Abstract
Antibiotics belongs to a class of pharmaceutical compounds widely used due to their effectiveness against bacterial infections. However, if consumed or inappropriately disposed of in the environment can results in environmental and public health problems, because they are considered emerging contaminants and their residues represent damage, whether in the long or short term, to different terrestrial ecosystems, in addition to bringing potential risks to agricultural sectors, such as livestock and fish farming. For this, the development of analytical methods for low-concentration detection and identification of antibiotics in natural waters, wastewaters, soil, foods, and biological fluids is necessary. This review shows the applicability of square wave voltammetry for the analytical determination of antibiotics from different chemical classes and covers a variety of samples and working electrodes that are used as voltammetric sensors. The review involved the analysis of scientific publications from the Science Direct® and Scopus® databases, with scientific manuscripts covering the period between January 2012 and May 2023. Various manuscripts were discussed indicating the applicability of square wave voltammetry in antibiotics detection in urine, blood, natural waters, milk, among other complex samples.

Abstract
Fluoroquinolones (FQs) are one of the most important types of antibiotics in the clinical, poultry, and aquaculture industries, and their monitoring is required as the abuse has led to severe issues, such as antibiotic residues and antimicrobial resistance. In this study, we report a voltammetric electronic tongue (ET) for the simultaneous determination of ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, and moxifloxacin in both pharmaceutical and biological samples. The ET comprises four sensors modified with three different customized molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) and a nonimprinted polymer integrated with Au nanoparticle-decorated multiwall carbon nanotubes (Au-fMWCNTs). MWCNTs were first functionalized to serve as a supporting substrate, while the anchored Au nanoparticles acted as a catalyst. Subsequently, MIP films were obtained by electropolymerization of pyrrole in the presence of the different target FQs. The sensors' morphology was characterized by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy, while the modification process was followed electrochemically step by step employing [Fe(CN)6]3-/4- as the redox probe. Under the optimal conditions, the MIP(FQs)@Au-fMWCNT sensors exhibited different responses, limits of detection of ca. 1 μM, and a wide detection range up to 300 μM for the three FQs. Lastly, the developed ET presents satisfactory agreement between the expected and obtained values when used for the simultaneous determination of mixtures of the three FQs (R2 ≥0.960, testing subset), which was also applied to the analysis of FQs in commercial pharmaceuticals and spiked human urine samples.

Abstract
In this paper, novel green HPLC and HPTLC chromatographic methods were developed for the concurrent determination of moxifloxacin, levofloxacin, and gemifloxacin in bulk and pharmaceutical products. The green HPLC method was used on Thermo C18 (4.6 × 250 mm, 5 µm). By mixing ethanol and 20 mM sodium dihydrogen phosphate dihydrate (pH 5) in a ratio of 25:75, v/v, the mobile phase was created using isocratic elution. The flow rate was 1 mLmin−1. The studied antibiotics were separated well within 9.5 min. The green HPTLC method was used on coated HPTLC aluminum sheets with Silica gel 60 F254 using a mobile phase mixture of water: acetone: ammonia (8:1:1, v/v/v). Compact and well-resolved peaks were obtained under chamber-saturation circumstances for the standard fluoroquinolone antibiotics. Both methods were optimized individually, validated by ICH, and assessed using the Green analytical procedure index (GAPI). The methods were applied to pharmaceutical products and compared with the published methods for the determination of each of these antibiotics individually, using Student’s t-test. They can be used by quality-control laboratories in pharmaceutical factories as sensitive eco-friendly methods for the analysis of these drugs and for the detection of cross-contamination during manufacturing processes.

Abstract
Anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV) is a powerful electrochemical analytical technique that allows for the detection and quantification of a variety of metal ion species at very low concentrations in aqueous media. While early, traditional ASV measurements relied on macroscopic electrodes like Hg drop electrodes to provide surfaces suitable for plating/stripping, more recent work on the technique has replaced these electrodes with thin film metal electrodes generated in situ. Such electrodes are plated alongside the analyte species onto the surface of a primary electrode, producing a composite metal electrode from which the analyte(s) can then be stripped, identified, and quantified. In this minireview, we will explore the development and use of these unique electrodes in a variety of different applications. A number of metals (e.g., Hg, Bi, Sn, etc.) have shown promise as thin film ASV electrodes in both acidic and alkaline media, and frequently multiple metals in addition to the analyte of interest are deposited together to optimize the plating/stripping behavior, improving sensitivity. Due to the relatively simple nature of the measurement and its suitability for a wide range of pH, it has been used broadly: To measure toxic metals in the environment, characterize battery materials, and enable biological assays, among other applications. We will discuss these applications in greater detail, as well as provide perspective on future development and uses of these thin film electrodes in ASV measurements.

Abstract
We conducted the first complete toxicological study of six quinolones, including acute, chronic, and recovery assays on Daphnia magna and Ceriodaphnia dubia. The assayed quinolones were second-generation ciprofloxacin (CIP), norfloxacin (NOR), enrofloxacin (ENR), and marbofloxacin (MAR); third-generation levofloxacin (LEV), and fourth-generation moxifloxacin (MOX). The median lethal concentrations (LC50) obtained for both species by acute ecotoxicity assay ranged from 14 to 73 mg L-1 and from 3 to 23 mg L-1 at 48 and 72 h, respectively; while the median effective concentration (EC50) ranged from 4 to 28 mg L-1 in the chronic ecotoxicity assays. C. dubia surviving the chronic exposure assay was monitored in recovery assays free of quinolones. A fluorometric method was used to confirm that there was no significant loss of quinolone concentrations during the acute assays. We also used this method to show that quinolone concentrations fell below 80% of the nominal value after 9-11 d if exposure solutions were not renewed. This study on the ecotoxicological and chemical behavior of quinolones in two cladoceran species fills a data gap about how these emerging contaminants affect nontarget aquatic organisms and how long they persist in the environment.

Graphene oxide composites for magnetic solid-phase extraction of twelve quinolones in water samples followed by MALDI-TOF MS. Anal Bioanal Chem 2019; 411:7039-7049.

Abstract
Antibiotic compounds in natural waters are normally present at low concentrations. In this paper, an easy and highly sensitive screening method using graphene oxide-functionalized magnetic composites (GO@NH2@Fe3O4) combined with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) was established for twelve quinolone antibiotics. GO@NH2@Fe3O4 composites were utilized as adsorbents for magnetic solid-phase extraction. This method combines the advantages of magnetic solid-phase extraction and MALDI-TOF MS, which allows for fast detection of quinolones at low concentrations. To improve absorption efficiency, the following parameters were individually optimized: sample acidity, extraction time, amount of adsorbent used, eluent used, and desorption time. Under the optimum conditions, the established method gave a low detection limit of 0.010 mg/L and allowed the high-throughput screening of twelve quinolone antibiotics (enoxacin, norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin, pefloxacin, fleroxacin, gatifloxacin, enrofloxacin, levofloxacin, sparfloxacin, danofloxacin, difloxacin, and lomefloxacin). The proposed method, having an easily prepared sorbent with a high affinity for quinolones and a convenient, high-throughput detection step, has been shown to have merit for the detection of antibiotics in water samples.

Abstract
One major concern associated with food safety is related to residual effects of antibiotics that are widely used to treat animals and result in antimicrobial resistance. Among different groups of antibiotic, the use of quinolones in livestock is of major concern due to the significance of these antimicrobial drugs for the treatment of a range of infectious diseases in humans. Therefore, it is desirable to develop reliable methods for the rapid, sensitive, and on-site detection of quinolone residue levels in animal-derived foods to ensure food safety. Sensors and biosensors are promising future platforms for rapid and on-site monitoring of antibiotic residues. In this review, we focus on recent advancements and modern approaches in quinolone sensors and biosensors.
