Abstract
Creating high-performance gas sensors for heptanal detection at room temperature demands the development of sensing materials that incorporate distinct spatial configurations, functional components, and active surfaces. In this study, we employed a straightforward method combining hydrothermal strategy with ultrasonic processing to produce mesoporous graphene quantum dots/bismuth antimonate (GQDs/BiSbO4) with nanorod cluster forms. The BiSbO4 was incorporated with appropriate contents of GQDs resulting in significantly improved attributes such as heightened sensitivity (59.6@30 ppm), a lower threshold for detection (356 ppb), and quicker period for response (40 s). A synergistic mechanism that leverages the inherent advantages of BiSbO4 was proposed, while its distinctive mesoporous hollow cubic structure, the presence of oxygen vacancies, and the catalytic enhancement provided by GQDs lead to a marked improvement in heptanal detection. This work introduces a straightforward and effective method for crafting sophisticated micro-nanostructures that optimize spatial design, functionality, and active mesoporous surfaces, showing great promise for heptanal sensing applications.

[PMID: 38405435 PMCID: PMC10882693 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c06346] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2023] [Revised: 10/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/09/2023] [Indexed: 02/27/2024]
Abstract
An efficient and noninvasive method of sensing lung cancer at an early stage is through detecting its biomarkers in the patient's exhaled breath. Acetone (C3H6O), benzene (C6H6), and isoprene (C5H8) emerged as crucial biomarkers, which were significantly elevated in lung cancer patients. Here, we investigated the adsorption behaviors of the three gas molecules on pristine and transition metal (TM)-doped (Au and Pd) SnS2 monolayers using the density functional theory (DFT) method. Our findings indicate that both Au- and Pd-doped SnS2 display higher adsorption energies (-0.53 to -1.313 eV) than that of the pure SnS2 monolayer (0.031 to 0.066 eV). Specifically, Pd-SnS2 exhibits smaller adsorption energy compared to that of Au-SnS2 when capturing C3H6O, C6H6, and C5H8. The estimated recovery times for Pd-SnS2 (8.016 × 10-4 to 16.02 s) are shorter compared to those of Au-SnS2 (1.11 to 1.14 × 1010 s), indicating the superior capability of Pd-SnS2 over Au-SnS2 as a reversible sensor. Afterward, calculations of band structure, projected density of states (PDOS), and charge transfer were performed, which further substantiates the more promising potentials for Pd-doped SnS2 monolayer as gas sensors over the others. Overall, our results suggest that Pd-SnS2 is a better candidate for C3H6O, C6H6, and C5H8 detection over Au-SnS2 and pristine SnS2.

Abstract
Diabetes could impact many ocular tissues. However, the association of the serum aldehydes with diabetes-related eye diseases (DED) remains unclear. Thus, we aimed to examine the above relationship from the general US population of 2013-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). The multivariable logistic regression and Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) were used to analyze the effect of serum aldehydes on the risk of DED. Pearson's correlation analysis, the restricted cubic spline (RCS) model, and the linear regression were performed to explore the association between the serum aldehydes and other parameters. The multivariable linear regression was conducted to further underlie the relationship between the serum aldehydes and the glycohemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in DED participants. Although no significant association was observed between the serum aldehydes and the risk of DED by the multivariable logistic regression and BKMR, the Pearson correlation revealed a positive association between the HbA1c level and the serum level of heptanaldehyde and isopentanaldehyde in DED participants. The RCS model confirmed the above linear correlation. After adjusting for the cofounding factor of smoking, the multivariable linear regression revealed a significant association between the serum level of heptanaldehyde and the HbA1c level in DED participants. Our results suggest that aldehyde exposure did not significantly increase the risk of DED, while heptanaldehyde was the risk factor for increased HbA1c in DED population.

Abstract
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are gaseous chemicals found in ambient air and exhaled breath. In particular, highly reactive aldehydes are frequently found in polluted air and have been linked to various diseases. Thus, extensive studies have been carried out to elucidate disease-specific aldehydes released from the body to develop potential biomarkers for diagnostic purposes. Mammals possess innate sensory systems, such as receptors and ion channels, to detect these VOCs and maintain physiological homeostasis. Recently, electronic biosensors such as the electronic nose have been developed for disease diagnosis. This review aims to present an overview of natural sensory receptors that can detect reactive aldehydes, as well as electronic noses that have the potential to diagnose certain diseases. In this regard, this review focuses on eight aldehydes that are well-defined as biomarkers in human health and disease. It offers insights into the biological aspects and technological advances in detecting aldehyde-containing VOCs. Therefore, this review will aid in understanding the role of aldehyde-containing VOCs in human health and disease and the technological advances for improved diagnosis.

Abstract
COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019), a viral respiratory ailment that was first identified in Wuhan, China, in 2019, and then expanded globally, was caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The severity of the illness necessitated quick action to cease the virus's spread. The best practices to avert the infection include early detection, the use of protective clothing, the consumption of antiviral medicines, and finally the immunization of the patients through vaccination. The family of carbon nanomaterials, which includes graphene, fullerene, carbon nanotube (CNT), and carbon dot (CD), has a great deal of potential to effectively contribute to each of the main trails in the battle against the coronavirus. Consequently, the recent advances in the application of carbon nanomaterials for containing and combating the SARS-CoV-2 virus are discussed herein, along with their associated challenges and futuristic applicability.

Abstract
Human respiration is accompanied with abundant physiological and pathological information, such as the change in ammonia (NH3) content, which is related to chronic kidney disease (CKD); hence, monitoring the breathing behavior helps in health assessment and illness prediction. In this work, a wearable respiration sensor based on CeO2@polyaniline (CeO2@PANI) nanocomposites that underwent a hydrogen plasma treatment is developed. The results unambiguously show that the response of the corresponding nanocomposites is significantly enhanced from 165 to 670% to 100 ppm NH3 compared to the counterpart that did not undergo hydrogen plasma treatment and even reaches 24% to 50 ppb NH3, suggesting its fascinating capability of detecting the trace level of NH3 in human breathing. The superior response for NH3 is ascribed to the stable oxygen vacancies produced by the hydrogen plasma treatment. Furthermore, the clinical tests for patients with uremia suggest that the as-designed sensor has potential applications in clinical monitoring for CKD. Herein, this work offers a new strategy to obtain respiration sensors with high performance and provides a feasible approach for health evaluation and disease monitoring of patients with CKD.
