Abstract
Nitrite is a common nitrogen-containing compound that possesses high biological toxicity, thereby posing a serious threat to aquatic organisms. Therefore, it is imperative to develop a rapid and quantitative determination approach for nitrite. In this study, the aim was to prepare a novel electrochemical sensor to determine nitrite. This was achieved by synthesizing Au/Zn dendritic complexes on a carbon cloth self-supported electrode after plasma treated by a stepwise strategy of electrodeposition and in-situ corrosion. In accordance with the optimal experimental conditions, the electrode exhibited remarkable catalytic activity for the electrooxidation of nitrite ions (pH = 8.0), accompanied by a considerable enhancement in peak anodic current in comparison to the unmodified electrode. The sensor exhibited a wide linear range (1-833 μM, 833-8330 μM), high sensitivity (3506 μA mM-1 cm-2, 538 μA mM-1 cm-2), a low detection limit (0.43 μM), and excellent selectivity, reproducibility, and stability for the determination of nitrite. Furthermore, the prepared sensor was successfully applied to the detection of nitrite in tap water, fish holding pond water and duck pond water, demonstrating good recovery and no significant difference from the spectrophotometric results. The results suggest that the electrochemical sensor developed in this study represents a straightforward yet efficacious approach to the development of advanced portable sensors for aquaculture applications.

Abstract
In the realm of electrochemical nitrite detection, the potent oxidizing nature of nitrite typically necessitates operation at high detection potentials. However, this study introduces a novel approach to address this challenge by developing a highly sensitive electrochemical sensor with a low reduction detection potential. Specifically, a copper metal nanosheet/carbon paper sensitive electrode (Cu/CP) was fabricated using a one-step electrodeposition method, leveraging the catalytic reduction properties of copper's high occupancy d-orbital. The Cu/CP sensor exhibited remarkable performance in nitrite detection, featuring a low detection potential of -0.05 V vs. Hg/HgO, a wide linear range of 10~1000 μM, an impressive detection limit of 0.079 μM (S/N = 3), and a high sensitivity of 2140 μA mM-1cm-2. These findings underscore the efficacy of electrochemical nitrite detection through catalytic reduction as a means to reduce the operational voltage of the sensor. By showcasing the successful implementation of this strategy, this work sets a valuable precedent for the advancement of electrochemical low-potential nitrite detection methodologies.

Abstract
In this work, we constructed an enhanced electrochemical signal sensing platform using Au/ZnO nanoflake arrays coated on carbon cloth for the rapid detection of nitrite in food. Based on a stepwise synthesis strategy of electrodeposition and magnetron sputtering technique, AuNPs were sputtered onto ZnO nanoflower-like array sheets. Combining the high catalytic performance of AuNPs with the morphology of ZnO significantly increased the surface area and electrocatalytic activity of the electrodes. The prepared sensor showed a linear response range of 0.2-4986 μΜ, a limit of detection of 0.09 μM, and a high sensitivity of 5677 μA mM-1 cm-2. It is worth noting that the sensor can precisely detect nitrite in the presence of interfering substances and has excellent stability and reproducibility. In addition, the nitrite residues in several food samples were analyzed using this method and spectrophotometric method, and the results of the two methods were not significantly different.

Abstract
The nitrate ion (NO3-) is a typical pollutant in environmental samples, posing a threat to the aquatic ecosystem and human health. Therefore, rapid and accurate detection of NO3- is crucial for both the aquatic sciences and government regulations. Here we report the fabrication of an amino-functionalized, vertically ordered mesoporous silica film (NH2-VMSF) confining localized copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) for the electrochemical detection of NO3-. NH2-VMSF-carrying amino groups possess an ordered perpendicular nanochannel structure and ultrasmall nanopores, enabling the confined growth of CuNPs through the electrodeposition method. The resulting CuNPs/NH2-VMSF-modified indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode (CuNPs/NH2-VMSF/ITO) combines the electrocatalytic reduction ability of CuNPs and the electrostatic attraction capacity of NH2-VMSF towards NO3-. Thus, it is a rapid and sensitive electrochemical method for the determination of NO3- with a wide linear detection range of 5.0-1000 μM and a low detection limit of 2.3 μM. Direct electrochemical detection of NO3- in water samples (tap water, lake water, seawater, and rainwater) with acceptable recoveries ranging from 97.8% to 109% was performed, demonstrating that the proposed CuNPs/NH2-VMSF/ITO sensor has excellent reproducibility, regeneration, and anti-interference abilities.

Abstract
Development of an effective and convenient sensor for sensitive detection of nitrites is of great concern since excessive amounts of nitrites can be harmful to both human health and the environment. In this work, Cu-MOF modified exfoliated graphite paper (EGP) was employed as a signal reporter to enable the visual and electrochemical dual-mode sensing of nitrites. Cu-MOFs were in situ synthesized on EGP, which exhibited an excellent oxidase enzyme-like activity to oxidize 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) into its oxidation product (oxTMB). The multi-layer structure and the superior electrical conductivity of EGP not only facilitated the loading of the Cu-MOF nanozyme for colorimetric sensing but also enabled its use as an underlying backbone to support electroanalysis. Based on the recognition of nitrite through a highly specific diazo reaction between nitrite and oxTMB, the addition of nitrite caused the colorimetric sensing solution to change color from blue to green, which allowed for the colorimetric sensing of nitrite with a limit of detection (LOD) of 8.5 × 10-6 mol L-1. Meanwhile, the Cu-MOF/EGP electrochemical platform was employed for ratiometric detection of nitrite based on the electrochemical oxidation of nitrite and TMB. Compared with the colorimetric mode, the electrochemical mode possessed higher sensitivity with a LOD of 5.4 × 10-7 mol L-1, indicating the high sensitivity and accuracy of the proposed dual-mode sensing strategy. Furthermore, the determination of nitrite in different pickled food samples is demonstrated.

Abstract
Regulatory bodies play a crucial role in establishing limits for food additives to ensure food quality and safety of food products, as excessive usage poses risks to consumers. In the context of processed animal-based foodstuffs, nitrite is commonly utilized as a means to slow down bacterial degradation. In this study, we have successfully leveraged the redox activity of an electrochemically deposited polydopamine (pDA) film onto gold nanoparticle (AuNP)-modified screen-printed electrodes (SPCE) to develop a sensitive and versatile methodology for the detection of nitrite using redox capacitance spectroscopy. By exploiting the interaction of the AuNPs/pDA electroactive interface with the target nitrite ions, we observed distinct changes in the redox distribution, subsequently leading to modifications in the associated redox capacitance. This alteration enables the successful detection of nitrite, exhibiting a linear response within the concentration range of 10 to 500 μM, with a limit of detection of 1.98 μM (S/N = 3). Furthermore, we applied the developed sensor to analyze nitrite levels in processed meats, yielding good recoveries. These results demonstrate the potential of our approach as a promising method for routine detection of ions.

Abstract
Au nanoparticles were synthesized in a soft template of pseudo-polyanions composed of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) by the in situ reduction of chloroauric acid (HAuCl4) with PVP. The particle sizes and morphologies of the Au nanoparticles were regulated with concentrations of PVP or SDS at room temperature. Distinguished from the Au nanoparticles with various shapes, Au nanoflowers (AuNFs) with rich protrusion on the surface were obtained at the low final concentration of SDS and PVP. The typical AuNF synthesized in the PVP (50 g·L-1)-SDS (5 mmol·L-1)-HAuCl4 (0.25 mmol·L-1) solution exhibited a face-centered cubic structure dominated by a {111} crystal plane with an average equivalent particle size of 197 nm and an average protrusion height of 19 nm. Au nanoparticles with four different shapes, nanodendritic, nanoflower, 2D nanoflower, and nanoplate, were synthesized and used to modify the bare glassy carbon electrode (GCE) to obtain Au/GCEs, which were assigned as AuND/GCE, AuNF/GCE, 2D-AuNF/GCE, and AuNP/GCE, respectively. Electrochemical sensing platforms for nitrite detection were constructed by these Au/GCEs, which presented different detection sensitivity for nitrites. The results of cyclic voltammetry (CV) demonstrated that the AuNF/GCE exhibited the best detection sensitivity for nitrites, and the surface area of the AuNF/GCE was 1.838 times of the bare GCE, providing a linear c(NO2-) detection range of 0.01-5.00 µmol·L-1 with a limit of detection of 0.01 µmol·L-1. In addition, the AuNF/GCE exhibited good reproducibility, stability, and high anti-interference, providing potential for application in electrochemical sensing platforms.

Abstract
In the current study, the synthesis of tetra-4-(2-methoxyphenoxy) carboxamide cobalt(II) amide-bridged phthalocyanine (CoTMePhCAPc) is described, as well as its characterization by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), UV-visible, and mass spectroscopy; powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD); thermogravimetric analysis (TGA); scanning electron microscopy (SEM); and electrochemistry. Sensing of nitrite (NO2-) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) simultaneously was done on CoTMePhCAPc with the composite multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)-modified glassy carbon electrode (CoTMePhCAPc/MWCNT/GCE) in the range of linear absorption (NO2- and H2O2: CV 50-750, differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) 50-750, CA 50-500 nmol L-1), lower detection limit (NO2- and H2O2: CV 10.5 and 12.5, DPV 10.5 and 11.2, CA 6.0 and 5.5 nmol L-1), and sensitivity (NO2- and H2O2: CV 0.379 and 0.529, DPV 0.043 and 0.049, CA 0.033 and 0.040 μA nM-1 cm-2). The composite electrode exhibits improved electrocatalytic behavior compared to modified electrodes for nitrite and H2O2. The CoTMePhCAPc/MWCNT/GCE sensor displays good selectivity even in the presence of an excess of interfering metal ions and biomolecules at the applied potentials of +400 mV (nitrite) and -400 mV (H2O2). Moreover, the fabricated sensor was studied with various phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) (pH 5-9) electrolyte solutions. The unknown H2O2 concentration in blood samples and apple juice and nitrite concentration in drinking water and butter leaf lettuce were all measured using the usual addition method. Docking analysis clearly indicates that the ligand shows excellent inhibition activity toward the three subjected protein molecules.
