Graphene as a rational interface for enhanced adsorption of microcystin-LR from water. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 458:131737. [PMID: 37453354 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.131737] [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: 01/19/2023] [Revised: 05/27/2023] [Accepted: 05/28/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023]
Abstract
Cyanotoxins such as microcystin-LR (MC-LR) represent a global environmental threat to ecosystems and drinking water supplies. The study investigated the direct use of graphene as a rational interface for removal of MC-LR via interactions with the aromatic ring of the ADDA1 chain of MC-LR and the sp2 hybridized carbon network of graphene. Intra-particle diffusion model fit indicated the high mesoporosity of graphene provided significant enhancements to both adsorption capacities and kinetics when benchmarked against microporous granular activated carbon (GAC). Graphene showed superior MC-LR adsorption capacity of 75.4 mg/g (Freundlich model) compared to 0.982 mg/g (Langmuir model) for GAC. Sorption kinetic studies showed graphene adsorbs 99% of MC-LR in 30 min, compared to zero removal for GAC after 24 hr using the same MC-LR concentration. Density functional theory (DFT), calculations showed that postulated π-based interactions align well with the NMR-based experimental work used to probe primary interactions between graphene and MC-LR adduct. This study proved that π-interactions between the aromatic ring on MC-LR and graphene sp2 orbitals are a dominant interaction. With rapid kinetics and adsorption capacities much higher than GAC, it is anticipated that graphene will offer a novel molecular approach for removal of toxins and emerging contaminants with aromatic systems.

Development of a chiral electrochemical sensor based on copper-amino acid mercaptide nanorods for enantioselective discrimination of tryptophan enantiomers. Anal Chim Acta 2023; 1272:341480.

Abstract
Chirality is an important property of nature and it regulates fundamental phenomena in nature and organisms. Here, we develop a chiral electrochemical sensor based on copper-amino acid mercaptide nanorods (L-CuCys NRs) to discriminate tryptophan (Trp) isomers. The chiral L-CuCys NRs are prepared in alkaline solution based on the facile coordination reaction between the sulfhydryl groups of L-Cys and copper ions. Since the stability constant (K) of L-CuCys NRs with L-Trp (752) are much higher than that of L-CuCys NRs with D-Trp (242), the cross-linking bonds between L-CuCys NRs and L-Trp are more stable than those between L-CuCys NRs and D-Trp. Consequently, this electrochemical sensor can selectively recognize the Trp isomers with an enantiomeric electrochemical difference ratio (IL-Trp/ID-Trp) of 3.22, and it exhibits a detection limit of 0.26 μM for L-Trp. Moreover, this electrochemical sensor can quantitatively measure Trp isomers in complex samples. Importantly, this electrochemical sensor has the characteristics of high stability, good repeatability, easy fabrication, low cost, and efficient discrimination of tryptophan (Trp) isomers.

Abstract
The identification of cysteine enantiomers is of great significance in the biopharmaceutical industry and medical diagnostics. Herein, we develop an electrochemical sensor to discriminate cysteine (Cys) enantiomers based on the integration of a copper metal-organic framework (Cu-MOF) with an ionic liquid. Because the combine energy of D-cysteine (D-Cys) with Cu-MOF (-9.905 eV) is lower than that of L-cysteine (L-Cys) with Cu-MOF (-9.694 eV), the decrease in the peak current of the Cu-MOF/GCE induced by D-Cys is slightly higher than that induced by L-Cys in the absence of an ionic liquid. In contrast, the combine energy of L-Cys with an ionic liquid (-1.084 eV) is lower than that of D-Cys with an ionic liquid (-1.052 eV), and the ionic liquid is easier to cross-link with L-Cys than with D-Cys. When an ionic liquid is present, the decrease in the peak current of the Cu-MOF/GCE induced by D-Cys is much higher than that induced by L-Cys. Consequently, this electrochemical sensor can efficiently discriminate D-Cys from L-Cys, and it can sensitively detect D-Cys with a detection limit of 0.38 nM. Moreover, this electrochemical sensor exhibits good selectivity, and it can accurately measure the spiked D-Cys in human serum with a recovery ratio of 100.2-102.6%, with wide applications in biomedical research and drug discovery.

Abstract
A novel ratiometric electrochemiluminescence (ECL) system based on gold nanostars (AuNSs) support was constructed for the determination of hypotonicity-induced ATP release from HepG2 cells. AuNS@Lu nanoprobe was used as anodic luminophore and K2S2O8 as cathodic luminophore as well as anodic co-reactant. AuNS with the large specific surface was adopted to adsorb plentiful luminol to form solid-state probe and as affinity support to immobilize ATP aptamer (Apt). The obtained nanocomposite (Apt-AuNS@Lu) generated a strong ECL signal at + 0.4 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) with co-reactant K2S2O8, because of excellent conductivity and catalytic activity of AuNS. Furthermore, graphene oxide was reduced onto indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes to facilitate the electron transfer. Following, polydopamine (PDA) film was formed via self-polymerization, improving stability and adhesion of the electrode surface. To immobilize ATP capture aptamer (AptC), abounding AuNSs were attached to RGO/PDA surface. When the sensor was incubated in the mixture solution of Apt-AuNS@Lu and target ATP, the ECL signal of Apt-AuNS@Lu increased with the increase of ATP concentration, meanwhile, the signal of K2S2O8 declined. The ratio of the two luminophores was used for the quantitative determination of ATP. The linear range was 5 to 250 nM, and the limit of detection was 1.4 nM at (3σ)/S. The method was successfully applied to analyze ATP release from HepG2 cells stimulated by 0.45% NaCl hypotonic solution. The results showed that the release kinetics profile of ATP had a sigmoidal shape with rapid release within 10 min and then slowed. Compared to the isotonic groups, the intracellular ATP concentration was 3.7 ± 0.3 µM (n = 3) decreasing by 40.3% and the extracellular was 23.4 ± 1.2 nM (n = 3) increasing by 9.2 times in the hypotonicity for 10 min, which showed ATP release from cells and good agreement with commercial ELISA test. The proposed strategy would be beneficial to broadening application of ECL technology in studying cell biological functions.

Tuning the sensing responses towards room-temperature hypersensitive methanol gas sensor using exfoliated graphene-enhanced ZnO quantum dot nanostructures.

Abstract
A suitable and non-invasive methanol sensor workable in ambient temperature conditions with a high response has gained wide interest to prevent detrimental consequences for industrial workers from its low-level intoxication. In this work, we present a tunable and highly responsive ppb-level methanol gas sensor device working at room temperature via a bottom-up synthetic approach using exfoliated graphene sheet (EGs) and ZnO quantum dots (QDs) on an aluminum anodic oxide (AAO) template. It is verified that EGs-supported AAO with a vertical electrode configuration enabled high and fast-responsive methanol sensing. Moreover, the hydroxyl and carboxyl groups of the high surface area EGs and ZnO QDs with a 3.37 eV bandgap efficiently absorbing UV light led to 56 times high response due to the enhanced polarization on the sensor surface compared to non-UV-radiated EGs/AAO at 800 ppb of methanol. The optimal resonance frequency of methanol is determined to be 100 kHz, which could detect methanol with high response of 2.65% at 100 ppm. The limit of detection (LOD) concentration is obtained at 2 ppb level. This study demonstrates the potential of UV-assisted ZnO, EGs, and AAO-based capacitance sensor material for rapidly detecting hazardous gaseous light organic molecules at ambient conditions, and the overall approach can be easily expanded to a novel non-invasive monitoring strategy for light and hazardous volatile organic exposures.

Abstract
This study develops a highly sensitive and low-cost carboxyl-graphene-oxide-based planar optical waveguide localized surface plasmon resonance biosensor (GO-OW LSPR biosensor), a system based on measuring light intensity changes. The structure of the sensing chip comprises an optical waveguide (OW)-slide glass and microfluidic-poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) substrate, and the OW-slide glass surface-modified gold nanoparticle (AuNP) combined with graphene oxide (GO). As the GO has an abundant carboxyl group (–COOH), the number of capture molecules can be increased. The refractive index sensing system uses silver-coated reflective film to compare the refractive index sensitivity of the GO-OW LSPR biosensor to increase the refractive index sensitivity. The result shows that the signal variation of the system with the silver-coated reflective film is 1.57 times that of the system without the silver-coated reflective film. The refractive index sensitivity is 5.48 RIU−1 and the sensor resolution is 2.52 ± 0.23 × 10−6 RIU. The biochemical sensing experiment performs immunoglobulin G (IgG) and streptavidin detection. The limits of detection of the sensor for IgG and streptavidin are calculated to be 23.41 ± 1.54 pg/mL and 5.18 ± 0.50 pg/mL, respectively. The coefficient of variation (CV) of the repeatability experiment (sample numbers = 3) is smaller than 10.6%. In addition, the affinity constants of the sensor for anti-IgG/IgG and biotin/streptavidin are estimated to be 1.06 × 107 M−1 and 7.30 × 109 M−1, respectively. The result shows that the GO-OW LSPR biosensor has good repeatability and very low detection sensitivity. It can be used for detecting low concentrations or small biomolecules in the future.

Abstract
In recent years, with the rapid development of electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensors, more luminophores have been designed to achieve high-throughput and reliable analysis. Impressively, after the proposed fantastic concept of "aggregation-induced electrochemiluminescence (AIECL)" by Cola, the application of AIECL emitters provides more abundant choices for the further improvement of ECL sensors. In this review, we briefly report the phenomenon, principle and representative applications of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) and AIECL emitters. Moreover, it is noteworthy that the cases of AIECL sensors for bioanalytical detection are summarized in detail, from 2017 to now. Finally, inspired by the applications of AIECL emitters, relevant prospects and challenges for AIECL sensors are proposed, which is of great significance for exploring more advanced bioanalytical detection technology.

Abstract
The use of Graphene based materials, such as graphene oxide (GO), in biosensing applications is gaining significant interest, due to high signal output, with strong potential for high industrial growth rate. Graphene's excellent conduction and mechanical properties (such as toughness and elasticity) coupled with high reactivity to chemical molecules are some of its appealing properties. The presence of ripples on the surface (whether indigenous or induced) represents another property/variable that provide enormous potential if harnessed properly. In this article, we review the current knowledge regarding the use of graphene for biosensing. We discuss briefly the general topic of using graphene for biosensing applications with special emphasis on wearable graphene-based biosensors. The intrinsic ripples of graphene and their effect on graphene biosensing capabilities are thoroughly discussed. We dedicate a section also for the manipulation of intrinsic ripples. Then we review the use of Graphene oxide (GO) in biosensing and discuss the effect of ripples on its properties. We present a review of the current biosensor devices made out of GO for detection of different molecular targets. Finally, we present some thoughts for future perspectives and opportunities of this field. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Biosensors are tools that detect the presence and amount of a chemical substance, such as pregnancy tests and glucose monitoring devices. They are general portable, have short response times and are sensitive, making them highly effective. Gold and silver are used in biosensors and more recently, graphene. Graphene is sheets of carbon atoms and is the only two-dimensional crystal in nature. It has unique features allowing its effective use in biosensing applications, including the presence of ripples (non-flat areas that give it its electronic properties). The last comprehensive review of this topic was published in 2016. This paper reviews the current knowledge of graphene based biosensors, with a focus on ripples and their effect on graphene biosensing capabilities.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
In this label-free bioassay, an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor was developed for the quantification of breast cancer using HER-2 protein as a metastatic biomarker.
Method
For this purpose, the ECL emitter, [Ru(bpy)3]2+, was embedded into biocompatible chitosan (CS) polymer. The prepared bio-composite offered high ECL reading due to the depletion of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) protein. Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was used as substrate to increase signal stability and achieve greater sensitivity. For this, rGO was initially placed electrochemically on the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface by cyclic voltammetry (CV) technique. Next, the prepared CS/[Ru(bpy)3]2+ biopolymer solution was coated on a drop of the modified electrode such that the amine groups of CS and the carboxylic groups of rGO could covalently interact. Using EDC/NHS chemistry, monoclonal antibodies (Abs) of HER-2 were linked to CS/[Ru(bpy)3]2+/rGO/GCE via amide bonds between the carboxylic groups of Ab molecules and amine groups of CS. The electrochemical behavior of the electrode was studied using different electrochemical techniques such as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV) and also ECL tests.
Results
After passing all optimization steps, the lower limit of detection (LLOQ) and linear dynamic range (LDR) of HER-2 protein were practically obtained as 1 fM and 1 fM to 1 nM, individually. Importantly, the within and between laboratory precisions were performed and the suitable relative standard deviations (RSDs) were recorded as 3.1 and 3.5%, respectively.
Conclusions
As a proof of concept, the designed immunosensor was desirably applied for the quantification of HER-2 protein in breast cancer suffering patients. As a result, the designed ECL-based immunosensor has the capability of being used as a conventional test method in biomedical laboratories for early detection of HER-2 protein in biological fluids.

Ahmadi H, Keshipour S, Ahour F. New water-soluble colorimetric pH and metal ione sensor based on graphene quantum dot modified with alizarine red S. Sci Rep 2020; 10:14185. [PMID: 32843664 PMCID: PMC7447796 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-70821-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2020] [Accepted: 08/05/2020] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
A new colorimetric sensor was designed for the screening pH changes in solutions, as well as, detection of some cations. The sensor preparation includes the chemical binding of alizarine red S (ARS) as a sensor of pH and cation to graphene quantum dots (GQD). Loading ARS on GQD led to the formation of water soluble sensor which finally responded to the colorimetric detection of some cations in water. Solubility and stability of the sensor in water indicate that the sensor is an ideal system for the biological and environmental applications. To demonstrate the applicability of the new sensor, the colorimetric responds of sensor were examined for some cations including Fe3+, Co2+, Ca2+, As3+, Cd2+, Hg2+, Pb2+, Sn2+, Al3+, and Cr3+. The colorimetric detections of all the ions were performable individually in a solution. In addition, GQD-ARS as a colorimetric sensor detected Co2+ at pH < 0.6 with limit of quantification 0.08 mM and Fe3+ at 0.6 < pH < 4.0 with limit of quantification 0.03 mM in the mixture of cations.

Abstract
Given the outstanding room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) of Mn–ZnS quantum dots (QDs) and the specific recognition performance of the aptamer, we built phosphorescent composites from aptamers conjugated with polyethyleneimine quantum dots (PEI-QDs) and applied them to cytochrome c (Cyt c) detection. Specifically, QDs/CBA composites were generated from the electrostatic interaction between the positively-charged PEI-QDs and the negatively-charged Cyt c binding aptamer (CBA). With the presence of Cyt c, the Cyt c can specifically bind with the QDs/CBA composites, and quench the RTP of QDs through photoinduced electron-transfer (PIET). Thereby, an optical biosensor for Cyt c detection was built, which had a detection range of 0.166–9.96 μM and a detection limit of 0.084 μM. This aptamer-mediated phosphorescent sensor with high specificity and operational simplicity can effectively avoid the interference of scattering light from complex substrates. Our findings offer a new clue for building biosensors based on QDs and aptamers. In this study, the nanocomposites from polyethyleneimine-capped Mn-doped ZnS QDs (PEI-QDs) and Cyt c binding aptamer (CBA) were prepared and used as Cyt c RTP sensors..![]()

Abstract
Herein, we explore a new carbon source for preparation of carbon quantum dots (CQDs) with controllable composition using a porous organic polymer (POP) derived porous carbon via a nitric acid oxidation method. The POP used for the preparation of CQDs was synthesized by mechanochemical Friedel–Crafts alkylation under solvent free conditions. Using the as-prepared CQDs, we develop a simple and effective electrochemiluminescence (ECL) detection method for dopamine (DA) using a CQD/chitosan–graphene composite modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE). Both the electrochemical and ECL behaviors were studied in detail with ammonium persulfate as a coreactant. The complementary structure and synergistic function of the composite give the ECL sensor special properties. Apart from the high stability, it also presents good repeatability and high sensitivity to DA with a wide linear range from 0.06 to 1.6 μM. And a satisfactory detection limit of 0.028 μM (S/N = 3) was achieved for the prepared sensor. Furthermore, the ECL also shows high selectivity toward DA with an excellent interference resistance ability at a high concentration ratio of 100 (Cinterference : CDA = 100). In addition, the ECL sensor was successfully applied for effective detection and quantitative analysis of the actual dopamine in human body fluids for disease diagnosis and pathological studies. CQDs were obtained from a POP derived porous carbon via nitric acid oxidation. CQDs/CG composite film with special properties were fabricated and used for ECL detection of DA in human body fluids.![]()

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Recently, the use of chitosan (CS) in the drug delivery has reached an acceptable maturity. Graphene-based drug delivery is also increasing rapidly due to its unique physical, mechanical, chemical, and electrical properties. Therefore, the combination of CS and graphene can provide a promising carrier for the loading and controlled release of therapeutic agents. AREAS COVERED In this review, we will outline the advantages of this new drug delivery system (DDS) in association with CS and graphene alone and will list the various forms of these carriers, which have been studied in recent years as DDSs. Finally, we will discuss the application of this hybrid composite in other fields. EXPERT OPINION The introducing the GO amends the mechanical characteristics of CS, which is a major problem in the use of CS-based carriers in drug delivery due to burst release in a CS-based controlled release system through the poor mechanical strength of CS. Many related research on this area are still not fully unstated and occasionally they seem inconsistent in spite of the intent to be complementary. Therefore, a sensitive review may be needed to understand the role of graphene in CS/graphene carriers for future drug delivery applications.

Abstract
Antibiotics are a type of antimicrobial drug with the ubiquitous presence in foodstuff that effectively applied to treat the diseases and promote the animal growth worldwide. Chloramphenicol as one of the antibiotics with the broad action spectrum against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria is widely applied for the effective treatment of infectious diseases in humans and animals. Unfortunately, the serious side effects of chloramphenicol, such as aplastic anemia, kidney damage, nausea, and diarrhea restrict its application in foodstuff and biomedical fields. Development of the sufficiently sensitive methods to detect chloramphenicol residues in food and clinical diagnosis seems to be an essential demand. Biosensors have been introduced as the promising tools to overcome the requirement. As one of the newest types of the biosensors, aptamer-based biosensors (aptasensors) are the efficient sensing platforms for the chloramphenicol monitoring. In the present review, we summarize the recent achievements of the accessible aptasensors for qualitative detection and quantitative determination of chloramphenicol as a candidate of the antibiotics. The present chloramphenicol aptasensors can be classified in two main optical and electrochemical categories. Also, the other formats of the aptasensing assays like the high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and microchip electrophoresis (MCE) have been reviewed. The enormous interest in utilizing the diverse nanomaterials is also highlighted in the fabrication of the chloramphenicol aptasensors. Finally, some results are presented based on the advantages and disadvantages of the studied aptasensors to achieve a promising perspective for designing the novel antibiotics test kits.

Abstract
A novel approach for the preparation of dual-functional carbon dots, i.e., nitrogen- and chloride-doped carbon dots, abbreviated as N/Cl-CDs, is developed with the assistance of a choline chloride-glycerine deep eutectic solvent (DES). The carbon source is provided by urea and the DES serves as a solvent for controlling the preparation of CDs in the absence of water. The dual-element doped carbon dots are oxygen-rich with hydroxyl and amine groups. They exhibit an average particle size of ca. 3.88 nm and give rise to strong and pH-sensitive fluorescent emission at λex/λem = 340/430 nm with a quantum yield of 16.15 ± 1.36%. It is particularly interesting to see that the fluorescence of N/Cl-CDs remains stable in a high-salinity matrix, providing vast potentials for treating real biological sample matrixes with high salinity. The N/Cl-CDs provide an optical probe for intracellular pH sensing and multicolor imaging in HeLa cells. In addition, the N/Cl-CDs show obvious fluorescence response to cytochrome c (cyt- c) with a detection limit of 3.6 mg L-1 (ca. 0.29 μmol L-1) within in a range of 10-500 mg L-1, providing potentials for fluorescence detection of cyt- c as well as facilitating intracellular cyt- c imaging.

Abstract
The authors have developed a homogeneous "off-on" fluorometric method for the determination of the antibiotic sulfamethazine (SMZ). Aptamer against SMZ was labeled with graphene oxide quantum dots upon which the Graphene oxide quenched the blue fluorescence of the GOQDs. On addition of SMZ, the aptamers will bind SMZ and this will cause the release of GOQDs. As a result, fluorescence will be regenerated. Fluorescence, best measured at excitation/emission wavelengths of 365/455 nm, increases linearly in the 8 pg·mL-1 to 60 ng·mL-1 SMZ concentration range, with a 5 pg·mL-1 detection limit. The method is reliable and was successfully applied to the determination of SMZ in spiked milk samples, with recoveries ranging from 89 to 96% depending on analyte concentration. Graphical abstract Graphene oxide quantum dots (GOQDs) were covalently bound to the aptamer (apt) against sulfamethazine (SMZ) and adsorbed on the surface of graphene oxide (GO). This results in quenching of the fluorescence of GOQDs. On addition of SMZ, fluorescence is restored due to the release of GOQD@apt from GO.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS)-graphene oxide (GO) composite films were fabricated, characterized, and evaluated as pressure-driven water filtration membranes. GO particles were incorporated into a chitosan polymer solution to form a suspension that was cast as a membrane via evaporative phase inversion allowing for scale-up for cross-flow testing conditions. Morphology and composition results for nano and granular GO in the CS matrix indicate that the particle size of GO impacts the internal membrane morphology as well as the structural order and the chemical composition. Performance of the membranes was evaluated with cationic and anionic organic probe molecules and revealed charge-dependent mechanisms of dye removal. The CSGO membranes had rejections of at least 95% for cationic methylene blue with mass balances obtained from measurements of the feed, concentrate, and permeate. This result suggests the dominant mechanism of removal is physical rejection for both GO particle sizes. For anionic methyl orange, the results indicate sorption as the dominant mechanism of removal, and performance is dependent on both GO particle size and time, with micrometer-scale GO removing 68-99% and nanometer-scale GO showing modest removal of 29-64%. The pure water flux for CSGO composite membranes ranged from 2-4.5 L/m2 h at a transmembrane pressure of 344 kPa (3.44 bar), with pure water permeance ranging from 5.8 × 10-3 to 0.01 L/m2 h kPa (0.58-1.3 L/m2 h bar). Based on the 41 μm membrane thickness obtained from microscopy, the hydraulic permeability ranged from 0.24-0.54 L μm/m2 h kPa (24.4-54.1 L μm/m2 h bar).

Abstract
This review is an attempt, for the first time, to describe advancements in sensing technology for cytochrome c (cyt c) detection, at point-of-care (POC) application. Cyt c, a heme containing metalloprotein is located in the intermembrane space of mitochondria and released into bloodstream during pathological conditions. The release of cyt c from mitochondria is a key initiative step in the activation of cell death pathways. Circulating cyt c levels represents a novel in-vivo marker of mitochondrial injury after resuscitation from heart failure and chemotherapy. Thus, cyt c detection is not only serving as an apoptosis biomarker, but also is of great importance to understand certain diseases at cellular level. Various existing techniques such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), Western blot, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), spectrophotometry and flow cytometry have been used to estimate cyt c. However, the implementation of these techniques at POC application is limited due to longer analysis time, expensive instruments and expertise needed for operation. To overcome these challenges, significant efforts are being made to develop electrochemical biosensing technologies for fast, accurate, selective, and sensitive detection of cyt c. Presented review describes the cutting edge technologies available in the laboratories to detect cyt c. The recent advancements in designing and development of electrochemical cyt c biosensors for the quantification of cyt c are also discussed. This review also highlights the POC cyt c biosensors developed recently, that would prove of interest to biologist and therapist to get real time informatics needed to evaluate death process, diseases progression, therapeutics and processes related with mitochondrial injury.

Abstract
A novel electrochemiluminescence (ECL) aptasensor was proposed for ultrasensitive detection of cytochrome c (cyt c) using CdS:Mn quantum dot-modified TiO2 nanowires (NWs) as electrode. The Mn-doped CdS was deposited on the TiO2 NWs by successive ion layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) as ECL emitter, on which thiol-modified aptamer of cyt c was attached via Cd-S bond. Due to the high photo-electrical transfer efficiency, the as-prepared aptasensor shows high selectivity and sensitivity towards cyt c with a detection limit of 9.5fM and a linear range from 50fM to 125pM.
