Facile Combination of Bismuth Vanadate with Nickel Tellurium Oxide for Efficient Photoelectrochemical Catalysis of Water Oxidation Reactions. ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES 2024; 16:49249-49261. [PMID: 39235429 PMCID: PMC11420875 DOI: 10.1021/acsami.4c07117] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2024] [Revised: 08/02/2024] [Accepted: 08/06/2024] [Indexed: 09/06/2024]
Abstract
Bismuth vanadate (BVO) having suitable band edges is one of the effective photocatalysts for water oxidation, which is the rate-determining step in the water splitting process. Incorporating cocatalysts can reduce activation energy, create hole sinks, and improve photocatalytic ability of BVO. In this work, the visible light active nickel tellurium oxide (NTO) is used as the cocatalyst on the BVO photoanode to improve photocatalytic properties. Different NTO amounts are deposited on the BVO to balance optical and electrical contributions. Higher visible light absorbance and effective charge cascades are developed in the NTO and BVO composite (NTO/BVO). The highest photocurrent density of 6.05 mA/cm2 at 1.23 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode (VRHE) and the largest applied bias photon-to-current efficiency (ABPE) of 2.13% are achieved for NTO/BVO, while BVO shows a photocurrent density of 4.19 mA/cm2 at 1.23 VRHE and ABPE of 1.54%. Excellent long-term stability under light illumination is obtained for NTO/BVO with photocurrent retention of 91.31% after 10,000 s. The photoelectrochemical catalytic mechanism of NTO/BVO is also proposed based on measured band structures and possible interactions between NTO and BVO. This work has depicted a novel cocatalytic BVO system with a new photocharging material and successfully achieves high photocurrent densities for catalyzing water oxidation.

Abstract
Considering the increasing concern for food safety, electrochemical methods for detecting specific ingredients in the food are currently the most efficient method due to their low cost, fast response signal, high sensitivity, and ease of use. The detection efficiency of electrochemical sensors is determined by the electrode materials' electrochemical characteristics. Among them, three-dimensional (3D) electrodes have unique advantages in electronic transfer, adsorption capacity and exposure of active sites for energy storage, novel materials, and electrochemical sensing. Therefore, this review begins by outlining the benefits and drawbacks of 3D electrodes compared to other materials before going into more detail about how 3D materials are synthesized. Next, different types of 3D electrodes are outlined together with common modification techniques for enhancing electrochemical performance. After this, a demonstration of 3D electrochemical sensors for food safety applications, such as detecting components, additives, emerging pollutants, and bacteria in food, was given. Finally, improvement measures and development directions of electrodes with 3D electrochemical sensors are discussed. We think that this review will help with the creation of new 3D electrodes and offer fresh perspectives on how to achieve extremely sensitive electrochemical detection in the area of food safety.

Abstract
Although all countries have been controlling the excessive use of pesticides, incidents of pesticide residues still existed. Electrochemical biosensors are extensively applied detection techniques to monitor pesticides with the help of different types of biorecognition components mainly including, antibodies, aptamers, enzymes (i.e., acetylcholinesterase, organophosphorus hydrolase, etc.), and synthetic molecularly imprinted polymers. Besides, the electrode materials mainly affected the sensitivity of electrochemical biosensors. Metallic nanomaterials with various structures and excellent electrical conductivity were desirable choice to construct electrochemical platforms to achieve the detection with high sensitivity and good specificity toward the target. This work reviewed the developed metallic materials including monometallic nanoparticles, bimetallic nanomaterials, metal atoms, metal oxides, metal molybdates, metal-organic frameworks, MXene, etc. Integration of recognition elements endowed the electrode materials with higher specificity toward the target pesticide. Besides, future challenges of metallic nanomaterials-based electrochemical biosensors for the detection of pesticides are also discussed and described.

Ultrasensitive detection of ineradicable and harmful antibiotic chloramphenicol residue in soil, water, and food samples. Anal Chim Acta 2023; 1243:340841. [PMID: 36697183 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2023.340841] [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: 08/30/2022] [Revised: 01/10/2023] [Accepted: 01/12/2023] [Indexed: 01/14/2023]
Abstract
Chloramphenicol (CAP) is a harmful antibiotic that inevitably enters our food chain through natural or manmade means. Its ineradicable residue pollutes soils and water, accumulates in plants and animal products, and eventually affects human health. An ultrasensitive method for detecting and monitoring CAP is therefore urgently required. Herein, we report an ultrafast extraction and amperometry detection method based on a graphite-sulfate-modified electrode for detecting CAP in soil, water, and food samples. The graphite sulfate is prepared by the oxidation method and its structural properties are comprehensively investigated. The developed sensor electrode showed a wider linear range of 0.3-32.0 μg kg-1 and an ultralow detection limit of 0.1 μg kg-1, both of which meet the European Commission Reg 1871/2019 reference points for action. The method works well with both meat and plant samples, achieving CAP recoveries ranging from 90.8 to 99.1% even at low concentrations. Moreover, the sensor electrode shows more than 95% selectivity toward CAP detection in the soil, water, and food matrices. The developed method exhibits good repeatability and reproducibility in the analysis of real samples.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 437:129415. [PMID: 35752051 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.129415] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2022] [Revised: 06/03/2022] [Accepted: 06/16/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
The growing population and global food demands have encouraged the use of pesticides to increase agricultural yields; however, the irrational use of pesticides threatens human health and the environment. Carbaryl (CRBL) is the most widespread insecticide and severely affects soil, water systems, and human health. Thus, it is crucial to monitor CRBL residues in the environment and vegetable samples. This study reports the rapid and sensitive electrochemical detection of CRBL based on a pyrochlore-type lanthanum tin oxide (LSO) nanoparticles (NPs)-modified screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE). A low-temperature hydrothermal method was employed to prepare the LSO NPs. The structural properties of the LSO NPs were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Raman, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses. The LSO NPs/SPCE demonstrated good electroanalytical performance for CRBL detection, with a low detection limit of 0.4 nM (0.08 µg/L) and a sensitivity of 1.05 µA/(µM cm2). Furthermore, the LSO NPs/SPCE exhibited high selectivity among highly interfering carbamate and organophosphorus pesticides, which share similar mechanisms of action. Additionally, the LSO NPs/SPCE sensor achieved > 90% recovery for the detection of CRBL in soil, water, and vegetable samples, thus verifying its suitability for the rapid detection of CRBL.
