Abstract
BACKGROUND The content of trypsin will change when pancreatic diseases occur, therefore developing a high-performance method for trypsin detection is of great significance for guiding patients on medication plans and improving their prognosis. Photoelectrochemical (PEC) analysis techniques have emerged as a solution to apply for bioassays. RESULTS Herein, the Fe2O3@Bi2S3 and Nitrogen and sulfur co-doped carbon quantum dots (NSCQDs) were successfully synthesized by a hydrothermal method. Subsequently, NSCQDs/Fe2O3@Bi2S3 with a photocurrent amplification effect covered on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) electrode as the substrate material and apoferritin (APO) as a bio-recognition element to quench the photocurrent of the substrate material which can be excited with light. Due to the decomposition specifically between APO and trypsin, the photocurrent response increased. The linear range for trypsin detection showed satisfied results from 2 to 1000 ng mL-1 under optimal conditions, with a detection limit of 0.42 ng mL-1 and a recovery rate of 97.41 %-103.02 %, enabling efficient quantitative analysis of trypsin. SIGNIFICANCE In this experiment, a PEC biosensor with simple operation, low detection limit, excellent selectivity and strong stability was successfully prepared, enabling quantitative analysis of trypsin in human serum samples through the quenching-recovery mechanism. It holds great significance for diagnosis and serves as a practical method for the detection of trypsin in the future.

Abstract
A highly efficient 3D flower MoS2 (3D-FM)-based heterostructure photocatalyst (3D-FM/BiOI) was successfully obtained via a simple hydrothermal synthesis strategy. 3D-FM/BiOI showed prominent photoelectrochemical performance, distinguished stability and good selectivity. The introduction of 3D-FM, by promoting the photoelectric property attributed to it, facilitated the separation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs. Since the redox process of l-ascorbic acid (l-AA) resulted in an increasing photocurrent of 3D-FM/BiOI, a signal "switch-on" photoelectrochemical sensor (PECS) was designed to sensitively determine l-AA for the first time. Under optimized conditions, the 3D-FM/BiOI PECS worked over a wide range from 1 μM to 0.8 mM with a low detection limit of 0.05 μM (S/N = 3). The PECS was successfully exploited for l-AA sensing in human urine with excellent accuracy and applicability, demonstrating its practical precision and superb serviceability. Furthermore, the 3D-FM/BiOI PECS exhibited satisfactory selectivity and stability, providing a great potential platform for the construction of an l-AA sensor in various practical samples and complicated environments.

Abstract
Trypsin, as one of important proteases, is specific for catalyzing the hydrolysis of peptide and ester bonds containing lysine and arginine residues at the C-terminus. The level of trypsin in biological fluids can serve as a reliable and specific diagnostic biomarker for pancreatic function and its pathological changes. Herein, we demonstrate the application of phosphorescent Cu NCs for trypsin detection for the first time depending on the electron transfer between Cu NCs and cyt c. Cyt c and Cu NCs were selected as the quencher and the fluorophore, respectively. Cu NCs could bind to the positively charged cyt c through electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions, and the phosphorescence of Cu NCs was efficiently quenched by the metal-containing heme of cyt c. In the presence of trypsin, cyt c was digested, thus phosphorescence of Cu NCs remained. Therefore, a new and continuous phosphorescence assay for the detection of trypsin activity and its inhibitor screening was established. The plot of relative fluorescence versus trypsin concentration obtains a good linear detection range from 0 to 20 ng/mL (R2 = 0.9657), and a detection limit of 2 ng/mL, which is much lower than 20 ng/mL of the sensor in buffer solution because of urine amplifying the phosphorescence signal of Cu NCs based on the FRET strategy. This assay still has been successfully applied to trypsin inhibitor screening, demonstrating its potential application in drug discovery.
