Abstract
This work reports the synthesis of nickel ferrite decorated nitrogen and sulfur co-doped graphene quantum dot (NF@N, S:GQD) and its use as an electrode modifier. The developed NF@N, S:GQD modified glassy carbon electrode (NF@N, S:GQD/GCE) was applied to assess isoniazid (INZ) concentration based on its oxidation at the surface of the proposed electrode. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) were used as appropriate electrochemical techniques to study the electrochemical behavior of INZ and determine it. Based on combined evidence from surveys, research, and personal results, it is thought that the combination of nickel ferrite and doped graphene quantum dots can synergistically affect results, leading to increased sensitivity and reduced detection limits. This is probably mainly due to the high electrical conductivity of N, S-GQD structure, the electrocatalytic effect of nickel ferrite, and increased surface area resulting from the nano size of the modifier. The optimum conditions for preparing of the modified electrode and determination of INZ are selected by performing electrochemical experiments. The voltammetric response of the sensor is linear from 0.3 to 40 nM INZ under optimal conditions and the detection limit of the sensor is 0.1 nM. The validity and performance of the prepared sensor were confirmed by determining the amount of INZ in the drug and urine as real samples. The composite of doped nanoparticles and nickel ferrite is an innovative modification material to create electrochemical sensors with high sensitivity and selectivity that can be used in pharmaceutical applications.

Abstract
With the increasing number of patients suffering from Parkinson's disease, the importance of measuring drug levels in patient body fluids has increased exponentially, particularly for the drug clozapine. There is a growing demand for real-time analysis of biofluids on a single low-cost platform in ultra-low fluid volumes with robustness. This study aims to measure the level of clozapine (Clz) with a portable potentiostat using a practical approach. For this purpose, we developed an inexpensive, portable platform via electrochemistry on a commercial glucose test strip (CTS). CTSs were first modified by removing the enzyme mixture from the surface of the sensing zone, which was followed by modification with Multi walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and Nafion. The electrochemical characteristics of CTS electrodes were investigated using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential voltammetry (DPV) techniques. The designed sensor displayed decent linear range, detection limit, reproducibility, and reusability results. A linear dynamic range of 0.1-5 μM clozapine was observed under optimized conditions with a good sensitivity (1.295 μA/μM) and detection limit (83 nM). Furthermore, the designed sensing electrode was used to measure the amount of Clz in real samples.

Abstract
AbstractClozapine (CLZ) is one of the most vital medications for managing schizophrenia, and the timely measurement of CLZ levels has been recognized as an obstacle to the wider use of CLZ. Herein, for the first time, nickel-doped graphene nanotubes (Ni@GRNT) were used to construct an electrochemical CLZ sensor by drop coating Ni@GRNT suspension on a glassy carbon electrode. The Ni@GRNT was synthesized and characterized using X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The electrochemical behavior and influence of different physicochemical factors of sensing electrodes were investigated by using cyclic voltammetry, EIS technique, and differential pulse voltammetry techniques. Also, the catalytic rate constant (kcat) and the transfer coefficient (α) were calculated. The modified electrode illustrated satisfactory linear range, detection limit (LOD), reusability, and reproducibility results. At optimal experimental conditions, measurements can be performed at a broad linear dynamic range of 0.3 nmol L−1–60.0 μmol L−1 CLZ and with a LOD of 0.1 nmol L−1. The sensitivity value was estimated to be 3.06 μA µmol L−1 cm−2. Ultimately, this platform was successfully used for CLZ sensing in spiked human blood serum and tablet samples with an accuracy of > 93%.

Abstract
At present, the content of antipsychotics in samples is always analyzed by traditional detection methods, including mass spectrometry (MS), spectrophotometry, fluorescence, capillary electrophoresis (CE). However, conventional methods are cumbersome and complex, require a large sample volume, many pre-processing steps, long analysis cycles, expensive instruments, and need well-trained detection capabilities personnel. In addition, patients with schizophrenia require frequent and painful blood collection procedures, which adds additional treatment costs and time burdens. In view of these factors, electrochemical methods have become the most promising candidate technology for timely analysis due to their low cost, simple operation, excellent sensitivity and specificity. As we all know, nanomaterials play an extremely important role in electrochemical sensing applications. As the sensor modifiers, nanomaterials enable electrochemical analysis to overcome the time-consuming and labor-intensive shortcomings of traditional detection methods, and greatly reduce the research cost. Nanomaterials modified electrodes can be used as sensors to determine the concentration of antipsychotics in organisms quickly and accurately, which is a bright spot in the application of nanomaterials. The combination of different nanomaterials can even form a nanocomposite with a synergistic effect. This paper firstly reviews the application of nanomaterials-modified sensors on the basis of research in the past ten years, reviews the use of nanomaterial-modified sensors to quickly and accurately determine the concentration of antipsychotics in biological samples, and demonstrates a new idea of using nanomaterials sensors for drug monitoring and determination. At the end of this review, a brief overview is given of the limitations and the future prospects of nanomaterial sensors for the determination of antipsychotics concentrations.

Abstract
Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) have been widely investigated in recent years due to their outstanding physicochemical properties. Their remarkable characteristics allied to their capability of being easily synthesized and combined with other materials have allowed their use as electrochemical sensing platforms. In this work, we survey recent applications of GQDs-based nanocomposites in electrochemical sensors and biosensors. Firstly, the main characteristics and synthesis methods of GQDs are addressed. Next, the strategies generally used to obtain the GQDs nanocomposites are discussed. Emphasis is given on the applications of GQDs combined with distinct 0D, 1D, 2D nanomaterials, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), ionic liquids, as well as other types of materials, in varied electrochemical sensors and biosensors for detecting analytes of environmental, medical, and agricultural interest. We also discuss the current trends and challenges towards real applications of GQDs in electrochemical sensors.

Abstract
A novel nanomaterial is synthesized based on the functionalization of graphene quantum dot with dimercaprol (GQD-DMC). Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) are used to approve the successful synthesis of GQD-DMC. The synthesized nanomaterial is used as an electrode modifier for the sensitive and selective determination of mercury(ii) ions in real water samples. The method of evaluation is based on the pre-concentration of mercury ions on the GQD-DMC modified glassy carbon electrode, reduction of Hg(ii), and anodic stripping voltammetric measurement of these reduced ions in a buffer solution. The pre-concentration of mercury ions is driven by the affinity interaction between the surface containing functional groups of DMC and Hg(ii) ions. The GQD-DMC modified glassy carbon electrode (GQD-DMC/GCE) shows extra sensitivity and selectivity for mercury(ii) detection, which is assumed to be due to the increased surface area as well as the presence of sulfur-containing functional groups on the modified structure.

Abstract
This present study describes the synthesis of ultrafine Bi-Sn nanoparticles decorated on carbon aerogels (Bi-Sn NP/CAG) as a nanocomposite for the electrochemical simultaneous determination of dopamine (DA) and clozapine (CLZ). The typical characterization techniques, such as XRD, Raman, BET, FT-IR, TGA, XPS, and FE-SEM/TEM, showed useful insights into the crystal phase and morphology of Bi-Sn NP/CAG. Integrated Bi-Sn NP/CAG built into a cost-effective screen printed carbon electrode (SPCE) offers a high electrochemical surface area (ECSA) compared to unmodified, Bi-Sn, and CAG/SPCEs, such that it favourably allowed the binding of DA and CLZ molecules onto the surface at the Bi-Sn/CAG, which was demonstrated by cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry techniques. As a result, the DA and CLZ sensing exhibited low detection limits (DL, 4.6 and 97.6 nM (S/N = 3)), and sensitivity (3.402 and 0.4 μA μM-1 cm-2) over a wide linear range (0.02-97.59 and 0.5-2092 μM), respectively. To go a step further, the Bi-Sn NP/CAG/SPCE was applied for the simultaneous determination of DA and CLZ which featured lower DL (23.1 and 31.3 nM (S/N = 3)), and sensitivity (0.4979 and 0.04 μA μM-1 cm-2) over a wide linear range (2-182 and 10-910 μM), respectively. The selectivity for DA and CLZ in the presence of a 10-fold concentration of their potentially interfering active species was demonstrated. Finally, this sensing methodology enables the rapid electrochemical determination of the amount of DA and CLZ in a rat brain region serum sample with successful recovery outcomes.

Abstract
PC software-based portable cyclic voltammetry (PCV) systems have the advantages of portability, high performance, and real-time detection. In this paper, the PCV system used cyclic voltammetry (CV) as the main detection and analysis method and contained the following components: a three-electrode unit, a portable potentiostat, and PC software. The PC software was used as the system control and display, and a dynamic peak position adjustment (DPPA) algorithm for E. coli measurements based on thick biofilm modification on electrodes was designed especially for this system to realize the real-time correspondence between the measured results and the modified electrodes. The performance test results obtained by setting different detection parameters in the PCV system were compared with those of commercial electrochemical workstations. The difference was less than 4.99%, with a relative standard deviation less than 0.20%. An electrochemical biosensor based on a Prussian blue-multiwalled carbon nanotube-gold nanoparticle composite was developed for E. coli detection. After constructing an antibody-BSA-E. coli electrode modification on the sensor, experimental data processed by the DPPA algorithm showed that the logarithm (lg DfE.coli) of the E. coli dilution factor and the peak current response had a linear relationship. The PCV system could quickly and accurately detect E. coli concentrations with dynamic adjustment algorithms for biofilm-modified electrodes. Furthermore, the system could detect the electrochemical activities of various high-sensitivity biomolecules, showing great detection potential for on-site monitoring and meeting the requirements of real-time and portable detection in various food safety fields.

Abstract
The antipsychotic clozapine is the most effective medication available for schizophrenia and it is the only antipsychotic with a known efficacious clinical range. However, it is dramatically underutilized due to the inability to test clozapine blood levels in finger-pricked patients' samples. This prevents obtaining immediate blood levels information, resulting in suboptimal treatment. The development of an electrochemical microsensor is presented, which enables, for the first time, clozapine detection in microliters volume whole blood. The sensor is based on a microelectrode modified with micrometer-thick biopolymer chitosan encapsulating carbon nanotubes. The developed sensor detects clozapine oxidation current, in the presence of other electroactive species in the blood, which generate overlapping electrochemical signals. Clozapine detection, characterized in whole blood from healthy volunteers, displays a sensitivity of 32 ± 3.0 µA cm-2 µmol-1 L and a limit-of-detection of 0.5 ± 0.03 µmol L-1 . Finally, the developed sensor displays a reproducible electrochemical signal (0.6% relative standard deviation) and high storage stability (9.8% relative standard deviation after 8 days) in serum samples and high repeatability (9% relative standard deviation for the 5th repetition) in whole blood samples. By enabling the rapid and minimally invasive clozapine detection at the point-of-care, an optimal schizophrenia treatment is provided.
