Abstract
The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 in 2019 led to the global COVID-19 pandemic, highlighting the urgency for developing cost-effective and non-invasive methods to detect diseases at an early stage. Human breath, rich in volatile organic compounds (VOCs), is promising for cost-effective and rapid disease detection, with specific VOCs like methanol, ethanal, butanone, acetone, and ethyl butyrate linked to COVID-19. Recent advances in biomarker detection and gas sensing with 2D materials, particularly III-As monolayers like BAs, GaAs, and AlAs, offer high sensitivity at low concentrations, providing a novel avenue for exploring their potential in detecting COVID-19 biomarkers. This article aims to examine the effects of adsorption on different properties of III-Arsenide (BAs, GaAs and AlAs) monolayers, particularly in connection with SARS-CoV-2 biomarkers. In order to examine the interaction between the monolayers and biomarkers, first-principles computations within the framework of density functional theory (DFT) are utilized. The present study involves an investigation of the modifications in the band structure, density of states (DOS), work function, electron density difference, and optical properties (reflectance and absorbance) of III-As monolayers, with the aim of assessing their viability for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 biomarkers along with interfering gases such as CO2 and H2O. It is observed that VOCs induce a notable change in the work function of GaAs which serves as an indicator of the presence of these biomarkers. However, the changes in work function are not as substantial as those for AlAs and BAs. Additionally, the chemiresistive sensitivity, optical sensitivity and recovery time of III-As are investigated. The findings suggest that the pristine GaAs monolayer displays a significant level of sensitivity and selectivity towards the SARS-CoV-2 biomarkers, rendering it a material with potential for utilization in sensing applications. Furthermore, it has been observed that the recovery time of the GaAs monolayer subsequent to its exposure to the VOC biomarkers lies within an acceptable threshold. Upon exposure to UV light, the recovery time is further reduced. The outcomes of our study indicate that GaAs monolayers exhibit considerable potential as chemiresistive, work function-based and optical sensors for the precise and discerning identification of VOCs linked to the SARS-CoV-2 virus compared to the other two III-As monolayers.

Abstract
In this study, for the first time, boron oxide nanoflake is analyzed as drug carrier for favipiravir using computational studies. The thermodynamic stability of the boron oxide and favipiravir justifies the strong interaction between both species. Four orientations are investigated for the interaction between the favipiravir and the B3O3 nanoflake. The Eint of the most stable orientation is -26.98 kcal/mol, whereas the counterpoise-corrected energy is -22.59 kcal/mol. Noncovalent interaction index (NCI) and quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) analyses are performed to obtain insights about the behavior and the types of interactions that occur between B3O3 nanoflake and favipiravir. The results indicate the presence of hydrogen bonding between the hydrogen in the favipiravir and the oxygen in the B3O3 nanoflake in the most stable complex (FAV@B3O3-C1). The electronic properties are investigated through frontier molecular orbital analysis, dipole moments and chemical reactivity descriptors. These parameters showed the significant activity of B3O3 for favipiravir. NBO charge analysis transfer illustrated the charge transfer between the two species, and UV-VIS analysis confirmed the electronic excitation. Our work suggested a suitable drug carrier system for the antiviral drug favipiravir, which can be considered by the experimentalist for better drug delivery systems.

MICROPOROUS AND MESOPOROUS MATERIALS : THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE INTERNATIONAL ZEOLITE ASSOCIATION 2022; 343:112187. [PMID: 35999991 PMCID: PMC9389852 DOI: 10.1016/j.micromeso.2022.112187] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2022] [Revised: 08/11/2022] [Accepted: 08/14/2022] [Indexed: 05/22/2023]
Abstract
The development of fast and non-invasive techniques to detect SARS-CoV-2 virus at the early stage of the infection would be highly desirable to control the COVID-19 outbreak. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous materials with uniform porous structures and tunable pore surfaces, which would be essential for the selective sensing of the specific COVID-19 biomarkers. However, the use of MOFs materials to detect COVID-19 biomarkers has not been demonstrated so far. In this work, for the first time, we employed the density functional theory calculations to investigate the specific interactions of MOFs and the targeted biomarkers, in which the interactions were confirmed by experiment. The five dominant COVID-19 biomarkers and common exhaled gases are comparatively studied by exposing them to MOFs, namely MIL-100(Al) and MIL-100(Fe). The adsorption mechanism, binding site, adsorption energy, recovery time, charge transfer, sensing response, and electronic structures are systematically investigated. We found that MIL-100(Fe) has a higher sensing performance than MIL-100(Al) in terms of sensitivity and selectivity. MIL-100(Fe) shows sensitive to COVID-19 biomarkers, namely 2-methylpent-2-enal and 2,4-octadiene with high sensing responses as 7.44 x 105 and 9 x 107 which are exceptionally higher than those of the common gases which are less than 6. The calculated recovery times of 0.19 and 1.84 x 10-4 s are short enough to be a resuable sensor. An experimental study also showed that the MIL-100(Fe) provides a sensitivity toward 2-methylpent-2-enal. In conclusion, we suggest that MIL-100(Fe) could be used as a potential sensor for the exhaled breath analysis. We hope that our research can aid in the development of a biosensor for quick and easy COVID-19 biomarker detection in order to control the current pandemic.

Abstract
In the present research, the adsorption and release of chlormethine (CM) drug on the B24O24 nanocage have been reported in the water media and gas phase at GGA/PBE/DNP computational level. The interaction between B24O24 nanocage and CM drug shows that adsorptions of the chlormethine on B24O24 nanocage for the most stable complexes are - 1.47 to - 1.36 eV in the gas phase and water media, respectively. The CM adsorption caused a notable change in the band gap (Eg) and work function (Φ) of the B24O24 nanocage in the studied complexes. The binding of chlormethine to B24O24 also significantly increased the polarity of the drug carrier, which is a desirable property for drug delivery in biological environments. CM drugs can be released from the nanocage in the presence of an external electric field along the X-axis direction. The present study results show that the B24O24 nanocage is a possible carrier for delivering chlormethine drugs.

Abstract
The global pandemic of COVID-19, which began in late 2019, has resulted in extremely high morbidity and severe mortality worldwide, with important implications for human health, international trade, and national politics. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) is the primary pathogen causing COVID-19. Analytical chemistry played an important role in this global epidemic event, and detection of SARS-CoV-2 even became a part of daily life. Analytical chemists have devoted much effort and enthusiasm to this event, and different analytical techniques have shown very rapid development. Electrochemical biosensors are highly efficient, sensitive, and cost-effective and have been used to detect many highly pathogenic viruses long before this event. However, another fact is that electrochemical biosensors are not the technology of choice for most detection applications. This review describes for the first time the role played by electrochemical biosensors in SARS-CoV-2 detection from a bibliometric perspective. This paper analyzed 254 relevant research papers up to June 2022. The contributions of different countries and institutions to this topic were analyzed. Keyword analysis was used to explore different methodological attempts of electrochemical detection techniques. More importantly, we are trying to find an answer to the question: do electrochemical biosensors have the potential to become a genuinely employable detection technology in an outbreak of infectious disease? This review describes for the first time the role played by electrochemical biosensors in SARS-CoV-2 detection from a bibliometric perspective.![]()
