Abstract
The determination of thyroid hormones has practical clinical significance for the diagnosis of hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism diseases. Considering this aspect, a wide range of analytical methods for the detection of analytes, including immunoassay, chemiluminescence, mass spectroscopy and high-performance liquid chromatography, among others, has been developed. This type of analysis provides feasible results. Nevertheless, it requires qualified staff, special facilities and is time-consuming. For this reason, this paper relies on the fabrication of an electrochemical device developed with inkjet printing technology for the free detection of Thyroxine (T4). To manufacture our electrochemical device, several aspects were considered from the use of materials that amplify electrical signals, to finding a supramolecular scaffold that possess affinity towards the target analyte and the need of preconcentrating the analyte on the electrode's surface. For this task, printed devices were modified with a hybrid nanomaterial consisting of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) tuned with Au nanoparticles (Au-NPs) and an entrapment agent and different thiolated cyclodextrins (x-CD-SH) as carrying agents. Analytes were preconcentrated via supramolecular chemistry due to the formation of an inclusion complex between the cyclodextrin and hormones. Morphological and electrochemical characterization of the final device was carried out to ensure the proper workability of the electrode, achieving excellent response, sensitivity and limit of detection (LOD).

Abstract
Hypothyroidism is a global concern that needs to be monitored, controlled and treated. Thyroxine is the most common biomarker for the diagnosis of hypothyroidism and a therapeutic hormonal replacement for hypothyroid patients. People suffering from hypothyroidism need to monitor their levels of thyroxine to avoid health complications. Diagnostic labs are not always easily accessible and, hence, point-of-care biosensors can become a useful alternative. Several studies have shown high sensitivity, selectivity and stability but there is no commercial point-of-care biosensing device available. This paper presents the critical aspects, including the need for thyroxine biosensors, the physicochemical properties of the thyroxine molecule, nanomaterials and bioreceptors used for sensing. The challenges and prospects of thyroxine biosensors are also discussed.

Abstract
Unique physical and chemical properties arising from a polymer topology recently draw significant attention. In this study, cyclic poly(ethylene glycol) (c-PEG) was found to significantly interact with bovine serum albumin (BSA), suggested by nuclear magnetic resonance, dynamic light scattering, and fluorescence spectroscopy. On the other hand, linear HO-PEG-OH and MeO-PEG-OMe showed no affinity. Furthermore, a complex of gold nanoparticles and c-PEG (AuNPs/c-PEG) attracted BSA to form aggregates, and the red color of the AuNPs dispersion evidently disappeared, whereas ones with linear PEG or without PEG did not demonstrate such a phenomenon. The interactions among BSA, AuNPs, and PEG were investigated by changing the incubation time and concentration of the components by using UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy.

Abstract
In this work, a colorimetric approach for the detection of ascorbic acid (AA) and thyroxine (TH) was developed by synthesizing cost-effective silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) decorated with epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and CTAB. EGCG is the major bioactive chemical constituent that played a significant role in this study. The environment around the nanoparticle (NP) was controlled by adding CTAB surfactants. The synthesized NPs were characterized by different advanced techniques including XRD, XPS, SEM, and TEM. UV-visible spectra were thoroughly analyzed for sensing of AA and TH and the colour change of the solution can be visually monitored. The change in the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) properties was used as an asset for the detection of AA and TH. A good linear relationship was obtained in both the sensing schemes with a limit of detection (LoD) of 0.67 μM and 0.33 μM for AA and TH respectively. Furthermore, the nanoparticles (NP) were implemented for real-sample analysis (pharmaceutical tablets). A cost-effective filter paper strip-based method coupled with smartphone scanning sensing was developed for the detection of AA. The interaction of AA and TH with the probe was depicted by a density functional theory (DFT) analysis. The synthesized NPs show tremendous selectivity towards AA and TH and excellent potential for practical applications.

Abstract
Nowadays, the targeted imaging probe and drug delivery systems are the novel breakthrough area in the nanomedicine and treatment of various diseases. Conjugation of monoclonal antibodies and their fragments on nanoparticles (NPs) have a remarkable impact on personalized medicine, such that it provides specific internalization and accumulation in the tumor microenvironment. Targeted imaging and early detection of cancer is presumably the strong participant to a diminution in mortality and recurrence of cancer disease that will be the next generation of the imaging device in clinical application. These intelligent delivery systems can deliver therapeutic agents that target cancerous tissue with minimal side effects and a wide therapeutic window. Overall, the linkage between the antibody and NPs is a critical subject and requires precise design and development. The attachment of antibody nanoconjugates (Ab-NCs) on the antigen surface shouldn't affect the function of the antibody-antigen binding. Also, the stability of the antibody nanoconjugates in blood circulation is concerned to avoid the release of drug in non-targeted regions and the possible for specific toxicity while disposal to the desired site. Here, we update the recent progress of Ab-NCs to improve early detection and cancer therapy.
