[PMID: 39060331 PMCID: PMC11282311 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-68310-0] [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: 12/30/2023] [Accepted: 07/22/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Oxycodone, often used as an analgesic, is a potent opioid. While its effectiveness has been proven in the control of moderate to acute pain, excessive use of oxycodone imposes heart failure, heart palpitations, reduction of red blood cells, bone pain, and even death. Therefore, monitoring the oxycodone concentration in blood is vital for emergency care. For this purpose, a novel electrochemical sensor was designed based on a glassy carbon electrode modified with mesoporous g-C3N4 (M-C3N4), carbon nano-onions doped with nitrogen (N-CNO), and gold nanoparticles. At first, the SEM and XRD techniques were employed to characterize prepared M-C3N4 and N-CNO samples. The electro-oxidation behavior of the oxycodone was evaluated by cyclic and differential pulse voltammetric methods. Based on the influence of the potential scanning rate and solution pH on the voltammetric response of oxycodone oxidation, a redox mechanism was proposed. A 16 nM detection limit was acquired for the oxycodone analysis with a linear response in the 0.05-150 µM range. This sensor showed a remarkable ability for oxycodone detection in plasma samples. The long-term stability, superior selectivity, and reproducibility of this sensor prove its ability to measure oxycodone accurately and precisely in authentic spices.

Anal Chim Acta 2024; 1312:342686. [PMID: 38834256 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2024.342686] [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: 02/16/2024] [Revised: 04/30/2024] [Accepted: 05/02/2024] [Indexed: 06/06/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Fentanyl and its derivatives are a type of potent opioid analgesics, with the characteristics of diverse structure, high toxicity, extremely low content, and high fatality rate. Currently, they have become one of the most serious problems in international drug abuse control due to their extensive use in drug production and use. Therefore, the development of a rapid, sensitive, and accurate method for detecting trace fentanyl is of great significance. In this study, in view of its complex structure and trace concentration, a new molecular imprinting electrochemical sensor was developed through molecular simulations followed by experimental validation to detect trace fentanyl. RESULTS The process consisted of first obtaining the optimal functional monomer and its molar ratio through molecular simulations. The recognition sites of fentanyl-imprinted polymers were predicted to guide the synthesis of imprinted membranes with precision approach to ensure an efficient and accurate reaction process. Reduced graphene oxide (ErGO) was then deposited on glassy carbon electrode surface by electrochemical reduction to yield large numbers of active sites suitable for catalyzing reactions of fentanyl piperidine for promoted efficient electron transfer and amplified sensitivity of the sensor. Accordingly, fentanyl molecularly imprinted film was formed through one-step electropolymerization to yield greatly improved sensing selectivity due to the specific recognition of molecularly imprinted polymer. Under optimal experimental conditions, the fentanyl sensor showed an extended detection range of 3.84 × 10-9 mol L-1-1.72 × 10-6 mol L-1 and a detection limit of 1.28 × 10-9 mol L-1. SIGNIFICANCE A distinctive feature of this sensor is its molecularly imprinted polymerized membrane, which offers excellent specific recognition, thereby boosting the sensor's selectivity. Throughout the sensor's development process, molecular simulations were employed to steer the synthesis of molecularly imprinted polymers and predict the recognition sites of fentanyl-imprinted polymers. The experimental outcomes proved to align with the simulation data. The final sensor exhibited outstanding selectivity, repeatability, stability, and high sensitivity. The sensor was effectively used to reliably track fentanyl in human serum samples, with acceptable analytical reliability, suggesting its potential for practical applications.

[PMID: 38832283 PMCID: PMC11145211 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e31565] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2023] [Revised: 05/17/2024] [Accepted: 05/17/2024] [Indexed: 06/05/2024] Open
Abstract
The presence of heavy metals often causes significant health risks, particularly cadmium, which is known for its high toxicity. In this study, a glassy carbon electrode was successfully modified by incorporating ZnO-PVA-Graphene nanocomposite, leveraging the excellent electrical properties and electron mobility of the material. Comprehensive material analysis, including XRD, confirmed that ZnO maintained its hexagonal wurtzite crystal structure despite the addition of graphene. Moreover, FESEM analysis showed that increasing graphene concentration led to a reduction in ZnO particle size by 85, 68, and 52 nm, respectively, accompanied by a decrease in band gap energy, as verified by UV-Vis measurements. Photoluminescence tests were also conducted and the result showed a noticeable blue shift in ZnO-PVA-Graphene nanocomposites compared to ZnO-PVA, specifically in the near band-edge (NBE) UV emission within the 374-379 nm wavelength range. Through I-V characterization, the optimal graphene concentration for cadmium detection was identified as 1.5 wt% in ZnO-PVA-Graphene nanocomposites, showing an approximate ohmic response. Meanwhile, square-wave voltammetry analysis of cadmium concentrations ranging from 0 to 80 ppm produced a coefficient of determination of 0.98926 and a Limit of Detection (LOD) of 9.88 ppm. These results showed the significant potential of ZnO-PVA-Graphene nanocomposites as a promising material for further development as an effective electrode modifier, enhancing the sensitivity of detection systems.

Abstract
In this work, we report the direct electrochemical oxidation of fentanyl using commercial screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs) modified with carboxyl-functionalized carbon nanofibers (fCNFs). CNFs have surface chemistry and reactivity similar to carbon nanotubes (CNTs), yet they are easier to produce and are of a lower cost than CNTs. By monitoring the current produced during the electrochemical oxidation of fentanyl, variables such as fCNF loading, fentanyl accumulation time, electrolyte pH, and differential pulse voltammetry parameters were optimized. Under an optimized set of conditions, the fCNF/SPCEs responded linearly to fentanyl in the concentration range of 0.125-10 μM, with a limit of detection of 75 nM. The fCNF/SPCEs also demonstrated excellent selectivity against common cutting agents found in illicit drugs (e.g., glucose, sucrose, caffeine, acetaminophen, and theophylline) and interferents found in biological samples (e.g., ascorbic acid, NaCl, urea, creatinine, and uric acid). The performance of the sensor was also successfully tested using fentanyl spiked into an artificial urine sample. The straightforward electrode assembly process, low cost, ease of use, and rapid response make the fCNF/SPCEs prime candidates for the detection of fentanyl in both physiological samples and street drugs.

Abstract
Hundreds of thousands of people dying from the abuse of fentanyl and its analogs. Hence, the development of an efficient and highly accurate detection method is extremely relevant and challenging. Therefore, we proposed the introduction of oxygen defects into Fe2(MoO4)3 nanoparticles for improving the catalyst performance and combining it with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) for electrochemical detection of fentanyl and its analogs. Oxygen vacancy-rich Fe2(MoO4)3 (called r-Fe2(MoO4)3) nanoparticles were successfully synthesized and characterized in detail by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy-dispersive spectrometry (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), Raman spectra, BET, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and investigated by comparison with oxygen vacancy-poor Fe2(MoO4)3 (called p-Fe2(MoO4)3). The obtained oxygen vacancy-rich Fe2(MoO4)3 was ultrasonically composited with MWCNTs for modification of glassy carbon electrodes (GCEs) used for the electrochemical detection of fentanyl and its analogs. The modified MWCNT-GCE showed ultrasensitivity to fentanyl, sufentanil, alfentanil, and acetylfentanyl with limits of detection (LOD) of 0.006 µmol·L-1, 0.008 µmol·L-1, 0.018 µmol·L-1, and 0.024 µmol·L-1, respectively, and could distinguish among the four drugs based on their peak voltages. Besides, the obtained r-Fe2(MoO4)3/MWCNT composite also exhibited high repeatability, selectivity, and stability. It showed satisfactory detection performance on real samples, with recoveries of 70.53 ~ 94.85% and 50.98 ~ 82.54% in serum and urine for the four drugs in a concentration range 0.2 ~ 1 µM, respectively. The experimental results confirm that the introduction of oxygen vacancies effectively improves the sensitivity of fentanyl electrochemical detection, and this work provides some inspiration for the development of catalytic materials for electrochemical sensors with higher sensitivity.

Metal nanoparticles as a potential technique for the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal cancer: a comprehensive review. Cancer Cell Int 2023; 23:280. [PMID: 37981671 PMCID: PMC10657605 DOI: 10.1186/s12935-023-03115-1] [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: 04/11/2023] [Accepted: 10/27/2023] [Indexed: 11/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Gastrointestinal (GI) cancer is a major health problem worldwide, and current diagnostic and therapeutic approaches are often inadequate. Various metallic nanoparticles (MNPs) have been widely studied for several biomedical applications, including cancer. They may potentially overcome the challenges associated with conventional chemotherapy and significantly impact the overall survival of GI cancer patients. Functionalized MNPs with targeted ligands provide more efficient localization of tumor energy deposition, better solubility and stability, and specific targeting properties. In addition to enhanced therapeutic efficacy, MNPs are also a diagnostic tool for molecular imaging of malignant lesions, enabling non-invasive imaging or detection of tumor-specific or tumor-associated antigens. MNP-based therapeutic systems enable simultaneous stability and solubility of encapsulated drugs and regulate the delivery of therapeutic agents directly to tumor cells, which improves therapeutic efficacy and minimizes drug toxicity and leakage into normal cells. However, metal nanoparticles have been shown to have a cytotoxic effect on cells in vitro. This can be a concern when using metal nanoparticles for cancer treatment, as they may also kill healthy cells in addition to cancer cells. In this review, we provide an overview of the current state of the field, including preparation methods of MNPs, clinical applications, and advances in their use in targeted GI cancer therapy, as well as the advantages and limitations of using metal nanoparticles for the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal cancer such as potential toxicity. We also discuss potential future directions and areas for further research, including the development of novel MNP-based approaches and the optimization of existing approaches.

Abstract
A novel electrochemical method has been developed, based on a covalent organic framework (COF) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO), to detect fentanyl and alfentanil. COF nanomaterials with chrysanthemum morphology obtained by solvothermal reaction contain rich active sites for electrochemical catalytic reaction, thus improving the detection performance of the designed sensor. Reduced graphene oxide improves the sensor's sensitivity due to enhanced electron transfer. Under optimized experimental conditions, the fabricated electrode presents a linear range of 0.02 to 7.26 μM for alfentanil and 0.1 to 6.54 μM for fentanyl, with detection limits of 6.7 nM and 33 nM, respectively. In addition, the sensor possesses excellent selectivity, outstanding reproducibility, and acceptable stability. The proposed sensor is feasible for the reliable monitoring of fentanyl and alfentanil in human serum samples, with acceptable reliability and high potential in real-world applications. Finally, the electrochemical characteristic fingerprint of fentanyl is investigated by studying the electrochemical behavior of alfentanil and fentanyl on the electrode surface.

Abstract
Opioid misuse and overdose have caused devastating public health challenges and economic burdens, calling for the need of rapid, accurate sensitive opioid sensors. Here, we report a photonic crystal-based opioid sensor in the total internal reflection configuration, providing label-free, rapid, quantitative measurements through change of the refractive index. The one-dimensional photonic crystal with a defect layer that is immobilized with opioid antibodies acts as a resonator with an open microcavity. The highly accessible structure responds to analytes within a minute after the aqueous opioid solution is introduced, achieving the highest sensitivity of 5688.8 nm/refractive index unit (RIU) at the incident angle of 63.03°. Our sensor shows a limit of detection (LOD) of 7 ng/mL for morphine in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.4) solutions, well below the required clinical detection limit, and an LOD of 6 ng/mL for fentanyl in PBS, close to the clinical requirement. The sensor can selectively detect fentanyl from a mixture of morphine and fentanyl and be regenerated in 2 min with up to 93.66% recovery rate after five cycles. The efficacy of our sensor is further validated in artificial interstitial fluid and human urine samples.

Abstract
Imatinib mesylate, an anticancer drug, is prescribed to treat gastrointestinal stromal tumors and chronic myelogenous leukemia. A hybrid nanocomposite of N,S-doped carbon dots/carbon nanotube-poly(amidoamine) dendrimer (N,S-CDs/CNTD) was successfully synthesized and used as a significant modifier to design a new and highly selective electrochemical sensor for the determination of imatinib mesylate. A rigorous study with electrochemical techniques, such as cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry, was performed to elucidate the electrocatalytic properties of the as-prepared nanocomposite and the preparation procedure of the modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE). A higher oxidation peak current was generated for the imatinib mesylate on a N,S-CDs/CNTD/GCE surface compared to the GCE and CNTD/GCE. The N,S-CDs/CNTD/GCE showed a linear relationship between the concentration and oxidation peak current of the imatinib mesylate in 0.01-100 μM, with a detection limit of 3 nM. Finally, the imatinib mesylate's quantification in blood-serum samples was successfully performed. The N,S-CDs/CNTD/GCE's reproducibility and stability were indeed excellent.

Abstract
Electrochemical determination of synthetic opioids such as fentanyl is meaningful but still challenging no matter from a social or academic perspective. Herein, we report a series of novel electrocatalysts based on Fe-containing metal-organic frameworks and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (Fe-MOF/MWCNTs). The obtained Fe-MOF/MWCNT electrode materials all show ultrasensitivity on fentanyl determination. In particular, MOF-235/MWCNTs even exhibit an ultra-low limit of detection (LOD) of 0.03 μM with a wide linear range from 0.1 to 50 μM. Besides, this series of Fe-MOF/MWCNTs also displays excellent repeatability, selectivity, and stability. Moreover, they show good performance in real sample detection and achieve good recovery of 95.47%-102.41% and 96.62%-103.15% in blood and urine samples, respectively. This high performance in fentanyl determination is mainly contributed by the Fenton-like process and the adsorption function of the Fe-MOF. Therefore, these novel Fe-MOF/MWCNTs are promising electrocatalysts for point-of-care device fabrication and also have potential applications in fentanyl rapid test technology.

Abstract
Fentanyl was successfully determined in the current effort based on hexagonal NiO nanodisks (HG-NiO-NDs) fabricated by the hydrothermal protocol. The synergism of HG-NiO-NDs with multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), large specific surface area, and active material enabled the electrochemical sensor to show potent electrochemical behavior. Admirable performance was found for the fentanyl measurement by the MWCNT and HG-NiO-ND-modified pencil graphite electrode (MWCNT/HG-NiO-ND/PGE). The correlation of oxidation currents with the pH value, concentration, and sweep rate of supporting electrolytes was determined for the optimization of conditions to detect fentanyl. The surfaces of modified and unmodified electrodes were characterized as well. The diffusion-control processes were confirmed on the basis of anodic peak findings. The results also revealed a two-electron transfer process. The linear range was obtained to be 0.01–800.0 μM for the fentanyl concentrations on the developed electrode, with the sensitivity of 0.1044 μA/mM/cm2. The limit of detection (S/N = 3) was 6.7 nM. The results indicated the ability of the modified electrode to fabricate non-enzymatic fentanyl sensor applications.

Abstract
Simple sensing protocols for the detection of illicit drugs are needed. Electrochemical sensing is especially attractive in this respect, as its cost together with the analytical accuracy aspires to replace still frequently used colorimetric tests. In this work, we have shown that the interfacial transfer of protonated heroin can be followed at the electrified water-1,2-dichloroethane interface. We have comprehensively studied the interfacial behavior of heroin alone and in the presence of its major and abundant cutting agents, caffeine and paracetamol. To maximally increase developed sensing protocol applicability we have designed and 3D printed a platform requiring only a few microliters of the aqueous and the organic phase. The proposed sensing platform was equipped with a cavity hosting a short section of Ag/AgCl electrode, up to 20 µL of the aqueous phase and the end of the micropipette tip being used as a casing of a fused silica capillary having 25 µm as the internal pore diameter. The volume of the organic phase was equal to around 5 µL and was present inside the micropipette tip. We have shown that under optimized conditions heroin can be detected in the presence of caffeine and paracetamol existing in a sample with 10,000 times excess over the analyte of interest. The calculated limit of detection equal to 1.3 µM, linear dynamic range spanning to at least 50 µM, good reproducibility, and very low volume of needed sample is fully in line with forensic demands.

Abstract
Surgeries are a crucial medical intervention that has saved countless lives from time immemorial. To reduce pain during surgeries patients are administered with anesthetic drugs, which cause loss of sensation and thus reduce the pain involved. However, anesthetists control the effects of the drug by depending on pharmacokinetic calculations, which may vary from patient to patient, thus leading to a reduction in the quality of anesthetic care and adverse effects. To avoid these adverse effects, it is highly necessary to implement a real time monitoring of plasma drug concentration, which will adjust the drug infusion and maintain the levels of drug within therapeutic levels. To implement such a system, it is highly essential to analyze current advances in electrochemical sensor systems for different types of anesthetic drugs like opioids, intravenous anesthetics, and neuromuscular blockers. This review focuses on the present strategy of electrochemical sensors implemented for the detection of anesthetic drugs and it helps towards developing a real time drug dispensing system with respect to the plasma concentration of the drug. This analysis will contribute towards establishing highly effective real time drug dispensing systems like the total intravenous anesthesia technique and patient-controlled analgesia. Such systems will lead to better usage of anesthetic drugs and improve the quality of anesthetic care thus making surgeries safer and more painless.

Abstract
![]()
The opioid overdose
crisis in North America worsened during the
COVID-19 pandemic, with multiple jurisdictions reporting more deaths
per day due to the fentanyl-contaminated drug supply than COVID-19.
The rapid quantitative detection of fentanyl in the illicit opioid
drug supply or in bodily fluids at biologically relevant concentrations
(i.e., <80 nM) remains a significant challenge. Electroanalytical
techniques are inexpensive and can be used to rapidly detect fentanyl,
but detection limits need to be improved. Herein, we detail the development
of an electrochemical-based fentanyl analytical detection strategy
that used a glassy carbon electrode modified with electrochemically
reduced graphene oxide (ERGO) via electrophoretic deposition. The
resulting surface was further electrochemically reduced in the presence
of fentanyl to enhance the sensitivity. Multiple ERGO thicknesses
were prepared in order to prove the versatility and ability to fine-tune
the layer to the desired response. Fentanyl was detected at <10
ppb (<30 nM) with a limit of detection of 2 ppb and a calibration
curve that covered 4 orders of concentration (from 1 ppb to 10 ppm).
This method was sensitive to fentanyl analogues such as carfentanil.
Interference from the presence of 100-fold excess of other opioids
(heroin, cocaine) or substances typically found in illicit drug samples
(e.g. caffeine and sucrose) was not significant.

Abstract
Opioids are a class of drugs used to treat moderate to severe pain and have short-term adverse effects. Nevertheless, they are considered necessary for pain management. However, well-known hazards are connected with an opioid prescription, such as overuse, addiction, and overdose deaths. For example, the death rate from opioid analgesic poisoning in the USA approximately doubled, owing to the overuse and addiction of opioid analgesics. Also, opioids are a very important group of analytes in forensic chemistry, so it is necessary to use reliable, fast, and sensitive analytical tools to determine opioid analgesics. This review focuses on the opioid overdose crisis, the properties of commonly used opioid drugs, their mechanism, effects, and some chromatographic and spectroscopic detection methods are explained briefly. Then most essentially recent developments covering the last ten years in the sensitive electrochemical methods of common opioid analgesics, their innovations and features, and future research directions are presented.

Abstract
Rapid and effective differentiation and quantification of a small molecule drug, such as fentanyl, in bodily fluids are major challenges for diagnosis and personal medication. However, the current toxicology methods used to measure drug concentration and metabolites require laboratory-based testing, which is not an efficient or cost-effective way to treat patients in a timely manner. Here, we show an assay for monitoring fentanyl levels by combining the intermolecular interaction-enabled small molecule recognition (iMSR) with differential impedance analysis of conjugated polymers. The differential interactions with the designed anchor interface were transduced through the perturbance of the electric status of the flexible conducting polymer. This assay showed excellent fentanyl selectivity against common interferences, as well as in variable body fluids through either testing strips or skin patches. Directly using the patient blood, the sensor provided 1%-5% of the average deviation compared to the "gold" standard method LC-MS results in the medically relevant fentanyl range of 20-90 nM. The superior sensing properties, in conjunction with mechanical flexibility and compatibility, enabled point-of-care detection and provided a promising avenue for applications beyond the scope of biomarker detection.

Abstract
Diltiazem (DTZ) is one of the most important drugs in blood pressure that is used to treat cardiovascular diseases. With this overuse of this drug and its use for suicide, swelling and neck cramps and fever has made it important to measure it. So, this paper will give an account of modification of carbon paste electrode with the ternary-nanocomposite including reduced-graphene oxide (rGO), cadmium oxide and 1-ethyl 3- methyl imidazole chloride as ionic liquid for using the determination of DTZ in blood serum samples. Characterization of the synthesized rGO, cadmium oxide, and modified electrodes and their electrochemical performance were studied by, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and voltammetry technique. The improvement of the DTZ oxidation current by modified electrode originated from the increased electrode surface area. The optimized method was validated and the results showed that LOD = 3 nM and good linearity. Also, a linear concentration range of 0.01-150 μM with a LOD of 0.03 μM in presence methyldopa were achieved based on the electrochemical investigations. The prepared sensor showed good repeatability (RSD = 2.26%) and selectivity for DTZ determination in the real samples (relative recovery of 93-102%).

Abstract
Consumption of illicit narcotic drugs and fatal or criminal activities under their influence has become an utmost concern worldwide. These drugs influence an individual's feelings, perceptions, and emotions by altering the state of consciousness and thus can result in serious safety breaches at critical workplaces. Point-of-care drug-testing devices have become the need-of-the-hour for many sections such as the law enforcement agencies, the workplaces, etc. for safety and security. This review focuses on the recent progress on various electrochemical and optical nanosensors developed for the analysis of the most common illicit drugs (or their metabolites) such as tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cocaine (COC), opioids (OPs), amphetamines & methamphetamine, and benzodiazepine (BZDs). The paper also highlights the sensitivity and selectivity of various sensing modalities along with evolving parameters such as real-time monitoring and measurement via a smart user interface. An overall outlook of recent technological advances in point of care (POC) devices and guided insights and directions for future research is presented.

Abstract
The review describes fentanyl and its analogs as new synthetic opioids and the possibilities of their identification and determination using electrochemical methods (e.g., voltammetry, potentiometry, electrochemiluminescence) and electrochemical methods combined with various separation methods. The review also covers the analysis of new synthetic opioids, their parent compounds, and corresponding metabolites in body fluids, such as urine, blood, serum, and plasma, necessary for a fast and accurate diagnosis of intoxication. Identifying and quantifying these addictive and illicit substances and their metabolites is necessary for clinical, toxicological, and forensic purposes. As a reaction to the growing number of new synthetic opioid intoxications and increasing fatalities observed over the past ten years, we provide thorough background for developing new biosensors, screen-printed electrodes, or other point-of-care devices.

[PMID: 34627504 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2021.338983] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2021] [Revised: 08/09/2021] [Accepted: 08/22/2021] [Indexed: 01/26/2023]
Abstract
Analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) secreted in urine, blood, breath, etc. is a new method for monitoring the metabolism and biochemistry of the human body. However, due to the complexity of samples, a pre-concentration step is necessary before the final analysis with gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS). Therefore, miniaturized extraction methods such as solid-phase microextraction (SPME) can be a promising and simple pre-concentration technique. Different strategies have been adopted for the fabrication or modification of SPME fibers. This study presents the preparation and characterization of glass optical fibers coated with ZnO nanorods functionalized with gallic acid (ZnO@GA nanorod) as SPME adsorbent in GC-MS. ZnO@GA nanorods were synthesized separately and then coated onto the fibers. The coated fibers were characterized by using field emission scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive analysis of X-rays (FESEM/EDAX) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) techniques. Possessing a high surface to volume ratio of ZnO nanorods and functional groups of GA, the ZnO@GA nanorod-based SPME fibers exhibited good extraction performance for VOCs comparing with the commercial polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) coated fibers. Under optimal conditions (NaCl concentration, 30% w/v; extraction time of 25 min; pH, 5-7 and stirring rate of 400 rpm) ZnO@GA nanorods coated fibers achieved low detection limits (0.32-4.8 μg/L), low quantification limits (1.8-16.3 μg/L) and good linearity (5-1000 μg/L) for selected VOCs. The repeatability (n = 3) for a single fiber was within the range of 4.1-7.9% (intra-day) and 5.7-9.6% (inter-day) while the reproducibility (n = 3) of fiber-to-fiber were in the range of 4.7% and 9.9%. This method was successfully used for the determination of six VOCs in water and urine with satisfactory recoveries of 90-112%. ZnO@GA nanorod coated fibers, despite possessing a much thinner coating compared to the commercial fibers, revealed a better overall extraction efficiency towards VOCs. These results indicated that the ZnO@GA provided a promising alternative in sample pretreatment and analysis in GC-MS.

Abstract
Detection of illicit drug residues from wastewater provides a new route toward community-level assessment of drug abuse that is critical to public health. However, traditional chemistry analytical tools such as high-performance liquid chromatography in tandem with mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS) cannot meet the large-scale testing requirement in terms of cost, promptness, and convenience of use. In this article, we demonstrated ultra-sensitive and portable surface-enhanced Raman scattering sensing (SERS) of fentanyl, a synthetic opioid, from sewage water and achieved quantitative analysis through principal component analysis and partial least-squares regression. The SERS substrates adopted in this application were synthesized by in situ growth of silver nanoparticles on diatomaceous earth films, which show ultra-high sensitivity down to 10 parts per trillion in artificially contaminated tap water in the lab using a commercial portable Raman spectrometer. Based on training data from artificially contaminated tap water, we predicted the fentanyl concentration in the sewage water from a wastewater treatment plant to be 0.8 parts per billion (ppb). As a comparison, the HPLC-MS confirmed the fentanyl concentration was below 1 ppb but failed to provide a specific value of the concentration since the concentration was too low. In addition, we further proved the validity of our SERS sensing technique by comparing SERS results from multiple sewage water treatment plants, and the results are consistent with the public health data from our local health authority. Such SERS sensing technique with ultra-high sensitivity down to sub-ppb level proved its feasibility for point-of-care detection of illicit drugs from sewage water, which is crucial to assess public health.

Abstract
A dispersive solid-phase microextraction method based on magnetic carbon nano-onions (MCNOs) was developed for the extraction and preconcentration of some pesticides from water and vegetable samples. For more cleanup and preconcentration, a dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) method was employed after performing the first step. In this method, firstly, MCNOs were prepared and then used for adsorption of the analytes from the sample solution. After that, the adsorbed analytes were eluted with an appropriate water-miscible organic solvent and used as a dispersive solvent in the following DLLME procedure. The extracted analytes were quantified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) in selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode. Various factors affecting the method efficiency such as sorbent weight, salt effect, pH, temperature, and type and volume of eluent and extraction solvent were optimized. This method showed wide linear ranges with a coefficient of determination ≥ 0.994, and low limits of detection (0.001-0.005 ng mL-1) and quantification (0.003-0.019 ng mL-1) under optimal conditions. Also, a good precision (relative standard deviation ≤ 8.6%) for five replicates and a satisfactory accuracy (mean relative recoveries between 82 and 99%) were obtained. It can be considered as an efficient and environment friendly method for the extraction of analytes from vegetable and fruit juices and water samples.

Abstract
The search for new electrode materials has become one of the goals of modern electrochemistry. Obtaining electrodes with optimal properties gives a product with a wide application potential, both in analytics and various industries. The aim of this study was to select, from among the presented electrode materials (carbon and oxide), the one whose parameters will be optimal in the context of using them to create sensors. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry techniques were used to determine the electrochemical properties of the materials. On the other hand, properties such as hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity and their topological structure were determined using contact angle measurements and confocal microscopy, respectively. Based on the research carried out on a wide group of electrode materials, it was found that transparent conductive oxides of the FTO (fluorine doped tin oxide) type exhibit optimal electrochemical parameters and offer great modification possibilities. These electrodes are characterized by a wide range of work and high chemical stability. In addition, the presence of a transparent oxide layer allows for the preservation of valuable optoelectronic properties. An important feature is also the high sensitivity of these electrodes compared to other tested materials. The combination of these properties made FTO electrodes selected for further research.

Abstract
Carbon nano-onions are emerging electrode materials in biosensing due to their high conductivity and biocompatibility. Phenoxy-based herbicides are a source of environmental contamination that can be detected using their property to inhibit the activity of some enzymes. Here we report a biosensor based on peroxidase immobilized on carbon nano-onions in a cyclodextrin polymer matrix for the amperometric detection of 2,4-D and 2,4,5-T. The inhibition mechanism of 2,4-D and 2,4,5-T on peroxidase activity was first elucidated by activity measurements and molecular docking. The biosensor was characterized by electrochemical and microscopy methods and applied to the amperometric detection of these herbicides. The incorporation of carbon nano-onions enhanced the sensitivity of the biosensor and improved its stability and repeatability. The application of the developed biosensor to the detection of 2,4-D in soil and 2,4,5-T in river water samples is also reported.

Abstract
A screen-printed electrode (SPE) is described modified with sulfur-tin oxide nanoparticles (S@SnO2NP) for the determination of entacapone (ENT) in the presence of other medicines against Parkinson's disease (PD). The S@SnO2NP was synthesized through the hydrothermal method and used in the modification of the SPE. The smart utilization of the S@SnO2NP and the SPE provided excellent properties such as high surface area and current density amplification by embedding an efficient sensing interface for highly selective electrochemical measurement. Under optimized experimental conditions, the anodic peak current related to the ENT oxidation onto the sensor surface at 0.46 V presented a linear response towards different ENT concentration sin the range 100 nM to 75 μM. The limit of detection (LOD) and electrochemical sensitivity were estimated to be 0.010 μM and 2.27 μA·μM-1·cm-2, respectively. The applicability of the sensor was evaluated during ENT determination in the presence of other conventional medicines againts, including levodopa (LD), carbidopa (CD), and pramipexole (PPX). The results of the analysis of human urine and pharmaceutical formulation as real samples using the developed sensor were in good agreement withre sults of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) as a standard method. These findings demonstrated that the strategy based on the SPE is a cost-effective platform creating a promising candidate for practical determination of ENT in routine clinical testing.Graphical abstract.

Abstract
Self-assembled hierarchical nanostructures are slowly superseding their conventional counterparts for use in biosensors. These morphologies show high surface area with tunable porosity and packing density. Modulating the interfacial interactions and subsequent particle assembly occurring at the water-and-oil interface in inverse miniemulsions, are amongst the best strategies to stabilize various type of hollow nanostructures. The paper presents a successful protocol to obtain CeO2 hollow structures based biosensors that are useful for glucose to protein sensing. The fabricated glucose sensor is able to deliver high sensitivity (0.495 μA cm-2 nM-1), low detection limit (6.46 nM) and wide linear range (0 nM to 600 nM). CeO2 based bioelectrode can also be considered as a suitable candidate for protein sensors. It can detect protein concentrations varying from 0 to 30 µM, which is similar or higher than most reports in the literature. The limit of detection (LOD) for protein was ∼0.04 µM. Therefore, the hollow CeO2 electrodes, with excellent reproducibility, stability and repeatability, open a new area of application for cage-frame type particles.

Abstract
With the development of nanomaterials in electrochemical sensors, the use of nanostructures to modify the electrode surface has been shown to improve the kinetics of the electron transfer process. In this study, a sensor was developed for the electrochemical determination of Acyclovir (ACV) based on the modified carbon paste electrode (CPE) by CdO/Fe3O4. The magnetic CdO nanoparticles characterization was studied by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). To study of the modified CPE surface morphology, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used. At the optimal conditions, a noteworthy enhancement in the electrochemical behavior of ACV was observed at the surface of the modified CPE compared to the unmodified CPE. A detection limit of 300 nM and a linear range of 1–100 μM were obtained for the quantitative monitoring of ACV at the modified CPE surface using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) in phosphate buffer. The RSD% (relative standard deviation) of the electrode response was <4.3% indicating the development of a high precision method. Also, satisfactory results were obtained in the determination of ACV with the modified electrode in tablet, blood serum, and urine samples with a satisfactory relative recovery (RR%) in the range of 94.0–104.4%.
