A novel strategy for the quantify of emerging isomeric pollutants belonging to the dihydroxybenzene family for environmental sample monitoring by amperometric detection. Talanta 2024; 281:126818. [PMID: 39277935 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126818] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2024] [Revised: 08/16/2024] [Accepted: 09/04/2024] [Indexed: 09/17/2024]
Abstract
This study introduces an innovative approach for quantifying isomeric pollutants utilizing an amperometric sensor. The determination of the isomers hydroquinone and catechol is based on the use of a glassy carbon electrode modified with Cu@PtPd/C nanoparticles (Cu@PtPd/C/GCE) in core-shell form, showing significant electrocatalytic activity in the oxidation of the later compounds. The determination was carried out at two different potentials: one at which where only hydroquinone is oxidized, and another in which where both hydroquinone and catechol are oxidized. Using these potentials, two calibration curves were built, one for the quantification of hydroquinone and the other for both isomers. Subsequently, the quantification of catechol was performed using a strategy based on the calculation of a difference using the information collected in the first step. The experiments using hydrogen peroxide as a redox probe demonstrate a clear synergistic effect in the catalytic reduction of hydrogen peroxide at -0.100 V, when Pt, Pd and Cu are incorporated into the core-shell nanostructure. The best performance was achieved with Cu@PtPd/C/GCE 1.00 mg mL-1. For the selected sensor, the analytical parameters are very competitive compared to similar devices reported in recent years for hydroquinone and catechol, with comparable linearity ranges of 0.010-0.200 mmol L-1 (hydroquinone) and 0.005-0.500 mmol L-1 (catechol), low limits of detection (LODs) of 14.0 nmol L-1 (S/N = 3.3) and 1.75 nmol L-1 (S/N = 3.3) for hydroquinone and catechol. The resulting sensor platform has been successfully applied for the quantification of hydroquinone and catechol in river and tap water and could be a promising candidate for environmental monitoring and drinking water safety.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 252:118860.

Abstract
The application of antimony sulfide sensors, characterized by their exceptional stability and selectivity, is of emerging interest in detection research, and the integration of graphitized carbon materials is expected to further enhance their electrochemical performance. This study represents a pioneering effort in the synthesis of carbon-doped antimony sulfide materials through the pyrolysis of the mixture of microorganisms and their synthetic antimony sulfide. The prepared materials are subsequently applied to electrochemical sensors for monitoring the highly toxic compounds catechol (CC) and hydroquinone (HQ) in the environment. Via cyclic voltammetry (CV) and impedance testing, we concluded that the pyrolytic product at 700 °C (Sb-700) demonstrated the best electrochemical properties. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) revealed impressive separation when utilizing Sb-700/GCE for simultaneous detection of CC and HQ, exhibiting good linearity within the concentration range of 0.1-140 μM. The achieved sensitivities of 24.62 μA μM-1 cm-2 and 22.10 μA μM-1 cm-2 surpassed those of most CC and HQ electrochemical sensors. Meanwhile, the detection limits for CC and HQ were as low as 0.18 μM and 0.16 μM (S/N = 3), respectively. Additional tests confirmed the good selectivity, reproducibility, and long-term stability of Sb-700/GCE, which was effective in detecting CC and HQ in tap water and river water, with recovery rates of 100.7%-104.5% and 96.5%-101.4%, respectively. It provides a method that combines green microbial synthesis and simple pyrolysis for the preparation of electrode materials in CC and HQ electrochemical sensors, and also offers a new perspective for the application of microbial synthesized materials.

Abstract
The environmental hazards of microplastics have received widespread attention. However, the in-situ detection of microplastics, particularly in aquatic environments, has been challenged by the limitations of detection methods, the large-scale instruments, and small size. Herein, a photoelectrochemical sensor based on the protein corona-induced aggregation effect is designed for the detection of polystyrene microplastics. The sensor has advantages of high sensitivity, reproducibility, and detection capability. A linear detection range of 0.5-500 μg mL-1, a method detection limit of 0.06 μg mL-1, and a limit of quantification of 0.14 μg mL-1 are achieved. Furthermore, the relative standard deviations of intra-day and inter-day precision, ranging from 0.56% to 4.63% and 0.84%-3.36% are obtained. A digital multimeter was employed to construct a platform for the real-time detection in real water samples, streamlining the detection process and yielding clear results. We believe this sensor provides new insight for the in-situ real-time detection of microplastics and has broad applications for the analysis of microplastic pollution in aquatic environments.

Abstract
Among the existing nanosystems used in electrochemical sensing, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have attracted considerable attention owing to their intriguing chemical and physical properties such as good electrical conductivity, high electrocatalytic activity, and high surface-to-volume ratio. However, despite these useful characteristics, there are some issues due to their instability in solution that can give rise to aggregation phenomena and the use of hazardous chemicals in the most common synthetic procedures. With an aim to find a solution to these issues, recently, we prepared and characterized carbon dots (CDs), from olive solid wastes, and employed them as reducing and capping agents in photo-activated AuNP synthesis, thus creating CD-Au nanohybrids. These nanomaterials appear extremely stable in aqueous solutions at room temperature, are contemporary, and have been obtained using CDs, which are exclusively based on non-toxic elements, with an additional advantage of being generated from an otherwise waste material. In this paper, the synthesis and characterization of CD-Au nanohybrids are described, and the electrochemical experiments for hydroquinone detection are discussed. The results indicate that CD-Au acts as an efficient material for sensing hydroquinone, matching a wide range of interests in science from industrial processes to environmental pollution.

Eco-friendly electrochemical sensor for determination of conscious sedating drug "midazolam'' based on Au-NPs@Silica modified carbon paste electrode. Talanta 2024; 267:125238. [PMID: 37774450 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.125238] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 08/09/2023] [Accepted: 09/22/2023] [Indexed: 10/01/2023]
Abstract
Benzodiazepines (BZDs) are a group of drugs prescribed for their sedating effect. Their misuse and addictive properties stipulate different authorities for developing simple, fast and accurate analytical methods for instantaneous detection. Differential pulse voltammetric technique (DPV) was utilized for the selective assay of midazolam hydrochloride (MDZ) in the pure, parenteral dosage forms and plasma samples. A chemically modified carbon paste electrode (CPE) was implemented during the study. The method depended on the electroreduction of MDZ on the surface of the electrode over a potential range of 0.0 V to -1.6 V. The electrode was fabricated using silica nanoparticles (Si-NPs) which were incorporated into the composition of the CPE and used to enhance the electrode performance. Then, to enhance the sensitivity of the method, a chronoamperometric modification step was applied for depositing gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) on the carbon paste electrode surface. Modification with Au-NPs showed a higher reduction current peak for MDZ with well-defined peaks. Various parameters such as pH of the media and measurements scan rate were investigated and optimized to enhance the sensor sensitivity. The sensor showed a dynamic linear response over a concentration range of 4.0 × 10-7 M to 2.9 × 10-4 M of MDZ with a LOD of 2.24 × 10-8 M using 0.1 M acetate buffer (pH 5.6). The sensor was validated in accordance with the ICH guidelines regarding accuracy, precision and specificity for the selective assay of MDZ in the presence of excipients. A greenness evaluation was performed using three different assessment tools, namely, the "Green Analytical Procedure Index" (GAPI), the "Analytical Greenness metric" (AGREE) and the "Whiteness Analytical Chemistry tool" (WAC) using the RGB12 model.

Abstract
Herein, conductive polymer membrane with excellent performance was successfully fabricated by integrating carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and poly (trans-3-(3-pyridyl) acrylic acid) (PPAA) film. The drop-casting method was employed to coated MWCNTs on the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface, and PPAA was then electropolymerized onto the surface of the MWCNTs/GCE in order to form PPAA-MWCNTs membrane. This enables the verification of the excellent performances of proposed membrane by electrochemically determining catechol (CC) and hydroquinone (HQ) as the model. Cyclic voltammetry experiments showed that the proposed membrane exhibited an obvious electrocatalytic effect on CC and HQ, owing to the synergistic effect of PPAA and MWCNTs. Differential pulse voltammetry was adopted for simultaneous detection purposes, and an increased electrochemical responded to CC and HQ. A concentration increase was found in the range of 1.0 × 10-6 mol/L~1.0 × 10-4 mol/L, and it exhibited a good linear relationship with satisfactory detection limits of 3.17 × 10-7 mol/L for CC and 2.03 × 10-7 mol/L for HQ (S/N = 3). Additionally, this constructed membrane showed good reproducibility and stability. The final electrode was successfully applied to analyze CC and HQ in actual water samples, and it obtained robust recovery for CC with 95.2% and 98.5%, and for HQ with 97.0% and 97.3%. Overall, the constructed membrane can potentially be a good candidate for constructing electrochemical sensors in environmental analysis.

Abstract
Electrochemical sensors have become increasingly relevant in fields such as medicine, environmental monitoring, and industrial process control. Selectivity, specificity, sensitivity, signal reproducibility, and robustness are among the most important challenges for their development, especially when the target compound is present in low concentrations or in complex analytical matrices. In this context, electrode modification with Mesoporous Thin Films (MTFs) has aroused great interest in the past years. MTFs present high surface area, uniform pore distribution, and tunable pore size. Furthermore, they offer a wide variety of electrochemical signal modulation possibilities through molecular sieving, electrostatic or steric exclusion, and preconcentration effects which are due to mesopore confinement and surface functionalization. In order to fully exploit these advantages, it is central to develop reproducible routes for sensitive, selective, and robust MTF-modified electrodes. In addition, it is necessary to understand the complex mass and charge transport processes that take place through the film (particularly in the mesopores, pore surfaces, and interfaces) and on the electrode in order to design future intelligent and adaptive sensors. We present here an overview of MTFs applied to electrochemical sensing, in which we address their fabrication methods and the transport processes that are critical to the electrode response. We also summarize the current applications in biosensing and electroanalysis, as well as the challenges and opportunities brought by integrating MTF synthesis with electrode microfabrication, which is critical when moving from laboratory work to in situ sensing in the field of interest.

Abstract
Metal nanostructures with high atom utilization, abundant active sites, and special electron structures should be beneficial to the electrochemical monitoring of hydroquinone (HQ), a highly toxic environmental pollutant. However, traditional nanostructures, especially non-noble metals generally suffer from severe aggregation, or consist of a mixture of nanoparticles and nanoclusters, resulting in low detection sensitivity. Herein, we precisely control the size of Mo-based nanostructures spanning four scales (viz. Mo2C nanoparticles, Mo2C nanodots, Mo nanoclusters and Mo single atoms) anchored on N, P, O co-doped carbon support. The detection sensitivity of four samples toward the HQ follows the orders of Mo single atoms>Mo2C nanodots>Mo nanoclusters>Mo2C nanoparticles. The catalytic ability of four catalysts is investigated, also showing the same order. The supported Mo single atoms show superior electro-sensing performance for HQ with wide linear range (0.02-200 μM) and low detection limit (0.005 μM), surpassing most previously reported catalysts. Moreover, the coexistence of dihydroxybenzene isomers of catechol (CC) and resorcinol (RC) does not interfere with the detection of HQ on the Mo single-atom sensor. This work opens up a polyoxometalate-based confinement pyrolysis approach to constructing ultrafine metal-based nanostructures spanning multiple-scales for efficient electrochemical applications.

Abstract
The demand and importance of fairness creams as a major cosmetic have increased significantly in recent years. However, some of these cosmetics contain heavy metals, hydroquinone and microorganism that can cause various health problems. Therefore, the aim of this study is to determine and examine the concentration of metals (i.e. Cd, Pb, Cr, Ni, Zn, Hg), hydroquinone and microorganisms in nine different fairness creams produced by local and international brands. The health risk assessment of the tested substances for consumers was accessed through systemic exposure dosage (SED), margin of safety (MoS), lifetime cancer risk (LCR), hazard quotient (HQ) and hazard index (HI). The concentration of Zn and Hg were found the highest and measured in the range of 17.82-138.06 mg.kg-1 and 2.3-141 mg.kg-1, respectively. The concentrations of other metals were determined as 0.06-0.67 mg.kg-1 of Cd, 0.43-1.55 mg.kg-1 of Cr, 0.14-1.43 mg.kg-1 of Ni and 0.3-1.34 mg.kg-1 of Pb. HPLC results showed a significant presence of hydroquinone in the range of 0.12-7.2%. The total viable counts of cosmetic samples showed the substantial presence of microorganisms, and 44% of the collected samples surpassed the permissible limit of 100 cfu/g recommended by European Union. Many of the collected samples exceeded the MoS, HQ and HI tolerance limits. However, the LCR value in all samples was significantly higher than the acceptable limit. Therefore, it is advised to avoid overuse of these products in order to ensure human safety and reduce the risks to skin health.

Abstract
It is quite important to develop sensitive, simple, and convenient methods for the simultaneous determination of Hydroquinone (HQ) and Catechol (CC) due to their wide existence, the difficulty of degradation, and the high toxicity. Herein, Cu-TCPP nanosheets were prepared in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) through the solvent exfoliation method. The morphology and electrochemical performance of Cu-TCPP were characterized, revealing its stacked sheet structure with abundant pores, a fast electron transfer ability, and a large electrode active area. Using Cu-TCPP nanosheets as the sensitive material to modify the glassy carbon electrodes (Cu-TCPP/GCEs), it was found that they had an obvious enhancement effect on the electrochemical oxidation currents of HQ and CC. The signal enhancement mechanism was explored. The Cu-TCPP nanosheets not only enhanced the accumulation abilities of HQ and CC, but also improved their apparent catalytic rate, displaying high sensitivity for HQ and CC. The values of the detection limit were calculated to be 3.4 and 2.3 nM for HQ and CC. A satisfactory recovery was obtained when this method was used in measuring HQ and CC in the water samples.

Abstract
It is well known that, surfactants provide a neutral, positive and/or negative charge on the electrode surface by forming a monolayer, which in turn affects the charge transfer and redox potential during the electroanalysis process. However, the molecular level understanding of these surfactant-modified electrodes is worth investigating because the interaction of the analyte with the electrode surface is still unclear. In this report, we used quantum chemical models based on computational density functional theory (DFT) to investigate the polysorbate 80 structure as well as the locations of energy levels and electron transfer sites. Later, the bare carbon paste electrode (bare/CPE) was modified with polysorbate 80 and used to resolve the overlapped oxidation signals of dihydroxy benzene isomers. The m/n values obtained at polysorbate/CPE was approximately equal to 1, signifying the transfer of same number of protons and electrons. Moreover, the analytical applicability of the modified electrode for the determination of catechol (CC) and hydroquinone (HQ) in tap water samples gave an acceptable recovery result. Overall, the application of DFT to understand the molecular level interaction of modifiers for sensing applications laid a new foundation for fabricating electrochemical sensors.

Abstract
Hydroquinone (HQ) and catechol (CC) are the two major dihydroxybenzene isomers, are considered one of the toxic pollutants in wastewater, which often coexisted and impede each other during sample identification. For practical analysis and simultaneous detection of HQ and CC in wastewater, we fabricate a hybrid electrochemical sensor with electrospun one-dimensional (1D) MnMoO4 nanofibers coupled with a few-layered exfoliated two-dimensional (2D) MXene. The facilitated abundant defective edges of 1D MnMoO4 and 2D MXene nanoarchitecture accelerated the effect of synergistic signal amplification and exhibited high electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidation of hydroquinone and catechol. MnMoO4-MXene-GCE showed oxidation potentials of 0.102 V and 0.203 V for hydroquinone and catechol, respectively. It revealed the distinguished and simultaneous detection range of 0.101 V with a strong anodic peak current. Noteworthily, the proposed 1D-2D hybridized MnMoO4-MXene-GCE sensor exhibited a wide linear response from 5 nM to 65 nM for hydroquinone and catechol. Moreover, it showed a low detection limit of 0.26 nM and 0.30 nM for HQ and CC with high stability, respectively. The feasible 1D-2D MnMoO4-MXene nanocomposite-based biosensor effectively detected hydroquinone and catechol in hazardous water pollutants using the differential pulse voltammetric technique with recovery values.

Abstract
A reduced graphene oxide–polydopamine–carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotube (RGO–PDA–cMWCNT) nanocomposite was fabricated via a facile, one-pot procedure and was characterized by a variety of techniques. A novel electrochemical sensor based on RGO–PDA–cMWCNT was constructed to determine hydroquinone (HQ) and catechol (CT) simultaneously. This newly prepared nanocomposite shows excellent electrocatalytic efficacy in the electrode reaction of the two isomers. Specifically, the peak-to-peak potential difference between the two dihydroxybenzenes is 115 mV for oxidation, which is obviously larger than similar electrochemical sensors. The established method displays a wide linear range from 0.5 to 5000 μM with a detection limit (S/N = 3) of 0.066 μM for HQ and 0.073 μM for CT. In addition, this electrochemical approach has been tested to measure the two dihydroxybenzenes in real samples and satisfactory results were recorded. A novel reduced graphene oxide–polydopamine–carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotube nanocomposite (RGO–PDA–cMWCNT) was fabricated for the sensitive and simultaneous determination of hydroquinone (HQ) and catechol (CT).![]()

Abstract
Hydroquinone (HDQ) is a natural depigmenting agent, which is commonly used in skin-toning preparations. The safety and greenness of analytical methods of HDQ quantification were not considered in previous literature. Therefore, a highly sensitive and ecologically greener reversed-phase high-performance thin-layer chromatography (RP-HPTLC)-based assay was established for HDQ estimation in four different commercial whitening creams (CWCs). The binary ethanol–water (60:40, v·v−1) mixture was utilized as the green solvent system. The estimation of HDQ was carried out at 291 nm. The present RP-HPTLC-based assay was linear in the 20–2400 ng band−1 range. The present analytical method was highly sensitive based on the detection and quantification data. The other validation parameters, such as accuracy, precision, and robustness, were also suitable for the determination of HDQ. Maximum HDQ quantities were obtained in CWC A (1.23% w·w−1) followed by CWC C (0.81% w·w−1), CWC D (0.43% w·w−1), and CWC B (0.37% w·w−1). The analytical GREEnness (AGREE) score for the present analytical method was estimated as 0.91, indicating the excellent greener characteristics of the present RP-HPTLC assay. These results suggest that the present analytical method is highly sensitive and ecologically sustainable for the quantitation of HDQ in its commercial formulations.

Abstract
Herein, single-atom niobium-doped boron-carbon-nitrogen nanotubes (SANb-BCN) were synthesized and utilized to fabricate an electrochemical sensor for the detection of nitrobenzene (NB), an environmental pollutant. SANb-BCN were characterized through scanning transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and Raman spectroscopy. The Nb-BNC material modified on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) showed an excellent electrochemical response behavior toward NB. The SANb-BCN-modified GCE (SANb-BCN/GCE) gave rise to a prominent NB reduction peak at -0.6 V, which was positively shifted by 120 mV from the NB reduction peak of the bare GCE. Furthermore, the NB peak current (55.74 μA) obtained using SANb-BCN/GCE was nearly 42-fold higher than that using the bare GCE (1.32 μA), indicating that SANb-BCN/GCE is a highly sensitive electrochemical sensor for NB. An ultralow limit of detection (0.70 μM, S/N = 3) was also achieved. Furthermore, the SANb-BCN/GCE sensor was found to possess favorable anti-interference ability during NB detection; thus, the presence of various organic and inorganic coexisting species, including Mg2+, Cr6+, Cu2+, K+, Ca2+, NH4+, Cd2+, urea, 1-bromo-4-nitrobenzene, 3-hydroxybenzoic, terephthalic acid, 1-iodo-4-nitrobenzene, and toluene, minimally affected the NB detection signal. Notably, the SANb-BNC sensor material exhibited high sensitivity and specificity toward detection of NB in environmental samples. Thus, the use of the proposed sensor will serve as an effective alternative method for the identification and treatment of pollutants.

Abstract
In this study, Cu-MOF/rGO/CuO/α-MnO2 nanocomposites have been fabricated by a one-step hydrothermal method and used in the voltammetric detection of resorcinol (RS). The poor conductivity of MOFs in the field of electrochemical sensing is still a major challenge. A series of Cu-MOF/rGO/CuO/α-MnO2 nanocomposites have been synthesized with varying fractions of rGO and with a fixed amount of α-MnO2 via a facile method. These nanocomposites are well characterized using some sophisticated characterization techniques. The as-prepared nanohybrids have strongly promoted the redox reactions at the electrode surface due to their synergistic effects of improved conductivity, high electrocatalytic activity, an enlarged specific surface area, and a plethora of nanoscale level interfacial collaborations. The electrode modified with Cu-MOF/rGO/CuO/α-MnO2 has revealed superior electrochemical properties demonstrating linear differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) responses from a 0.2 to 22 μM RS concentration range (R2 = 0.999). The overall results of this sensing podium have shown excellent stability, good recovery, and a low detection limit of 0.2 μM. With excellent sensing performance achieved, the practicability of the sensor has been evaluated to detect RS in commercial hair color samples as well as in tap water and river water samples. Therefore, we envision that our hybrid nanostructures synthesized by the structural integration strategy will open new horizons in material synthesis and biosensing platforms.

Abstract
To develop an electrochemical sensor for electroactive molecules, the choice and prediction of redox reactive sites of the modifier play a critical role in establishing the sensing mediating mechanism. Therefore, to understand the mediating mechanism of the modifier, we used advanced density functional theory (DFT)-based quantum chemical modeling. A carbon paste electrode (CPE) was modified with electropolymerization of brilliant blue, later employed for the detection of paracetamol (PA) and folic acid (FA). PA is an analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antipyretic prescription commonly used in medical fields, and overdose or prolonged use may harm the liver and kidney. The deficiency of FA associated with neural tube defects (NTDs) and therefore the quantification of FA are very essential to prevent the problems associated with congenital deformities of the spinal column, skull and brain of the fetus in pregnant women. Hence, an electrochemical sensor based on a polymerized brilliant blue-modified carbon paste working electrode (BRB/CPE) was fabricated for the quantification of PA and FA in physiological pH. The real analytical applicability of the proposed sensor was judged by employing it in analysis of a pharmaceutical sample, and good recovery results were obtained. The potential excipients do not have a significant contribution to the electro-oxidation of PA at BRB/CPE, which makes it a promising electrochemical sensing platform. The real analytical applicability of the proposed method is valid for pharmaceutical analysis in the presence of possible excipients. The prediction of redox reactive sites of the modifier by advanced quantum chemical modeling-based DFT may lay a new foundation for researchers to establish the modifier–analyte interaction mechanisms.

Tailoring molecular permeability of vertically-ordered mesoporous silica-nanochannel films on graphene for selectively enhanced determination of dihydroxybenzene isomers in environmental water samples. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2021; 410:124636.

Abstract
Herein we demonstrate a simple and rapid electrochemical method for selectively enhanced determination of catechol (CC) or hydroquinone (HQ) isomers in environmental water samples by tailoring the molecular permeability of vertically-ordered mesoporous silica-nanochannel films on electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (VMSF/ErGO). Such VMSF/ErGO composite film was fabricated on the gold electrode (AuE) surface using electrochemically assisted self-assembly approach. The as-prepared electrodes with surfactant micelles (SM) template inside silica nanochannels, designed as SM/VMSF/ErGO/AuE, possess hydrophobic hydrocarbon cores and show preferential response to CC via hydrophobic effect. After removing SM from silica nanochannels, the obtained VMSF/ErGO/AuE displays more sensitive response to HQ, which is due to the hydrogen bond effect between the silanol groups of silica walls and HQ. Given the potential-resolved and high electrocatalytic ability of ErGO, and molecular permeability and anti-fouling ability of VMSF, these two present sensors could detect CC and HQ in lake water with a low limit of detection (18 nM for CC and 16 nM for HQ), and a high sensitivity (0.33 μA/μM for CC and 0.37 μA/μM for HQ), without complicated sample pretreatment. Moreover, the proposed sensors provide a convenient, rapid and economic way for direct analysis of environmental water samples, exhibiting excellent long-term stability.

Abstract
Vitamin D has been identified as an essential biomarker for various diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, and cardiovascular diseases. Recently, many reports have demonstrated a potential link between vitamin D and systemic infections, including coronavirus disease 2019. The villi of the small intestine increase the surface area of the intestinal walls, demonstrating exceptionally efficient absorption of nutrients in the lumen and adding digestive secretions. In this study, based on the villi structure, we developed a bio-inspired silver nanovilli-based sandwich-type surface enhanced Raman scattering aptasensor for the ultrasensitive and selective detection of 25-hydroxy vitamin D3. The densely packed nanovilli structure enhanced the Raman signal, forming hotspots owing to its large surface area. Using experiments and electromagnetic simulations, we optimized the nanovilli structure as a SERS sensor. The sandwich-type aptasensor was designed using an aptamer and 4-Phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione-methylene blue complex. The nanovilli-based aptasensor could sensitively detect various concentrations of 25-hydroxy vitamin D3, ranging from those found in deficient to excess conditions. The detection limit of the nanovilli-based sandwich-type aptasensor for 25-hydroxy vitamin D3 was 0.001 ng/mL, which is much lower than the deficiency concentration, and was detectable even in the human serum. In addition, our proposed sensor exhibited good repeatability (17.76%) and reproducibility (7.47%). Moreover, the nanovilli-based sandwich-type SERS aptasensor could selectively distinguish 25-hydroxy vitamin D3 from other vitamins. The silver nanovilli-based sandwich-type surface enhanced Raman scattering aptasensor opens a new avenue for the development of a bio-inspired vitamin-sensing platform.

Abstract
The simultaneous determination of hydroquinone and catechol was conducted in aqueous and real samples by means of differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) using a glassy carbon electrode modified with Gold Nanoparticles (AuNP) and functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes by drop coating. A good response was obtained in the simultaneous determination of both isomers through standard addition to samples prepared with analytical grade water and multivariate calibration by partial least squares (PLS) in winery wastewater fortified with HQ and CT from 4.0 to 150.00 µM. A sensitivity of 0.154 µA µM−1 and 0.107 µA µM−1, and detection limits of 4.3 and 3.9 µM were found for hydroquinone and catechol, respectively. We verified the reliability of the developed method by simultaneously screening analytes in spiked tap water and industrial wastewater, achieving recoveries over 80%. In addition, this paper demonstrates the applicability of chemometric tools for the simultaneous quantification of both isomers in real matrices, obtaining prediction errors of lower than 10% in fortified wastewater.

Abstract
Non-enzymatic electrochemical detection of catechol (CC) and hydroquinone (HQ), the xenobiotic pollutants, was carried out at the surface of novel carbon nanocoils/zinc-tetraphenylporphyrin (CNCs/Zn-TPP) nanocomposite supported on glassy carbon electrode. The synergistic effect of chemoresponsive activity of Zn-TPP and a large surface area and electron transfer ability of CNCs lead to efficient detection of CC and HQ. The nanocomposite was characterized by using FT-IR, UV/vis. spectrophotometer, SEM and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were used for the electrochemical studies. CNCs/Zn-TPP/GCE nanosensor displayed a limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ) and sensitivity for catechol as 0.9 µM, 3.1 µM and 0.48 µA µM-1 cm-2, respectively in a concentration range of 25-1500 µM. Similarly, a linear trend in the concentration of hydroquinone detection was observed between 25 and 1500 µM with an LOD, LOQ and sensitivity of 1.5 µM, 5.1 µM and 0.35 µA µM-1 cm-2, respectively. DPV of binary mixture pictured well resolved peaks with anodic peak potential difference, ∆Epa(CC-HQ), of 110 mV showing efficient sensing of CC and HQ. The developed nanosensor exhibits stability for up to 30 days, better selectivity and good repeatability for eight measurements (4.5% for CC and 5.4% for HQ).

Abstract
A mildly one-pot method is developed for the synthesis of quasi-networked Au1.5Pt1Co1 ternary alloy nanoparticles (TANPs) at room temperature through the co-reduction of AuCl4-, PtCl6- and Co2+ with hydrazine hydrate. Characterizations of XRD, XPS, HRTEM, EDS and SAED successfully reveal the crystal structure, composition, valence and morphology of Au1.5Pt1Co1 TANPs, respectively. The glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified by Au1.5Pt1Co1 TANPs with good dispersion and multi-density surface defects occupies the optimal electrochemical active surface area (ECSA). After the coated poly-L-cysteine (P-L-Cys) film on the Au1.5Pt1Co1/GCE surface, the morphology, element mapping and surface roughness of the P-L-Cys/Au1.5Pt1Co1/GCE are investigated via FESEM and AFM to verify continuous electrode modification processes. The electrochemical behaviors of the composite electrode for hydroquinone (HQ) are evaluated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) with interfacial properties of adsorption and diffusion. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) for HQ electrochemical sensing at 0.10 V (vs. SCE) exhibits two linear response ranges from 0.1 to 30 and 30-200 μM, respectively. A low detection limit (S/N = 3) of 0.045 μM is obtained with a sensitivity of 4.247 μA μM-1·cm-2. The resulting P-L-Cys/Au1.5Pt1Co1/GCE also presents ascendant selectivity, repeatability, reproducibility and stability. In addition, the established method is applied to the assessment of the HQ level in real water samples (mineral water, tap water and lake water) with the satisfactory results of spiked recoveries. The sensor may become a promising tool for the trace analysis of the electroactive substance in food or environmental samples.

Abstract
A new electrochemical sensor for hydroquinone (HQ) was prepared. The electrochemical sensor was modified by electrodeposition and electrochemical polymerization to modify nanometer cobalt (nano-Co) and poly-l-glutamic acid (poly-l-glu) on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). Then, the electrochemical behavior of hydroquinone on the electrochemical sensor was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The experimental conditions were optimized from the aspects of electrolyte type, concentration, acidity, enrichment time and scanning speed. The experimental results showed that under optimized conditions the oxidation peak current has a good linear relationship with the concentration of hydroquinone in the range of 3.85 × 10−6 to 1.30 × 10−3 mol L−1 (R2 = 0.9998). Moreover, there was a low detection limit of 4.97 × 10−7 mol L−1. When the sensor was used for the analysis of hydroquinone in water samples, the recoveries with satisfactory results were in the range of 97.2–102.6%. A new electrochemical sensor for hydroquinone (HQ) was prepared.![]()
