Abstract
Neuromorphic computing is a potential approach for imitating massive parallel processing capabilities of a bio-synapse. To date, memristors have emerged as the most appropriate device for designing artificial synapses for this purpose due to their excellent analog switching capacities with high endurance and retention. However, to build an operational neuromorphic platform capable of processing high-density information, memristive synapses with nanoscale footprint are important, albeit with device size scaled down, retaining analog plasticity and low power requirement often become a challenge. This paper demonstrates site-selective self-assembly of Au nanoparticles on a patterned TiOx layer formed as a result of ion-induced self-organization, resulting in site-specific resistive switching and emulation of bio-synaptic behavior (e.g., potentiation, depression, spike rate-dependent and spike timing-dependent plasticity, paired pulse facilitation, and post tetanic potentiation) at nanoscale. The use of local probe-based methods enables nanoscale probing on the anisotropic films. With the help of various microscopic and spectroscopic analytical tools, the observed results are attributed to defect migration and self-assembly of implanted Au atoms on self-organized TiOx surfaces. By leveraging the site-selective evolution of gold-nanostructures, the functionalized TiOx surface holds significant potential in a multitude of fields for developing cutting-edge neuromorphic computing platforms and Au-based biosensors with high-density integration.

Heliyon 2024; 10:e24346. [PMID: 38293452 PMCID: PMC10826182 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e24346] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2023] [Revised: 12/06/2023] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/01/2024] Open
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
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease with only late-stage detection; thus, diagnosis is made when it is no longer possible to treat the disease, only its symptoms. Consequently, this often leads to caregivers who are the patient's relatives, which adversely impacts the workforce along with severely diminishing the quality of life for all involved. It is, therefore, highly desirable to develop a fast, effective and reliable sensor to enable early-stage detection in an attempt to reverse disease progression. This research validates the detection of amyloid-beta 42 (Aβ42) using a Silicon Carbide (SiC) electrode, a fact that is unprecedented in the literature. Aβ42 is considered a reliable biomarker for AD detection, as reported in previous studies. To validate the detection with a SiC-based electrochemical sensor, a gold (Au) electrode-based electrochemical sensor was used as a control. The same cleaning, functionalization and Aβ1-28 antibody immobilization steps were used on both electrodes. Sensor validation was carried out by means of Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) aiming to detect an 0.5 µg·mL-1 Aβ42 concentration in 0.1 M buffer solution as a proof of concept. A repeatable peak directly related to the presence of Aβ42 was observed, indicating that a fast SiC-based electrochemical sensor was constructed and may prove to be a useful approach for the early detection of AD.

Abstract
Nanomaterials have been extensively explored in developing sensors due to their unique properties, contributing to the development of reliable sensor designs with improved sensitivity and specificity. Herein, we propose the construction of a fluorescent/electrochemical dual-mode self-powered biosensor for advanced biosensing using DNA-templated silver nanoclusters (AgNCs@DNA). AgNC@DNA, due to its small size, exhibits advantageous characteristics as an optical probe. We investigated the sensing efficacy of AgNCs@DNA as a fluorescent probe for glucose detection. Fluorescence emitted by AgNCs@DNA served as the readout signal as a response to more H2O2 being generated by glucose oxidase for increasing glucose levels. The second readout signal of this dual-mode biosensor was utilized via the electrochemical route, where AgNCs served as charge mediators between the glucose oxidase (GOx) enzyme and carbon working electrode during the oxidation process of glucose catalyzed by GOx. The developed biosensor features low-level limits of detection (LODs), ~23 μM for optical and ~29 μM for electrochemical readout, which are much lower than the typical glucose concentrations found in body fluids, including blood, urine, tears, and sweat. The low LODs, simultaneous utilization of different readout strategies, and self-powered design demonstrated in this study open new prospects for developing next-generation biosensor devices.

Abstract
We demonstrated potential features of gold nanoparticle bipyramid (AuNB) for an electrochemical biosensor. The facile synthesis method and controllable shape and size of the AuNB are achieved through the optimization of cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) surfactant over citric acid (CA) ratio determining the control of typically spherical Au seed size and its transition into a penta-twinned crystal structure. We observe that the optimized ratio of CTAC and CA facilitates flocculation control in which Au seeds with size as tiny as ∼14.8 nm could be attained and finally transformed into AuNB structures with an average length of ∼55 nm with high reproducibility. To improve the electrochemical sensing performance of a screen-printed carbon electrode, surface modification with AuNB via distinctive linking procedures effectively enhanced the electroactive surface area by 40%. Carried out for the detection of dopamine, a neurotransmitter frequently linked to the risk of Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and Huntington's diseases, the AuNB decorated-carbon electrode shows outstanding electrocatalytic activity that improves sensing performance, including high sensitivity, low detection limit, wide dynamic range, high selectivity against different analytes, such as ascorbic acid, uric acid and urea, and excellent reproducibility.

Chronoampermetric detection of enzymatic glucose sensor based on doped polyindole/MWCNT composites modified onto screen-printed carbon electrode as portable sensing device for diabetes. RSC Adv 2022; 12:28505-28518. [PMID: 36320500 PMCID: PMC9535471 DOI: 10.1039/d2ra04947c] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2022] [Accepted: 09/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
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.![]()
