Abstract
Tryptophan(Trp) is being explored as a potential biomarker for various diseases associated with decreased tryptophan levels; however, metabolomic methods are expensive and time-consuming and require extensive sample analysis, making them urgently needed for trace detection. To exploit the properties of Ti3C2 MXenes a rational porous methyl orange (MO)-delaminated Ti3C2 MXene was prepared via a facile mixing process for the electrocatalytic oxidation of Trp. The hollow-like 3D structure with a more open structure and the synergistic effect of MO and conductive Ti3C2 MXene enhanced its electrochemical catalytic capability toward Trp biosensing. More importantly, MO can stabilize Ti3C2 MXene nanosheets through noncovalent π-π interactions and hydrogen bonding. Compared with covalent attachment, these non-covalent interactions preserve the electronic conductivity of the Ti3C2 MXene nanosheets. Finally, the addition of MO-derived nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) atoms to Ti3C2 MXene enhanced the electronegativity and improved its affinity for specific molecules, resulting in high-performance electrocatalytic activity. The proposed biosensor exhibited a wide linear response in concentration ranges of 0.01-0.3 µM and 0.5-120 µM, with a low detection limit of 15 nM for tryptophan detection, and high anti-interference ability in complex media of human urine and egg white matrices. The exceptional abilities of the MO/Ti3C2 nanocatalyst make it a promising electrode material for the detection of important biomolecules.

Abstract
The adhesion of bacteria to the surface leads to formation of biofilms causing numerous infection problems in implanting medical devices or interventional therapy. Traditional treatment for such problems is generally to administrate patients with antibiotics or antifungal agent. Alternatively, devices are taken out of the body to mechanically destroy the biofilm and re-used by surgery. In this study, a straightforward method was developed to remove biofilms using a MXene-based photothermal hydrogel. The hydrogel consists of dynamic crosslinking network formed by Schiff-base reaction between aldehyde-containing xyloglucan (OXG) and amine-containing MXene (NH2-MXene), which showed efficient killing of both gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria upon near-infrared (NIR) laser irradiation. The NH2-MXene/OXG nanocomposite hydrogel showed a high photothermal antibacterial efficiency and stable photothermal conversion, demonstrated by efficient removal of biofilms ex vivo.

Abstract
We report the engineering and synthesis of peptide nucleic acid-functionalized Ti3C2Tx MXene nanosheets as a novel transducing material for amplification-free, nanoparticle-free, and isothermal electrochemical detection of microRNA biomarkers. Through bio-orthogonal copper-free click chemistry, azido-modified MXene nanosheets are covalently functionalized with clickable peptide nucleic acid probes targeting prostate cancer biomarker hsa-miR-141. The platform demonstrates a wide dynamic range, single-nucleotide specificity, and 40 aM detection limit outperforming more complex, amplification-based methods. Its versatility, analytical performance, and stability under serum exposure highlight the immense potential of this first example of click-conjugated MXene in the next generation of amplification-free biosensors.

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
The interaction between two surfaces leads to the generation of friction and wear of material. Friction and wear are some of the major challenges that may readily be overcome by the third part of tribology called lubrication. Utilizing solid lubricants including polymers, carbon-based materials, soft metals, transition metal dichalcogenides, along with their potential benefits and drawbacks in dry environments can reduce friction. Recently, an emerging class of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal nitrides, carbides or carbonitrides commonly known as MXenes have emerged as an attractive alternative for solid lubrication because of their ability to establish wear-resistant tribo layers and well as low friction and shear strength. Furthermore, the inherent hydrophilic nature of these substances has led to limited dispersion stability and phase compatibility when combined with pure base oils. As a result, their potential use as solid lubricants and lubricant additives has been impeded. To address this issue and enhance the applicability of MXenes as solid lubricants, their surface modification can be an attractive tool. Therefore, this review provides a succinct summary of the current state-of-the-art in surface functionalization of MXenes, a subject that has not yet been thoroughly addressed. Further, the mechanical behavior of MXenes and composites has been discussed, followed by the potential of MXenes as a solid lubricant at micro- and macro-scale. Finally, the existing opportunities and challenges of the research area have been discussed with possible future research directions. We believe, this article will be a valuable resource for MXenes and opens the door to improve the chemical, physical and mechanical properties of MXenes in various applications, such as solid lubrication.

Highly sensitive "off-on" sensor based on MXene and magnetic microspheres for simultaneous detection of lung cancer biomarkers - Neuron specific enolase and carcinoembryonic antigen.

Abstract
In this work, a highly sensitive lung cancer biomarkers detection probe was developed based on Ag and MXene co-functionalized magnetic microspheres. By using carboxyl magnetic microspheres as carrier, MXene was coated repeatedly by Poly (allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) as interlayer adhesive, and silver particles grown on the surface of MXene in situ can efficiently improve the sensitivity of the probe. The detection of neuron specific enolase (NSE) is mainly through the formation of a specific complex between NSE antigen and antibody, and the release of antibody labeled with amino carbon quantum dots (CQDs) from the surface of Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs), so that the fluorescence is restored and "OFF-ON" is formed. The biosensor exhibits excellently wide linear range (0.0001-1500 ng/mL) and the limit of detection (LOD) is up to 0.03 pg/mL, which is superior to most tumor marker probes based on fluorescence mechanism. Furthermore, we constructed dual detection strategy for NSE and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) simultaneously.

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
Affinity-based electrochemical (AEC) biosensors have gained more attention in the field of point-of-care management. However, AEC sensing is hampered by biofouling of the electrode surface and degradation of the antifouling material. Therefore, a breakthrough in antifouling nanomaterials is crucial for the fabrication of reliable AEC biosensors. Herein, for the first time, we propose 1-pyrenebutyric acid-functionalized MXene to develop an antifouling nanocomposite to resist biofouling in the immunosensors. The nanocomposite consisted of a 3D porous network of bovine serum albumin cross-linked with glutaraldehyde with functionalized MXene as conductive nanofillers, where the inherited oxidation resistance property of functionalized MXene improved the electrochemical lifetime of the nanocomposite. On the other hand, the size-extruded porous structure of the nanocomposite inhibited the biofouling activity on the electrode surface for up to 90 days in real samples. As a proof of concept, the antifouling nanocomposite was utilized to fabricate a multiplexed immunosensor for the detection of C-reactive protein (CRP) and ferritin biomarkers. The fabricated sensor showed good selectivity over time and an excellent limit of detection for CRP and ferritin of 6.2 and 4.2 pg/mL, respectively. This research successfully demonstrated that functionalized MXene-based antifouling nanocomposites have great potential to develop high-performance and low-cost immunosensors.

Abstract
The prevalence of pathogenic bacterial infections with high morbidity and mortality poses a widespread challenge to the healthcare system. Therefore, it is imperative to develop nanoformulations capable of adaptively releasing antimicrobial factors and demonstrating multimodal synergistic antimicrobial activity. Herein, an NIR-activated multifunctional synergistic antimicrobial nanospray MXene/ZIF-90@ICG was prepared by incorporating ZIF-90@ICG nanoparticles onto MXene-NH2 nanosheets. MXene/ZIF-90@ICG can on-demand release the antimicrobial factors MXenes, ICG, and Zn2+ in response to variations in pH and ATP levels within the bacterial infection microenvironment. Under NIR radiation, the combination of MXenes, Zn2+, and ICG generated a significant amount of ROS and elevated heat, thereby enhancing the antimicrobial efficacy of PDT and PTT. Meanwhile, NIR excitation could accelerate the further release of ICG and Zn2+, realizing the multimodal synergistic antibacterial effect of PDT/PTT/Zn2+. Notably, introducing MXenes improved the dispersion of the synthesized antimicrobial nanoparticles in aqueous solution, rendering MXene/ZIF-90@ICG a candidate for application as a nanospray. Importantly, MXene/ZIF-90@ICG demonstrated antimicrobial activity and accelerated wound healing in the constructed in vivo subcutaneous Staphylococcus aureus infection model with NIR activation, maintaining a favorable biosafety level. Therefore, MXene/ZIF-90@ICG holds promise as an innovative nanospray for adaptive multimodal synergistic and efficient antibacterial applications with NIR activation.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024; 31:38232-38250.

Abstract
Water pollutants of non-biodegradable toxic aromatic dye including Methylene blue (MB) and Rhodamine (RhB) are extremely carcinogenic thiazines used in various industries such as leather industry, paper industry, and the dyeing industry. The presence of dyes in wastewater causes severe threats to human health that are responsible for various harmful chronic or acute diseases and also shows an adverse impact on the environment as it reduces transparency and is harmful to water microorganisms. To overcome severe issues, many traditional techniques have been used to remove toxic pollutants, but these methods are insufficient to remove chemically stable dyes that remain in the treated wastewater. However, the photocatalytic degradation process is an efficient approach to degrade the dye up to the maximum extent with improved efficiency. Therefore, in this work, a new class of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbide of Titanium Carbide (Ti3C2Tx) MXene material was used for the organic dyes degradation such as MB and RhB using a photocatalytic process. A layered structure of hexagonal lattice symmetry of Ti3C2Tx MXene was successfully synthesized from the Titanium Aluminum Carbide of Ti3AlC2 bulk phase using an exfoliation process. Further, the XRD spectrum confirms the transformation of bulk MAX phase having (002) plane at 9.2° to Ti3C2Tx MXene of (002) plane at 8.88° confirms the successful removal of Al layer from MAX phase. A smooth, transparent, thin sheet-like morphology of Ti3C2Tx nanosheet size were found to be in the range of 70 to 150 nm evaluated from TEM images. Also, no holes or damages in the thin sheets were found after the treatment with strong hydrofluoric acid confirms the formation Ti3C2Tx layered sheets. The synthesized Ti3C2Tx MXene possesses excellent photocatalytic activity for the degradation of dyes MB, RhB, and mixtures of MB and RhB dyes. MB dye degraded with a degradation percentage efficiency of 99.32% in 30 min, while RhB dye was degraded upto 98.9% in 30 min. Also, experiments were conducted for degradation of mixture of MB and RhB dyes by UV light, and the degradation percentage efficiency were found to be 98.9% and 99.75% for mixture of MB and RhB dye in 45 min, respectively. Moreover, reaction rate constant (k) was determined for each dye of MB, RhB, and mixtures of MB and RhB and was found to be 0.0215 min-1 and 0.0058 min-1, and for mixtures, it was 0.0020 min-1 and 0.009 min-1, respectively.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) carbides, MXenes, have attracted attention as electrode materials of electrochemical biosensors because of their metallic conductivity, hydrophilicity, and mechanical stability. However, when fabricating electrodes, the nanosheets tend to re-stack and generally align horizontally with respect to the current collector due to the highly anisotropic nature of MXene, resulting in low porosity and poor utilization of the MXene surface. Here we report the electrochemical biosensing of antibody-antigen reactions with a vertically aligned Ti3C2Tx MXene (VA-MXene) electrode prepared by freeze-drying assisted electrophoretic deposition. The macroporous VA-MXene electrode exhibited a better electrochemical response towards the immunoreaction between the allergenic buckwheat protein (BWp16) and the antibody compared to a non-porous, horizontally (in-plane) stacked MXene (HS-MXene) and the sensors reported in the literature. The sensor responsiveness, defined as the ratio of the obtained current density of the electrode to the antigen concentration, was much higher for the VA-MXene electrode (238 μA cm-2 (ng mL-1) -1) than for the HS-MXene electrode. The proposed technique is applicable to other exfoliated nanosheets, and will open a new avenue for porous nanosheet electrodes to improve the sensing characteristics of electrochemical biosensors.

Abstract
A three-dimensional (3D) self-assembled AuNPs/Ti3C2 MXene hydrogel (AuNPs/Ti3C2 MXH) nanocomposite was prepared for the fabrication of a novel microRNA-122 electrochemical biosensor. The 3D hydrogel structure was gelated from two-dimensional MXene nanosheets with the assistance of graphite oxide and ethylenediamine. MXene hydrogels supported the in situ formation of Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) that predominantly exploring the (111) facet, and these AuNPs are utilized as carriers for hairpin DNA (hpDNA) probes, facilitating DNA hybridization. MXene acted as both a reductant and stabilizer, significantly improving the electrochemical signal. In addition, the conjugation of PAMAM dendrimer-encapsulated AuNPs and H-DNA worked as an ideal bridge to connect targets and efficient electrochemical tags, providing a high amplification efficiency for the sensing of microRNA-122. A linear relationship between the peak currents and the logarithm of the concentrations of microRNA-122 from 1.0 × 10-2 to 1.0 × 102 fM (I = 1.642 + 0.312 lgc, R2 = 0.9891), is obtained. The detection limit is 0.8 × 10-2 fM (S/N = 3). The average recovery for human serum detection ranged from 97.32 to 101.4% (RSD < 5%).

Abstract
Centralized laboratories in which analytical processes are automated to enable the analysis of large numbers of samples at relatively low cost are used for analytical testing throughout the world. However, healthcare is changing, partly due to the general recognition that care needs to be more patient-centered and putting the patient at the center of action. One way to achieve this goal is to consider point-of-care testing (PoC) devices as alternative analytical concepts. This requires miniaturization of current analytical concepts and the use of cost-effective diagnostic tools with appropriate sensitivity and specificity. Electrochemical sensors are ideally adapted as they provide robust, low-cost, and miniaturized solutions for the detection of variable analytes, yet lack the high sensitivity comparable to more classical diagnosis approaches. Advances in nanotechnology have opened up a plethora of different nanomaterials to be applied as electrode and/or sensing materials in electrochemical biosensors. The choice of materials significantly influences the sensor's sensitivity, selectivity, and overall performance. A critical review of the state of the art with respect to the development of the utilized materials (between 2019 and 2023) and where the field is heading to are the focus of this article.

Abstract
Biosensors with nanomaterials and enzymes detect and quantify specific targets in samples, converting recognition into measurable signals. The study explores the intrinsic synergy between these elements for detecting and quantifying particular targets in biological and environmental samples, with results demonstrated through bibliometric analysis and a comprehensive review of enzyme-based biosensors. Using WoS, 57,331 articles were analyzed and refined to 880. Key journals, countries, institutions, and relevant authors were identified. The main areas highlighted the multidisciplinary nature of the field, and critical keywords identified five thematic clusters, revealing the primary nanoparticles used (CNTs, graphene, AuNPs), major application fields, basic application themes, and niche topics such as sensitive detection, peroxidase activity, and quantum dot utilization. The biosensor overview covered nanomaterials and their primary applications, addressing recent advances and inherent challenges. Patent analysis emphasized the U.S. leadership in the industrial sector, contrasting with China's academic prominence. Future studies should focus on enhancing biosensor portability and analysis speed, with challenges encompassing efficient integration with recent technologies and improving stability and reproducibility in the nanomaterial-enzyme interaction.

Abstract
Cancer has been classified as a diverse illness with a wide range of subgroups. Its early identification and prognosis, which have become a requirement of cancer research, are essential for clinical treatment. Patients have already benefited greatly from the use of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and deep learning (DL) algorithms in the field of healthcare. AI simulates and combines data, pre-programmed rules, and knowledge to produce predictions. Data are used to improve efficiency across several pursuits and tasks through the art of ML. DL is a larger family of ML methods based on representational learning and simulated neural networks. Support vector machines, convulsion neural networks, and artificial neural networks, among others, have been widely used in cancer research to construct prediction models that enable precise and effective decision-making. Although using these innovative methods can enhance our comprehension of how cancer progresses, further validation is required before these techniques can be used in routine clinical practice. We cover contemporary methods used in the modelling of cancer development in this article. The presented prediction models are built using a variety of guided ML approaches, as well as numerous input attributes and data collections. Early identification and cost-effective detection of cancer's progression are equally necessary for successful treatment of the disease. Smart material-based detection techniques can give end consumers a portable, affordable instrument to easily detect and monitor their health issues without the need for specialized knowledge. Owing to their cost-effectiveness, excellent sensitivity, multimodal detection capacity, and miniaturization aptitude, two-dimensional (2D) materials have a lot of prospects for clinical examination of various compounds as well as cancer biomarkers. The effectiveness of traditional devices is moving faster towards more useful techniques thanks to developments in 2D material-based biosensors/sensors. The most current developments in the design of 2D material-based biosensors/sensors-the next wave of cancer screening instruments-are also outlined in this article.

Abstract
With the rapid development of industrialization, water pollution directly leads to the serious shortage of fresh water. As reported by the World Water Council, nearly 3.8 billion people will face water scarcity by 2030. Therefore, developing advanced nanomaterials to realize wastewater purification is a major challenge. Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides (MXenes), as the emerging 2D layered nanomaterials, have been investigated for the applications of water purification treatment since first reported in 2011. Over 40 different MXenes have been developed for environmental remediation, and dozens more structures and properties are theoretically predicted. Here, we review the advances from the aspects of synthesis strategies for MXenes, purification mechanism, and their applications in wastewater treatment processes. The major points are 1) the synthesis and modification approaches for MXenes such as multi-layered stacked MXenes and delaminated MXenes 2) a discussion of current water remediation over MXene-based materials, 3) a brief introduction for removal behaviors and deep interaction mechanisms, 4) optimization strategies and key points for boosting the remediation performance of MXenes.

Abstract
Mercury is a highly toxic element that is widely present in all types of environmental media and can accumulate in living organisms. Prolonged exposure to high levels of mercury can lead to brain damage and death, so the detection of mercury is of great importance. In this study, a cost-effective and easy-to-operate electrochemical sensing method was successfully developed based on an amino-functionalized titanium-based MXene (NH2-Ti3C2Tx) for the rapid and selective detection of Hg2+ that could have a coordination effect with the -NH2 group of NH2-Ti3C2Tx to promote the efficient accumulation of Hg2+. In this strategy, the NH2-Ti3C2Tx was first modified on glassy carbon electrodes (GCE) to fabricate the electrochemical sensor. Benefiting from the excellent electrical conductivity, abundant active sites, and strong adsorption capacity performance of the NH2-Ti3C2Tx, the NH2-Ti3C2Tx modified GCE (NH2-Ti3C2Tx/GCE) exhibited satisfactory selectivity and enhanced square wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV) measurement for the rapid detection of trace amounts of Hg2+ in aqueous solutions. The electrochemical sensor was found to be capable of detecting Hg2+ with a low detection limit of 8.27 nmol L-1 and a linear range of 0.5 μmol L-1 to 50 μmol L-1. The response time of the electrochemical sensing method was 308 s. In addition, the electrochemical sensing method has good selectivity, repeatability and stability, and multiple heavy metal ions have no effect on its detection, with repeatability and stability RSDs of 1.68% and 1.43%, respectively. Furthermore, the analysis of practical water samples demonstrated that the developed method was highly practical for the actual determination of Hg2+ with recoveries in the range of 99.22-101.90%.

Abstract
Cancer is a significant health hazard worldwide and poses a greater threat to the quality of human life. Quantifying cancer biomarkers with high sensitivity has demonstrated considerable potential for compelling, quick, cost-effective, and minimally invasive early-stage cancer detection. In line with this, efforts have been made towards developing an f-graphene@Ti3C2-MXene nanohybrid thin-film-based electrochemical biosensing platform for efficient carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) detection. The air-brush spray coating technique has been utilized for depositing the uniform thin films of amine functionalized graphene (f-graphene) and Ti3C2-MXene nanohybrid on ITO-coated glass substrate. The chemical bonding and morphological studies of the deposited nanohybrid thin films are characterized by advanced analytical tools, including XRD, XPS, and FESEM. The EDC-NHS chemistry is employed to immobilize the deposited thin films with monoclonal anti-CEA antibodies, followed by blocking the non-specific binding sites with BSA. The electrochemical response and optimization of biosensing parameters have been conducted using CV and DPV techniques. The optimized BSA/anti-CEA/f-graphene@Ti3C2-MXene immunoelectrode showed the ability to detect CEA biomarker from 0.01 pg mL-1 to 2000 ng mL-1 having a considerably lower detection limit of 0.30 pg mL-1.

Abstract
Sensors play vital roles in industry and healthcare due to the significance of controlling the presence of different substances in industrial processes, human organs, and the environment. Electrochemical sensors have gained more attention recently than conventional sensors, including optical fibers, chromatography devices, and chemiresistors, due to their better versatility, higher sensitivity and selectivity, and lower complexity. Herein, we review transition metal carbides (TMCs) and transition metal oxides (TMOs) as outstanding materials for electrochemical sensors. We navigate through the fabrication processes of TMCs and TMOs and reveal the relationships among their synthesis processes, morphological structures, and sensing performance. The state-of-the-art biological, gas, and hydrogen peroxide electrochemical sensors based on TMCs and TMOs are reviewed, and potential challenges in the field are suggested. This review can help others to understand recent advancements in electrochemical sensors based on transition metal oxides and carbides.

Abstract
This study proposes the fabrication of a highly sensitive electrochemical immunosensor for label-free detection of EpCAM antigen. MXenes, novel 2D materials have become popular owing to their unique electrochemical properties. Unlike conventional immunosensors, which are unable to detect the carcinoma at primary stage and also time consuming, the use of highly conducting MXene provides a label-free and highly sensitive immunosensor. Herein, we develop a unique immunosensor, which is based on the in-situ growth of 2D-TiO2 onto the novel 2D-Ti3C2Tx sheets by hydrothermal treatment. The 2D/2D TiO2/Ti3C2Tx hybrid provides a platform having a large effective surface area, and more number of electrochemically active sites to enhance the electron transfer rate through the redox probe. The designed sensing platform, BSA/anti-EpCAM/TiO2/Ti3C2Tx@ITO shows a broad linear range (1 ag/mL to 10 ng/mL) with high sensitivity (6.661 µA ag-1 mL cm-2), and low detection limit (0.7 ag/mL) for EpCAM antigen detection under optimized conditions. The proposed immunosensor possesses good reproducibility, long-term stability, and outstanding selectivity and specificity. Moreover, the clinical applicability of the novel immunosensor is tested in spiked human serum showing good recovery.

Abstract
3D nanocake-like Au-MXene and Au pallet (Au-MXene/AuP) nanocomposite-modified screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs) were utilized to construct an ultrasensitive label-free electrochemical aptasensor through a self-assembly procedure for trace paraquat (PQ) residue detection. Benefiting from the excellent electrochemical (EC) performances (e.g., high conductivity and large surface area) of Au-MXene nanocomposites and AuP substrate, the developed Apt/Au-MXene/AuP/SPCE-based EC aptasensor displayed excellent specificity and anti-interference ability, good repeatability, and stability. A linear relationship between the log value of the change in current intensity [lg (ΔI)] and the log value of the concentration of PQ [lg (CPQ)] was obtained in the range 0.05-1000 ng/mL. The limit of detection was 0.028 ng/mL, and the sensitivity was 255.5 μA/(μM·cm2). Practical applications in malt and mint samples confirmed the accuracy of the EC aptasensor in complex matrices for PQ detection, providing a universal analytical tool for other trace pesticides in different food samples by simply replacing the corresponding aptamers.

Abstract
Although MXene materials are considered an emerging research topic, they are receiving considerable interest because, like metals and graphene, they are good electronic conductors but with the particularity that they have a marked hydrophilic character. Having a structural organization and properties close to those of clay minerals (natural silicates typically with a lamellar morphology), they are sometimes referred to as "conducting clays" and exhibit colloidal, surface and intercalation properties also similar to those of clay minerals. The present contribution aims to inform and discuss the nature of MXenes in comparison with clay phyllosilicates, taking into account their structural analogies, outstanding surface properties and advanced applications. The current in-depth understanding of clay minerals may represent a basis for the future development of MXene-derived nanoarchitectures. Comparative examples of the preparation, and studies on the properties and applications of various nanoarchitectures based on clays and MXenes have been included in the present work.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and MXenes have demonstrated immense potential for biomedical applications, offering a plethora of advantages. MXenes, in particular, exhibit robust mechanical strength, hydrophilicity, large surface areas, significant light absorption potential, and tunable surface terminations, among other remarkable characteristics. Meanwhile, MOFs possess high porosity and large surface area, making them ideal for protecting active biomolecules and serving as carriers for drug delivery, hence their extensive study in the field of biomedicine. However, akin to other (nano)materials, concerns regarding their environmental implications persist. The number of studies investigating the toxicity and biocompatibility of MXenes and MOFs is growing, albeit further systematic research is needed to thoroughly understand their biosafety issues and biological effects prior to clinical trials. The synthesis of MXenes often involves the use of strong acids and high temperatures, which, if not properly managed, can have adverse effects on the environment. Efforts should be made to minimize the release of harmful byproducts and ensure proper waste management during the production process. In addition, it is crucial to assess the potential release of MXenes into the environment during their use in biomedical applications. For the biomedical applications of MOFs, several challenges exist. These include high fabrication costs, poor selectivity, low capacity, the quest for stable and water-resistant MOFs, as well as difficulties in recycling/regeneration and maintaining chemical/thermal/mechanical stability. Thus, careful consideration of the biosafety issues associated with their fabrication and utilization is vital. In addition to the synthesis and manufacturing processes, the ultimate utilization and fate of MOFs and MXenes in biomedical applications must be taken into account. While numerous reviews have been published regarding the biomedical applications of MOFs and MXenes, this perspective aims to shed light on the key environmental implications and biosafety issues, urging researchers to conduct further research in this field. Thus, the crucial aspects of the environmental implications and biosafety of MOFs and MXenes in biomedicine are thoroughly discussed, focusing on the main challenges and outlining future directions.

Abstract
In this work, a novel and sensitive electrochemical biosensor was constructed based on a black phosphorene (BP) and nanosized zinc oxide (ZnO@BP) nanocomposite as a modifier, which was used for the immobilization of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) on a carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE). The ZnO@BP nanocomposite was synthesized by a simple in situ hydrothermal method with stripped black phosphorus nanoplates and ZnO. The ZnO@BP and HRP-modified electrode was developed by a casting method. ZnO@BP with highly conductivity, large surface area and good biocompatibility could maintain the bioactivity of HRP and accelerate the electron transfer rate. Cyclic voltammetry was used to study the direct electrochemistry of HRP on the Nafion/HRP/ZnO@BP/CILE with the appearance of a pair of distinct redox peaks. The constructed electrochemical HRP biosensor exhibited excellent electrocatalytic effects on the reduction of trichloroacetic acid and sodium nitrite. Real samples were detected with satisfactory results, which demonstrated the potential applications of this electrochemical HRP biosensor.

Abstract
Biomarkers have the potential to be utilized in disease diagnosis, prediction and monitoring. The cancer cell type is a leading candidate for next-generation biomarkers. Although traditional digital biomolecular sensor (DBS) technology has shown to be effective in assessing cell-based interactions, low cell-population detection of cancer cell types is extremely challenging. Here, we controlled the electrical signature of a two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterial, tungsten disulfide (WS2), by utilizing a combination of the Phage-integrated Polymer and the Nanosheet (PPN), viz., the integration of the M13-conjugated polyethylene glycol (PEG) and the WS2, through shape-complementarity phenomena, and developed a sensor system, i.e., the Phage-based DBS (P-DBS), for the specific, rapid, sensitive detection of clinically-relevant MCF-7 cells. The P-DBS attains a detection limit of 12 cells per μL, as well as a contrast of 1.25 between the MCF-10A sample signal and the MCF-7 sample signal. A reading length of 200 μs was further achieved, along with a relative cell viability of ∼100% for both MCF-7 and MCF-10A cells and with the PNN. Atomistic simulations reveal the structural origin of the shape complementarity-facilitated decrease in the output impedance of the P-DBS. The combination of previously unreported exotic sensing materials and digital sensor design represents an approach to unlocking the ultra-sensitive detection of cancer cell types and provides a promising avenue for early cancer diagnosis, staging and monitoring.

Abstract
Herein, we propose a label-free chemiresistive sensor for the highly sensitive and selective detection of microcystin (MC)-LR in water samples. The sensor uses a layer-by-layer (LBL) assembled conductive film consisting of Ti3C2Tx nanosheets as the sensing channel. It is further modified by using an aptamer for the specific recognition of MC-LR. The response signal is based on the change in resistance of the conductive channel upon binding of MC-LR with the aptamer. Our novel strategy is the first concept proposed for immobilizing the aptamer containing -SH on the channel surface through a Ti-S bond under weakly alkaline condition. The resulting sensor is highly sensitive and stable for the detection of MC-LR, with a detection limit of 0.18 ng L-1 and a wide linear range from 1 to 104 ng L-1. We used the sensor to continuously monitor MC-LR released by cultivated Microcystis aeruginosa, showing a strong relationship between MC-LR and cell density. Furthermore, the sensor was successfully used to measure MC-LR in freshwater lakes with moderate algal blooms, and the results agreed well with those obtained by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis. The present study provides a reliable method for highly sensitive and selective detection of MC-LR in environmental waters.

Abstract
MXenes and graphene are two-dimensional materials that have gained increasing attention in neuroscience, particularly in sensing, theranostics, and biomedical engineering. Various composites of graphene and MXenes with fascinating thermal, optical, magnetic, mechanical, and electrical properties have been introduced to develop advanced nanosystems for diagnostic and therapeutic applications, as exemplified in the case of biosensors for neurotransmitter detection. These biosensors display high sensitivity, selectivity, and stability, making them promising tools for neuroscience research. MXenes have been employed to create high-resolution neural interfaces for neuroelectronic devices, develop neuro-receptor-mediated synapse devices, and stimulate the electrophysiological maturation of neural circuits. On the other hand, graphene/derivatives exhibit therapeutic applicability in neuroscience, as exemplified in the case of graphene oxide for targeted delivery of therapeutic agents to the brain. While MXenes and graphene have potential benefits in neuroscience, there are also challenges/limitations associated with their use, such as toxicity, environmental impacts, and limited understanding of their properties. In addition, large-scale production and commercialization as well as optimization of reaction/synthesis conditions and clinical translation studies are very important aspects. Thus, it is important to consider the use of these materials in neuroscience research and conduct further research to obtain an in-depth understanding of their properties and potential applications. By addressing issues related to biocompatibility, long-term stability, targeted delivery, electrical interfaces, scalability, and cost-effectiveness, MXenes and graphene have the potential to greatly advance the field of neuroscience and pave the way for innovative diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for neurological disorders. Herein, recent advances in therapeutic and diagnostic applications of graphene- and MXene-based materials in neuroscience are discussed, focusing on important challenges and future prospects.

Abstract
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are important prognostic markers for cancer diagnosis and metastasis, and their detection is an important means to detect cancer metastasis. Herein, we construct a novel bifunctional electrochemical biosensor based on the PB-MXene composite films. A simple electrostatic self-assembly approach was employed to prepare a film composed of PB nanocubes on the MXene substrates. Given that the PB is an artificial peroxidase for H2O2 sensing, the PB-MXene films can realize the real-time monitoring of H2O2 secretion from living CTCs. Besides, the anti-CEA attached biosensors can be utilized to quantify the corresponding CTCs. The synergic effects of the MXene with a large specific area and PB with enzyme-free catalysis for H2O2 resulted in PB-MXene films exhibiting high electrocatalytic and low cytotoxicity for both H2O2 sensing and living CTCs capturing. As a result, the biosensor shows a low detection limit of 0.57 μM towards H2O2 with a wide linear range (1 μM to 500 μM), as well as an excellent sensing performance for CTCs (an extremely low detection limit of 9 cells/mL in a wide linear range of 1.3 ×101 to 1.3 ×106 cells/mL). Moreover, the prepared biosensor showed satisfactory stability and anti-interference ability for potential applications in clinical cancer diagnosis and tumor metastasis.

Abstract
Recent years have seen a lot of interest in transition metal carbides/carbonitrides (MXenes), Which is one of newly proliferating two-dimensional (2D) materials.The advantages and applications of synthesizing MXenes-based biosensing systems are interesting. There is an urgent requirement for synthesis of MXenes. Through foliation, physical adsorption, and interface modification,it has been proposed that many biological disorders are related to genetic mutation. Majority of mutations were discovered to be nucleotide mismatches. Consequently, accurate -nucleotide mismatched discrimination is crucial for both diagnosing and treating diseases. To differentiate between such a sensitivealterations in the DNA duplex, several detection methods, particularly Electrochemical-luminescence (ECL) ones, have really been investigated.Mn+1XnTx is common name for MXenes, a novel family of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides, where T stands for interface termination units (i.e. = O, OH, and/or F). These electronic characteristics of MXenes may be changed between conductive to semiconducting due to abundant organometallic chemistry.Solid-state ECL sensors predicated on MXene would provide the facile nucleotide detection and convenience for usage with minimal training, mobility and possibly minimal cost.This study emphasizes upcoming requirements and possibilities in this area while describing the accomplishments achieved in the usage and employing of MXenes in the research and development of facile biomarkerdetection and their significance in designing electrochemical sensors. Opportunities are addressed for creating 2D MXene materials sensors and devices with incorporated biomolecule sensing. MXenes Carry out this process sensors, address the advantages of using MXenes and their variants as detecting materials for gathering different types of data, and attempt to clarify the design principles and operation of related MXene-based sensors, such as nucleotide detection, Single nucleotide detectors, Cancer theranostics, Biosensing capabilities, Gliotoxin detection, SARS-COV-2 nucleocapsid detection, electrochemical sensors, visual sensors, and humidity sensors. Finally, we examine the major issues and prospects for MXene-based materials used in various sensing applications.

Abstract
Small-molecule (m/z<500) natural products have rich biological activity and significant application value thus need to be effectively detected. Surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (SALDI MS) has become a powerful detection tool for small-molecule analysis. However, more efficient substrates need to be developed to improve the efficiency of SALDI MS. Thus, platinum nanoparticle-decorated Ti3C2 MXene (Pt@MXene) was synthesized in this study as an ideal substrate for SALDI MS in positive ion mode and exhibited excellent performance for the high-throughput detection of small molecules. Compared with using MXene, GO, and CHCA matrix, a stronger signal peak intensity and wider molecular coverage was obtained using Pt@MXene in the detection of small-molecule natural products, with a lower background, excellent salt and protein tolerance, good repeatability, and high detection sensitivity. The Pt@MXene substrate was also successfully used to quantify target molecules in medicinal plants. The proposed method has potentially wide application.

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
New possibilities for the development of biosensors that are ready to be implemented in the field have emerged thanks to the recent progress of functional nanomaterials and the careful engineering of nanostructures. Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials have exceptional physical, chemical, highly anisotropic, chemically active, and mechanical capabilities due to their ultra-thin structures. The diversity of the high surface area, layered topologies, and porosity found in 2D nanomaterials makes them amenable to being engineered with surface characteristics that make it possible for targeted identification. By integrating the distinctive features of several varieties of nanostructures and employing them as scaffolds for bimolecular assemblies, biosensing platforms with improved reliability, selectivity, and sensitivity for the identification of a plethora of analytes can be developed. In this review, we compile a number of approaches to using 2D nanomaterials for biomolecule detection.

Abstract
Influenza viruses are known to cause pandemic flu through inter-human and animal-to-human transmissions. Neuraminidase (NA), which is a surface glycoprotein of both influenza A and B viruses, is a minor immunogenic determinant; however, it has been proposed as an ideal candidate for a real testing. We successfully identified an affinity peptide which is specific to the influenza H5N1 virus NA via phage display technique and observed initially its binding affinities using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In addition, four synthetic peptides were chemically synthesized to develop an affinity peptide-based electrochemical biosensing system. Among all peptides tested, INA BP2 was selected as a potential candidate and subjected to square-wave voltammetry (SWV) for evaluating their detection performance. To enhance analytical performance, a three-dimensional porous bovine serum albumin (BSA)-MXene (BSA/MXene) matrix was applied. The surface morphology of the BSA/MXene film-deposited electrode was analyzed using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Using SWV measurement, the BSA/MXene nanocomposite-based peptide sensor exhibited significant the dissociation constant (Kd = 9.34 ± 1.20 nM) and the limit of detection (LOD, 0.098 nM), resulting in good reproducibility, stability and recovery, even in the presence with spiked human plasma. These results demonstrate an alternative way of new bioanalytical sensing platform for developing more desirable sensitivity in other virus detection.

Abstract
MXenes have received lots of attention since discovered and have been applied in various fields. In this work, Ti3C2-Fe3O4 composites with exposed non-modified Ti3C2 MXene nanosheets were designed and prepared by an in situ growth strategy and then applied in the enrichment of phosphopeptides. The two-dimensional composites could interact with the phosphopeptides through a metal oxide affinity chromatography mechanism provided by Ti-O and Fe-O bonds and a hydrophilic interaction chromatography mechanism by surface hydroxyl groups. This magnetic nanomaterial with a specific surface area of 66.1 m2·g-1 had high sensitivity to phosphopeptides (0.5 nmol·L-1) and high selectivity (1:1000 of the molar ratio of β-casein to bovine serum albumin). Non-fat milk was adopted as a real sample to preliminarily examine the applicability of the Ti3C2-Fe3O4-based protocol. Subsequently, Qingkailing injection, a kind of traditional Chinese medicine injection, was introduced to further explore the suitability of the nanocomposites for phosphopeptide enrichment from more complex matrices and satisfactory results were obtained.

Abstract
MXene is a magical class of 2D nanomaterials and emerging in many applications in diverse fields. Due to the multiple advantageous characteristics of its fundamental components, such as structural, physicochemical, optical, and occasionally even biological characteristics. However, it is limited in the biomedical industry due to poor physiological stability, decomposition rate, and lack of controlled and sustained drug release. These limitations can be overcome when MXene forms composites with other 2D materials. The efficiency of pure MXene in biomedicine is inferior to that of MXene-based composites. The availability of functionality on the exterior part of MXene has a key role in the modification of their surface and their characteristics. This review provides an extensive discussion on the synthesizing of MXene and the role of the surface functionalities on the efficiency of MXene. In addition, a detailed discussion of the biomedical applications of MXene, including antibacterial activity, regenerative medicine, CT scan capability, drug delivery, diagnostics, MRI and biosensing capability. Furthermore, an outline of the future problems and challenges of MXene-based materials for biomedical applications was narrated. Thus, these salient features showcase the potential of MXene-based material and will be a breakthrough in biomedical applications in the near future.

A novel electrochemical biosensor based on signal amplification of Au HFGNs/PnBA-MXene nanocomposite for the detection of miRNA-122 as a biomarker of breast cancer. Talanta 2023; 255:124247. [PMID: 36603443 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2022.124247] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/03/2022] [Revised: 12/25/2022] [Accepted: 12/30/2022] [Indexed: 01/02/2023]
Abstract
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide and a crisis for global health. Breast cancer is the second most common cancer globally. In the perusal, a novel electrochemical biosensor amplified with hierarchical flower-like gold, poly (n-butyl acrylate), and MXene (AuHFGNs/PnBA-MXene) nanocomposite and activated by highly special antisense ssDNA (single-stranded DNA) provide a promising alternative for miRNA-122 detection as a biomarker of breast cancer. The biosensor presented a detection limit of 0.0035 aM (S/N = 3) with a linear range from 0.01 aM to 10 nM. The platform was tried on 20 breast cancer miRNAs extracted from actual serum specimens (10 positives and 10 negatives). Founded on the quantitatively obtained outcomes and statistic analysis (t-test, box-graph, receiver performance characteristic curve, and cut-off amount), the biosensor showed a meaningful discrepancy between the native and positive groups with 100% specificity and 100% sensitivity. While, RT-qPCR showed less specificity and sensitivity (70% specificity, 100% sensitivity) than the proposed biosensor. To assess the quantitative capacity and biosensor detection limit for clinical tests, the biosensor diagnosis performance for continually diluted miRNA extracted from patients was compared to that gained by RT-qPCR results, indicating that the biosensor detection limit was lower than RT-qPCR. ssDNA/AuHFGN/PnBA-MXene/GCE displayed little cross-reaction with other sequences and also showed desirable stability, reproducibility, and specificity and stayed stable until 32 days. As a result, the designed biosensor can perform as a hopeful method for diagnosis applications.

Abstract
Cancer nanomedicine has been investigated widely and boomed in the last two decades, resulting in designing nanostructures with biofunctionalization, giving rise to an "All-in-One" multifunctional platform. The development of rational design technology with extended functionalities brought interdisciplinary researchers to work continuously, aiming to find a prevent or effectively treat the deadly disease of the century. Thus, it led to some Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approving nano-based formulations for cancer treatment and opening a vast area of promising discoveries by exploiting different nanomaterials. Two-dimensional (2D) materials have recently gained tremendous interest among scientists because of their outstanding structural, optical, electronic, thermal, and mechanical characteristics. Among various 2D nanomaterials, MXenes are a widely studied nanosystem because of their close similarity to graphene analogs. So, it is synthesized using multiple approaches and exploits their inherited properties. But in most cases, surface functionalization techniques are carried out for targeting, site-specific drug clearance, renal clearance, and biocompatible with healthy cells. Thus, fabricating a multimodal agent for mono or combined therapies is also an image-guided diagnostic agent. This review will explain the recent and emerging advancements of MXenes-based composites as a multifunctional theragnostic agent and discuss the possibilities of transferring laboratory research to clinical translation.

Abstract
In this work, gold nanoparticles@Ti3C2 MXenes nanocomposites with excellent properties were combined with toehold-mediated DNA strand displacement reaction to construct an electrochemical circulating tumor DNA biosensor. The gold nanoparticles were synthesized in situ on the surface of Ti3C2 MXenes as a reducing and stabilizing agent. The good electrical conductivity of the gold nanoparticles@Ti3C2 MXenes composite and the nucleic acid amplification strategy of enzyme-free toehold-mediated DNA strand displacement reaction can be used to efficiently and specifically detect the non-small cell cancer biomarker circulating tumor DNA KRAS gene. The biosensor has a linear detection range of 10 fM −10 nM and a detection limit of 0.38 fM, and also efficiently distinguishes single base mismatched DNA sequences. The biosensor has been successfully used for the sensitive detection of KRAS gene G12D, which has excellent potential for clinical analysis and provides a new idea for the preparation of novel MXenes-based two-dimensional composites and their application in electrochemical DNA biosensors.

Abstract
Surface modification to improve the oxidation stability and dispersibility of MXene in diverse organic media is a facile strategy for broadening its application. Among the various ligands that can be grafted on the MXene surface, oleylamine (OAm), with amine functionalities, is an advantageous candidate owing to its strong interactions and commercial viability. OAms are grafted onto MXene through covalent bonds induced by nucleophilic reactions and H bonds in liquid interface reactions at room temperature. In addition, this grafting behavior of the ligand was characterized by a reduction in the slope with an increase in the ligand concentration (Cl), confirming that the OAms were grafted via Langmuir-like behavior, and the monolayer of OAms was developed via two distinct steps (I: lying-down phase; II: ordered monolayer). MXene nanosheets modified by OAm (OAm-MX) are highly dispersible in a wide range of organic solvents owing to the alkyl chain of the OAms, which induces hydrophobic properties on the surface of MXene. The OAm-MX dispersion exhibits outstanding oxidation and dispersion stability and remarkable coating performance on a wide range of substrates owing to their excellent solution processability. Therefore, this study provides fundamental insights into the adsorption behavior and interaction between amine ligands and MXene nanosheets for the surface chemistry of MXene.
