THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 950:174252. [PMID: 38942304 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.174252] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2024] [Revised: 06/06/2024] [Accepted: 06/22/2024] [Indexed: 06/30/2024]
Abstract
The agricultural sector plays a pivotal role in driving the economy of many developing countries. Any dent in this economical structure may have a severe impact on a country's population. With rising climate change and increasing pollution, the agricultural sector is experiencing significant damage. Over time this cumulative damage will affect the integrity of food crops and create food security issues around the world. Therefore, an early warning system is needed to detect possible stress on food crops. Here we present a review of the recent developments in nanomaterial-based Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) substrates which could be utilized to monitor agricultural crop responses to natural and anthropogenic stress. Initially, our review delves into diverse and cost-effective strategies for fabricating SERS substrates, emphasizing their intelligent utilization across various agricultural scenarios. In the second phase of our review, we spotlight the specific application of SERS in addressing critical food security issues. By detecting nutrients, hormones, and effector molecules in plants, SERS provides valuable insights into plant health. Furthermore, our exploration extends to the detection of contaminants, chemicals, and foodborne pathogens within plants, showcasing the versatility of SERS in ensuring food safety. The cumulative knowledge derived from these discussions illustrates the transformative potential of SERS in bolstering the agricultural economy. By enhancing precision in nutrient management, monitoring plant health, and enabling rapid detection of harmful substances, SERS emerges as a pivotal tool in promoting sustainable and secure agricultural practices. Its integration into agricultural processes not only augments productivity but also establishes a robust defence against potential threats to crop yield and food quality. As SERS continues to evolve, its role in shaping the future of agriculture becomes increasingly pronounced, promising a paradigm shift in how we approach and address challenges in food production and safety.

Abstract
This study aimed to detect and quantify thiabendazole in soy products by surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) coupled with electrospun substrates. Enhanced Raman signals were acquired from uniform electrospun substrates, which were analyzed by focusing on the CN stretching modes at 1592 cm-1 for soy sauce and 1580 cm-1 for soy milk. The results revealed a linear relationship between the signal intensity and analyte concentrations with high R2 values (99.42 % for soy sauce and 99.75 % for soy milk). The limits of quantification (LOQ) were determined to be 69.9 ppb for soy milk and 240.59 ppb for soy sauce samples. The limits of detection (LOD) were found to be 23.1 ppb for soy milk and 79.4 ppb for soy sauce. These findings highlight the effectiveness of the electrospinning-SERS approach for detecting thiabendazole in soy-based food samples, contributing to the understanding of pesticide contamination and ensuring the quality and safety of food products.

Abstract
Monitoring blood glucose level is critical, since its abnormality leads to diabetes and causes death, even though glucose is essential for human living. Herein, the sensing study was performed on electrochemical nonenzymatic glucose sensors, which are composed of an Au nanocluster (AuNC) catalyst deposited on a metallic nanotube array (MeNTA) and polypyrrole nanowire (PPyNW). The AuNC was produced by irradiating a femtosecond pulse laser to the Au precursor solution, and it is a simple and facile method. The successful deposition of AuNC on both MeNTA and PPyNW was confirmed by means of the surface morphology and the Au content increase. On the exploration by cyclic voltammetry in alkaline condition, AuNC/MeNTA electrodes showed better performance than AuNC/PPyNW electrodes: The former was a remarkable electrocatalytic detector towards glucose oxidation with better sensitivity, lower detection limit, wider linear range, and longer-term stability without interference from potential interfering agents such as ascorbic acid, urea, NaCl, KCl, etc. Moreover, nonenzymatic AuNC/MeNTA electrodes exhibited high precision and accuracy in real human blood samples and, thus, can be a promising candidate in glucose sensing applications.

Abstract
Rapid extraction and analysis of target molecules from irregular surfaces are in high demand in the field of on-site analysis. Herein, a flexible platform used for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) based on an ordered polymer pyramid structure with half-imbedded silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was prepared to address this issue. The fabrication includes the following steps: (1) creating inverted pyramid arrays in silicon substrate, (2) preparing a layer of AgNPs on the surface of the inverted pyramids, and (3) obtaining a substrate with an ordered polymer pyramids array with half-imbedded AgNPs by the molding method. This flexible substrate is capable of rapid extraction via a simple and convenient "paste and peel off" method. In addition, the substrate exhibits great repeatability and good sensitivity thanks to the uniformity and larger surface area of the ordered pyramids. The density of "hot spots" (local electromagnetic field with high intensity) is increased on the structured surface. Semi-imbedding silver particles in the polymer pyramids makes "hot spots" robust on the substrate. In addition, the preprepared silicon template with the inverted pyramids can be reused, which greatly reduces the production cost. With this substrate, we successfully analyzed thiram molecules on the epidermis of apples, cucumbers, and oranges, and the detection limits are 2.4, 3, and 3 ng/cm2, respectively. These results demonstrate the great potential of the substrate for in situ analysis, which can provide reference for the design of ideal SERS substrates.

Abstract
The determination of clinically significant amounts of tau protein in bodily fluids is a major problem in Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis. As a result, the present work aims to develop a simple, label-free, fast, highly sensitive, and selective 2D carbon backbone graphene oxide (GO) patterned surface plasmon resonance (SPR) mediated affinity biosensor for Tau-441 monitoring. Initially, non-plasmonic nanosized GO was made using a modified Hummers' method, whereas green synthesized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were subjected to a layer-by-layer (LbL) design employing anionic and cationic polyelectrolytes. Several spectroscopical evaluations were carried out to ensure the synthesis of GO, AuNPs, and LbL assembly. Following that, the Anti-Tau rabbit antibody was immobilized on the designed LbL assembly using carbodiimide chemistry, and various studies such as sensitivity, selectivity, stability, repeatability, spiked sample analysis, etc., were conducted using the constructed affinity GO@LbL-AuNPs-Anti-Tau SPR biosensor. As an output, it shows a broad concentration range and a very low detection limit of 150 ng/mL to 5 fg/mL and 13.25 fg/mL, respectively. The remarkable sensitivity of this SPR biosensor represents the merits of a combination of plasmonic AuNPs and a non-plasmonic GO. It also exhibits great selectivity for Tau-441 in the presence of interfering molecules, which may be because of the immobilization of the Anti-Tau rabbit on the surface of the LbL assembly. Furthermore, it ensured high stability and repeatability, while spiked sample analysis and AD-induced animal samples analysis confirmed the practicability of GO@LbL-AuNPs-Anti-Tau SPR biosensor for Tau-441 detection. In conclusion, fabricated sensitive, selective, stable, label-free, quick, simple, and minimally invasive GO@LbL-AuNPs-Anti-Tau SPR biosensor will provide an alternative for AD diagnosis in the future.

Abstract
Engineering research has been expanded by the advent of material fusion, which has led to the development of composites that are more reliable and cost-effective. This investigation aims to utilise this concept to promote a circular economy by maximizing the adsorption of silver nanoparticles and silver nitrate onto recycled chicken eggshell membranes, resulting in optimized antimicrobial silver/eggshell membrane composites. The pH, time, concentration, and adsorption temperatures were optimized. It was confirmed that these composites were excellent candidates for use in antimicrobial applications. The silver nanoparticles were produced through chemical synthesis using sodium borohydride as a reducing agent and through adsorption/surface reduction of silver nitrate on eggshell membranes. The composites were thoroughly characterized by various techniques, including spectrophotometry, atomic absorption spectrometry, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, as well as agar well diffusion and MTT assay. The results indicate that silver/eggshell membrane composites with excellent antimicrobial properties were produced using both silver nanoparticles and silver nitrate at a pH of 6, 25 °C, and after 48 h of agitation. These materials exhibited remarkable antimicrobial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus subtilis, resulting in 27.77% and 15.34% cell death, respectively.

Abstract
By coupling thin-film microextraction (TFME) with surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), a facile method was developed for the determination of thiram in the complex matrix (orange juice or grape peel). The substrate of TFME was made by self-assembling silver sol on the silicon wafer to form a three-dimensional (3D) silver nanonetwork structure, without adding any template, which was used for TFME and SERS detection, respectively. The substrate exhibits high reproducibility with a relative standard deviation of about 7.32 % in spot and spot SERS intensity. The SERS signal intensity at a shift of 1384 cm-1 and the thiram concentration showed good linearity in the range of 0.01-5 µg/L and the linear correlation coefficient was 0.9912. The detection limit for thiram was found to be 0.01 µg/L. The TFME-SERS method was applied for the determination of thiram in fruit juice and the results were obtained very well. Therefore, this method is expected to play a role in the detection of trace pollutants.

Abstract
Emerging antibiotic resistant bacteria constitute one of the biggest threats to public health. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is highly promising for detecting such bacteria and for antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST). SERS is fast, non-destructive (can probe living cells) and it is technologically flexible (readily integrated with robotics and machine learning algorithms). However, in order to integrate into efficient point-of-care (PoC) devices and to effectively replace the current culture-based methods, it needs to overcome the challenges of reliability, cost and complexity. Recently, significant progress has been made with the emergence of both new questions and new promising directions of research and technological development. This article brings together insights from several representative SERS-based AST studies and approaches oriented towards clinical PoC biosensing. It aims to serve as a reference source that can guide progress towards PoC routines for identifying antibiotic resistant pathogens. In turn, such identification would help to trace the origin of sporadic infections, in order to prevent outbreaks and to design effective medical treatment and preventive procedures.

Abstract
With the development of flexible surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) substrates that can realize rapid in situ detection, the SERS technique accompanied by miniaturized Raman spectrometers holds great promise for point-of-care testing (POCT). For an in situ detection strategy, constructing high-performance flexible and transparent SERS substrates through a facile and cost-effective fabrication method is critically important. Herein, we present a simple method for fabricating a large-area flexible and transparent SERS substrate consisting of a silver-nanoparticle-grafted wrinkled polydimethylsiloxane (Ag NPs@W-PDMS) film, using a surface-wrinkling technique and magnetron sputtering technology. By characterizing rhodamine 6G as a probe molecule with a portable Raman spectrometer, the flexible SERS substrate shows a low detection limit (10-7 M), a high enhancement factor (6.11 × 106), and excellent spot-spot and batch-batch reproducibilities (9.0% and 4.2%, respectively). Moreover, the Ag NPs@W-PDMS substrate maintains high SERS activity under bending and twisting mechanical deformations of over 100 cycles, as well as storage in air for 30 days. To evaluate its practical feasibility, in situ detection of malachite green on apple and tomato peels is performed with a detection limit of 10-6 M. In addition, for point-of-care analysis, we develop a wireless transmission system to transmit the collected SERS spectral data to a computer in real time for signal processing and analysis. Therefore, the proposed Ag NPs@W-PDMS SERS substrate fabricated through a simple and mass-producible method, combined with the utilization of a portable Raman spectrometer and wireless communication, offers a promising opportunity to extend the SERS technique from the laboratory to POCT applications.

Here, we comprehensively review the recent advances made in the field of solid SERS substrates, including their common fabrication methods, basic categories, main features, and representative applications, respectively. Firstly, the main categories of solid SERS substrates, mainly including membrane substrate, self-assembled substrate, chip substrate, magnetic solid substrate, and other solid substrate, are introduced in detail, as well as corresponding construction strategies and main features. Secondly, the typical applications of solid SERS substrates in bio-analysis, food safety analysis, environment analysis, and other analyses are briefly reviewed. Finally, the challenges and perspectives of solid SERS substrates, including analytical performance improvement and largescale production level enhancement, are proposed.

Abstract
Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has evolved into a powerful analytical method in food and environmental analytical sciences due to its high sensitivity. Pesticide analysis is a major discipline therein. Using sustainable materials has become increasingly important to adhere to Green Chemistry principles. Hence, the green textiles poly-(L-lactic acid) (PLA) and the mixed fabric polyethylene terephthalate polyamide (PET/PA) were investigated for their applicability as solid supports for gold nanoparticles to yield SERS substrates. Gold nanoparticle solutions and green textile supports were prepared after preparation optimization. Particle size, dispersity, and particle distribution over the textiles were characterized by absorption spectroscopy and transmission electron imaging. The performance of the SERS substrates was tested using the three pesticides imidacloprid, paraquat, and thiram and a handheld Raman spectrometer with a laser wavelength of 785 nm. The resulting SERS spectra possessed an intra-substrate variation of 7-8% in terms of the residual standard deviation. The inter-substrate variations amounted to 15% for PET/PA and to 27% for PLA. Substrate background signals were smaller with PLA but more enhanced through PET/PA. The pesticides could be detected at 1 pg on PET/PA and at 3 ng on PLA. Hence, PET/PA woven textile soaked with gold nanoparticle solution provides green SERS substrates and might prove, in combination with fieldable Raman spectrometers, suitable for in-field analytics for pesticide identification.

Abstract
Two-dimensional transition metal carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides (MXene), with excellent optical and electrical properties, are promising substrates for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and electrochemical sensors. Therefore, a unique 3D-decorated structure containing silver (Ag) nanoparticles and Ti3C2Tx was designed as the substrates of SERS and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) immunosensors. The Ag/Ti3C2Tx composite significantly increases Raman intensity, which is attributed to the synergistic effect of Ti3C2Tx and Ag nanoparticles. Based on the SERS performance of the Ag/Ti3C2Tx composite, the magnetic properties of Fe3O4 and the specificity of antigen-antibody, a sandwich-structured SERS immunosensor is constructed, which can effectively detect trace amounts of beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG). The SERS immunosensor exhibits a wide linear range of 5.0 × 10-6-1.0 mIU mL-1, and a low detection limit of 9.0 × 10-7 mIU mL-1. Meanwhile, the Ag/Ti3C2Tx-based EIS immunosensor is constructed for the portable detection of β-hCG, which exhibits a wide linear range of 5.0 × 10-2-1.0 × 102 mIU mL-1, a low detection limit of 9.5 × 10-3 mIU mL-1. Moreover, two immunosensors can be used to detect actual serum samples with satisfactory recovery (98.5-102.2%). This work could guide the design of low-cost, sensitive, flexible, and portable biosensors. The SERS and EIS substrates composited with Ti3C2Tx and Ag nanoparticles enable excellent performance for detecting β-hCG.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is widely used as a powerful analytical technology in cutting-edge areas such as food safety, biology, chemistry, and medical diagnosis, providing ultra-fast, ultra-sensitive, nondestructive characterization and achieving ultra-high detection sensitivity even down to the single-molecule level. Development of Raman spectroscopy is strongly dependent on high-performance SERS substrates, which have long evolved from the early days of rough metal electrodes to periodic nanopatterned arrays building on solid supporting substrates. For rigid SERS substrates, however, their applications are restricted by sophisticated pretreatments for detecting solid samples with non-planar surfaces. It is therefore essential to reassert the principles in constructing flexible SERS substrates. Herein, we comprehensively review the state-of-the-art in understanding, preparing and using flexible SERS. The basic mechanisms behind the flexible SERS are briefly outlined, typical design strategies are highlighted and diversified selection of materials in preparing flexible SERS substrates are reviewed. Then the recent achievements of various interdisciplinary applications based on flexible SERS substrates are summarized. Finally, the challenges and perspectives for future evolution of flexible SERS and their applications are demonstrated. We propose new research directions focused on stimulating the real potential of SERS as an advanced analytical technique for commercialization.

Abstract
The importance of this work is the use of waste seashells WSS (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 wt.%) as a bio-filler to enhance the mechanical and acoustical characteristics of flexible polyurethane foam (FPU). Petroleum-based polyol was partially replaced by 25% castor oil resulting in high renewable content. The WSS was characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The chemical structure and morphological features for castor oil-based flexible polyurethane waste seashells (CO-FPU-WSS) composites were detected using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques, respectively. Besides, the mechanical, non-acoustical and acoustical properties were investigated. The results indicated that bio-based FPU composites possessed better compressive strength than neat FPU foam. In addition, FPU composites enhance the sound absorption below 500 Hz. A 6 cm air gap behind the sample shifted the absorption toward 400 Hz (0.85) for CO-FPU-WSS 25% composite with a broader band. Thus, the FPU foam composite is considered a promising candidate for sound absorption applications such as for the automotive and building industries.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a vibrational spectroscopy technique that enables specific identification of target analytes with sensitivity down to the single-molecule level by harnessing metal nanoparticles and nanostructures. Excitation of localized surface plasmon resonance of a nanostructured surface and the associated huge local electric field enhancement lie at the heart of SERS, and things will become better if strong chemical enhancement is also available simultaneously. Thus, the precise control of surface characteristics of enhancing substrates plays a key role in broadening the scope of SERS for scientific purposes and developing SERS into a routine analytical tool. In this review, the development of SERS substrates is outlined with some milestones in the nearly half-century history of SERS. In particular, these substrates are classified into zero-dimensional, one-dimensional, two-dimensional, and three-dimensional substrates according to their geometric dimension. We show that, in each category of SERS substrates, design upon the geometric and composite configuration can be made to achieve an optimized enhancement factor for the Raman signal. We also show that the temporal dimension can be incorporated into SERS by applying femtosecond pulse laser technology, so that the SERS technique can be used not only to identify the chemical structure of molecules but also to uncover the ultrafast dynamics of molecular structural changes. By adopting SERS substrates with the power of four-dimensional spatiotemporal control and design, the ultimate goal of probing the single-molecule chemical structural changes in the femtosecond time scale, watching the chemical reactions in four dimensions, and visualizing the elementary reaction steps in chemistry might be realized in the near future.

Abstract
Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) has been clinically considered as a novel biomarker for vitamin D deficiency. The current standard technologies for the detection of 25(OH)D are performed in sophisticated laboratories exhibiting the practical limitations for onsite and affordable testing. Therefore, the development of a cost-effective device for Vitamin D is extremely necessary to provide an earlier diagnosis. Herein, for the first time, we propose a novel label-free impedimetric immunosensor for the detection and quantification of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25(OH)D3) biomarker in serum samples based on the Au nanoparticles functionalized GCN-β-CD nanocomposite. To fabricate the sensing probe, Ab-25(OH)D3 antibodies were covalently immobilized on GCN-β-CD@Au/GCE using carbodiimide chemistry. The surface morphology and structural properties of constructed immunosensor were confirmed by different analytical techniques. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy technique (EIS) has been selected as the main detection method to measure the Antibody (Ab) and Antigen (Ag) interaction at the immunosensor surface because it is label-free, less destructive to the activities of the biomolecule, and highly sensitive. The as-prepared immunosensor exhibited an excellent concentration range from 0.1 ng/ml to 500 ng/ml with the lowest limit of detection of 0.01 ng/ml. Furthermore, the sensing probe was validated in serum samples and obtained results were compared with the standard CLIA technique. The results have revealed that the sensing probe could be used for clinical diagnosis of Vitamin D deficiency in the clinical laboratories.

Abstract
To acquire substantial electrochemical signals of guanine-GUA and adenine-ADE present in deoxyribonucleic acid-DNA, it is critical to investigate innovative electrode materials and their interfaces. In this study, gold-loaded boron-doped graphene quantum dots (Au@B-GQDs) interface was prepared via ultrasound-aided reduction method for monitoring GUA and ADE electrochemically. Transmission electron microscopy-TEM, Ultraviolet-Visible spectroscopy-UV-Vis, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy-XPS, cyclic voltammetry-CV, and differential pulse voltammetry-DPV were used to examine the microstructure of the fabricated interfaceand demonstrate its electrochemical characteristics. The sensor was constructed by depositing the as-prepared Au@B-GQDs as a thin layer on a glassy carbon-GC electrode by the drop-casting method and carried out the electrochemical studies. The resulting sensor exhibited a good response with a wide linear range (GUA = 0.5-20 μM, ADE = 0.1-20 μM), a low detection limit-LOD (GUA = 1.71 μM, ADE = 1.84 μM), excellent sensitivity (GUA = 0.0820 µAµM-1, ADE = 0.1561 µAµM-1) and selectivity with common interferents results from biological matrixes. Furthermore, it seems to have prominentselectivity, reproducibility, repeatability, and long-lastingstability. The results demonstrate that the fabricated Au@B-GQDs/GC electrode is a simple and effective sensing platform for detecting GUA and ADE in neutral media at low potential as it exhibited prominent synergistic impact and outstanding electrocatalytic activity corresponding to individual AuNPs and B-GQDs modified electrodes.

Abstract
The abuse of pesticides in agricultural land during pre- and post-harvest causes an increase of residue in agricultural products and pollution in the environment, which ultimately affects human health. Hence, it is crucially important to develop an effective detection method to quantify the trace amount of residue in food and water. However, with the rapid development of nanotechnology and considering the exclusive properties of nanomaterials, optical, and their integrated system have gained exclusive interest for accurately sensing of pesticides in food and agricultural samples to ensure food safety thanks to their unique benefit of high sensitivity, low detection limit, good selectivity and so on and making them a trending hotspot. This review focuses on recent progress in the past five years on nanomaterial-based optical, such as colorimetric, fluorescence, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and their integrated system for the monitoring of benzimidazole fungicide (including, carbendazim, thiabendazole, and thiophanate-methyl) residue in food and water samples. This review firstly provides a brief introduction to mentioned techniques, detection mechanism, applied nanomaterials, label-free detection, target-specific detection, etc. then their specific application. Finally, challenges and perspectives in the respective field are discussed.

Abstract
A fast and sensitive test of blood glucose levels is very important for monitoring and reducing diabetic complications. Herein, a simple and sensitive non-enzymatic glucose sensing platform was fabricated by employing Cu2+–Cu+/biochar as the catalyst. The Cu2+–Cu+/biochar was synthesized through a bio-inspired synthesis, in which waste eggshell membrane (ESM) was introduced as a template to absorb Cu2+, then converting it into Cu2+–Cu+ biochar via a rapid pyrolysis. The structure and properties of the as-prepared Cu2+–Cu+ biochar were determined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), FT-IR spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry (CV). Due to great advantages of Cu2+–Cu+/biochar, such as high electrical conductivity, unique three-dimensional porous network and large electrochemically active surface area, the as-prepared Cu2+–Cu+ biochar modified electrode showed high catalytic activity towards glucose oxidization. The fabricated enzyme-free glucose sensor showed excellent performance for glucose determination with a linear range of 12.5–670 μM, and a limit of detection (LOD) of 1.04 μM. Moreover, the as-fabricated sensor has good anti-interference ability and stability. Finally, the proposed senor has been successfully applied to detect glucose in clinical samples (human serum). Owing to the green synthesis method, using biowaste ESM as a template, and the superior catalytic performance and low cost of Cu2+–Cu+/biochar, the developed sensor shows great potential in clinical applications for direct sensing of glucose. The fabrication process of the nonenzyme glucose sensing based Cu2+–Cu+/biochar.![]()

Abstract
Developing metallic nanocatalysts with high reaction activity, selectivity and practical durability is a promising and active subfield in electrocatalysis. In the classical "bottom-up" approach to synthesize stable nanomaterials by chemical reduction, stabilizing additives such as polymers or organic surfactants must be present to cap the nanoparticle to prevent material bulk aggregation. In recent years, biological systems have emerged as green alternatives to support the uncoated inorganic components. One key advantage of biological templates is their inherent ability to produce nanostructures with controllable composition, facet, size and morphology under ecologically friendly synthetic conditions, which are difficult to achieve with traditional inorganic synthesis. In addition, through genetic engineering or bioconjugation, bio-templates can provide numerous possibilities for surface functionalization to incorporate specific binding sites for the target metals. Therefore, in bio-templated systems, the electrocatalytic performance of the formed nanocatalyst can be tuned by precisely controlling the material surface chemistry. With controlled improvements in size, morphology, facet exposure, surface area and electron conductivity, bio-inspired nanomaterials often exhibit enhanced catalytic activity towards electrode reactions. In this Review, recent research developments are presented in bio-approaches for metallic nanomaterial synthesis and their applications in electrocatalysis for sustainable energy storage and conversion systems.

Abstract
Eggshell is an extremely large source of domestic waste and has a huge scientific research potential because of its unique porous hierarchical structure. By converting eggshell waste into valuable functional materials, it can be recycled in many fields. Herein, we envisioned an economical and environmentally friendly conversion method for synthesizing Au nanoparticle loaded eggshell nanocomposites (defined as Au/CaCO3 nanocomposites) for the detection of trace amounts of nitrite in oolong tea. Compared with bare electrodes, the prepared Au/CaCO3 nanocomposite-based electrodes have obvious electrochemical enhancement behavior. A wide linear response range of 0.01 to 1.00 mM and a relatively low detection limit of 11.55 nM have been obtained in this study. The "turning waste into treasure" transformation strategy not only provides a practical and low-cost method for comprehensive utilization of eggshells as valuable functional materials, but also provides a new approach for sensitive detection of pollutants.

Abstract
This study developed a novel surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) method coupled with cellulose nanofiber (CNF)-based SERS wipers that were fabricated on quartz papers coated with a mixture of silver nanoparticle (AgNP) and gold nanostar (AuNS). A "drop-wipe-test" protocol was developed for rapid detection of pesticide residues in vegetables by SERS. Tremendously enhanced Raman scattering signals were obtained from the quartz/CNF/mixture (AgNP + AuNS) substrate, which were much higher than the paper/mixture (AgNP + AuNS) substrate. This method was used to detect ferbam on kale leaves within a few minutes and the detection limit was 50 μg/kg based on the PLS models (R2 = 0.89). The enhancement factor of the SERS substrate was calculated to be ~ 104 with satisfactory reproducibility. Satisfactory SERS performance could be achieved within 1-month storage period. These results demonstrate that this CNF-based SERS/wiper method is a practical approach for rapid detection of chemical contaminants in fresh produce.

Abstract
Biopolymers provide versatile platforms for designing naturally-derived wound care dressings through eco-friendly pathways. Eggshell membrane (ESM), a widely available, biocompatible biopolymer based structure features a unique 3D porous interwoven fibrous protein network. The ESM was functionalized with inorganic compounds (Ag, ZnO, CuO used either separately or combined) using a straightforward deposition technique namely radio frequency magnetron sputtering. The functionalized ESMs were characterized from morphological, structural, compositional, surface chemistry, optical, cytotoxicity and antibacterial point of view. It was emphasized that functionalization with a combination of metal oxides and exposure to visible light results in a highly efficient antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli when compared to the activity of individual metal oxide components. It is assumed that this is possible due to the fact that an axial p-n junction is created by joining the two metal oxides. This structure separates into components the charge carrier pairs promoted by visible light irradiation that further can influence the generation of reactive oxygen species which ultimately are responsible for the bactericide effect. This study proves that, by employing inexpensive and environmentally friendly materials (ESM and metal oxides) and fabrication techniques (radio frequency magnetron sputtering), affordable antibacterial materials can be developed for potential applications in chronic wound healing device area.

Abstract
Bioremediation is one of efficient methods to solve the issues of water or soil contaminated by metal ions. However, the harvested biowaste is often troublesome to handle owing to the second pollution. Herein, the waste eggshell membrane was used to adsorb Cu2+ in wastewater, which was then converted into biochar containing copper ions (Cu2+-Cu+/Biochar) via a rapid pyrolysis. By integrating the collective advantages of eggshell membrane and Cu2+-Cu+, such as superior electrical conductivity, enlarged electrochemically active surface area, unique three-dimensional porous network characteristics, and fast charge transport, the Cu2+-Cu+/Biochar system can be used as a self-supporting sensor for detection of nitrite (NO2-). The sensor demonstrated superior electrochemical sensing abilities accompanied by a broad linear range (1-300 μM), ultralow detection limit (0.63 μM), and high sensitivity (30.0 μA·mM-1·cm-2). In addition, the fabricated electrochemical sensor has excellent stability, good reproducibility, and strong anti-interference performance. More importantly, the sensor has a high recovery rate when it is used to detect nitrite in tap water, mineral water, and sausage, indicating the feasibility of using this sensor in practical applications. This study provides a green and sustainable approach for simultaneous treatment of biomass waste eggshell membrane, remedy of heavy metals, and electrochemical detection of nitrite.

Abstract
Dopamine acts as a neurotransmitter to regulate a variety of physiological functions of the central nervous system. Thus, the fabrication of electrochemical active nanomaterials for sensitive dopamine detection is extremely important for human health. Herein, we constructed a highly efficient dopamine nonenzymatic biosensor using eggshell membrane (ESM) as a 3D network-like carrier-loaded Au and CeO2 nanocomposites. This approach has led to the uniform distribution of CeO2 and Au nanoparticles on the surface of ESM. The structure and properties of the as-prepared ESM templated Au/CeO2 (ESM-AC) nanocomposites were characterized. The electrochemical properties of non-enzymatic oxidation of dopamine by ESM-AC electrode were studied by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The detection limit of the ESM-AC modified electrode for dopamine is 0.26 μM with a linear range from 0.1 to 10 mM. The ESM-AC-modified electrode performs a higher catalytic activity for dopamine electrocatalytic oxidation than that ESM-templated CeO2 (ESM-C) electrode, which is mainly due to the unique structure of ESM and more active sites provided from Au. Collectively, this biological waste-ESM provides a cheap and unique template for the preparation of 3D network-like nanostructures and expands the application in electrochemical dopamine detection. ESM-AC nanocomposites prepared from biological waste was successfully modified on the surface of glassy carbon electrode and a dopamine-based electrochemical biosensor was constructed.
