Electrochemical biosensor based on the integration of maple leaf-like gold nanocrystal and truncated aptamer for detection of α-amanitin with high sensitivity, selectivity and rapidity. Food Chem 2024; 453:139639. [PMID: 38759442 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139639] [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: 02/09/2024] [Revised: 04/01/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/19/2024]
Abstract
This study reports the fabrication of three-dimensional gold nanocrystals as sensing material in the presence of l-glutathion and high-performance aptamer with 20 bases of α-amanitin via truncation and optimization of along aptamer. The resulting maple leaf-like gold nanocrystal (ML-Au) exhibits an improved catalytic activity due to more exposed high-index facets. The use of truncated aptamer increases the sensitivity by 15 times and reduces the reaction time by two times compared with those of original aptamer. An α-amanitin electrochemical biosensor constructed by integrating ML-Au nanocrystals with truncated aptamer exhibits high sensitivity, selectivity and rapidity. An increase of the α-amanitin concentration in the range of 1 × 10-14-1 × 10-9 M causes a linear decrease in the amperometric current with a limit of detection of 2.9 × 10-15 M (S/N = 3). The proposed analytical method is satisfactorily used for electrochemical sensing of α-amanitin in urine and wild mushroom samples.

Abstract
Lipid membranes that are separated from the surface of graphene by DNA tethers were prepared by surface functionalization with pyrene coupled to single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), followed by self-assembly of the mixture of ssDNA-functionalized phospholipid and the matrix phospholipids. The formation of uniform membranes was confirmed by fluorescence microscopy, and the structures of the systems before and after hybridization in the direction perpendicular to the global plane of the membranes were investigated using high-energy X-ray reflectivity. The thickness values of the DNA spacers (15 and 37 bp) calculated from the best-fit results were less than the expected thicknesses of the double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) chains taking the upright conformation, indicating that the DNA spacers are tilted with respect to the direction normal to the surface. The Young's moduli of the DNA-tethered membranes obtained by AFM nanoindentation showed higher values than the membranes with no DNA tethers, which suggests that the DNA layer resists against the compression, lifting up the membrane. Intriguingly, the presence of DNA tethers caused no increase in the yield depth. The smaller thickness values as well as the unchanged yield depth suggest that the dsDNA chains can tilt and rotate, which can be attributed to the flexible pyrene-DNA junction.

Abstract
We herein describe a novel electrochemical strategy to detect hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) by utilizing the peroxidase-mimicking activity of cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2 NP) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO). Particularly, CeO2 NP/rGO nanocomposites were deposited on the commercial electrode by a very convenient and direct electrochemical reduction of graphene oxide. Due to the peroxidase-mimicking activity of CeO2 NP and the outstanding electrochemical properties of reduced graphene oxide, the reduction current of H2O2 was greatly enhanced. Based on this strategy, we reliably determined H2O2 down to 1.67 μM with excellent specificity and further validated its practical capabilities by robustly detecting H2O2 present in heterogeneous human serum samples. We believe that this work could serve as a new facile platform for H2O2 detection.

Abstract
Currently, electrochemical sensors are being developed and widely used in various fields, and new materials are being explored to enhance the precision and selectivity of the sensors. The present investigation involved the fabrication of a Fe/graphene/porphyrin nanocomposite through self-assembly, wherein the individual porphyrin molecules were arranged on the Fe/graphene nanomaterials' surface. The Fe/graphene nanoparticles were synthesized utilizing a green approach, wherein leaf extract was employed as the reducing agent. The resulting materials underwent comprehensive characterization using a range of contemporary techniques, including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and Raman spectroscopy. The study's findings revealed that the nanocomposites of Fe/graphene/porphyrin comprised zero-valent iron nanoparticles, exhibiting an average particle size ranging from 15 to 60 nm. These nanoparticles were seen to be evenly dispersed across the graphene sheets. The presence of nanostructure porphyrin nanofibers, measuring 20 nm in diameter, was also shown to exhibit strong integration with the surface of the Fe/graphene nanomaterials. The electrochemical properties of the Fe/graphene/porphyrin nanocomposite were also investigated, demonstrating that the prepared material could be effectively employed as a sensing electrode in the electrochemical sensor for detecting Chloramphenicol (CAP) through CV, EIS, and DPV techniques using a three-electrode electrochemical system. Under optimal conditions, Fe/graphene/porphyrin exhibited a high current response when detecting CAPs. Electrochemical sensors created using Fe/graphene/porphyrin nanocomposite have high stability and repeatability, and they hold promise in developing sensors capable of identifying other antibiotic residues in agriculture.

Abstract
Silicon nanowire field effect (SiNW-FET) biosensors have been successfully used in the detection of nucleic acids, proteins and other molecules owing to their advantages of ultra-high sensitivity, high specificity, and label-free and immediate response. However, the presence of the Debye shielding effect in semiconductor devices severely reduces their detection sensitivity. In this paper, a three-dimensional stacked silicon nanosheet FET (3D-SiNS-FET) biosensor was studied for the high-sensitivity detection of nucleic acids. Based on the mainstream Gate-All-Around (GAA) fenestration process, a three-dimensional stacked structure with an 8 nm cavity spacing was designed and prepared, allowing modification of probe molecules within the stacked cavities. Furthermore, the advantage of the three-dimensional space can realize the upper and lower complementary detection, which can overcome the Debye shielding effect and realize high-sensitivity Point of Care Testing (POCT) at high ionic strength. The experimental results show that the minimum detection limit for 12-base DNA (4 nM) at 1 × PBS is less than 10 zM, and at a high concentration of 1 µM DNA, the sensitivity of the 3D-SiNS-FET is approximately 10 times higher than that of the planar devices. This indicates that our device provides distinct advantages for detection, showing promise for future biosensor applications in clinical settings.

Abstract
Catecholamines (CAs), which include adrenaline, noradrenaline, and dopamine, are neurotransmitters and hormones that critically regulate the cardiovascular system, metabolism, and stress response in the human body. The abnormal levels of these molecules can lead to the development of various diseases, including pheochromocytoma and paragangliomas, Alzheimer's disease, and Takotsubo cardiomyopathy. Due to their low cost, high sensitivity, flexible detection strategies, ease of integration, and miniaturization, electrochemical techniques have been extensively employed in the detection of CAs, surpassing traditional analytical methods. Electrochemical detection of CAs in real samples is challenging due to the tendency of poisoning electrode. Chemically modified electrodes have been widely used to solve the problems of poor sensitivity and selectivity faced by bare electrodes. There are a few articles that provide an overview of electrochemical detection and efficient enrichment of CAs, but there is a dearth of updates on the role of CAs in the pathogenesis of diseases. Additionally, there is still a lack of systematic synthesis with a focus on modified electrodes for electrochemical detection. Thus, this review provides a summary of the recent clinical pathogenesis of CAs and the modified electrodes for electrochemical detection of CAs published between 2017 and 2022. Moreover, challenges and future perspectives are also highlighted. This work is expected to provide useful guidance to researchers entering this interdisciplinary field, promoting further development of CAs pathogenesis, and developing more novel chemically modified electrodes for the detection of CAs.

Abstract
Electrochemical methods and devices have ignited prodigious interest for sensing and monitoring. The greatest challenge for science is far from meeting the expectations of consumers. Electrodes made of two-dimensional (2D) materials such as graphene, metal-organic frameworks, MXene, and transition metal dichalcogenides as well as alternative electrochemical sensing methods offer potential to improve selectivity, sensitivity, detection limit, and response time. Moreover, these advancements have accelerated the development of wearable and point-of-care electrochemical sensors, opening new possibilities and pathways for their applications. This Review presents a critical discussion of the recent developments and trends in electrochemical sensing.

Abstract
For over two decades, polymer brushes have found wide applications in industry and scientific research. Now, polymer brush research has been a significant research focus in the community of polymer science. In this review paper, we give an introduction to the synthesis, self-assembly, and applications of one-dimensional (1D) polymer brushes on polymer backbones, two-dimensional (2D) polymer brushes on flat surfaces, and three-dimensional (3D) polymer brushes on spherical particles. Examples of the synthesis of polymer brushes on different substrates are provided. Studies on the formation of the surface nanostructures on solid surfaces are also reviewed in this article. Multicomponent polymer brushes on solid surfaces are able to self-assemble into surface micelles (s-micelles). If the s-micelles are linked to the substrates through cleavable linkages, the s-micelles can be cleaved from the substrates, and the cleaved s-micelles are able to self-assemble into hierarchical structures. The formation of the surface nanostructures by coassembly of polymer brushes and "free" polymer chains (coassembly approach) or polymerization-induced surface self-assembly approach, is discussed. The applications of the polymer brushes in colloid and biomedical science are summarized. Finally, perspectives on the development of polymer brushes are offered in this article.

Abstract
Most food samples are detected positive for neonicotinoid insecticides, posing a severe threat to human health. Electrochemical sensors have been proven effective for monitoring the residues to guarantee food safety, but there needs to be more review to conclude the development status comprehensively. On the other hand, various modified materials were emphasized to improve the performance of electrochemical sensors in relevant reviews, rather than the reasons why they were selected. Therefore, this paper reviewed the electrochemical sensors of neonicotinoid insecticides according to bases and strategies. The fundamental basis is the molecular structure of neonicotinoid insecticides, which was disassembled into four functional groups: nitro group, saturated nitrogen ring system, aromatic heterocycle and chlorine substituent. Their relationships were established with strategies including direct sensing, enzyme sensors, aptasensors, immunosensors, and sample pretreatment, respectively. It is hoped to provide a reference for the effective design of electrochemical sensors for small molecule compounds.

Abstract
Less defective, nitrogen-doped 3-dimensional graphene (N3DG) and defect-rich, nitrogen-doped 3-dimensional graphene (N3DG-D) were made by the thermal CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) process via varying the carbon precursors and synthesis temperature. These modified 3D graphene materials were compared with pristine 3-dimensional graphene (P3DG), which has fewer defects and no nitrogen in its structure. The different types of graphene obtained were characterized for morphological, structural, and compositional assessment through Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Raman Spectroscopy, and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) techniques. Electrodes were fabricated, and electrochemical characterizations were conducted to evaluate the suitability of the three types of graphene for heavy metal sensing (lead) and Electric Double-Layer Capacitor (EDLC) applications. Initially, the various electrodes were treated with a mixture of 2.5 mM Ruhex (Ru (NH3)6Cl3 and 25 mM KCl to confirm that all the electrodes underwent a reversible and diffusion-controlled electrochemical process. Defect-rich graphene (N3DG-D) revealed the highest current density, followed by pristine (P3DG) and less-defect graphene (N3DG). Further, the three types of graphene were subjected to a sensing test by square wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV) for lead detection. The obtained preliminary results showed that the N3DG material provided a great lead-sensing capability, detecting as little as 1 µM of lead in a water solution. The suitability of the electrodes to be employed in an Electric Double-Layer Capacitor (EDLC) was also comparatively assessed. Electrochemical characterization using 1 M sodium sulfate electrolyte was conducted through cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge-discharge studies. The voltammogram and the galvanostatic charge-discharge (GCD) curves of the three types of graphene confirmed their suitability to be used as EDLC. The N3DG electrode proved superior with a gravimetric capacitance of 6.1 mF/g, followed by P3DG and N3DG, exhibiting 1.74 mF/g and 0.32 mF/g, respectively, at a current density of 2 A/g.

An electrochemical sensor based on carbon composites derived from bisbenzimidazole biphenyl coordination polymers for dihydroxybenzene isomers detection. Mikrochim Acta 2023; 191:20. [PMID: 38091124 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-023-06099-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2023] [Accepted: 11/06/2023] [Indexed: 01/17/2024]
Abstract
Co-based coordination polymers (CoCP) based on 4,4'-bis(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)-1,1'-biphenyl (BMB) ligand have been synthesized for the first time by the solvothermal method. The CoCP was carbonized at 700 °C under a nitrogen atmosphere to obtain carbide coordination polymer (C-CoCP) with a unique two-dimensional layered network structure. C-CoCP@GO was obtained by binding with GO and C-CoCP, its morphology and structure were investigated by XRD, SEM, EDS, FTIR, and TGA, which confirmed its two-dimensional stacked layered structure with high catalytic activity and large specific surface area. A highly sensitive electrochemical sensor was constructed for the simultaneous detection of hydroquinone and catechol based on the prepared carbon-based composite. Under optimized conditions, the working potentials (vs. Ag/AgCl) of HQ and CC are at 0.097 V and 0.213 V, respectively. The sensor exhibited an extremely wide linear range of 3-600 μM and 3-1750 μM for hydroquinone (HQ) and catechol (CC), respectively, with limits of detection (LOD) of 0.46 μM and 0.27 μM. The electrode material demonstrated stability over 14 days without significant attenuation of the response signal. Impressively, the sensor shows high stability, reproducibility, and selectivity due to the stable carbon skeleton structure of the C-CoCP material. In addition, it can be applied to the detection of hydroquinone in real samples with high interference immunity and high recovery. Hence, the C-CoCP@GO composite proved to be a great prospect and highly sensitive sensing platform for the detection of phenolic isomers.

Abstract
In this study, a composite film was developed for the electrochemical sensing of tryptophan (Trp). Porous reduced graphene oxide (PrGO) was utilized as the electron transfer layer, and a C-undecylcalix[4]resorcinarene Langmuir-Blodgett (CUCR-LB) film served as the molecular recognition layer. Atomic force microscopy (AFM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and electrochemical experiments were employed to analyze the characteristics of the CUCR-LB/PrGO composite film. The electrochemical behavior of Trp on the CUCR-LB/PrGO composite film was investigated, revealing a Trp linear response range of 1.0 × 10-7 to 3.0 × 10-5 mol L-1 and a detection limit of 3.0 × 10-8 mol L-1. Furthermore, the developed electroanalytical method successfully determined Trp content in an amino acid injection sample. This study not only introduces a rapid and reliable electrochemical method for the determination of Trp but also presents a new strategy for constructing high-performance electrochemical sensing platforms.

Abstract
Disease diagnosis and monitoring using conventional healthcare services is typically expensive and has limited accuracy. Wearable health technology based on flexible electronics has gained tremendous attention in recent years for monitoring patient health owing to attractive features, such as lower medical costs, quick access to patient health data, ability to operate and transmit data in harsh environments, storage at room temperature, non-invasive implementation, mass scaling, etc. This technology provides an opportunity for disease pre-diagnosis and immediate therapy. Wearable sensors have opened a new area of personalized health monitoring by accurately measuring physical states and biochemical signals. Despite the progress to date in the development of wearable sensors, there are still several limitations in the accuracy of the data collected, precise disease diagnosis, and early treatment. This necessitates advances in applied materials and structures and using artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled wearable sensors to extract target signals for accurate clinical decision-making and efficient medical care. In this paper, we review two significant aspects of smart wearable sensors. First, we offer an overview of the most recent progress in improving wearable sensor performance for physical, chemical, and biosensors, focusing on materials, structural configurations, and transduction mechanisms. Next, we review the use of AI technology in combination with wearable technology for big data processing, self-learning, power-efficiency, real-time data acquisition and processing, and personalized health for an intelligent sensing platform. Finally, we present the challenges and future opportunities associated with smart wearable sensors.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a prevalent chronic health condition that has caused millions of deaths worldwide. Monitoring blood glucose levels is crucial in diabetes management, aiding in clinical decision making and reducing the incidence of hypoglycemic episodes, thereby decreasing morbidity and mortality rates. Despite advancements in glucose monitoring (GM), the development of noninvasive, rapid, accurate, sensitive, selective, and stable systems for continuous monitoring remains a challenge. Addressing these challenges is critical to improving the clinical utility of GM technologies in diabetes management. In this concept, cyclodextrins (CDs) can be instrumental in the development of GM systems due to their high supramolecular recognition capabilities based on the host-guest interaction. The introduction of CDs into GM systems not only impacts the sensitivity, selectivity, and detection limit of the monitoring process but also improves biocompatibility and stability. These findings motivated the current review to provide a comprehensive summary of CD-based blood glucose sensors and their chemistry of glucose detection, efficiency, and accuracy. We categorize CD-based sensors into four groups based on their modification strategies, including CD-modified boronic acid, CD-modified mediators, CD-modified nanoparticles, and CD-modified functionalized polymers. These findings shed light on the potential of CD-based sensors as a promising tool for continuous GM in diabetes mellitus management.

Abstract
To integrate two-dimensional (2D) materials into van der Waals heterostructures (vdWHs) is regarded as an effective strategy to achieve multifunctional devices. The vdWHs with strong intrinsic ferroelectricity is promising for applications in the design of new electronic devices. The polarization reversal transitions of 2D ferroelectric Ga2O3layers provide a new approach to explore the electronic structure and optical properties of modulated WS2/Ga2O3vdWHs. The WS2/Ga2O3↑ and WS2/Ga2O3↓ vdWHs are designed to explore possible characteristics through the electric field and biaxial strain. The biaxial strain can effectively modulate the mutual transition of two mode vdWHs in type II and type I band alignment. The strain engineering enhances the optical absorption properties of vdWHs, encompassing excellent optical absorption properties in the range from infrared to visible to ultraviolet, ensuring promising applications in flexible electronics and optical devices. Based on the highly modifiable physical properties of the WS2/Ga2O3vdWHs, we have further explored the potential applications for the field-controlled switching of the channel in MOSFET devices.

Abstract
In this study, simultaneous analysis on electrochemical detection of SMX and TMP in tablet formulation has been made using graphene oxide (GO) and ZnO QDs (GO-ZnO QDs) based nanocomposite modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The functional group presence was observed using FTIR study. The electrochemical characterization for GO, ZnO QDs and GO-ZnO QDs was studied using cyclic voltammetry using [Fe(CN)6]3- medium. In order to estimate the electrochemical redox behavior of SMX and TMP from tablet, the developed electrodes GO/GCE, ZnO QDs/GCE and GO-ZnO QDs/GCE are initially tested for electrochemical activity towards the SMX tablet in BR pH 7 medium. Later their electrochemical sensing has been monitored using square wave voltammetry (SWV). On observing the characteristic behavior of developed electrodes, GO/GCE exhibited detection potential of +0.48 V for SMX and +1.37 V for TMP whereas, ZnO QDs/GCE with +0.78V for SMX and for TMP 1.01 V respectively. Similarly, for GO-ZnO QDs/GCE, its 0.45 V for SMX and 1.11 V for TMP are observed using cyclic voltammetry. The obtained potential results on detecting SMX and TMP are in good agreement with previous results. Under optimized conditions, the response has been monitored with linear concentration range 50 μg/L to 300 μg/L for GO/GCE, ZnO QDs/GCE and GO-ZnO QDs/GCE in SMX tablet formulations. Their detection limits for the individual detection using GO-ZnO/GCE for SMX and TMP are found to be 0.252 ng/L and 19.10 μg/L and for GO/GCE it was 0.252 pg/L and 2.059 ng/L respectively. It was observed that ZnO QDs/GCE could not provide the electrochemical sensing towards SMX and TMP which may be due to the ZnO QPs can act as a blocking layer impeding the electron transfer process. Thus, the sensor performance lead to promising biomedical applications in real-time monitoring on evaluating selective analysis with SMX and TMP in tablet formulations.

Abstract
The world's human population is increasing exponentially, increasing the demand for high-quality food sources. As a result, there is a major global concern over hunger and malnutrition in developing countries with limited food resources. To address this issue, researchers worldwide must focus on developing improved crop varieties with greater productivity to overcome hunger. However, conventional crop breeding methods require extensive periods to develop new varieties with desirable traits. To tackle this challenge, an innovative approach termed plant nanobionics introduces nanomaterials (NMs) into cell organelles to enhance or modify plant function and thus crop productivity and yield. A comprehensive review of nanomaterials affect crop yield is needed to guide nanotechnology research. This article critically reviews nanotechnology applications for engineering plant productivity, seed germination, crop growth, enhancing photosynthesis, and improving crop yield and quality, and discusses nanobionic approaches such as smart drug delivery systems and plant nanobiosensors. Moreover, the review describes NM classification and synthesis and human health-related and plant toxicity hazards. Our findings suggest that nanotechnology application in agricultural production could significantly increase crop yields to alleviate global hunger pressures. However, the environmental risks associated with NMs should be investigated thoroughly before their widespread adoption in agriculture.

Abstract
Mycotoxins are naturally occurring toxic secondary metabolites produced by fungi in cereals and foodstuffs during the stages of cultivation and storage. Electrochemical biosensing has emerged as a rapid, efficient, and economical approach for the detection and quantification of mycotoxins in different sample media. An electrochemical biosensor consists of two main units, a recognition receptor and a signal transducer. Natural or artificial antibodies, aptamers, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIP), peptides, and DNAzymes have been extensively employed as selective recognition receptors for the electrochemical biosensing of mycotoxins. This article affords a detailed discussion of the recent advances and future prospects of various types of recognition receptors exploited in the electrochemical biosensing of mycotoxins.

Abstract
Biosensors are miniaturized devices that provide the advantage of in situ and point-of-care monitoring of analytes of interest. Electrochemical biosensors use the mechanism of oxidation-reduction reactions and measurement of corresponding electron transfer as changes in current, voltage, or other parameters using different electrochemical techniques. The use of electrochemically active materials is critical for the effective functioning of electrochemical biosensors. Laser-induced graphene (LIG) has garnered increasing interest in biosensor development and improvement due to its high electrical conductivity, specific surface area, and simple and scalable fabrication process. The effort of this perspective is to understand the existing classes of analytes and the mechanisms of their detection using LIG-based biosensors. The manuscript has highlighted the potential use of LIG, its modifications, and its use with various receptors for sensing various environmental pollutants. Although the conventional graphene-based sensors effectively detect trace levels for many analytes in different applications, the chemical and energy-intensive fabrication and time-consuming processes make it imperative to explore a low-cost and scalable option such as LIG for biosensors production. The focus of these potential biosensors has been kept on detection analytes of environmental significance such as heavy metals ions, organic and inorganic compounds, fertilizers, pesticides, pathogens, and antibiotics. The use of LIG directly as an electrode, its modifications with nanomaterials and polymers, and its combination with bioreceptors such as aptamers and polymers has been summarized. The strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats analysis has also been done to understand the viability of incorporating LIG-based electrochemical biosensors for environmental applications.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer in women, which is also the second most public cancer worldwide. When detected early, BC can be treated more easily and prevented from spreading beyond the breast. In recent years, various BC biosensor strategies have been studied, including optical, electrical, electrochemical, and mechanical biosensors. In particular, the high sensitivity and short detection time of electrochemical biosensors make them suitable for the recognition of BC biomarkers. Moreover, the sensitivity of the electrochemical biosensor can be increased by incorporating nanomaterials. In this respect, the outstanding mechanical and electrical performances of graphene have led to an increasingly intense study of graphene-based materials for BC electrochemical biosensors. Hence, the present review examines the latest advances in graphene-based electrochemical biosensors for BC biosensing. For each biosensor, the detection limit (LOD), linear range (LR), and diagnosis technique are analyzed. This is followed by a discussion of the prospects and current challenges, along with potential strategies for enhancing the performance of electrochemical biosensors.

Following the introduction, we briefly discuss the GR fabrication, properties, application as electrode materials, the principle of EC sensing system, and the importance of bioanalytes detection in early disease diagnosis. Along with the brief description of GR-derivatives, simulation, and doping, classification of GR-based EC sensors such as cancer biomarkers, neurotransmitters, DNA sensors, immunosensors, and various other bioanalytes detection is provided. The working mechanism of topical GR-based EC sensors, advantages, and real-time analysis of these along with details of analytical merit of figures for EC sensors are discussed. Last, we have concluded the review by providing some suggestions to overcome the existing downsides of GR-based sensors and future outlook. The advancement of electrochemistry, nanotechnology, and point-of-care (POC) devices could offer the next generation of precise, sensitive, and reliable EC sensors.

Abstract
Recently, there has been increasing interest in electrochemical printed sensors for a wide range of applications such as biomedical, pharmaceutical, food safety, and environmental fields. A major challenge is to obtain selective, sensitive, and reliable sensing platforms that can meet the stringent performance requirements of these application areas. Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials advances have accelerated the performance of electrochemical sensors towards more practical approaches. This review discusses the recent development of electrochemical printed sensors, with emphasis on the integration of non-carbon 2D materials as sensing platforms. A brief introduction to printed electrochemical sensors and electrochemical technique analysis are presented in the first section of this review. Subsequently, sensor surface functionalization and modification techniques including drop-casting, electrodeposition, and printing of functional ink are discussed. In the next section, we review recent insights into novel fabrication methodologies, electrochemical techniques, and sensors' performances of the most used transition metal dichalcogenides materials (such as MoS2, MoSe2, and WS2), MXenes, and hexagonal boron-nitride (hBN). Finally, the challenges that are faced by electrochemical printed sensors are highlighted in the conclusion. This review is not only useful to provide insights for researchers that are currently working in the related area, but also instructive to the ones new to this field.

Abstract
Heavy metal ions (HMIs) pose a serious threat to the environment and human body because they are toxic and non-biodegradable and widely exist in environmental ecosystems. It is necessary to develop a rapid, sensitive and convenient method for HMIs detection to provide a strong guarantee for ecology and human health. Ion-imprinted electrochemical sensors (IIECSs) based on nanomaterials have been regarded as an excellent technology because of the good selectivity, the advantages of fast detection speed, low cost, and portability. Electrode surfaces modified with nanomaterials can obtain excellent nano-effects, such as size effect, macroscopic quantum tunneling effect and surface effect, which greatly improve its surface area and conductivity, so as to improve the detection sensitivity and reduce the detection limit of the sensor. Hence, the present review focused on the fundamentals and the synthetic strategies of ion-imprinted polymers (IIPs) and IIECSs for HMIs detection, as well as the applications of various nanomaterials as modifiers and sensitizers in the construction of HMIIECSs and the influence on the sensing performance of the fabricated sensors. Finally, the potential challenges and outlook on the future development of the HMIIECSs technology were also highlighted. By means of the points presented in this review, we hope to provide some help in further developing the preparation methods of high-performance HMIIECSs and expanding their potential applications.

Abstract
In the last few decades, nanomaterials have made great advances in the biosensor field, thanks to their ability to enhance several key issues of biosensing analytical tools, namely, sensitivity, selectivity, robustness, and reproducibility. The recent trend of sustainability has boosted the progress of novel and eco-designed electrochemical paper-based devices to detect easily the target analyte(s) with high sensitivity in complex matrices. The huge attention given by the scientific community and industrial sectors to paper-based devices is ascribed to the numerous advantages of these cost-effective analytical tools, including the absence of external equipment for solution flow, thanks to the capillary force of paper, the fabrication of reagent-free devices, because of the loading of reagents on the paper, and the easy multistep analyses by using the origami approach. Besides these features, herein we highlight the multifarious aspects of the nanomaterials such as (i) the significant enlargement of the electroactive surface area as well as the area available for the desired chemical interactions, (ii) the capability of anchoring biorecognition elements on the electrode surface on the paper matrix, (iii) the improvement of the conductivity of the cellulose matrix, (iv) the functionality of photoelectrochemical properties within the cellulose matrix, and (v) the improvement of electrochemical capabilities of conductive inks commonly used for electrode printing on the paper support, for the development of a new generation of paper-based electrochemical biosensors applied in the biomedical field. The state of the art over the last ten years has been analyzed highlighting the various functionalities that arise from the integration of nanomaterials with paper-based electrochemical biosensors for the detection of biomarkers.

Abstract
In this work, we study the sensing properties of multi-layer graphene combined with pyrrole in order to elaborate low-cost, high-sensitive material for cortisol detection. Graphene nanoplatelets and pyrrole were dispersed in a solution containing 1M HNO3 by using a powerful ultrasound probe for 10 min, then centrifuged for 30 min at 4000 rpm; polymerization was performed by cyclic voltammetry. The graphene-pyrrole composite was tested to ultra-low levels of cortisol in artificial saliva, consistent to the levels excreted in human salivary samples. The composite was further investigated by Raman spectroscopy and we modeled the interaction between the sensitive layer and cortisol using MarvinBeans software. It shows a good sensitivity for salivary values of cortisol cyclic voltammetry being able to detect a level down to 0.5 ng/mL cortisol.

Abstract
A new electrode was prepared based on functionalized graphene and gold nanoparticles dispersed in a chitosan film. Such an electrochemical sensor determines ofloxacin in the presence of dopamine, paracetamol, and caffeine. Characterization (morphological and electrochemical) was done using scanning electron microscopy, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammetry. The sensor design improved the analytical signal, the electrochemical activity, and the electron transfer rate. Ofloxacin was determined by square-wave voltammetry, with a linear concentration range of 0.10-4.9 μmol L-1 (r = 0.999, LOD = 12 nmol L-1). The proposed sensor showed good repeatability and selectivity and was applied successfully to the determination of ofloxacin in pharmaceutical formulations, synthetic urine, and water river samples. The proposed method proved to be excellent; therefore, it is an alternative method for the determination of ofloxacin.

Abstract
Electrochemical water splitting has enticed fascinating consideration as a key conduit for the advancement of renewable energy systems. Fabricating adequate electrocatalysts for water splitting is fervently preferred to curtail their overpotentials and hasten practical utilizations. In this work, a series of Ce-MOF, GO@Ce-MOF, calcinated Ce-MOF, and calcinated GO@Ce-MOF were synthesized and used as high-proficient electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction. The physicochemical characteristics of the prepared samples were measured by diverse analytical techniques including SEM, HRTEM, FTIR, BET, XPS, XRD, and EDX. All materials underwent cyclic voltammetry tests and were evaluated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and oxygen evolution reaction. Ce-MOF, GO@Ce-MOF, calcinated Ce-MOF, and calcinated GO@Ce-MOF have remarkable properties such as enhanced specific surface area, improved catalytic performance, and outstanding permanency in the alkaline solution (KOH). These factors upsurge ECSA and intensify the OER performance of the prepared materials. More exposed surface active-sites present in calcinated GO@Ce-MOF could be the logic for superior electrocatalytic activity. Chronoamperometry of the catalyst for 15°h divulges long-term stability of Ce-MOF during OER. Impedance measurements indicate higher conductivity of synthesized catalysts, facilitating the charge transfer reaction during electrochemical water splitting. This study will open up a new itinerary for conspiring highly ordered MOF-based surface active resources for distinct electrochemical energy applications.

Abstract
In the latest times, considerable studies have been performed closer to detecting emerging pollutant such as paracetamol in wastewater. Electrochemical sensor developments have recently started to determine in fewer concentrations effectively. The detection of paracetamol using standard protocols corresponding to electroanalytical techniques has a greater impact noticed in directing the detecting process toward biosensors. Non-enzymatic sensors are the peak of all electro analysis approaches. Functionalized materials, such as metal oxide nanoparticles, conducting polymers, and carbon-based materials for electrode surface functionalization have been used to create a fortification for distributing passive enzyme-free biosensors. Synergic effects are possible by enhancing loading capacity and mass transfer of reactants for attaining high analytical sensitivity using a variety of nanomaterials with large surface areas. The main focus of this study is to address the prevailing issues in the identification of paracetamol with the tasks in the non-enzymatic sensors field, followed by the useful methods of electro analysis studies.

Abstract
Binary metal oxides with carbon nanocomposites have received extensive attention as research hotspots in the electrochemistry field owing to their tunable properties and superior stability. This work illustrates the development of a facile sonochemical strategy for the synthesis of a copper bismuthate/graphene (GR) nanocomposite-modified screen-printed carbon electrode (CBO/GR/SPCE) for the electrochemical detection of catechol (CT). The formation of an as-prepared CBO/GR nanocomposite was comprehensively characterized. The electrochemical behavior of the CBO/GR/SPCE toward CT was investigated by voltammetry and amperometry techniques. The fabricated CBO/GR/SPCE manifests an excellent electrocatalytic performance toward CT with a lower peak potential and a higher current value compared to those of CBO/SPCE, GR/SPCE, and bare SPCE. It is attributed to enhanced electro-catalytic activity, synergetic effects, and good active sites of the CBO/GR nanocomposite. Under the electrochemical condition, the CBO/GR/SPCE displayed a wide linear sensing range, trace-level detection limit, acceptable sensitivity, and excellent selectivity. Furthermore, our proposed CBO/GR electrode was employed successfully for CT detection in water samples.

Abstract
Heavy metal ions are toxic to humans and can further interact with amyloid in the human body to produce amyloid plaques, which disrupt neurotransmitter function and are linked to Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. In this study, we developed an amyloid oligomer-reduced graphene oxide composite (AOrGOC) electrochemical sensor for effective heavy metal ion detection based on square-wave anodic stripping voltammetry. The reactivity between amyloids and heavy metal ions was studied by analyzing the stripping current for different amyloids (lysozyme, bovine serum albumin, and β-lactoglobulin) and amyloid growth types (monomers, oligomers, and fibrils). Reduced graphene oxide was used to improve the sensitivity of the sensor. The AOrGOC sensor exhibited the detection limits of 86.0 and 9.5 nM for Cd2+ and Pb2+, respectively, and selectively detected Cd2+ and Pb2+ over other heavy metal ions. The AOrGOC sensor also detected Cd2+ and Pb2+ in human plasma, thus exhibiting its potential as a biosensor. This study not only promoted our fundamental understanding of amyloids and the detection of heavy metal ions using amyloids, but also provided valuable insights into amyloid-based electrochemical sensors.

Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) is illustrated as an analogue of a natural biological antibody-antigen system. MIP is an appropriate substrate for electrochemical sensors owing to its binding sites, which match the functional groups and spatial structure of the target analytes. However, the irregular shapes and slow electron transfer rate of MIP limit the sensitivity and conductivity of electrochemical sensors. Nanomaterials, famous for their prominent electron transfer capacity and specific surface area, are increasingly employed in modifications of MIP sensors. Staying ahead of traditional electrochemical sensors, nanomaterials-based MIP sensors represent excellent sensing and recognition capability. This review intends to illustrate their advances over the past five years. Current limitations and development prospects are also discussed.

Abstract
Cancer is by far the most common cause of death worldwide. There are more than 200 types of cancer known hitherto depending upon the origin and type. Early diagnosis of cancer provides better disease prognosis and the best chance for a cure. This fact prompts world-leading scientists and clinicians to develop techniques for the early detection of cancer. Thus, less morbidity and lower mortality rates are envisioned. The latest advancements in the diagnosis of cancer utilizing nanotechnology have manifested encouraging results. Cancerous cells are well known for their substantial amounts of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). The common methods for the detection of H2O2 include colorimetry, titration, chromatography, spectrophotometry, fluorimetry, and chemiluminescence. These methods commonly lack selectivity, sensitivity, and reproducibility and have prolonged analytical time. New biosensors are reported to circumvent these obstacles. The production of detectable amounts of H2O2 by cancerous cells has promoted the use of bio- and electrochemical sensors because of their high sensitivity, selectivity, robustness, and miniaturized point-of-care cancer diagnostics. Thus, this review will emphasize the principles, analytical parameters, advantages, and disadvantages of the latest electrochemical biosensors in the detection of H2O2. It will provide a summary of the latest technological advancements of biosensors based on potentiometric, impedimetric, amperometric, and voltammetric H2O2 detection. Moreover, it will critically describe the classification of biosensors based on the material, nature, conjugation, and carbon-nanocomposite electrodes for rapid and effective detection of H2O2, which can be useful in the early detection of cancerous cells.

Abstract
Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is a disease marker of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and its rapid and sensitive detection is essential for the diagnosis of RA. In this work, a three-dimensional pore structure of alkali-activated nitrogen-doped graphene (aN-G) was used as an electrode modification material, and a label-free electrochemical immunosensor for the sensitive detection of CTGF was successfully constructed by the formation of an amide bond between amino groups in protein and carboxyl groups on the carbon surface. Under optimized conditions, the sensor achieved accurate detection of CTGF in the wide range of 0.0625 ~ 2000 pg mL-1. It had good accuracy (95.0 ~ 100.1%), repeatability (1.2 ~ 2.2%), stability, selectivity, and a low limit of detection (0.0424 pg mL-1, S/N = 3). The sensor was used in serum samples of patients with RA, and CTGF was also successfully detected. Based on this, the electrochemical sensor is expected to become an effective method for RA diagnosis and treatment effect evaluation.

Abstract
An ultra-sensitive sensor of dopamine is introduced. The sensor is constructed by encapsulating platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) between reduced graphene oxide (GR) nanosheets. The sandwiched PtNPs between GR layers acted as a spacer to prevent aggregation and provided a fine connection between the GR nanosheets to provide fast charge transfer. This specific orientation of the GR nanosheets and PtNPs on the graphite pencil electrode (GPE) substantially improved the electrocatalytic activity of the sensor. The synthesized graphene oxide and the fabricated sensor were comprehensively characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman spectroscopy, field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and square wave voltammetry (SWV). The value of the charge transfer coefficient (α), apparent heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant (ks), and electroactive surface area for dopamine were found to be about 0.57, 8.99 s−1, and 0.81 cm2, respectively. The developed sensor is highly sensitive towards dopamine, and the detection limit is 9.0 nM. The sensor response is linear for dopamine concentration from 0.06 to 20 μM (R2 = 0.9991). The behavior of the sensor for dopamine in the presence of a high concentration of l(+) Ascorbic acid and other potential interferents was satisfactory. High recovery percentage between 90% and 105% in the human urine sample, good reproducibility, and facile fabrication of the electrode make it a good candidate for dopamine sensing.

Abstract
Cost-effective, rapid, and accurate virus detection technologies play key roles in reducing viral transmission. Prompt and accurate virus detection enables timely treatment and effective quarantine of virus carrier, and therefore effectively reduces the possibility of large-scale spread. However, conventional virus detection techniques often suffer from slow response, high cost or sophisticated procedures. Recently, two-dimensional (2D) materials have been used as promising sensing platforms for the high-performance detection of a variety of chemical and biological substances. The unique properties of 2D materials, such as large specific area, active surface interaction with biomolecules and facile surface functionalization, provide advantages in developing novel virus detection technologies with fast response and high sensitivity. Furthermore, 2D materials possess versatile and tunable electronic, electrochemical and optical properties, making them ideal platforms to demonstrate conceptual sensing techniques and explore complex sensing mechanisms in next-generation biosensors. In this review, we first briefly summarize the virus detection techniques with an emphasis on the current efforts in fighting again COVID-19. Then, we introduce the preparation methods and properties of 2D materials utilized in biosensors, including graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and other 2D materials. Furthermore, we discuss the working principles of various virus detection technologies based on emerging 2D materials, such as field-effect transistor-based virus detection, electrochemical virus detection, optical virus detection and other virus detection techniques. Then, we elaborate on the essential works in 2D material-based high-performance virus detection. Finally, our perspective on the challenges and future research direction in this field is discussed.

Abstract
Electrochemical sensors have emerged as important diagnostic tools in recent years, due to their simplicity and ease of use. Compared to instrumental analysis methods that use complicated experimental and data analysis techniques─such as mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), spectrophotometric methods, and chromatography─electrochemical sensors show promise for use in a wide range of real-time and in situ applications such as pharmaceutical testing, environmental monitoring, and medical diagnostics. In order to identify analytes in complex and/or biological samples, materials used for both the electrode materials and the chemically selective layer have been evolving throughout the years for optimizing the analytical performance of electrochemical sensors to increase sensitivity, selectivity and linear range. In this Perspective, attention will be focused on different types of materials that have been used for electrochemical sensing, including new combinations of well-studied materials as well as novel strategies to enhance the performance of sensing devices. The Perspective will also discuss existing challenges in the field and future strategies for addressing those challenges.
