[PMID: 38903671 PMCID: PMC11189030 DOI: 10.1039/d4ra01196a] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2024] [Accepted: 06/07/2024] [Indexed: 06/22/2024] Open
Abstract
The remarkable properties of carbon-based nanomaterials (CNMs) have stimulated a significant increase in studies on different 0D, 1D and 2D nanostructures, which have promising applications in various fields of science and technology. However, the use of graphite as a raw material, which is essential for their production, limits the scalability of these nanostructures. In this context, petroleum coke (PC), a by-product of the coking process in petrochemical industry with a high carbon content (>80 wt%), is emerging as an attractive and low-cost option for the synthesis of carbonaceous nanostructures. This brief review presents recent research related to the use of PC as a precursor for CNMs, such as graphene and its oxidized (GO) and reduced (RGO) variants, among other carbon-based nanostructures. The work highlights the performance of these materials in specific areas of application. In addition, this review describes and analyzes strategies for transforming low-cost, environmentally friendly waste into advanced technological innovations with greater added value, in line with the UN's 2030 Agenda.

Mikrochim Acta 2024; 191:237. [PMID: 38570419 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-024-06303-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2023] [Accepted: 03/07/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2024]
Abstract
An ultra-sensitive fluorescent biosensor based on CDs/QDs@ZIF-8 and microfluidic fluidized bed was developed for rapid and ultra-sensitive detection of multiple target bacteria. The zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIF-8) act as the carrier to encapsulate three kinds of fluorescence signal molecules from the CDs/QDs@ZIF-8 signal amplification system. Besides, three kinds of target pathogenic bacteria were automatically, continuously, and circularly captured by the magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) in the microfluidic fluidized bed. The neutral Na2EDTA solution was the first time reported to not only dissolve the ZIF-8 frameworks from the MNPs-bacteria-CDs/QDs@ZIF-8 sandwich complexes, but also release the CDs/QDs from sandwich complexes with no loss of fluorescence signal. Due to the advantages of signal amplification and automated sample pretreatment, the proposed fluorescent biosensor can simultaneously detect Escherichia coli O157:H7, Salmonella paratyphi A, and Salmonella paratyphi B as low as 101 CFU/mL within 1.5 h, respectively. The mean recovery in spiked milk samples can reach 99.18%, verifying the applicability of this biosensor in detecting multiple bacteria in real samples.

Abstract
The accurate determination of organophosphorus pesticide residues is of great importance for human disease monitoring and environmental safety. Numerous detection methods exist, among which sensitive monitoring of organophosphorus compounds using electrochemical sensors has gradually become a research hotspot. This paper used acetylcholinesterase (AChE) as an indicator anchored on a zinc oxide-reduced graphene oxide (ZnO-rGO) composite rich in active sites, in which green non-toxic zinc oxide (ZnO) nanomaterials were uniformly distributed on the reduced graphene for rapid detection of organophosphorus. The effects of different ratios of ZnO to reduced graphene on the performance of ZnO-rGO nanocomposites were investigated. The AChE/ZnO-rGO biosensor detects organophosphorus by electrochemical inhibition of acetylcholinesterase in the presence of organophosphorus. The developed electrochemical biosensor has high selectivity and good linearity, and the ZnO-rGO nanocomposite as a matrix for immobilization of acetylcholinesterase and detection of organophosphorus has the potential for highly sensitive pesticide detection.

Abstract
Graphene is an emerging nanomaterial increasingly being used in electrochemical biosensing applications owing to its high surface area, excellent conductivity, ease of functionalization, and superior electrocatalytic properties compared to other carbon-based electrodes and nanomaterials, enabling faster electron transfer kinetics and higher sensitivity. Graphene electrochemical biosensors may have the potential to enable the rapid, sensitive, and low-cost detection of cancer biomarkers. This paper reviews early-stage research and proof-of-concept studies on the development of graphene electrochemical biosensors for potential future cancer diagnostic applications. Various graphene synthesis methods are outlined along with common functionalization approaches using polymers, biomolecules, nanomaterials, and synthetic chemistry to facilitate the immobilization of recognition elements and improve performance. Major sensor configurations including graphene field-effect transistors, graphene modified electrodes and nanocomposites, and 3D graphene networks are highlighted along with their principles of operation, advantages, and biosensing capabilities. Strategies for the immobilization of biorecognition elements like antibodies, aptamers, peptides, and DNA/RNA probes onto graphene platforms to impart target specificity are summarized. The use of nanomaterial labels, hybrid nanocomposites with graphene, and chemical modification for signal enhancement are also discussed. Examples are provided to illustrate applications for the sensitive electrochemical detection of a broad range of cancer biomarkers including proteins, circulating tumor cells, DNA mutations, non-coding RNAs like miRNA, metabolites, and glycoproteins. Current challenges and future opportunities are elucidated to guide ongoing efforts towards transitioning graphene biosensors from promising research lab tools into mainstream clinical practice. Continued research addressing issues with reproducibility, stability, selectivity, integration, clinical validation, and regulatory approval could enable wider adoption. Overall, graphene electrochemical biosensors present powerful and versatile platforms for cancer diagnosis at the point of care.

Abstract
Graphene (GR) composites have great potential for the determination of carbamates pesticides (CPs) by electrochemical methods. Since the beginning of the 20th century, GR has shown remarkable promise as electrode material for various sensors. The contamination of food products with harmful CPs is a major problem as they do not always damage human health immediately, but can be harmful after prolonged exposure. A range of advantages can be gained from their electrochemical determination, such as high sensitivity, reasonably selectivity, rapid detection, low limit of detection, and easy electrode fabrication. Furthermore, these electrochemical techniques are robust, reproducible, user-friendly, and conform to both "green" and "white" analytical chemistry. This review is focused on results published in the last ten years in the field of electrochemical determination of CPs in food products using GR and its derivatives.

Abstract
Picloram (4-Amino-3,5,6-trichloro pyridine-2-carboxylic acid) is a chlorinated herbicide that has been discovered to be tenacious and relatively durable in both soil and water. It is known to have adverse and unpleasant effects on humans causing several health complications. Therefore, the determination of picloram is profoundly effective because of its bio-accumulative and persistent nature. Because of this, a sensitive, rapid, and robust detection system is essential to detect traces of this molecule. In this study, we have constructed a novel nanohybrid system comprising of an UZMWCNT and rGO decorated on AuNPs modified glassy carbon electrode (UZMWCNT + rGO/AuNPs/GCE). The synthesized nanomaterials and the developed system were characterized using techniques such as SEM, XRD, SWV, LSV, EIS, and chronoamperometry. The engineered sensor surface showed a broad linear range of 5 × 10-2 nM to 6 × 105 nM , a low limit of detection (LOD) of 2.31 ± 0.02 (RSD < 4.1%) pM and a limit of quantification (LOQ) of 7.63 ± 0.03 pM. The response time was recorded to be 0.2 s, and the efficacy of the proposed sensor system was studied using rice water and soil samples collected from the agricultural field post filtration. The calculated recovery % for picloram in rice water was found to be 88.58%-96.70% (RSD < 3.5%, n = 3) and for soil it was found to be 89.57%-93.24% (RSD < 3.5%, n = 3). In addition, the SWV responses of both the real samples have been performed and a linear plot have been obtained with a correlation coefficient of 0.97 and 0.96 for rice and soil samples, respectively. The interference studies due to the coexisting molecules that may be present in the samples have been found to be negligible. Also, the designed sensor has been evaluated for stability and found to be highly reproducible and stable towards picloram detection.

[PMID: 37366953 DOI: 10.3390/bios13060588] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2023] [Revised: 05/20/2023] [Accepted: 05/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2023]
Abstract
The ultimate objective of this research work is to design a sensitive and selective electrochemical sensor for the efficient detection of ascorbic acid (AA), a vital antioxidant found in blood serum that may serve as a biomarker for oxidative stress. To achieve this, we utilized a novel Yb2O3.CuO@rGO nanocomposite (NC) as the active material to modify the glassy carbon working electrode (GCE). The structural properties and morphological characteristics of the Yb2O3.CuO@rGO NC were investigated using various techniques to ensure their suitability for the sensor. The resulting sensor electrode was able to detect a broad range of AA concentrations (0.5-1571 µM) in neutral phosphate buffer solution, with a high sensitivity of 0.4341 µAµM-1cm-2 and a reasonable detection limit of 0.062 µM. The sensor's great sensitivity and selectivity allowed it to accurately determine the levels of AA in human blood serum and commercial vitamin C tablets. It demonstrated high levels of reproducibility, repeatability, and stability, making it a reliable and robust sensor for the measurement of AA at low overpotential. Overall, the Yb2O3.CuO@rGO/GCE sensor showed great potential in detecting AA from real samples.

Abstract
Rapid and sensitive detection of foodborne pathogens in complex environments is essential for food protection. A universal electrochemical aptasensor was fabricated for the detection of three common foodborne pathogens, including Escherichia coli (E. coli), Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), and Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium). The aptasensor was developed based on the homogeneous and membrane filtration strategy. Zirconium-based metal-organic framework (UiO-66)/methylene blue (MB)/aptamer composite was designed as a signal amplification and recognition probe. Bacteria were quantitatively detected by the current changes of MB. By simply changing the aptamer, different bacteria could be detected. The detection limits of E. coli, S. aureus and S. typhimurium were 5, 4 and 3 CFU·mL-1, respectively. In humidity and salt environments, the stability of the aptasensor was satisfactory. The aptasensor exhibited satisfactory detection performance in different real samples. This aptasensor has excellent potential for rapid detection of foodborne pathogens in complex environments.

Abstract
Lipase has been gaining attention as the recognition element in electrochemical biosensors. Lipase immobilization is important to maintain its stability while providing excellent conductivity. In this study, a lipase electrochemical biosensor immobilized on a copper-centred metal-organic framework integrated with reduced graphene oxide (lipase/rGO/Cu-MOF) was synthesized by a facile method at room temperature. Response surface methodology (RSM) via central composite design (CCD) was used to optimize the synthesis parameters, which are rGO weight, ultrasonication time, and lipase concentration, to maximize the current response for the detection of p-nitrophenyl acetate (p-NPA). The results of the analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed that all three parameters were significant, while the interaction between the ultrasonication time and lipase concentration was the only significant interaction with a p-value of less than 0.05. The optimized electrode with parameters of 1 mg of rGO, 30 min ultrasonication time, and 30 mg mL-1 lipase exhibited the highest current response of 116.93 μA using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and had a residual standard error (RSE) of less than 2% in validation, indicating that the model is suitable to be used. It was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), where the integration of the composite was observed. Immobilization using ultrasonication altered the lipase's secondary structure, but reduced its unorderly coils. The electrochemical and thermal analysis showed that the combination of Cu-MOF with rGO enhanced the electrochemical conductivity and thermostability.

Graphene Oxide-PAMAM Nanocomposite and Ionic Liquid Modified Carbon Paste Electrode: An Efficient Electrochemical Sensor for Simultaneous Determination of Catechol and Resorcinol. Diagnostics (Basel) 2023; 13:diagnostics13040632.

Abstract
In this paper, a simple strategy was proposed for the analysis of catechol by a carbon paste electrode (CPE) modified with graphene oxide-third generation of poly(amidoamine) dendrimer (GO/G3-PAMAM) nanocomposite and ionic liquid (IL). The synthesis of GO-PAMAM nanocomposite was confirmed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) techniques. The prepared modified electrode (GO-PAMAM/ILCPE) exhibited good performance to detect catechol with a notable decrease in overpotential and increase in current compared with an unmodified CPE. Under optimum experimental conditions, GO-PAMAM/ILCPE electrochemical sensors indicated a lower limit of detection (LOD) of 0.034 μM and a linear response in the concentration range of 0.1 to 200.0 µM for the quantitative measurement of catechol in aqueous solutions. In addition, GO-PAMAM/ILCPE sensor exhibited an ability to simultaneously determine catechol and resorcinol. It can be found that catechol and resorcinol could be completely separated on the GO-PAMAM/ILCPE with the differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) technique. Finally, a GO-PAMAM/ILCPE sensor was utilized to detect catechol and resorcinol in water samples with recoveries of 96.2% to 103.3% and relative standard deviations (RSDs) of less than 1.7%.

Abstract
AbstractRecently, nanocarriers, including micelles, polymers, carbon-based materials, liposomes, and other substances, have been developed for efficient delivery of drugs, nucleotides, and biomolecules. This review focuses on graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) as active components in nanocarriers, because their chemical structures and easy functionalization can be valuable assets for in vitro and in vivo delivery. Herein, we describe the preparation, structure, and functionalization of GO and rGO. Additionally, their important properties to function as nanocarriers are presented, including their molecular interactions with various compounds, near-infrared light adsorption, and biocompatibility. Subsequently, their mechanisms and the most appealing examples of their delivery applications are summarized. Overall, GO- and rGO-based nanocomposites show great promise as multipurpose nanocarriers owing to their various potential applications in drug and gene delivery, phototherapy, bioimaging, biosensing, tissue engineering, and as antibacterial agents.

Abstract
Copper-silver and cobalt-silver alloy nanoparticles deposited on reduced graphene oxide (CuAg/rGO and CoAg/rGO) were synthesized and examined as electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and hydrogen peroxide reduction reaction (HPRR) in alkaline media. Characterization of the prepared samples was done by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy with integrated energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS). CuAg/rGO and CoAg/rGO nanoparticles diameter ranged from 0.4 to 9.2 nm. The Ag loading was ca. 40 wt.% for both electrocatalysts, with that for Cu and Co being 35 and 17 wt.%, respectively. CoAg/rGO electrocatalyst showed a Tafel slope of 109 mV dec−1, significantly lower than that for CuAg/rGO (184 mV dec−1), suggesting faster ORR kinetics. Additionally, a higher diffusion current density was obtained for CoAg/rGO (−2.63 mA cm−2) than for CuAg/rGO (−1.74 mA cm−2). The average value of the number of electrons transferred during ORR was 2.8 for CuAg/rGO and 3.3 for CoAg/rGO electrocatalyst, further confirming the higher ORR activity of the latter. On the other hand, CuAg/rGO showed higher peak current densities (−3.96 mA cm−2) for HPRR compared to those recorded for CoAg/rGO electrocatalyst (−1.96 mA cm−2).

Abstract
The paper presents the use of surfactant-induced MWCNTs/PDMS-based nanocomposites for tactile sensing applications. The significance of nanocomposites-based sensors has constantly been growing due to their enhanced electromechanical characteristics. As a result of the simplified customization for their target applications, research is ongoing to determine the quality and quantity of the precursor materials that are involved in the fabrication of nanocomposites. Although a significant amount of work has been done to develop a wide range of nanocomposite-based prototypes, they still require optimization when mixed with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) matrices. Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs) are one of the pioneering materials used in multifunctional sensing applications due to their high yield, excellent electrical conductivity and mechanical properties, and high structural integrity. Among the other carbon allotropes used to form nanocomposites, MWCNTs have been widely studied due to their enhanced bonding with the polymer matrix, highly densified sampling, and even surfacing throughout the composites. This paper highlights the development, characterization and implementation of surfactant-added MWCNTs/PDMS-based nanocomposites. The prototypes consisted of an optimized amount of sodium dodecyl sulfonate (SDS) and MWCNTs mixed as nanofillers in the PDMS matrix. The results have been promising in terms of their mechanical behaviour as they responded well to a maximum strain of 40%. Stable and repeatable output was obtained with a response time of 1 millisecond. The Young’s Modulus of the sensors was 2.06 MPa. The utilization of the prototypes for low-pressure tactile sensing applications is also shown here.

Abstract
Lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA), which combines immune-specific recognition properties with sensitive nano-signaling features, has emerged as an excellent tool for point-of-care testing (POCT) in food safety and clinical diagnosis. Exploring novel probes with a simple preparation process, improved signal intensity and good stability is conducive to the development and application of LFIA. Herein, a potent non-antibody probe, graphene-labeled synthetic antigen (G-Ag), was created for LFIA, in which graphene endowed a naked-eye visual colorimetric signal with high sensitivity, and the synthetic antigen competed with the target for binding to the antibody on the test line. During the G-Ag probe manufacturing process, only one simple mixing step was needed because graphene nanosheets presented a strong adsorption capacity toward the protein (BSA) on the synthetic antigen, significantly saving time, labor and cost. Especially, the synthetic antigen forms a fabulous probe element without the need for antibody, and thus the proposed LFIA avoids the destruction of antibody activity, and exhibits excellent sensitivity and stability. After optimization, LFIA was successfully applied to analyze clenbuterol; the lowest visually detectable concentration was 0.1 ng mL-1, and the probe could be well-applied in pork, mutton, sausage and bacon samples, demonstrating favorable specificity and repeatability. Owing to the advantages of simplicity, non-antibody probe, sensitivity and reliability, G-Ag probe-based LFIA has application potential for small-molecule target monitoring and rapid detection.

Abstract
This paper presents a substantial review of the fabrication and implementation of graphene-PDMS-based composites for wearable sensing applications. Graphene is a pivotal nanomaterial which is increasingly being used to develop multifunctional sensors due to their enhanced electrical, mechanical, and thermal characteristics. It has been able to generate devices with excellent performances in terms of sensitivity and longevity. Among the polymers, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) has been one of the most common ones that has been used in biomedical applications. Certain attributes, such as biocompatibility and the hydrophobic nature of PDMS, have led the researchers to conjugate it in graphene sensors as substrates or a polymer matrix. The use of these graphene/PDMS-based sensors for wearable sensing applications has been highlighted here. Different kinds of electrochemical and strain-sensing applications have been carried out to detect the physiological signals and parameters of the human body. These prototypes have been classified based on the physical nature of graphene used to formulate the sensors. Finally, the current challenges and future perspectives of these graphene/PDMS-based wearable sensors are explained in the final part of the paper.

Abstract
Viral infections are becoming the foremost driver of morbidity, mortality and economic loss all around the world. Treatment for diseases associated to some deadly viruses are challenging tasks, due to lack of infrastructure, finance and availability of rapid, accurate and easy-to-use detection methods or devices. The emergence of biosensors has proven to be a success in the field of diagnosis to overcome the challenges associated with traditional methods. Furthermore, the incorporation of aptamers as bio-recognition elements in the design of biosensors has paved a way towards rapid, cost-effective, and specific detection devices which are insensitive to changes in the environment. In the last decade, aptamers have emerged to be suitable and efficient biorecognition elements for the detection of different kinds of analytes, such as metal ions, small and macro molecules, and even cells. The signal generation in the detection process depends on different parameters; one such parameter is whether the labelled molecule is incorporated or not for monitoring the sensing process. Based on the labelling, biosensors are classified as label or label-free; both have their significant advantages and disadvantages. Here, we have primarily reviewed the advantages for using aptamers in the transduction system of sensing devices. Furthermore, the labelled and label-free opto-electrochemical aptasensors for the detection of various kinds of viruses have been discussed. Moreover, numerous globally developed aptasensors for the sensing of different types of viruses have been illustrated and explained in tabulated form.

Abstract
Food poisoning caused by microorganisms has caused widespread concern. Herein, a highly sensitive on-site screening test strip for the detection of different pathogenic microorganisms (Listeria monocytogenes and Staphylococcus aureus) was designed. In this analysis platform, colloidal gold-coupled vancomycin was used as a signal unit to label Gram-positive bacteria, and highly sensitive polyclonal antibodies were used as recognition molecules to capture these specific strains. Compared with the traditional dual-antibody sandwich model, this new type of antibiotic-pathogen-antibody sandwich model is low-cost and can simultaneously detect multiple microorganisms. Under optimal conditions, this strategy showed satisfactory sensitivity and a wide linear range (L. monocy and S. aure could be directly assayed within linear ranges of 5 × 104 to 107 and 5 × 102 to 107 CFU mL-1, and the visual detection limits were 105 and 103 CFU mL-1, respectively). The analytical performance and practicability of this sensor system have been further studied. This developed biosensor was applied to bacteria-contaminated water, milk and broth with satisfactory results. All of these attractive characteristics make the assay possess potential applications in food safety, medical diagnosis and environmental monitoring.

Bioactivity of Essential Oils for Mitigation of Listeria monocytogenes Isolated from Fresh Retail Chicken Meat. Foods 2021; 10:foods10123006. [PMID: 34945555 PMCID: PMC8701900 DOI: 10.3390/foods10123006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2021] [Revised: 11/19/2021] [Accepted: 11/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Listeria monocytogenes is one of the most severe foodborne pathogens found in several habitats. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the antilisterial activity of different essential oils (EOs) against multidrug-resistant (MDR) L. monocytogenes strains isolated from fresh chicken meat. Our results showed that the prevalence of L. monocytogenes in the examined samples was 48%. Seventy-eight isolates were identified as L. monocytogenes. Out of these, 64.1% were categorized as MDR and were categorized in 18 patterns with 50 MDR isolates. One isolate was selected randomly from each pattern to investigate their biofilm-forming ability, resistance, and virulence genes incidence. Out of 18 MDR isolates, 88.9% showed biofilm-forming ability. Moreover, the most prevalent resistance genes were ermB (72%), aadA (67%), penA (61%), and floR genes (61%). However, the most prevalent virulence genes were inlA (94.4%), prfA (88.9%), plcB (83.3%), and actaA (83.3%). The antilisterial activity of EOs showed that cinnamon bark oil (CBO) was the most effective antilisterial agent. CBO activity could be attributed to the bioactivity of cinnamaldehyde which effects cell viability by increasing the bacterial cell electrical conductivity, ion leakage, and salt tolerance capacity loss. Therefore, CBO could be an effective alternative natural agent for food safety applications.

Abstract
The interactions of compounds with DNA have been studied since the recognition of the role of nucleic acid in organisms. The design of molecules which specifically interact with DNA sequences allows for the control of the gene expression. Determining the type and strength of such interaction is an indispensable element of pharmaceutical studies. Cognition of the therapeutic action mechanisms is particularly important for designing new drugs. Owing to their sensitivity, simplicity, and low costs, electrochemical methods are increasingly used for this type of research. Compared to other techniques, they require a small number of samples and are characterized by a high reliability. These methods can provide information about the type of interaction and the binding strength, as well as the damage caused by biologically active molecules targeting the cellular DNA. This review paper summarizes the various electrochemical approaches used for the study of the interactions between pharmaceuticals and DNA. The main focus is on the papers from the last decade, with particular attention on the voltammetric techniques. The most preferred experimental approaches, the electrode materials and the new methods of modification are presented. The data on the detection ranges, the binding modes and the binding constant values of pharmaceuticals are summarized. Both the importance of the presented research and the importance of future prospects are discussed.
