[PMID: 39179551 PMCID: PMC11333613 DOI: 10.1038/s41378-024-00663-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2023] [Revised: 10/21/2023] [Accepted: 12/02/2023] [Indexed: 08/22/2024]
Abstract
The development of a wearable, easy-to-fabricate, and stable intelligent minisystem is highly desired for the closed-loop management of diabetes. Conventional systems always suffer from large size, high cost, low stability, or complex fabrication. Here, we show for the first time a wearable, rapidly manufacturable, stability-enhancing microneedle patch for diabetes management. The patch consists of a graphene composite ink-printed sensor on hollow microneedles, a polyethylene glycol (PEG)-functionalized electroosmotic micropump integrated with the microneedles, and a printed circuit board for precise and intelligent control of the sensor and pump to detect interstitial glucose and deliver insulin through the hollow channels. Via synthesizing and printing the graphene composite ink, the sensor fabrication process is fast and the sensing electrodes are stable. The PEG functionalization enables the micropump a significantly higher stability in delivering insulin, extending its lifetime from days to weeks. The patch successfully demonstrated excellent blood glucose control in diabetic rats. This work may introduce a new paradigm for building new closed-loop systems and shows great promise for widespread use in patients with diabetes.

Abstract
The global increase in population aging has led to a rise in neurodegenerative diseases (NDs), posing significant challenges to public health. Developing selective and specific biomarkers for early diagnosis and drug development is crucial addressing the growing burden of NDs. In this context, the RNA-binding protein TDP-43 has emerged as a promising biomarker for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), and TDP-43-associated proteinopathies. However, existing detection methods suffer from limitations such as cost, complexity, and operator dependence. Here, we present a novel electrochemical biosensor integrated into a lab-on-chip (LoC) platform to detect TDP-43. The sensor utilizes electrosynthesized polypyrrole derivatives with carboxylic groups for transducer functionalization, enabling targeted immobilization of TDP-43 antibodies. Differential pulsed voltammetry (DPV) is used for the indirect detection and quantification of TDP-43. The chip exhibits rapid response, good reproducibility, a linear detection range, and sensitivity from 0.01 ng/mL to 25 ng/mL of TDP-43 protein concentration with a LOD = 10 pg/mL. Furthermore, successful TDP-43 detection in complex matrices like serum of ALS patients and healthy individuals demonstrates its potential as a point-of-care diagnostic device. This electrochemical biosensor integrated into a chip offers good sensitivity, rapid response, and robust performance, providing a promising avenue for advancing neurodegenerative disease diagnostics and therapeutic development.

Abstract
Conjugated polymers (CPs) have promising applications in biomedical fields, such as disease monitoring, real-time imaging diagnosis, and disease treatment. As a promising luminescent material with tunable emission, high brightness and excellent stability, CPs are widely used as fluorescent probes in biological detection and imaging. Rational molecular design and structural optimization have broadened absorption/emission range of CPs, which are more conductive for disease diagnosis and precision therapy. This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent advances in the application of CPs, aiming to elucidate their structural and functional relationships. The fluorescence properties of CPs and the mechanism of detection signal amplification are first discussed, followed by an elucidation of their emerging applications in biological detection. Subsequently, CPs-based imaging systems and therapeutic strategies are illustrated systematically. Finally, recent advancements in utilizing CPs as electroactive materials for bioelectronic devices are also investigated. Moreover, the challenges and outlooks of CPs for precision medicine are discussed. Through this systematic review, it is hoped to highlight the frontier progress of CPs and promote new breakthroughs in fundamental research and clinical transformation.

Abstract
A conductive nanocomposite consisting of heparin-stabilized gold nanoparticles embedded in graphene was prepared and characterized to develop an electrochemical sensor for the determination of esculetin in tea and jam samples. The gold nanoparticles were characterized by spectroscopic and microscopic techniques. The different proportions of graphene in the nanocomposite were evaluated and characterized by electrochemical practices. The heterostructure material on the glassy carbon electrode with esculetin showed π-π stacking interactions with an adsorption-controlled process. The voltammetric profile of esculetin using the proposed nanomaterial presented oxidation and reduction peaks at +0.61 and +0.58 V vs. Ag/AgCl, respectively, facilitating the electron transfer with esculetin through the transfer of two moles of protons and two moles of electrons per mole of esculetin. Using optimized conditions and square wave voltammetry, the calibration curve was obtained with two linear ranges, from 0.1 to 20.5 μmol L-1, with a detection limit of 43.0 nmol L-1. The electrochemical sensor showed satisfactory results for repeatability and stability, although interferences were observed in the presence of high concentrations of ascorbic acid or quercetin. The sensor was successfully applied in the determination of esculetin in samples of mulberry jam, white mulberry leaf tea, and white mulberry powder tea, presenting adequate recovery ranges. This directive provides valuable insights for the development of novel electrochemical sensors using heparin-based conductive nanomaterials with improved sensitivity and sensibility.

Abstract
The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 in 2019 led to the global COVID-19 pandemic, highlighting the urgency for developing cost-effective and non-invasive methods to detect diseases at an early stage. Human breath, rich in volatile organic compounds (VOCs), is promising for cost-effective and rapid disease detection, with specific VOCs like methanol, ethanal, butanone, acetone, and ethyl butyrate linked to COVID-19. Recent advances in biomarker detection and gas sensing with 2D materials, particularly III-As monolayers like BAs, GaAs, and AlAs, offer high sensitivity at low concentrations, providing a novel avenue for exploring their potential in detecting COVID-19 biomarkers. This article aims to examine the effects of adsorption on different properties of III-Arsenide (BAs, GaAs and AlAs) monolayers, particularly in connection with SARS-CoV-2 biomarkers. In order to examine the interaction between the monolayers and biomarkers, first-principles computations within the framework of density functional theory (DFT) are utilized. The present study involves an investigation of the modifications in the band structure, density of states (DOS), work function, electron density difference, and optical properties (reflectance and absorbance) of III-As monolayers, with the aim of assessing their viability for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 biomarkers along with interfering gases such as CO2 and H2O. It is observed that VOCs induce a notable change in the work function of GaAs which serves as an indicator of the presence of these biomarkers. However, the changes in work function are not as substantial as those for AlAs and BAs. Additionally, the chemiresistive sensitivity, optical sensitivity and recovery time of III-As are investigated. The findings suggest that the pristine GaAs monolayer displays a significant level of sensitivity and selectivity towards the SARS-CoV-2 biomarkers, rendering it a material with potential for utilization in sensing applications. Furthermore, it has been observed that the recovery time of the GaAs monolayer subsequent to its exposure to the VOC biomarkers lies within an acceptable threshold. Upon exposure to UV light, the recovery time is further reduced. The outcomes of our study indicate that GaAs monolayers exhibit considerable potential as chemiresistive, work function-based and optical sensors for the precise and discerning identification of VOCs linked to the SARS-CoV-2 virus compared to the other two III-As monolayers.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) are specific brain disorders characterized by the progressive deterioration of different motor activities as well as several cognitive functions. Current conventional therapeutic options for NDDs are limited in addressing underlying causes, delivering drugs to specific neuronal targets, and promoting tissue repair following brain injury. Due to the paucity of plausible theranostic options for NDDs, nanobiotechnology has emerged as a promising field, offering an interdisciplinary approach to create nanomaterials with high diagnostic and therapeutic efficacy for these diseases. Recently, two-dimensional nanomaterials (2D-NMs) have gained significant attention in biomedical and pharmaceutical applications due to their precise drug-loading capabilities, controlled release mechanisms, enhanced stability, improved biodegradability, and reduced cell toxicity. Although various studies have explored the diagnostic and therapeutic potential of different nanomaterials in NDDs, there is a lack of comprehensive review addressing the theranostic applications of 2D-NMs in these neuronal disorders. Therefore, this concise review aims to provide a state-of-the-art understanding of the need for these ultrathin 2D-NMs and their potential applications in biosensing and bioimaging, targeted drug delivery, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine for NDDs.

Abstract
Herein, the hollow Prussian blue with ultra-small silver nanoparticle agents (Ag-HPB) was prepared by the coating-etching method by applying Prussian blue (PB) coating on Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) and diffusing Ag NPs into the PB framework. The flexible biosensing platform based on Ag-HPB nanocomposites incorporated the excellent electrical conductivity of Ag NPs and the superior enzyme loading capacity of the hollow structure, which significantly enhanced its sensing performance. Subsequently, take glucose oxidase (GOx) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) as examples. The sensing platform displayed a good sensitive response to glucose (Glu) (24.37 μA mM-1 cm-2) and a considerable limit of detection (LOD) for trichlorfon (TCF) as 2.28 pg/mL while exhibiting high stability and good reproducibility. Moreover, it can be applied to monitor trichlorfon in apple samples. Promisingly, the Ag-HPB prepared by the coating-etching strategy provides a reliable strategy for further development of sensitive and flexible biosensing platforms with excellent electrical conductivity and high enzyme loading.

Abstract
Amino acids are required to make protein. The deficiency of amino acids leads to a lack of sleep and mood. Among various amino acids, we conducted the adsorption studies of alanine and asparagine amino acids on a novel one-dimensional material, chair graphene nanotube. The stability of the chair graphene nanotube is ensured with the negative formation energy, which is -6.490 eV/atom. The energy band gap of bare chair graphene nanotube is 1.022 eV, which possesses a semiconductor nature. The stable chair graphene nanotube is used as adsorbing material for alanine and asparagine amino acids. Besides, alanine and asparagine are physisorbed on chair graphene nanotubes that are confirmed by the range of adsorption energy from -0.107 eV to -0.718 eV. Upon adsorption of amino acids, the charge transfer outcome shows that chair graphene nanotubes behave as donors of electrons to alanine and asparagine. Further, the changes in the band gap of the chair graphene nanotube are noticed from the results of band structure and PDOS spectrum. The changes in the electron density also reveal the changes in the electronic properties of the chair graphene nanotube owing to alanine and asparagine sorption. The proposed report portrays the adsorption attributes of alanine and asparagine amino acids on 1D chair graphene nanotubes.

Abstract
Transition-metal dichalcogenides exhibit extraordinary optical nonlinearities, making them promising candidates for advanced photonic applications. Here, we present the microbial control over second-harmonic generation (SHG) in monolayer MoS2 and the identification of single-cell bacteria. Bacteria deposited on monolayer MoS2 induce a change in the SHG signal, in the form of anisotropic polarization responses that depend on the relative orientation of the bacteria with respect to the MoS2 crystallographic direction. The anisotropic enhancement is consistent with the presence of a tensile stress along the lateral direction of bacteria axis; SHG imaging is highly effective in monitoring biomaterial strain as low as 0.1%. We also investigate the ultraviolet-induced removal of single bacteria, through the SHG imaging of MoS2. By monitoring the transient SHG signals, we determine the rupture times for bacteria, which varies noticeably for each species. This allows us to distinguish specific bacteria that share habitats; SHG imaging is useful for label free identification of pathogens at the single cell levels such as E. coli and L. casei. This label-free detection and identification of pathogens at the single-cell level can have a profound impact on the development of diagnostic tools for various applications.

Recent developments in the field of electrochemical biosensors based on transition metal nanomaterials as transducer elements have been beneficial as they possess various functionalities that increase surface area and provide well-defined active sites to accommodate elements for rapid detection of biomolecules. In recent years, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have become the focus of interest in various applications due to their considerable physical, chemical, electronic, and optical properties. It is worth noting that their unique properties can be modulated by defect engineering and morphology control. The resulting multifunctional TMD surfaces have been explored as potential capture probes for the rapid and selective detection of biomolecules. In this review, our primary focus is to delve into the synthesis, properties, design, and development of electrochemical biosensors that are based on transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) for the detection of biomolecules. We aim to explore the potential of TMD-based electrochemical biosensors, identify the challenges that need to be overcome, and highlight the opportunities for further future development.

Abstract
The field of organic-borne biomarkers has been gaining relevance due to its suitability for diagnosing pathologies and health conditions in a rapid, accurate, non-invasive, painless and low-cost way. Due to the lack of analytical techniques with features capable of analysing such a complex matrix as the human breath, the academic community has focused on developing electronic noses based on arrays of gas sensors. These sensors are assembled considering the excitability, sensitivity and sensing capacities of a specific nanocomposite, graphene. In this way, graphene-based sensors can be employed for a vast range of applications that vary from environmental to medical applications. This review work aims to gather the most relevant published papers under the scope of "Graphene sensors" and "Biomarkers" in order to assess the state of the art in the field of graphene sensors for the purposes of biomarker identification. During the bibliographic search, a total of six pathologies were identified as the focus of the work. They were lung cancer, gastric cancer, chronic kidney diseases, respiratory diseases that involve inflammatory processes of the airways, like asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, sleep apnoea and diabetes. The achieved results, current development of the sensing sensors, and main limitations or challenges of the field of graphene sensors are discussed throughout the paper, as well as the features of the experiments addressed.

Abstract
Breast cancer has garnered global attention due to its high incidence worldwide, and even more noteworthy is that approximately 90% deaths due to breast cancer are attributed to cancer metastasis. Therefore, the early diagnosis of breast cancer metastasis holds significant importance for reducing mortality outcomes. Biosensors play a crucial role in the early detection of metastatic breast cancer due to their advantages, such as ease of use, portability, and real-time analysis capabilities. This review primarily described various types of sensors for detecting breast cancer metastasis based on biomarkers and cell characteristics, including electrochemical, optical, and microfluidic chips. We offered detailed descriptions of the performance of these various biosensors and made comparisons between them. Furthermore, we described the pathology of breast cancer and summarized commonly used biomarkers for metastatic breast cancer. Finally, we discussed the advantages of current-stage biosensors and the challenges that need to be addressed, as well as prospects for their future development.

Abstract
Diabetes management can be considered the first paradigm of modern personalized medicine. An overview of the most relevant advancements in glucose sensing achieved in the last 5 years is presented. In particular, devices exploiting both consolidated and innovative electrochemical sensing strategies, based on nanomaterials, have been described, taking into account their performances, advantages and limitations, when applied for the glucose analysis in blood and serum samples, urine, as well as in less conventional biological fluids. The routine measurement is still largely based on the finger-pricking method, which is usually considered unpleasant. In alternative, glucose continuous monitoring relies on electrochemical sensing in the interstitial fluid, using implanted electrodes. Due to the invasive nature of such devices, further investigations have been carried out in order to develop less invasive sensors that can operate in sweat, tears or wound exudates. Thanks to their unique features, nanomaterials have been successfully applied for the development of both enzymatic and non-enzymatic glucose sensors, which are compliant with the specific needs of the most advanced applications, such as flexible and deformable systems capable of conforming to skin or eyes, in order to produce reliable medical devices operating at the point of care.

Abstract
Density functional theory calculations of 2D materials and biological molecules have been used to evaluate disease progression through biosensing. In this case, a glycine molecule in normal and zwitterionic form was evaluated on its interaction with zigzag single-walled carbon nanotubes, graphene sheets, and molybdenum disulfide sheets. Glycine was rotated in order to interact with the materials at different active sites. Binding and cohesion energies, band gaps, and charge transfer for the systems were obtained. Binding and cohesion for the interaction between normal glycine and 2D materials result in better outcomes with the presence of a dangling bond using van der Waals correction, giving the more stable results for glycine and carbon nanotubes in the plane ZY and glycine with graphene in the plane YX, respectively. For zwitterion glycine, binding and cohesion energies are better without a dangling bond supported on graphene in the plane ZX. Charge transfer results for normal glycine show a better interaction for glycine and molybdenum disulfide in the plane ZY, while for zwitterion glycine, higher charge transfer is reported in graphene (ZX). Furthermore, the density of states of normal glycine exhibits an improvement in the band gap for carbon related materials (more semiconductor behavior) and a slight decrease in semiconductor behavior for molybdenum disulfide.

Abstract
The use of enzyme-based biosensors for the detection and quantification of analytes of interest such as contaminants of emerging concern, including over-the-counter medication, provides an attractive alternative compared to more established techniques. However, their direct application to real environmental matrices is still under investigation due to the various drawbacks in their implementation. Here, we report the development of bioelectrodes using laccase enzymes immobilized onto carbon paper electrodes modified with nanostructured molybdenum disulfide (MoS2). The laccase enzymes were two isoforms (LacI and LacII) produced and purified from the fungus Pycnoporus sanguineus CS43 that is native to Mexico. A commercial purified enzyme from the fungus Trametes versicolor (TvL) was also evaluated to compare their performance. The developed bioelectrodes were used in the biosensing of acetaminophen, a drug widely used to relieve fever and pain, and of which there is recent concern about its effect on the environment after its final disposal. The use of MoS2 as a transducer modifier was evaluated, and it was found that the best detection was achieved using a concentration of 1 mg/mL. Moreover, it was found that the laccase with the best biosensing efficiency was LacII, which achieved an LOD of 0.2 µM and a sensitivity of 0.108 µA/µM cm2 in the buffer matrix. Moreover, the performance of the bioelectrodes in a composite groundwater sample from Northeast Mexico was analyzed, achieving an LOD of 0.5 µM and a sensitivity of 0.015 µA/µM cm2. The LOD values found are among the lowest reported for biosensors based on the use of oxidoreductase enzymes, while the sensitivity is the highest currently reported.

Abstract
Reliable H2O2 sensors for in situ cellular monitoring under drug stimulation can be developed as a powerful and versatile tool for drug evaluation. Herein, a novel electrochemical biosensor capable of detecting and quantifying H2O2 was fabricated by graphene and shape-controlled gold nanostructures. With the help of polyelectrolytes, gold exhibited hierarchical flower-like nanostructures. This kind of nanozyme material exhibited a prominent electrochemical response for H2O2. Electrocatalytic activity for H2O2 reduction with high sensitivity (5.07◊10-4 mA μmol L-1 cm-2) and good detection capability (the lowest detection limit is 4.5 μmol L-1 (S/N = 3)) were achieved. This electrochemical biosensor was successfully used to measure the concentration of H2O2 released from HepG2 hepatoma cells. Ascorbic acid (AA) and Camellia nitidissima Chi saponins (CNCS) were selected as model drugs, and their anticancer activities were compared by in situ monitoring of H2O2. Interestingly, the electrochemical sensor showed remarkable sensitivity, accuracy, and rapidity compared with the traditional enzymatic detection kit. In brief, the as-synthesized nanostructured H2O2 sensors can be applied to assess the antitumor properties of candidate drugs and inspire developments for personalized health care monitoring and cancer treatment.

Abstract
Electrochemical biosensors are superior technologies that are used to detect or sense biologically and environmentally significant analytes in a laboratory environment, or even in the form of portable handheld or wearable electronics. Recently, imprinted and implantable biosensors are emerging as point-of-care devices, which monitor the target analytes in a continuous environment and alert the intended users to anomalies. The stability and performance of the developed biosensor depend on the nature and properties of the electrode material or the platform on which the biosensor is constructed. Therefore, the biosensor platform plays an integral role in the effectiveness of the developed biosensor. Enormous effort has been dedicated to the rational design of the electrode material and to fabrication strategies for improving the performance of developed biosensors. Every year, in the search for multifarious electrode materials, thousands of new biosensor platforms are reported. Moreover, in order to construct an effectual biosensor, the researcher should familiarize themself with the sensible strategies behind electrode fabrication. Thus, we intend to shed light on various strategies and methodologies utilized in the design and fabrication of electrochemical biosensors that facilitate sensitive and selective detection of significant analytes. Furthermore, this review highlights the advantages of various electrode materials and the correlation between immobilized biomolecules and modified surfaces.

Abstract
In this work, a stability study of dispersions of graphene oxide and graphene oxide functionalized with polyethylene glycol (PEG) in the presence of bovine serum albumin is carried out. First, a structural characterization of these nanomaterials is performed by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and ultraviolet visible spectroscopy, comparing the starting nanomaterials with the nanomaterials in contact with the biological material, i.e., bovine fetal serum. The different experiments were performed at different concentrations of nanomaterial (0.125-0.5 mg/mL) and BSA (0.01-0.04 mg/mL), at different incubation times (5-360 min), with and without PEG, and at different temperatures (25-40 °C). The SEM results show that BSA is adsorbed on the surface of the graphene oxide nanomaterial. Using UV-Vis spectrophotometry, the characteristic absorption peaks of BSA are observed at 210 and 280 nm, corroborating that the protein has been adsorbed. When the time increases, the BSA protein can be detached from the nanomaterial due to a desorption process. The stability of the dispersions is reached at a pH between 7 and 9. The dispersions behave like a Newtonian fluid with viscosity values between 1.1 and 1.5 mPa·s at a temperature range of 25 to 40 °C. The viscosity values decrease as the temperature increases.

An ultrasensitive electrochemical sensor for detecting porcine epidemic diarrhea virus based on a Prussian blue-reduced graphene oxide modified glassy carbon electrode. Anal Biochem 2023; 662:115013.

Abstract
This study developed a novel, ultrasensitive sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor for detecting the porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV). By electrochemical co-deposition of graphene and Prussian blue, a Prussian blue-reduced graphene oxide-modified glassy carbon electrode was made, further modified with PEDV-monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to create a new PEDV immunosensor using the double antibody sandwich technique. The electrochemical characteristics of several modified electrodes were investigated using cyclic voltammetry (CV). We optimized the pH levels and scan rate. Additionally, we examined specificity, reproducibility, repeatability, accuracy, and stability. The study indicates that the immunosensor has good performance in the concentration range of 1 × 101.88 to 1 × 105.38 TCID50/mL of PEDV, with a detection limit of 1 × 101.93 TCID50/mL at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3σ. The composite membranes produced via co-deposition of graphene and Prussian blue effectively increased electron transport to the glassy carbon electrode, boosted response signals, and increased the sensitivity, specificity, and stability of the immunosensor. The immunosensor could accurately detect PEDV, with results comparable to real-time quantitative PCR. This technique was applied to PEDV detection and served as a model for developing additional immunosensors for detecting hazardous chemicals and pathogenic microbes.

Abstract
Tungsten-based nanomaterials (TNMs) with diverse nanostructures and unique physicochemical properties have been widely applied in the biomedical field. Although various reviews have described the application of TNMs in specific biomedical fields, there are still no comprehensive studies that summarize and analyze research trends of the field as a whole. To identify and further promote the development of biomedical TNMs, a bibliometric analysis method is used to analyze all relevant literature on this topic. First, general bibliometric distributions of the dataset by year, country, institute, referenced source, and research hotspots are recognized. Next, a comprehensive review of the subjectively recognized research hotspots in various biomedical fields, including biological sensing, anticancer treatments, antibacterials, and toxicity evaluation, is provided. Finally, the prospects and challenges of TNMs are discussed to provide a new perspective for further promoting their development in biomedical research.

Abstract
Gene biomarkers of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in liquid biopsies have been explored for use in the precise diagnosis of tumors. There is a great clinical need to realize the ultrasensitive detection of gene biomarkers in ctDNA. Here we reported that an ultrasensitive label-free biosensor was developed for the detection of the gastric cancer-related PIK3CA gene of ctDNA in peripheral blood. The polymeric l-arginine and graphene oxide-wrapped gold nanostars (rGO-AuNSs) were prepared and deposited on the glass electrode. The capturing DNA probes for the PIK3CA gene were prepared and successfully immobilized on the rGO-AuNS-modified electrode surface via π-π interaction among the rGO-AuNS composites and DNA probes. The resultant electrochemical sensor was effectively applied to detect the PIK3CA gene of ctDNA via the hybridization between the capturing DNA probe and ctDNA, the result of which showed that the biosensor exhibited desirable sensitivity, stability, and a wider dynamic response in a ctDNA concentration range from 1.0 × 10-20 to 1.0 × 10-10 M (R2 = 0.997). Moreover, the low limit of detection of 1.0 × 10-20 M (S/N = 3) indicates the biosensor owns satisfactory detection sensitivity. Fourteen PIK3CA genes and two PIK3CA gene mutations were detected in 60 clinical ctDNA samples of gastric cancer patients by using the developed biosensor. In conclusion, this ultrasensitive label-free electrochemical biosensor possesses a significant application prospect in the detection of the PIK3CA gene in ctDNA and in early screening for gastric cancer in the near future.

Abstract
Incorporating new pollutants and environmental pollution has become a formidable issue as new pollutants are introduced into it and have become a significant concern in recent years. Detection of such pollutants needs a susceptible, selective, and cost-effective sensor that can sense their presence and quantify them at a trace level. In the present study, we have designed a 2D graphene oxide (GO)-based glassy carbon electrode (GCE) electrochemical sensor (GO/GCE) and utilized it as a sensing material for the detection and determination of CRZ. The voltammetric behavior of CRZ was studied using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV) techniques. The SWV was applied to quantify and analyze CRZ in actual samples. A better response of CRZ was noticed at GO/GCE when phosphate buffer solution of pH 4.2 was used as a supporting electrolyte for to experiment. The SWV technique achieved trace-level detection of CRZ. A linearity plot was obtained for the concentration range of 1.0 × 10-7 M to 2.5 × 10-4 M with a limit of detection of 1.38 × 10-8 M. The selectivity of the modified sensor was verified by the interference study of metal ions and other pesticides with CRZ. The agricultural and environmental significance of the developed method was successfully tested by estimating CRZ in water and soil samples.

Abstract
Conventional immunocolorimetric sensing of biomolecules continues to be challenged with low sensitivity although its wide application as a diagnostic tool in medicine and biotechnology. Herein, we present a multifunctional immunocolorimetric sensing system for sensitive and high-throughput detection of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) with carbon-gold nanocomposite (CGNs) amplification. Using a “green” strategy, monodisperse carbon nanospheres (CNs) were successfully synthesized by glucose carbonization. A simple and efficient hydrothermal method was developed to assemble abundant gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) onto the surfaces of CNs. The resulting CGNs were characterized and utilized for biomarker detection with superior properties of easy manufacturing, good biocompatibility, satisfactory chemical stability, and high loading capacity for biomolecules. As a proof of concept, the as-prepared CGNs were conjugated with horseradish peroxidase-labeled antibody against BNP (CGNs@AntiBNP-HRP) functioning as the carrier, signal amplifier, and detector for the sensitive detection of BNP. Under optimal conditions, the established CGNs@AntiBNP-HRP immunoprobe remarkably enhanced the detection performance of BNP, achieving signal amplification of more than 9 times compared to the conventional method. Based on our self-developed bionic electronic eye (e-Eye) and CGNs@AntiBNP-HRP immunoprobe, the multifunctional sensing system displayed a wide dynamic linear range of 3.9–500 ng/mL and a LOD of 0.640 ng/mL for BNP detection with high specificity, good accuracy and reproducibility. This portable sensing system with enhanced performance demonstrates great potential for BNP detection in point of care applications, and offers a universal and reliable platform for in vitro biomarker detection.

Abstract
Since the first commercial biosensor device for blood glucose measurement was introduced in the 1970s, many “biosensor types” have been developed, and this research area remains popular worldwide. In parallel with some global biosensor research reports published in the last decade, including a great deal of literature and industry statistics, it is predicted that biosensor design technologies, including handheld or wearable devices, will be preferred and highly valuable in many areas in the near future. Biosensors using nanoparticles still maintain their very important place in science and technology and are the subject of innovative research projects. Among the nanomaterials, carbon-based ones are considered to be one of the most valuable nanoparticles, especially in the field of electrochemical biosensors. In this context, graphene oxide, which has been used in recent years to increase the electrochemical analysis performance in biosensor designs, has been the subject of this review. In fact, graphene is already foreseen not only for biosensors but also as the nanomaterial of the future in many fields and is therefore drawing research attention. In this review, recent and prominent developments in biosensor technologies using graphene oxide (GO)-based nanomaterials in the field of cancer diagnosis are briefly summarized.

Abstract
The detection and quantitation of bisphenol A (BPA) in the environment and food products has been a subject of considerable interest. BPA, a diphenylmethane derivative is a well-known industrial raw material with wide range of applications. It is a well-known endocrine disruptor and acts as an estrogen mimic. BPA is an environmental health concern and its accumulation in hydro-geological cycles is a matter of serious ecological peril. This review basically assesses various chemically modified electrodes composed of diverse components that have been employed to recognize BPA in different matrices. Electrochemical sensors prepared using graphene materials in combination with metals and polymers for selective detection of BPA have been discussed extensively. The emphasis is on detection of BPA in various samples encountered in routine use such as plastic bottles, receipts, baby feed bottles, milk samples, mineralized water, tissue paper, DVDs, and others. Although research in this field is in the exploratory stage, deeper insights into fundamental studies of sensing systems, fast analysis of real samples and validation of sensors are some of the factors that need major impetus. It is expected that chemically modified electrode-based sensing systems will soon take over as a viable option for monitoring diverse pollutants.

Towards detection of biomarkers in the eye using an aptamer-based graphene affinity nanobiosensor. Talanta 2022; 250:123697.

Abstract
We present an approach to enable the sensitive and specific detection of biomarkers in undiluted tears in the eye using an aptamer-based graphene affinity nanosensor. The nanosensor is a graphene field-effect transistor, in which a nucleic acid aptamer and a biomolecule-permeable polyethylene glycol (PEG) nanolayer are immobilized on the graphene surface. The aptamer is capable of specifically recognize the target biomarker and induce a change in the carrier concentration of the graphene, which is measured to determine the biomarker concentration. The PEG nanolayer minimizes nonspecific adsorption of background molecules in the sample that would otherwise interfere with the biomarker detection. Experimental results show that tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), an inflammatory cytokine, can be sensitively and specifically detected in undiluted artificial tears with a limit of detection of 0.34 pM. This ability to detect and measure biomarkers in undiluted physiological fluids allows the nanosensor to be potentially used in applications where sample dilutions are not practical, such as wearable measurements of tear-borne biomarkers in the eye.

Abstract
Nanoengineering biosensors have become more precise and sophisticated, raising the demand for highly sensitive architectures to monitor target analytes at extremely low concentrations often required, for example, for biomedical applications. We review recent advances in functional nanomaterials, mainly based on novel organic-inorganic hybrids with enhanced electro-physicochemical properties toward fulfilling this need. In this context, this review classifies some recently engineered organic-inorganic metallic-, silicon-, carbonaceous-, and polymeric-nanomaterials and describes their structural properties and features when incorporated into biosensing systems. It further shows the latest advances in ultrasensitive electrochemical biosensors engineered from such innovative nanomaterials highlighting their advantages concerning the concomitant constituents acting alone, fulfilling the gap from other reviews in the literature. Finally, it mentioned the limitations and opportunities of hybrid nanomaterials from the point of view of current nanotechnology and future considerations for advancing their use in enhanced electrochemical platforms.

Abstract
We describe an electrochemical strategy to transduce allosteric transcription factor (aTF) binding affinity to sense steroid hormones. Our approach utilizes square wave voltammetry to monitor changes in current output as a progesterone (PRG)-specific aTF (SRTF1) unbinds from the cognate DNA sequence in the presence of PRG. The sensor detects PRG in artificial urine samples with sufficient sensitivity suitable for clinical applications. Our results highlight the capability of using aTFs as the biorecognition elements to develop electrochemical point-of-care biosensors for the detection of small-molecule biomarkers and analytes.

CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 292:133450. [PMID: 34979209 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2021.133450] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2021] [Revised: 11/25/2021] [Accepted: 12/24/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
The widespread use of methyl parathion (MP) and carbendazim (CBZ) as pesticide molecules for controlling pests and protect crops has added pollution issues; excess usage of these can lead to atmospheric pollution through contaminating water and soil sources. In the present study, detection of these compounds at the trace level was achieved by employing graphene oxide (GO) and graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) nanohybrid electrode assembly (GO/g-C3N4/GCE). The X-ray diffraction (XRD), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) techniques were also used to characterize the materials developed to reveal their purity, crystal structure, and morphology. The complete voltammetric behavior of these analytes was investigated using cyclic voltammetic (CV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV) techniques. The influence of pH was studied and it was noticed that electrochemical response was the highest at pH 7.0 for MP and at pH 4.2 for CBZ. Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations could help us to understand the adsorption behavior of MP and CBZ onto the GO and g-C3N4 before their degradation due to the electrochemical reactions. SWV technique was helpful in the trace level detection of MP and CBZ. Linearity plots were obtained in the range of concentration from 8.0 × 10-8 M to 1.0 × 10-4 M with a limit of detection 0.824 nM for MP and 1.0 × 10-8 M to 2.5 × 10-4 M for CBZ with the detection limit of 2.82 nM. Significance of the developed method in the field of agricultural and environmental domains was successfully investigated by monitoring MP and CBZ in water and soil samples, and the obtained results suggested the selectivity, stability, and reproducibility of the newly developed GO/g-C3N4/GCE electrode assembly.

Abstract
The environmental safety and threats of graphene-based materials (GBMs) to the agroecosystem have attracted increasing attention in recent years. However, the mechanisms underlying the effects of GBMs on plants remain unclear. Here, we investigated the phytotoxicity of reduced graphene oxide (RGO), graphene oxide (GO) and amine-functionalized graphene (G-NH2) on Brassica napus L. The results revealed that RGO impaired photosynthesis mainly by decreasing the chlorophyll content and Rubisco activity. A further gene-level analysis suggested that this effect of RGO might be due to its toxicity on sulfate transmembrane transporter and nitrogen metabolism, which ultimately led to nutrient imbalance. However, GO directly damaged the photosystem by disrupting the chloroplast structure, and a decrease in Rubisco activity indicated that GO also inhibits carbon fixation. Further gene-level analysis demonstrated that GO has toxicity on the chloroplast membrane, photosystem, photosynthethic electron transport and F-type ATPase. In addition, G-NH2 at 10-1000 mg L-1 showed no significant toxicity. These findings shed light on the potential mechanism for the toxicity of GBMs on plants for risk assessment.

Abstract
New electrocatalysts with high reduction efficiency are needed to upgrade the mediated electrochemical reduction for real applications. In addition, automation is required to quantify active electrocatalysts in alkaline media and air pollution. In this study, N2O was removed sustainably by electrogenerated low valent nickel(I) phthalocyanine tetrasulfonate [Ni(I)TSPc] in 1 M KOH using an electroscrubbing system. Ni(I)TSPc electro generation and N2O removal were automated by two (liquid/gas) electrochemical flow sensors, respectively. The Ni(I)TSPc was generated electrochemically up to 95% in 1 M KOH, and high removal efficiency (100%) was observed for 5 ppm N2O and 90% for 10 ppm N2O. A limiting potential change in the in-situ LSV of the chemically synthesized Ni(I)TSPc was taken and derived from the calibration plot and validated by an ex-situ potentiometric titration using an oxygen reduction potential electrode. Using the obtained calibration plot, electrogenerated Ni(I)TSPc allowed a direct determination in a liquid flow cell. The gas flow sensor developed using a KOH/Ni(II)CN4 (TCN (II))-fabricated silver solid amalgam electrode showed an excellent response to N2O concentrations up to 32 ppm. A calibration plot with known concentration was derived and validated by gas chromatography. The response time and sensitivity obtained were approximately 500s and -0.012 mA ppm-1 cm-2, respectively. The sensor stability test confirmed its good stability. Finally, the developed in-situ electrochemical flow sensors were applied to the sustainable automation of N2O pollutant removal.

Abstract
Convenient and sensitive detection of active analytes in complex matrix is crucial in biological, medical, and environmental analysis. Silica nanochannel array film (SNF) equipped electrochemical sensors have shown excellent anti-fouling performance in direct analysis of complex samples. In this work, we demonstrated an electrochemical sensor with anti-fouling performance for highly sensitive detection of acetaminophen (APAP) based on SNF supported by ß-cyclodextrin-graphene (CDG) nanocomposite modified Au film electrode (AuF). Because of their rich surface hydroxyls and 2D lamellar structure, CDG on AuF can serve as the nanoadhesive for compact binding SNF, which can be grown by electrochemical assisted self-assembly method in a few seconds. Attributable to the electrocatalytic property of graphene and the synergistic enrichment from both CD and SNF nanochannels towards analyte, the SNF/CDG/AuF sensor demonstrates sensitive detection of acetaminophen ranged from 0.2 to 50 μM with an ultralow limit-of-detection of 14 nM. Taking advantage of the anti-fouling ability of SNF, the sensor is able to realize accurate and convenient analysis of APAP in commercially available paracetamol tablets.

Abstract
It is significant to develop an efficient early detection and prediction method for ovarian cancer via a facile and low-cost approach. To address such issues, herein, we develop a novel circulating tumor cell (CTC) detection method to sensitively detect ovarian cancer by using a flexible graphene-based biosensor on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate. The results show that the graphene-based flexible biosensor demonstrates sensitive and rapid detection for ovarian cancer cells: it delivers obvious different responses for cell culture medium and cancer solution, different cancer cells and cancer cell solution with different concentrations; it demonstrates high sensitivity for detecting several tens of ovarian cancer cells per ml; moreover, the flexible graphene biosensor is very suitable for rapid and sensitive detection of ovarian cancer cells within 5 s. This work provides a low-cost and facile graphene biosensor fabrication strategy to sensitively and rapidly detect / identify CTC ovarian cancer cells.

Abstract
Dopamine is an important neurotransmitter involved in many human biological processes as well as in different neurodegenerative diseases. Monitoring the concentration of dopamine in biological fluids, i.e., blood and urine is an effective way of accelerating the early diagnosis of these types of diseases. Electrochemical sensors are an ideal choice for real-time screening of dopamine as they can achieve fast, portable inexpensive and accurate measurements. In this work, we present electrochemical dopamine sensors based on reduced graphene oxide coupled with Au or Pt nanoparticles. Sensors were developed by co-electrodeposition onto a flexible substrate, and a systematic investigation concerning the electrodeposition parameters (concentration of precursors, deposition time and potential) was carried out to maximize the sensitivity of the dopamine detection. Square wave voltammetry was used as an electrochemical technique that ensured a high sensitive detection in the nM range. The sensors were challenged against synthetic urine in order to simulate a real sample detection scenario where dopamine concentrations are usually lower than 600 nM. Our sensors show a negligible interference from uric and ascorbic acids which did not affect sensor performance. A wide linear range (0.1-20 μm for gold nanoparticles, 0.1-10 μm for platinum nanoparticles) with high sensitivity (6.02 and 7.19 μA μM-1 cm-2 for gold and platinum, respectively) and a low limit of detection (75 and 62 nM for Au and Pt, respectively) were achieved. Real urine samples were also assayed, where the concentrations of dopamine detected aligned very closely to measurements undertaken using conventional laboratory techniques. Sensor fabrication employed a cost-effective production process with the possibility of also being integrated into flexible substrates, thus allowing for the possible development of wearable sensing devices.
