[PMID: 39951988 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2025.127721] [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: 12/09/2024] [Revised: 01/11/2025] [Accepted: 02/10/2025] [Indexed: 02/17/2025]
Abstract
As widely used pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs), hydroquinone (HQ) and catechol (CC) pose a great threat to human beings and the environment due to their high toxicity and low biodegradability. Therefore, it is essential to detect them simultaneously and sensitively. In this study, a novel bifunctional ZIF-8/carbon black (CB) modified MXene (MXene/CB/ZIF-8/GCE) electrochemical sensor (ECS) based on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was constructed for simultaneous detection of HQ and CC by si-tu doping ZIF-8 on MXene/CB with a honeycomb sandwich structure. The unique morphology, structure and electrochemical properties of MXene/CB/ZIF-8 have been characterized by SEM, EDS, XRD, XPS, CV, EIS and DPV. CB was introduced into MXene with an unique accordion-like structure to prevent the buildup of MXene interlayers while enhancing its electrical conductivity, and ZIF-8 provided abundant adsorption active sites to facilitate charge and ion transport, and the three exerted a synergistic effect to form an excellent electrode material with ultra-large specific surface area and superior electrical conductivity. The results displayed that the constructed sensor exhibited outstanding sensing ability for the HQ and CC with a wide linear range (0.3-160.0 μM for HQ and 0.5-165.0 μM for CC) and low limits of detection (LODs) (0.0126 μM for HQ and 0.0082 μM for CC). Besides, the sensor had ideal anti-interference ability, reproducibility, and stability, and the simultaneous detection of HQ and CC in environmental water samples could be realized with satisfactory, which demonstrated great potential for monitoring ecological water samples in practice.

Abstract
Accurate measurement of tryptophan (Trp) levels is crucial for clinical and research purposes, such as nutritional assessment, disorder diagnosis, condition management, and the study of the role of Trp in disease pathophysiology. Herein, the intercalation of 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride [OMIM]+Cl- ionic liquids (ILs) between the layers of Ti3C2 MXenes results in a 3D porous structure with a large active surface area and high interlayer spacing (d-spacing). Confined [OMIM]+ ions enhance the electroactive sites and Trp transfer pathways at the Ti3C2 MXene and IL interfaces and improve the electron transfer efficiency for Trp oxidation, improving Ti3C2 MXene stability via strong π‒π and electrostatic Ti3C2 MXene‒IL interactions. Under optimal conditions, the sensor demonstrated a broad detection range for Trp, ranging from 0.001 to 240 µM, with a low limit of detection of 0.06 nM (S/N = 3). Owing to its exceptional stability, selectivity, and reproducibility, the proposed IL-Ti3C2/GCE exhibited significant potential for detecting Trp in real amino acid granules and urine samples.

Abstract
Intelligent wearable sensors based on MXenes hydrogels are rapidly advancing the frontier of personalized healthcare management. MXenes, a new class of transition metal carbon/nitride synthesized only a decade ago, have proved to be a promising candidate for soft sensors, advanced human-machine interfaces, and biomimicking systems due to their controllable and high electrical conductivity, as well as their unique mechanical properties as derived from their atomistically thin layered structure. In addition, MXenes' biocompatibility, hydrophilicity, and antifouling properties render them particularly suitable to synergize with hydrogels into a composite for mechanoelectrical functions. Nonetheless, while the use of MXene as a multifunctional surface or an electrical current collector such as an energy device electrode is prevalent, its incorporation into a gel system for the purpose of sensing is vastly less understood and formalized. This review provides a systematic exposition to the synthesis, property, and application of MXene hydrogels for intelligent wearable sensors. Specific challenges and opportunities on the synthesis of MXene hydrogels and their adoption in practical applications are explicitly analyzed and discussed to facilitate cross gemination across disciplines to advance the potential of MXene multifunctional sensing hydrogels.

Abstract
Recognition layer materials play a crucial role in the functionality of chemical sensors. Although advancements in two-dimensional (2D) materials have promoted sensor development, the controlled fabrication of large-scale recognition layers with highly active sites remains crucial for enhancing sensor sensitivity, especially for trace detection applications. Herein, we propose a strategy for the controlled preparation of centimeter-scale non-layered ultrathin β-In2S3 materials with tailored high-active sites to design ultrasensitive Hg2+ sensors. Our results reveal that the highly active sites of non-layered β-In2S3 materials are pivotal for achieving superior sensing performance. Selective detection of Hg2+ at the 1 aM level is achieved via selective Hg-S bonding. Additionally, we evaluate that this sensor exhibits excellent performance in detecting Hg2+ in the tap water matrix. This work provides a proof-of-concept for utilizing non-layered 2D films in high-performance sensors and highlights their potential for diverse analyte sensing applications.

Abstract
Two-dimensional transition metal carbides/nitrides (MXenes) have shown great promise in various applications. However, mass production of MXenes suffers from the excessive use of toxic fluorine-containing reagents. Herein, a new method was validated for synthesizing MXenes from five MAX ceramics. The method features a minimized (stoichiometric) dosage of F-containing reagent (NaBF4) and polyols (glycerol, erythritol, and xylitol) as the reaction solvent. Due to the sweetness of polyols and the low environmental impact, we refer to this method as a "sweet" synthesis of MXenes. An in-depth molecular dynamics simulation study, combined with experimental kinetic parameters, further revealed that the diffusion of F- in the confined interplanar space is rate-determining for the etching reaction. The expansion of interlayer spacing by polyols effectively reduces the diffusion activation energy of F- and accelerates the etching reaction.

Abstract
Tryptophan(Trp) is being explored as a potential biomarker for various diseases associated with decreased tryptophan levels; however, metabolomic methods are expensive and time-consuming and require extensive sample analysis, making them urgently needed for trace detection. To exploit the properties of Ti3C2 MXenes a rational porous methyl orange (MO)-delaminated Ti3C2 MXene was prepared via a facile mixing process for the electrocatalytic oxidation of Trp. The hollow-like 3D structure with a more open structure and the synergistic effect of MO and conductive Ti3C2 MXene enhanced its electrochemical catalytic capability toward Trp biosensing. More importantly, MO can stabilize Ti3C2 MXene nanosheets through noncovalent π-π interactions and hydrogen bonding. Compared with covalent attachment, these non-covalent interactions preserve the electronic conductivity of the Ti3C2 MXene nanosheets. Finally, the addition of MO-derived nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) atoms to Ti3C2 MXene enhanced the electronegativity and improved its affinity for specific molecules, resulting in high-performance electrocatalytic activity. The proposed biosensor exhibited a wide linear response in concentration ranges of 0.01-0.3 µM and 0.5-120 µM, with a low detection limit of 15 nM for tryptophan detection, and high anti-interference ability in complex media of human urine and egg white matrices. The exceptional abilities of the MO/Ti3C2 nanocatalyst make it a promising electrode material for the detection of important biomolecules.

Abstract
The unique attributes of hydrophilicity, expansive surface groups, remarkable flexibility, and superior conductivity converge in MXene, a pioneering 2D material. Owing to MXene's exceptional properties, diverse strategies have been explored to enhance its characteristics. Janus MXene and stress-strain response considerations represent the primary avenues of interest today. In this study, we investigated the Janus MXene structure under biaxial stress using first-principles calculations. The most stable configuration of Janus MoWC MXene identified in our analysis exhibits an atomic arrangement known as the hexagonal (2H) phase. Subsequently, we examined the mechanical and electronic properties of 2H-MoWC when subjected to biaxial strain. Our findings indicate that the 2H phase of Janus MoWC MXene demonstrates superior strength compared to the tetragonal (1T) phase. Analysis of the ELF of the 2H-MoWC structure unveiled that the robust C-C bond within the material is the underlying factor enabling the 2H phase to withstand a maximum of 9% tensile strain. Furthermore, we demonstrate that 2H-MoWC is a superconductor with the superconducting temperature (Tc) of 1.6 K, and the superconductivity of 2H phase can be enhanced by biaxial strain with the Tc reaching 7 K. This study offers comprehensive insights into the properties of Janus MoWC monolayer under biaxial stress, positioning it as a promising candidate for 2D straintronic applications.

Abstract
In the last few decades, tear-based biosensors for continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) have provided new avenues for the diagnosis of diabetes. The tear CGMs constructed from nanomaterials have been extensively demonstrated by various research activities in this field and are gradually witnessing their most prosperous period. A timely and comprehensive review of the development of tear CGMs in a compartmentalized manner from a nanomaterials perspective would greatly broaden this area of research. However, to our knowledge, there is a lack of specialized reviews and comprehensive cohesive reports in this area. First, this paper describes the principles and development of electrochemical glucose sensors. Then, a comprehensive summary of various advanced nanomaterials recently reported for potential applications and construction strategies in tear CGMs is presented in a compartmentalized manner, focusing on sensing properties. Finally, the challenges, strategies, and perspectives used to design tear CGM materials are emphasized, providing valuable insights and guidance for the construction of tear CGMs from nanomaterials in the future.

[PMID: 39087177 PMCID: PMC11290377 DOI: 10.7759/cureus.63582] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2024] [Accepted: 07/01/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The fabrication of titanium carbide (Ti3C2)-cobalt sulfide (Co3S4)-based biosensors with high sensitivity and selectivity can change the biosensor manufacturing industry completely. Molecular and clinical diagnostics, disease progression monitoring, and drug discovery could utilize these sensors for early biomarker detection. MXene (Ti3C2) is a two-dimensional material with exceptional electrical conductivity, hydrophilicity, great thermal stability, large interlayer spacing, and a high surface area. Ti3C2's remarkable characteristics make it well-suited for biomolecule immobilization and target analyte detection. Co3S4 is a transition metal chalcogenide that has shown great potential in biosensors. Co3S4 nanoparticles (NPs) can potentially enhance Ti3C2 electrocatalytic activity, particularly in amino acid detection. L-arginine is a semi-essential amino acid, and the body frequently uses it to support healthy circulation and plays a crucial role in protein synthesis. We fabricated the Ti3C2-Co3S4 biosensor for L-arginine detection. Aim This study aims to synthesize and apply Ti3C2-Co3S4 nanocomposites in amino acid biosensing. Materials and methods The Ti3C2 nanosheets were synthesized by the selective removal of an aluminum (Al) layer from the precursor (Ti3AlC2) using hydrofluoric acid (HF). The resulting mixture serves as an etchant, especially targeting the Al layers on Ti3AlC2 while protecting the desired MXene layers at room temperature. Cobalt nitrate hexahydrate was dissolved in deionized water. Sodium hydroxide was added to the cobalt solution and stirred. Thioacetamide was added to the above solution and stirred (Solution B). A mixture of Solution A and Solution B was stirred for 30 minutes. The mixture is transferred to a hydrothermal reactor and maintained at a temperature of 180°C for 12 hours. Once the reaction completes, we cool the resultant mixture to room temperature and then filter it using the washing technique. The sample underwent a 12-hour drying process at 80°C. Results This study investigated the use of a biosensor that employed Ti3C2-Co3S4 NPs to detect the concentration of L-arginine. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) shows clear and distinct peaks, which means that the synthesized Ti3C2-Co3S4 nanostructures have a crystalline structure. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis revealed that the sheetlike structure of synthesized Ti3C2-Co3S4 nanostructures revealed the crystalline morphology. The results of this study show that the Ti3C2-Co3S4 NP-based biosensor can be used to detect L-arginine in a sensitive and selective way. Conclusion This study investigated the synthesis of Ti3C2-Co3S4 NPs and their ability to detect L-arginine levels and show a distinct correlation between the L-arginine concentration and the fluorescence intensity, demonstrating the biosensor's effectiveness in detecting L-arginine levels.

Biosens Bioelectron 2024; 250:116078. [PMID: 38295578 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2024.116078] [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: 10/03/2023] [Revised: 01/21/2024] [Accepted: 01/25/2024] [Indexed: 02/02/2024]
Abstract
Delamination of the exfoliated multilayer MXenes with electro-catalysts, not only leads to increasing surface area for high electrochemiluminescent (ECL) signal tracer loading but also provides highly sensitive achievements in a coreaction accelerator manner. To this end, herein, we used bromophenol blue (BPB)-delaminated multilayer Ti3C2 MXene as both a coreaction accelerator to promote the electrochemiluminescent (ECL) reaction rate of luminol (LUM) and the co-reactant H2O2 and a substrate for retaining high loading of glucose oxidase (GOx)-conjugated polyethylene imine (PEI) along with luminophore species into more open structure of Ti3C2 MXene for sensitive detection of glucose. In the presence of glucose, in situ generating H2O2 product through a GOx-catalyzed process could produce abundant •OH radicals via the peroxidase-like activity of the BPB@Ti3C2 in the LUM ECL reaction. Moreover, decreasing the distance between the high-content LUM into the BPB@Ti3C2 and the generated •OH, minimizes the decomposition of highly active •OH, providing a superb ECL signal. Last, the proximity of incorporated GOx into the delaminated Ti3C2 MXene near the electrode allows efficient electron transfer between the electrode and enzyme. The integration of such amplifying effects endowed high sensitivity and excellent selectivity for glucose with a low limit of detection of 0.02 μM in the wide range of 0.01 μM-40,000 μM, enabling the feasibility of the glucose analysis in human serum samples. Overall, the enhanced ECL based on the BPB@Ti3C2 opens a new horizon to develop highly sensitive MXene-based ECL toward the field of biosensors.

Abstract
This study presents the design and implementation of an antimicrobial peptide-based electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) based biosensor system. The biosensor consists of a gold coated carbon electrode with MXene and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) for the label-free detection of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) envelope protein gp120. Scanning electron microscopy was used to confirm the presence and distribution of MXene and AgNPs on the biosensor surface. The employment of the antimicrobial peptide on the electrode surface minimized the denaturation of the biorecognition receptor to ensure reliable and stable performance. The biosensor exhibited a linear range of 10-4000 pg mL-1 for gp120 detection, demonstrating good repeatability in real samples. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were also calculated as 0.05 pg mL-1 and 0.14 pg mL-1, respectively. This biosensing platform has promising applications in the detection of HIV in clinical and point-of-care settings.

Abstract
Transition metal carbides and nitrides (MXenes) are crystal nanomaterials with a number of surface functional groups such as fluorine, hydroxyl, and oxygen, which can be used as carriers for proteins and drugs. MXenes have excellent biocompatibility, electrical conductivity, surface hydrophilicity, mechanical properties and easy surface modification. However, at present, the stability of most MXenes needs to be improved, and more synthesis methods need to be explored. MXenes are good substrates for nerve cell regeneration and nerve reconstruction, which have broad application prospects in the repair of nervous system injury. Regarding the application of MXenes in neuroscience, mainly at the cellular level, the long-term in vivo biosafety and effects also need to be further explored. This review focuses on the progress of using MXenes in nerve regeneration over the last few years; discussing preparation of MXenes and their biocompatibility with different cells as well as the regulation by MXenes of nerve cell regeneration in two-dimensional and three-dimensional environments in vitro. MXenes have great potential in regulating the proliferation, differentiation, and maturation of nerve cells and in promoting regeneration and recovery after nerve injury. In addition, this review also presents the main challenges during optimization processes, such as the preparation of stable MXenes and long-term in vivo biosafety, and further discusses future directions in neural tissue engineering.

Abstract
Recently, two-dimensional (2D) MXenes materials have received enormous attention because of their excellent physiochemical properties such as high carrier mobility, metallic electrical conductivity, mechanical properties, transparency, and tunable work function. MXenes play a significant role as additives, charge transfer layers, and conductive electrodes for optoelectronic applications. Particularly, titanium carbide (Ti3C2Tx) MXene demonstrates excellent optoelectronic features, tunable work function, good electron affinity, and high conductivity. The Ti3C2Tx has been widely used as electron transport (ETL) or hole transport layers (HTL) in the development of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Additionally, Ti3C2Tx has excellent electrochemical properties and has been widely explored as sensing material for the development of electrochemical biosensors. In this review article, we have summarized the recent advances in the development of the PSCs using Ti3C2Tx MXene as ETL and HTL. We have also compiled the recent progress in the fabrication of biosensors using Ti3C2Tx-based electrode materials. We believed that the present mini review article would be useful to provide a deep understanding, and comprehensive insight into the research status.

Abstract
Recent years have seen a lot of interest in transition metal carbides/carbonitrides (MXenes), Which is one of newly proliferating two-dimensional (2D) materials.The advantages and applications of synthesizing MXenes-based biosensing systems are interesting. There is an urgent requirement for synthesis of MXenes. Through foliation, physical adsorption, and interface modification,it has been proposed that many biological disorders are related to genetic mutation. Majority of mutations were discovered to be nucleotide mismatches. Consequently, accurate -nucleotide mismatched discrimination is crucial for both diagnosing and treating diseases. To differentiate between such a sensitivealterations in the DNA duplex, several detection methods, particularly Electrochemical-luminescence (ECL) ones, have really been investigated.Mn+1XnTx is common name for MXenes, a novel family of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides, where T stands for interface termination units (i.e. = O, OH, and/or F). These electronic characteristics of MXenes may be changed between conductive to semiconducting due to abundant organometallic chemistry.Solid-state ECL sensors predicated on MXene would provide the facile nucleotide detection and convenience for usage with minimal training, mobility and possibly minimal cost.This study emphasizes upcoming requirements and possibilities in this area while describing the accomplishments achieved in the usage and employing of MXenes in the research and development of facile biomarkerdetection and their significance in designing electrochemical sensors. Opportunities are addressed for creating 2D MXene materials sensors and devices with incorporated biomolecule sensing. MXenes Carry out this process sensors, address the advantages of using MXenes and their variants as detecting materials for gathering different types of data, and attempt to clarify the design principles and operation of related MXene-based sensors, such as nucleotide detection, Single nucleotide detectors, Cancer theranostics, Biosensing capabilities, Gliotoxin detection, SARS-COV-2 nucleocapsid detection, electrochemical sensors, visual sensors, and humidity sensors. Finally, we examine the major issues and prospects for MXene-based materials used in various sensing applications.

Sensitive determination of prostate-specific antigen with graphene quantum dot-based fluorescence aptasensor using few-layer V 2CT x MXene as quencher. SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2023; 293:122474. [PMID: 36812754 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2023.122474] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2022] [Revised: 01/15/2023] [Accepted: 02/06/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
A novel fluorescence aptasensor of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) was established using few-layer vanadium carbide (FL-V2CTx) nanosheet as a quencher. First, FL-V2CTx was prepared by the delamination of multi-layer V2CTx (ML-V2CTx) with tetramethylammonium hydroxide. The aptamer-carboxyl graphene quantum dots (CGQDs) probe was prepared by combining the aminated PSA aptamer and CGQDs. Then, the aptamer-CGQDs were absorbed onto the surface of FL-V2CTx by hydrogen bond interaction, which led to the decrease in fluorescence of aptamer-CGQDs due to photoinduced energy transfer. After addition of PSA, PSA-aptamer-CGQDs complex was released from FL-V2CTx. The fluorescence intensity of aptamer-CGQDs-FL-V2CTx with PSA was higher than that without PSA. The FL-V2CTx-based fluorescence aptasensor provided a PSA detection linear range from 0.1 to 20 ng mL-1 with detection limit of 0.03 ng mL-1. The ΔF value of fluorescence intensities for aptamer-CGQDs-FL-V2CTx with and without PSA was 5.6, 3.7, 7.7, and 5.4 times of ML-V2CTx, few-layer titanium carbide (FL-Ti3C2Tx), ML-Ti3C2Tx and graphene oxide aptasensors, respectively, indicating the advantage of FL-V2CTx. The aptasensor had high selectivity for PSA detection compared with some proteins and tumor markers. This proposed method had convenience and high sensitivity for PSA determination. The determination results of PSA in human serum samples using the aptasensor were consistent with those by chemiluminescent immunoanalysis. The fluorescence aptasensor can be successfully applied for PSA determination in serum samples of prostate cancer patients.

Abstract
2D carbides and nitrides of transition metals (MXenes) have shown great promise in a variety of energy storage and energy conversion applications. The extraordinary properties of MXenes are because of their excellent conductivity, large carrier concentration, vast specific surface area, superior hydrophilicity, high volumetric capacitance, and rich surface chemistry. However, it is still desired to synthesize MXenes with specific functional groups that deliver the required characteristics. This is due to the fact that a considerable amount of metal atoms is exposed on the surface of MXenes during their synthesis through an etching procedure; hence, other anions and cations are uncontrollably implanted on their surfaces. Because of this situation, the first invented Ti3C2Tx MXene suffers from low photoresponsivity and detectivity, large overpotential, and small sensitivity in photoelectrochemical (PEC) photodetectors, hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), and sensing applications. Therefore, surface modification of the MXene structure is required to develop the device's performance. On the other hand, there is still a lack of understanding of the MXene mechanism in such cutting-edge applications. Thus, the manipulations of MXenes are highly dependent on understanding the device mechanism, suitable modification elements, and modification methods. This study for the first time reveals the conjugation effect of pre-selected S, Se, and Te chalcogen elements on a few-layered Ti3C2Tx MXene to synthesize new composites for PEC photodetector, HER, and vapor sensor applications. Also, the mechanism of the chalcogen decorated few-layered Ti3C2Tx MXene composites for each application is discussed. The selection of a few-layered Ti3C2Tx MXene is due to its fascinating characteristics which make it capable to be considered as an appropriate substrate and incorporating chalcogen atoms. The Te-decorated few-layered Ti3C2Tx MXene composite provides better performances in PEC photodetector and vapor sensing applications. Although the potential value of the Se-decorated few-layered Ti3C2Tx composite is slightly lower than that of the Te-decorated sample in HER application, its overpotential is still greater than that of the Te-decorated sample. The acquired results show that the S-decorated few-layered Ti3C2Tx composite demonstrates the lowest performance in all three examined applications in comparison with the other two samples.

Abstract
MXene emerged as decent 2D material and has been exploited for numerous applications in the last decade. The remunerations of the ideal metallic conductivity, optical absorbance, mechanical stability, higher heterogeneous electron transfer rate, and good redox capability have made MXene a potential candidate for biosensing applications. The hydrophilic nature, biocompatibility, antifouling, and anti-toxicity properties have opened avenues for MXene to perform in vitro and in vivo analysis. In this review, the concept, operating principle, detailed mechanism, and characteristic properties are comprehensively assessed and compiled along with breakthroughs in MXene fabrication and conjugation strategies for the development of unique electrochemical and optical biosensors. Further, the current challenges are summarized and suggested future aspects. This review article is believed to shed some light on the development of MXene for biosensing and will open new opportunities for the future advanced translational application of MXene bioassays.

Abstract
Hybrid electric storage systems that combine capacitive and faradaic materials need to be well designed to benefit from the advantages of batteries and supercapacitors. The ultimate capacitive material is graphite (GR), yet high capacitance is usually not achieved due to restacking of its sheets. Therefore, an appealing approach to achieve high power and energy systems is to embed a faradaic 2D material in between the graphite sheets. Here, a simple one-step approach was developed, whereby a faradaic material [layered double hydroxide (LDH)] was electrochemically formed inside electrochemically exfoliated graphite. Specifically, GR was exfoliated under negative potentials by CoII and, in the presence of MnII , formed GR-CoMn-LDH, which exhibited a high areal capacitance and energy density. The high areal capacitance was attributed to the exfoliation of the graphite at very negative potentials to form a 3D foam-like structure driven by hydrogen evolution as well as the deposition of CoMn-LDH due to hydroxide ion generation inside the GR sheets. The ratio between the CoII and MnII in the CoMn-LDH was optimized and analyzed, and the electrochemical performance was studied. Analysis of a cross-section of the GR-CoMn-LDH confirmed the deposition of LDH inside the GR layers. The areal capacitance of the electrode was 186 mF cm-2 at a scan rate of 2 mV s-1 . Finally, an asymmetric supercapacitor was assembled with GR-CoMn-LDH and exfoliated graphite as the positive and negative electrodes, respectively, yielding an energy density of 96.1 μWh cm-3 and a power density of 5 mW cm-3 .

Abstract
Mixed-matrix membranes (MMMs) possess the unique properties and inherent characteristics of their component polymer and inorganic fillers, or other possible types of additives. However, the successful fabrication of compact and defect-free MMMs with a homogeneous filler distribution poses a major challenge, due to poor filler/polymer compatibility. In this study, we use two-dimensional multi-layered Ti3C2Tx MXene nanofillers to improve the compatibility and CO2/CH4 separation performance of cellulose triacetate (CTA)-based MMMs. CTA-based MMMs with TiO2-based 1D (nanotubes) and 0D (nanofillers) additives were also fabricated and tested for comparison. The high thermal stability, compact homogeneous structure, and stable long-term CO2/CH4 separation performance of the CTA-2D samples suggest the potential application of the membrane in bio/natural gas separation. The best results were obtained for the CTA-2D sample with a loading of 3 wt.%, which exhibited a 5-fold increase in CO2 permeability and 2-fold increase in CO2/CH4 selectivity, compared with the pristine CTA membrane, approaching the state-of-the-art Robeson 2008 upper bound. The dimensional (shape) effect on separation performance was determined as 2D > 1D > 0D. The use of lamellar stacked MXene with abundant surface-terminating groups not only prevents the aggregation of particles but also enhances the CO2 adsorption properties and provides additional transport channels, resulting in improved CO2 permeability and CO2/CH4 selectivity.

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

Abstract
MXenes are a family of novel two-dimensional (2D) materials attracting intensive interest because of the rich chemistry rooted from the highly diversified surface functional groups. This enables the chemical optimization suitable for versatile applications, including energy conversion and storage, sensors, and catalysis. This work reports the ab initio study of the crystal energetics, electronic properties, and mechanical properties, and the impacts of strain on the electronic properties of tetragonal (1T) and hexagonal (2H) phases of Mo2C as well as the surface-terminated Mo2CT2 (T = O, F, and Cl). Our findings indicate that 2H-Mo2C is energetically more stabilized than the 1T counterpart, and the 1T-to-2H transition requires a substantial energy of 210 meV per atom. The presence of surface termination T atoms on Mo2C intrinsically induces variations in the atomic structure. The calculated structures were selected based on the energetic and thermodynamic stabilities (400 K). The O atom prefers to be terminated on 2H-Mo2C, whereas the Cl atom energetically stabilizes on 1T-Mo2C. Meanwhile, with certain configurations, 2H-Mo2CF2 and 1T-Mo2CF2 with slightly different energies could exist simultaneously. The Mo2CO2 possesses the highest mechanical strength and elastic modulus (σmax = 52 GPa at εb = 20% and E = 507 GPa). The nature of the ordered centrosymmetric layer and the strong bonding between 4 d-Mo and 2 p-O of 2H-Mo2CO2 are responsible for its promising mechanical properties. Interestingly, the topological properties of 2H-Mo2CO2 at a wide range of strains (-10% to 12%) are reported. Moreover, 2H-Mo2CF2 is metallic through the range of calculation. Meanwhile, originally semiconducting 1T-Mo2CF2 and 1T-Mo2CCl2 preserve their features under the ranges of the strain of -2% to 10% and -1% to 5%, respectively, beyond which they undergo the semiconductor-to-metal transitions. These findings would guide the potential applications in modern 2D straintronic devices.

Abstract
Conductive hydrogels based on MXene have gained more attention due to the excellent conductive property and biocompatibility. At present, they have great potential in electronic skins, personally healthcare monitoring and human motion sensing. However, MXene are prone to be oxidized due to the abundant hydroxyls, which results in the unstable conductive property of hydrogel. To improve the shortcoming, conductive PAA/PAM/MXene/TA hydrogel was prepared, in which the introduction of TA can prevent MXene from oxidation owing to the great deal of pyrogallol groups. Mechanical tests showed that the tensile strength, toughness and elongation at break of PAA/PAM/MXene/TA hydrogel are 0.251 ± 0.05 MPa, 0.895 ± 0.16 MJ/m3 and 560.82 ± 19.56%, respectively, indicating the hydrogel possess good stretchability. In addition, the MXene and TA were introduced into hydrogel through hydrogen bonds, which endow the hydrogel with good restorability and self-healing property. Resistance variation-strain curves demonstrated that the introduction of MXene endue the hydrogel with appreciable sensing performances. Moreover, in vitro cytotoxicity assay indicated that the hydrogel has good biocompatibility. In conclusion, PAA/PAM/MXene/TA hydrogel has great potential in flexible wearable sensor field.

Abstract
Bioelectronic devices have received the massive attention because of their huge potential to develop the core electronic components for biocomputing system. Up to now, numerous bioelectronic devices have been reported such as biomemory and biologic gate by employment of biomolecules including metalloproteins and nucleic acids. However, the intrinsic limitations of biomolecules such as instability and low signal production hinder the development of novel bioelectronic devices capable of performing various novel computing functions. As a way to overcome these limitations, nanomaterials have the great potential and wide applicability to grant and extend the electronic functions, and improve the inherent properties from biomolecules. Accordingly, lots of nanomaterials including the conductive metal, graphene, and transition metal dichalcogenide nanomaterials are being used to develop the remarkable functional bioelectronic devices like the multi-bit biomemory and resistive random-access biomemory. This review discusses the nanomaterial-based superb bioelectronic devices including the biomemory, biologic gates, and bioprocessors. In conclusion, this review will provide the interdisciplinary information about utilization of various novel nanomaterials applicable for biocomputing system.

Abstract
The emergence of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides, carbonitrides and nitrides, referred to MXenes, with a general chemical formula of Mn+1XnTx have aroused considerable interest and shown remarkable potential applications in diverse fields. The unique ultrathin lamellar structure accompanied with charming electronic, optical, magnetic, mechanical and biological properties make MXenes as a kind of promising alternative biomaterials for versatile biomedical applications, as well as uncovering many new fundamental scientific discoveries. Herein, the current state-of-the-art advances of MXenes-related biomaterials are systematically summarized in this comprehensive review, especially focusing on the synthetic methodologies, design and surface engineering strategies, unique properties, biological effects, and particularly the property-activity-effect relationship of MXenes at the nano-bio interface. Furthermore, the elaborated MXenes for varied biomedical applications, such as biosensors and biodevices, antibacteria, bioimaging, therapeutics, theranostics, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, are illustrated in detail. Finally, we discuss the current challenges and opportunities for future advancement of MXene-based biomaterials in-depth on the basis of the present situation, aiming to facilitate their early realization of practical biomedical applications.
