Abstract
Owing to the considerable potential of photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensors, they have gained significant attention in the analysis of biological, environmental, and food markers. However, the limited charge mass transfer efficiency and rapid recombination of electron hole pairs have become obstacles in the development of PEC sensors. In this case, considering the unique advantages of carbon-based materials, they can be used as photosensitizers, supporting materials and conductive substrates and coupled with semiconductors to prepare composite materials, solving the above problems. In addition, there are many types of carbon materials, which can have semiconductor properties and form heterojunctions after coupling with semiconductors, effectively promoting the separation of electron hole pairs. Herein, we aimed to provide a comprehensive analysis of reports on carbon-based PEC sensors by introducing their research and application status and discussing future development trends in this field. In particular, the types and performance improvement strategies of carbon-based electrodes and the working principles of carbon-based PEC sensors are explained. Furthermore, the applications of carbon-based photoelectric sensors in environmental monitoring, biomedicine, and food detection are highlighted. Finally, the current limitations in the research on carbon-based PEC sensors are emphasized and the need to enhance the sensitivity and selectivity through material modification, structural design, improved device performance, and other strategies are emphasized.

Abstract
With rapidly increasing environmental pollution, there is an urgent need for the development of fast, low-cost, and effective sensing devices for the detection of various organic and inorganic substances. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are well known for their superior optoelectronic and physicochemical properties, and have, therefore, attracted a great deal of interest in the sensor arena. The introduction of AgNPs onto the surface of two-dimensional (2D) structures, incorporation into conductive polymers, or within three-dimensional (3D) nanohybrid architectures is a common strategy to fabricate novel platforms with improved chemical and physical properties for analyte sensing. In the first section of this review, the main wet chemical reduction approaches for the successful synthesis of functional AgNPs for electrochemical sensing applications are discussed. Then, a brief section on the sensing principles of voltammetric and amperometric sensors is given. The current utilization of silver nanoparticles and silver-based composite nanomaterials for the fabrication of voltammetric and amperometric sensors as novel platforms for the detection of environmental pollutants in water matrices is summarized. Finally, the current challenges and future directions for the nanosilver-based electrochemical sensing of environmental pollutants are outlined.

Abstract
AbstractAn epoxy-functionalized beta type nanozeolite (BEA)/graphene oxide nanocomposite modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE/BEA/APTMS/GA/GO/NF) has been created for the differential pulse voltammetric determination of bisphenol E (BPE). The modified electrode presented an enhanced current response in comparison with bare GCE. A linear dependence of anodic peak current (Ip) and scan rate (ν) was observed, which showed that the electrochemical process was adsorption-controlled. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) was employed and optimized for the sensitive determination of BPE. Under the optimized conditions, the anodic peak current was linearly proportional to BPE concentration in the range between 0.07 and 4.81 µM, with a correlation coefficient of 0.995 and limit of detection 0.056 μM (S/N = 3). The electrode showed good repeatability and storage stability, and a low response to interfering compounds. Comparison was made to the determination of bisphenol A. To confirm the electrode analytical performance, recovery tests were performed, and deviations lower than 10% were found. The BEA zeolite-GO nanocomposite proved to be a promising sensing platform for bisphenol determination.

Abstract
In this study, a simple, one-pot, and eco-friendly biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was accomplished with the use of aqueous leaves extract of Cestrum nocturnum L.(AECN). Different techniques like ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometry, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and scanning area electron diffraction were used to investigate the optical, operational, and physical properties of the green synthesized AECN-AgNPs.The AECN-AgNPs were further used for the detection of Hg2+ by UV-Vis and electrochemical methods. The disintegration of the AECN-AgNPs solution caused the formation of an Ag-Hg amalgam, which caused discoloration of the solution. Sensing performance for a variety of metals such as Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Ni2+, Cu 2+, Fe3+, Zn2+, Co2+, Cd2+, Pb2+, As3+, and Mn2+ at 10-mM concentrations was measured in order to determine the selectivity of the sensor towards the Hg2+. For the electrochemical determination of 2 + Hg2+ , AECN-AgNPs were immobilized on a glassy carbon (GC) electrode, and the resulting modified electrode (GC/AECN-AgNPs) was characterized by cyclic voltammetry. This phenomenon is advantageously used for the sensitive determination of trace level Hg2+. GC/AECN-AgNPs demonstrated a linear calibration range of 100 nM to 10 μM and a limit of detection of 21 nM for Hg2+ determination.

Abstract
Organic pollutants (OPs) have garnered a considerable amount of attention in recent times due to their extreme toxicity toward humans and the ecosystem. The need for an inexpensive yet robust, sensitive, selective, and easy-to-operate method for detecting OPs remains a challenge. Herein, a portable electrochemical sensor is proposed based on manganese porphyrin-functionalized carbon cloth (CC). To explain the electrochemical performance of the sensor, cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) were employed. The presence of manganese(III) ion in the center of the porphyrin ligand acted as an agent for the transfer of electrons and enhanced sensitivity toward analyte-specific redox catalysis. Moreover, it allowed for the concurrent detection of multiple analytes in a complex environment. The modified CC electrode can selectively detect nitroaromatic and phenolic compounds with accessible data collected through wireless means onto a smartphone device. The as-synthesized electrode demonstrated a higher sensitivity toward the detection of nitrobenzene (NB) and aqueous phenol with a limit of detection (LOD) found to be 5.9268 × 10-10 M and 4.0178 × 10-10 M, respectively. Additionally, our proposed portable electrochemical sensor demonstrates a high selectivity and reproducibility toward nitroaromatic and phenolic compounds, which can be employed in real complex water samples. With regard to the sensor's remarkable electrochemical performance, it is envisaged that such a sensor could pave the way for environmental point of care (POC) testing.

Abstract
Foodborne-related infections due to additives and pollutants pose a considerable task for food processing enterprises. Therefore, the competent, cost-effective, and quick investigation of nutrition additives and contaminants is essential to reduce the threat of public fitness problems. The electrochemical sensor (ECS) shows facile and potent analytical approaches desirable for food protection and quality inspection over traditional methods. The consequence of a broad display of nanomaterials has paved the path for their relevance in designing high-performance ECSs appliances for medical diagnostics and conditions and food protection. This review article has discussed the importance of electrochemical-based sensors amplified with carbon-based nanomaterials (CNMs). Initially, we have demonstrated the types of pharmaceutical and food/agriculture pollutants (such as pesticides, heavy metals, antibiotics and other medical drugs) present in water. Subsequently, we have compiled the information on electrochemical techniques (such as voltammetric and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy) and their crucial parameters for detecting pollutants. Further, the applications of CNMs for sensing pharmaceutical and food pollutants have been demonstrated in detail. Finally, the topic has been concluded with existing challenges and future prospects.

Abstract
In this work, an HB pencil electrode (HBPE) was electrochemically modified by amino acids (AAs) glycine (GLY) and aspartic acid (ASA) and designated as GLY-HB and ASA-HB electrodes. They were used in the detection of dihydroxybenzene isomers (DHBIs) such as hydroquinone (HQ), catechol (CC), and resorcinol (RS), by cyclic voltammetry (CV), and by differential pulse voltammetry. HBPE was characterized by scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. These three electrodes showed a linear relationship of current with concentration of DHBIs, and the electrochemical processes were diffusion controlled in all cases. In simultaneous detection, the limit of detection, based on signal-to-noise ratio (S/N = 3), for HQ, CC, and RS was 12.473, 16.132, and 25.25 μM, respectively, at bare HBPE; 5.498, 7.119, and 14.794 μM, respectively, at GLY-HB; and 22.459, 25.478, and 38.303 μM, respectively, at ASA-HB. The sensitivity for HQ, CC, and RS was 470.481, 363.781, and 232.416 μA/mM/cm2, respectively, at bare HBPE; 364.785, 282.712, and 135.560 μA/mM/cm2, respectively, at GLY-HB; and 374.483, 330.108, and 219.574, respectively, at ASA-HB. The interference studies clarified the suitability and reliability of the electrodes for the detection of HQ, CC, and RS in an environmental system. Real sample analysis was done using tap water, and the proposed electrodes expressed recovery with high reproducibility. Meanwhile, these three electrodes have excellent sensitivity and selectivity, which can be used as a promising technique for the detection of DHBIs simultaneously.

Abstract
Rapid, convenient, and sensitive detection of Bisphenol A (BPA) in complex environmental samples without the need for tedious pre-treatment is crucial for assessing potential health risks. Herein, we present an electrochemical sensing platform using a simple nanochannel-modified electrode, which enables the direct and sensitive detection of BPA in complex samples. A vertically ordered mesoporous silica-nanochannel film (VMSF) with high-density nanochannels is rapidly and stably grown on the surface of a electrochemically activated glassy carbon electrode (p-GCE) by using the electrochemically assisted self-assembly (EASA) method. The high antifouling capability of the VMSF/p-GCE sensor is proven by investigating the electrochemical behavior of BPA in the presence of model coexisting interfering molecules including amylum, protein, surfactant, and humic acid. The VMSF/p-GCE sensor can sensitively detect BPA ranged from 50 to 1.0 μM and 1.0–10.0 μM, with low detection limits (15 nM). Owing to the electrocatalytic performance and high potential resolution of p-GCE, the sensor exhibits high selectivity for BPA detection in the presence of common environmental pollutants, including bisphenol S (BPS), catechol (CC), hydroquinone (HQ), and 4-nitrophenol (4-NP). In combination with the good antifouling property of the VMSF, direct detection of BPA in environmental water samples and soil leaching solution (SLS) is also realized without separation pretreatment. The developed VMSF/p-GCE sensor demonstrated advantages of simple structure, high sensitivity, good antifouling performance, and great potential in direct electroanalysis of endocrine-disrupting compounds in complex samples.

Abstract
The design of an efficient electrocatalyst for effective trace level determinations of noxious synthetic and or biological compounds is the unceasingly noteworthy conceptual approach for rapid technology. In this work, we designed a magnesium-aluminum layered double hydroxides (Mg-Al LDHs) nanocatalyst and applied it to the electrocatalytic determination of an extremely carcinogenic catechol sensor. A coprecipitation method was employed for synthesizing the nanocatalyst, and the structure, porous nature, and morphology were confirmed by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, N2 adsorption-desorption isotherm, field emission-scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The elemental composition was observed by energy dispersive X-ray analysis. The electrochemical studies were investigated with the help of cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry techniques. The Mg-Al LDHs-based electrocatalyst was used to detect catechol by electrochemical measurements with different parameters. The proposed catechol sensor shows a wide dynamic range (0.007-200 μM) with a lower level of detection (2.3 nm) and sensitivity (3.57 μA μM-1 cm-2). The excellent sensor performance is attributed to the high surface area, fast electron transfer, more active sites, and excellent flexibility. This study depicts the proposed sensor as probable to practical in a scientific investigation. In addition, the modified electrode showed greater selectivity and was used in the detection of fatal contaminants in instant treatment strategies. Moreover, the Mg-Al LDHs confirmed auspicious real sample scrutiny with noteworthy retrieval outcomes in lake water samples which exposed improved consequences.

Abstract
Chicken poultry industry produces a vast amount of feather waste and is often disposed into landfills, creating environmental pollution. Therefore, we explored the valorization of chicken feather waste into lipids and keratinous sludge biomass. This study demonstrates the successful utilization of keratinous sludge biomass as a unique precursor for the facile preparation of novel keratinous sludge biomass-derived carbon-based molybdenum oxide (KSC@MoO3) nanocomposite material using two-step (hydrothermal and co-pyrolysis) processes. The surface morphology and electrochemical properties of as-prepared nanocomposite material were analyzed using HR-SEM, XRD, XPS, and cyclic voltammetric techniques. KSC@MoO3 nanocomposite exhibited prominent electrocatalytic behavior to simultaneously determine hydroquinone (HQ) and catechol (CC) in environmental waters. The as-prepared electrochemical sensor showed excellent performance towards the detection of HQ and CC with broad concentration ranges between 0.5-176.5 μM (HQ and CC), and the detection limits achieved were 0.063 μM (HQ) and 0.059 μM (CC). Furthermore, the developed modified electrode has exhibited excellent stability and reproducibility and was also applied to analyze HQ and CC in environmental water samples. Results revealed that chicken feather waste valorization could result in sustainable biomass conversion into a high-value nanomaterial to develop a cost-effective electrochemical environmental monitoring sensor and lipids for biofuel.

Abstract
A rapid, simple, and sensitive voltammetric sensor has been fabricated to determine Rhodamine B (RhB), a textile coloring agent. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized by the chemical reduction method of silver nitrate and sodium citrate. Graphene nanoplatelets (GPLs) and AgNPs were drop-casted on the surface of a working electrode of a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE), forming the SPCE-GPLs/AgNPs samples. Scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray and cyclic voltammetry confirmed the altered surface of the SPCE. The square wave voltammetry was used for the electrochemical determination of RhB. The SPCE-GPLs/AgNPs demonstrated electrochemical responses to detect RhB with a linear range of 2-100 μM, and the limit of detection was 1.94 μM. The SPCE-GPLs/AgNPs demonstrated a selective detection of RhB in the presence of common interfering compounds present in the food samples, including sucrose and monosodium glutamate. Furthermore, the sensor presented good reproducibility as well as repeatability in the detection of RhB. When the sensor was used to determine RhB in an actual food sample, similar results were shown as suggested by UV-vis spectroscopy analysis. Hence, the fabricated sensor can be applied for the detection of RhB in food samples.

Abstract
The production of environmentally friendly silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) has aroused the interest of the scientific community due to their wide applications mainly in the field of environmental pollution detection and water quality monitoring. Here, for the first time, five plant leaf extracts were used for the synthesis of AgNPs such as Basil, Geranium, Eucalyptus, Melia, and Ruta by a simple and eco-friendly method. Stable AgNPs were obtained by adding a silver nitrate (AgNO3) solution with the leaves extract as reducers, stabilizers and cappers. Only, within ten minutes of reaction, the yellow mixture changed to brown due to the reduction of Ag+ ions to Ag atoms. The optical, structural, and morphology characteristics of synthesized AgNPs were determined using a full technique like UV-visible spectroscopy, FTIR spectrum, XRD, EDX spectroscopy, and the SEM. Thus, Melia azedarach was found to exhibit smaller nanoparticles (AgNPs-M), which would be interesting for electrochemical application. So, a highly sensitive electrochemical sensor based on AgNPs-M modified GCE for phenol determination in water samples was developed, indicating that the AgNPs-M displayed good electrocatalytic activity. The developed sensor showed good sensing performances: a high sensitivity, a low LOD of 0.42 µM and good stability with a lifetime of about one month, as well as a good selectivity towards BPA and CC (with a deviation less than 10%) especially for nanoplastics analysis in the water contained in plastics bottles. The obtained results are repeatable and reproducible with RSDs of 5.49% and 3.18% respectively. Besides, our developed sensor was successfully applied for the determination of phenol in tap and mineral water samples. The proposed new approach is highly recommended to develop a simple, cost effective, ecofriendly, and highly sensitive sensor for the electrochemical detection of phenol which can further broaden the applications of green silver NPs.

Abstract
The survival of living beings, including humanity, depends on a continuous supply of clean water. However, due to the development of industry, agriculture, and population growth, an increasing number of wastewaters is discarded, and the negative effects of such actions are clear. The first step in solving this situation is the collection and monitoring of pollutants in water bodies to subsequently facilitate their treatment. Nonetheless, traditional sensing techniques are typically laboratory‐based, leading to potential diminishment in analysis quality. In this paper, the most recent developments in micro‐ and nano‐electrochemical devices for pollutant detection in wastewater are reviewed. The devices reviewed are based on a variety of electrodes and the sensing of three different categories of pollutants: nutrients and phenolic compounds, heavy metals, and organic matter. From these electrodes, Cu, Co, and Bi showed promise as versatile materials to detect a grand variety of contaminants. Also, the most commonly used material is glassy carbon, present in the detection of all reviewed analytes.

Abstract
N-doped nickel carbide spheres (N-NiCSs) were synthesised for the first time by controlling the type of surfactant, surfactant-to-Ni molar ratio, reaction temperature, and reaction time. The morphology, composition, and electrochemical behaviour of the synthesised spheres revealed that the spheres presented a large specific surface area, abundant pores, and good conductivity, with excellent electrocatalytic performance. A glassy carbon electrode-modified with N-NiCSs was used for the simultaneous identification of hydroquinone (HQ), catechol (CC), and resorcinol (RS) utilising differential pulse voltammetry. The oxidation peaks of HQ, CC, and RS were observed at 9.8, 119, and 470 mV, respectively (vs. SCE). Under optimal conditions, the oxidation peak currents of HQ, CC, and RS were linear in the concentration ranges of 0.005-100 μM, 0.05-200 μM, and 5-500 μM, respectively. The detection limits of HQ, CC, and RS were 0.00152 μM, 0.015 μM, and 0.24 μM (S/N = 3), respectively. The sensitivities of HQ, CC, and RS were 4.635, 2.069, and 0.985 μA μM-1 cm-2 (S/N = 3), respectively. The fabricated sensor was successfully used to detect HQ, CC, and RS in hair dye, whitening cream, and local tap water samples. Moreover, the sensor presented a good repeatability, reproducibility, and stability during cosmetic testing and a relatively wide linear range, an ultralow detection limit, and an ultrahigh sensitivity.

Abstract
The ternary NiCoAl hydrotalcite (NiCoAl-LDH) was combined with carboxylic multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) to fabricate a novel electrochemical sensor for simultaneously determining the co-existing trace phenolic substances. The morphology, structure, and electrochemical behavior of the as-prepared materials were characterized by various techniques. Benefitting from the great conductivity of MWCNT and high electrocatalytic activity of NiCoAl-LDH for phenolic substances, the advanced MWCNT/NiCoAl-LDH sensor presented a fast response, high sensitivity, excellent stability, and satisfactory replicability. The sensor offered good linear responses in the ranges1.50~600 μM to hydroquinone (HQ), 5.00~1.03 × 103 μM to catechol (CC), and 6.00 × 10-2~250 μM to bisphenol A (BPA). The detection limits of HQ, CC, and BPA were 0.4, 0.8, and 6. × 10-3 μM (S/N = 3), respectively. In environmental water, the sensor achieved satisfactory recoveries for the simultaneous detection of HQ (98.6~101%), CC (98.0~101%), and BPA (97.5~101%), with relative standard deviations less than 4.4%.

Abstract
The present study introduces a novel nanocomposite based on reduced graphene oxide, nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots, and palladium and silver nanoparticles (rGO/NGQD/AgPd) as an electrocatalyst toward nitrite oxidation reaction. Metal nanoparticles were prepared via a green one-pot photochemical reduction procedure utilizing UV light and NGQD simultaneously as a reducing and directing agent. Formation of the nanocomposite was thoroughly demonstrated by the FT-IR, XRD, Raman, XPS, FE-SEM, and TEM characterization tests. Various electrochemical tests evaluated the efficiency of the prepared sensing platform on the surface of a gold working electrode. Sensitivity and limit of detection (LOD) were calculated to be 0.854 μA.μM-1.cm-2 and 0.052 μM, respectively, from the chronoamperometry data. Finally, the proposed sensor was successfully applied for the determination of nitrite ions in river and mineral water samples as natural water sources.

Abstract
We report CNT/Al2O3 core-shell nanostructures for the electrochemical detection of dihydroxybenzene (DHB) isomers. Amorphous films of Al2O3 (1.2-15.4 nm in thickness) are uniformly deposited onto the inner and outer walls of CNTs by atomic layer deposition. The effect of the Al2O3 shell thickness on the electrochemical detection of dihydroxybenzene isomers was explored using cyclic and square-wave voltammetry. The best sensing properties are found at a shell thickness of approx. 2.4 nm (CNT/Al2O3(9) sensor), where the oxidation peak currents (sensor-signal) increased ca. 10 times as compared to a sensor fabricated with non-coated CNTs. All of the three DHB isomers (hydroquinone, catechol and resorcinol) are independently detected in the concentration ranges of 2-1000 μmol L-1, 0.5-700 μmol L-1 and 3.5-500 μmol L-1, respectively. The sensors show reliable repeatability, reproducibility, long-term stability, and applicability in the analysis of real samples. Based on these findings, a plausible mechanism is proposed highlighting the role of the Al2O3-shell.

Abstract
A molecularly imprinted paper-based analytical device (MIP-μPAD) was developed for the sensing of bisphenol A (BPA). The platform was screen-printed onto a filter paper support, where the electrodes and the fluorescence μPADs were designed. Owing to its dual electrochemical and fluorescence responses, molecularly imprinted curcumin nanoparticles were used to sense BPA. The μPAD design was characterized by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, and electrochemical techniques. The sensor design comprised a wide linear range from 1 to 200 μg L-1 with limits of detection of 0.47 ± 0.2 and 0.62 ± 0.3 μg L-1 (LOD, S/N = 3) for electrochemical and fluorescence sensing, respectively. Furthermore, the system showed good analytical performance such as selectivity, stability, and reproducibility. The feasibility of the MIP-μPAD was demonstrated for the sensing of BPA in seawater, foods, and polycarbonate plastic packaged water with recovery values of 97.2 and 101.8%.

ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2021; 207:111251.

Abstract
A mildly one-pot method is developed for the synthesis of quasi-networked Au1.5Pt1Co1 ternary alloy nanoparticles (TANPs) at room temperature through the co-reduction of AuCl4-, PtCl6- and Co2+ with hydrazine hydrate. Characterizations of XRD, XPS, HRTEM, EDS and SAED successfully reveal the crystal structure, composition, valence and morphology of Au1.5Pt1Co1 TANPs, respectively. The glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified by Au1.5Pt1Co1 TANPs with good dispersion and multi-density surface defects occupies the optimal electrochemical active surface area (ECSA). After the coated poly-L-cysteine (P-L-Cys) film on the Au1.5Pt1Co1/GCE surface, the morphology, element mapping and surface roughness of the P-L-Cys/Au1.5Pt1Co1/GCE are investigated via FESEM and AFM to verify continuous electrode modification processes. The electrochemical behaviors of the composite electrode for hydroquinone (HQ) are evaluated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) with interfacial properties of adsorption and diffusion. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) for HQ electrochemical sensing at 0.10 V (vs. SCE) exhibits two linear response ranges from 0.1 to 30 and 30-200 μM, respectively. A low detection limit (S/N = 3) of 0.045 μM is obtained with a sensitivity of 4.247 μA μM-1·cm-2. The resulting P-L-Cys/Au1.5Pt1Co1/GCE also presents ascendant selectivity, repeatability, reproducibility and stability. In addition, the established method is applied to the assessment of the HQ level in real water samples (mineral water, tap water and lake water) with the satisfactory results of spiked recoveries. The sensor may become a promising tool for the trace analysis of the electroactive substance in food or environmental samples.

Abstract
Rapid, on-site detection of emerging pollutants is critical for monitoring health threats and the environment, especially if performed through autonomous systems. In this paper, we report on a new design of a complete electrochemical system whose working (WE), auxiliary (AE) and reference (RE) electrodes were obtained on a pen (PEN Sensor) made with graphite:polyurethane (GPUE). Working electrodes were decorated with spherical, ca. 200 nm silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) reduced on graphite using the polyol method. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) was used to detect bisphenol-A (BPA) in a linear range from 2.5 to 15 μmol L-1 with detection limit of 0.24 μmol L-1. The PEN Sensor could also detect bisphenol-A in tap and river water samples, with satisfactory reproducibility and repeatability, while common interferents did not affect electrooxidation of bisphenol-A. The high sensitivity and rapid detection are suitable for real-time analysis and in loco monitoring of emerging pollutants. With their robustness and versatility, PEN Sensors such as those fabricated here may be integrated into futuristic smart robotic systems.

Abstract
The aim of this research was synthesizing of bacterial cellulose (BC) nanohybrids by incorporation of CuO-NPs and evaluation of their ability in the removing of microbial, heavy metals, and dyes pollutants from water. CuO-BC nanohybrids were synthesized by two in situ (sonochemical and precipitation) methods and compared with ex situ synthesized nanohybrid. FE-SEM images revealed that the growth of CuO-NPs in the sonochemically synthesized in situ substrate is better. The ex situ nanohybrid had the highest loading capacity (27.17 μg/cm2 ) but the migration of CuO-NPs from this substrate was higher than in situ ones. According to antimicrobial tests, 80% and 90% of initial population of E. coli and S. aureus, respectively, were removed after 6 hr contact of substrates with water. The potential of the substrates in the adsorption of lead and arsenic was about 60% after 24 hr. About 75% of methylene blue and methyl orange dyes were adsorbed into substrates after 6 hr. CuO doped substrates had the photocatalytic activity and caused to decrease the oxygen content about 4%-7% during 6 hr. In general, the reusability of ex situ synthesized substrate was lower than in situ nanohybrids. Sonochemically synthesized substrate was suggested as the best nanohybrid for water purification applications in terms of morphological properties and reusability. PRACTITIONER POINTS: CuO-BC nanohybrids were prepared by in-situ and ex-situ methods. Well distribution of NPs and slower release was achieved by in-situ methods. Antimicrobial and photocatalytic activity of ex-situ nanohybrid was higher than in-situ ones. Dyes and heavy metals were removed successfully with nanohybrid substrates. Sonochemical in-situ nanohybrid exhibited the best water purification performance.

Abstract
![]()
The detection of volatile organic
compounds with electrochemical
gas sensors is still very challenging regarding their sensitivity,
selectivity, and operation at room temperature. There is a need for
robust, sensitive, inexpensive, and yet easy-to-operate sensors for
phenol and other phenolic compounds that function reliably under ambient
conditions. Herein, we present a phenol gas sensor based on a combination
of a semisolid, alkaline sodium polyacrylate, and commercial screen-printed
electrodes. Sodium polyacrylate was employed as a multifunctional
sensing material serving as a (i) gel-like electrolyte, (ii) accumulation
milieu, and (iii) derivatization medium. Under ambient conditions,
the sensor showed excellent sensitivity in the low ppbv (μg
m–3) range, a good linear operation in the examined
concentration range of 0.1–1.0 ppmv for up to 105 min accumulation,
and low sensitivity toward examined interferences. The sensor also
indicated a possibility to differentiate between several phenolic
compounds based on their oxidation potential. Given its favorable
electroanalytical performance, a strong application potential is envisioned
in topical fields such as environmental monitoring, cultural heritage
preservation, and occupational health and safety.

Abstract
Endocrine disruptors (EDCs) are substances existing in the environment which affect animal and human endocrine functions and cause diseases. A small quantity of EDCs can have a serious impact on the body. Currently, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and other traditional methods are used to detect EDCs. Although their sensitivity and reliability are good, these methods are complex, expensive, and not feasible to use in the field. Electrochemical techniques present good potential for the detection of EDCs owing to their low cost, simple, and wearable instrumentation. This paper presents the new trends in this field over the last 3 years. Some simple materials can allow some EDCs to be directly detected. New designs of biosensors, such as aptasensors, allow a femtomolar limit of detection to be reached. Many types of nanomaterial-based sensors were tested; carbonaceous nanomaterials, such as multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO), associated or not with other types of nanoparticles were included in numerous designs. Molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP)-based sensors constitute an emerging field. All the presented electrochemical sensors were successfully tested for the detection of EDCs in different types of real samples.

Abstract
Simultaneous speciation of benzenediol isomers (BDIs), 1,2-benzenediol (catechol, CC), 1,3-benzenediol (resorcinol, RS), and 1,4-benzenediol (hydroquinone, HQ), was investigated by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) using a graphite paste electrode (GPE) modified with Prussian blue-polyaniline nanocomposite. The modified GPE showed good stability, sensitivity, and selectivity properties for all the three BDIs. Prussian blue-doped nanosized polyaniline (PBNS-PANI) was synthesized first by using mechanochemical reactions between aniline and ferric chloride hexahydrate as the oxidants and then followed by the addition of potassium hexacyanoferrate(II) in a solid-state and template-free technique. The material was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The DPV measurements are performed in phosphate electrolyte solution with pH 4.0 at a potential range of - 0.1 to 1.0 V. The proposed modified electrode displayed a strong, stable, and continuous three well-separated oxidation peaks towards electrooxidation at potentials 0.20, 0.31, and 0.76 V for HQ, CC, and RS, respectively. The calibration curves were linear from 1 to 350.5 μM for both HQ and CC, while for RS, it was from 2 to 350.5 μM. The limit of detection was determined to be 0.18, 0.01, and 0.02 μM for HQ, CC, and RS, respectively. The analytical performance of the PBNS-PANI/GPE has been evaluated for simultaneous determination of HQ, CC, and RS in creek water, commercial hair dye, and skin whitening cream samples with satisfactory recoveries between 90 and 106%. Overall, we demonstrated that the presence of NS-PANI and PB resulted in a large redox-active surface area that enabled a promising analytical platform for simultaneous detection of BDIs.

Abstract
A versatile electrochemical sensor based on titanium carbide (Ti3C2) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) nanocomposite was constructed to detection catechol (CT) and hydroquinone (HQ). To prepare this novel nanocomposite, a self-assembled process was conducted by blending two-dimensional (2D) hierarchical Ti3C2 and MWCNTs under ultrasonic-assisted. X-ray diffraction (XRD), High resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM) and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) methods as well as electrochemical technique, such as Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) were performed to characterize the Ti3C2-MWCNTs nanocomposite and illuminate the electrochemical oxidation process. Under the optimum conditions, wide linear range from 2 μM to 150 μM for both HQ and CT and low detection limit of 6.6 nM for HQ and 3.9 nM (S/N = 3) for CT have been achieved. Impressively, the sensor possesses superior selectivity, ultra-stability, and good repeatability, which was successfully applied for detecting CT and HQ in real industrial waste water sample with recovery of 96.9%-104.7% and 93.1%-109.9% for HQ and CT, respectively. Hence, Ti3C2 nanosheeets were proved to be a promising platform to construct electrochemical oxidation sensor in environmental analyses and phenolic isomers detection.

Abstract
Hydroquinone (HQ), a phenolic compound is expansively used in many industrial applications and due to the utilization of HQ, water pollution tragedies frequently found by the improper handling and accidental outflows. When HQ is adsorbed directly through the skin that create toxic effects to human by affecting kidney, liver, lungs, and urinary tract and hence, a highly selective and sensitive technique is required for its quantification. Herein, we have developed the ultrasonic synthesis of copper oxide nanoflakes (CuO-NFs) using ultrasonic bath (20 kHz, 100 W) and successfully employed for the sensitive detection of the environmental hazardous pollutant HQ. The formed CuO-NFs were confirmed by X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), FT-IR spectroscopy and UV-visible spectroscopy and fabricated with the screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE). The SEM images exhibited the uniform CuO-NFs with an average width of 85 nm. The linker-free CuO-NFs fabricated electrode showed the appropriate wide range of concentrations from 0.1 to 1400 µM and the limit of detection was found to be 10.4 nM towards HQ. The fabricated sensor having long term stability and sensitivity was successfully applied for the environmental and commercial real sample analysis and exhibited good recovery percentage, implying that the SPCE/CuO-NFs is an economically viable and benign robust scaffold for the determination of HQ.

Abstract
The authors report a non-enzymatic electrochemical sensor based on a sliver nanoparticle-decorated carbon nanotube (AgNPs-MWCNT). Highly-dispersed AgNPs were loaded on the MWCNT surface though a simple and facile two-step method. The morphology, components, and the size of the AgNPs-MWCNT nanocomposite were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and ICP analysis. Benefitting from the synergistic effect between the AgNPs and MWCNT, the AgNPs-MWCNT nanocomposite exhibited high electrocatalytic activity for H2O2; the AgNPs-MWCNT electrochemical sensor was prepared by coating the AgNPs-MWCNT nanocomposite on a glassy carbon electrode, and it showed a fast and sensitive response to H2O2 with a linear range of 1 to 1000 μM. The detection limit was 0.38 μM (S/N = 3). The sensor was applied to detect H2O2 in spiked human blood serum samples with satisfactory results.
