Abstract
A very sensitive electrochemical biosensor, with haemoglobin (Hb) as its basis, has been created to quantify hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), an essential marker in environmental monitoring, food safety, and medical diagnosis. The sensor uses a simple, eco-friendly preparation method. Hb was immobilised on manganese dioxide nanostructure/gold nanoparticles/poly-diallydimethylammonium chloride-functionalised multiwalled carbon nanotubes (PDDA-MWCNT/AuNP/MnO2), characterised using various techniques: amperometry, voltammetry, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Nafion was used as a binder membrane to preserve the biological and electrochemical properties of the protein on the modified electrode. In comparison to earlier research, the novel biosensor had a lower detection limit (1.83 μM) and a limit of quantification (6.11 μM) (S/N = 3) for H2O2. It also exhibited notable reproducibility, long-term stability, and repeatability. It was effectively used to measure the amount of H2O2 in cow milk and orange juice, yielding recoveries in the order of 98.90-99.53 % with RSDs less than 5.0 %, which makes it a promising biosensor for food control.

Abstract
The intensive research on the synthesis and characterization of gold (Au) nanostructures has been extensively documented over the last decades. These investigations allow the researchers to understand the relationships between the intrinsic properties of Au nanostructures such as particle size, shape, morphology, and composition to synthesize the Au nano/hybrid nanostructures with novel physicochemical properties. By tuning the properties above, these nanostructures are extensively employed to detect and remove trace amounts of toxic pollutants from the environment. This review attempts to document the achievements and current progress in Au-based nanostructures, general synthetic and fabrication strategies and their utilization in electrochemical sensing and environmental remediation applications. Additionally, the applications of Au nanostructures (e.g., as adsorbents, sensing platforms, catalysts, and electrodes) and advancements in the field of electrochemical sensing of different target analytes (e.g., proteins, nucleic acids, heavy metals, small molecules, and antigens) are summarized. The literature survey concludes the existing methods for the detection of toxic contaminants at various concentration levels. Finally, the existing challenges and future research directions on electrochemical sensing and degradation of toxic contaminants using Au nanostructures are defined.

Abstract
Ordered nanoporous Cu/Ni/Au film was prepared by electrochemical deposition and magnetron sputtering using an anodic aluminium oxide template. The fabricated porous film has a uniform hexagonal pore size structure, a long-range ordered arrangement, and a pore diameter of approximately 40 nm. Following the dissolution of the template, the independent Cu/Ni/Au film is devolved to an ITO substrate as an effective non-enzyme glucose detection sensor. The sensor has good electrocatalytic performance with two specific linear ranges of 0.5 μM to 3.0 mM and 3.0–7.0 mM and high sensitivities of 4135 and 2972 μA mM−1 cm−2, respectively. The lower detection limit was 0.1 μM with a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. Additionally, the sensor features excellent selectivity and stability. These satisfactory results indicate that Cu/Ni/Au film is a promising platform for the development of non-enzymatic glucose sensors. Ordered nanoporous Cu/Ni/Au film prepared by template method could be transferred and used as an effective glucose sensor.![]()

Abstract
A highly sensitive electrochemical sensor is described for the determination of H2O2. It is based on based on the use of polyaniline that was generated in-situ and within 1 min on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) with the aid of the Fe(II)/H2O2 system. Initially, a 2-dimensional composite was prepared from graphene oxide and polyamidoamine dendrimer through covalent interaction. It was employed as a carrier for Fe(II) ions. Then, the nanocomposite was drop-coated onto the surface of the GCE. When exposed to H2O2, the Fe(II) on the GCE is converted to Fe(III), and free hydroxy radicals are formed. The Fe(III) ions and the hydroxy radicals catalyze the oxidation of aniline to produce electroactive polyaniline on the GCE. The resulting sensor, best operated at a working potential as low as 50 mV (vs. SCE) which excludes interference by dissolved oxygen, has a linear response in the 500 nM to 2 mM H2O2 concentration range, and the detection limit is 180 nM. The sensor was successfully applied to the determination of H2O2 in spiked milk and fetal bovine serum samples.

Abstract
A method is described for the preparation of a nanocomposite material consisting of cuprous oxide/polyaniline/reduced graphene oxide (Cu2O/PANI/rGO). Aniline was employed as both the precursor for PANI and the reducing agent for Cu2+ and graphene oxide. A glassy carbon electrode was modified with the nanocomposite material. Chronoamperometric studies with the modified electrode showed it to enable an efficient electroreduction of hydrogen peroxide at -0.2 V vs. saturated calomel electrode. All measurements were performed in the absence of oxygen. Figures of merit include a wide linear response range (0.8 μM to 12.78 mM) and a low limit of detection of 0.5 μM (S/N = 3).

Abstract
Since an unbalanced excess of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) causes various diseases, determination of antioxidants that can counter oxidative stress is important in food and biological analyses. Optical/electrochemical nanosensors have attracted attention in antioxidant activity (AOA) assessment because of their increased sensitivity and selectivity. Optical sensors offer advantages such as low cost, flexibility, remote control, speed, miniaturization and on-site/in situ analysis. Electrochemical sensors using noble metal nanoparticles on modified electrodes better catalyze bioelectrochemical reactions. We summarize the design principles of colorimetric sensors and nanoprobes for food antioxidants (including electron-transfer based and ROS/RNS scavenging assays) and important milestones contributed by our laboratory. We present novel sensors and nanoprobes together with their mechanisms and analytical performances. Our colorimetric sensors for AOA measurement made use of cupric-neocuproine and ferric-phenanthroline complexes immobilized on a Nafion membrane. We recently designed an optical oxidant/antioxidant sensor using N,N-dimethyl-p-phenylene diamine (DMPD) as probe, from which ROS produced colored DMPD-quinone cationic radicals electrostatically retained on a Nafion membrane. The attenuation of initial color by antioxidants enabled indirect AOA estimation. The surface plasmon resonance absorption of silver nanoparticles as a result of enlargement of citrate-reduced seed particles by antioxidant addition enabled a linear response of AOA. We determined biothiols with Ellman reagent-derivatized gold nanoparticles.

Abstract
Chemiresistive sensors are becoming increasingly important as they offer an inexpensive option to conventional analytical instrumentation, they can be readily integrated into electronic devices, and they have low power requirements. Nanowires (NWs) are a major theme in chemosensor development. High surface area, interwire junctions, and restricted conduction pathways give intrinsically high sensitivity and new mechanisms to transduce the binding or action of analytes. This Review details the status of NW chemosensors with selected examples from the literature. We begin by proposing a principle for understanding electrical transport and transduction mechanisms in NW sensors. Next, we offer the reader a review of device performance parameters. Then, we consider the different NW types followed by a summary of NW assembly and different device platform architectures. Subsequently, we discuss NW functionalization strategies. Finally, we propose future developments in NW sensing to address selectivity, sensor drift, sensitivity, response analysis, and emerging applications.

Abstract
Au/Cu2O nanocomposites were successfully synthesized by a facile one-pot redox reaction without additional reducing agent under room temperature. The morphologies and structures of the as-prepared products were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The electrocatalytic performance of Au/Cu2O nanocomposites towards hydrogen peroxide was evaluated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometry (CA). The prepared Au/Cu2O nanocomposite electrode showed a wide linear range from 25 to 11.2 mM (R = 0.9989) with a low detection limit of 1.05 μM (S/N = 3) and high sensitivity of 292.89 mA mM(-1) cm(-2). The enhanced performance for H2O2 detection can be attributed to the introduction of Au and the synergistic effect between Au and Cu2O. It is demonstrated that the Au/Cu2O nanocomposites material could be a promising candidate for H2O2 detection.

Abstract
Electrochemical devices using as substrates copier grade transparency sheets are developed by using ion conducting Nafion: polypyrrole mixtures, deposited between gold bottom electrodes and upper electrodes based on Multi Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs). The electrical properties of the Nafion:polypyrrole blends and of the gold/Nafion:polypyrrole/MWCNTs devices are investigated under dry conditions and in deionized water by means of frequency dependent impedance measurements and time domain electrical characterization. According to current-voltage measurements carried out in deionized water, the steady state current forms cycles characterized by redox peaks, the intensity and position of which reversibly change in response to H2O2, with a lower detection limit in the micromolar range. The sensitivity that is obtained is comparable with that of other electrochemical sensors that however, unlike our devices, require supporting electrolytes.
