Abstract
This manuscript describes the development of a novel liquid phase microextraction (LPME) method for the extraction and determination of Zn (II), Fe (II), Pb (II), and Cd (II) in various infant/baby food and supplements products. The method is based on vortex-assisted extraction combined with a switchable-hydrophilicity solvent (SHS) sample preparation. The SHS, which undergoes reversible phase changes triggered by pH change, enables selective extraction and easy phase separation. A flame atomic absorption spectroscopy was used in the final determination step. Optimization studies revealed, that the optimal pH of the sample solution (after digestion) during analytes extraction is 5.5. A l-proline is added to the sample (375 mM) to ensure the complexation of the target metal cations. After the complexation step, 750 µL of SHS - a N, N-Dimethylcyclohexylamine along with 0.9 mL of 2 M of acetic acid solution is added (hydrophilicity switch-on stage) and mixed manually to obtain a homogeneous solution. In the last stage, 0.45 mL of 10 M NaOH solution (hydrophilicity switch-off stage) is added to the sample solution and a vortex for 100 s is applied to ensure the effective extraction and separation of the complex containing the analytes. At this stage, a cloudy solution is immediately obtained. Finally, the effective phase separation is obtained at the centrifugation step (4000 rpm for 2 mins). The method limit of detection was as 0.03, 0.009, 0.6, and 0.2 ng/L for Zn (II), Fe (II), Cd (II), and Pb (II) respectively with RSD% below 2.0 %. The analysis of certified reference materials and real samples proved the full applicability of the method for routine analysis, contributing to the field of heavy metal analysis and ensuring the safety of baby products. According to the AGREE methodology, this method can be named as green analytical chemistry method with a score of 0.77.

Abstract
Monitoring blood glucose level is critical, since its abnormality leads to diabetes and causes death, even though glucose is essential for human living. Herein, the sensing study was performed on electrochemical nonenzymatic glucose sensors, which are composed of an Au nanocluster (AuNC) catalyst deposited on a metallic nanotube array (MeNTA) and polypyrrole nanowire (PPyNW). The AuNC was produced by irradiating a femtosecond pulse laser to the Au precursor solution, and it is a simple and facile method. The successful deposition of AuNC on both MeNTA and PPyNW was confirmed by means of the surface morphology and the Au content increase. On the exploration by cyclic voltammetry in alkaline condition, AuNC/MeNTA electrodes showed better performance than AuNC/PPyNW electrodes: The former was a remarkable electrocatalytic detector towards glucose oxidation with better sensitivity, lower detection limit, wider linear range, and longer-term stability without interference from potential interfering agents such as ascorbic acid, urea, NaCl, KCl, etc. Moreover, nonenzymatic AuNC/MeNTA electrodes exhibited high precision and accuracy in real human blood samples and, thus, can be a promising candidate in glucose sensing applications.

Abstract
A copper film-modified, carboxyl-functionalized, and multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT-COOH)-modified screen-printed carbon electrode (CuF/MWCNTs/SPCE) was used for lead determination using anodic stripping voltammetry. The main parameters were investigated and optimized during the development of the research procedure. The most optimal electrolyte concentrations were determined to be 0.4 M HCl and 6.3 × 10-5 M Cu(II). The optimal parameters for voltammetric stripping measurements are as follows: an accumulation potential of -0.7 V; an accumulation time of 120 s; and a pulse amplitude and pulse time of 120 mV and 2 ms, respectively. The effect of surface active substances and humic substances as potential interferents present in aqueous environmental samples was investigated. The validation of the procedure was carried out using certified reference materials, like waste water SPS-WW1 and environmental matrix TM-25.5. In addition, the developed procedure was applied to investigate lead recovery from natural environmental water, such as rivers and lakes.

Abstract
The selective and sensitive diagnosis of diseases is a significant matter in the early stages of the cure of illnesses. To elaborate, although several types of probes have been broadly applied in clinics, magnetic nanomaterials-aptamers, as new-generation probes, are becoming more and more attractive. The presence of magnetic nanomaterials brings about quantification, purification, and quantitative analysis of biomedical, especially in complex samples. Elaborately, the superparamagnetic properties and numerous functionalized groups of magnetic nanomaterials are considered two main matters for providing separation ability and immobilization substrate, respectively. In addition, the selectivity and stability of aptamer can present a high potential recognition element. Importantly, the integration of aptamer and magnetic nanomaterials benefits can boost the performance of biosensors for biomedical analysis by introducing efficient and compact probes that need low patient samples and fast diagnosis, user-friendly application, and high repeatability in the quantification of biomolecules. The primary aim of this review is to suggest a summary of the effect of the employed other types of nanomaterials in the fabrication of novel aptasensors-based magnetic nanomaterials and to carefully explore various applications of these probes in the quantification of bioagents. Furthermore, the application of these versatile and high-potential probes in terms of the detection of cancer cells and biomarkers, proteins, drugs, bacteria, and nucleoside were discussed. Besides, research gaps and restrictions in the field of biomedical analysis by magnetic nanomaterials-aptamers will be discussed.

Abstract
In this study, a graphene electrochemical sensor based on laser graphene polymer material was proposed to induce graphene formation on polyimide substrates via fiber laser. The laser produces stable power and results to achieve the benefits of consistency, conductivity, and flexibility. The electrochemical three-electrodes were manufactured on polyimide to replace the traditional three-electrodes by achieving small size and portability. An electrode activation is the modification of laser-scribed graphene electrodes (LSG) to facilitate the binding of liver cancer sites. The evaluation is performed by differential pulse Voltammetry (DPV) to detect cancer proteins in the phosphate buffer saline (PBS) buffer and serum. In a serum environment, the concentrations of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) and Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) were detected from 0.75 ng ml-1 to 100 ng ml-1, AFP and CEA electrodes have a good linear range (R2 = 0.96 and R2 = 0.98), indicating the sensor's sensitivity and specificity for cancer detection. In addition, two types of carcinogenic proteins were monitored in the PBS and successfully detected in this experiment. Based on the results, the appropriate LSG sensor may be used for monitoring with limited resources. Electrode manufacturing is simple, fast, low-cost, small in size, convenient to carry, stable, instant detection, and flexible.

Abstract
In this report, synthetic and nitro groups containing antibiotic drug nitrofurantoin (NFT) were electrochemically quantified under amended conditions using novel constructed calcium tungstate microspheres modified on glassy carbon electrodes (CTMs/GCE). The calcium tungstate microspheres (CTMs) were synthesized by a facile sonochemical method and characterizations were done by various techniques, such as X-ray diffraction spectrometry (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Ahead of this, electrochemical investigations were performed using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), cyclic voltammetry (CV), amperometry, and linear sweep voltammetry (LSV). The synthesis of CTMs as well-distributed microspheres allows more active metal sites regarding and remarkable electrocatalytic activity towards NFT detection with excellent sensitivity (0.724 μA μM-1 cm-2) and low detection limit (21 nmol L-1) with a wide linear range 10-140 μM. The practical feasibility of the developed CTMs/GC electrode was elucidated using distinct real sample river tap water and clinical sample (NFT capsule), and thus, the modified electrode manifested acceptable recovery results.

Abstract
Preparing high-performance electrode materials from metal-organic framework precursors is currently a hot research topic in the field of energy storage materials. Improving the conductivity of such electrode materials and further increasing their specific capacitance are key issues that must be addressed. In this work, we prepared phosphoric acid-functionalized UiO-66 material as a precursor for carbonization, and after carbonization, it was combined with activated carbon to obtain nitrogen-/phosphorus-codoped carbonized UiO-66 composite material (N/P-C-UiO-66@AC). This material exhibits excellent conductivity. In addition, the carbonized product ZrO2 and the nitrogen-/phosphorus-codoped structure evidently improve the pseudocapacitance of the material. Electrochemical test results show that the material has a good electrochemical performance. The specific capacitance of the supercapacitor made from this material at 1.0 A/g is 140 F/g. After 5000 charge-discharge cycles at 10 A/g, its specific capacitance still remains at 88.5%, indicating that the composite material has good cycling stability. The symmetric supercapacitor assembled with this electrode material also has a high energy density of 11.0 W h/kg and a power density of 600 W/kg.

Abstract
This review paper summarizes the research published in the last five years on using different compounds and/or materials as modifiers for electrodes employed in trace heavy metal analysis. The main groups of modifiers are identified, and their single or combined application on the surface of the electrodes is discussed. Nanomaterials, film-forming substances, and polymers are among the most used compounds employed mainly in the modification of glassy carbon, screen-printed, and carbon paste electrodes. Composites composed of several compounds and/or materials have also found growing interest in the development of modified electrodes. Environmentally friendly substances and natural products (mainly biopolymers and plant extracts) have continued to be included in the modification of electrodes for trace heavy metal analysis. The main analytical performance parameters of the modified electrodes as well as possible interferences affecting the determination of the target analytes, are discussed. Finally, a critical evaluation of the main findings from these studies and an outlook discussing possible improvements in this area of research are presented.

Abstract
In this study, an eco-friendly strategy was used to prepare a novel SrTiO3/Ag/rGO composite. A SrTiO3/Ag/rGO composite-modified screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) was applied for the electrochemical detection of 4-nitrophenol. A simple ultrasonic method with an ultrasonic frequency of 20 kHz was used for the synthesis of SrTiO3/Ag/rGO composite material. The obtained SrTiO3/Ag/rGO composite was characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, Raman spectroscopy, field emission electron microscopy, and UV-visible spectroscopy. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was used to determine the electrical conductivity of the SrTiO3/Ag/rGO composite. The electrochemical properties of the modified electrode were studied using cyclic voltammetry as well as linear sweep voltammetry techniques. In comparison to SrTiO3/SPCE, SrTiO3/Ag/SPCE, and SrTiO3/rGO/SPCE electrodes, SrTiO3/Ag/rGO/SPCE demonstrates a considerable increase in 4-nitrophenol redox peak current. At optimum conditions, a large linear response range of 0.1-1000 M, with a relatively low limit of detection (0.03 M), outperforms the previously published modified electrode for 4-nitrophenol. Moreover, the SrTiO3/Ag/rGO/SPCE electrode-based 4-nitrophenol sensor is distinguished by good selectivity, high stability, and repeatability. Furthermore, SrTiO3/Ag/rGO/SPCE contributed to the detection of 4-nitrophenol in river water and drinking water with the recovery range from 97.5 to 98.7%. The experimental finding was supported by density functional theory calculation.

Abstract
N-doped carbon materials are known for their high conductivity, rich N content, and high adsorption activity. When combined with Fe2O3 to form nanocomposites, they can improve the conductivity of Fe2O3 and cause significant changes in the electrochemical sensing interface with the influence of their unique electronic structure. In this work, N-doped carbon nanocomposites (Fe2O3@NCNPs-x) modified with Fe2O3 nanoparticles (Fe2O3 NPs) were synthesized by a simple emulsion polymerization method and carbonized under Ar at a high temperature. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy indicated that compared with undoped Fe2O3 NPs, the π bond of Fe2O3@NCNPs-1.5 was negatively charged due to the lone pair of electrons near the N atom, acting as an electron donor that enhanced the interaction with HMIs and electron transport, therefore generating more active sites on the surface of Fe2O3@NCNPs-1.5. The obtained Fe2+/Fe3+ ratio was about two times higher than that of undoped Fe2O3 NPs (Fe2O3@NCNPs-1.5: Fe2+/Fe3+ = 1.24; Fe2O3 NPs: Fe2+/Fe3+ = 0.61). The surface oxygen vacancy (OV) concentration reached the maximum level (Fe2O3@NCNPs-1.5: OVs/O1s = 41.7%; Fe2O3 NPs: OVs/O1s = 22%). Fe2O3@NCNPs-1.5/GCE also showed enhanced electrochemical performance for detecting Pb2+ and Cd2+, with a limit of detection (LOD, S/N = 3) of 4.92 and 18.79 nM, respectively. Electrochemical adsorption tests suggested that Fe2O3@NCNPs-1.5/GCE had the strongest adsorption capacity for Pb2+ and Cd2+ in comparison with other modified electrodes, suggesting that different N contents led to different absorbability for heavy metal ions (HMIs). Therefore, when the metal oxide nanoparticles are loaded on compatible carriers, the jointly constructed nanocomposites can be used as the active materials for efficiently detecting HMIs, providing a new concept for designing highly active electrochemical sensors.

Abstract
Diphenylamine (DPA) is a harmful pesticide widely used to control post-harvest scald of fruits. In this study, rapid and sensitive determination of DPA was realized by the development of an effective electrochemical sensor, which was fabricated by coupling La-doped NiWO4 nanoparticles (La/NiWO4) with reduced graphene oxide (rGO), and the obtained rGO/La/NiWO4 nanocomposite was modified on glassy carbon electrodes (GCEs). The morphologies, structures and compositions were well characterized, and the effects of La doping and the introduction of rGO on the crystal structure and electrochemical performance were discussed. The incorporation of both La and rGO was found to enhance the active surface area and improve conductivity, resulting in the enhanced electrocatalytic performance of rGO/La/NiWO4/GCE, including a wide linear range (0.01-500 μM), a low detection limit (0.0058 μM) and high sensitivity (1.778 μA μM-1 cm-2). The fabricated sensor was further used for DPA detection in fresh apple extract to evaluate its practicality and demonstrated excellent recoveries ranging from 99.52 to 104.70%.

Abstract
A polymer-based nanosensor and electrochemical methods were developed for the quantitative analysis of vanillin. The sample preparation was done using nano solid phase micro membrane tip extraction (NSPMMTE). A novel poly(phenylalanine)/TiO2/CPE sensor was built as the working electrode for the first time for the analysis of the vanillin substance. The electrochemical behavior and analytical performance of vanillin were examined in detail by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse stripping voltammetry (DPSV) techniques via the oxidation process. The optimized modules of the DPSV technique that affected the vanillin peak current and peak potential were pH, pulse amplitude, step potential, and deposition time. The electroactive surface areas of bare CPE, TiO2/CPE, and poly(phenylalanine)/TiO2/CPE electrodes were found to be 0.135 cm2, 0.155 cm2, and 0.221 cm2, respectively. The limit of detection (LOD) was 32.6 μg/L in the 0.25-15.0 mg/L working range at pH 7.0. The selectivity of the proposed DPSV method for the determination of vanillin on the modified electrode was investigated in the presence of various organic and inorganic substances, and the determination of vanillin with high recovery was achieved with less than 5% relative error. The analytical application was applied in chocolate samples and the DPSV method was found highly efficient, reproducible, and selective.

Abstract
Polyether antibiotics (PAs) are the anti-coccidiosis drugs used for treating and preventing coccidiosis. Studies show the residues of these antibiotics in food cause adversities and threaten human health. PAs thus need robust, rugged, and accurate methods for their analysis. This review encompasses pretreatment and detection methods of PAs in diverse matrices since 2010. Both conventional and developed methods are part of the pretreatments, such as dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction, solid-phase extraction, solid-phase microextraction, solvent front position extraction, QuEChERS (Quick Easy Cheap Effective Rugged and Safe), supercritical fluid extraction, and others. The analysis methods involve liquid chromatography coupled with detectors, sensors, etc. The pros and cons of various techniques for PAs have been discussed and future tendencies are proposed.

Abstract
Bismuth oxides were synthesized from bismuth carbonate using the sol-gel method. Studies have described the formation of Bi2O3, as a precursor of HNO3 dissolution, and intermediate oxides, such as BixOy when using H2SO4 and H3PO4. The average size of the crystallite calculated from Scherrer's formula ranged from 9 to 19 nm, according to X-ray diffraction. The FTIR analysis showed the presence of specific Bi2O3 bands when using HNO3 and of crystalline phases of "bismuth oxide sulphate" when using H2SO4 and "bismuth phosphate" when using H3PO4. The TG curves showed major mass losses and specific thermal effects, delimited in four temperature zones for materials synthesized with HNO3 (with loss of mass between 24% and 50%) and H2SO4 (with loss of mass between 45% and 76%), and in three temperature zones for materials synthesized with H3PO4 (with loss of mass between 13% and 43%). Further, the thermal stability indicates that materials have been improved by the addition of a polymer or polymer and carbon. Confocal laser scanning microscopy showed decreased roughness in the series, [BixOy]N > [BixOy-6% PVA]N > [BixOy-C-6% PVA]N, and increased roughness for materials [BixOy]S, [BixOy-6% PVA]S, [BixOy-C-6% PVA]S, [BixOy]P, [BixOy-6% PVA]P and [BixOy-C-6% PVA]P. The morphological analysis (electronic scanning microscopy) of the synthesized materials showed a wide variety of forms: overlapping nanoplates ([BixOy]N or [BixOy]S), clusters of angular forms ([BixOy-6% PVA]N), pillars ([BixOy-6% PVA]S-Au), needle particles ([BixOy-Au], [BixOy-6% PVA]S-Au, [BixOy-C-6% PVA]S-Au), spherical particles ([BixOy-C-6% PVA]P-Pt), 2D plates ([BixOy]P-Pt) and 3D nanometric plates ([BixOy-C-6% PVA]S-Au). For materials obtained in the first synthesis stage, antimicrobial activity increased in the series [BixOy]N > [BixOy]S > [BixOy]P. For materials synthesized in the second synthesis stage, when polymer (polyvinyl alcohol, PVA) was added, maximum antimicrobial activity, regardless of the microbial species tested, was present in the material [BixOy-6% PVA]S. For the materials synthesized in the third stage, to which graphite and 6% PVA were added, the best antimicrobial activity was in the material [BixOy-C-6% PVA]P. Materials synthesized and doped with metal ions (gold or platinum) showed significant antimicrobial activity for the tested microbial species.

Abstract
An innovative sensor is prepared by electrode modification through a nano-ranged electrode modifier composed of LaNbO4 nano caviars decorated on the enmeshed carbon nanofibers to identify excess vitamins in animal feed. Menadione (Vitamins K3) is a micronutrient fundamentally required in precise quantities for animal health upkeep. Still, its exploitation has recently resulted in water reservoir contamination through waste generated from animal husbandry. Sustainable prevention of water contamination makes menadione detection highly imperative and flickered the attention of researchers. Considering these aspects, a novel menadione sensing platform is designed by interdisciplinary incorporation of nanoscience and electrochemical engineering. The structural and crystallographic features and the electrode modifier's morphological insights were keenly investigated. The hierarchal arrangement of individual constituents in nanocomposite is benefited through hybrid heterojunction and quantum confinement that synchronously activate the menadione detection with a LOD of 68.5 nM and 67.49 nM for oxidation and reduction, respectively. The as-prepared sensor has a wide linear range (0.1-173.6 μM), high sensitivity, good selectivity, and stability. The application of this sensor is extended to a water sample to monitor the consistency of the proposed sensor.

Abstract
Mycotoxin pollution in agricultural food products endangers animal and human health during the supply chains, therefore the development of accurate and rapid techniques for the determination of mycotoxins is of great importance for food safety guarantee. MXenes-based nanoprobes have attracted enormous attention as a complementary analysis and promising alternative strategies to conventional diagnostic methods, because of their fascinating features, like high electrical conductivity, various surface functional groups, high surface area, superb thermal resistance, good hydrophilicity, and environmentally-friendlier characteristics. In this study, we outline the state-of-the-art research on MXenes-based probes in detecting various mycotoxins like aflatoxin, ochratoxin, deoxynivalenol, zearalenone, and other toxins as a most commonly founded mycotoxin in the agri-food supply chain. First, we present the diverse synthesis approaches and exceptional characteristics of MXenes. Afterward, based on the detecting mechanism, we divide the biosensing utilizations of MXenes into two subcategories: electrochemical, and optical biosensors. Then their performance in effective sensing of mycotoxins is comprehensively deliberated. Finally, present challenges and prospective opportunities for MXenes are debated.

Abstract
In recent years, the usage of nitroaniline has played a vital role in pharmaceutical formulations as it is a crucial ingredient in the synthesis of pesticides and dyes. However, the level of nitroaniline existing in industrial waste keeps rising the environmental contamination. Thus, monitoring of active nitro-residuals becomes more significant in reducing the toxicity of the ecosystem. Therefore, we have taken an attempt to evaluate the hazardous pollutant 2-nitroaniline (2-NA) using the electrocatalyst viz., tin-doped bismuth oxide inserted on a biopolymer silk fibroin composite modified glassy carbon electrode (Sn-Bi2O3/SF@GCE). The Sn-Bi2O3/SF nanocomposite was synthesized through hydrothermal and co-precipitation methods. The physicochemical properties of the prepared Sn-Bi2O3/SF hybrid composite were examined by conventional microscopy and spectroscopic techniques like FE-SEM, HR-TEM, XRD, FTIR, Raman, and XPS. Furthermore, the bio-mineralized Sn-Bi2O3/SF@GCE displayed a wide linear range (0.009 μM-785.7 μM) and a lower detection limit (3.5 nM) with good sensitivity for 2-NA detection under the optimum conditions. The result shows that the Sn-Bi2O3/SF-modified GCE has good reproducibility, repeatability, and excellent selectivity for 2-NA detection in the presence of other co-interfering compounds. Moreover, the practical applicability of Sn-Bi2O3/SF@GCE sensors was investigated for the effective detection of 2-NA in real river water samples, revealing good recovery results.

Abstract
Early-stage uric acid (UA) abnormality detection is crucial for a healthy human. With the evolution of nanoscience, metal oxide nanostructure-based sensors have become a potential candidate for health monitoring due to their low-cost, easy-to-handle, and portability. Herein, we demonstrate the synthesis of puffy balls-like cobalt oxide nanostructure using a hydrothermal method and utilize them to modify the working electrode for non-enzymatic electrochemical sensor fabrication. The non-enzymatic electrochemical sensor was utilized for UA determination using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The puffy balls-shaped cobalt oxide nanostructure-modified glassy carbon (GC) electrode exhibited excellent electro-catalytic activity during UA detection. Interestingly, when we compared the sensitivity of non-enzymatic electrochemical UA sensors, the DPV technique resulted in high sensitivity (2158 µA/mM.cm2) compared to the CV technique (sensitivity = 307 µA/mM.cm2). The developed non-enzymatic electrochemical UA sensor showed good selectivity, stability, reproducibility, and applicability in the human serum. Moreover, this study indicates that the puffy balls-shaped cobalt oxide nanostructure can be utilized as electrode material for designing (bio)sensors to detect a specific analyte.

Abstract
Metal-free, cost-efficient, redox-active electrode materials, combining graphene derivatives with nitrogen-rich polymelamine (PM), are widely explored as an interface layer for electrocatalysis and an electrochemical sensor platform. However, conventional chemical routes often yield derivatives of PM suffering from impaired redox behavior, restricting their electron-transfer kinetics. Herein, an optimal potentiodynamic method has been established to electrodeposit PM on electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (ErGO). A supporting electrolyte, containing Cl-, enhances the formation of intermediates NH3+ and ═NH2+ at the monomeric melamine, eventually interacting with the residual oxygenated functional groups of ErGO to form PM. In situ Raman spectrum analysis revealed the influence of the defective area and the graphitization ratio on the ErGO surface during the course of electropolymerization of melamine. Under optimal electrodeposition conditions (E = 0-1.6 V; ν = 0.1 V/s), the amount of electrodeposited PM on the ErGO surface was determined to be 16.5 μg/(cycle·cm2), using electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance analysis. An ErGO-PM-modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) and a screen-printed electrode exhibit the direct electrooxidation of acyclovir (ACV). Amperometric analyses of ErGO-PM-modified electrodes exhibited the lowest detection limit of 137.4 pM with analytical robustness, rapid steady state, and reproducibility promising for ACV detection in complex biological matrices.

Rapid determination of lead (Pb) in the soil-plant system by laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS): case study of Pb-pollution from perovskite solar cells. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 30:43472-43479.

Abstract
With the widespread usage of lead (Pb)-containing perovskite solar cells (PSCs), it is critical to monitor Pb pollution from PSCs in the environment. Among different analytical techniques, laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) has demonstrated good performance in the fast quantification of many elements in solid samples, without using toxic and expensive chemical reagents. Therefore, LIBS offers significant potential for detecting and quantifying Pb in the environment. In this study, a Pb migration model in the PSCs-soil-Houttuynia plants system was assessed based on the LIBS data. The Pb transfer rates and the Pb uptake coefficients were calculated to evaluate Pb migration from PSCs to plants. The results showed that the R2 of quantitative results were all greater than 0.98, with the root-mean-square error of cross-validation (RMSECV) being less than 1.53 wt.%. Furthermore, above 49% Pb from PSCs was swiftly diffused into soil under watering conditions, while Houttuynia plants absorbed over 10% Pb from polluted soil. This study revealed that Pb leakage from PSCs should not be underestimated and that LIBS is a viable and fast analytical method for monitoring Pb in the environment.

Abstract
Due to the recent increase in average living standards, food safety has caught public attention. It is necessary to conduct a qualitative and quantitative rapid test of prohibited food additives since the inclusion of food additives or the improper usage of synthetic dyes can negatively impact on the human health. Herein, a highly sensitive method for Sunset Yellow detection based on a glassy carbon electrode modified with few-layer graphenes was proposed. The electrochemical behavior of SY at the GR-exf/GCE modified surface was investigated by Cyclic Voltammetry, Square Wave Voltammetry, Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy and Amperometry. The influences of pH, scan rate, and interfering species were studied. Under optimized conditions, the developed sensor shows good linearity over a broad SY concentration range, e.g., 0.028-30 µM, with a low limit of detection (LOD = 0.0085 µM) and quantification (LOQ = 0.028 µM) (data obtained by amperometric technique). Furthermore, the modified electrode shows good selectivity, precision and sensitivity and has been successfully applied for SY quantification from commercially available pharmaceutical formulation as well as from candy bars and orange juice.

Abstract
The present study introduced the construction and electroanalytical characterization of novel tirofiban (TIR) carbon paste voltammetric sensors integrated with copper oxide nanoparticles. The copper oxide nanostructure remarkably enhanced the oxidation of TIR molecules on the electrode surface with an irreversible anodic oxidation peak at about 1.18 V. The peak current values of the recorded differential pulse voltammograms were correlated to the TIR concentrations within a defined linear range from 0.060 to 7.41 μg mL-1 with an LOD value of 20.7 ng mL-1. Based on the electrochemical behavior of TIR at different scan rates and with the aid of the molecular orbital calculations performed on the TIR molecule, the electro-oxidation reaction was postulated to undergo through the oxidation of the five-membered-ring nitrogen atom with the transfer of one electron and one proton. Based on the reported selectivity and sensitivity of the proposed method, TIR was successfully determined in Aggrastat intravenous infusion and biological samples with mean average recoveries agreeable with the UV spectrophotometric method.

Abstract
The objective of the study was to develop a new method for the determination of the total content of vitamin C and dehydroascorbic acid in food, based on the technique of differential pulse voltammetry with the use of a boron-doped diamond electrode modified with mercury film. A comparison was made between the results obtained with the developed method and a proposed reference method based on high-performance liquid chromatography with spectrophotometric detection. The reduction of dehydroascorbic acid was performed with the use of tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine. The interference caused by the presence of tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine during the voltammetric determination of ascorbic acid was effectively eliminated through a reaction with N-ethylmaleimide. The conducted validation of the voltammetric method indicated that correct results of analysis of the total content of vitamin C and ascorbic acid were obtained. Analysis of the content of dehydroascorbic acid was imprecise due to the application of the differential method. The results of the analyses and the determined validation parameters of the developed method are characterised by a high degree of conformance with the results obtained with the chromatographic reference method, which indicates the equivalence of the two methods.

Abstract
Cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) are classified as category one toxicants. The provisional guideline values, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), for Cd and Pb are 3 and 10 ppb, respectively. An easy, quick, and cheap analytical technique is in demand for the determination of these toxic heavy metals in water. Hence, a novel electrochemical sensing platform is developed by modifying the glassy carbon electrode with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA)-functionalized reduced graphene oxide (ErGO) for the low-cost simultaneous quantitation of toxic heavy-metal ions, lead and cadmium, in real water samples. EDTA is grafted to the surface of graphene oxide, via amine linkage, and the oxygen functionality is reduced by a green agent, tyrosine. Various physical and electrochemical characterizations of the as-prepared electrocatalytic material were performed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), ζ-potential, ultraviolet diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-DRS), cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), etc. The glassy carbon electrode (GCE) is modified with ErGO by a simple drop-casting method for simultaneous metal-ion quantitation by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). EDTA functionalization of graphene oxide and its further reduction using the green agent enhance the stability and sensitivity of the electrode substrate. The limits of detection for cadmium and lead ions calculated for ErGO/GCE are 1.02 and 2.52 ppb, while the limits of quantification for lead and cadmium ions are 3.41 and 8.4 ppb, and their sensitivities are 0.8 and 0.6 nA/ppb, respectively. Real river water contains 200.2 ± 0.38 ppb of Pb2+ ions (mean ± stdev, n = 3) by the DPV technique, which is validated by ICP-OES analysis.

Abstract
Using radix pueraria flavonoids (RPFs) as a reducing and stabilizing agent, we report a simple, cost-effective, and ecologically friendly green synthesis technique for gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in the present study. Ultraviolet-visible (UV) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) investigations were used to characterize the AuNPs. The results demonstrated that the produced AuNPs were nearly spherical and that their particle sizes had a mean diameter of 4.85 ± 0.75 nm. The "Green" AuNPs, exhibiting remarkable peroxidase-like activity and Michaelis-Menten kinetics with high affinity for H2O2 and 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB), were effectively applied to the fabrication of a sensitive nonenzymatic enhanced electrochemical sensor for the detection of cholesterol (Cho). Under optimum circumstances, it was possible to establish two linear ranges of 1-100 and 250-5000 μmol/L with a detection limit of 0.259 μmol/L (signal/noise ratio (S/N) = 3). The suggested sensor was utilized with satisfactory findings to determine the amount of Cho in food samples.

Abstract
The electrochemical and photochemical properties of graphene derivatives could be significantly improved by modifications in the chemical structure. Herein, reduced graphene oxide (RGO) was functionalized with L-arginine (L-Arg) by an amidation reaction between the support and amino acid. Deposition of a powerful ligand, L-Arg, on the optically active support generated an effective optical chemosensor for the determination of Cd(II), Co(II), Pb(II), and Cu(II). In addition, L-Arg-RGO was used as an electrode modifier to fabricate L-Arg-RGO modified glassy-carbon electrode (L-Arg-RGO/GCE) to be employed in the selective detection of Pb(II) ions by differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DP-ASV). L-Arg-RGO/GCE afforded better results than the bare GCE, RGO/GCE, and L-Arg functionalized graphene quantum dot modified GCE. The nanostructure of RGO, modification by L-Arg, and homogeneous immobilization of resultant nanoparticles at the electrode surface are the reasons for outstanding results. The proposed electrochemical sensor has a wide linear range with a limit of detection equal to 0.06 nM, leading to the easy detection of Pb(II) in the presence of other cations. This research highlighted that RGO as a promising support of optical, and electrochemical sensors could be used in the selective, and sensitive determination of transition metals depends on the nature of the modifier. Moreover, L-Arg as an abundant amino acid deserves to perch on the support for optical, and electrochemical determination of transition metals.

Abstract
The outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) has heightened awareness of the importance of quick and easy testing. The convenience, speed, and timely results from point-of-care testing (POCT) in all vitro diagnostic devices has drawn the strong interest of researchers. However, there are still many challenges in the development of POCT devices, such as the pretreatment of samples, detection sensitivity, specificity, and so on. It is anticipated that the unique properties of nanomaterials, e.g., their magnetic, optical, thermal, and electrically conductive features, will address the deficiencies that currently exist in POCT devices. In this review, we mainly analyze the work processes of POCT devices, especially in nucleic acid detection, and summarize how novel nanomaterials used in various aspects of POCT products can improve performance, with the ultimate aims of offering new ideas for the application of nanomaterials and the overall development of POCT devices.

Abstract
A 1,10-phenanthroline-Fe3O4 nanoparticles-graphene oxide-chitosan nanocomposite (Phen-Fe3O4 NPs-GO-Chi) was fabricated and used to modify a glassy carbon (GC) electrode. The modified surface of the electrode was characterized by field emission-scanning electrochemical microscopy. Then, the prepared electrode was used as a sensor for simultaneous determination of purine and pyrimidine bases in DNA. The Phen-Fe3O4 NPs-GO-Chi composite modified electrode showed excellent response toward guanine (G), adenine (A), thymine (T) and cytosine (C). The sensor displayed higher effective surface, an appropriate peak-to-peak separation, and a larger peak current compared to the bare electrode. The evaluated detection limits of G, A, T, and C concentrations are 12, 4, 22, and 9 μM over the concentration range of 15-500, 15-400, 40-1000 and 40-1400 μM, respectively. In addition, the results show that the modified electrode is stable for 7 days and has good repeatability and interfering molecules and ions have no significant effect on peak current. The proposed method was successfully applied for the determination of purine and pyrimidine bases in a fish DNA sperm sample as a real sample.

Abstract
Herein we present a facile synthesis of the graphene oxide-decorated binary transition metal oxides of Bi2O3 and MnO2 nanocomposites (Bi2O3/MnO2/GO) and their applications in the voltammetric detection of lead ions (Pb2+) in water samples. The surface morphologies, crystal structures, electroactive surface area, and charge transferred resistance of the Bi2O3/MnO2/GO nanocomposites were investigated through the scanning electron microscopy (SEM), power X-ray diffraction (XRD), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques, respectively. The Bi2O3/MnO2/GO nanocomposites were further decorated onto the surface of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE), and Pb2+ was quantitatively analyzed by using square-wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV). We explored the effect of the analytical parameters, including deposition potential, deposition time, and solution pH, on the stripping peak current of Pb2+. The Bi2O3/MnO2/GO nanocomposites enlarged the electroactive surface area and reduced the charge transferred resistance by significant amounts. Moreover, the synergistic enhancement effect of MnO2, Bi2O3 and GO endowed Bi2O3/MnO2/GO/GCE with extraordinary electrocatalytic activity toward Pb2+ stripping. Under optimal conditions, the Bi2O3/MnO2/GO/GCE showed a broad linear detection range (0.01-10 μM) toward Pb2+ detection, with a low limit of detection (LOD, 2.0 nM). The proposed Bi2O3/MnO2/GO/GCE electrode achieved an accurate detection of Pb2+ in water with good recoveries (95.5-105%).

Abstract
MXene is a rapidly emerging group of two-dimensional (2D) multifunctional nanomaterials, drawing huge attention from researchers of a broad scientific field. Reporting the synthesis of MXene was the following breakthrough in 2D materials following the discovery of graphene. MXene is considered the most recent developments of materials, including transition metal carbonitrides, nitrides, and carbides synthesized by etching or mechanical-based exfoliation of selective MAX phases. MXene has a plethora of prodigious properties such as unique interlayer spacing, high ion and electron transport, large surface area, excellent thermal and electrical conductivity, exceptional volumetric capacitance, thermal shock, and oxidation resistance, easily machinable and inherently hydrophilic, and biocompatibility. Owing to the abundance of tailorable surface function groups, these properties can be further enhanced by surface functionalization with covalent and non-covalent modifications via numerous surface functionalization methods. Therefore, MXene finds their way to a plethora of applications in numerous fields including catalysis, membrane separation, energy storage, sensing, and biomedicine. Here, the focus is on reviewing the structure, synthesis techniques, and functionalization methods of MXene. Furthermore, MXene-based detection platforms in different sensing applications are survived. Great attention is given to reviewing the applications of MXene in the detection of biomolecules, pathogenic bacteria and viruses, cancer biomarkers food contaminants and mycotoxins, and hazardous pollutants. Lastly, the future perspective of MXene-based biosensors as a next-generation diagnostics tool is discussed. Crucial visions are introduced for materials science and sensing communities to better route while investigating the potential of MXene for creating innovative detection mechanisms.

Abstract
Bioaerosols are the biological materials in the air, which may cause a continuous threat to human health. However, there are many challenges in monitoring bioaerosols such as lack of sensitivity and selectivity. Herein, we synthesized a series of nanohybrids containing zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) to construct an electrochemical aptasensor for detecting adenosine triphosphate (ATP), a biomarker for bioaerosols. The synthesized nanohybrids can not only improve the selectivity of aptasensor because of the original crystal and chemical features of ZIF-67, but also boost its sensitivity due to the excellent conductivity of COFs. After optimizing the nanohybrids, the novel developed sensing platform achieved highly selective detection of ATP with an excellent detection limit of 0.11 nM in a wide linear range from 0.1 nM to 100 nM. Furthermore, this assay was applied to detect bioaerosols in real air samples, and the result showed a positive correlation with that of the culturing-based method, suggesting its potential applicability.

Abstract
An electrochemical cell containing two graphite rods was filled with the appropriate electrolyte (0.2 M ammonia + 0.2 M ammonium sulphate) and connected to the exfoliation system to synthesize graphene (EGr). A bias of 7 V was applied between the anode and cathode for 3 h. After synthesis, the morphology and structure of the sample was characterized by SEM, XRD, and FTIR techniques. The material was deposited onto the surface of a glassy carbon (GC) electrode (EGr/GC) and employed for the electrochemical detection of azithromycin (AZT). The DPV signals recorded in pH 5 acetate containing 6 × 10-5 M AZT revealed significant differences between the GC and EGr/GC electrodes. For EGr/GC, the oxidation peak was higher and appeared at lower potential (+1.12 V) compared with that of bare GC (+1.35 V). The linear range for AZT obtained with the EGr/GC electrode was very wide, 10-8-10-5 M, the sensitivity was 0.68 A/M, and the detection limit was 3.03 × 10-9 M. It is important to mention that the sensitivity of EGr/GC was three times higher than that of bare GC (0.23 A/M), proving the advantages of using graphene-modified electrodes in the electrochemical detection of AZT.

Abstract
Early diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a leading cause of cancer mortality, is decisive for successful treatment of this type of cancer and increasing the patients' survival rate. Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a glycoprotein that has been currently employed as a potential serological biomarker for determination of HCC and several other cancers. Achieving highly sensitive and specific detection of this biomarker is an effective strategy to inhibit developing issues caused by the cancer. Though, traditional procedures cannot meet the requirements due to the technical drawbacks. Recently, growing number of aptamer-based biosensors (aptasensors) attracted important attention as superior diagnostic tools because of their unique properties such as high stability, target versatility and remarkable affinity and selectivity. Nanomaterials, which broadly employed in the structure of these aptasensors, can considerably enhance the detection limit and sensitivity of analytes determination. Therefore, this review selectively investigated the recent progresses in several different optical and electrochemical aptasensors and nano-aptasensors designed for AFP assay.

Abstract
Biosensors are powerful analytical tools used to identify and detect target molecules. Electrochemical biosensors, which combine biosensing with electrochemical analysis techniques, are efficient analytical instruments that translate concentration signals into electrical signals, enabling the quantitative and qualitative analysis of target molecules. Electrochemical biosensors have been widely used in various fields of detection and analysis due to their high sensitivity, superior selectivity, quick reaction time, and inexpensive cost. However, the signal changes caused by interactions between a biological probe and a target molecule are very weak and difficult to capture directly by using detection instruments. Therefore, various signal amplification strategies have been proposed and developed to increase the accuracy and sensitivity of detection systems. This review serves as a reference for biosensor and detector research, as it introduces the research progress of electrochemical signal amplification strategies in olfactory and taste evaluation. It also discusses the latest signal amplification strategies currently being employed in electrochemical biosensors for nanomaterial development, enzyme labeling, and nucleic acid amplification techniques, and highlights the most recent work in using cell tissues as biosensitive elements.

Abstract
A simple electrochemical sensor for nicotine (NIC) detection was performed. The sensor based on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was modified by (1,2-naphthoquinone-4-sulphonic acid)(Nq) decorated by graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposite. The synthesized (GO) nanosheets were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), FT-IR, and UV-Visible Spectroscopy. The insertion of Nq with GO nanosheets on the surface of GCE displayed high electrocatalytic activity towards NIC compared to the bare GCE. NIC determination was performed under the optimum conditions using 0.10 M of Na2SO4 as a supporting electrolyte with pH 8.0 at a scan rate of 100 mV/s using both cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). This electrochemical sensor showed an excellent result for NIC detection. The oxidation peak current increased linearly with a 6.5–245 µM of NIC with R2 = 0.9999. The limit of detection was 12.7 nM. The fabricated electrode provided satisfactory stability, reproducibility, and selectivity for NIC oxidation. The reliable GO/Nq/GCE sensor was successfully applied for detecting NIC in the tobacco product and a urine sample.

Abstract
The new research presents highly conductive polymeric membranes with a large surface area to volume ratio of metal oxide nanoparticles that were used to determine atropine sulfate (AT) in commercial dosage forms. In sensing and biosensing applications, the nanomaterials zinc oxide (ZnONPs) and magnesium oxide (MgONPs) were employed as boosting potential electroactive materials. The electroactive atropine phosphotungstate (AT-PT) was created by combining atropine sulfate and phosphotungstic acid (PTA) and mixing it with polymeric polyvinyl chloride (PVC) with the plasticizer o-nitrophenyl octyl ether (o-NPOE). The modified sensors AT-PT-ZnONPs or AT-PT-MgONPs showed excellent selectivity and sensitivity for the measurements of atropine with a linear concentration range of 6.0 × 10−8 − 1.0 × 10−3 and 8.0 × 10−8 − 1.0 × 10−3 mol L−1 with regression equations of E(mV) = (56 ± 0.5) log [AT] − 294 and E(mV) = (54 ± 0.5) log [AT] − 422 for AT-PT-NPs or AT-PT-MgONPs sensors, respectively. The AT-PT coated wire sensor, on the other hand, showed a Nernstian response at 4.0 × 10−6 − 1.0 × 10−3 mol L−1 and a regression equation E(mV) = (52.1 ± 0.2) log [AT] + 198. The methodology-recommended guidelines were used to validate the suggested modified potentiometric systems against various criteria.

Abstract
This work presents the use of encapsulated mini protein 20 mimicking uricase (mp20)-zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) as a bioreceptor for the development of a nanozyme-based electrochemical biosensor for uric acid detection. The electrochemical performance of the biofunctionalized mp20@ZIF-8 on the reduced graphene oxide/screen-printed carbon electrode (rGO/SPCE) was investigated by optimizing operating parameters such as pH, deposition potential, and deposition time using a central composite design-response surface methodology (CCD-RSM). The quadratic regression model was developed to correlate the combination of each variable to the oxidation current density as a response. A significant effect on current response was observed under optimized conditions of pH of 7.4 at −0.35 V deposition potential and 56.56 s deposition time, with p < 0.05 for each interacted factor. The obtained coefficient of determination (R2) value of 0.9992 indicated good agreement with the experimental finding. The developed nanozyme biosensor (mp20@ZIF-8/rGO/SPCE) exhibited high selectivity in the presence of the same fold concentration of interfering species with a detection limit of 0.27 μM, over a concentration range of 1 to 34 μM. The practicality of the tailored biosensor in monitoring uric acid in human serum and urine samples was validated with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and a commercial uric acid meter. Hence, nanozyme-based is a promising platform that offers a rapid, sensitive, selective, and low-cost biosensor for the non-enzymatic detection of uric acid in biological samples.

Abstract
We report on the use of silver nanodisks (AgNDs), having a diameter of 50 ± 8 nm and a thickness of 8 ± 2 nm, as electrochemical labels for the detection of a model metalloimmunoassay for the heart failure biomarker NT-proBNP. The detection method is based on an electrochemically activated galvanic exchange (GE) followed by the detection of Ag using anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV). The AgNDs labels are superior to Ag nanocubes and Ag nanospheres in terms of the dynamic range for both the model and NT-proBNP metalloimmunoassays. The linear dynamic range for the model composite is 1.5 to 30.0 pM AgNDs. When AgND labels are used for the NT-proBNP assay, the dynamic range is 0.03-4.0 nM NT-proBNP. The latter range fully overlaps the risk stratification range for heart failure from 53 pM to 590 pM. The performance improvement of the AgNDs is a result of the specific GE mechanism for nanodisks. Specifically, GE is complete across the face of the AgNDs, leaving behind an incompletely exchanged ring structure composed of both Ag and Au.

Abstract
Antibiotics constitute one of the emerging categories of persistent organic pollutants, characterised by their expansion of resistant pathogens. Antibiotic pollutants create a major public health challenge, with already identifiable detrimental effects on human and animal health. A fundamental aspect of controlling and preventing the spread of pollutants is the continuous screening and monitoring of environmental samples. Molecular imprinting is a state-of-the-art technique for designing robust biomimetic receptors called molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), which mimic natural biomolecules in target-selective recognition. When integrated with an appropriate sensor transducer, MIP demonstrates a potential for the needed environmental monitoring, thus justifying the observed rise in interest in this field of research. This review examines scientific interventions within the last decade on the determination of antibiotic water pollutants using MIP receptors interfaced with label-free sensing platforms, with an expanded focus on optical, piezoelectric, and electrochemical systems. Following these, the review evaluates the analytical performance of outstanding MIP-based sensors for environmentally significant antibiotics, while highlighting the importance of computational chemistry in functional monomer selection and the strategies for signal amplification and performance improvement. Lastly, the review points out the future trends in antibiotic MIP research, as it transits from a proof of concept to the much demanded commercially available entity.
