A bibliometric analysis of graphene in acetaminophen detection: Current status, development, and future directions

Acetaminophen is a widely used analgesic throughout the world. Detection of acetaminophen has particular value in pharmacy and clinics. Electrochemical sensors assembled with advanced materials are an effective method for the rapid detection of acetaminophen. Graphene-based carbon nanomaterials have been extensively investigated for potential analytical applications in the last decade. In this article, we selected papers containing both graphene and acetaminophen. Bibliometrics was used to analyze the relationships and trends among these papers. The results show that the topic has grown at a high rate since 2009. Among them, the detection of acetaminophen by an electrochemical sensor based on graphene is the most important direction. Graphene has moved from being a primary sensing material to a substrate for immobilization of other active ingredients. In addition, the degradation of acetaminophen using graphene-modified electrodes is also an important direction. We analyzed the research history and current status of this topic through bibliometrics. Authors, institutions, countries, and key literature were discussed. We also proposed perspectives for this topic.

Current strategies with sensing technologies to eliminate stress cardiomyopathy

Stress cardiomyopathy refers weakening of heart muscle due to the continuous stress. Generally, the severe status of stress cardiomyopathy has been revealed after damaging the muscles and measured by the physical changes in the heart system. To overcome this issue, biosensor can be used, which could eliminate the late identification stress cardiomyopathy. With biosensors, different stress markers such as epinephrine, dopamine, catecholamine, α-amylase, norepinephrine, serotonin and cortisol have been identified by a wide range of developments. These biosensors are available from laboratory to industry at the ranges of nano to macrodevices. To merge with the identification of stress cardiomyopathy, the above strategies might be utilized properly and can aid to reduce the stress-related problems. This overview gleaned the currently available biosensing methods and the associated biomarkers at various stages of the developments and implementations of stress cardiomyopathy.
