Abstract
Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) is commonly released from plastics in aqueous environment, which can disrupt endocrine system and cause adverse effects on public health. There is a pressing need to highly sensitive detect DEHP. Herein, a near-infrared (NIR) light-driven lab-on-paper cathodic photoelectrochemical aptasensing platform integrated with AgInS2/Cu2O/FeOOH photocathode and "Y"-like ternary conjugated DNA nanostructure-mediated "ON-OFF" catalytic switching of hemin monomer-to-dimer was established for ultrasensitive DEHP detection. Profiting from the collaborative roles of the effective photosensitization of NIR-response AgInS2 and the fast hole extraction of FeOOH, the NIR light-activated AgInS2/Cu2O/FeOOH photocathode generated a markedly enhanced photocathodic signal. The dual hemin-labelled "Y"-like ternary conjugated DNA nanostructures made the hemin monomers separated in space and they maintained highly active to catalyze in situ generation of electron acceptors (O2). The hemin monomers were relocated in close proximity with the help of target-induced allosteric change of DNA nanostructures, which could spontaneously dimerize into catalytically inactive hemin dimers and fail to mediate electron acceptors generation, resulting in a decreased photocathodic signal. Therefore, the ultrasensitive DEHP detection was realized with a linear response range of 1 pM-500 nM and a detection limit of 0.39 pM. This work rendered a promising prototype to construct powerful paper-based photocathodic aptasensing system for sensitive and accurate screening of DEHP in aqueous environment.

Abstract
A novel iridium (III) complex bearing boron dipyrromethene (Bodipy) as the light-harvesting antenna has been synthesized and is firstly employed as photosensitizer to assemble a dye-sensitized NiO photocathode. The assembled photocathode exhibits significantly improved photoelectrochemical (PEC) performance. Integrating the prepared photocathode with hybridization chain reaction (HCR)--based signal amplification strategy, a cathodic PEC biosensor is proposed for the detection of microRNA-133a (miRNA-133a). In the presence of the target, HCR is triggered to form long duplex concatamers on the photocathode, which allows numerous manganese porphyrins (MnPP) to bind in the dsDNA groove. With the help of H2O2, MnPP with peroxidase-like activity catalyzes 4--chloro-1-naphthol (4-CN) to produce benzo--4--chlorohexadienone (4-CD) precipitate on the electrode, leading to a significant decrease of photocurrent signal. The decreased photocurrent correlates linearly with the target concentration from 0.1 fM to 1 nM with a detection limit of 66.2 aM (S/N = 3). The proposed PEC strategy exhibits delightful selectivity, reproducibility and stability.

Abstract
In recent years, the development of miniature and portable sensors has been a major focus of research. PEC self-powered sensors have emerged as a potential solution to the power supply issue, eliminating the need for external power supplies and operating without bias voltage. This study developed a ZnO/Au/GaN sensor for highly sensitive detection of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP). The sensor uses GaN substrates with nanogold films to provide an auxiliary bias voltage, promoting high photogenerated current density. Using ZnO/Au/GaN as a photoanode resulted in significantly higher photocurrent generated by the sensor compared to Au/GaN or ZnO/ITO alone. To enable selective detection of AFP, antibody modification of the ZnO nanorod arrays was employed. The linear range of the sensor response to AFP was determined to be 0.080-5.0 ng/mL, with an impressively low detection limit of 0.027 ng/mL (S/N = 3). These results demonstrate the potential of this self-powered sensor for detecting AFP content in human serum samples. Overall, this study presents a novel approach for developing highly sensitive and selective self-powered sensors for biomarker detection, which could facilitate early detection and clinical diagnosis of various types of cancer.

Abstract
This research aims to explore the potential application of this approach in the production of biosensor chips. The biosensor chip is utilized for the identification and examination of early-stage lung cancer cells. The findings of the optical microscope were corroborated by the field emission scanning electron microscopy, which provided further evidence that the growth of MoS2 is uniform and that there is minimal disruption in the electrode, hence minimizing the likelihood of an open circuit creation. Furthermore, the bilayer structure of the produced MoS2 has been validated through the utilization of Raman spectroscopy. A research investigation was undertaken to measure the photoelectric current generated by three various types of clinical samples containing lung cancer cells, specifically the CL1, NCI-H460, and NCI-H520 cell lines. The findings from the empirical analysis indicate that the coefficient of determination (R-Square) for the linear regression model was approximately 98%. Furthermore, the integration of a double-layer MoS2 film resulted in a significant improvement of 38% in the photocurrent, as observed in the device's performance.

Abstract
Herein, a novel photocathodic nanocomposite poly{4,8-bis[5-(2-ethylhexyl)-thiophen-2-yl] benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b']dithiophene-2,6-diyl-alt-3-fluoro-2-[(2-ethylhexyl)-carbonyl]thieno[3,4-b]thiophene-4,6-diyl}/phthalocyanine zinc (PTB7-Th/ZnPc) with high photoelectric conversion efficiency under long-wavelength illumination was prepared to construct an ultrasensitive biosensor for the detection of microRNA-21 (miRNA-21), accompanied by a prominent anti-interference capability toward reductive substances. Impressively, the new heterojunction PTB7-Th/ZnPc nanocomposite could not only generate a strong cathodic photocurrent to improve the detection sensitivity under long-wavelength illumination (660 nm) but also effectively avoid the high damage of biological activity caused by short-wavelength light stimulation. Accordingly, by coupling with rolling circle amplification (RCA)-triggered DNA amplification to form functional biquencher nanospheres, a PEC biosensor was fabricated to realize the ultrasensitive analysis of miRNA-21 in the concentration range of 0.1 fM to 10 nM with a detection limit as low as 32 aM. This strategy provided a novel long-wavelength illumination-induced photocurrent enhancement photoactive material for a sensitive and low-damage anti-interference bioassay and early clinical disease diagnosis.

Abstract
The building of practical biosensors that have anti-interference abilities against biofouling of nonspecific proteins and biooxidation of reducing agents in actual biological matrixes remains a great challenge. Herein, a robust photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensor capable of accurate detection in human serum was pioneered through the integration of a new engineered branching peptide (EBP) into a synergetic dual-photoelectrode system. The synergetic dual-photoelectrode system involved the tandem connection of a C3N4/TiO2 photoanode and a AuPt/PANI photocathode, while the EBP as a dual-functional antifouling and recognition probe featured an inverted Y-shaped configuration with one recognition backbone and two antifouling branches. Such an EBP enables a simple procedure for electrode modification and an enhanced antifouling nature compared to a regular linear peptide (LP), as theoretically supported by the results from molecular dynamics simulations. The as-developed PEC biosensor had a higher photocurrent response and a good antioxidation property inherited from the photoanode and photocathode, respectively. Targeting the model protein biomarker of cardiac troponin I (cTnI), this biosensor achieved good performances in terms of high sensitivity, specificity, and anti-interference.

Abstract
Sesamol (SM) is a potent natural antioxidant that can quench free radicals and modulate the cholinergic system in the brain, thereby ameliorating memory and cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease patients. Moreover, the total antioxidant capacity can be amplified by synergistic interactions between different antioxidants. Here, we constructed a ternary heterojunction graphitic carbon nitride/cupric sulfide/titanium dioxide (g-C3N4/CuS/TiO2) photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensor for the quantification of SM and its synergistic interactions with other antioxidants. Crucially, the Schottky barrier in ternary semiconductors considerably enhances electron transfer. The PEC sensor showed a wide linear range for SM detection, ranging from 2 to 1277 μmol L-1, and had a limit of detection of 1.8 μmol L-1. Remarkably, this sensing platform could evaluate the synergism between SM and five typical lipid-soluble antioxidants: tert-butyl hydroquinone, vitamin E, butyl hydroxyanisole, propyl gallate, and butylated hydroxytoluene. Owing to its low redox potential, SM could reduce antioxidant radicals and promote their regeneration, which increased the overall antioxidant performance. The g-C3N4/CuS/TiO2 PEC sensor exhibited high sensitivity, satisfactory selectivity, and stability, and was successfully applied for SM determination in both soybean and peanut oils. The findings of this study provide guidance for the development of nutritional foods, nutrition analysis, and the treatment of diseases caused by free radicals.

Abstract
Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are a promising class of nanomaterials for developing new photoelectrodes and photoelectrochemistry systems for energy storage, transfer, and biosensing applications. These materials have unique electronic and photophysical properties and can be used as optical nanoprobes in displays, biosensors, imaging, optoelectronics, energy storage and energy harvesting. Researchers have recently been exploring the use of QDs in photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensors, which involve exciting a QD-interfaced photoactive material with a flashlight source and generating a photoelectrical current as an output signal. The simple surface properties of QDs also make them suitable for addressing issues related to sensitivity, miniaturization, and cost-effectiveness. This technology has the potential to replace current laboratory practices and equipment, such as spectrophotometers, used for testing sample absorption and emission. Semiconductor QD-based PEC sensors offer simple, fast, and easily miniaturized sensors for analyzing a variety of analytes. This review summarizes the various strategies for interfacing QD nanoarchitectures for PEC sensing, as well as their signal amplification. PEC sensing devices, particularly those used for the detection of disease biomarkers, biomolecules (glucose, dopamine), drugs, and various pathogens, have the potential to revolutionize the biomedical field. This review discusses the advantages of semiconductor QD-based PEC biosensors and their fabrication methods, with a focus on disease diagnostics and the detection of various biomolecules. Finally, the review provides prospects and considerations for QD-based photoelectrochemical sensor systems in terms of their sensitivity, speed, and portability for biomedical applications.

Abstract
In this work, a novel reduction-accelerated quenching of manganese porphyrin (MnPP) based signal-off cathode photochemical (PEC) biosensor by using Au nano-flower/organic polymer (PTB7-Th) heterojunction as platform was proposed for ultrasensitive detection of Hg2+. Firstly, the photoactive PTB7-Th with Au nano-flower on electrode could form a typical Mott-Schottky heterojunction for acquiring an extremely high cathode signal. Meanwhile, the presence of target Hg2+ could bring in the formation of T-Hg2+-T based scissor-like DNA walker, which thus activated efficient Mg2+-specific DNAzyme based cleavage recycling to shear hairpin H2 on electrode to exposure abundant trigger sites of hybridization chain reaction (HCR) for in-situ decoration of quencher MnPP. Here, besides the steric hinderance and light competition effect of MnPP decorated DNA nanowires attributing to signal decrease, we for the first time testified the MnPP reduction-accelerated quenching that constantly consumed the photo-generated electron by using cyclic voltammetry (CV). As a result, the proposed biosensor had excellent sensitivity and selectivity to Hg2+ in the range of 1 fM-10 nM with a detection limit of 0.48 fM. The actual sample analysis showed that the biosensor could reliably and quantitatively identify Hg2+, indicating an excellent application prospect in routine detection.

Abstract
The accurate detection of H2O2 is crucial in oxidase-based cathodic photoelectrochemical enzymatic bioanalysis but will be easily compromised in the conventional photoelectrode-electrolyte diphase system due to the fluctuation of oxygen levels and the similar reduction potential between oxygen and H2O2. Herein, a solid-liquid-air triphase bio-photocathode based on a superhydrophobic three-dimensional (3D) porous micro-nano-hierarchical structured CuxO@TiO2 film that was constructed by controlling the wettability of the electrode surface is reported. The triphase photoelectrochemical system ensures an oxygen-rich interface microenvironment with constant and sufficiently high oxygen concentration. Moreover, the 3D porous micro-nano-hierarchical structures possess abundant active catalytic sites and a multidimensional electron transport pathway. The synergistic effect of the improved oxygen supply and the photoelectrode architecture greatly stabilizes and enhances the kinetics of the enzymatic reaction and H2O2 cathodic reaction, resulting in a 60-fold broader linear detection range and a higher accuracy compared with the conventional solid-liquid diphase system.

Abstract
In the study, a photoelectrochemical (PEC) immunosensor based on dual-photosensitive electrodes was developed for cardiac troponin I (cTnI) detection. The sensing photocathode with biometric functions was prepared by CuInS2 and narrow band gap semiconductor In2S3 as the counter electrode. In this way, the separation of photoanode and biometric events was realized, and the ability of stability of the immunosensor could be effectively improved. Moreover, the attraction to the photogenerated electrons (e-) from photoanode would be increased by the abundant holes (h+) of photocathode, under the radiation of light. This tremendously improves the photoelectric response, which further improves the sensitivity of the immunosensor. The controllable-synthesis uncomplicated photoelectric material not only accords with the principle of simplicity of electrode modification but also makes the immunosensor more conducive to the practical application. Additionally, even in the case of zero bias voltage, the constructed PEC immunosensor can operate with high efficiency, namely, self-powered. The immunosensor could provide the quantitative readout photocurrent to a concentration of cTnI in the range of 0.10 pg/mL to 1.00 μg/mL and the detection limit was 0.0113 pg/mL under the optimal experimental conditions. With favorable performance in terms of anti-interference, stability, specificity and reproducibility, this immunosensor will provide new prospects for general PEC bioanalysis development.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic hybrid materials are rarely applied in photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensing because of the serious charge-carrier recombination in organic conjugated polymers. In this work, a series of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT)/ZnIn2S4 hybrid flower-shaped microspheres were synthesized using ionic liquids (ILs) as the supporting electrolyte for EDOT electropolymerization and as the regulating reagent for controlling ZnIn2S4 growth, respectively. It was found that the hybrid material [HOEMIM]NTf2-PEDOT/[HOEMIM]BF4-ZnIn2S4 ([HOEMIM]+: 1-hydroxyethyl-3-methylimidazolium cation; NTf2-: bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide) was the optimal one, with a smooth, transparent, and continuous polymer film covering the uniform and ordered cross-linked nanosheet arrays. The hybrid material could produce a high anodic photocurrent, which was about 78 times as high as that produced by the [HOEMIM]BF4-ZnIn2S4. The enhancement effect should be the highest among all the organic-inorganic hybrid materials reported so far. This was related to its unique micromorphology structure, p-n heterojunction, and the coexisting ILs, which restrained the charge-carrier recombination in PEDOT and enhanced PEDOT sensitization to ZnIn2S4. Then, a carcinoembryonic antigen PEC immunosensor was constructed based on the photoanodic sensing platform, and it exhibited good performance. Furthermore, the [HOEMIM]BF4-ZnIn2S4 was treated with NaClO solution to create the [HOEMIM]NTf2-PEDOT/[HOEMIM]BF4-S-ZnwInxSyOz general platform for both photoanodic and photocathodic sensing. As a proof of concept, L-cysteine and dissolved oxygen were used as models for photoanodic and photocathodic sensing, respectively. The results demonstrated that the general PEC platform was quite competent. This work opens up a window for the design of organic-inorganic hybrid PEC materials and will promote the application of such hybrid materials in PEC biosensing.

Abstract
The investigations on the generation, separation, and interfacial-redox-reaction processes of the photoinduced carriers are of paramount importance for realizing efficient photoelectrochemical (PEC) detection. However, the sluggish interfacial reactions of the photogenerated carriers, combined with the need for appropriate photoactive layers for sensing, remain challenges for the construction of advanced PEC platforms. Here, as a proof of concept, well-defined Fe single-atom catalysts (Fe SACs) were integrated on the surface of semiconductors, which amplified the PEC signals via boosting oxygen reduction reaction. Besides, Fe SACs were evidenced with efficient peroxidase-like activity, which depresses the PEC signals through the Fe SACs-mediated enzymatic precipitation reaction. Harnessing the oxygen reduction property and peroxidase-like activity of Fe SACs, a robust PEC sensing platform was successfully constructed for the sensitive detection of acetylcholinesterase activity and organophosphorus pesticides, providing guidelines for the employment of SACs for sensitive PEC analysis.

Abstract
In this paper, a quantitative cathodic photoelectrochemical aptasensor is described by using black phosphorous quantum dots (BPQDs) as photoactive material and assisted by heme as electron acceptor for sensing of amyloid β peptide (Aβ). Specifically, BPQDs were synthesized by solvothermal method and characterized by various techniques. The as-prepared BPQDs were assembled on the transparent indium tin oxide electrode, and the positively charged poly-l-lysine (PLL) was then absorbed onto BPQDs via electronic interaction. Subsequently, the aptamer as the specific recognition element for Aβ oligomer was introduced on the BPQDs-PLL modified electrode. After bound with heme to form Aβ-heme complex, Aβ oligomer was simultaneously captured by the aptamer on the electrode, resulting in an enhanced photocurrent response. Under the optimized conditions, the present PEC sensor reveals a good linear response to Aβ peptide ranging from 1.0 fM to 100 nM with a detection limit of 0.87 fM. The present signal-on cathodic PEC bioassay possesses the potential to create a new paradigm in amplified PEC assays that could provide outstanding performance for bioanalysis.

Abstract
As a new electrochemical sensing concept, a self-powered sensor shows a good application prospect in the field of analysis. However, it is still a great challenge to improve the anti-interference capability of sensors through reasonable design. In this study, we investigated the difference between the single photoanode and photocathode self-powered sensor and combined the advantages of these two aspects to fabricate a mediator-free self-powered aptasensor based on the dual-photoelectrode system, which combined the biological events from the photocathode. The biological events occurred at the photocathode could avoid the interference caused by the generated hole oxidation of reducing small molecules in the real sample on the photoanode surface, which was helpful to enhance the anti-interference capability of the sensor. Moreover, due to the sufficient Fermi level differentiation between two photoelectrodes, the redox mediator was not necessary. This could avoid the redox reaction caused by the introduction of extra electron donors or electron acceptors occurring before the photoelectrical behavior, thus improving the accuracy of the sensor. According to the influence of the generated biological conjugate on the external circuit, electron transmission between interfaces, and the obstruction of visible light irradiation, the sensitive and accurate detection of the analytical model was achieved. This work provided a proof-of-concept for the establishment of a mediator-free dual-photoelectrode self-powered sensing platform with high sensitivity and strong anti-interference performance.

Abstract
This work reports an efficient [(C6)2Ir(dppz)]+PF6- (C6 = coumarin 6 and dppz = dipyridophenazine)-sensitized NiO photocathode and its application in photoelectrochemical (PEC) bioanalysis field for the first time. This dye-sensitized NiO photocathode was found to exhibit a markedly enhanced cathodic photocurrent. A sensitive cathodic PEC platform was proposed integrating the as-prepared photocathode with enzyme-free cascaded amplification strategies of the catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) and the hybridization chain reaction (HCR) for DNA methyltransferase (MTase) assay. A hairpin DNA(HDam) with specific recognition site of Dam MTase in its stem was designed. The site of HDam was methylated in the presence of Dam MTase and then cut by endonuclease DpnI. The released loop fragment, as an initiator, triggered the CHA circuit and the follow-up HCR circuit, resulting in long dsDNA concatemers on the ITO electrode. Numerous [(C6)2Ir(dppz)]+PF6- were intercalated into dsDNA, and highly efficient signal amplification was realized. Benefiting from the superior iridium(III) complex-sensitized NiO photocathode and effective amplification strategy, a detection limit of 0.0028 U/mL for the determination of Dam MTase was achieved. Moreover, this work further demonstrated that these proposed tactics could be applied to screen Dam MTase activity inhibitors.

Abstract
The design and development of a 3D hierarchical CdS/NiO heterojunction and its application in a self-powered cathodic photoelectrochemical (PEC) bioanalysis is introduced. Specifically, NiO nanoflakes (NFs) were in situ formed on carbon fibers via a facile liquid-phase deposition method followed by an annealing step and subsequent integration with CdS quantum dots (QDs). The glucose oxidase (GOx) was then coated on the photocathode to allow the determination of glucose. Under 5 W 410 nm LED light and at a working voltage of 0.0 V (vs. Ag/AgCl), this method can assay glucose concentrations down to 1.77×10-9 M. The linear range was 5×10-7 M to 1×10-3 M, and the relative standard deviation (RSD) was below 5%. The photocathodic biosensor achieved target detection with high sensitivity and selectivity. This work is expected to stimulate more passion in the development of innovative hierarchical heterostructures for advanced self-powered photocathodic bioanalysis. Design of 3D hierarchical CdS/NiO heterojunction and its application in a self-powered cathodic photoelectrochemical (PEC) bioanalysis.

Abstract
With the high sensitivity and anti-interference provided by a dual Z-scheme structure photoanode and a two-electrode system, a high-performance self-powered photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptasensor for oxytetracycline (OTC) detection was established in this work. Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) with excellent photoelectric properties was used to be combined with WO3 and MnO2 to form a kind of dual Z-scheme heterojunction. The designed unique structure and the complementary performances of the three materials collectively guaranteed the highly stable photocurrent output of the photoanode due to the wide range of light absorption and the high separation rate of electron-hole pairs. The aptamer-based cathode modified with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and Au nanoparticles (Au NPs) provided high conductivity and aptamer-binding sites, which brought excellent selective recognition of OTC as well as the self-powered capacity by receiving electrons from the photoanode. In the PEC sensing of OTC, the device presented a wide detection range from 1 pM to 150 nM and a low detection limit of 0.1 pM. Besides, the developed PEC aptasenor showed good selectivity, reproducibility, and stability, so as to be applied to real samples. The proposed PEC sensing method can be considered an effective and promising direction for the detection of antibiotics in the future.

Abstract
An intriguing self-powered cathodic photoelectrochemical (PEC) microfluidic aptasensor with enhanced cathodic photocurrent response is proposed for sensitive detection of prostate-specific antigen (PSA). The self-powered system is constructed by a cadmium sulfide-sensitized zinc oxide nanorod array (CdS/ZnO NA) as a photoanode with an iodide-doped bismuth oxychloride flower-array (I0.2:BiOCI0.8) as a photocathode, which can generate the electrical output under visible light irradiation with no external power supply. In addition, the p-type semiconductor I0.2:BiOCI0.8 with a special internal electric field between the iodide ion layer and the [Bi2O2]2+ layer could increase the cathodic photocurrent response by facilitating the separation of electron/hole pairs under visible light excitation. It is worth noting that dissolved oxygen as an electron acceptor can be reduced by the photogenerated electron to form a superoxide radical (•O2-) in the self-powered cathodic PEC system. The further enhanced cathodic photocurrent response can be achieved by eliminating •O2- that reacts with the luminol anion radical (L•-) to produce chemiluminescence emission, which serves as an inner excitation light source. What is more exciting is that the integration of the photoanode and the photocathode into a microfluidic chip could realize automatic sample injection and detection. On this basis, the proposed aptasensor presents excellent reproducibility and high sensitivity for detecting PSA and exhibits a good linearity range (50 fg·mL-1 to 50 ng·mL-1) with a low detection limit (25.8 fg·mL-1), which opens up a new horizon of potential for sensitively detecting other kinds of disease markers.

Abstract
At present, enzyme-mediated signal amplification strategies have been widely applied in photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensing systems, while the introduction of natural enzymes onto the surface of photoelectrodes inevitably obstructs the electron transfer due to their insulating properties as proteins, leading to severe damage to photocurrent. In this work, the PdPt bimetallic nanozymes with the efficient peroxidase-like activity were used as alternatives to natural enzymes and amplified PEC biosensing signals via their efficient enzymatic reaction and remarkable enhancement in photocurrent. As a result, photoactive CdS nanorods modified with PdPt bimetallic nanozymes showed a boosted PEC performance compared with the pristine CdS nanorods due to the localized surface plasmon resonance effect and Schottky junction. On the basis of the as-prepared CdS/PdPt photoelectrode, a sensitive split-type glucose oxidase-mediated PEC immunoassay for carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) detection was successfully constructed. Along with the sandwich immunocomplexing, the subsequently produced hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) can oxidize 4-chloro-1-naphthol into insoluble precipitates to inhibit photocurrent and simultaneously trigger the bio-etching of CdS to further restrain photocurrent signals due to the excellent peroxidase-mimicking activity of PdPt nanozymes. Owing to the synergistic signal amplification fulfilled by PdPt nanozymes, an ultrasensitive immunoassay of CEA was realized with a wider linear range from 1 to 5000 pg/mL and a low detection limit of 0.21 pg/mL, opening a new avenue for building ultrasensitive PEC biosensors with nanozymes.

Abstract
Due to the inherent mechanism limitation of photocatalytic fuel cell based self-powered biosensors (PFC-SPBs), it was difficult to distinguish the power density of various photoactive materials or recognition events in one detection process, which made it lack multitarget quantitative capacity. In order to solve this problem, we proposed an electron-transfer-regulated conversion strategy for the construction of multiplexed PFC-SPBs. Herein, the n-type CdS/Fe2O3 nanorod array (NR) heterojunction and p-type CuBr semiconductor were used as photoactive materials to prepare the photoanode and photocathode. Based on the appropriate Fermi level differentiation between these two photoelectrodes, a self-powered sensing platform driven by visible light without external energy supply was achieved. In this design, two kinds of common and easily coexisting mycotoxins OTA and AFB1 acted as model analytes. The coupling of "signal off" and "signal on" was realized by controlling the electronic transmission on the interface between the photoanode and photocathode, so as to achieve the simultaneous detection of two mycotoxins. This work established a proof-of-concept for the integration of a dual-photoelectrode with dual-assay that could provide the innovative inspiration for the formation of a general multiplexed self-powered sensing platform.

Abstract
Benefiting from the maximum atom-utilization efficiency and distinct structural features, single-atom catalysts open a new avenue for the design of more functional catalysts, whereas their bioapplications are still in their infancy. Due to the advantages, platinum single atoms supported by cadmium sulfide nanorods (Pt SAs-CdS) are synthesized to build an ultrasensitive photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensing platform. With the decoration of Pt SAs, the PEC signal of CdS is significantly boosted. Furthermore, theory calculations indicate the positively charged Pt SAs could change the charge distribution and increase the excited carrier density of CdS. Meanwhile, it also suggests that Cu2+ can severely hinder the photoexcitation and electron-hole separation of CdS. As a proof of concept, prostate-specific antigen is chosen as the target analyte to demonstrate the superiority of the Pt SAs-CdS-based PEC sensing system. As a result, the PEC biosensor based on Pt SAs-CdS exhibits outstanding detection sensitivity and promising applicability.

Abstract
A cathodic photoelectrochemical sensor has been developed for the determination of exosomes, based on a dual-signal reduction strategy. A heterostructure of NiO/BiOI/Au NP/CdSe was synthesized as a photoelectrochemical sensing interface, which is able to suppress the recombination of electron-hole pairs and produce a higher photocurrent. The obtained materials were characterized, and the mechanism for the generation of the cathodic photocurrent was proposed. CdSe QDs (quantum dots) modified with DNA2 were assembled on the electrode through the hybridization with EpCAM aptamer on the surface of ITO/NiO/BiOI/Au NP. The introduction of CdSe QDs to the electrode increases the photocurrent.The recognition of exosomes with aptamer DNA led to the separation of CdSe QDs from the electrode, which in turn caused the decrease of photocurrents. Meanwhile, the big volume of exosomes hinders the electron transfer between the electrode and electrolyte. Due to the dual reduction effect, a sensitive PEC sensor was obtained with a detection limit of 1.2 × 102 particles/μL exosomes (λex = 430 nm, bias voltage = - 0.1 V). The cathodic photoelectrochemical sensor showed good selectivity, performed well in a complex biological environment and could be used to distinguishbreast cancer patients from healthy individuals.

Abstract
Herein, we describe a customized approach for facile preparation of three-dimensional (3D) NiO nanoflakes (NFs)/carbon fiber meshwork (CFM) and its validation as a common photocathode matrix for photoelectrochemical (PEC) bioanalysis, which to our knowledge has not been reported. Specifically, 3D NiO NFs/CFM was fabricated by a sequential liquid phase deposition and annealing process, which was then characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectrum, UV-vis absorption spectra and N2 adsorption-desorption measurement. Sensitized by BiOI and incorporated with an alkaline phosphatase (ALP)/tyrosinase (TYR) bi-enzyme cascade system, a sensitive split-type cathodic PEC bioanalysis for the determination of ALP was achieved. This method can detect ALP concentrations down to 3 × 10-5 U L-1 with a linear response range of 0.001-10 U L-1. Moreover, this proposed system exhibited good selectivity, stability and excellent performance for real sample analysis. This research features the facile preparation of 3D NiO NFs/CFM that could acts as a universal matrix for photocathodic analysis, and is envisioned to stimulate more effort for advanced 3D photocathode for PEC bioanalysis and beyond.

Abstract
Accurate and sensitive detection of targets in practical biological matrixes such as blood, plasma, serum, or tissue fluid is a frontier issue for most biosensors since the coexistence of both potential reducing agents and protein molecules has the possibility of causing signal interference. Herein, aiming at detection in a complex environment, an advanced and robust peptide-based photocathodic biosensor, which integrated a recognition peptide with an antifouling peptide in one probe electrode, was first proposed. Selecting human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) as a model target, the recognition peptide with the sequence PPLRINRHILTR was first anchored on the CuBi2O4/Au (CBO/Au) photocathode and then the antifouling peptide with the sequence EKEKEKEPPPPC was further anchored to generate an antifouling biointerface. The peptide-based photocathodic biosensor demonstrated excellent anti-interference to both nonspecific proteins and reducing agents because of the capability of the antifouling peptide. It also exhibited good sensitivity owing to the utilization of the recognition peptide rather than an antibody probe. This peptide-integrated method offers a new perspective for practical applications of photocathodic biosensors.

Abstract
Developing low-cost and efficient methods to enhance the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) intensity of luminophores is highly desirable and challenging. Herein, we develop a synergistic promotion strategy based on three types of co-reaction accelerators to achieve an efficient SnO2 quantum dots (SnO2 QDs)-based ternary ECL system. Specifically, the MnO2 nanoflowers (MnO2 NFs), Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) and hemin/G-quadruplex were rationally selected as co-reaction accelerators. Owing to the synergistic effect, the deft integration of three types of co-reaction accelerators enabled better structural stability, more exposed catalytic active sites, and faster charge transfer, thus more effectively facilitating the reduction of co-reactant (S2O82-) compared with that of the single co-reaction accelerator. To demonstrate the practical utility of this principle, an "on-off-super on" ECL biosensor was constructed in combination with a 3D DNA walker, which showed a superior linear range (10 aM-100 pM) and a low detection limit (2.9 aM) for the highly-sensitive miRNA-21 detection. In general, this work firstly reported that three types of co-reaction accelerators were deftly integrated to remarkably amplify the ECL emission of SnO2 QDs, and provided brand-new perspectives for research on the ingenious design of the structure and component of highly efficient co-reaction accelerators.

Abstract
Photocathodic bioassays have shown great potential to apply in real bio-sample detection owning to their intrinsic abilities against interference from reductive species. However, the pursuit of photocathodic bioassays with excellent detection performance is still in the infancy. Herein, an advanced signal amplifier of platinum-based nanocatalyst with efficient oxygen reduction capability was explored to build a high-performance photocathodic immunoassay. The target model of carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9, Ag) was used for describing the sensing platform. Specifically, the nontoxic Au/CuBi2O4 photocathode was first prepared by decorating Au nanoparticles on CuBi2O4 nanofilm and was used as the matrix to anchor capture CA19-9 antibody (Ab1). Platinum (Pt) nanoparticles were loaded on graphene (GR) nanosheet to form Pt/GR nanocomposite, which was utilized as signal amplifier conjugating with signal CA19-9 antibody (Ab2). When specific sandwich immunoreaction happened, the Pt/GR played the role of an efficient nanocatalyst to accelerate the reduction reaction of electron acceptor of oxygen in the electrolyte, causing evidently enhanced cathodic photocurrent signal. By incorporating this superior signal amplification strategy into the anti-interference photocathodic immunoassay, highly sensitive and specific detection of target Ag was realized. This work pioneers a new perspective for the design of advanced photocathodic bioanalysis for various targets of interest.

Abstract
On the basis of synthesized PbS nanoparticles (PbS NPs)/reduced graphene oxide (RGO)/NiO nanosheet arrays (NiO NSAs) heterostructure, we constructed a function-switchable self-powered PEC sensing platform for the analysis of H2O2 and glucose. Ordered NiO NSAs have high electron mobility, modifying RGO onto the surfaces of NiO NSAs can connect the NiO NSAs with the PbS NPs and promoted the electron transfer rate between them, as well as enhance their photocurrent response. The PbS NPs/RGO/NiO NSAs heterostructure own excellent catalase-like activity can achieve H2O2 detection, only with one more step, after introducing glucose oxidase (GOD) onto the surface of PbS NPs/RGO/NiO NSAs heterostructure, we realized the detection conversion between H2O2 and glucose. Under optimal conditions, the proposed biosensor exhibited superior analytical performance toward H2O2 and glucose, a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.018 mM (S/N = 3) and 5.3 × 10-8 M (S/N = 3) were obtained, respectively. Moreover, good accuracy was obtained in the real samples analysis of H2O2 disinfectant and human serum samples.

Abstract
Herein, we developed an unmodified hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensing platform with a low background signal and high sensitivity based on CuS quantum dots (QDs)/Co3O4 polyhedra-driven multiple signal amplifications. The prepared porous h-BN nanosheets with large specific surface areas, as the photoelectric substrate material, can provide extensive active reaction sites. Meanwhile, the CuS QDs/Co3O4 polyhedra were synthesized by the zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-67) and utilized as a multiple signal amplifier, which can not only drive the p-n semiconductor quenching effect to compete with the h-BN photoelectrode for the consumption of electron donors and exciting light but also trigger a mimetic enzymatic catalytic precipitation effect to inhibit electron transfer. The quenching ability and peroxidase-like activity of CuS QDs/Co3O4 polyhedra were evaluated to prove its superiority, and the possible mechanisms of electron transfer and enzymatic catalytic were further analyzed in detail. The developed PEC biosensing platform for the chlorpyrifos assay presented outstanding performance with a wide linear range from 1 × 10-1 to 1 × 107 ng mL-1 and a low detection limit of 0.34 pg mL-1 and exhibited excellent selectivity, reproducibility, and stability. In addition, the CuS QDs/Co3O4 polyhedra-activated h-BN PEC biosensing platform may exhibit universality for various analytes via replacing the corresponding target aptamer sequence. This work provides a remarkable inspiration and valuable reference for the development of the PEC biosensor, and the signal amplifier-enabled unmodified PEC biosensing platform strategy has a bright application in early safety warning, bioanalysis and clinical diagnosis.

Signal-off photoelectrochemical determination of miRNA-21 using aptamer-modified In 2O 3@Cu 2MoS 4 nanocomposite. Mikrochim Acta 2020; 187:561.

Abstract
In2O3@Cu2MoS4 nanocomposite with superior photoelectrochemical (PEC) performance is used for the first time as a photoactivity material, and a signal-off PEC biosensing platform for miRNA detection has been successfully constructed. Firstly, the Cu2MoS4 nanosheets are synthesized by a hydrothermal method, and then, the homogeneous In2O3 nanoparticles (In2O3 NPs) are synthesized by calcination in the air. The In2O3@Cu2MoS4 nanocomposite is constructed with the Cu2MoS4 nanosheets as matrix and In2O3 NPs as sensitizer through a layer-by-layer assembly strategy. The nanocomposite with a tight interface and the matched band structure restrains the electron-hole pair recombination. Under visible light (400-700 nm), the nanocomposite exhibits a strong initial signal. With the catalyzed hairpin assembly, dozens of PbS quantum dots (QDs) are introduced on the surface of an electrode, significantly reducing the photocurrent of n-type In2O3@Cu2MoS4. Since PbS QDs can compete with the nanocomposite for light energy and electron donors, the signal decreased. Under optimal conditions, the biosensor manifests a broad linear range (1 fM-1 nM) and a low detection limit of about 0.57 fM, at a working potential of 0 V (vs. Ag/AgCl). The recovery of spiked human serum is between 94.0 and 102%, and the relative standard deviation (RSD) is between 1.3 and 2.7%. Therefore, the as-fabricated biosensor exhibits a potential for the determination of miRNA-21 in practical applications.Graphical abstract The In2O3@Cu2MoS4 nanocomposite owns a strong anode photocurrent signal, which can be used as a photoactive material to construct a "signal-off" biosensor for the detection of miRNA in non-enzymatically catalyzed hairpin assembly (CHA) reaction.

Abstract
Biosensor working in a self-powered mode has been widely concerned because it produces a signal when the bias potential is 0 V. However, the self-powered mode is used only when the materials have self-powered properties. Conversion of non-self-powered to self-powered through molecular regulation can solve this problem effectively. Here, we fabricated a self-powered photoelectrochemical mode based on co-regulation of electron acceptors methylene blue (MB) and p-nitrophenol (p-NP). AuNPs@ZnSe nanosheet-modified gold electrode (AuNPs@ZnSeNSs/GE) gave a small photocurrent at 0 V. In the presence of MB and p-NP, AuNPs@ZnSeNSs/GE gave the strongest photocurrent at 0 V. Accordingly, an electron acceptor co-regulated self-powered photoelectrochemical assay was fabricated. As proof-of-concept demonstrations, this assay was applied for prostate cancer circulating tumor nucleic acid biomarker, KLK2 and PCA3, detection combined with in situ recombinase polymerase amplification strategy. This assay generated a strong photocurrent and was sensitive to the variation of KLK2 and PCA3 concentration. The limits of detection were 30 and 32 aM, respectively. We anticipate this electron acceptor co-regulated self-powered photoelectrochemical mode to pave a new way for the development of self-powered sensing.

Abstract
A new strategy for enhancing the photoelectric activity of poly(5-formylindole) (P5FIn) was developed by introducing the inorganic semiconductor material (NiO) to form organic-inorganic heterojunctions. P5FIn/NiO heterojunctions were firstly prepared by combining hydrothermal synthesis and electrochemical polymerization. Due to the synergistic effect between P5FIn and NiO, the photoelectrochemical (PEC) performance of this heterojunction was significantly enhanced compared to pure P5FIn and NiO. The reason for the enhanced PEC performance is mainly attributed to the increased visible light utilization and the bandgap matching effect of the P5FIn/NiO heterojunctions. Based on the prepared P5FIn/NiO heterojunctions, a novel PEC sensor for aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) detection was also constructed with a wide linear range of 0.005-50 ng mL-1 and a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.0015 ng mL-1. Moreover, this constructed PEC sensor also had good stability, reproducibility, selectivity, and satisfactory actual sample detection ability. This strategy may inspire more design and application of high-performance photoelectric active material based on inorganic semiconductor and organic conducting polymer heterojunctions.

Abstract
A photoelectrochemical platform for thrombin determination was developed based on Au-rGO-CuS as multiple signal amplification elements. CuInS2 QDs was used to sensitize burr-shape TiO2 (b-TiO2) to obtain a strong photocurrent. Under the specific recognition between aptamer and thrombin, a sandwichlike structure was formed and the Au-rGO-CuS-labeled aptamer (S2@Au-rGO-CuS) was immobilized on the electrode surface. This induced a sharp decrease in photocurrent. The phenomenon is mainly due to the fact that CuS NPs can competitively consume the light energy and electron donor with CuInS2/b-TiO2. The rGO can increase the amount of CuS NPs and the Au NPs can accelerate charge transferring which depress the recombination of photogenerated electrons and holes in CuS to further enhance the competitive capacity of CuS. The sandwichlike structure has a steric hindrance effect. Therefore, the S2@Au-rGO-CuS has a multiple signal amplification function for thrombin determination. Under optimal conditions, the PEC aptasensor exhibited a wide linear concentration range from 0.1 pM to 10 nM with a low detection limit of 30 fM (S/N = 3) for thrombin. Besides, the designed aptasensor performed well in the assay of human serum sample, indicating good potential for the determination of thrombin in real samples. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
Research on biosensors is growing in relevance, taking benefit from groundbreaking knowledge that allows for new biosensing strategies. Electrochemical biosensors can benefit from research on semiconducting materials for energy applications. This research seeks the optimization of the semiconductor-electrode interfaces including light-harvesting materials, among other improvements. Once that knowledge is acquired, it can be implemented with biological recognition elements, which are able to transfer a chemical signal to the photoelectrochemical system, yielding photo-biosensors. This has been a matter of research as it allows both a superior suppression of background electrochemical signals and the switching ON and OFF upon illumination. Effective electrode-semiconductor interfaces and their coupling with biorecognition units are reviewed in this work.

Abstract
The detection of phospholipids oxidation is important for meat control and disease prevention. In this paper, a photoelectrochemical sensor based on printable mesoscopic chip (PMC) for fast and real-time monitoring phospholipids oxidation was designed and fabricated. TiO2, ZrO2 and carbon films of PMC were screen-printed onto the FTO glass layer by layer. The PMC and the feasibility for determination of phospholipids oxidation were investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM), UV-vis spectroscopy, cyclic voltammograms (CVs) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), etc. The short circuit current (Jsc) was used as a signal current, which would decrease if phospholipids in PMC were undergoing oxidation for the change of electrical properties. Compared with other methods, phospholipids in PMC did not require pretreatment, and the process was nondestructive and real-time. Meanwhile, this method showed high sensitivity and good selectivity. The fabricating process of PMC is simple, and the costs are low, relatively.

Abstract
A facile and sensitive self-powered cathodic photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptasensor is reported for the detection of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) based on CuO-Cu2O nanowire array grown on Cu mesh (CuO-Cu2O NWA/CM) as electrode. The mixed narrow band gaps of the CuO-Cu2O heterostructure ensured its wide absorption band, effective electron/hole separation, and high photocatalytic activity in the visible region. In addition, nanowires directly grown on the substrate provided high specific surface area and exposed abundant active sites, thus guaranteeing its high photocatalytic efficiency. Therefore, the self-powered sensor exhibited favorable analytical performance with fast response, wide linear ranges of 0.01 to 5 ng/mL and 5 to 100 ng/mL, an acceptable detection limit of 3 pg/mL, and reasonable selectivity and stability. The proposed CuO-Cu2O NWA/CM can be considered a promising visible light-responsive photoactive material for fabrication of PEC aptasensor with high performance.

Abstract
The combination of an electrocatalyst with a semiconductor light absorber is of great importance to increase the efficiency of photoelectrochemical (PEC) glucose detection. Here, in situ and synchronous fabrication of a Ni-based electrocatalyst (NiEC) and CdS semiconductor in laser-induced graphene (LIG) on indium-tin oxide glass is demonstrated via a one-step laser-induced solid phase transition. A series of component and structural characterization experiments suggest that the laser-induced NiEC uniformly disperses in the hybrid nanocomposite and exists mainly in the Ni0 and NiO states. Moreover, both electrochemical and PEC investigations confirm that the as-prepared hybrid photoelectrode exhibits excellent photoelectrocatalytic ability towards glucose, which is not only attributed to the strong synergistic interaction between CdS and NiEC, but also benefited from the high conductivity as well as 3D macroporous configuration of the simultaneously formed LIG, providing the key factor to achieve sensitive non-enzymatic PEC glucose sensors. Therefore, the laser-induced hybrid photoelectrode is then applied to the PEC detection of glucose, and a low detection limit of 0.4 μM is obtained with good stability, reproducibility, and selectivity. This study provides a promising paradigm for the facile and binder-free fabrication of an electrocatalyst-semiconductor-graphene hybrid photoelectrode, which will find potential applications in sensitive PEC biosensing for a broad range of analytes.
