Abstract
Bioelectronics, a field pivotal in monitoring and stimulating biological processes, demands innovative nanomaterials as detection platforms. Two-dimensional (2D) materials, with their thin structures and exceptional physicochemical properties, have emerged as critical substances in this research. However, these materials face challenges in biomedical applications due to issues related to their biological compatibility, adaptability, functionality, and nano-bio surface characteristics. This review examines surface modifications using covalent and non-covalent-based polymer-functionalization strategies to overcome these limitations by enhancing the biological compatibility, adaptability, and functionality of 2D nanomaterials. These surface modifications aim to create stable and long-lasting therapeutic effects, significantly paving the way for the practical application of polymer-functionalized 2D materials in biosensors and bioelectronics. The review paper critically summarizes the surface functionalization of 2D nanomaterials with biocompatible polymers, including g-C3N4, graphene family, MXene, BP, MOF, and TMDCs, highlighting their current state, physicochemical structures, synthesis methods, material characteristics, and applications in biosensors and bioelectronics. The paper concludes with a discussion of prospects, challenges, and numerous opportunities in the evolving field of bioelectronics.

Abstract
The discovery of graphene ignites a great deal of interest in the research and advancement of two-dimensional (2D) layered materials. Within it, semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are highly regarded due to their exceptional electrical and optoelectronic properties. Tungsten disulfide (WS2) is a TMDC with intriguing properties, such as biocompatibility, tunable bandgap, and outstanding photoelectric characteristics. These features make it a potential candidate for chemical sensing, biosensing, and tumor therapy. Despite the numerous reviews on the synthesis and application of TMDCs in the biomedical field, no comprehensive study still summarizes and unifies the research trends of WS2 from synthesis to biomedical applications. Therefore, this review aims to present a complete and thorough analysis of the current research trends in WS2 across several biomedical domains, including biosensing and nanomedicine, covering antibacterial applications, tissue engineering, drug delivery, and anticancer treatments. Finally, this review also discusses the potential opportunities and obstacles associated with WS2 to deliver a new outlook for advancing its progress in biomedical research.

Abstract
Recently, 2D layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) with their ultrathin sheet nanostructure and diversified electronic structure have drawn attention for various advanced applications to achieve high-performance parameters. Unique 2D TMDCs mainly comprise transition metal and chalcogen element where chalcogen element layers sandwich the transition metal element layer. In such a case, various properties can be enhanced and controlled depending on the targeted application. Among manipulative 2D TMDCs, tungsten disulphide (WS2) is one of the emerging nano-system due to its fascinating properties in terms of direct band gap, higher mobility, strong photoluminescence, good thermal stability, and strong magnetic field interaction. The advancement in characterization techniques, especially scattering techniques, can help in study of opto-electronic properties of 2D TMDCs along with determination of layer variations and investigation of defect. In this review, the fabrication and applications are well summarized to optimize an appropriate WS2-TMDCs assembly according to focused field of research. Here, the scientific investigations on 2D WS2 are studied in terms of its structure, role of scattering techniques to study its properties, and synthesis routes followed by its potential applications for environmental remediation (e.g., photocatalytic degradation of pollutants, gas sensing, and wastewater treatment) and biomedical domain (e.g., drug delivery, photothermal therapy, biomedical imaging, and biosensing). Further, a special emphasis is given to the significance of 2D WS2 as a substrate for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The discussion is further extended to commercial and industrial aspects, keeping in view major research gaps in existing research studies.

Abstract
For the first time, we report a dual optical sensor method (DOSM) using novel 2D VO2 nanosheets to act as fluorometric and colorimetric sensors to perform quantitative analysis of epinephrine (EP) and dopamine (DA). The wide color spectrum of the 2D vanadium oxidation series and specifically metastable blue 2D VO2 nanosheets were used to develop a DOSM biosensor. DA and EP are the major catecholamines in the human body that play vital roles as neurotransmitters and stress-responsive hormones of the endocrine system, respectively. Accurate and selective detection of these biomolecules can assist in the diagnosis of many neuroendocrine system-related diseases. The newly synthesized 2D VO2 nanosheet sensor showed bluish-green fluorescence as the first-ever fluorescence from 2D VO2 nanosheets. This sensor showed dual-function sensing toward EP by a dominant color change and fluorescence quenching. It is capable of individually detecting and quantifying both EP and DA with high selectivity and sensitivity by using both colorimetry and fluorometry simultaneously, with the detection limits of 1.07 and 5.54 μM for colorimetric analysis, respectively, and 48.07 and 3.98 μM for fluorescence analysis, respectively. The DOSM sensor was directly applied to real urine samples and gained satisfactory recovery above 90% by means of spiked concentrations. This study has opened a new platform using the DOSM and the vanadium oxidation spectrum in a much more effective way for biosensing. The fluorescence capabilities of this metal oxide can be further applied to many sensor applications based on both fluorescence and colorimetric detection.

Abstract
The percentage of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in total hemoglobin (Hb) is an important index for the diagnosis of Type II diabetes (T2D) because it reflects the long-term glucose level in blood. Herein, employing a one-pot co-reduction approach using glutathione (GSH) as structure-directing agent, a cluster-like AuAg nanoparticle (AuAg NPs) material was synthesized, therefore an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) aptamer-sensor for HbA1c detection was developed based on functionalized electrode with this material. Meanwhile, the quantitative determination of total Hb was realized based on the quenching effect of Hb on the fluorescence (FL) of luminol. Under compatible conditions, the results of both indexes can be satisfactorily acquired. This multimodal detection system has a good linear response toward Hb from 0.1 to 2.5 μM and HbA1c from 0.005 to 0.5 μM. The blood test proves this strategy is capable of accurate Hb and HbA1c detection, thus to obtain the percentage of HbA1c in total Hb (HbA1c%), which has the potential application for clinical diagnosis of diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Diabetes is a major public health burden whose prevalence has been steadily increasing over the past decades. Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is currently the gold standard for diagnostics and monitoring glycemic control in diabetes patients. HbA1c biosensors are often considered to be cost-effective alternatives for smaller testing laboratories or clinics unable to access other reference methods. Many of these sensors deploy nanomaterials as recognition elements, detection labels, and/or transducers for achieving sensitive and selective detection of HbA1c. Nanomaterials have emerged as important sensor components due to their excellent optical and electrical properties, tunable morphologies, and easy integration into multiple sensing platforms. In this review, we discuss the advantages of using nanomaterials to construct HbA1c sensors and various sensing strategies for HbA1c measurements. Key gaps between the current technologies with what is needed moving forward are also summarized.

Abstract
Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is one of the most popular biomarkers which can be utilized for the diagnosis and control of diabetes in clinical practice. In this study, a sandwich paper-based electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor has been developed using the zirconium metal-organic framework/Fe3O4(trimethyl chitosan)/gold nanocluster (Zr-MOF/Fe3O4(TMC)/AuNCs) nanocomposite as tracing tag to label anti-HbA1c monoclonal antibody and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) as immobilization platform of sensing element. The screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) were constructed and modified by sputtering a thick layer of gold on the paper substrate, followed by electrochemical reduction of aminophenylboronic acid (APBA)-functionalized GO to rGO/APBA, respectively. Different types of surface analysis methods were applied to characterize the Zr-MOF/Fe3O4(TMC)/AuNCs nanomaterials fabricated. Finally, antibody-labeled Zr-MOF/Fe3O4(TMC)/AuNCs nanocomposites were subjected to HbA1c in the sample and on the paper-based SPE. Quantitative measurement of HbA1c was performed using ECL and cyclic voltammetry (CV) over a potential range of - 0.2 to 1.7 V vs gold reference electrode with a sweep rate of 0.2 V.s-1 in the presence of triethylamine as a co-reactant after sandwiching the HbA1c target between antibody and APBA on the sensing area. This immunosensor demonstrated the desirable assay performance for HbA1c with a wide response range from 2 to 18% and a low detection limit (0.072%). This new strategy provides an effective method for high-performance bioanalysis and opens avenues for the development of high-sensitive and user-friendly device. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
Antibodies are widely used as recognition elements in sensing and therapy, but they suffer from poor stability, long discovery time, and high cost. Herein, a facile approach to create antibody mimics with flexible recognition phases and luminescent rigid scaffolds for the selective recognition, detection, and inactivation of pathogenic bacteria is reported. Tripeptides with a nitriloacetate-Cu group are spontaneously assembled on transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) nanosheets via coordination bonding, providing a diversity of TMD-tripeptide assembly (TPA) antibody mimics. TMD-TPA antibody mimics can selectively recognize various pathogenic bacteria with nanomolar affinities. The bacterial binding sites for TMD-TPA are identified by experiments and molecular dynamics simulations, revealing that the dynamic and multivalent interactions of artificial antibodies play a crucial role for their recognition selectivity and affinity. The artificial antibodies allow the rapid and selective detection of pathogenic bacteria at single copy in human serum and urine, and their effective inactivation for therapy of infected mice. This work demonstrates the potential of TMD-TPA antibody mimics as an alternative to natural antibodies for sensing and therapy.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) is a treatment combining laser irradiation and a photothermal transduction agent (PTA) to generate hyperthermia, which is used to efficiently and effectively treat cancer and prevent bacteria-induced infectious diseases. MoS2, an increasingly used two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide, which shows high absorbance in the near infrared (NIR) laser region, has been extensively utilized as a novel PTA in biomedical applications. The use of MoS2 as an advanced photoabsorbing agent has introduced a more efficient cancer therapy and improved antibacterial efficacy. In this review, we firstly summarize the recent advances in the MoS2-based platform for PTT in cancer and bacteria-induced infectious diseases treatments. We then discuss that the combination of MoS2-based PTT and other biomedical methods along with multimodality imaging, such as chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy (PDT) and immunotherapy, might be a promising strategy for cancer treatment. Furthermore, a new concept is proposed wherein MoS2-based PTT and combined therapies based on this could be more effective for the treatment of various bacteria-induced infectious diseases. Finally, research progress, challenges, and perspectives for the future development of this MoS2-based platform in cancer and bacteria-induced infectious disease treatments are discussed and concluded. Collectively, we think that MoS2-based PTT with high therapeutic efficacy and minimal side-effects could be potentially applied in clinical settings to improve cancer and infectious disease treatments.

Abstract
Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is a product of the spontaneous reaction between hemoglobin and elevated glucose levels in the blood. It is included among the so-called advanced glycation end products, of which is the most important for the clinical diagnosis of diabetes mellitus, and it can serve as an alternative to glycemia measurement. Compared to the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus by glycemia, the HbA1c level is less influenced by a short-term problem with diabetes compensation. Mass spectroscopy and chromatographic techniques are among the standard methods of HbA1c level measurement. Compared to glycemia measurement, there is lack of simple methods for diabetes mellitus diagnosis by means of the HbA1c assay using a point-of-care test. This review article is focused on the surveying of facts about HbA1c and its importance in diabetes mellitus diagnosis, and surveying standard methods and new methods suitable for the HbA1c assay under point-of-care conditions. Various bioassays and biosensors are mentioned and their specifications are discussed.

Abstract
Sepsis is an aberrant systemic inflammatory response mediated by excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS). Developing an efficient antioxidant therapy for sepsis via scavenging ROS and RNS remains a big challenge owing to the insufficient activity and sustainability of conventional antioxidants. Herein, biocompatible transition-metal dichalcogenide antioxidants with excellent scavenging activity and sustainability for H2O2, O2•-, OH•, and nitric oxide are developed for effective sepsis treatment. WS2, MoSe2, and WSe2 nanosheets exfoliated and functionalized with a biocompatible polymer effectively scavenge mitochondrial and intracellular ROS and RNS in inflammatory cells. Among the nanosheets, WS2 most efficiently suppresses the excessive secretion of inflammatory cytokines along with scavenging ROS and RNS without affecting the expression levels of the anti-inflammatory cytokine and ROS-producing enzymes. The WS2 nanosheets significantly improve the survival rate up to 90% for severely septic mice by reducing systemic inflammation. The pharmacokinetics suggests that the WS2 nanosheets can be excreted from mice 3 days after intravenous injection. This work demonstrates the potential of therapeutic nanosheet antioxidants for effective treatment of ROS and RNS-related diseases.

Abstract
The increase in concentrations of blood glucose results arise in the proportion of glycated haemoglobin. Therefore, the percentage of glycated haemoglobin in the blood could function as a biomarker for the average glucose level over the past three months and can be used to detect diabetes. The study of glycated haemoglobin tends to be complex as there are about three hundred distinct assay techniques available for evaluating glycated haemoglobin which contributes to some differences in the recorded values from the similar samples. This review outlines distinct analytical methods that have evolved in the recent past for precise recognition of the glycated - proteins.
