Abstract
In the past 5 years, real-time health monitoring has become ubiquitous with the development of watches and rings that can measure and report on the physiological state. As an extension, real-time biomarker sensors, such as the continuous glucose monitor, are becoming popular for both health and performance monitoring. However, few real-time sensors for biomarkers have been made commercially available; this is primarily due to problems with cost, stability, sensitivity, selectivity, and reproducibility of biosensors. Therefore, simple, robust sensors are needed to expand the number of analytes that can be detected in emerging and existing wearable platforms. To address this need, we present a simple but novel sensing material. In short, we have modified the already popular PEDOT/PSS conductive polymer by completely removing the PEDOT component and thus have fabricated a polystyrene sulfonate (PSS) sensor electrodeposited on a glassy carbon (GC) base (GC-PSS). We demonstrate that coupling the GC-PSS sensor with differential pulse voltammetry creates a sensor capable of the selective and sensitive detection of serotonin. Notably, the GC-PSS sensor has a sensitivity of 179 μA μM-1 cm-2 which is 36x that of unmodified GC and an interferent-free detection limit of 10 nM, which is below the concentrations typically found in saliva, urine, and plasma. Notably, the redox potential of serotonin interfacing with the GC-PSS sensor is at -0.188 V versus Ag/AgCl, which is significantly distanced from peaks produced by common interferants found in biofluids, including serum. Therefore, this paper reports a novel, simple sensor and polymeric interface that is compatible with emerging wearable sensor platforms.

Abstract
We report here a liquid crystal (LC)-based sensor for detecting serotonin (5-HT); the proposed sensor uses target-specific aptamer recognition at a cationic surfactant decorated-aqueous/LC interface. Our detection strategy focuses on the orientational transition of LCs upon biological interactions at the interface. In this sensing system, the cationic surfactant hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) forms a self-assembled monolayer at the aqueous/LC interface and triggers the homeotropic orientation of LCs. After introducing the 5-HT specific aptamer, an electrostatic attraction occurs between the cationic CTAB and anionic aptamer. This interaction destructs the surfactant monolayer at the interface, inducing reorganization of LC alignment from homeotropic to tilted conditions. In the increasing 5-HT levels, specific binding between 5-HT and the aptamer diminishes the interaction between the aptamer and CTAB, thereby maintaining the homeotropic alignment of LCs. The orientational transition of the LCs was observed under a polarized optical microscope. The developed biosensor has a linear detection range from 1 to 1000 nM and a detection limit of 1.68 nM. Moreover, the sensor was applied to a human urine sample and a detection limit of 2.25 nM was obtained. Overall, the designed LC-based sensor is a sensitive, simple, cost effective, and selective platform for detecting 5-HT in aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Serotonin (5-HT) is a critical neurotransmitter involved in many neuronal functions, and 5-HT depletion has been linked to several mental diseases. The fast release and clearance of serotonin in the extracellular space, low analyte concentrations, and a multitude of interfering species make the detection of serotonin challenging. This work presents an electrochemical aptamer-based biosensing platform that can monitor 5-HT continuously with high sensitivity and selectivity. Our electrochemical sensor showed a response time of approximately 1 min to a step change in the serotonin concentration in continuous monitoring using a single-frequency EIS (electrochemical impedance spectroscopy) technique. The developed sensing platform was able to detect 5-HT in the range of 25-150 nM in the continuous sample fluid flow with a detection limit (LOD) of 5.6 nM. The electrochemical sensor showed promising selectivity against other species with similar chemical structures and redox potentials, including dopamine (DA), norepinephrine (NE), L-tryptophan (L-TP), 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA), and 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP). The proposed sensing platform is able to achieve high selectivity in the nanomolar range continuously in real-time, demonstrating the potential for monitoring serotonin from neurons in organ-on-a-chip or brain-on-a-chip-based platforms.

Abstract
In this work, CoNiWO4 nanocomposite was used as an electrochemical sensor for the simultaneous electrochemical detection of tramadol and serotonin. The nanocomposite was synthesized using a hydrothermal method and characterized via XRD, SEM, TGA, Zeta, UV, and FTIR. The sensor was developed by depositing CoNiWO4-NPs onto the glassy carbon electrode surface. Tramadol and serotonin were detected by employing cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and chronoamperometry. Analytes were detected at different pH, concentrations, and scan rates. The prepared sensor showed a 0-60 µM linear range, with a LOD of 0.71 µM and 4.29 µM and LOQ of 14.3 µM and 2.3 µM for serotonin and tramadol, respectively. Finally, the modified electrode (CoNiWO4-GCE) was applied to determine tramadol and serotonin in biological samples.

Abstract
Tryptophan (Trp), an α-amino acid, is the precursor of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT), which is involved in a variety of features of metabolic function and human nutrition. Evidence highlights the role of Trp metabolites (exclusively 5-HT) in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract; however, the mechanisms of action involved in the release of 5-HT in the GI tract are still unknown. Considering the fact that variations of 5-HT may facilitate the growth of certain GI disorders, gaining a better understanding of the function and release of 5-HT in the GI tract would be beneficial. Additionally, investigating Trp metabolism may clarify the relationship between Trp and gut microbiota. It is believed that other metabolites of Trp (mostly that of the kynurenine pathway) may play a significant role in controlling gut microbiota function. In this review, we have attempted to summarize the current research investigating the relationship of gut microbiota, Trp, and 5-HT metabolism (with particular attention paid to their metabolite type, as well as a discussion of the research methods used in each study). Taking together, regarding the role that Trp/5-HT plays in a range of physical and mental diseases, the gut bacterial types, as well as the related disorders, have been exclusively considered.

Abstract
A two-dimensional capillary isotachophoresis-capillary zone electrophoresis method hyphenated with tandem mass spectrometry was developed and validated for ultrasensitive quantification of serotonin in real human urine samples. Under optimal conditions, the separation was achieved within 12 min (including on-line sample preparation) with the limit of detection of 34 pg mL-1 (due to a large volume sample injection, here 10 µL, and isotachophoretic preconcentration). This concentration limit represents the lowest value for serotonin in comparison to other previously published separation methods employing mass spectrometry detection and applied to urine matrices. Thanks to high orthogonality, on-line concentration and clean-up effects of this approach, other excellent validation parameters such as linearity (coefficient of determination > 0.99), inter-day and intra-day precision (relative standard deviations 3.5-12.2%), accuracy (relative errors within 99-109.4%), and recovery (96-102%) could be easily obtained too. To demonstrate applicability of the method, we monitored serotonin levels in various real samples (from a healthy volunteer and clinical ones). The determined levels, normalized on the creatinine concentrations, were in the range of 6.81-12.86 ng mmol-1 creatinine This advanced method is suggested for an effective, reliable, high sample throughput, and low cost routine clinical screening or targeted metabolomic studies of serotonin in urine samples.

Abstract
Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) is an important neurotransmitter which plays a significant role in various functions in the body, such as appetite, emotions, and autonomic functions. It is well known that biomarker 5-HT levels can be correlated to several diseases and disorders such as depression, anxiety, irritable bowel, and sleep trouble. Among various methods for detecting the 5-HT biomarker, electrochemical techniques have attracted great interest due to their low cost and ease of operation. However, sensitive and precise electrochemical detection of 5-HT levels is not possible using bare electrodes, thus requiring electrode modification. The present review aims to describe the different electroanalytical methods for 5-HT detection using various surface-modified electrodes such as glassy carbon, carbon fiber, diamond, graphite, and metal electrodes modified with conductive polymers. Perspectives and the modification of electrode surface using applied polymers for 5-HT detection have also been presented.

Abstract
An advanced two-dimensional capillary electrophoresis method, based on on-line combination of capillary isotachophoresis and capillary zone electrophoresis with cyclodextrin additive in background electrolyte, was developed for effective determination of serotonin in human urine. Hydrodynamically closed separation system and large bore capillaries (300–800 µm) were chosen for the possibility to enhance the sample load capacity, and, by that, to decrease limit of detection. Isotachophoresis served for the sample preseparation, defined elimination of sample matrix constituents (sample clean up), and preconcentration of the analyte. Cyclodextrin separation environment enhanced separation selectivity of capillary zone electrophoresis. In this way, serotonin could be successfully separated from the rest of the sample matrix constituents migrating in capillary zone electrophoresis step so that human urine could be directly (i.e., without any external sample preparation) injected into the analyzer. The proposed method was successfully validated, showing favorable parameters of sensitivity (limit of detection for serotonin was 2.32 ng·mL−1), linearity (regression coefficient higher than 0.99), precision (repeatability of the migration time and peak area were in the range of 0.02–1.17% and 5.25–7.88%, respectively), and recovery (ranging in the interval of 90.0–93.6%). The developed method was applied for the assay of the human urine samples obtained from healthy volunteers. The determined concentrations of serotonin in such samples were in the range of 12.4–491.2 ng·mL−1 that was in good agreement with literature data. This advanced method represents a highly effective, reliable, and low-cost alternative for the routine determination of serotonin as a biomarker in human urine.

Abstract
A CE-ESI-MRM-based assay was developed for targeted analysis of serotonin released by human embryonic stem cells-derived serotonergic neurons in a chemically defined environment. A discontinuous electrolyte system was optimized for pH-mediated online stacking of serotonin. Combining with a liquid-liquid extraction procedure, LOD of serotonin in the Krebs'-Ringer's solution by CE-ESI-MS/MS on a 3D ion trap MS was0.15 ng/mL. The quantitative results confirmed the serotonergic identity of the in vitro developed neurons and the capacity of these neurons to release serotonin in response to stimulus.

Abstract
A new approach has been proposed for the traditional Jaffe's reaction by coating Ag NPs with picric acid to form an assembly that can selectively detect creatinine. This sensor proficiently and selectively recognizes creatinine due to the ability of picric acid to bind with it and form a complex.

Abstract
Sample stacking is a term denoting a multifarious class of methods and their names that are used daily in CE for online concentration of diluted samples to enhance separation efficiency and sensitivity of analyses. The essence of these methods is that analytes present at low concentrations in a large injected sample zone are concentrated into a short and sharp zone (stack) in the separation capillary. Then the stacked analytes are separated and detected. Regardless of the diversity of the stacking electromigration methods, one can distinguish four main principles that form the bases of nearly all of them: (i) Kohlrausch adjustment of concentrations, (ii) pH step, (iii) micellar methods, and (iv) transient ITP. This contribution is a continuation of our previous reviews on the topic and brings an overview of papers published during 2010-2012 and relevant to the mentioned principles (except the last one which is covered by another review in this issue).

Abstract
Over the past two decades, many environmentally sustainable sample-preparation techniques have been proposed, with the objective of reducing the use of toxic organic solvents or substituting these with environmentally friendly alternatives. Microextraction techniques (MEs), in which only a small amount of organic solvent is used, have several advantages, including reduced sample volume, analysis time, and operating costs. Thus, MEs are well adapted in bioanalysis, in which sample preparation is mandatory because of the complexity of a sample that is available in small quantities (mL or even μL only). Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is a powerful and efficient separation technique in which no organic solvents are required for analysis. Combination of CE with MEs is regarded as a very attractive environmentally sustainable analytical tool, and numerous applications have been reported over the last few decades for bioanalysis of low-molecular-weight compounds or for peptide analysis. In this paper we review the use of MEs combined with CE in bioanalysis. The review is divided into two sections: liquid and solid-based MEs. A brief practical and theoretical description of each ME is given, and the techniques are illustrated by relevant applications.

Abstract
This communication reports a promising platform for rapid, simple, direct, and ultrasensitive determination of serotonin. The method is related to integration of vertically aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) in electrochemical microfluidic devices. The required microfabrication protocol is simple and fast. In addition, the nanomaterial influenced remarkably the obtained limit-of-detection (LOD) values. Our system achieved a LOD of 0.2 nmol L(-1) for serotonin, to the best of our knowledge one of the lowest values reported in the literature.
