Organic conjugated polymer nanoparticles enhanced tyrosinase electrochemical biosensor for selective, sensitive and rapid detection of bisphenol A. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 951:175765. [PMID: 39209166 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.175765] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2024] [Revised: 08/14/2024] [Accepted: 08/22/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
Bisphenol A (BPA) has been widely used in the production of polycarbonate (PC) plastics, flame retardants and epoxy resins, which is one of the most important endocrine disrupting chemicals and can cause damage to the estrogen system of human. In this work, organic conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNPs) were synthesized through nanoprecipitation method using liposome 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-[methoxy (polyethylene glycol)-2000] (DSPE-mPEG2000) coated poly[(4,4'-bis(2-ethylhexyl)-dithieno[3,2-b:2',3'-d]silole)-2,6-diyl-alt-4,7-di(4-hexyl-2-thienyl)-5,6-difluoro-2,1,3-benzothiadiazole] (PDTS-hDTBT) and poly[(4,4'-bis(2-ethylhexyl)-dithieno[3,2-b:2',3'-d]silole)-2,6-diyl-alt-4,7-di(4-(2-ethylhexyl)-2-thienyl)-5,6-difluoro-2,1,3-benzothiadiazole] (PDTS-ehDTBT). These two polymers have different side chains, which can affect the configuration of the polymers, thereby affecting the π-π interaction between BPA and CPNPs. The resultant two CPNPs were explored as extremely attractive matrix for tyrosinase immobilization to construct electrochemical biosensing platforms for sensitive and rapid detection of BPA in water environments. The electrochemical performance of these two biosensors was significantly enhanced, benefiting from the large specific surface area and excellent biocompatibility of CPNPs, as well as the strong π-π interaction between CPNPs and BPA. The current response of PDTS-ehDTBT-Tyr-Chi/GCE exhibited a good linear relationship with BPA concentration ranging from 0.02 to 3.0 μM with a low detection limit of 11.83 nM and a high sensitivity of 0.9724 μA μM-1 cm-2. The fabricated biosensor was further used for BPA detection in actual samples with a recovery rate of 92.0 %-99.4 %. With the remarkable advantages, CPNPs-based biosensor provides a highly sensitive detection tool for rapid detection of BPA in actual samples, which has broad application prospects.

Abstract
Nanohybrid based non-invasive biosensing platforms are emerging as promising alternatives to detect biomarkers in complex and diverse bio-fluids toward ultrasensitive point-of-care diagnostics. Herein, we report the development of a highly sensitive, facile, non-invasive, label free, affordable, and innovative electrochemical screen printed immunosensor for identifying CYFRA 21-1, an established and crucial biomarker for oral cancer. Until now, no work has been reported utilizing a titanium carbide Ti3C2 MXene nanosheet and L-cysteine (L-Cyst) functionalized magnetite nanoparticle (MNPs) nanohybrid based immunosensor for electrochemical detection of CYFRA 21-1. The L-Cyst@MNPs/Ti3C2-MXene nanohybrid was synthesized via the co-precipitation method and later deposited on a gold screen printed electrode (GSPE) offering enhanced surface area and electrochemical properties. The nanohybrid modified GSPE was then surface immobilized with monoclonal antibodies (anti-CYFRA-21-1) to fabricate an anti-CYFRA-21-1/L-Cyst@MNPs/Ti3C2-MXene/GSPE immunoelectrode and the non-specific locations of the immunoelectrode were covered with bovine serum albumin (BSA). The spectroscopic, morphological, and structural analyses of the synthesized nanohybrid and the fabricated electrodes were performed using different analytical techniques. The electrochemical studies of modified electrodes were evaluated using cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The fabricated BSA/anti-CYFRA-21-1/L-Cyst@MNPs/Ti3C2-MXene/GSPE immunosensor has shown an excellent limit of detection of 0.023 ng mL-1, a linear detection range of (0.5-30) ng mL-1, a sensitivity of 277.28 μA (ng mL-1)-1 cm-2 and a lower limit of quantification of 0.618 ng mL-1 for electrochemical CYFRA 21-1 determination. Hence, this L-Cyst@MNPs/Ti3C2-MXene nanohybrid could also be explored as a potential candidate for determining other cancer biomarkers.

Abstract
MXenes (Mn+1XnTx), a subgroup of 2-dimensional (2D) materials, specifically comprise transition metal carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides. They exhibit exceptional electrocatalytic and photocatalytic properties, making them well-suited for the detection and removal of pollutants from aqueous environments. Because of their high surface area and remarkable properties, they are being utilized in various applications, including catalysis, sensing, and adsorption, to combat pollution and mitigate its adverse effects. Different characterization techniques like XRD, SEM, TEM, UV-Visible spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy have been used for the structural elucidation of 2D MXene. Current responses against applied potential were measured during the electrochemical sensing of the hazardous pollutants in an aqueous system using a variety of electroanalytical techniques, including differential pulse voltammetry, amperometry, square wave anodic stripping voltammetry, etc. In this review, a comprehensive discussion on structural patterns, synthesis, properties of MXene and their application for electrochemical detection of lethal pollutants like hydroquionone, phenol, catechol, mercury and lead, etc. are presented. This review will be helpful to critically understand the methods of synthesis and application of MXenes for the removal of environmental pollutants.

Abstract
A Ti3C2TxMXene-based biosensor has been developed and the photocatalytic atom transfer radical polymerization (photo ATRP) amplification strategy applied to detect target miRNA-21 (tRNA). Initially, Ti3C2TxMXene nanosheets were synthesized from the Ti3AlC2 MAX precursor via selective aluminum etching. Then, functionalization of Ti3C2TxMXene nanosheets with 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTES) via silylation reactions to facilitate covalent bonding with hairpin DNA biomolecules specifically designed for tRNA detection. Upon binding with the tRNA, the hairpin DNA liberated the azide (N₃) group, initiating a click reaction to affix to the photo ATRP initiator. Through the ATRP photoreaction, facilitated by an organic photoredox catalyst and light, a significant amount of ferrocenyl methyl methacrylate (FMMA) monomer was immobilized on the electrode. Therefore, the electrochemical signal is amplified. The electrochemical efficacy of the biosensor was assessed using square wave voltammetry (SWV). Under optimized conditions, the biosensor demonstrated remarkable sensitivity in detecting tRNA, with a linear detection range from 0.01 fM to 10 pM and a detection limit of 2.81 aM. The findings elucidate that the developed biosensor, in conjunction with the photo ATRP strategy, offers reproducibility, stability, and increased sensitivity, underscoring its potential applications within the experimental medical sector of the biomolecular industry.

Abstract
Background The fabrication of titanium carbide (Ti3C2)-cobalt sulfide (Co3S4)-based biosensors with high sensitivity and selectivity can change the biosensor manufacturing industry completely. Molecular and clinical diagnostics, disease progression monitoring, and drug discovery could utilize these sensors for early biomarker detection. MXene (Ti3C2) is a two-dimensional material with exceptional electrical conductivity, hydrophilicity, great thermal stability, large interlayer spacing, and a high surface area. Ti3C2's remarkable characteristics make it well-suited for biomolecule immobilization and target analyte detection. Co3S4 is a transition metal chalcogenide that has shown great potential in biosensors. Co3S4 nanoparticles (NPs) can potentially enhance Ti3C2 electrocatalytic activity, particularly in amino acid detection. L-arginine is a semi-essential amino acid, and the body frequently uses it to support healthy circulation and plays a crucial role in protein synthesis. We fabricated the Ti3C2-Co3S4 biosensor for L-arginine detection. Aim This study aims to synthesize and apply Ti3C2-Co3S4 nanocomposites in amino acid biosensing. Materials and methods The Ti3C2 nanosheets were synthesized by the selective removal of an aluminum (Al) layer from the precursor (Ti3AlC2) using hydrofluoric acid (HF). The resulting mixture serves as an etchant, especially targeting the Al layers on Ti3AlC2 while protecting the desired MXene layers at room temperature. Cobalt nitrate hexahydrate was dissolved in deionized water. Sodium hydroxide was added to the cobalt solution and stirred. Thioacetamide was added to the above solution and stirred (Solution B). A mixture of Solution A and Solution B was stirred for 30 minutes. The mixture is transferred to a hydrothermal reactor and maintained at a temperature of 180°C for 12 hours. Once the reaction completes, we cool the resultant mixture to room temperature and then filter it using the washing technique. The sample underwent a 12-hour drying process at 80°C. Results This study investigated the use of a biosensor that employed Ti3C2-Co3S4 NPs to detect the concentration of L-arginine. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) shows clear and distinct peaks, which means that the synthesized Ti3C2-Co3S4 nanostructures have a crystalline structure. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis revealed that the sheetlike structure of synthesized Ti3C2-Co3S4 nanostructures revealed the crystalline morphology. The results of this study show that the Ti3C2-Co3S4 NP-based biosensor can be used to detect L-arginine in a sensitive and selective way. Conclusion This study investigated the synthesis of Ti3C2-Co3S4 NPs and their ability to detect L-arginine levels and show a distinct correlation between the L-arginine concentration and the fluorescence intensity, demonstrating the biosensor's effectiveness in detecting L-arginine levels.

Abstract
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs), also named hydrotalcite-like compounds, are anionic clays with a lamellar structure which have been extensively used in the last two decades as electrode modifiers for the design of electrochemical sensors. These materials can be classified into LDHs containing or not containing redox-active centers. In the former case, a transition metal cation undergoing a reversible redox reaction within a proper potential window is present in the layers, and, therefore, it can act as electron transfer mediator, and electrocatalyze the oxidation of an analyte for which the required overpotential is too high. In the latter case, a negatively charged species acting as a redox mediator can be introduced into the interlayer spaces after exchanging the anion coming from the synthesis, and, again, the material can display electrocatalytic properties. Alternatively, due to the large specific surface area of LDHs, molecules with electroactivity can be adsorbed on their surface. In this review, the most significant electroanalytical applications of LDHs as electrode modifiers for the development of voltammetric sensors are presented, grouping them based on the two types of materials.

Abstract
The enhanced cathodic ECL of Ru(bpy)32+ at a bimetallic element MXenes (TiVC MXene) modified electrode in neutral aqueous condition is reported. TiVC MXene significantly catalyzed the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) as well as the electrochemical reduction of Ru(bpy)32+ to produce reactive oxygen species and Ru(bpy)3+. The obtained hydroxyl radical (OH∙) not only oxidized Ru(bpy)3+ to generate Ru(bpy)32+* and emit light through coreactant pathway, but also oxidized Ru(bpy)32+ to Ru(bpy)33+, which caused an annihilation ECL reaction. As a result, two pathways occurred simultaneously to generate strong cathodic ECL signal. Sulfite removes the dissolved oxygen in water and reduces the occurrence of ORR, which prohibits the generation of OH∙ to decrease the ECL signal. The decrement of ECL intensity varied linearly with the concentration of sulfite in the range 2 nM to 50 μM with a detection limit of 0.14 nM (3σ). The proposed sensor exhibited good analytical performance, and could be used in the detection of sulfite in real samples. The results revealed that the electrocatalytic behavior of TiVC MXene is the key factor for strong cathodic Ru(bpy)32+ ECL, which provides new application in ECL sensing field.

Abstract
Transition metal carbides and nitrides (MXenes) are crystal nanomaterials with a number of surface functional groups such as fluorine, hydroxyl, and oxygen, which can be used as carriers for proteins and drugs. MXenes have excellent biocompatibility, electrical conductivity, surface hydrophilicity, mechanical properties and easy surface modification. However, at present, the stability of most MXenes needs to be improved, and more synthesis methods need to be explored. MXenes are good substrates for nerve cell regeneration and nerve reconstruction, which have broad application prospects in the repair of nervous system injury. Regarding the application of MXenes in neuroscience, mainly at the cellular level, the long-term in vivo biosafety and effects also need to be further explored. This review focuses on the progress of using MXenes in nerve regeneration over the last few years; discussing preparation of MXenes and their biocompatibility with different cells as well as the regulation by MXenes of nerve cell regeneration in two-dimensional and three-dimensional environments in vitro. MXenes have great potential in regulating the proliferation, differentiation, and maturation of nerve cells and in promoting regeneration and recovery after nerve injury. In addition, this review also presents the main challenges during optimization processes, such as the preparation of stable MXenes and long-term in vivo biosafety, and further discusses future directions in neural tissue engineering.

Abstract
The critical performance factors such as selectivity, sensitivity, operational and storage stability, and response time of electrochemical biosensors are governed mainly by the function of their key component, the bioelectrode. Suitable design and fabrication strategies of the bioelectrode interface are essential for realizing the requisite performance of the biosensors for their practical utility. A multifaceted attempt to achieve this goal is visible from the vast literature exploring effective strategies for preparing, immobilizing, and stabilizing biorecognition elements on the electrode surface and efficient transduction of biochemical signals into electrical ones (i.e., current, voltage, and impedance) through the bioelectrode interface with the aid of advanced materials and techniques. The commercial success of biosensors in modern society is also increasingly influenced by their size (and hence portability), multiplexing capability, and coupling in the interface of the wireless communication technology, which facilitates quick data transfer and linked decision-making processes in real-time in different areas such as healthcare, agriculture, food, and environmental applications. Therefore, fabrication of the bioelectrode involves careful selection and control of several parameters, including biorecognition elements, electrode materials, shape and size of the electrode, detection principles, and various fabrication strategies, including microscale and printing technologies. This review discusses recent trends in bioelectrode designs and fabrications for developing electrochemical biosensors. The discussions have been delineated into the types of biorecognition elements and their immobilization strategies, signal transduction approaches, commonly used advanced materials for electrode fabrication and techniques for fabricating the bioelectrodes, and device integration with modern electronic communication technology for developing electrochemical biosensors of commercial interest.

Abstract
As an important emerging pollutant, antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) monitoring is crucial to protect the ecological environment and public health, but its rapid and accurate detection is still a major challenge. In this study, a new single-labeled dual-signal output ratiometric electrochemical genosensor (E-DNA) was developed for the rapid and highly sensitive detection of ARGs using a synergistic signal amplification strategy of T3C2@Au nanoparticles (T3C2@AuNPs) and isothermal strand displacement polymerase reaction (ISDPR). Specially, two-dimensional monolayer T3C2 nanosheets loaded with uniformly gold nanoparticles were prepared and used as the sensing platform of the E-DNA sensor. Benefiting from excellent conductivity and large specific surface area of Ti3C2@AuNPs, the probe immobilization capacity of the E-DNA sensor is doubled, and electrochemical response signals of the E-DNA sensor were significantly improved. The proposed single-labeled dual-signal output ratiometric sensing strategy exhibits three to six times higher sensitivity for the sul2 gene than the single-signal sensing strategy, which significantly reduces cost meanwhile retaining the advantages of high sensitivity and reliability offered by conventional dual-labeled ratiometric sensors. Coupled with ISDPR amplification technology, the E-DNA sensor has a wider linear range from 10 fM to 10 nM and a limit of detection as low as 2.04 fM (S/N=3). More importantly, the E-DNA sensor demonstrates excellent specificity, good stability and reproducibility for target ARGs detection in real water samples. The proposed new sensing strategy provides a highly sensitive and versatile tool for the rapid and accurate quantitative analysis of various ARGs in environmental water samples.

Abstract
Environmental pollution has intensified and accelerated due to a steady increase in the number of industries, and exploring methods to remove hazardous contaminants, which can be typically divided into inorganic and organic compounds, have become inevitable. Therefore, the development of efficacious technology for the separation processes is of paramount importance to ensure the environmental remediation. Membrane and adsorption technologies garnered attention, especially with the use of novel and high performing nanomaterials, which provide a target-specific solution. Specifically, widespread use of MXene nanomaterials in membrane and adsorption technologies has emerged due to their intriguing characteristics, combined with outstanding separation performance. In this review, we demonstrated the intrinsic properties of the MXene family for several separation applications, namely, gas separation, solvent dehydration, dye removal, separation of oil-in-water emulsions, heavy metal ion removal, removal of radionuclides, desalination, and other prominent separation applications. We highlighted the recent advancements used to tune separation potential of the MXene family such as the manipulation of surface chemistry, delamination or intercalation methods, and fabrication of composite or nanocomposite materials. Moreover, we focused on the aspects of stability, fouling, regenerability, and swelling, which deserve special attention when the MXene family is implemented in membrane and adsorption-based separation applications.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials have significantly contributed to recent advances in material sciences and nanotechnology, owing to their layered structure. Despite their potential as multifunctional theranostic agents, the biomedical translation of these materials is limited due to a lack of knowledge and control over their interaction with complex biological systems. In a biological microenvironment, the high surface energy of nanomaterials leads to diverse interactions with biological moieties such as proteins, which play a crucial role in unique physiological processes. These interactions can alter the size, surface charge, shape, and interfacial composition of the nanomaterial, ultimately affecting its biological activity and identity. This review critically discusses the possible interactions between proteins and 2D nanomaterials, along with a wide spectrum of analytical techniques that can be used to study and characterize such interplay. A better understanding of these interactions would help circumvent potential risks and provide guidance toward the safer design of 2D nanomaterials as a platform technology for various biomedical applications.

Abstract
Metformin (MET) is the primary medicine for type II diabetes, which produces carcinogenic byproducts during chlorine disinfection, so the detection of MET in aqueous environment is crucial. In this work, an electrochemical sensor based on nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (NCNT) has been constructed for ultrasensitive determination of MET in the presence of Cu(II) ions. The excellent conductivity and rich π-conjugated structure of NCNT facilitate the electron transfer rate of fabricated sensor and benefit the adsorption of cation ions. Cu(II) ions can chelate with MET to form MET-Cu(II) complex, which are easily accumulated on the surface of NCNT through cation-π interaction. Attributing to the synergistic enhancement effects of NCNT and Cu(II) ions, the fabricated sensor exhibits excellent analytical performances with a low detection limit of 9.6 nmol L-1, high sensitivity of 64.97 A mol-1 cm-2 and wide linear range of 0.3-10 μmol L-1. The sensing system has been successfully applied for rapid (20 s) and selective determination of MET in real water samples with satisfactory recoveries (90.2 %-108.8 %). This study provides a robust strategy for MET detection in aqueous environment and holds great promise for rapid risk assessment and early warning of MET.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Two-dimensional ultrathin Ti3C2 nanosheets are increasingly being used in biomedical applications owing to their special physicochemical properties. But, the biological effects of its exposure on the reproductive system is still unclear. This study evaluated the reproductive toxicity of Ti3C2 nanosheets in the testes. RESULTS Ti3C2 nanosheets at doses of 2.5 mg/kg bw and 5 mg/kg bw in mice caused defects in spermatogenic function, and we also clarified an underlying molecular mechanism of it in vivo and in vitro model. Ti3C2 nanosheets induced an increase of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in testicular and GC-1 cells, which in turn led to the imbalance in oxidative and antioxidant systems (also known as oxidative stress). Additionally, oxidative stress often induces cellular DNA strand damages via the oxidative DNA damages, which triggered cell cycle arrest in the G1/G0 phase, leading to cell proliferation inhibition and irreversible apoptosis. ATM/p53 signaling manifest key role in DNA damage repair (DDR), and we demonstrate that ATM/p53 signaling was activated, and mediated the toxic damage process caused by Ti3C2 nanosheet exposure. CONCLUSION Ti3C2 nanosheet-induced disruption of proliferation and apoptosis of spermatogonia perturbed normal spermatogenic function that was mediated by ATM/p53 signaling pathway. Our findings shed more light on the mechanisms of male reproductive toxicity induced by Ti3C2 nanosheets.

Bioelectrochemistry 2023; 151:108378. [PMID: 36774719 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2023.108378] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2022] [Revised: 01/19/2023] [Accepted: 01/20/2023] [Indexed: 01/26/2023]
Abstract
Cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs) catalyze the production of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) metabolites, which play an important role in carcinogenesis. In this study, we report a simple electrochemical liver-microsome-based biosensor using a composite of gold nanoparticles adsorbed on MXene (Au@MXene) for rapid screening of AFB1. Rat liver microsomes (RLMs) were directly adsorbed on the Au@MXene nanocomposite. The high conductivity, large specific surface area, and good biocompatibility of the Au@MXene nanocomposite enabled the direct electron transfer between the RLMs and the electrode and maintained the biological activity of the enzyme in the RLMs to a large extent. The metabolic behavior of the RLM biosensor that was developed for the electrocatalyst of AFB1 to its hydroxylation metabolite aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) was confirmed. Based on the change in the electrical signal generated by this metabolic behavior, we established the relationship between AFB1 content and amperometric (I-t) current signal. When the AFB1 concentration ranged from 0.01 μM to 50 μM, the AFB1 concentration was linearly related to the electrical signal with a limit of detection of 2.8 nM. The results of the recovery experiments for corn samples showed that the recovery and accuracy of the sensor were consistent with the UPLC-MS/MS method.

Abstract
The monitoring of hazardous pollutants in environmental fluids is one of main stretaegy in investigation of water and soil quality. Metal ions are one of main and dangerius materials in water sampels and one of the main causes of environmental problems. Therefore, many of environmental researchers focused on fabrication of highly sensitive sensor to ion hazardous pollutants environmental fluids. The encapsulation of 2D MXenes with other stable materials has proven to be an effective method for enhancing their stability and electrochemical properties. In this work, a sandwich-like nanocomposite structure, AuNPs/PPy/Ti3C2Tx, was designed and synthesized via a facile method of one-step layer-by-layer self-assembly. The morphology and structure of the prepared nanocomposites are characterized with various methods such as scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Ti3C2Tx as a substrate played a significant role in the synthesis and alignment of PPy and AuNPs growth. The nanocomposites have maximized the benefits of the inorganic AuNPs and organic PPy materials, enhancing their stability and electrochemical performance. Meanwhile, AuNPs have given the nanocomposite the ability to form covalent bonds with biomaterials via the Au-S bond. Thus, a novel electrochemical aptasensor was developed based on AuNPs/PPy/Ti3C2Tx for the sensitive and selective detection of Pb2+. It demonstrated a wide linear range from 5 × 10-14 to 1 × 10-8 M with a low LOD of 1 × 10-14 M (S/N = 3). Additionally, the developed aptasensor exhibited excellent selectivity and stability and successfully used to sensing of Pb2+ in environmental fluids such as NongFu Spring and tap water.

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
Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials have been widely used in biomedical applications because of their biocompatibility. Considering the high risk of exposure of the circulatory system to Ti3C2Tx, we studied the cytocompatibility of Ti3C2Tx MXene with red blood cells (RBCs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and showed that Ti3C2Tx had excellent compatibility with the two cell lines. Ti3C2Tx at a concentration as high as 200 μg/mL caused a negligible percent hemolysis of 0.8%. By contrast, at the same treatment concentration, graphene oxide (GO) caused a high percent hemolysis of 50.8%. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that RBC structures remained intact in the Ti3C2Tx treatment group, whereas those in the GO group completely deformed, sunk, and shrunk, which resulted in the release of cell contents. This difference can be largely ascribed to the distinct surficial properties of the two nanosheets. In specific, the fully covered surface-terminating -O and -OH groups leading to Ti3C2Tx had a very hydrophilic surface, thereby hindering its penetration into the highly hydrophobic interior of the cell membrane. However, the strong direct van der Waals attractions coordinated with hydrophobic interactions between the unoxidized regions of GO and the lipid hydrophobic tails can still damage the integrity of the cell membranes. In addition, the sharp and keen-edged corners of GO may also facilitate its relatively strong cell membrane damage effects than Ti3C2Tx. Thus, the excellent cell membrane compatibility of Ti3C2Tx nanosheets and their ultraweak capacity to provoke excessive ROS generation endowed them with much better compatibility with HUVECs than GO nanosheets. These results indicate that Ti3C2Tx has much better cytocompatibility than GO and provide a valuable reference for the future biomedical applications of Ti3C2Tx.

Abstract
Screen-printing technology is a game changer in many fields including electrochemical biosensing. Two-dimensional nanomaterial MXene Ti3C2Tx was integrated as a nanoplatform to immobilise enzyme sarcosine oxidase (SOx) onto the interface of screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs). A miniaturised, portable, and cost-effective nanobiosensor was constructed using chitosan as a biocompatible glue for the ultrasensitive detection of prostate cancer biomarker sarcosine. The fabricated device was characterised with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). Sarcosine was detected indirectly via the amperometric detection of H2O2 formed during enzymatic reaction. The nanobiosensor could detect sarcosine down to 7.0 nM with a maximal peak current output at 4.10 ± 0.35 × 10−5 A using only 100 µL of a sample per measurement. The assay run in 100 μL of an electrolyte showed the first linear calibration curve in a concentration window of up to 5 μM with a slope of 2.86 μA·μM−1, and the second linear calibration curve in the range of 5–50 μM with a slope of 0.32 ± 0.01 μA·μM−1 (R2 = 0.992). The device provided a high recovery index of 92.5% when measuring an analyte spiked into artificial urine, and could be used for detection of sarcosine in urine for at least a period of 5 weeks after the preparation.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials with chemical and structural diversity have piqued the interest of the scientific community due to their superior photonic, mechanical, electrical, magnetic, and catalytic capabilities that distinguish them from their bulk counterparts. Among these 2D materials, two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides, carbonitrides, and nitrides with a general chemical formula of Mn+1XnTx (where n = 1-3), together known as MXenes, have gained tremendous popularity and demonstrated competitive performance in biosensing applications. In this review, we focus on the cutting-edge advances in MXene-related biomaterials, with a systematic summary on their design, synthesis, surface engineering approaches, unique properties, and biological properties. We particularly emphasize the property-activity-effect relationship of MXenes at the nano-bio interface. We also discuss the recent trends in the application of MXenes in accelerating the performance of conventional point of care (POC) devices towards more practical approaches as the next generation of POC tools. Finally, we explore in depth the existing problems, challenges, and potential for future improvement of MXene-based materials for POC testing, with the goal of facilitating their early realization of biological applications.

In this review, we first discuss the rapid evolutionary change in MXenes from the first reported M2XTx structure to the last reported M5X4Tx structure. The use of systematically modified synthesis routes, such as foreign atom intercalation, tuning precursor chemistry, etc., will be further discussed in the next section. Then, we review the applications of MXenes and their composites/hybrids for rapidly growing applications such as batteries, supercapacitors, electrocatalysts, sensors, biomedical, electromagnetic interference shielding, membranes, and flexible and wearable devices. More importantly, we notice that its excellent metallic conductivity with its hydrophilic nature distinguishes MXene from other materials, and its properties and applications can be further modified by surface functionalization. MXene composites/hybrids outperform pristine MXenes in many applications. In addition, a summary of the latest findings using MXene-based materials to overcome application-specific drawbacks is provided in the last few sections. We hope that the information provided in this review will help integrate lab-scale findings into commercially viable products.

Abstract
It is very challenging to employ solution-processed conducting films in large-area ultrathin nanoelectronics. Here, spray-coated Ti3 C2 Tx MXene films as metal contacts are successfully integrated into sub-10 nm gate oxide 2D MoS2 transistor circuits. Ti3 C2 Tx films are spray coated on glass substrates followed by vacuum annealing. Compared to the as-prepared sample, vacuum annealed films exhibit a higher conductivity (≈11 000 S cm-1 ) and a lower work function (≈4.5 eV). Besides, the annealed Ti3 C2 Tx film can be patterned through a standard cleanroom process without peeling off. The annealed Ti3 C2 Tx film shows a better band alignment for n-type transport in MoS2 channel with small work function mismatch of 0.06 eV. The MoS2 film can be uniformly transferred on the patterned Ti3 C2 Tx surface and then readily processed through the cleanroom process. A large-area array of Ti3 C2 Tx MXene-MoS2 transistors is fabricated using different dielectric thicknesses and semiconducting channel sizes. High yield and stable performance for these transistor arrays even with an 8 nm-thick dielectric layer are demonstrated. Besides, several circuits are demonstrated, including rectifiers, negative-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor (NMOS) inverters, and voltage-shift NMOS inverters. Overall, this work indicates the tremendous potential for solution-processed Ti3 C2 Tx MXene films in large-area 2D nanoelectronics.

Abstract
Use of MXenes (Ti3 C2 Tx ), which belongs to the family of two-dimensional transition metal nitrides and carbides by encompassing unique combination of metallic conductivity and hydrophilicity, is receiving tremendous attention, since its discovery as energy material in 2011. Owing to its precursor selective chemical etching, and unique intrinsic characteristics, the MXene surface properties are further classified into highly chemically active compound, which further produced different surface functional groups i. e., oxygen, fluorine or hydroxyl groups. However, the role of surface functional groups doesn't not only have a significant impact onto its electrochemical and hydrophilic characteristics (i. e., ion adsorption/diffusion), but also imparting a noteworthy effect onto its conductivity, work function, electronic structure and properties. Henceforth, such kind of inherent chemical nature, robust electrochemistry and high hydrophilicity ultimately increasing the MXene application as a most propitious material for overall environment-remediation, electrocatalytic sensors, energy conversion and storage application. Moreover, it is well documented that the role of MXenes in all kinds of research fields is still on a progress stage for their further improvement, which is not sufficiently summarized in literature till now. The present review article is intended to critically discuss the different chemical aptitudes and the diversity of MXenes and its derivates (i. e., hybrid composites) in all aforesaid application with special emphasis onto the improvement of its surface characteristics for the multidimensional application. However, this review article is anticipated to endorse MXenes and its derivates hybrid configuration, which is discussed in detail for emerging environmental decontamination, electrochemical use, and pollutant detection via electrocatalytic sensors, photocatalysis, along with membrane distillation and the adsorption application. Finally, it is expected, that this review article will open up new window for the effective use of MXene in a broad range of environmental remediation, energy conversion and storage application as a novel, robust, multidimensional and more proficient materials.

Abstract
Soil and water contamination by numerous pollutants has been increasingly posing threats to food, water, agriculture, and human health. Using novel nanoscale materials to develop rapid electrochemical sensors is very promising due to the discovery of a number of new two-dimensional (2D) electronic materials. Of particular importance is 2D transition-metal carbide MXene that has been shown to possess transformative properties pertaining to its physical, chemical, and environmental characteristics, leading to their potential sensor applications. Designing electrochemical sensors using MXene has the potential to pave the way for monitoring environmental pollutants. Here, a stacked layer of chemically exfoliated MXene (Ti3C2T x ) was demonstrated as an electrochemical sensor for detection of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) with high sensitivity and a low limit of detection. Successful selective exfoliation of the MAX (Ti3AlC2) phase of the material by chemical etching without oxidation is shown to be the key to achieving higher sensitivity and a lower detection limit. In the optimal conditions, the proposed MXene sensor electrodes were capable of detecting 4-NP in a broad concentration range from 500 nM to 100 μM with a good linear sensing range (regression fit, R = 0.995). The higher sensitivity and notable limit of detection reached about 16.35 μA μM-1 cm-2 and 42 nM/L, respectively, with good reproducibility and repeatability. The real-time application of the proposed MXene sensor electrodes was confirmed by testing in tap water samples with excellent recoveries of 95-99%.

Abstract
Cochlear implantation has become the most effective treatment method for patients with profound and total hearing loss. However, its therapeutic efficacy is dependent on the number and normal physiological function of cochlear implant-targeted spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs). Electrical stimulation can be used as an effective cue to regulate the morphology and function of excitatory cells. Therefore, it is important to develop an efficient cochlear implant electroacoustic stimulation (EAS) system to study the behavior of SGNs. In this work, we present an electrical stimulation system constructed by combining a cochlear implant and a conductive Ti3C2Tx MXene-matrigel hydrogel. SGNs were cultured in the Ti3C2Tx MXene-matrigel hydrogel and exposed to electrical stimulation transduced by the cochlear implant. It was demonstrated that low-frequency stimulation promoted the growth cone development and neurite outgrowth of SGNs as well as signal transmission between cells. This work may have potential value for the clinical application of the Ti3C2Tx MXene hydrogel to optimize the postoperative listening effect of cochlear implantation and benefit people with sensorineural hearing loss.

[PMID: 36293426 PMCID: PMC9604468 DOI: 10.3390/ijms232012569] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2022] [Revised: 10/10/2022] [Accepted: 10/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/05/2022] Open
Abstract
Oleuropein (OLEU) is an important indicator of the quality and authenticity of extra virgin olive oils (EVOO). Electrochemical sensors and biosensors for the detection of oleuropein can be used to test the adulteration of extra virgin olive oils. The present study aimed at the qualitative and quantitative determination of oleuropein in commercial EVOO samples by applying electrochemical techniques, cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV). The sensing devices used were two newly constructed enzyme biosensors, supported on single-layer carbon-nanotube-modified carbon screen-printed electrode (SPE/SWCNT) on whose surface tyrosinase (SPE/SWCNT/Tyr) and laccase (SPE/SWCNT/Lac) were immobilized, respectively. The active surfaces of the two biosensors were analyzed and characterized by different methods, cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and the results confirmed the efficient immobilization of the enzymes. SPE/SWCNT/Tyr was characterized by a low detection limit (LOD = 9.53 × 10−8 M) and a very good sensitivity (0.0718 μA·μM−1·cm−2) over a wide linearity range from 0.49 to 11.22 μM. The process occurring at the biosensor surface corresponds to kinetics (h = 0.90), and tyrosinase showed a high affinity towards OLEU. The tyrosinase-based biosensor was shown to have superior sensitive properties to the laccase-based one. Quantitative determination of OLEU in EVOOs was performed using SPE/SWCNT/Tyr and the results confirmed the presence of the compound in close amounts in the EVOOs analysed, proving that they have very good sensory properties.

Abstract
Over the last few decades, biosensors have made significant advances in detecting non-invasive biomarkers of disease-related body fluid substances with high sensitivity, high accuracy, low cost and ease in operation. Among various two-dimensional (2D) materials, MXenes have attracted widespread interest due to their unique surface properties, as well as mechanical, optical, electrical and biocompatible properties, and have been applied in various fields, particularly in the preparation of biosensors, which play a critical role. Here, we systematically introduce the application of MXenes in electrochemical, optical and other bioanalytical methods in recent years. Finally, we summarise and discuss problems in the field of biosensing and possible future directions of MXenes.

A Novel Electrochemical Sensing Strategy Based on Poly (3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene): Polystyrene Sulfonate, AuNPs, and Ag + for Highly Sensitive Detection of Alkaline Phosphatase. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 12:3392. [PMID: 36234519 PMCID: PMC9565475 DOI: 10.3390/nano12193392] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2022] [Revised: 09/26/2022] [Accepted: 09/26/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is a crucial marker for the clinical analysis and detection of many diseases. In this study, an accurate signal amplification strategy was proposed for the sensing and quantification of alkaline phosphatase using poly (3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene):polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS), gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), and Ag+. Signal amplification was achieved by the modification of PEDOT:PSS and AuNPs on glassy carbon electrodes. Atomic force microscopy was performed to characterize the morphology of the modified nanomaterials. To detect ALP, 1-naphthyl phosphate (1-NP) was used as the substrate, and alkaline phosphatase catalyzed 1-NP into 1-naphthol (1-N), which resulted in the reduction of Ag+ to Ag0 on the surface of the modified electrode (AuNPs/PEDOT:PSS/GCE). The deposition of Ag drastically enhanced the detection signal. Differential pulse voltammograms of 1-N, which is the enzymatic product from the ALP reaction with 1-NP, were recorded. In the linear range of 0.1-120 U L-1, a quantitative analysis of alkaline phosphatase was achieved, with high sensitivity and a low detection limit of 0.03 U L-1. Stable, selective, and reproducible electrochemical sensors were designed. Moreover, the proposed electrochemical sensor exhibited a prominent sensing performance in the spiked diluted human serum. Thus, the sensor can be used in numerous applications in alkaline phosphatase or other analyte detection.

Abstract
Exosome is considered an important biomarker of liquid biopsy in early cancer screening, which can reflect the physiological and pathological status of cancer cells. Herein, we construct a novel electrochemical biosensor based on hierarchical Au nanoarray-modified 2D Ti2CTx MXene membranes for sensitive detection of exosomes. Ti2CTx MXene nanosheets were fabricated as the building blocks for preparing 2D membranes as the sensing platform via vacuum filtration. To enhance the conductivity of the MXene membrane, for the first time, hierarchical Au nanoarrays were further deposited in situ on the MXene membrane surface. The combination of MXene membrane with a large specific area and hierarchical Au nanoarrays with excellent conductivity make higher electrocatalytic and more active sites in aptamer immobilization. In this strategy, the composite membrane modified by EpCAM recognized aptamer can specifically capture target exosomes, meanwhile, these target exosomes anchor aptamer for CD63 to further enhance the sensing sensitivity and accuracy of the biosensor. As a result, the biosensor achieved high sensitivity and reliable performance for exosome sensing, with a low detection limit (58 particles/μL) in the linear range of 1 × 102 to 1 × 107 particles/μL. In addition, this biosensor showed satisfactory electrochemical stability and anti-interference ability for the detection of exosomes in real serum samples.

Abstract
The last decade witnessed the emergence of a new family of 2D transition metal carbides and nitrides named MXenes, which quickly gained momentum due to their exceptional electrical, mechanical, optical, and tunable functionalities. These outstanding properties also rendered them attractive materials for biomedical and biosensing applications, including drug delivery systems, antimicrobial applications, tissue engineering, sensor probes, auxiliary agents for photothermal therapy and hyperthermia applications, etc. The hydrophilic nature of MXenes with rich surface functional groups is advantageous for biomedical applications over hydrophobic nanoparticles that may require complicated surface modifications. As an emerging 2D material with numerous phases and endless possible combinations with other 2D materials, 1D materials, nanoparticles, macromolecules, polymers, etc., MXenes opened a vast terra incognita for diverse biomedical applications. Recently, MXene research picked up the pace and resulted in a flood of literature reports with significant advancements in the biomedical field. In this context, this review will discuss the recent advancements, design principles, and working mechanisms of some interesting MXene-based biomedical applications. It also includes major progress, as well as key challenges of various types of MXenes and functional MXenes in conjugation with drug molecules, metallic nanoparticles, polymeric substrates, and other macromolecules.

Abstract
The reality that the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is still raging around the world and making a comeback with a strong presence has highlighted the need for rapid and sensitive quantitative detection methods of viral RNA, antibody and antigen for widespread tracking and screening applications. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) detection technology has achieved rapid development and become a standard measurement method in the fields of biosensing, biomedicine, biochemistry and biopharmaceuticals due to its advantages of high sensitivity, fast response and no need for labelling. Here, we report a sandwiched structure-based SPR biosensor for detecting a specific viral antigen, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike S1 protein. The sensor combines a Ti3C2-MXene nanosheet modified sensing platform and polydopamine (PDA)-Ag nanoparticle (AgNP)/anti-SARS-CoV-2 spike S1 protein nanoconjugate signal enhancers, exhibiting a wide linear range of 0.0001 to 1000 ng mL-1 with a low detection limit of 12 fg mL-1 (S/N = 3). In the analysis of artificial saliva and human serum samples, the proposed SPR biosensor exhibits good reproducibility and high specificity, which indicates its potential for application in complex bodily fluids. The exploitation of the MXene-based SPR biochip for recognizing the SARS-CoV-2 antigen provides an accessible and rapid way for COVID-19 diagnosis, and promotes the application of 2D nanomaterial-based sensing chips in clinical diagnosis and disease screening. Significantly, the proposed method possesses general applicability that can be reprogrammed to detect any protein antigen if a corresponding specific nanobody is available.

Abstract
MXenes are a family of two-dimensional (2D) composite materials based on transition metal carbides, nitrides and carbonitrides that have been attracting attention since 2011. Combination of electrical and mechanical properties with hydrophilicity makes them promising materials for biomedical applications. This review briefly discusses methods for the synthesis of MXenes, their potential applications in medicine, ranging from sensors and antibacterial agents to targeted drug delivery, cancer photo/chemotherapy, tissue engineering, bioimaging, and environmental applications such as sensors and adsorbents. We focus on in vitro and in vivo toxicity and possible mechanisms. We discuss the toxicity analogies of MXenes and other 2D materials such as graphene, mentioning the greater biocompatibility of MXenes. We identify existing barriers that hinder the formation of objective knowledge about the toxicity of MXenes. The most important of these barriers are the differences in the methods of synthesis of MXenes, their composition and structure, including the level of oxidation, the number of layers and flake size; functionalization, test concentrations, duration of exposure, and individual characteristics of biological test objects Finally, we discuss key areas for further research that need to involve new methods of nanotoxicology, including predictive computational methods. Such studies will bring closer the prospect of widespread industrial production and safe use of MXene-based products.
