its ability to immobilize oxidase enzymes, such as glucose oxidase, lactate oxidase and xanthine oxidase. The designed biosensors exhibit high selectivity, stability, and sensitivity, achieving detection limits of 0.8 μM H2O2, 0.49 μM glucose, 3.6 μM lactate and 1.7 μM hypoxanthine, when the MXCeO2 and their respective enzymes were used. The MXCeO2 was successfully incorporated into a wearable fabric demonstrating high sensitivity for lactate measurements in sweat. The unique combination of MXenes with CeO2 offers excellent conductivity, catalytic efficiency and enhanced enzyme loading, demonstrating potential of the MXCeO2 as a catalytically active material to boost efficiency of oxidase enzyme reactions. This design can be used as a general platform for increasing the sensitivity of enzyme based biosensors and advance the development of electrochemical biosensors for a variety of applications.

Abstract
Flammability feature of textiles is a big underlying risk causing fire disasters. The fabrication of reliable fire resistant and quick fire warning fabrics is imperative but challenging. Herein, three types of early fire-warning polyester fabrics, namely, FPP@AM-X, FPP@PM-X and FPP@AX-M1, with good flame retardant and piezoresistive sensing performance were developed by fabricating polyethyleneimine (PEI), ammonium polyphosphate (APP), phytic acid (PA) and MXenes onto phosphorus-containing flame retardant polyethylene terephthalate (FRPET) via polydopamine (PDA) mediated layer-by-layer self-assembly. Owing to the improved thermoelectric properties of MXenes, FPP@A5-M1 exhibited a maximum thermoelectric voltage of 0.59 mV at a temperature difference of 130 °C and can provide an ideal cyclic early fire warning response within 4 s. In addition, due to the synergistic flame retardant effect of MXenes and APP in the coating layer, FPP@A5-M1 could be self-extinguished within 2 s after ignition and the value of peak heat release ratio and total smoke production decreased by 41.9% and 30.4%, respectively. Besides, the MXene-based hybrid coated fabric can detect the movement of human fingers and elbows, illustrating its potential application in piezoresistive tension sensing. This work provides a new route to designing and developing multi-functional and smart fire protection fabrics.

Abstract
Lactate is a metabolite that holds significant importance in human healthcare, biotechnology, and the food industry. The need for lactate monitoring has led to the development of various devices for measuring lactate concentration. Traditional laboratory methods, which involve extracting blood samples through invasive techniques such as needles, are costly, time-consuming, and require in-person sampling. To overcome these limitations, new technologies for lactate monitoring have emerged. Wearable biosensors are a promising approach that offers non-invasiveness, low cost, and short response times. They can be easily attached to the skin and provide continuous monitoring. In this review, we evaluate different types of wearable biosensors for lactate monitoring using lactate oxidase enzyme as biological recognition element and free enzyme systems.

Electrochemical sensors have gained more attention recently than conventional sensors, including optical fibers, chromatography devices, and chemiresistors, due to their better versatility, higher sensitivity and selectivity, and lower complexity. Herein, we review transition metal carbides (TMCs) and transition metal oxides (TMOs) as outstanding materials for electrochemical sensors. We navigate through the fabrication processes of TMCs and TMOs and reveal the relationships among their synthesis processes, morphological structures, and sensing performance. The state-of-the-art biological, gas, and hydrogen peroxide electrochemical sensors based on TMCs and TMOs are reviewed, and potential challenges in the field are suggested. This review can help others to understand recent advancements in electrochemical sensors based on transition metal oxides and carbides.

Abstract
West Nile virus (WNV) is a mosquito-borne flavivirus that can cause West Nile fever, meningitis, encephalitis, and polio. Early detection of WNV is important to prevent infection spread on the field. To commercialize the electrochemical biosensor for WNV, rapid target detection with the cheap manufacture cost is essential. Here, we developed a fast-response electrochemical biosensor consisting of a truncated WNV aptamer/MXene (Ti3C2Tx) bilayer on round-type micro gap. To reduce the target binding time, the application of the alternating current electrothermal flow (ACEF) technology reduced the target detection time to within 10 min, providing a rapid biosensor platform. The MXene nanosheet improved electrochemical signal amplification, and the aptamer produced through systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment process eliminated unnecessary base sequences via truncation and lowered the manufacturing cost. Under optimized conditions, the WNV limit of detection (LOD) and selectivity were measured using electrochemical measurement methods, including cyclic voltammetry and square wave voltammetry. The LOD was 2.57 pM for WNV diluted in deionized water and 1.06 pM for WNV diluted in 10% human serum. The fabricated electrochemical biosensor has high selectivity and allows rapid detection, suggesting the possibility of future application in the diagnosis of flaviviridae virus.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and MXenes have demonstrated immense potential for biomedical applications, offering a plethora of advantages. MXenes, in particular, exhibit robust mechanical strength, hydrophilicity, large surface areas, significant light absorption potential, and tunable surface terminations, among other remarkable characteristics. Meanwhile, MOFs possess high porosity and large surface area, making them ideal for protecting active biomolecules and serving as carriers for drug delivery, hence their extensive study in the field of biomedicine. However, akin to other (nano)materials, concerns regarding their environmental implications persist. The number of studies investigating the toxicity and biocompatibility of MXenes and MOFs is growing, albeit further systematic research is needed to thoroughly understand their biosafety issues and biological effects prior to clinical trials. The synthesis of MXenes often involves the use of strong acids and high temperatures, which, if not properly managed, can have adverse effects on the environment. Efforts should be made to minimize the release of harmful byproducts and ensure proper waste management during the production process. In addition, it is crucial to assess the potential release of MXenes into the environment during their use in biomedical applications. For the biomedical applications of MOFs, several challenges exist. These include high fabrication costs, poor selectivity, low capacity, the quest for stable and water-resistant MOFs, as well as difficulties in recycling/regeneration and maintaining chemical/thermal/mechanical stability. Thus, careful consideration of the biosafety issues associated with their fabrication and utilization is vital. In addition to the synthesis and manufacturing processes, the ultimate utilization and fate of MOFs and MXenes in biomedical applications must be taken into account. While numerous reviews have been published regarding the biomedical applications of MOFs and MXenes, this perspective aims to shed light on the key environmental implications and biosafety issues, urging researchers to conduct further research in this field. Thus, the crucial aspects of the environmental implications and biosafety of MOFs and MXenes in biomedicine are thoroughly discussed, focusing on the main challenges and outlining future directions.

Abstract
Textile bioelectronics that allow comfortable epidermal contact hold great promise in noninvasive biosensing. However, their applications are limited mainly because of the large intrinsic electrical resistance and low compatibility for electronics integration. We report an integrated wristband that consists of multifunctional modules in a single piece of textile to realize wireless epidermal biosensing. The in-textile metallic patterning and reliable interconnect encapsulation contribute to the excellent electrical conductivity, mechanical robustness, and waterproofness that are competitive with conventional flexible devices. Moreover, the well-maintained porous textile architectures deliver air permeability of 79 mm s-1 and moisture permeability of 270 g m-2 day-1, which are more than one order of magnitude higher than medical tapes, thus ensuring superior wearing comfort. The integrated in-textile wristband performed continuous sweat potassium monitoring in the range of 0.3 to 40 mM with long-term stability, demonstrating its great potential for wearable fitness monitoring and point-of-care testing.

Abstract
In this work, a wearable and flexible three-electrode electrochemical sensing system (TESS) by using a two-in-one enzyme-mimic working electrode (TIOWE) is reported. The integrated three-electrode, including working electrodes, reference electrodes, and counter electrodes are formed by transfer printing of Ni2P-based composite electrode ink (Ni2P/G ink), Ag/AgCl ink, and carbon ink onto PDMS substrate, respectively. The Ni2P/G ink-based working electrodes have both good conductivity and enzyme-mimic catalytic activity towards glucose. Under optimized conditions, the TIOWE-TESS has a low detection limit of 0.37 μM and wide linear ranges of 0.001 mM-0.1 mM and 0.1 mM-1.4 mM. Furthermore, the TIOWE-TESS has good applicability in serum samples and reveals remarkable electrochemical performance at fluctuant working temperatures. The proposed TIOWE-TESS can be integrated on a waterproof bandage to fabricate a skin-friendly patch device for sweet glucose monitoring, which highlights its potential applications in flexible and wearable commercial devices for health-monitoring.

Abstract
Self-powered biofuel cells (BFCs) have evolved for highly sensitive detection of biomarkers such as noncodon micro ribonucleic acids (miRNAs) in the presence of interfering substrates. Self-charging supercapacitive BFCs for in vivo and in vitro cellular microenvironments represent the most prevalent sensing mechanism for diagnosis. Therefore, self-powered biosensing (SPB) with a capacitor and contact separation with a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) offers electrochemical and colorimetric dual-mode detection via improved electrical signal intensity. In this review, we discuss three major components: stretchable self-powered BFC design, miRNA sensing, and impedance spectroscopy. A specific focus is given to 1) assembling of sensors for biomarkers, 2) electrical output signal intensification, and 3) role of supercapacitors and nanogenerators in SPBs. We outline the key features of stretchable SPBs and the sequence of miRNA sensing by SPBs. We have emphasized the need of a supercapacitor and nanogenerator for SPBs in the context of advanced assembly of the sensing unit. Finally, we outline the role of impedance spectroscopy in the detection and estimation of biomarkers. We highlight key challenges in SPBs for biomarker sensing, which needs improved sensing accuracy, integration strategies of electrochemical biosensing for in vitro and in vivo microenvironments, and the impact of miRNA sensing on cancer diagnostics. This article attempts a specific focus on the accuracy and limitations of sensing unit for miRNA biomarkers and associated tool for boosting electrical signal intensity for a potential big step further.

Abstract
Recently, two-dimensional (2D) MXenes materials have received enormous attention because of their excellent physiochemical properties such as high carrier mobility, metallic electrical conductivity, mechanical properties, transparency, and tunable work function. MXenes play a significant role as additives, charge transfer layers, and conductive electrodes for optoelectronic applications. Particularly, titanium carbide (Ti3C2Tx) MXene demonstrates excellent optoelectronic features, tunable work function, good electron affinity, and high conductivity. The Ti3C2Tx has been widely used as electron transport (ETL) or hole transport layers (HTL) in the development of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Additionally, Ti3C2Tx has excellent electrochemical properties and has been widely explored as sensing material for the development of electrochemical biosensors. In this review article, we have summarized the recent advances in the development of the PSCs using Ti3C2Tx MXene as ETL and HTL. We have also compiled the recent progress in the fabrication of biosensors using Ti3C2Tx-based electrode materials. We believed that the present mini review article would be useful to provide a deep understanding, and comprehensive insight into the research status.

Abstract
The utilization of nanomaterials in the biosensor field has garnered substantial attention in recent years. Initially, the emphasis was on enhancing the sensor current rather than material interactions. However, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have gained prominence in glucose sensors due to their high aspect ratio, remarkable chemical stability, and notable optical and electronic attributes. The diverse nanostructures and metal surface designs of CNTs, coupled with their exceptional physical and chemical properties, have led to diverse applications in electrochemical glucose sensor research. Substantial progress has been achieved, particularly in constructing flexible interfaces based on CNTs. This review focuses on CNT-based sensor design, manufacturing advancements, material synergy effects, and minimally invasive/noninvasive glucose monitoring devices. The review also discusses the trend toward simultaneous detection of multiple markers in glucose sensors and the pivotal role played by CNTs in this trend. Furthermore, the latest applications of CNTs in electrochemical glucose sensors are explored, accompanied by an overview of the current status, challenges, and future prospects of CNT-based sensors and their potential applications.

Abstract
Despite extensive advances in wearable monitoring systems, most designs focus on the detection of physical parameters or metabolites and do not consider the integration of microfluidic channels, miniaturization, and multimodality. In this study, a combination of multimodal (biochemical and electrophysiological) biosensing and microfluidic channel-integrated patch-based wireless systems is designed and fabricated using flexible materials for improved wearability, ease of operation, and real-time and continuous monitoring. The reduced graphene oxide-based microfluidic channel-integrated glucose biosensor exhibits a good sensitivity of 19.97 (44.56 without fluidic channels) μA mM-1 cm-2 within physiological levels (10 μM-0.4 mM) with good long-term and bending stability. All the sensors in the patch are initially validated using sauna gown sweat-based on-body and real-time tests with five separate individuals who perspired three times each. Multimodal glucose and electrocardiogram (ECG) sensing, along with their real-time adjustment based on sweat pH and temperature fluctuations, optimize sensing accuracy. Laser-burned hierarchical MXene-polyvinylidene fluoride-based conductive carbon nanofiber-based dry ECG electrodes exhibit low skin contact impedance (40.5 kΩ cm2) and high-quality electrophysiological signals (signal-to-noise ratios = 23.4-32.8 dB). The developed system is utilized to accurately and wirelessly monitor the sweat glucose and ECG of a human subject engaged in physical exercise in real time.

Abstract
Hydrogel-based wearable electrochemical biosensors (HWEBs) are emerging biomedical devices that have recently received immense interest. The exceptional properties of HWEBs include excellent biocompatibility with hydrophilic nature, high porosity, tailorable permeability, the capability of reliable and accurate detection of disease biomarkers, suitable device-human interface, facile adjustability, and stimuli responsive to the nanofiller materials. Although the biomimetic three-dimensional hydrogels can immobilize bioreceptors, such as enzymes and aptamers, without any loss in their activities. However, most HWEBs suffer from low mechanical strength and electrical conductivity. Many studies have been performed on emerging electroactive nanofillers, including biomacromolecules, carbon-based materials, and inorganic and organic nanomaterials, to tackle these issues. Non-conductive hydrogels and even conductive hydrogels may be modified by nanofillers, as well as redox species. All these modifications have led to the design and development of efficient nanocomposites as electrochemical biosensors. In this review, both conductive-based and non-conductive-based hydrogels derived from natural and synthetic polymers are systematically reviewed. The main synthesis methods and characterization techniques are addressed. The mechanical properties and electrochemical behavior of HWEBs are discussed in detail. Finally, the prospects and potential applications of HWEBs in biosensing, healthcare monitoring, and clinical diagnostics are highlighted.

Abstract
Functional 2D materials are interesting for a wide range of applications. The rapid growth of the MXene family is due to its compositional diversity, which, in turn, allows significant tuning of the properties, and hence their applicability. The properties are to a large extent dictated by surface terminations. In the present work, we demonstrate the influence of termination species (O, NH, N, S, F, Cl, Br, I) on the changes in electronic structure, work function, dynamical stability, and atomic charges and distances of MXenes (Ti2C, Nb2C, V2C, Mo2C, Ti3C2, and Nb4C3). Among these systems, the work function values were not previously reported for ∼60% of the systems, and most of the previously reported MXenes with semiconducting nature are here proven to be dynamically unstable. The results show that the work function generally decreases with a reduced electronegativity of the terminating species, which in turn is correlated to a reduced charge of both the metal and terminating species and an increased metal-termination distance. An exception to this trend is NH terminations, which display a significantly reduced work function due to an intrinsic dipole moment within the termination. Furthermore, the results suggest that halogen terminations improve the electrical conductivity of the materials.

Abstract
A spiral interdigitated MXene-assisted field effect transistor (SiMFETs) was proposed for determination of IL-6 in patients with kidney transplantation infection. Our SiMFETs demonstrated enhanced IL-6 detection range of 10 fg/mL-100 ng/mL due to the combination of optimized transistor's structure and semiconducting nanocomposites. Specifically, on one hand, MXene-based field effect transistor drastically amplified the amperometric signal for determination of IL-6; on the other hand, the multiple spiral structure of interdigitated drain-source architecture improved the transconductance of FET biosensor. The developed SiMFETs biosensor demonstrated satisfactory stability for 2 months, and favorable reproducibility and selectivity against other biochemical interferences. The SiMFETs biosensor exhibited acceptable correlation coefficient (R2=0.955) in quantification of clinical biosamples. The sensor successfully distinguished the infected patients from the health control with enhanced AUC of 0.939 (sensitivity of 91.7%, specificity of 86.7%). Those merits introduced here may pave an alternative strategy for transistor-based biosensor in point-of-care clinic applications.

Abstract
Since the discovery of graphene, two-dimensional (2D) materials have gained widespread attention, owing to their appealing properties for various technological applications. Etched from their parent MAX phases, MXene is a newly emerged 2D material that was first reported in 2011. Since then, a lot of theoretical and experimental work has been done on more than 30 MXene structures for various applications. Given this, in the present review, we have tried to cover the multidisciplinary aspects of MXene including its structures, synthesis methods, and electronic, mechanical, optoelectronic, and magnetic properties.

Abstract
The goal of protecting the health of future generations is a blueprint for future biosensor design. Systems-level decision support requires that biosensors provide meaningful service to society. In this review, we summarize recent developments in cyber physical systems and biosensors connected with decision support. We identify key processes and practices that may guide the establishment of connections between user needs and biosensor engineering using an informatics approach. We call for data science and decision science to be formally connected with sensor science for understanding system complexity and realizing the ambition of biosensors-as-a-service. This review calls for a focus on quality of service early in the design process as a means to improve the meaningful value of a given biosensor. We close by noting that technology development, including biosensors and decision support systems, is a cautionary tale. The economics of scale govern the success, or failure, of any biosensor system.

Abstract
Sweat, a biofluid secreted naturally from the eccrine glands of the human body, is rich in several electrolytes, metabolites, biomolecules, and even xenobiotics that enter the body through other means. Recent studies indicate a high correlation between the analytes' concentrations in the sweat and the blood, opening up sweat as a medium for disease diagnosis and other general health monitoring applications. However, low concentration of analytes in sweat is a significant limitation, requiring high-performing sensors for this application. Electrochemical sensors, due to their high sensitivity, low cost, and miniaturization, play a crucial role in realizing the potential of sweat as a key sensing medium. MXenes, recently developed anisotropic two-dimensional atomic-layered nanomaterials composed of early transition metal carbides or nitrides, are currently being explored as a material of choice for electrochemical sensors. Their large surface area, tunable electrical properties, excellent mechanical strength, good dispersibility, and biocompatibility make them attractive for bio-electrochemical sensing platforms. This review presents the recent progress made in MXene-based bio-electrochemical sensors such as wearable, implantable, and microfluidic sensors and their applications in disease diagnosis and developing point-of-care sensing platforms. Finally, the paper discusses the challenges and limitations of MXenes as a material of choice in bio-electrochemical sensors and future perspectives on this exciting material for sweat-sensing applications.

In recent years, significant advancements have been achieved in the development of wearable sensors based on two-dimensional (2D) materials with flexibility, excellent mechanical stability, high sensitivity, and accuracy introducing a new approach to remote and real-time health monitoring. In this review, we outline 2D materials-based wearable sensors and biosensors for a remote health monitoring system. The review focused on five types of wearable sensors, which were classified according to their sensing mechanism, such as pressure, strain, electrochemical, optoelectronic, and temperature sensors. 2D material capabilities and their impact on the performance and operation of the wearable sensor are outlined. The fundamental sensing principles and mechanism of wearable sensors, as well as their applications are explored. This review concludes by discussing the remaining obstacles and future opportunities for this emerging telehealth field. We hope that this report will be useful to individuals who want to design new wearable sensors based on 2D materials and it will generate new ideas.

Abstract
Advances in consumer electronics, alongside the fields of microfluidics and nanotechnology have brought to the fore low-cost wearable/portable smart devices. Although numerous smart devices that track digital biomarkers have been successfully translated from bench-to-bedside, only a few follow the same fate when it comes to track traditional biomarkers. Current practices still involve laboratory-based tests, followed by blood collection, conducted in a clinical setting as they require trained personnel and specialized equipment. In fact, real-time, passive/active and robust sensing of physiological and behavioural data from patients that can feed artificial intelligence (AI)-based models can significantly improve decision-making, diagnosis and treatment at the point-of-procedure, by circumventing conventional methods of sampling, and in person investigation by expert pathologists, who are scarce in developing countries. This review brings together conventional and digital biomarker sensing through portable and autonomous miniaturized devices. We first summarise the technological advances in each field vs the current clinical practices and we conclude by merging the two worlds of traditional and digital biomarkers through AI/ML technologies to improve patient diagnosis and treatment. The fundamental role, limitations and prospects of AI in realizing this potential and enhancing the existing technologies to facilitate the development and clinical translation of "point-of-care" (POC) diagnostics is finally showcased.

In situ synthesis of label-free electrochemical aptasensor-based sandwich-like AuNPs/PPy/Ti 3C 2T x for ultrasensitive detection of lead ions as hazardous pollutants in environmental fluids. CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 324:138302. [PMID: 36871797 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.138302] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 35.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2022] [Revised: 02/24/2023] [Accepted: 03/02/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
The monitoring of hazardous pollutants in environmental fluids is one of main stretaegy in investigation of water and soil quality. Metal ions are one of main and dangerius materials in water sampels and one of the main causes of environmental problems. Therefore, many of environmental researchers focused on fabrication of highly sensitive sensor to ion hazardous pollutants environmental fluids. The encapsulation of 2D MXenes with other stable materials has proven to be an effective method for enhancing their stability and electrochemical properties. In this work, a sandwich-like nanocomposite structure, AuNPs/PPy/Ti3C2Tx, was designed and synthesized via a facile method of one-step layer-by-layer self-assembly. The morphology and structure of the prepared nanocomposites are characterized with various methods such as scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Ti3C2Tx as a substrate played a significant role in the synthesis and alignment of PPy and AuNPs growth. The nanocomposites have maximized the benefits of the inorganic AuNPs and organic PPy materials, enhancing their stability and electrochemical performance. Meanwhile, AuNPs have given the nanocomposite the ability to form covalent bonds with biomaterials via the Au-S bond. Thus, a novel electrochemical aptasensor was developed based on AuNPs/PPy/Ti3C2Tx for the sensitive and selective detection of Pb2+. It demonstrated a wide linear range from 5 × 10-14 to 1 × 10-8 M with a low LOD of 1 × 10-14 M (S/N = 3). Additionally, the developed aptasensor exhibited excellent selectivity and stability and successfully used to sensing of Pb2+ in environmental fluids such as NongFu Spring and tap water.

After that, the soft electronics assisted by various algorithms will be reviewed, including some classical algorithms and powerful neural network algorithms. Especially, the soft device assisted by neural network will be introduced carefully. Finally, the outlook, challenge, and conclusion of soft system powered by machine learning algorithm will be discussed.

Abstract
Chemical sensors worn on the body could make possible the continuous, noninvasive, and accurate monitoring of vital human signals, which is necessary for remote health monitoring and telemedicine. Attractive for creating high-performance, wearable chemical sensors are atomically thin materials with intriguing physical features, abundant chemistry, and high surface-to-volume ratios. These advantages allow for appropriate material-analyte interactions, resulting in a high level of sensitivity even at trace analyte concentrations. Previous review articles covered the material and device elements of 2D material-based wearable devices extensively. In contrast, little research has addressed the existing state, future outlook, and promise of 2D materials for wearable chemical sensors. We provide an overview of recent advances in 2D-material-based wearable chemical sensors to overcome this deficiency. The structure design, manufacturing techniques, and mechanisms of 2D material-based wearable chemical sensors will be evaluated, as well as their applicability in human health monitoring. Importantly, we present a thorough review of the current state of the art and the technological gaps that would enable the future design and nanomanufacturing of 2D materials and wearable chemical sensors. Finally, we explore the challenges and opportunities associated with designing and implementing 2D wearable chemical sensors.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials with chemical and structural diversity have piqued the interest of the scientific community due to their superior photonic, mechanical, electrical, magnetic, and catalytic capabilities that distinguish them from their bulk counterparts. Among these 2D materials, two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides, carbonitrides, and nitrides with a general chemical formula of Mn+1XnTx (where n = 1-3), together known as MXenes, have gained tremendous popularity and demonstrated competitive performance in biosensing applications. In this review, we focus on the cutting-edge advances in MXene-related biomaterials, with a systematic summary on their design, synthesis, surface engineering approaches, unique properties, and biological properties. We particularly emphasize the property-activity-effect relationship of MXenes at the nano-bio interface. We also discuss the recent trends in the application of MXenes in accelerating the performance of conventional point of care (POC) devices towards more practical approaches as the next generation of POC tools. Finally, we explore in depth the existing problems, challenges, and potential for future improvement of MXene-based materials for POC testing, with the goal of facilitating their early realization of biological applications.

Abstract
Internet of Wearable Things (IoWT) will be a major breakthrough for remote medical monitoring. In this scenario, wearable biomarker sensors have been developing not only to diagnose point-of-care (POC) of diseases, but also to continuously manage them. On-body tracking of biomarkers in biofluids is regarded as a proper substitution of conventional biomarker sensors for dynamic sampling and analyzing due to their high sensitivity, conformability, and affordability, creating ever-rising the market demand for them. In a wireless body area network (WBAN), data is captured from all sensors on the body to a smartphone/laptop, and sent the sensed data to a cloud for storing, processing, and retrieving, and ultimately displayed the data on custom applications (Apps). Wearable IoT biomarker sensors are used for early diseases diagnosis and continuous monitoring in developing countries in which people hardly access to healthcare systems. In this review, we aim to highlight a wide range of wearable electrochemical biomarker sensors, accompanied by microfluidics for continuous sampling, which will pave the way toward developing wearable IoT biomarker sensors to track health status. The current challenges and future perspective in skin-conformal biomarker sensors will be discussing their potential applicability for IoWT in cloud-based telemedicine.

Abstract
Existing public health emergencies due to fatal/infectious diseases such as coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and monkeypox have raised the paradigm of 5th generation portable intelligent and multifunctional biosensors embedded on a single chip. The state-of-the-art 5th generation biosensors are concerned with integrating advanced functional materials with controllable physicochemical attributes and optimal machine processability. In this direction, 2D metal carbides and nitrides (MXenes), owing to their enhanced effective surface area, tunable physicochemical properties, and rich surface functionalities, have shown promising performances in biosensing flatlands. Moreover, their hybridization with diversified nanomaterials caters to their associated challenges for the commercialization of stability due to restacking and oxidation. MXenes and its hybrid biosensors have demonstrated intelligent and lab-on-chip prospects for determining diverse biomarkers/pathogens related to fatal and infectious diseases. Recently, on-site detection has been clubbed with solution-on-chip MXenes by interfacing biosensors with modern-age technologies, including 5G communication, internet-of-medical-things (IoMT), artificial intelligence (AI), and data clouding to progress toward hospital-on-chip (HOC) modules. This review comprehensively summarizes the state-of-the-art MXene fabrication, advancements in physicochemical properties to architect biosensors, and the progress of MXene-based lab-on-chip biosensors toward HOC solutions. Besides, it discusses sustainable aspects, practical challenges and alternative solutions associated with these modules to develop personalized and remote healthcare solutions for every individual in the world.

Abstract
MXene emerged as decent 2D material and has been exploited for numerous applications in the last decade. The remunerations of the ideal metallic conductivity, optical absorbance, mechanical stability, higher heterogeneous electron transfer rate, and good redox capability have made MXene a potential candidate for biosensing applications. The hydrophilic nature, biocompatibility, antifouling, and anti-toxicity properties have opened avenues for MXene to perform in vitro and in vivo analysis. In this review, the concept, operating principle, detailed mechanism, and characteristic properties are comprehensively assessed and compiled along with breakthroughs in MXene fabrication and conjugation strategies for the development of unique electrochemical and optical biosensors. Further, the current challenges are summarized and suggested future aspects. This review article is believed to shed some light on the development of MXene for biosensing and will open new opportunities for the future advanced translational application of MXene bioassays.
