Abstract
The main goal of our study is to demonstrate the applicability of the PPy-cryogel-modified electrodes for electrochemical detection of DNA. First, a polysaccharide-based cryogel was synthesized. This cryogel was then used as a template for chemical polypyrrole synthesis. This prepared polysaccharide-based conductive cryogel was used for electrochemical biosensing on DNA. Carrageenan (CG) and sodium alginate (SA) polysaccharides, which stand out as biocompatible materials, were used in cryogel synthesis. Electron transfer was accelerated by polypyrrole (PPy) synthesized in cryogel networks. A 2B pencil graphite electrode with a diameter of 2.00 mm was used as a working electrode. The prepared polysaccharide solution was dropped onto a working electrode as a support material to improve the immobilization capacity of biomolecules and frozen to complete the cryogelation step. PPy synthesis was performed on the electrodes whose cryogelation process was completed. In addition, the structures of cryogels synthesized on the electrode surface were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Surface characterization of the modified electrodes was performed by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) analysis. Electrochemical determination of fish sperm DNA (fsDNA) was performed using a PPy-cryogel-modified electrode. The use of a porous 3D cryogel intermediate material enhanced the signal by providing a large surface area for the synthesis of PPy and increasing the biomolecule immobilization capacity. The detection limit was 0.98 µg mL-1 in the fsDNA concentration range 2.5-20 µg mL-1. The sensitivity of the DNA biosensor was estimated to 14.8 µA mM-1 cm-2. The stability of the biosensor under certain storage conditions was examined and observed to remain 66.95% up to 45 days.

Abstract
Antibiotics are widely used as fungicides because of their antibacterial and bactericidal effects. However, it is necessary to control their dosage. If the amount of antbiotics is too much, it cannot be completely metabolized and absorbed, will pollute the environment, and have a great impact on human health. Many antibiotics usually left in factory or aquaculture wastewater pollute the environment, so it is vital to detect the content of antibiotics in wastewater. This article summarizes several common methods of antibiotic detection and pretreatment steps. The detection methods of antibiotics in wastewater mainly include immunoassay, instrumental analysis method, and sensor. Studies have shown that immunoassay can detect deficient concentrations of antibiotics, but it is affected by external factors leading to errors. The detection speed of the instrumental analysis method is fast, but the repeatability is poor, the price is high, and the operation is complicated. The sensor is a method that is currently increasingly studied, including electrochemical sensors, optical sensors, biosensors, photoelectrochemical sensors, and surface plasmon resonance sensors. It has the advantages of fast detection speed, high accuracy, and strong sensitivity. However, the reproducibility and stability of the sensor are poor. At present, there is no method that can comprehensively integrate the advantages. This paper aims to review the enrichment and detection methods of antibiotics in wastewater from 2020 to the present. It also aims to provide some ideas for future research directions in this field.

Abstract
Fluoroquinolones (FQs) are a class of broad-spectrum antimicrobial agents that are used to treat variety of infectious diseases. This class of antibiotics was being used for patients exhibiting early symptoms of a human respiratory disease known as the COVID-19 virus. As a result, this outbreak causes an increase in drug-resistant strains and environmental pollution, both of which pose serious threats to biota and human health. Thus, to ensure public health and prevent antimicrobial resistance, it is crucial to develop effective detection methods for FQs determination in water bodies even at trace levels. Due to their characteristics like specificity, selectivity, sensitivity, and low detection limits, electrochemical biosensors are promising future platforms for quick and on-site monitoring of FQs residues in a variety of samples when compared to conventional detection techniques. Despite their excellent properties, biosensor stability continues to be a problem even today. However, the integration of nanomaterials (NMs) could improve biocompatibility, stability, sensitivity, and speed of response in biosensors. This review concentrated on recent developments and contemporary methods in FQs biosensors. Furthermore, a variety of modification materials on the electrode surface are discussed. We also pay more attention to the practical applications of electrochemical biosensors for FQs detection. In addition, the existing challenges, outlook, and promising future perspectives in this field have been proposed. We hope that this review can serve as a bedrock for future researchers and provide new ideas for the development of electrochemical biosensors for antibiotics detection in the future.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has emphasized the importance and urgent need for rapid and accurate diagnostic tests for detecting and screening this infection. Our proposal was to develop a biosensor based on an ELISA immunoassay for monitoring antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 in human serum samples. The nucleocapsid protein (N protein) from SARS-CoV-2 was employed as a specific receptor for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid immunoglobulin G. N protein was immobilized on the surface of a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) modified with carboxylated graphene (CG). The percentage of IgG-SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid present was quantified using a secondary antibody labeled with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) (anti-IgG-HRP) catalyzed using 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) mediator by chronoamperometry. A linear response was obtained in the range of 1:1000-1:200 v/v in phosphate buffer solution (PBS), and the detection limit calculated was 1:4947 v/v. The chronoamperometric method showed electrical signals directly proportional to antibody concentrations due to antigen-antibody (Ag-Ab) specific and stable binding reaction.

Abstract
In the last few decades, pharmaceuticals, credited with saving millions of lives, have emerged as a new class of environmental contaminants. These compounds can have both chronic and acute harmful effects on aquatic ecosystems and consequently on human health. Therefore, there is an urgent need for the development of extremely sensitive, portable, and low-cost devices to perform analysis. In the present review article, recent reports on the application of various voltammetric and photo-electrochemical techniques using different electrode materials for the determination of antibiotic Ciprofloxacin (CIPRO) are reported. This review provides an insight into direct and indirect electrochemical approaches as well as the photoelectrochemical methods used for the determination of CIPRO. Emphasis is put on the applications of unmodified and modified carbon-based electrodes considering the modifier, supporting electrolytes, analytical method, concentration range, limit of detection, and real matrices. Carbon-based electrodes are the most used materials attributed to their commercial availability, reduced cost, high chemical stability, and non-toxicity.

Abstract
After the COVID-19 pandemic started all over the world, great importance was placed on the development of sensitive and selective bioanalytical assays for the rapid detection of the highly pathogenic SARS-CoV-2 virus causing COVID-19 disease. In this present work, an impedimetric immunosensor was developed and applied for rapid, reliable, sensitive and selective detection of the SARS-CoV-2 S1 protein. To detect the SARS-CoV-2 virus, targeting of the spike S1 protein was achieved herein by using S1 protein-specific capture antibody (Cab-S1) immobilized screen-printed electrode (SPE) in combination with the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) technique. With the impedimetric immunosensor, the detection limit for S1 protein in buffer medium was found to be 0.23 ng/mL (equal to 23.92 amol in 8 µL sample) in the linear concentration range of S1 protein from 0.5 to 10 ng/mL. In the artificial saliva medium, it was found to be 0.09 ng/mL (equals to 9.36 amol in 8 µL sample) in the linear concentration range of S1 protein between 0.1 and 1 ng/mL. The selectivity of the impedimetric immunosensor toward S1 protein was tested against influenza hemagglutinin antigen (HA) in the buffer medium as well as in artificial saliva.

Abstract
Emerging contaminants, including pharmaceutical compounds, are receiving research attention as a result of their widespread presence in effluents and wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). The antibiotic ciprofloxacin (CIP) is extensively employed to treat infections in animal and human medicine. Both CIP and its metabolites are common contaminants found in WWTPs. In this study, a label-free ultrasensitive U-bent optical fiber-based immunosensor for the determination of CIP in wastewater samples was developed using the properties of the conducting polymer polyaniline (PANI). The anti-CIP immunoglobulin G (IgG) was deposited on a silica optical fiber surface previously functionalized with PANI. Scanning electron microscopy and micro-Raman spectroscopy were used to investigate the surface of the immunosensor. The analysis of CIP in wastewater was performed without the use of an organic solvent or sample preparation steps, with only the sample dilution in saline buffer (pH = 7.4). The linear range for CIP was from 0.01 to 10,000 ng L-1. The detection limit was 3.30 × 10-3 ng L-1 and the quantification limit was 0.01 ng L-1. The immunosensor provided a high average recovery of 91% after spiking wastewater samples with CIP at a concentration of 9,100 ng L-1. The method was applied in triplicate to wastewater samples from Quebec (Canada), obtaining concentrations of 549 and 267 ng L-1. A comparison with a reference method showed no significant difference (t-test at 95% confidence). The new technique developed is selective, allowing a quantitative analysis of CIP in wastewater.
