Abstract
In the post-pandemic era, point-of-care (POC) diagnosis of diseases is an important research frontier. Modern portable electrochemical (bio)sensors enable the design of POC diagnostics for the identification of diseases and regular healthcare monitoring. Herein, we present a critical review of the electrochemical creatinine (bio)sensors. These sensors either make use of biological receptors such as enzymes or employ synthetic responsive materials, which provide a sensitive interface for creatinine-specific interactions. The characteristics of different receptors and electrochemical devices are discussed, along with their limitations. The major challenges in the development of affordable and deliverable creatinine diagnostics and the drawbacks of enzymatic and enzymeless electrochemical biosensors are elaborated, especially considering their analytical performance parameters. These revolutionary devices have potential biomedical applications ranging from early POC diagnosis of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and other kidney-related illnesses to routine monitoring of creatinine in elderly and at-risk humans.

Abstract
An analytical methodology for detecting ammonium ion (NH4 +) in environmental water through potentiometry-ion chromatography (IC) in tandem is presented here. A multielectrode flow cell is implemented as a potentiometric detector after chromatographic separation of cations in the sample. The electrodes are fabricated via miniaturized all-solid-state configuration, using a nonactin-based plasticized polymeric membrane as the sensing element. The overall analytical setup is based on an injection valve, column, traditional conductometric detector, and new potentiometric detector (in that order), permitting the characterization of the analytical performance of the potentiometric detector while validating the results. The limit of detection was found to be ca. 3 × 10-7 M NH4 + concentration after linearization of the potentiometric response, and intra- and interelectrode variations of <10% were observed. Importantly, interference from other cations was suppressed in the tandem potentiometry-IC, and thus, the NH4 + content in fresh- and seawater samples from different locations was successfully analyzed. This analytical technology demonstrated a great potential for the reliable monitoring of NH4 + at micromolar levels, in contrast to the conductivity detector and previously reported NH4 + potentiometric sensors functioning in batch mode or even coupled with IC. Additionally, the suitability of the potentiometric cell for selective multi-ion analysis in the same sample, i.e., Na+, NH4 +, and K+ in water, has been proven.

Abstract
Medical diagnostic sector is relying on affordable, handheld devices integrating smart biosensing and transducing interfaces that enable clinical analysis with minimal end-user intervention and resource requirements. In response, we propose here, a SIM card-type pH responsive polymer-modified paper-based biosensing device, coupled to a smartphone, for the determination of urinary creatinine. A vertical microfluidic channel was fabricated on a paper strip by wax printing. The hydrophilic area was coated by a poly(methylmethacrylate)/poly(methacrylic acid) random copolymer, PMMA-co-PMAA, and on top of it, creatinine deiminase (CD) was immobilized. Data demonstrated, on the one hand, zero vertical flow of urine through the enzyme-free PMMA-co-PMAA-modified paper strip, i.e., a high selectivity against the components of the matrix, and on the other hand, in the presence of CD, a creatinine -concentration dependent commence of sample's downward flow due to the selective, creatinine-triggered degradation of the copolymer by the enzymatically produced ammonia. This CD/PMMA-co-PMAA paper-based biosensing smart assembly is coupled with three conductive strips, which enable the automatic on/off (sample addition/measurement end) measurement of the copolymer degradation time, through electric resistance measurements. It also features an in-built sample well and wireless communication support through the integration of a Bluetooth® microprocessor incorporated with time and resistance measuring circuits. Using newly synthesized pH responsive PMMA-co-PMAA at different molecular weights and volume fraction ratios offering tunable dissolution properties, the detection range was adjusted over 3-30 mM creatinine to overspread the normal range of creatinine in urine. The device was successfully applied to the determination of urinary creatinine.

Abstract
Potentiometric biosensors are incredibly versatile tools with budding uses in industry, security, environmental safety, and human health. This mini-review on recent (2018-2020) advances in the field of potentiometric biosensors is intended to give a general overview of the main types of potentiometric biosensors for novices while still providing a brief but thorough summary of the novel advances and trends for experienced practitioners. These trends include the incorporation of nanomaterials, graphene, and novel immobilization materials, as well as a strong push towards miniaturized, flexible, and self-powered devices for in-field or at-home use.

Abstract
Continuous monitoring of biological metabolites of interest necessitates sensors that are robust, versatile, miniaturizable, and reliable. Electrochemical biosensors have dominated the field of biosensors for decades due to their robust and inexpensive nature. Classically, these sensors use amperometric and voltammetric methods as the sensing modality. One of the greatest limitations with these methods is the dependence of the signal (current, i) on the electrode size, which can change with respect to time due to fouling. Here, we present open circuit potential, an electrochemical technique that is relatively insensitive to electrode size, as a reliable alternative to amperometric and voltammetric techniques for monitoring metabolites of interest. The sensor operates by trapping an oxidase enzyme in a chitosan hydrogel. The oxidase enzyme is required for metabolite specificity. When the oxidase enzyme meets its substrate, oxygen is consumed, and hydrogen peroxide is generated. Hydrogen peroxide generation dominates a half reaction at the platinum surface, resulting in a change in potential. Using the above criteria, we demonstrate the efficacy, long lifetime, sensitivity, and ease of fabrication of glucose sensors, and miniaturize the sensors from macro- to microelectrodes. Additionally, we demonstrate the ease with which this platform can be extended to detect other analytes in the form of a galactose sensor. Our results set a foundation for the generalized use of potentiometric sensors for a broad range of metabolites and applications.

Abstract
Hydrodynamic approaches are important for biomedical diagnostics, chemical analysis, and a broad range of industrial applications. Size-based separation and sorting is an important tool for these applications. We report the integration of hypersound technology with patterned protein films to provide efficient sorting of microparticles based on particle charge and size. We employed a hypersonic resonator for the acoustic streaming of the fluidic system to generate microvortices that exert drag forces on the objects on the surface that are dictated by their radius of curvature. We demonstrate a size-based sorting of anionic silica particles using protein patterns and gradients fabricated using attractive cationic and repulsive anionic proteins.

Abstract
A molecularly imprinted polymer-modified potentiometric histamine (HIS) sensor was prepared and used for quantitative determination of HIS in bovine serum. The calibration curve using the potential responses measured in 1 × 10-3 mol L-1 phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) showed good linearity in the HIS concentration range of 3 × 10-4 to 1 × 10-2 mol L-1 (r = 0.92), with a detection limit of 1.6 × 10-4 mol L-1. In bovine serum samples, the HIS sensor showed good recovery values of 91 - 104%. Therefore, this HIS sensor successfully determined the HIS concentration in bovine serum samples.
