Abstract
The conventional luminol-based electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor suffers from hampered signal stability due to the self-decomposition of the H2O2 co-reactant. Here, we propose an N-doped TiO2/Ti3C2 heterojunction driven self-photocatalytic platform for ECL signal amplification and then combine it with molecular imprinting technology for sensitive and steady detection of dexamethasone (DXM). Unlike traditional cases involving specific catalysts or external electron injection, the initial luminescence of luminol in this new system is utilized as the excitation light of N-doped TiO2/Ti3C2 photocatalyst to promote the conversation of dissolved oxygen to H2O2, supplying more co-reactants to improve ECL of luminol in turn. Thanks to the heterojunction and self-photocatalytic cyclic amplification, this molecularly imprinted ECL sensor exhibits a wide linear range (1.0 × 10-6-1.0 × 101 μg mL-1) and a low detection limit, as well as excellent anti-interference capability, sensitivity, and stability. This work contributes to more reliable and steady detection of DXM and brings new insights into developing exogenous co-reactant-free self-enhancement ECL models for biosensor applications.

Abstract
We report on a combined experimental and theoretical study concerning the electrochemical behavior of the dexamethasone (DEX) on a graphene modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE). A good agreement between experiments and density functional theory (DFT)-based calculations is observed for the DEX reduction. The electrochemical behavior of the DEX was investigated on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with different type of graphenes, including graphene quantum dot (GQD), graphene oxide (GO), electrochemically synthesized graphene (EG), graphene synthesized by the Hummer method (HG) and graphene nanoplate (GNP) using voltammetric techniques (CV, DPV and SWV). The results exhibited a significant increase in the reduction of the peak current of the DEX in the GNP modified GCE (GNP/GCE) in comparison to other modified electrodes and bare GCE. The unique morphology, size and electro catalytic properties of the GNP cause a sensitive response of the DEX in a novel sensor. Under the optimized experimental condition, the GNP/ GCE showed two linear dynamic ranges of 0.1-50 μM and 50-5000 μM with a low detection limit of 15 nM for determination of the DEX. The novel sensor is successfully applied to the sensitive determination of the DEX in human plasma samples with satisfactory recoveries. Energy of the LUMO and HUMO orbitals and energy calculations for the DEX molecule interacting with graphene were performed using the density functional B3LYP/6-31G. The theoretical results allied to significant charge transfer took place due to the interaction of the DEX with the applied graphene.

Abstract
L-Cysteine capped CdS quantum dots (QDs) were synthesized through a facile hydrothermal method and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), photoluminescence (PL) and UV-Vis spectroscopy. The light emitted from KMnO4-L-cysteine capped CdS QDs reaction in acidic medium was applied as a simple and sensitive chemiluminescence (CL) system for determination of dexamethasone. The CL intensity of KMnO4-L-cysteine capped CdS QDs CL system was remarkably enhanced in the presence of dexamethasone. Under optimum experimental conditions, the enhanced CL intensity was related to dexamethasone concentration in the range of 0.004-25.0 mg L(-1), with the detection limit (3σ) of 0.0013 mg L(-1). The analytical applicability of the proposed CL system was assessed by determining dexamethasone in spiked environmental water samples and pharmaceutical formulation. The analytical performances of proposed flow-injection CL method for the determination of dexamethasone were compared with those obtained by corona discharge ionization ion mobility spectrometry (CD-IMS) method. The proposed CL system exhibits a higher sensitivity and precision than the CD-IMS method for the determination of dexamethasone.

Abstract
A novel method was developed for the simultaneous determination of glucocorticoid residues such as triamcinolone (TR), prednisolone (PR), hydrocortisone (HC), cortisone (CO), methylprednisolone (MP), dexamethasone (DE) and triamcinolone acetonide (TA) by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with chemiluminescence (CL) detection. The procedure was based on the enhancement effect of glucocorticoids on the chemiluminescence reaction between luminol and the complex of trivalent copper and periodate ([Cu(HIO6)2]5-), which was on-line electrogenerated by constant current electrolysis. The HPLC separation used a Nucleosil RP-C18 column (250 mmx4.6 mm i.d., 5 microm, pore size, 100 A) with a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and 1.0 mmol L(-1) ammonium acetate (pH 6.8, 40:60,v/v) at a flow rate of 0.8 mL min(-1). The effects of several parameters on the HPLC resolution and CL emission were studied systematically. Liver samples were hydrolyzed with Helix pomatia juice followed by a solid-phase extraction procedure. Under optimum conditions, the limits of detection (LOD) at a signal-to-noise of 3 ranged from 0.08 to 1.0 ng g(-1) and the limits of quantification (LOQ) at a signal-to-noise of 10 ranged from 0.27 to 3.33 ng g(-1) for seven glucocorticoids. The relative standard deviations (RSD) of intra- and inter-day precision were below 6.8%. The average recoveries for glucocorticoids (spiked at the levels of 5-50 ng g(-1)) in pig liver ranged from 88 to 106%, and the relative standard deviations of the quantitative results were from 2.0 to 6.9%. The proposed method had been successfully applied to the determination of glucocorticoid residues in pig liver.

Abstract
The development of a black market of chemical cocktails for illegal growth promotion in food-producing animals includes substances that are potentially dangerous for human health, such as synthetic corticosteroids. The potential presence of these residues in food makes it necessary to develop rapid and sensitive analytical methodologies to detect such substances, preferably in live animals before they arrive at the market. A chemiluminescence (CL) detection method for the determination of four synthetic corticosteroids (prednisolone, betamethasone, dexamethasone and flumethasone) in bovine urine has been developed. The proposed system, which does not need any derivatization procedure, offers an easy method well suited for routine research. Urine samples were homogenized with methanol:water (50:50, v/v) and centrifuged. The upper layer was collected and Strata X cartridges were used for cleaning up. The purified residues were evaporated to dryness and then redissolved in the mobile phase. Analysis of the extracts was performed using high-performance liquid chromatography with chemiluminescence detection, employing luminol as the CL reagent. The recovery curves, obtained at four spiking levels (different for each corticosteroid), showed that recoveries of at least 70% could be obtained for urine. The chemiluminescence detection procedure afforded satisfactory results with respect to sensitivity and the LOD and LOQ, taken as the first point of the regression curve, ranged from 4 ppb to 65 ppb. The maximum mean RSD was below 13% and below 15% for intra- and inter-day assay, respectively, in all cases.

Abstract
A new method for the rapid extraction and unequivocal confirmation of two highly potent fluorinated synthetic corticosteroids, dexamethasone and its beta-epimer betamethasone, in bovine liver was developed. Flumethasone was used as internal standard. An extraction procedure using an accelerated solvent extraction system was employed for the isolation of the analytes in liver samples. The procedure was highly automated, including defatting and extraction steps, sequentially carried out under 1.0 x 10(4) kPa in about 35 min. The extracts were then directly analysed by tandem mass spectrometry with on-line liquid chromatography. The analytes were ionised in a heated nebulizer interface operating in the negative ion mode where the molecular related ions [M-H-CH2O]- were generated for each analyte, at m/z 361 for betamethasone and dexamethasone and at m/z 379 for flumethasone. They served as precursor ions for collision-induced dissociation and three diagnostic product ions for the drugs were identified to carry out analyte confirmation by selected reaction monitoring. Assessment of recovery, specificity and precision for betamethasone, dexamethasone and flumethasone proved the method suitable for confirmatory purposes. The limit of quantification of betamethasone and dexamethasone in liver tissue was 1.0 microg/kg.

Abstract
In this study a new method for the simultaneous confirmation of betamethasone and dexamethasone residues in bovine liver is presented. A Quattro LCZ triple quadrupole mass spectrometer, equipped with an atmospheric pressure ionization (API) source, was coupled to a high performance liquid chromatograph (HPLC) system. Spiked liver samples were first extracted with acetonitrile, and the extracts were purified on C-18 columns. LC separations were performed on a Hypercarb column, with acetonitrile/water (90:10, v/v, +0.3% formic acid) as the mobile phase. Retention times for dexa- and betamethasone were 6.60 and 8.50 min, respectively. Fluorometholone had a retention time of 6.70 min and was used as the internal standard. The detection of the analytes was performed in the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. The assay was linear over the range of 0.5 to 8 microg/kg for both analytes. The estimated determination limits were 0.2 microg/kg for both beta- and dexamethasone and the quantification limits were 0.4 microg/kg for dexamethasone and 0.3 microg/kg for betamethasone. Analysis precision at 1, 2 and 4 microg/kg was lower than 6.1% (relative standard deviation, RSD) and accuracy was at least 97.5%. Recoveries at 1, 2 and 4 microg/kg ranged between 56 and 69%.
