Abstract
Mycotoxins, harmful compounds produced by fungal pathogens, pose a severe threat to food safety and consumer health. Some commonly produced mycotoxins such as aflatoxins, ochratoxin A, fumonisins, trichothecenes, zearalenone, and patulin have serious health implications in humans and animals. Mycotoxin contamination is particularly concerning in regions heavily reliant on staple foods like grains, cereals, and nuts. Preventing mycotoxin contamination is crucial for a sustainable food supply. Chromatographic methods like thin layer chromatography (TLC), gas chromatography (GC), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and liquid chromatography coupled with a mass spectrometer (LC/MS), are commonly used to detect mycotoxins; however, there is a need for on-site, rapid, and cost-effective detection methods. Currently, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), lateral flow assays (LFAs), and biosensors are becoming popular analytical tools for rapid detection. Meanwhile, preventing mycotoxin contamination is crucial for food safety and a sustainable food supply. Physical, chemical, and biological approaches have been used to inhibit fungal growth and mycotoxin production. However, new strains resistant to conventional methods have led to the exploration of novel strategies like cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) technology, polyphenols and flavonoids, magnetic materials and nanoparticles, and natural essential oils (NEOs). This paper reviews recent scientific research on mycotoxin toxicity, explores advancements in detecting mycotoxins in various foods, and evaluates the effectiveness of innovative mitigation strategies for controlling and detoxifying mycotoxins.

In Vitro Antimalarial Activity of Trichothecenes against Liver and Blood Stages of Plasmodium Species. JOURNAL OF NATURAL PRODUCTS 2024; 87:315-321. [PMID: 38262446 PMCID: PMC10897926 DOI: 10.1021/acs.jnatprod.3c01019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2023] [Revised: 12/19/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/25/2024]
Abstract
Trichothecenes (TCNs) are a large group of tricyclic sesquiterpenoid mycotoxins that have intriguing structural features and remarkable biological activities. Herein, we focused on three TCNs (anguidine, verrucarin A, and verrucarol) and their ability to target both the blood and liver stages of Plasmodium species, the parasite responsible for malaria. Anguidine and verrucarin A were found to be highly effective against the blood and liver stages of malaria, while verrucarol had no effect at the highest concentration tested. However, these compounds were also found to be cytotoxic and, thus, not selective, making them unsuitable for drug development. Nonetheless, they could be useful as chemical probes for protein synthesis inhibitors due to their direct impact on parasite synthesis processes.

Magnetic three-phase single-drop microextraction for highly sensitive detection of aflatoxin B 1 in agricultural product samples based on peroxidase-like spatial network structure. Food Chem 2023; 416:135856.

Abstract
In this work, a highly sensitive method for aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) detection was developed based on a peroxidase-like spatial network structure. The specific antibody and antigen of AFB1 were coated on a histidine-modified Fe3O4 nanozyme to form the capture/detection probes. Based on the competition/affinity effect, the spatial network structure was constructed by the probes, which could be rapidly (8 s) separated by a magnetic three-phase single-drop microextraction process. In this single-drop microreactor, the network structure was applied to catalyze a colorimetric 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine oxidation reaction for AFB1 detection. The signal was amplified significantly due to the strong peroxidase-like ability of the spatial network structure and the enrichment effect of the microextraction. Thus, a low detection limit (0.034 pg/mL) was achieved. The matrix effect of real sample can be eliminated by the extraction approach, and the practicability of this method was proved by agricultural product samples analysis.

Abstract
Point-of-care testing (POCT), with its portability and high sensitivity, is an analytical device for rapid on-site sensing and detection. In this study, a POCT device was designed for the portable detection of illegal additives by integrating a coil device that can visually sense color distance and a two-electrode electrochemical system. Real-time monitoring of pressure changes was achieved by driving CeO2@Pt/Au nanoparticle (NP)-labeled antibodies into a competitive immunoreaction, in which CeO2 and Pt/Au synergistically catalyzed the production of large amounts of O2 from H2O2, leading to a significant increase in gas within the closed chamber. Attractively, the coil device converted the pressure stimulus into visually readable change in distance for semi-quantitative detection of the target substance, while the electrical signal output caused by the changes of the solution around the electrodes achieved accurate and reliable quantification of the target. In addition, the proposed dual-mode pressure immunoassay device has acceptable selectivity, stability, and reproducibility. Herein, this portable device, which enables target concentration readings by converting pressure into multiple signals, provides an effective way to visualize POCT assays in resource-limited areas.

Abstract
Aims: We prepared Photinia glabra (PG) aqueous fruit extract, utilized it to synthesize silver nanoparticles (PG-Ag NPs) and evaluated the antibacterial and anticancer activities of the nanoparticles (NPs). Materials & methods: Silver nitrate aqueous solution was reduced to PG-Ag NPs using aqueous PG fruit extract. NP shape, size, composition and functionalization were determined using transmission electron microscopy, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared and x-ray diffraction. Results & conclusions: PG-Ag NPs were spherical, approximately 39-77 nm-sized, functionalized surfaces with notable antibacterial activity against both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, with an MIC <30 ug/ml and cytotoxicity toward esophageal cancer cells, with IC50 values less than 20 ug/ml. PG-Ag@rt NPs have been shown to be a potent antibacterial and anticancer agent, and their enriched particle surfaces can be conjugated with other compounds for multibiomedical applications.

Abstract
The presence of trace elements such as lithium (Li) in water resources in the long term can endanger consumers' health. Several studies have been conducted on Li concentration in water sources; hence, this study attempted to retrieve studies using a systematic search. The search was conducted in Web of Sciences, Embase, PubMed, and Scopus databases from 1 January 2010 to 15 January 2023. Li concentration was meta-analyzed based on the type of water resources and countries subgroups in the random effects model (REM) statistical analysis. In addition, health risk assessment in different age groups was calculated using the target hazard quotient (THQ). This study included 76 papers with 157 data reports in our meta-analysis. The overall pooled concentration of Li was 5.374 (95 % CI: 5.261-5.487 μg/L). The pooled concentration of Li in groundwater (40.407 μg/L) was 14.53 times surface water (2.785 μg/L). The highest water Li content was attributed to Mexico (2,209.05 μg/L), Bolivia (1,444.05 μg/L), Iraq (1,350 μg/L), and Argentina (516.39 μg/L). At the same time, the lowest water Li content was associated with Morocco (1.20 μg/L), Spain (0.46 μg/L), and India (0.13 μg/L). THQ due to Li in water resources in consumers of Iraq, Mexico, South Africa, Afghanistan, Bolivia, Portugal, Malawi, South Korea, Nepal, South Korea, Argentina, and the USA was higher than 1 value. Therefore, continuous monitoring of Li concentration in water sources and reducing Li concentration, especially in groundwater water, using new water treatment processes in these countries are recommended.

Abstract
Heavy metal concentrations exceeding permissible limits threaten human life, plant life, and all other life forms. Different natural and anthropogenic activities emit toxic heavy metals in the soil, air, and water. Plants consume toxic heavy metals from their roots and foliar part inside the plant. Heavy metals may interfere with various aspects of the plants, such as biochemistry, bio-molecules, and physiological processes, which usually translate into morphological and anatomical changes. They use various strategies to deal with the toxic effects of heavy metal contamination. Some of these strategies include restricting heavy metals to the cell wall, vascular sequestration, and synthesis of various biochemical compounds, such as phyto-chelators and organic acids, to bind the free moving heavy metal ions so that the toxic effects are minimized. This review focuses on several aspects of genetics, molecular, and cell signaling levels, which integrate to produce a coordinated response to heavy metal toxicity and interpret the exact strategies behind the tolerance of heavy metals stress. It is suggested that various aspects of some model plant species must be thoroughly studied to comprehend the approaches of heavy metal tolerance to put that knowledge into practical use.

Abstract
Advanced biosensors, considered as emerging technologies, are capable of accurate, quantitative and real-time analysis for point-of-care testing (POCT) applications. Moreover, the integrating of miniaturized meters into these advanced biosensors makes them ideally appropriate for portable, sensitive and selective detection of biomolecules. Miniaturized meters including PGMs (personal glucose meters), thermometer, pressuremeter, pH meter, etc. are the most accurate devices and wide availability in the market, exhibiting a promising potential towards detection of small molecule mycotoxins. In this article, we introduce and analyze the recent advancements for sensing of mycotoxins measured by handheld meters since the first report in 2012. Furthermore, limitations and challenges for versatile meters application against mycotoxins in food matrix are highlighted. By overcoming the bottleneck problems, we believe the miniaturized meters-based biosensor platform will provide great possibilities for mycotoxins analysis and launch them to the market.

Abstract
The butadiyne-linked six-metalloporphyrin nanoring (Mg6-P6) and it's complex with a hexapyridyl template, Mg6-P6·T6 have a great potential for employment in future nanoelectronic applications such as a nanosensor for small gas molecules. The goal of this study is to scrutinize and improvement of the CO, N2, and O2 gas sensing capacity of Mg6-P6 and Mg6-P6·T6 using DFT calculations at CAM-B3LYP/6-31G (d,p) level of theory. The geometrical structures, binding energies, band gaps, the density of states (DOS), adsorption energies, HOMO and LUMO energies, Fermi level energies (EFL), NBO, FMO and TD-DFT spectrum were calculated to predict gas adsorption properties of Mg6-P6 and Mg6-P6·T6 systems. Based on the calculated adsorption energies and remarkable decrease in the Eg, it is expected that the Mg6-P6 and Mg6-P6·T6 are sensitive to O2 molecule. Surprisingly, the Mg6-P6-O2 and specially the Mg6-P6.T6-O2 record promising values of recovery times for different attempt frequencies. Therefore, the results open a way for the development of a new and selective O2 nanosensor in the presence of CO and N2 gas molecules.

Abstract
A new chitosan 2,4-dihydroxyacetophenone Schiff base @SrFe12O19 (Cs-SB@SrFe12O19) nanocomposite was successfully prepared by one-pot reaction and fully characterized for its functional groups, morphology, elemental analysis and thermal behavior by FT-IR, XRD, VSM, DSC, TGA, zeta potential, FE-SEM and EDS techniques. The VSM result showed that Cs-SB@SrFe12O19 has Ms of 11.81 emu/g and Hc of 5488 Oe, known as hard magnetic material. Finally, the as-prepared sample utilized as a new sorbent for the removal of Pb(II) ions from aqueous solution by using batch adsorption experiments. The adsorption of Pb(II) was carried out at different pH, contact time and initial dose of Cs-SB@SrFe12O19. The maximum adsorption capacity was found to be 132 mg/g (99 %) at pH 5 and the contact time of 120 min. Finally, the kinetic studies reveals that the adsorption process of Cs-SB@SrFe12O19 followed by the pseudo second order kinetics model. Also, the sample showed excellent recyclable efficiency up to 5 cycles.

Abstract
In recent years, dual-modal immunosensors based on synthetic nanomaterials have provided accurate and sensitive detection. However, preparation of nanomaterial probes can be time-consuming, laborious, and not limited to producing inactive and low-affinity antibodies. These challenges can be addressed through the multifunction nanobody without conjugation. In this study, a nanobody-enhanced green fluorescent (Nb26-EGFP) was novel produced with a satisfactory affinity and fluorescent properties. Then, a dual-modal fluorescent/colorimetric immunosensor was constructed using the Nb26-EGFP-gold nanoflowers (AuNFs) composite as a probe, to detect the aflatoxin B1 (AFB1). In the maize matrix, the proposed immunosensor showed high sensitivity with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.0024 ng/mL and a visual LOD of 1 ng/mL, which is 20-fold and 325-fold compared with the Nb26-EGFP-based single-modal immunosensor and original nanobody Nb26-based immunoassay. The performance of the dual-modal assay was validated by a high-performance liquid chromatography method. The recoveries were between 83.19 and 108.85%, with the coefficients of variation below 9.43%, indicating satisfied accuracy and repeatability. Overall, the novel Nb26-EGFP could be used as the detection probe, and the dual-modal immunosensor could be used as a practical detection method for AFB1 in real samples.

Abstract
Bacterial infections remain the leading cause of death worldwide today. The emergence of antibiotic resistance has urged the development of alternative antibacterial technologies to complement or replace traditional antibiotic treatments. In this regard, metal nanomaterials have attracted great attention for their controllable antibacterial functions that are less prone to resistance. This review discusses a particular family of stimuli-activable metal-bearing nanomaterials (denoted as SAMNs) and the associated on-demand antibacterial strategies. The various SAMN-enabled antibacterial strategies stem from basic light and magnet activation, with the addition of bacterial microenvironment responsiveness and/or bacteria-targeting selectivity and therefore offer higher spatiotemporal controllability. The discussion focuses on nanomaterial design principles, antibacterial mechanisms, and antibacterial performance, as well as emerging applications that desire on-demand and selective activation (i.e., medical antibacterial treatments, surface anti-biofilm, water disinfection, and wearable antibacterial materials). The review concludes with the authors' perspectives on the challenges and future directions for developing industrial translatable next-generation antibacterial strategies.

Abstract
In this project, we have investigated the possibility of mimicking the natural photosynthesis, as well as sensing and adsorption application of aluminum decorated graphitic C3N4 (Al-g-C3N4) QDs (toward some air pollutants containing CO, CO2, and SO2). The results of the potential energy surface (PES) studies show that in all three adsorption processes, the energy changes are negative (-10.70 kcal mol-1, -16.81 kcal mol-1, and -79.97 kcal mol-1 for CO, CO2, and SO2 gasses, respectively). Thus, all of the adsorption processes (mainly SO2) are spontaneous. Moreover, the frontier molecular orbital (FMO) investigations indicate that the Al-g-C3N4 QD could be used as a suitable semiconductor sensor for detection of CO, and CO2 (as carbon oxides) in one hand, and SO2 gaseous species on the other hand. Finally, the results reveal that those QDs could be applied for artificial photosynthesis (in presence of CO2; Δμh-e = 1.43 V), and for water splitting process for the H2 generation (Δμh-e = 1.23 V) as a clean fuel for near future.

Abstract
In this work, the behavior of favipiravir (FAV) adsorption on the pristine (2,2) graphyne-based γ-nanotube (GYNT) was theoretically studied. Also, the Si-doped form (Si-GYNT) and its composite with encapsulated Fe2O3 (Fe2O3@Si-GYNT) were investigated within density functional theory (DFT) calculations, using M05 functionals and B3LYP. It was found that FAV is weakly to moderately adsorb on the bare GYNT and Si-GYNT tube, releasing the energy of 2.2 to 19.8 kcal/mol. After FAV adsorption, the bare tube's electronic properties are changed. Localized impurity is induced at the valence and conduction levels by encapsulating a tiny Fe2O3 cluster. As such, the target composite becomes a magnetic material. The binding energy between the Fe2O3@Si-GYNT and the FAV molecule becomes substantially stronger (Ead = -25.2 kcal/mol). We developed a drug release system in target parts of body, during protonation in the low pH of injured cells, detaching the FAV from the tube surface. The drug's reaction mechanism with Fe2O3@Si-GYNT shifts from covalence in the normal environment to hydrogen bonding in an acidic matrix. The optimized structure's natural bond orbital, quantum molecular descriptors, LUMO, HOMO and energy gap were also investigated. The recovery time can be reduced to less than 10 s by increasing the working temperature properly during the experimental test.

Abstract
Injectable hydrogels have gained considerable attention, but they are typically mechanically weak and subject to repeated physiological stresses in the body. Herein, we prepared polyurethane diacrylate (EPC-DA) hydrogels, which are injectable and can be photocrosslinked into fatigue-resistant implants. The mechanical properties can be tuned by changing photocrosslinking conditions, and the hybrid-crosslinked EPC-DA hydrogels exhibited high stability and sustained release properties. In contrast to common injectable hydrogels, EPC-DA hydrogels exhibited excellent antifatigue properties with >90% recovery during cyclic compression tests and showed shape stability after application of force and immersion in an aqueous buffer for 35 days. The EPC-DA hydrogel formed a shape-stable hydrogel depot in an ex vivo porcine skin model, with establishment of a temporary soft gel before in situ fixing by UV crosslinking. Hybrid crosslinking using injectable polymeric micelles or nanoparticles may be a general strategy for producing hydrogel implants resistant to physiological stresses.

Abstract
Supramolecular hydrogels have attracted considerable interest due to their unique stimuli-responsive and self-healing properties. However, these hydrogel systems are usually achieved by covalent grafting of supramolecular units onto the polymer backbone, which in turn limits their reprocessability. Herein, we prepared a supramolecular hydrogel system by forming dynamic covalent crosslinks between 4-carboxyphenylboronic acid (CPBA) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). The system was then further crosslinked with either calcium ions or branched polyethylenimine (PEI) to generate hydrogels with distinctly different properties. Incorporation of calcium ions resulted in the formation of hydrogels with higher storage modulus of 7290 Pa but without self-healing properties. On the other hand, PEI-crosslinked hydrogel (PVA-CPBA-PEI) exhibited >2000% critical strain value, demonstrated high stability over 52 days and showed sustained antibacterial effect. A combination of supramolecular interactions and dynamic covalent crosslinks can be an alternate strategy to fabricate next generation hydrogel materials.

Abstract
This paper focused on the efficiency of carbon nitride nanotubes functionalized with alanine amino acid (f-C3NNTs) in thiotepa (TPA) anti-cancerous drug delivery via density functional theory (DFT). Pristine C3NNTs were incorporated for comparison. TPA was found to spontaneously undergo exothermic adsorption onto the nanostructures. The f-C3NNT/TPA complexes showed the highest interaction strength. The adsorption distance of TPA was found to be smaller, with a greater adsorption capacity and solubility on the f-C3NNT surface than on the pristine C3NNT surface. As they were polar, all the complexes were concluded to be insoluble within an aqueous phase. The quantum molecular descriptors revealed the f-C3NNT nanocarriers to be more reactive than the C3NNT carrier. The drug was found to spontaneously and exothermically interact with f-C3NNT. As a result, f-C3NNT would be promising for TPA adsorption in drug delivery applications.

Abstract
For the first time, biocompatible and biodegradable Ta-metal organic framework (MOF)/polyether block amide (PEBA) fibrous polymeric nanostructures were synthesized by ultrasonic and electrospinning routes in this study. The XRD peaks of products were wider, which is due to the significant effect of the ultrasonic and electrospinning methods on the final product. The adsorption/desorption behavior of the nanostructures is similar to that of the third type of isotherm series, which showed mesoporous behavior for the products. The sample has uniform morphology without any evidence of agglomeration. Since the adsorption and trapping of gaseous pollutants are very important, the application of the final Ta-MOF/PEBA fibrous polymeric nanostructures was investigated for CH4 adsorption. In order to achieve the optimal conditions of experiments and also systematic studies of the parameters, fractional factorial design was used. The results showed that by selecting temperature 40°C, time duration 35 min, and pressure 3 bar, the CH4 gas adsorption rate was near 4 mmol/g. Ultrasonic and electrospinning routes as well as immobilization of Ta-MOF in the PEBA fibrous network affect the performance of the final products for CH4 gas adsorption.

Abstract
To monitor the contamination of a type A trichothecene, diacetoxyscirpenol (DAS), one monoclonal antibody (mAb) 8A9 with high affinity and specificity was prepared in the present study. The mAb 8A9 showed a 50% inhibition concentration (IC50) of 0.31 μg/L, which is of the highest affinity reported to date. An indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ic-ELISA) and lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) based on mAb 8A9 were developed and exhibited limits of detection as low as 0.65 μg/kg and 100 μg/kg in rice samples, respectively. The molecular recognition mechanism of mAb 8A9 to DAS was explored by molecular docking. The results showed that the hydrophobic amino acids of mAb 8A9 interacted with DAS by forming hydrogen bonds and a pi-sigma bond, which lead to a highly specific recognition of DAS. In summary, we produced one mAb, developed ELISA and LFIA for DAS detection in rice with significantly sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and precision.

Abstract
This paper implemented the density functional theory (DFT) to evaluate a nano-structured sensor of the metronidazole (ML) drug based on the interaction between pristine B24N24 nanocage and the drug. Chemisorption (adsorption energy = - 13.77 to - 15.11 kcal/mol) and physisorption (= - 1.48 to - 4.97 kcal/mol) were estimated to be potential mechanisms of adsorption. The substantial rise in the electrical conductivity of B24N24 suggested that the nanocage was capable of generating electronic noise in interaction with the drug. In addition, the adsorption of the drug significantly influenced the work function, Fermi level, and complexes (chemisorption) of the highest stability. This suggests that one can detect ML through the Φ-type nano-sensing efficiency of B24N24. The recovery process takes nearly 0.005 s, and it was observed that bare B24N24 nanocages could be employed without costly manipulations of the structure for sensitivity improvement. The UV-Vis results indicated that ML adsorption upshifted the transmission wavelength at 391.07 nm. Thus, the close distance of the drug molecule from the nanocage led to the redshift. It was concluded that B24N24 nanocages could be an effective and efficient nanosensor for the detection of ML in light of their structural characteristics and electronic properties.

Abstract
This article describes the synthesis of nanostructured copper oxide on copper wires and its application for the detection of hydrogen peroxide. Copper oxide petal nanostructures were obtained by a one-step hydrothermal oxidation method. The resulting coating is uniform and dense and shows good adhesion to the wire surface. Structure, surface, and composition of the obtained samples were studied using field-emission scanning electron microscopy along with energy-dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffractometry. The resulting nanostructured samples were used for electrochemical determination of the H2O2 content in a 0.1 M NaOH buffer solution using cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse voltammetry, and i-t measurements. A good linear relationship between the peak current and the concentration of H2O2 in the range from 10 to 1800 μM was obtained. The sensitivity of the obtained CuO electrode is 439.19 μA·mM-1. The calculated limit of detection is 1.34 μM, assuming a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. The investigation of the system for sensitivity to interference showed that the most common interfering substances, that is, ascorbic acid, uric acid, dopamine, NaCl, glucose, and acetaminophen, do not affect the electrochemical response. The real milk sample test showed a high recovery rate (more than 95%). According to the obtained results, this sensor is suitable for practical use for the qualitative detection of H2O2 in real samples, as well as for the quantitative determination of its concentration.

Abstract
Fruit juices (FJs) are frequently taken owing to their nutritious benefits, appealing flavour, and vibrant colour. The colours of the FJs are critical indicators of the qualitative features that influence the consumer's attention. Although FJs' intrinsic acidity serves as a barrier to bacterial growth, their enzymatic stability remains an issue for their shelf life. Inactivation of enzymes is critical during FJ processing, and selective inactivation is the primary focus of enzyme inactivation. The merchants, on the other hand, want the FJs to stay stable. The most prevalent technique of processing FJ is by conventional heat treatment, which degrades its nutritive value and appearance. The FJ processing industry has undergone a dramatic transformation from thermal treatments to nonthermal treatments (NTTs) during the past two decades to meet the requirements for microbiological and enzymatic stability. The manufacturers want safe and stable FJs, while buyers want high-quality FJs. According to the past investigation, NTTs have the potential to manufacture microbiologically safe and enzymatically stable FJs with low loss of bioactive components. Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that different NTTs combined with or without other NTTs or mild heating as a hurdle technology increase the synergistic effect for microbiological safety and stability of FJs. Concise information about the variables that affect NTTs' action mode has also been addressed. Primary inactivates enzymes by modifying the protein structure and active site conformation. NTTs may increase enzyme activity depending on the nature of the enzyme contained in FJs, the applied pressure, pH, temperature, and treatment period. This is due to the release of membrane-bound enzymes as well as changes in protein structure and active sites that allow substrate interaction. Additionally, the combination of several NTTs as a hurdle technology, as well as temperature and treatment periods, resulted in increased enzyme inactivation in FJs. Therefore, a combination of thermal and non-thermal technologies is suggested to increase the effectiveness of the process as well as preserve the juice quality.

Abstract
Graphene has been considered as an excellent biochemical sensors’ substrate material because of its excellent physical and chemical properties. Most of these sensors have employed enzymes, antibodies, antigens, and other biomolecules with corresponding recognition ability as recognition elements, to convert chemical signals into electrical signals. However, oxidoreductase enzymes that grow on graphene surfaces are affected significantly by the environment and are easily inactivated, which hinders the further improvement of detection sensitivity and robusticity. A gold-boosted graphene sensor was fabricated by the in situ electrochemical deposition of inorganic gold nanoparticles on vertical graphene nanosheets. This approach solves the instability of biological enzymes and improves the detection performance of graphene-based sensors. The uric acid sensitivity of the gold-boosted electrode was 6230 µA mM−1 cm−2, which is 6 times higher than the original graphene electrode. A 7 h GNSs/CC electrode showed an impressive detection performance for ascorbic acid, dopamine, and uric acid, simultaneously. Moreover, it exhibited a reliable detection performance in human serum in terms of uric acid. The possible reason could be that the vertical aliened graphene nanosheet acts as a reaction active spot. This 3D graphene-nanosheet-based doping approach can be applied to a wide variety of inorganic catalytic materials to enhance their performance and improve their durability in aspects such as single-atom catalysis and integration of multiple catalytic properties.
