Abstract
Herein, a novel electrochemical sensor that was used for the first time for sensitive and selective detection of dopamine (DA) was fabricated. The new sensor is based on the decoration of the glassy carbon electrode surface (GC) with a polymer film of 1,3-Benzothiazol-2-yl((4-carboxlicphenyl)hydrazono)) acetonitrile (poly(BTCA). The prepared (poly(BTCA) was examined by using different techniques such as 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FTIR, and UV-visible spectroscopy. The electrochemical investigations of DA were assessed using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The results obtained showed that the modifier increased the electrocatalytic efficiency with a noticeable increase in the oxidation peak current of DA in 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution (PBS) at an optimum pH of 7.0 and scan rate of 200 mV/s when compared to unmodified GC. The new sensor displays a good performance for detecting DA with a limit of detection (LOD 3σ), and limit of quantification (LOQ 10σ) are 0.28 nM and 94 nM respectively. The peak current of DA is linearly proportional to the concentration in the range from 0.1 to 10.0 µM. Additionally, the fabricated electrode showed sufficient reproducibility, stability, and selectivity for DA detection in the presence of different interferents. The proposed poly(BTCA)/GCE sensor was effectively applied to detect DA in the biological samples.

Abstract
The neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) plays important roles in the human body, including regulatory functions, movement, memory and motivational control. The direct intake of DA is impossible as it cannot cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) efficiently. Notably, l-tyrosine works as a precursor of DA in the human brain. Herein, we report an analytical method that strongly supports the hypothesis that the intake of tyrosine (Tyr)-rich food enhances DA levels. For this analysis, citrate-coated gold-core silver-shell nanoparticles (Au@Ag NPs) were synthesized. The interaction of DA with the Au@Ag NPs was investigated using multiple spectroscopic techniques, and different thermodynamic parameters were evaluated to assign the binding mechanism. Real sample analysis with Tyr-rich food was also conducted to study the effect of Tyr on DA levels. Analytical studies were performed to verify the outcomes of the present work. The limit of detection of the Au@Ag NPs-DA system for Tyr was found to be 1.64 mM. This study can contribute to development in the fields of medicine and pharmaceuticals, particularly in regard to neuromedicine. One of the major advantages of this investigation is that it will fuel research interest in the supplementation of neurotransmitters and help categorize Tyr as a dietary precursor of dopamine.

Abstract
In the present study, two iron phthalocyanine (FePc)-based nanocatalysts were synthesized and fully characterized. The carbon nanotubes (CNT) functionalized in an easy way with either Fe(II)Pc or Fe(III)Pc exhibit a very good catalytical activity. The activity in real wastewater effluent was comparable with the activity in distilled water. The procedure of modeling and optimizing with the assistance of chemometrics, utilizing design of experiments (DOE) and response surface methodology (RSM), revealed the conditions of optimum for decaying Reactive Yellow 84 on the nanocatalysts FePc_CNT. These optimal conditions included a catalyst dose of 1.70 g/L and an initial concentration (C0) of 20.0 mg/L. Under the indicated optimal conditions, the experimental findings verified that the removal efficiency was equal to Y = 98.92%, representing the highest observed value in this study. Under UVA light, after only 15 min of reaction, over 94% of dye was removed using both catalysts. The reuse experiments show that the activity of both nanohybrid material based on FePc-CNT slightly decreases over four consecutive runs. The quenching experiments show that RY84 was removed through radical pathways (O2•- and •OH) as well as non-radical pathways (1O2 and direct electron transfer).

Abstract
Dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA), which are vital components in human metabolism, cause several health problems if they are present in altered concentrations; thus, the determination of DA and UA is essential in real samples using selective sensors. In the present study, graphite carbon paste electrodes (CPE) were fabricated using ZnO/carbon quantum dots (ZnO/CQDs) and employed as electrochemical sensors for the detection of DA and UA. These electrodes were fully characterized via different analytical techniques (XRD, SEM, TEM, XPS, and EDS). The electrochemical responses from the modified electrodes were evaluated using cyclic voltammetry, square wave voltammetry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The results showed that the present electrode has exhibited high sensitivity towards DA, recognizing even at low concentrations (0.12 μM), and no inference was observed in the presence of UA. The ZnO/CQD electrode was applied for the simultaneous detection of co-existing DA and UA in real human urine samples and the peak potential separation between DA and UA was found to be greatly associated with the synergistic effect originated from ZnO and CQDs. The limit of detection (LOD) of the electrode was analyzed, and compared with other commercially available electrodes. Thus, the ZnO/CQD electrode was used to detect DA and UA in real samples, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells.

Abstract
Coronavirus is caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus has shown rapid proliferation and scarcity of treatments with proven effectiveness. In this way, we simulated the hospitalization of carbon nanospheres, with external active sites of the SARS-CoV-2 virus (M-Pro, S-Gly and E-Pro), which can be adsorbed or inactivated when interacting with the nanospheres. The computational procedures performed in this work were developed with the SwissDock server for molecular docking and the GROMACS software for molecular dynamics, making it possible to extract relevant data on affinity energy, distance between molecules, free Gibbs energy and mean square deviation of atomic positions, surface area accessible to solvents. Molecular docking indicates that all ligands have an affinity for the receptor's active sites. The nanospheres interact favorably with all proteins, showing promising results, especially C60, which presented the best affinity energy and RMSD values for all protein macromolecules investigated. The C60 with E-Pro exhibited the highest affinity energy of -9.361 kcal/mol, demonstrating stability in both molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations. Our RMSD calculations indicated that the nanospheres remained predominantly stable, fluctuating within a range of 2 to 3 Å. Additionally, the analysis of other structures yielded promising results that hold potential for application in other proteases.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Acaricide resistance and novel photosensitizing approach as alternative acaricides against the camel tick, Hyalomma dromedarii. PHOTOCHEMICAL & PHOTOBIOLOGICAL SCIENCES : OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE EUROPEAN PHOTOCHEMISTRY ASSOCIATION AND THE EUROPEAN SOCIETY FOR PHOTOBIOLOGY 2023; 22:87-101.

Abstract
The control of the camel tick, Hyalomma dromedarii is very crucial. This study evaluated the novel toxicity of photosensitizers and Phoxim insecticide against H. dromedarii males using the adult immersion tests. Ticks were subjected to sunlight for 10 min post-treatment (PT). The optical characters of the applied materials were determined by UV-Vis spectroscopy (250-900 nm wavelengths). The intensity of spectra decreased as dye concentration decreased. The optical bandgap energies of the dyes at different concentrations were not changed as the concentration changed and decreased as the absorption peak of individual dyes red-shifted. The mortalities 72 h PT reached 42.2%, 44.4%, 51.1%, 71.1%, 46.7%, 48.9%, 44.4%, and 55.6% for chlorophyllin, echinochrome, field stain, methylene blue, phthalocyanine, rhodamine 6G, riboflavin, and safranin, respectively. Methylene blue recorded the highest median lethal concentration (LC50 = 127 ppm) followed by safranin, field stain, rhodamine 6G, phthalocyanine, echinochrome riboflavin, and chlorophyllin (LC50 = 209, 251, 271, 303, 324, 332, and 362 ppm, respectively, 72 h PT). Their median lethal time, LT50, values PT with 240 ppm were 45, 87, 96, 72, 129, 115, 131, and 137 h, respectively. The relative toxicities of the LC50 values 72 h PT showed that chlorophyllin, echinochrome, field stain, methylene blue, phthalocyanine, rhodamine 6G, riboflavin, and safranin were 3.2, 3.6, 4.6, 9.1, 3.8, 4.3, 3.5, and 5.6 times, respectively, more effective than Phoxim. Methylene blue, safranin, and field stain showed a broad absorbance area indicating a large photoactivity and better phototoxicity and could be used as alternative agents to synthetic acaricides.

Abstract
Cobalt phthalocyanine multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CoPc-MWCNTs), a nanocomposite, are extraordinary electrochemical sensing materials. This material has attracted growing interest owing to its unique physicochemical properties. Notably, the metal at the center of the metal phthalocyanine structure offers an enhanced redox-active behavior used to design solid electrodes for determining varieties of analytes. This review extensively discusses current developments in CoPc-MWCNTs nanocomposites as potential materials for electrochemical sensors, along with their different fabrication methods, modifying electrodes, and the detected analytes. The advantages of CoPc-MWCNTs nanocomposite as sensing material and its future perspectives are carefully reviewed and discussed.

Abstract
In this work, the optical properties of tetra(imidazole) of palladium phthalocyanine (PdPc(Im)4) in solution form and thin films on glass and fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrates were investigated via the thermal evaporation technique. The optical band gap was evaluated by ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis). The energy band gap values were determined based on the Tauc graph. In addition, time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) was used to simulate the UV-Vis absorption spectrum of the (PdPc(Im)4) molecule in the Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) solution phase. A good correlation was found between the DFT results and the experimental optical results. The band gap values between the experimental and DFT-simulated values are presented. The energy band gap of (PdPc(Im)4) obtained from the DFT calculations showed that it can be efficiently regulated. Frontier molecular orbitals and molecular electrostatic potentials were also proposed in this work. The surface study of the layers deposited on FTO was considered by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the results demonstrated good homogeneity covering the entire surface. The SEM image showed a homogeneous distribution of the grains with some spherical or rod-shaped structures and no agglomeration structures. This work rendered a strategy for regulating the energy band gap and compared the experimental observations obtained with theoretical studies, which provides a fundamental insight into the optical band for optoelectronic and thin-film solar cells.

Abstract
The development of high-performance humidity sensors to cater for a plethora of applications, ranging from agriculture to intelligent medical monitoring systems, calls for the selection of a reliable and ultrasensitive sensing material. A simplistic device architecture, robust quantification of ambient relative humidity (% RH), and compatibility with the contemporary integrated circuit technology make a bimodal (capacitive and resistive) surface-type sensor to be a prominent choice for device fabrication. Herein, we have proposed and demonstrated a facile realization of a 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrinatonickel (II)-zinc oxide (TPPNi-ZnO) nanocomposite-based bimodal surface-type % RH sensor. The TPPNi macromolecule and ZnO nanoparticles have been synthesized by an eco-benign microwave-assisted technique and a thermal-budget chemical precipitation method, respectively. It is speculated from the morpohological study that specific surface area improvement, via the provision of ZnO nanoparticles on micro-pyramidal structures of TPPNi, may reinforce the sensing properties of the fabricated humidity sensor. The relative humidity sensing capacitive and resistive characteristics of the sensor have been monitored in 40-85% relative humidity (% RH) bandwidth. The fabricated sensor under the biasing conditions of 1 V of applied bias (V rms) and 500 Hz AC test frequency exhibits a significantly higher sensitivity of 387.03 pF/% RH and 95.79 kΩ/% RH in bimodal operation. The average values of both the response and recovery times of the capacitive sensor have been estimated to be ∼30 s. It has also been debated why this high degree of sensitivity and considerable reduction in response/recovery time has been obtained. In addition, the intense and wide bandwidth spectral response of the TPPNi-ZnO nanocomposite indicates that it may also be utilized as a potential light-harvesting heterostructured nanohybrid in future studies.

Abstract
The supercapacitive properties of synthesized nickel phthalocyanine multiwalled carbon nanotubes nanocomposite on a glassy carbon electrode (NiPcMWCNTs-GCE) in four different electrolytes were investigated. The successful synthesis of the NiPcMWCNTs nanocomposite was confirmed by UV/vis electrode spectroscopy, SEM, TEM, EDX, and XRD techniques. The supercapacitive behaviors of the modified electrodes were examined in PBS, H2SO4, Na2SO4, and SAB electrolytes via CV and EIS techniques. The highest specific capacitance of 6.80 F g-1 was achieved for the GCE-NiPcMWCNTs electrode in 5 mM [Fe(CN)6]4-/3- prepared in 0.1 M PBS (pH 7). Charge transfer resistance Rct values of 0.06, 0.36, 0.61, and 1.98 kΩ were obtained for the GCE-NiPcMWCNTs in H2SO4, SAB, Na2SO4, and PBS electrolytes, respectively. Power density values, otherwise known as the "knee" frequency f°, of 21.2, 6.87, 2.22, and 1.68 Hz were also obtained for GCE-NiPcMWCNTs in H2SO4, Na2SO4, PBS, and SAB electrolytes, respectively. GCE-NiPcMWCNTs demonstrated the fastest electron transport capability and the highest power density in H2SO4 compared to the other electrolytes. Hence, GCE-NiPcMWCNTs-modified electrodes had high stability, high energy and power densities, and a large specific capacitance.

Abstract
The new coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, caused the COVID-19 pandemic, characterized by its high rate of contamination, propagation capacity, and lethality rate. In this work, we approach the use of phthalocyanines as an inhibitor of SARS-CoV-2, as they present several interactive properties of the phthalocyanines (Pc) of Cobalt (CoPc), Copper (CuPc) and without a metal group (NoPc) can interact with SARS-CoV-2, showing potential be used as filtering by adsorption on paints on walls, masks, clothes, and air conditioning filters. Molecular modeling techniques through Molecular Docking and Molecular Dynamics were used, where the target was the external structures of the virus, but specifically the envelope protein, main protease, and Spike glycoprotein proteases. Using the g_MM-GBSA module and with it, the molecular docking studies show that the ligands have interaction characteristics capable of adsorbing the structures. Molecular dynamics provided information on the root-mean-square deviation of the atomic positions provided values between 1 and 2.5. The generalized Born implicit solvation model, Gibbs free energy, and solvent accessible surface area approach were used. Among the results obtained through molecular dynamics, it was noticed that interactions occur since Pc could bind to residues of the active site of macromolecules, demonstrating good interactions; in particular with CoPc. Molecular couplings and free energy showed that S-gly active site residues interacted strongly with phthalocyanines with values of - 182.443 kJ/mol (CoPc), 158.954 kJ/mol (CuPc), and - 129.963 kJ/mol (NoPc). The interactions of Pc's with SARS-CoV-2 may predict some promising candidates for antagonists to the virus, which if confirmed through experimental approaches, may contribute to resolving the global crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract
The development of sensitive and selective sensors using facile and low-cost methods for detecting neurotransmitter molecules is a critical factor in the health care system in regard to early diagnosis. In this research, an electrocatalyst derived from Mo,Zn dual-doped CuxO nanocrystals-based layer coating over one-dimensional copper nanowire arrays (Mo,Zn-CuxO/CuNWs) was successfully designed using a facile electrodeposition approach and used as an electrochemical sensor for non-enzymatic dopamine (DA) neurotransmitter detection. The synergistic effect caused by the dual-doping effect along with its excellent conductivity produced a large electroactive surface area and an improved hetero-charge transfer, thereby boosting DA sensing ability with a low limit detection of 0.32 µM, wide-range of detection (0.5 µM - 3.9 mM), long-term stability (5 weeks), and high selectivity in phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.4). Also, the sensor accurately determined DA in real blood serum-spiked solutions. The achieved results evidenced that the Mo,Zn-CuxO/CuNWs derived sensor is highly suitable for DA detection. Therefore, it also opens new windows for the development of low-cost, accurate, high-performance, and stable sensors for other neurotransmitter sensing for the purposes of better health care and early diagnosis.

Abstract
Manipulation of materials is considered as one of the eminent strategies to create desirable catalysts. In this regard, increasing surface area and decreasing dimensions of catalysts have been widely employed on account of effectiveness of these methods. Herein, aerogel form of chitosan as a sustainable, and high aspect ratio compound is employed as a green support for the catalytic purposes. Chitosan aerogel was modified with Fe(II)-phthalocyanine to produce a heterogeneous catalyst for oxidation reactions. The synthesized catalyst promoted the oxidation reactions of alcohols and alkyl arenes to the corresponding aldehydes and ketones using H2O2 as an oxidant in 24 h. The reactions for aliphatic and aromatic alcohols gave turnover numbers of 106-109 at 80 °C and 106-117 at room temperature, respectively. The oxidations of alkyl arenes were carried out with turnover numbers laying in the range of 106-117 at 100 °C. The low toxicity, inexpensive nature, and recycling possibility of the catalyst accompanied by the reaction mild conditions, clean oxidant, and excellent yields offer chitosan aerogel modified with Fe(II)-phthalocyanine as a promising catalyst for oxidation reactions.

Abstract
Dopamine (DA) is an important neurotransmitter, which is created and released from the central nervous system. It plays a crucial role in human activities, like cognition, emotions, and response to anything. Maladjustment of DA in human blood serum results in different neural diseases, like Parkinson's and Schizophrenia. Consequently, researchers have started working on DA detection in blood serum, which is undoubtedly a hot research area. Electrochemical sensing techniques are more promising to detect DA in real samples. However, utilizing conventional electrodes for selective determination of DA encounters numerous problems due to the coexistence of other materials, such as uric acid and ascorbic acid, which have an oxidation potential close to DA. To overcome such problems, researchers have put their focus on the modification of bare electrodes. The aim of this review is to present recent advances in modifications of most used bare electrodes with carbonaceous materials, especially graphene, its derivatives, and carbon nanotubes, for electrochemical detection of DA. A brief discussion about the mechanistic phenomena at the electrode interface has also been included in this review.

Abstract
Herein, we report the synthesis of Ce–Al (1 : 1, 1 : 3, 1 : 6, and 1 : 9) binary oxide nanoparticles by a simple co-precipitation method at room temperature to be applied for defluoridation of an aqueous solution. The characterization of the synthesized nanomaterial was performed by XRD (X-ray diffraction), FTIR (Fourier transform infrared) spectroscopy, TGA/DTA (thermogravimetric analysis/differential thermal analysis), BET (Brunauer–Emmett–Teller) surface analysis, and SEM (scanning electron microscopy). Ce–Al binary oxides in 1 : 6 molar concentration were found to have the highest surface area of 110.32 m2 g−1 with an average crystallite size of 4.7 nm, which showed excellent defluoridation capacity. The adsorptive capacity of the prepared material towards fluoride removal was investigated under a range of experimental conditions such as dosage of adsorbents, pH, and initial fluoride concentration along with adsorption isotherms and adsorption kinetics. The results indicated that fluoride adsorption on cerium–aluminum binary metal oxide nanoparticles occurred within one hour, with maximum adsorption occurring at pH 2.4. The experimental data obtained were studied using Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin adsorption isotherm models. The nanomaterial showed an exceptionally high adsorbent capacity of 384.6 mg g−1. Time-dependent kinetic studies were carried out to establish the mechanism of the adsorption process by pseudo-first-order kinetics, pseudo-second-order kinetics, and Weber–Morris intraparticle diffusion kinetic models. The results indicated that adsorption processes followed pseudo-second-order kinetics. This study suggests that cerium–aluminum binary oxide nanoparticles have good potential for fluoride removal from highly contaminated aqueous solutions. Mesoporous Ce–Al binary oxide nanomaterials prepared with a surface area of 110.32 m2 g−1 showed defluoridation capacity at pH 2.4, exhibited maximum adsorption capacity of 384.6 mg g−1 and a removal efficiency of 91.5% at a small dose of nanoadsorbent.![]()

Abstract
Exploring a robust, extremely sensitive, cost-effective and reliable assay platform for the precise analysis of dopamine (DA) has become a big challenge predominantly at the clinical level. To participate in this quest, herein, we fabricated a perylene diimide (PDI) self-assembled graphitic surface of the graphitic pencil electrode (GPE) anchored copper oxide (CuO). The self-assembled N-rich PDI led to the fast movement of ions by decreasing the bandgap and improved the electron transport kinetics with more exposed catalytic active sites, thus resulting in the robust electrochemical sensing of DA. The designed sensor exhibited good sensitivity (4 μM−1 cm−2), high structural stability, repeatability and excellent reproducibility with an RSD value of 2.9%. Moreover, the developed system showed a wide linear range (5 μM to 500 μM) and reliable selectivity even in the presence of co-existing interferants, such as ascorbic acid and uric acid. The fabricated nanohybrid was eventually employed to analyze DA in spiked physiological fluids and provided satisfactory recoveries. The designed PDI-CuO based interface also showed a very low detection limit of 6 nM (S/N = 3), consequently confirming its suitability for clinical and biological applications.

Abstract
Aza-porphyrinoids exhibit distinct spectral properties in UV-Vis, and they are studied in applications such as photosensitizers in medicine and catalysts in technology. The use of appropriate peripheral substituents allows the modulation of their physicochemical properties. Phthalocyanine and sulfanyl porphyrazine octa-substituted with 4-(butoxycarbonyl)phenyloxy moieties were synthesized and characterized using UV-Vis and NMR spectroscopy, as well as mass spectrometry. A comparison of porphyrazine with phthalocyanine aza-porphyrinoids revealed that phthalocyanine macrocycle exhibits higher singlet oxygen generation quantum yields, reaching the value of 0.29 in DMF. After both macrocycles had been deposited on titanium dioxide nanoparticles P25, the cytotoxicities and photocytotoxicities of the prepared materials were studied using a Microtox® acute toxicity test. The highest cytotoxicity occurred after irradiation with a red light for the material composed of phthalocyanine deposited on titania nanoparticles.

Abstract
Herein, we report results of the studies relating to the fabrication of yttria-doped zirconia-reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite (nYZR) based biosensing platform for detection of salivary CYFRA-21-1 biomarker. The nYZR nanocomposite was hydrothermally synthesized and amine-functionalized using 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTES). This functionalized nanocomposite (APTES/nYZR) was electrophoretically deposited (45 V; 3 min) onto pre-hydrolyzed indium tin oxide (ITO) coated glass substrate (APTES/nYZR/ITO) followed by biofunctionalization via covalent immobilization of the anti-CYFRA-21-1 antibodies (anti-CYFRA-21-1/APTES/nYZR/ITO). The synthesized nanomaterial and the fabricated electrodes were characterized to investigate crystal structure, morphology and electrochemical properties via X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The fabricated biosensing electrode (BSA/anti-CYFRA-21-1/APTES/nYZR/ITO) has an operating shelf life of 56 days and can be used to detect salivary CYFRA-21-1 biomarker concentration as low as 7.2 pg mL-1 with wide linear detection range of 0.01-50 ng mL-1. This work opens new opportunities to explore the electrochemical behavior of nanostructured yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) and its composites at room temperature and its utility in developing biosensors and other electrochemical devices.

Abstract
The advent of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in the therapeutic protocols of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) sparked a flame of hope for patients to finally reach to the milestone of the complete remission. However, by the different mutations bypassing the effectiveness of Imatinib, a powerful impetus has emerged to bring more efficient agents into the field of treatment. The results of the present study declared that the companionship of our synthesized ZnO/CNT@Fe3O4 nanocomposite with Imatinib was able to more efficiently decrease the survival of CML-derived K562 cells probably through inducing reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent apoptosis. We also found a superior cytotoxicity in the presence of a well-known autophagy inhibitor, indicating that the apoptotic effect of this treatment was probably enhanced through the suppression of autophagy. Investigating the molecular mechanisms involved in the growth-suppressive effect of ZnO/CNT@Fe3O4-plus-Imatinib clarified that the up-regulation of SIRT1 ceased the progression of the cell cycle, foremost by increasing the expression of p21 and p27 cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors. Notably, we reported for the first time that either direct or indirect suppression of c-Myc resulted in an enhanced anti-leukemic effect; suggesting that the overexpression of c-Myc could play a contributory role in attenuating the efficacy of ZnO/CNT@Fe3O4-plus-Imatinib in K562. Given to the established efficacy of ZnO/CNT@Fe3O4 in CML cells, our preclinical results suggest that the application of this nanocomposite is an appealing strategy to boost the anti-leukemic effect of TKIs, which should be further studied in combination with other anti-cancer agents either in hematologic malignancies or solid tumors.

Abstract
In the present work, an electrochemical immunosensor has been fabricated for the detection of amyloid beta peptide (βA1--42) based on a gold nanoparticle/nickel ferrite decorated graphene oxide-chitosan nanocomposite (Au/NiFe2O4@GO-Ch) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) as an effective sensing platform. βA1-42 has been analyzed as a potential biomarker for its application in Alzheimer's disease monitoring. The combination of highly conducting Au and NiFe2O4 nanoparticles on two-dimensional GO nanosheets provides an excellent platform for sensitive and selective sensing applications. A miniaturized Au/NiFe2O4@GO-Ch/GCE immunosensor was prepared by immobilization of βA antibody onto Au//NiFe2O4@GO-Ch/GCE via carbodiimide coupling. Various characterization techniques were utilized in the study to estimate the morphological and electronic attributes of the components used to fabricate the immunosensor. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) was performed to study the amperometric response of the developed immunosensor as a function of βA1-42 concentration. The DPV results confirmed that the immunosensor detected βA1-42 selectively and demonstrated a wide linear range from 1 pg mL-1 to 1 ng mL-1 and a detection limit of 3.0 pg mL-1. Furthermore, the immunosensor also indicated its clinical viability by detecting βA1-42 in cerebrospinal fluid.

Abstract
Cylindrical fullerenes (or carbon nanotubes (CNTs)) have been extensively investigated as potential sensor platforms due to effective and practical manipulation of their physical and chemical properties by functionalization/doping with chemical groups suitable for novel nanocarrier systems. CNTs play a significant role in biomedical applications due to rapid development of synthetic methods, structural integration, surface area-controlled heteroatom doping, and electrical conductivity. This review article comprehensively summarized recent trends in biomedical science and technologies utilizing a promising nanomaterial of CNTs in disease diagnosis and therapeutics, based on their biocompatibility and significance in drug delivery, implants, and bio imaging. Biocompatibility of CNTs is essential for designing effective and practical electronic applications in the biomedical field particularly due to their growing potential in the delivery of anticancer agents. Furthermore, functionalized CNTs have been shown to exhibit advanced electrochemical properties, responsible for functioning of numerous oxidase and dehydrogenase based amperometric biosensors. Finally, faster signal transduction by CNTs allows charge transfer between underlying electrode and redox centres of biomolecules (enzymes).

Abstract
Dopamine (DA) is a critical neurotransmitter and has been known to be liable for several neurological diseases. Hence, its sensitive and selective detection is essential for the early diagnosis of diseases related to abnormal levels of DA. In this study, we reported novel molybdenum nanoparticles self-supported functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (Mo NPs@f-MWCNTs) based core-shell hybrid nanomaterial with an average diameter of 40–45 nm was found to be the best for electrochemical DA detection. The Mo NPs@f-MWCNTs hybrid material possesses tremendous superiority in the DA sensing is mainly due to the large surface area and numerous electroactive sites. The morphological and structural characteristics of the as-synthesized hybrid nanomaterial were examined by XRD, Raman, FE-SEM, HR-TEM, EDX. The electrochemical characteristics and catalytic behavior of the as-prepared Mo NPs@f-MWCNTs modified screen-printed carbon electrode for the determination of DA were systematically investigated via electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and amperometry. The results demonstrate that the developed DA biosensor exhibit a low detection limit of 1.26 nM, excellent linear response of 0.01 µM to 1609 µM with good sensitivity of 4.925 µA µM−1 cm−2. We proposed outstanding appreciable stability sensor was expressed to the real-time detection of DA in the real sample analysis of rat brain, human blood serum, and DA hydrochloride injection.

Abstract
An electrochemical biosensor was developed to determine formaldehyde (HCHO) adulteration commonly found in food. The current responses of various electrodes based on multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and synthesized nanocomposite (CNT-Fe3O4) were measured using cyclic voltammetry. The nanocomposite based biosensor shows comparatively high sensitivity (527 µA mg/L-1 cm-2), low detection limit (0.05 mg/L) in linear detection range 0.05-0.5 mg/L for formaldehyde detection using formaldehyde dehydrogenase (FDH) enzyme. In real sample analysis, the low obtained RSD values (less than 1.79) and good recovery rates (more than 90%) signify an efficient and precise sensor for the selective quantification of formaldehyde in orange juice. The developed biosensor has future implications for determining formaldehyde adulteration in citrus fruit juices and other liquid foods in agri-food chain to further resolve global food safety concerns, control unethical business practices of adulteration and reduce the widespread food borne illness outbreaks.

Abstract
We demonstrate an ultrasonication-assisted synthesis without polar solvent of CsPbBr3 and Cs4PbBr6 perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) and their reversible transformation. The as-prepared CsPbBr3 PNCs and Cs4PbBr6 PNCs exhibit different optical properties that depend on their morphology, size, and structure. The photoluminescence (PL) emission and quantum yield (QY) of the CsPbBr3 PNCs can be tuned by changing the ultrasound power, radiation time, and the height of the vibrating spear. The optimized CsPbBr3 PNCs show a good stability and high PL QY of up to 85%. In addition, the phase transformation between CsPbBr3 PNCs and Cs4PbBr6 PNCs can be obtained through varying the amount of oleylamine (OAm) and water. The mechanism of this transformation between the CsPbBr3 PNCs and Cs4PbBr6 PNCs and their morphology change are studied, involving ions equilibrium, anisotropic growth kinetics, and CsBr-stripping process.

Abstract
When certain polymers are heat-treated beyond their degradation temperature in the absence of oxygen, they pass through a semi-solid phase, followed by the loss of heteroatoms and the formation of a solid carbon material composed of a three-dimensional graphenic network, known as glassy (or glass-like) carbon. The thermochemical decomposition of polymers, or generally of any organic material, is defined as pyrolysis. Glassy carbon is used in various large-scale industrial applications and has proven its versatility in miniaturized devices. In this article, micro and nano-scale glassy carbon devices manufactured by (i) pyrolysis of specialized pre-patterned polymers and (ii) direct machining or etching of glassy carbon, with their respective applications, are reviewed. The prospects of the use of glassy carbon in the next-generation devices based on the material's history and development, distinct features compared to other elemental carbon forms, and some large-scale processes that paved the way to the state-of-the-art, are evaluated. Selected support techniques such as the methods used for surface modification, and major characterization tools are briefly discussed. Barring historical aspects, this review mainly covers the advances in glassy carbon device research from the last five years (2013⁻2018). The goal is to provide a common platform to carbon material scientists, micro/nanomanufacturing experts, and microsystem engineers to stimulate glassy carbon device research.
