Abstract
Cancer is most frequently treated with antineoplastic agents (ANAs) that are hazardous to patients undergoing chemotherapy and the healthcare workers who handle ANAs in the course of their duties. All aspects related to hazardous oncological drugs illustrate that the monitoring of ANAs is essential to minimize the risks associated with these drugs. Among all analytical techniques used to test ANAs, electrochemistry holds an important position. This review, for the first time, comprehensively describes the progress done in electrochemistry of ANAs by means of a variety of bare or modified (bio)sensors over the last four decades (in the period of 1982-2021). Attention is paid not only to the development of electrochemical sensing protocols of ANAs in various biological, environmental, and pharmaceutical matrices but also to achievements of electrochemical techniques in the examination of the interactions of ANAs with deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), carcinogenic cells, biomimetic membranes, peptides, and enzymes. Other aspects, including the enantiopurity studies, differentiation between single-stranded and double-stranded DNA without using any label or tag, studies on ANAs degradation, and their pharmacokinetics, by means of electrochemical techniques are also commented. Finally, concluding remarks that underline the existence of a significant niche for the basic electrochemical research that should be filled in the future are presented.

Abstract
Resulted from the severe side effects, the development of inexpensive, simple and sensitive method for amethopterin (ATP, an antineoplastic drug) is very important but it still remains a challenge. In this work, low cost nanohybrid composed of carbon nanobowl (CNB) and β-cyclodextrins (β-CD) (CNB-CD) was prepared with a simple autopolymerization way and applied as electrode material to develop a novel electrochemical sensor of ATP. Scanning-/transmission-electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectrum, photographic image and electrochemical technologies were utilized to characterize morphologies and structure of the as-prepared CNB and CNB-CD materials. On the basic of the coordination advantages from CNB (prominent electrical property and surface area) and β-CD (superior molecule-recognition and solubility capabilities), the CNB-CD nanohybrid modified electrode exhibits superior sensing performances toward ATP, and a low detection limit of 0.002 μM coupled with larger linearity of 0.005-12.0 μM are obtained. In addition, the as-prepared sensor offers desirable repeatability, stability, selectivity and practical application property, confirming that this proposal may have important applications in the determination of ATP.

SENSORS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 24:705. [PMID: 38276396 PMCID: PMC10818471 DOI: 10.3390/s24020705] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2023] [Revised: 01/12/2024] [Accepted: 01/17/2024] [Indexed: 01/27/2024]
Abstract
In this study, we propose an eco-friendly method for synthesizing cerium tungstate nanoparticles using hydrothermal techniques. We used scanning, transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction to analyze the morphology of the synthesized nanoparticles. The results showed that the synthesized nanoparticles were uniform and highly crystalline, with a particle size of about 50 nm. The electrocatalytic properties of the nanoparticles were then investigated using cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. We further used the synthesized nanoparticles to develop an electrochemical sensor based on a carbon paste electrode that can detect hydroquinone. By optimizing the differential pulse voltammetric method, a wide linearity range of 0.4 to 45 µM and a low detection limit of 0.06 µM were obtained. The developed sensor also expressed excellent repeatability (RSD up to 3.8%) and reproducibility (RSD below 5%). Interferences had an insignificant impact on the determination of analytes, making it possible to use this method for monitoring hydroquinone concentrations in tap water. This study introduces a new approach to the chemistry of materials and the environment and demonstrates that a careful selection of components can lead to new horizons in analytical chemistry.

Abstract
Wearable devices based on microneedle (MN) technology have recently emerged as tools for in situ transdermal sensing or delivery in interstitial fluid (ISF). Particularly, MN-based electrochemical sensors allow the continuous monitoring of analytes in a minimally invasive manner through ISF. Exogenous small molecules found in ISF such as therapeutic drugs are ideal candidates for MN sensors due to their correlation with blood levels and their relevance for the optimal management of personalized therapies. Herein, a hollow MN array patch is modified with conductive pastes and functionalized with cross-linked chitosan to develop an MN-based voltammetric sensor for continuous monitoring of methotrexate (MTX). Interestingly, the chitosan coating avoids biofouling while enabling the adsorption of MTX at the electrode's surface for sensitive analysis. The MN sensor exhibits excellent analytical performance in vitro with protein-enriched artificial ISF and ex vivo under a Franz diffusion cell configuration. The MN sensor shows a linear range from 25 to 400 μM, which fits within the therapeutic range of high-dose MTX treatment for cancer patients and an excellent continuous operation for more than two days. Moreover, an iontophoretic hollow MN array patch is developed with the integration of both the anode and cathode in the single MN array patch. The ex vivo characterization demonstrates the transdermal on-demand drug delivery of MTX. Overall, the combination of both MN patches represents impactful progress in closed-loop systems for therapeutic drug management in disorders such as cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, or psoriasis.

Abstract
As a front-line chemotherapeutic drug for maintenance and consolidation therapy, methotrexate (MTX) has widely been applied to treat various tumors and some inflammatory diseases. However, because of its severe toxicity ascribed to low selectivity, it is necessary to monitor therapeutic drugs in high-dose MTX therapeutic regimens to ensure treatment safety. In this work, we developed a fluorescent immunochromatographic test strip (FITS) for monitoring MTX by employing time-resolved fluorescent microspheres as signal probes. With a competitive immunoassay mode, the FITS for MTX shows a super-wide dynamic range of 10 pM-10 μM, covering the entire clinical therapeutic concentration range of MTX. Therapeutic drug monitoring of MTX can be achieved within 7 min with high specificity, facilitating the timely rescue of drug poisoning led by high-dose MTX treatment. The method was employed for monitoring MTX in the spiked human serum, urine, and milk, showing acceptable recoveries ranging from 94.0 to 110.0%. The established FITS has been applied to MTX detection in serum obtained from high-dose MTX treatment. The results from FITS and enzyme multiplied immunoassay technique showed no significant difference, suggesting its reliability for usage in real biological samples. The device shows promise in point-of-care therapeutic drug monitoring for resource-limited countries and institutes, which significantly facilitates overcoming the lag time between sampling and results.

Abstract
Analyzing the levels of anticancer medications in biological samples and body fluids reveals important details on the course and effects of chemotherapy. p (L-Cys)/graphitic-carbon nitride (g-C3N4)/GCE, a modified glassy carbon electrode, was created for the current study's electrochemical detection of methotrexate (MTX), a drug used to treat breast cancer, in pharmaceutical fluid samples. l-Cysteine was electro-polymerized on the surface of the g-C3N4/GCE after the g-C3N4 was first modified to prepare the p (L-Cys)/g-C3N4/GCE. Analyses of morphology and structure showed that well-crystalline p (L-Cys) on g-C3N4/GCE was successfully electropolymerized. Studying the electrochemical characteristics of p (L-Cys)/g-C3N4/GCE using CV and DPV techniques revealed a synergistic impact between g-C3N4 and l-cysteine that improved the stability and selectivity of the electrochemical oxidation of MTX while enhancing the electrochemical signal. Results showed that 7.5-780 μM was the linear range, and that 0.11841 μA/μM and 6 nM, respectively, were the sensitivity and limit of detection. The applicability of the suggested sensors was assessed using real pharmaceutical preparations, and the results showed that p (L-Cys)/g-C3N4/GCE had a high degree of precision. Five breast cancer patients who volunteered and provided prepared blood serum samples between the ages of 35 and 50 were used to examine the validity and accuracy of the proposed sensor in the current work for the determination of MTX. The results showed good recovery values (greater than 97.20%), appropriate accuracy (RSD less than 5.11%), and good agreement between the ELISA and DPV analysis results. These findings showed that p (L-Cys)/g-C3N4/GCE can be applied as a trustworthy MTX sensor for MTX level monitoring in blood samples and pharmaceutical samples.

Abstract
Engineering the nanostructure of an electrocatalyst is crucial in developing a high-performance electrochemical sensor. This work exhibits the hydrothermal followed by annealing synthesis of niobium oxide/niobium carbide/reduced graphene oxide (NbO/NbC/rGO) ternary nanocomposite. The oval-shaped NbO/NbC nanoparticles cover the surface of rGO evenly, and the rGO nanosheets are interlinked to produce a micro-flower-like architecture. The NbO/NbC/rGO nanocomposite-modified electrode is presented here for the first time for the rapid and sensitive electrochemical detection of the anticancer drug methotrexate (MTX). Down-sized NbO/NbC nanoparticles and rGO's high surface area provide many active sites with a rapid electron transfer rate, making them ideal for MTX detection. In comparison to previously reported MTX sensors, the developed drug sensor exhibits a lower oxidation potential and a higher peak current responsiveness. The constructed sensors worked analytically well under optimal conditions, as shown by a low detection limit of 1.6 nM, a broad linear range of 0.1-850 µM, and significant recovery findings (∼98 %, (n = 3)) in real samples analysis. Thus, NbO/NbC/rGO nanocomposite material for high-performance electrochemical applications seems promising.

Abstract
We report on the electrochemical determination of one the most effective and widely used chemotherapeutic, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulator agents, methotrexate (MTX), using low-cost, green, and facile one-pot prepared graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN ) nanosheets. The g-CN nanosheets have been characterized utilizing Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), and density functional theory (DFT). In comparison to the bare carbon paste electrode (CPE), the g-CN -modified electrode showed a spectacular enhancement in the electrochemical oxidation and detection abilities of MTX. The proposed material exhibits very low limits of detection (12.45 nM) and quantification (41.5 nM), while possessing a wide linear range of 0.22-1.11 μM and 1.11-27.03 μM under optimized conditions at pH 7.0. Due to the ease of preparation of g-CN, it can be adopted for the cost-effective detection of MTX in industrial and clinical analyses.

Abstract
Epirubicin is prescribed as an essential drug for treating breast, prostate, uterine, and gastrointestinal cancers. It has many side effects, such as heart failure, mouth inflammation, abdominal pain, fever, and shortness of breath. Its measurement is necessary by straightforward and cheap methods. The application of aptamer-based electrochemical sensors is accounted as a selective option for measuring different compounds. In this work, a thiol-modified aptamer was self-assembled on the surface of the gold electrode (AuE) boosted with carbon nano-onions (CNOs), and coupled with methylene blue (MB) as an electroactive tracker to achieve a sensitive and selective aptasensor. In the absence of the epirubicin, CNOs binds to the aptamer through a π-π interaction enhancing the MB electrochemical signal. When epirubicin binds to the aptamer, the adsorption of CNOs and MB to the aptamer is not well established, so the electrochemical signal is reduced, consequently, the epirubicin value can be measured. The prepared aptasensor demonstrated an excellent sensitivity with a curve slope of 0.36 μI/nM, and 3 nM limit of detection in the linear concentration range of 1-75 nM. The prepared aptasensor was accurately capable of measuring epirubicin in blood serum samples.

Abstract
The rapid quantitative detection of Escherichia coli (E. coli) is of great significance for evaluating water and food safety. At present, the conventional bacteria detection methods cannot meet the requirements of rapid detection in water environments. Herein, we report a method based on chronoamperometry to rapidly and quantitatively detect live E. coli. In this study, the current indicator i0 and the electricity indicator A were used to record the cumulative effect of bacteria on an unmodified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface during chronoamperometric detection. Through the analysis of influencing factors and morphological characterization, it was proved that the changes of the two set electrochemical indicator signals had a good correlation with the concentration of E. coli; detection time was less than 5 min, the detection range of E. coli was 104−108 CFU/mL, and the error range was <30%. The results of parallel experiments and spiking experiments showed that this method had good repeatability, stability, and sensitivity. Humic acid and dead cells did not affect the detection results. This study not only developed a rapid quantitative detection method for E. coli in the laboratory, but also realized a bacterial detection scheme based on the theory of bacterial dissolution and adsorption for the first time, providing a new direction and theoretical basis for the development of electrochemical biosensors in the future.

Abstract
It is crucial to design fast, sensitive and affordable deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) recognition instruments, and elucidate changes in DNA structure, for studying the interaction between DNA and chemotherapy drugs. Therefore, a DNA biosensor, based on a carbon paste electrode (CPE), modified with raspberry-like indium(III)/nickel oxide hierarchical nano-structures (In3+ /NiO RLHNSs) was constructed. An electrochemical readout should then give information on the interactions between anticancer drugs and double-stranded (ds)-DNA. The morphology as well as the electrochemical description of this new biosensor is described. Based on experimentally determined optimal conditions, ds-DNA modified with In3+ /NiO RLHNSs/CPE was used to evaluate the binding interaction of nilotinib, as an anti-cancer drug, with DNA through differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), UV-Vis spectroscopy, viscosity measurements and a computational docking process. The analyses indicated the linearity of the guanine oxidation signal at nilotinib concentration is given between 0.01 and 50.0 μm, with the limit of detection (LOD) equal to 0.62 nm. Additionally, the equilibrium constant (K) for the binding was determined to 1.5×104 m-1 . Through the quantitative measurement of nilotinib in serum samples with a high recovery rate of 101.3-98.0 %, the applicability of this approach was demonstrated. As a whole, this DNA biosensor may be promising for various bio-interactions.

Abstract
Various methods have been proposed currently to detect amethopterin (ATP, a widely used anticancer drug that is also called methotrexate); however, a simple and low-cost electrochemical method coupled with high sensitivity is scarce. In this study, by using low-cost and readily available nanocarbon black (NCB), which has excellent conductivity and stable dispersion in water as well as large surface area, as electrode materials to modify a glassy carbon electrode (GCE), a simple, inexpensive and highly-sensitive electrochemical sensor was constructed based on NCB/GCE. The electrochemical behaviors of ATP at both NCB/GCE and GCE were studied; the results show that the peak current of ATP at NCB/GCE is extremely higher than that at the bare GCE. For sensing ATP with high sensitivity, various control conditions including accumulation time, pH values of the phosphate buffer solution and NCB amount were optimized. The quantitative testing results show that NCB/GCE presents excellent sensing performances with a wide linearity range from 0.01 to 10.0 μM and low limit of detection (4.0 nM) towards ATP. Moreover, the investigation in the reproducibility and stability as well as selectivity of NCB/GCE demonstrated that the related results are also satisfactory. It is thus simple and effective method for ATP analysis and has important applications.

Abstract
The accurate and precise monitoring of epirubicin (EPR), one of the most widely used anticancer drugs, is significant for human and environmental health. In this context, we developed a highly sensitive electrochemical electrode for EPR detection based on nickel ferrite decorated with gold nanoparticles (Au@NiFe2O4) on the screen-printed electrode (SPE). Various spectral characteristic methods such as Fourier transform infrared spectra (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were used to investigate the surface morphology and structure of the synthesized Au@NiFe2O4 nanocomposite. The novel decorated electrode exhibited a high electrocatalytic activity toward the electrooxidation of EPR, and a nanomolar limit of detection (5.3 nM) was estimated using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) with linear concentration ranges from 0.01 to 0.7 and 0.7 to 3.6 µM. The stability, selectivity, repeatability reproducibility and reusability, with a very low electrode response detection limit, make it very appropriate for determining trace amounts of EPR in pharmaceutical and clinical preparations.

Abstract
The present research utilized a simplified procedure for developing a novel electro-chemical DNA biosensor based on a carbon paste electrode (CPE) modified with three-dimensional (3D) cubic Eu3+/Cu2O nanostructures with clover-like faces (Eu3+/Cu2O CLFNs). The modified electrode was applied to monitor electro-chemical interactions between dsDNA and cytarabine for the first time. Then, the decreased oxidation signal of guanine following the interactions between cytarabine and dsDNA was utilized as an indicator for selectively determining cytarabine using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). According to the findings, the oxidation peak current of guanine was linearly proportionate with the cytarabine concentration in the range between 0.01 and 90 μM. Additionally, the limit of quantification (LOQ) and the limit of detection (LOD) respectively equaled 9.4 nM and 2.8 nM. In addition, the repeatability, applicability and reproducibility of this analysis to drug dosage forms and human serum samples were investigated. Furthermore, UV-vis spectroscopy, DPV, docking and viscosity measurements were applied to elucidate the interaction mechanism of dsDNA with cytarabine. It was found that this DNA biosensor may be utilized to sensitively, accurately and rapidly determine cytarabine.

Abstract
Creatinine is an indicator of hindrance in urination and renal insufficiency. Creatinine levels are the marker of the late stages of prostate cancer. Early and sensitive detection of creatinine can reduce deaths associated with prostate cancer. In this work, nitrogen-doped porous carbon antimony (Sb/NPC) nanoparticles are fabricated to be employed as a non-enzymatic biosensor. Sb/NPC has promising redox activity and is synthesized by a two-step reaction using low-cost precursors. Electrochemical sensing by Sb/NPC is conducted for standard creatinine solutions on a three-electrodes system. Cyclic voltammetry, amperometry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy are used to sense creatinine. LOD and LOQ of the Sb/NPC modified electrode are 0.74 µM and 2.4 µM, respectively. This electrode system analyzes creatinine in the serum of prostate cancer patients who have elevated PSA levels. More than 90% creatinine is recovered from a spiked serum sample of a prostate cancer patient. A direct relation is observed between PSA levels and creatinine levels in prostate cancer. The developed cyclic voltammetric setup detects trace concentrations of creatinine in serum.

Abstract
As an antineoplastic drug, methotrexate (MTX) is widely applied in cancer therapies; however it has potentially toxic activity, and thus the qualitative and quantitative determination of MTX is of great significance. In this paper, by using dopamine synchronously as a carbon and N source, N-doped hollow nanocarbon sphere (NHNC) hybrids were prepared via a simple self-polymerization method and used to construct a new electrochemical sensor for MTX. The prepared NHNC exhibits a uniform hollow nanostructure with high conductivity and electrocatalytic properties as well as large adsorption capacity and surface area, which are the key factors for improving the sensor sensitivity of MTX. For achieving highly sensitive determination of MTX, various conditions were optimized, and the final results show that the NHNC modified electrode has excellent sensing responses for MTX, and it has a wide linear range from 0.05 to 14.0 μM coupled with a low detection limit of 0.01 μM. Finally, studies on the reproducibility, stability and selectivity of the NHNC modified electrode show that the corresponding results are satisfactory.

Abstract
Recent developments on self-propelled microdroplets, moving controllably in response to an external stimulus like chemical, electrical, or magnetic field, have opened a new horizon for smart drug delivery investigations. On the other hand, the new achievements in 3D printing technology has provided a promising option for the fabrication of microfluidic devices, which is an unrivalled platform for in-vitro drug delivery studies. By synergizing the features of chemotaxis, 3D printing, and microfluidic techniques a new approach was introduced to deliver the drug to targeted sites with a well-controlled method and a reasonable speed. A self-propelled ionic liquid ([P6,6,6,14][Cl]) microdroplet, as the drug carrier, was utilised for the targeted delivery of epirubicin anticancer drug within an integrated drug delivery microfluidic system. The asymmetric diffusion of [P6,6,6,14]+ ion from the microdroplet into an aqueous solution with chloride gradient concentration (created under an external electrical field) caused the microdroplet to move. The spatial and temporal position of the moving microdroplet could be controlled by changing the magnitude and polarity of the external electrical field. A piece of hollow-fiber, fixed next to the anode, was filled with phosphate buffer (as the receptor) and used to remove the drug from the carrier. The receptor solution was then taken and injected into a HPLC system for quantification of the released drug. After one-at-a-time optimization of the channel geometry and electrolyte concentration, the experimental variables affecting the drug loading including contact time, pH, and volume of carrier were optimized via a central composite design (CCD) approach.

Abstract
The present research synthesized manganese dioxide nano-flowers (β-MnO2-NF) via a simplified technique for electro-catalytic utilization. Moreover, morphological characteristics and X-ray analyses showed Mn in the oxide form with β-type crystallographic structure. In addition, the research proposed a new efficient electro-chemical sensor to detect methadone at the modified glassy carbon electrode (β-MnO2-NF/GCE). It has been found that oxidizing methadone is irreversible and shows a diffusion controlled procedure at the β-MnO2-NF/GCE. Moreover, β-MnO2-NF/GCE was considerably enhanced in the anodic peak current of methadone related to the separation of morphine and methadone overlapping voltammetric responses with probable difference of 510 mV. In addition, a linear increase has been observed between the catalytic peak currents gained by the differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) of morphine and methadone and their concentrations in the range between 0.1–200.0 μM and 0.1–250.0 μM, respectively. Furthermore, the limits of detection (LOD) for methadone and morphine were found to be 5.6 nM and 8.3 nM, respectively. It has been found that our electrode could have a successful application for detecting methadone and morphine in the drug dose form, urine, and saliva samples. Thus, this condition demonstrated that β-MnO2-NF/GCE displays good analytical performances for the detection of methadone. Electrochemical sensor based on β-MnO2 nanoflower-modified glassy carbon electrode for the simultaneous detection of methadone and morphine was fabricated.![]()

Abstract
In this study, an electrochemical sensor was applied for the determination of theophylline, a bronchodilator drug, using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). A glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface was modified with the La2O3/MWCNT nanocomposite. The design is simplistic, efficient, greener and solvent-free microwave procedure for synthesizing La2O3/MWCNT nanocomposites. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques are used to characterize the features of the La2O3/MWCNT nanocomposite morphology and structure. The use of the modified sensor remarkably enhanced the current density and displayed a linear response ranging between 0.1 and 400.0 μM, with a limit of detection of 0.01 μM (S/N = 3). Using optimized conditions, the modified sensor demonstrated very good stability, selectivity and improved accuracy. Acceptable outputs were achieved in the analysis of real specimens, indicating that it is possible to use the modified sensor for practical analyses.
