Abstract
Polyaniline (PANI), a nanostructured conducting polymer, has shown significant potential in optical and bioelectrochemical devices. However, its performance and stability on various substrates are hindered by weak adhesion to the surface. In this study, a strongly adherent polyaniline conducting polymer layer with a thickness of five nanometers was electrografted onto an initiating monolayer on gold and tin-doped indium oxide substrates. These electrografted monolayers consist of vertically oriented fully oxidized-protonated (pernigraniline salt) and deprotonated (pernigraniline base) forms of polyaniline. The monolayer exhibits pH-dependent colour changes and it is suitable for enzyme compatibility. In light of these findings, we have developed and characterized an electrochemical glucose biosensor based on the monolayer of polyaniline on a gold electrode. The biosensor utilizes glucose oxidase as the biorecognition element for the selective detection of glucose concentrations in real blood plasma samples.

Abstract
The enzymatic glucose sensors as modified by MXene-dPIn and MWCNT-dPIn on a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) were investigated. Herein, MXene was molybdenum carbide (Mo3C2) which has never been utilized and reported for glucose sensors. The biopolymer type to support the enzyme immobilization was examined and compared between chitosan (CHI) and κ-carrageenan (κC). MWCNT-dPIn obviously showed a larger electroactive surface area, lower charge transfer resistance and higher redox current than Mo3C2-dPIn, indicating that MWCNT-dPIn is superior to Mo3C2-dPIn. For the chitosan-based sensors, the sensitivity value of CHI-GOD/Mo3C2-dPIn is 3.53 μA mM-1 cm-2 in the linear range of 2.5-10 mM with the calculated LOD of 1.57 mM. The sensitivity value of CHI-GOD/MWCNT-dPIn is 18.85 μA mM-1 cm-2 in the linear range of 0.5-25 mM with the calculated LOD of 0.115 mM. For the κ-carrageenan based sensors, κC-GOD/MWCNT-dPIn exhibits the sensitivity of 15.80 μA mM-1 cm-2 and the widest linear range from 0.1 to 50 mM with the calculated LOD of 0.03 mM. The presently fabricated sensors exhibit excellent reproducibility, good selectivity, high stability, and disposal use. The fabricated glucose sensors are potential as practical glucose sensors as the detectable glucose ranges well cover the glucose levels found in blood, urine, and sweat for both healthy people and diabetic patients.

Abstract
Regioselective arylation of carbazoles is reported using dual palladium-photoredox catalysis. Controlled monoarylation and diarylation of symmetrical and unsymmetrical carbazoles were achieved under mild reaction conditions with a broad substrate scope and functional group tolerance. Steric and electronic control the regioselectivity of the arylation of unsymmetrical carbazoles. Late-stage functionalization of a caprofen drug derivative and large-scale synthesis of mono- and di-arylated carbazoles were demonstrated to showcase the synthetic versatility of the method. Finally, we also showcased the synthesis of hyellazole analogues (a marine alkaloid) in a short route using our strategy.

Abstract
Long-term stability of enzymes in organic solvents is one of the most challenging problems in modern biotechnology and chemical industries. However, the resistance of enzymes to organic solvents is not very well understood so far. Herein, the effects of apolar, chlorinated, and polar organic solvents on the activity and structure of glucose oxidase from Aspergillus niger were systemically investigated using spectrophotometric activity assay of this enzyme and absorption and chiroptical spectroscopy. Molecular dynamics simulations and correlation of the activity with properties of the organic solvents were employed to understand the effects of organic solvents on the enzyme. The experimental and theoretical results showed that apolar solvents reduce the enzyme activity because they facilitate its aggregation through inter-enzymatic salt bridges. Moreover, polar solvents strongly coordinate with amino acid residues in the glucose binding pocket and prevent binding of the substrates. We found that this enzyme is stable in pure apolar and chlorinated solvents and these solvents can be used for the functionalization of its residues. This work provides an in depth understanding at the molecular level of the impact of various pure organic solvents on the structure and dynamics of glucose oxidase and the regulation of its catalytic activity.

Abstract
Doped-polyindole (dPIn) mixed with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were coated on a screen-printed electrode to improve the electroactive surface area and current response of the chronoamperometric enzymatic glucose sensor. Glucose oxidase mixed with chitosan (CHI-GOx) was immobilized on the electrode. (3-Aminopropyl) triethoxysilane (APTES) was used as a linker between the CHI-GOx and the dPIn. The current response of the glucose sensor increased with increasing glucose concentration according to a power law relation. The sensitivity of the CHI-GOx/APTES/dPIn was 55.7 μA mM−1 cm−2 with an LOD (limit of detection) of 0.01 mM, where the detectable glucose concentration range was 0.01–50 mM. The sensitivity of the CHI-GOx/APTES/1.5%MWCNT-dPIn was 182.9 μA mM−1 cm−2 with an LOD of 0.01 mM, where the detectable glucose concentration range was 0.01–100 mM. The detectable concentration ranges of glucose well cover the glucose concentrations in urine and blood. The fabricated enzymatic glucose sensors showed high stability during a storage period of four weeks and high selectivity relative to other interferences. Moreover, the sensor was successfully demonstrated as a continuous or step-wise glucose monitoring device. The preparation method employed here was facile and suitable for large quantity production. The glucose sensor fabricated here, consisting of the three-electrode cell of SPCE, were simple to use for glucose detection. Thus, it is promising to use as a prototype for real glucose monitoring for diabetic patients in the future. The enzymatic glucose sensor based on a dPIn and dPIn/MWCNT modified screen-printed carbon electrode with a facile method possessed good glucose response. The detectable glucose concentration range covers well the glucose concentrations in urine and blood.![]()

Abstract
Enzymatic biosensors based on glucose oxidase has been proven to be one of the effective strategies for the detection of glucose and contributed to health improvements. Therefore, research and debates to date are ongoing in an attempt to find the most effective way to detect this analyte using this enzyme as the recognition center. The 3rd generation biosensors using direct electron transfer (DET) type enzymes are a great way towards practical devices. In this work, we developed a simple method for the functionalization of glucose oxidase with redoxable ferrocene groups in chloroform. The enzyme retained its activity after storage in this organic solvent and after the functionalization procedures. This enzyme functionalization strategy was employed to develop the biosensing monolayer-based platforms for the detection of glucose utilizing the quasi-DET mechanism. As a result of an electrochemical regeneration of the catalytic center, the formation of harmful H2O2 is minimized during enzymatic electrocatalysis.

Abstract
Typical protein biosensors employ chemical or genetic labeling of the protein, thus introducing an extraneous molecule to the wild-type parent protein, often changing the overall structure and properties of the protein. While these labeling methods have proven successful in many cases, they also have a series of disadvantages associated with their preparation and function. An alternative route for labeling proteins is the incorporation of unnatural amino acid (UAA) analogues, capable of acting as a label, into the structure of a protein. Such an approach, while changing the local microenvironment, poses less of a burden on the overall structure of the protein. L-DOPA is an analog of phenylalanine and contains a catechol moiety that participates in a quasi-reversible, two-electron redox process, thus making it suitable as an electrochemical label/reporter. The periplasmic glucose/galactose binding protein (GBP) was chosen to demonstrate this detection principle. Upon glucose binding, GBP undergoes a significant conformational change that is manifested as a change in the electrochemistry of L-DOPA. The electroactive GBP was immobilized onto gold nanoparticle-modified, polymerized caffeic acid, screen-printed carbon electrodes (GBP-LDOPA/AuNP/PCA/SPCE) for the purpose of direct measurement of glucose levels and serves as a proof-of-concept of the use of electrochemically-active unnatural amino acids as the label. The resulting reagentless GBP biosensors exhibited a highly selective and sensitive binding affinity for glucose in the micromolar range, laying the foundation for a new biosensing methodology based on global incorporation of an electroactive amino acid into the protein's primary sequence for highly selective electrochemical detection of compounds of interest.

Abstract
Rapid glucose testing is very important in the care of diabetes. Monitoring of blood glucose is the most critical indicator of disease control in diabetic patients. The invention and popularity of electrochemical sensors have made glucose detection fast and inexpensive. The first generation of glucose sensors had limitations in terms of sensitivity and selectivity. In order to overcome these problems, scientists have used a range of new materials to produce new glucose electrochemical sensors with higher sensitivity, selectivity and lower cost. A variety of different electrochemical sensors including enzymatic electrochemical sensors and enzyme-free electrochemical sensors have been extensively investigated. We discussed the development process of electrochemical glucose sensors in this review. We focused on describing the benefits of carbon materials in nanomaterials, specially graphene for sensors. In addition, we discussed the limitations of the sensors and challenges in future research.

Abstract
Biosensors are the core elements for obtaining significant physiological information from living organisms. To better sense life information, flexible biosensors and implantable sensors that are highly compatible with organisms are favored by researchers. Moreover, materials for preparing a new generation of flexible sensors have also received attention. Liquid metal is a liquid-state metallic material with a low melting point at or around room temperature. Owing to its high electrical conductivity, low toxicity, and superior fluidity, liquid metal is emerging as a highly desirable candidate in biosensors. This paper is dedicated to reviewing state-of-the-art applications in biosensors that are expounded from seven aspects, including pressure sensor, strain sensor, gas sensor, temperature sensor, electrical sensor, optical sensor, and multifunctional sensor, respectively. The fundamental scientific and technological challenges lying behind these recommendations are outlined. Finally, the perspective of liquid metal-based biosensors is present, which stimulates the upcoming design of biosensors.

Abstract
Conducting polymers are an important class of functional materials that has been widely applied to fabricate electrochemical biosensors, because of their interesting and tunable chemical, electrical, and structural properties. Conducting polymers can also be designed through chemical grafting of functional groups, nanostructured, or associated with other functional materials such as nanoparticles to provide tremendous improvements in sensitivity, selectivity, stability and reproducibility of the biosensor’s response to a variety of bioanalytes. Such biosensors are expected to play a growing and significant role in delivering the diagnostic information and therapy monitoring since they have advantages including their low cost and low detection limit. Therefore, this article starts with the description of electroanalytical methods (potentiometry, amperometry, conductometry, voltammetry, impedometry) used in electrochemical biosensors, and continues with a review of the recent advances in the application of conducting polymers in the recognition of bioanalytes leading to the development of enzyme based biosensors, immunosensors, DNA biosensors, and whole-cell biosensors.
