RESUMO

We improved the thermal dissociation cavity attenuated phase shift spectroscopy (TD-CAPS) instrument to measure atmospheric total peroxy nitrates (PNs) and organic nitrates (ONs) continuously under the condition of high NOx. In TD-CAPS, PNs and ONs are dissociated in heated quartz tubes to form NO2, and the NO2 concentration is measured by cavity attenuated phase shift spectroscopy (CAPS). The original TD-CAPS system overestimates PN and ON concentrations in the presence of high NO concentrations. Our laboratory experiments and numerical simulations showed that the main cause of the overestimation was NO oxidation to NO2 by peroxy radicals generated in the heated quartz tubes. In the improved system, NO was converted to NO2 by adding excess O3 after the quartz tubes so that CAPS detected NOx (NO and NO2) instead of NO2. The uncertainty of the improved system was less than 20% with ∼15 parts per billion by volume (ppbv) NO and ∼80 ppbv NO2. The estimated detection limit (3σ) was 0.018 ppbv with an integration time of 2 min in the presence of 64 ppbv NO2. The improved system was tested for measurement of PNs and ONs in an urban area, and the results indicated that interference from NO was successfully suppressed.

RESUMO

Drug detection in biological solutions is essential in studying the pharmacokinetics of the body. Electrochemical detection is an accurate and rapid method, but measuring multiple drugs that react at similar potentials is challenging. Herein, we developed an electrochemical sensor using a boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode modified with a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) to provide specificity in drug sensing. The MIP is a polymer material designed to recognize and capture template molecules, enabling the selective detection of target molecules. In this study, we selected the anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) as the template molecule. In the electrochemical measurements using an unmodified BDD, the DOX reduction was observed at approximately -0.5 V (vs Ag/AgCl). Other drugs, i.e., mitomycin C or clonazepam (CZP), also underwent a reduction reaction at a similar potential to that of DOX, when using the unmodified BDD, which rendered the accurate quantification of DOX in a mixture challenging. Similar measurements conducted in PBS using the MIP-BDD only resulted in a DOX reduction current, with no reduction reaction observed in the presence of mitomycin C and CZP. These results suggest that the MIP, whose template molecule is DOX, inhibits the reduction of other drugs on the electrode surface. Selective DOX measurement using the MIP-BDD was also possible in human plasma, and the respective limits of detection of DOX in PBS and human plasma were 32.10 and 16.61 nM. The MIP-BDD was durable for use in six repeated measurements, and MIP-BDD may be applicable as an electrochemical sensor for application in therapeutic drug monitoring.

RESUMO

This study focused on the electrochemical properties of tetrazolium salts to develop a simple method for evaluating viable bacterial counts, which are indicators of drug susceptibility. Considering that the oxidized form of tetrazolium, which has excellent cell membrane permeability, changes to the insoluble reduced form formazan inside the cell, the number of viable cells was estimated based on the reduction current of the tetrazolium remaining in the bacterial suspension. Dissolved oxygen is an important component of bacterial activity. However, it interferes with the electrochemical response of tetrazolium. We estimated the number of viable bacteria in the suspension based on potential-selective current responses that were not affected by dissolved oxygen. Based on solubility, cell membrane permeability, and characteristic electrochemical properties of the tetrazolium salt 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium, we developed a method for rapidly measuring viable bacteria within one-fifth of the time required by conventional colorimetric methods for drug susceptibility testing.

RESUMO

Building a high-performance sensing platform is the key to developing sensitive sensors. Herein, a highly sensitive self-powered electrochemical sensor (SPES) was constructed using a WO3·H2O film as the cathode prepared by a hydrothermal method and Zn as the anode, and it could be applied to sensitive detection of microcystin (MC-RR). The WO3·H2O film with a larger specific surface area could boost the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), which could achieve signal amplification and significantly increase the sensitivity of the sensors. Under the optimal conditions, there was a good linear relationship between the increased electrical power density and the logarithm of MC-RR concentration with a detection limit of 1.31 × 10-15 M (S/N = 3). This method had good anti-interference ability and stability when applied to the determination of MC-RR content in actual samples, which could boost the potential application of electrochemical sensors in the field of environmental monitoring.

RESUMO

To address the challenges posed by signal capacity limitations and the reliance of sensing methods on single analytical information, this study developed an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) and colorimetric dual-mode sensing platform for the precise detection of 4-chloroethcathinone (4-CEC) in water environments. Firstly, the accurate alignment of the reflection wavelength of appropriately sized silica inverse opal photonic crystals (SIOPCs) with the ECL emission wavelength of luminescent metal-organic frameworks (PCN-224) has been achieved via diameter modulation. This innovative design, which cleverly utilized the band-edge effect, improved the luminous intensity of the ECL sensor, leading to a significant boost in analytical performance. Secondly, the establishment of a colorimetric detection method for confirming the presence of 4-CEC in samples through visual observation of color changes was achieved by employing an aptamer-based dye displacement reaction, utilizing differential binding affinities between the aptamer and both the sulforhodamine B (SRB) and 4-CEC. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the dual-mode sensor demonstrated ECL detection of limits (LOD) of 2.6 × 10-13 g/L and colorimetric LOD of 6.5 ng/L for 4-CEC. These findings highlighted the tremendous potential of developing streamlined and efficient dual-signal readout platforms using ECL aptamer sensors for the precise determination of other Synthetic cathinones (SCs) in water environments.

RESUMO

Organic metallic nanohybrids (NHs), in which many small metal nanoparticles are encapsulated within a conductive polymer matrix, are useful as sensitive electrochemical labels because the constituents produce characteristic oxidation current responses. Gold NHs, consisting of gold nanoparticles and poly(m-toluidine), and copper NHs, consisting of copper nanoparticles and polyaniline, did not interfere with each other in terms of the electrochemical signals obtained on the same electrode. Antibodies were introduced into these NHs to function as electrochemical labels for targeting specific bacteria. Electrochemical measurements using screen-printed electrodes dry-fixed with NH-labeled bacterial cells enabled the estimation of bacterial species and number within minutes, based on the distinct current response of the labels. Our proposed method achieved simultaneous detection of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus in a real sample. These NHs will be powerful tools as electrochemical labels and are expected to be useful for rapid testing in food and drug-related manufacturing sites.

RESUMO

Signal amplification is a powerful approach to increasing the detection sensitivity of electrochemiluminescence (ECL). Here, we developed synergistic multieffect catalytic strategies based on CuCo2O4 nanorod combination of Ag NPs as coreaction accelerators to fabricate an efficient covalent organic framework (PTCA-COF)-based ternary ECL biosensor. Concretely, the high redox reversibility of Co3+/Co2+ and Cu2+/Cu+ would constantly promote the decomposition of S2O82- for ECL emission. Meanwhile, the introduction of Ag NPs with excellent electrocatalytic activity further realized multiple amplification of the ECL signal. Furthermore, the good hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) ability of Ag@CuCo2O4 nanorods could accelerate the proton transmission rate of the system to amplify ECL behavior. In the presence of the target synthetic cathinone 4-chloroethcathinone (4-CEC) as the quenching ECL signal-response probe, the Ferrocene (Fc)-labeled aptamer folded into the conformationally limited stem-loop structure, bringing Fc near the ECL luminophore and resulting in quenched ECL emission. The quenching effect was connected with target-induced aptamer conformational changes and consequently reflected the target concentration. Under optimum conditions, the proposed biosensor realized a highly sensitive assay for 4-CEC with a large dynamic range from 1.0 × 10-12 to 1.0 × 10-6 g/L and a detection limit as low as 2.5 × 10-13 g/L. This study integrated multiple amplification strategies for efficient ECL enhancement, which provided a novel approach to constructing highly bioactive and sensitive sensors.

RESUMO

As is common knowledge, a strong electrochemiluminescence (ECL) signal is required to ensure the high sensitivity of trace target detection. Here, a dual signal amplification strategy by integrating of perovskite and photonic crystal was fabricated for quantitative synthetic cannabinoids (AB-PINACA) detection based on Zr-connected PTCA and TCPP (PTCA-TCPP) with excellent ECL performance as luminophores. On the one hand, the co-reaction accelerator perovskite (LaCoO3) improved the effective electroactive area of the electrode and promoted the decomposition of K2S2O8, resulting in a stronger ECL signal value. On the other hand, polystyrene inverse opal (PIOPCs) formed after the swelling of PS microspheres not only taken advantage of the light scattering effect and excellent catalytic property of photonic crystals to amplify the ECL signal, but also could be used as a binder to fix LaCoO3 and PTCA-TCPP on the electrode surface to generate unprecedented ECL response and stable ECL signals. Subsequently, the detection substance AB-PINACA was loaded on the electrode surface via the amide bond with the luminophores PTCA-TCPP, thus quenching the ECL signal, so as to realize the sensitive detection of synthetic cannabinoids. Under the optimal conditions, the proposed sensor achieved highly sensitive AB-PINACA detection with a dynamic range from 1.0 × 10-12 to 1.0 × 10-3 g/L and the detection limit was 1.1 × 10-13 g/L, which had great application potential in the detection of synthetic cannabinoids.

RESUMO

This study focused on the electrochemical properties of tetrazolium salts to develop a simple method for evaluating viable bacterial counts, which are indicators of hygiene control at food and pharmaceutical manufacturing sites. Given that the oxidized form of 3-(4,5-di-methylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT), which has excellent cell membrane permeability, changes to the insoluble reduced form of formazan inside the cell, the number of viable cells was estimated by focusing on the reduction current of MTT remaining in the suspension. Dissolved oxygen is an important substance for bacterial activity; however, it interferes with the electrochemical response of MTT. We investigated the electrochemical properties of MTT to obtain a potential-selective current response that was not affected by dissolved oxygen. Real-time observation of viable bacteria in suspension revealed that uptake of MTT into bacteria was completed within 10 min, including the lag period. In addition, we observed that the current response depends on viable cell density regardless of the bacterial species present. Our method enables a rapid estimation of the number of viable bacteria, making it possible to confirm the safety of food products before they are shipped from the factory and thereby prevent food poisoning.

RESUMO

The development of innovative and efficient strategy is of paramount importance for near-infrared (NIR) electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensing, which can substantially promote ECL detection in a wide range of situations. Herein, the inner filter effect (IFE) strategy was designed to construct an ultrasensitive NIR ECL biosensor based on the well-matched AgBr nanocrystals (NCs) decorated nitrogen-doped Ti3C2 MXene nanocomposites (AgBr-N-Ti3C2) and hydrated defective tungsten oxide nanosheets (dWO3•H2O). Specifically, the AgBr-N-Ti3C2 nanocomposites displayed extremely effective NIR ECL emission because N-doping could accelerate electron transfer and boost the red-shift of the ECL spectrum. The nonmetallic plasmon dWO3•H2O was used as an absorber due to its facile tuning of the spectra overlap and higher molar extinction coefficients. Time-resolved emission decay curves proved that the decreased ECL intensity was ascribed to the IFE-based steady quenching mechanism. With the support of tetracycline (TC) aptamer and the complementary DNA chain, the fabricated NIR ECL-IFE biosensor performed a wide linear range of 100 nM âˆ¼ 10 fM with a low detection limit of 2.2 fM (S/N = 3), and it exhibited excellent stability, sensitivity, and reproducibility, so as to be applied to real samples. This strategy opens a new avenue to constructing an efficient NIR ECL-IFE system and shows excellent practical potential in actual sample analysis.

RESUMO

In this work, a super-sensitive electrochemiluminescence (ECL) aptamer sensor was constructed using a multiple signal amplification strategy to realize ultra-sensitive detection of di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP). The incorporation of a highly efficient electrocatalytic metal-organic framework (NH2-Zr-MOF) and graphdiyne (GDY) composite has significantly enhanced the overall electrochemically active surface area, facilitating electron transfer during the entire electrochemical reaction process, and the large number of pores in graphdiyne and NH2-Zr-MOF limited a series of redox reactions within a certain range. This resulted in the generation of a greater number of SO4˙- radicals, thereby boosting the ECL intensity of the GDY in the K2S2O8 system. To increase the performance of the sensor even further, sodium ascorbate (NaAsc) as an accelerator was added to the co-reactant system. Additionally, nitrogen micro-nano bubbles with higher stability and stronger mass transfer have been introduced into the ECL system for the first time. Based on these, the aptamer as the recognition element realized the ultra-sensitive detection of DEHP in the linear range of 1.0 × 10-12 to 1.0 × 10-4 mg mL-1 with the limit of detection (LOD) of 2.43 × 10-13 mg mL-1. In summary, we have utilized the electrocatalytic activity of the porous MOF and the reducing capability of sodium ascorbate to enhance the ECL emission of GDY, which has been successfully applied to the detection of DEHP in water samples.

RESUMO

Self-powered electrochemical sensors, which can function without external electricity, are incredibly valuable in the realm of sensing. However, most of the present testing methods are normally confined to high environmental requirements, restricted lighting conditions, and temperature differences. Herein, an innovative self-powered electrochemical sensor was successfully developed based on hydrovoltaic effect coupling with capacitor amplification. Due to the combined merits from the two-dimensional transition metal carbides and nitrides (MXene)-polyaniline (PANI) with high surface potential and good hydrophilicity, and the capacitor amplification strategy, the device could harvest electric energy from water evaporation and displayed a high short circuit current value. Under optimal conditions, the proposed self-powered electrochemical sensor presented excellent sensitivity and high specificity for enrofloxacin (ENR) detection in the concentration range from 1 fM to 1 nM with a detection limit of 0.585 fM. Such a proposed sensor also has the advantages of environmental friendliness and ease of use, which is an ideal choice for accurately and precisely detecting ENR in real samples. The mode of such electrochemical detection outlined in this technical note implements a breakthrough in designing self-powered electrochemical sensors, providing a rational basis for development of a diversified sensing platform.

RESUMO

Exploring efficient strategy for high-efficiency photoelectric conversion is quite important to design sensitive self-powered photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensing platform. This work designed a high performance self-powered PEC sensing platform by the integration of piezoelectric effect with localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect based on ZnO-WO3-x heterostructures. Due to the fluid eddy induced piezoelectric effect by magnetic stirring, the piezoelectric semiconductor ZnO nanorod arrays (ZnO NRs) can facilitate the transfer of electrons and holes by generating piezoelectric potentials under external forces, thereby contributing to the performance of self-powered PEC platforms. Such working mechanism of the piezoelectric effect was studied by using the COMSOL software. Moreover, the introduction of defect engineered WO3 (WO3-x) can further broaden the light absorption and promote the charge transfer owing to the nonmetallic surface plasmon resonance effect. Remarkably, due to the synergizing piezoelectric and plasmonic effect, the photocurrent and maximum power output of ZnO-WO3-x heterostructures were enhanced by 3.3-fold and 5.5-fold than that of bare ZnO, respectively. After the immobilization of the enrofloxacin (ENR) aptamer, the self-powered sensor demonstrated an excellent linearity (1 × 10-14 M to 1 × 10-9 M) with a low detection limit of 1.8 × 10-15 M (S/N = 3). This work undoubtedly holds great promise to provide the innovative inspiration for the formation of high-performance self-powered sensing platform, which opens up a new horizon of potential in food safety and environmental monitoring.

RESUMO

Currently, studies on electrochemiluminescence (ECL) mainly focused on the single emission of luminophores while those on multi-color ECL were rarely reported. Here, a bi-mesoporous composite of the metal-organic framework (MOF)/covalent-organic framework (COF) with strong and stable dual-color ECL was prepared to construct a novel ECL sensor for sensitive detecting targets. A PTCA-COF with excellent ECL performance was loaded with a great amount of another ECL emitter Cu3(HHTP)2. Remarkably, the integrated composite had both ECL properties of PTCA-COF at 520 nm and Cu3(HHTP)2 at 600 nm wavelengths. Furthermore, Cu3(HHTP)2 with good electron transfer ability can greatly enhance the electrical conductivity and promote electrochemical activation. Thus, the simultaneous enhanced two-color ECL intensity and the catalytic properties of the conductive MOF exerted a dual enhancement effect on the ECL signal of the composite. Significantly, diclazepam can not only be adsorbed well on the multi-stage porous structure MOF/COF composite by π-π interactions but also selectively quench the ECL signal of the PTCA-COF, realizing the sensitive detection. The ECL sensor showed a wide detection range from 1.0 × 10-13 to 1.0 × 10-8 g/L, and the limit of detection (LOD) was as low as 2.6 × 10-14 g/L (S/N = 3). The proposed ECL sensor preparation method was simple and sensitive, providing a new perspective for the potential application of multi-color ECL in the sensing field.

RESUMO

Herein, a well-matched energy donor-acceptor pair strategy was designed to construct highly efficient NIR ECL-RET system. In detail, an ECL amplification system consisting of SnS2 quantum dots decorated Ti3C2 MXene nanocomposites (SnS2 QDs-Ti3C2) as the energy donor were developed via a one-pot method, and the nanocomposites exhibited highly efficient NIR ECL emission due to the surface-defect effect generated by the oxygen-containing functional groups in MXene. Nonmetallic plasmon hydrated defective tungsten oxide nanosheets (dWO3•H2O) were utilized as energy acceptors because of its strong surface plasmon resonance effect in Vis-NIR absorption range. Compared with non-defective tungsten oxide hydrate nanosheets (WO3•H2O), the overlapping area between ECL spectrum of SnS2 QDs-Ti3C2 and UV-vis spectrum of dWO3•H2O was increased by 2.1 times, and the results showed that more efficient quenching effect was obtained. As a proof of concept, tetracycline (TCN) aptamer and its complementary chain were served as a bridge to connect the energy donor and acceptor, achieving the successful construction of NIR ECL-RET aptasensor. The as-fabricated ECL sensing platform exhibited a low detection limit of 6.2 fM (S/N = 3) within a wide linear range from 10 fM to 10 µM. Besides, the NIR ECL-RET aptasensor also showed excellent stability, reproducibility and selectivity, providing a promising tool to detect TCN in real samples. This strategy offered a universal and effective method in constructing highly efficient NIR ECL-RET system for developing rapid, sensitive and accurate biological detection platform.

RESUMO

Current single signal electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensors are susceptible to false positive or false negative phenomena due to experimental conditions. Therefore, sensors with "self-checking" function are attracting democratic attention. In quick succession, a highly sensitive single-cathode dual ECL signal aptasensor with self-checking function to improve the shortcomings mentioned above was designed. This aptasensor used In-based metal-organic framework (MIL-68) as load and stabilizer to effectively attenuate the aggregation-induced quenching (ACQ) effect of porphyrin derivatives (Sn-TCPP) while improve ECL stability. The introduction of cooperative-binding split-aptamers" (CBSAs) aptamers increased the specificity of the aptasensor and its unique double-binding domains detection accelerated the detection efficiency. When analyzing 3,4-methylenedioxypyrovalerone (MDPV), we could calculate two concentrations based on the strength of ECL 1 and ECL 2. If the concentrations are the same, the result would be obtained; if not, it should be retested. Depending on the above operation, the results achieve self-check. It was found that the designed aptasensor could quantify the concentration of MDPV between 1.0 × 10-12 g/L and 1.0 × 10-6 g/L with the limit of detection (LOD) of 1.4 × 10-13 g/L and 2.0 × 10-13 g/L, respectively (3 σ/slope). This study not only improves the detection technology of MDPV, but also explores the dual-signal detection of porphyrin for the first time and enriches the definition of self-checking sensor.

RESUMO

Herein, a novel near-infrared (NIR) self-powered photoelectrochemical platform was constructed based on nonmetallic plasmon Ti3C2 MXene coupled with sulphur vacancy engineered Bi2S3. The continuous photoelectron injection from Bi2S3 to Ti3C2 MXene induced a stable SPR effect and high photoelectric conversion efficiency, which is beneficial for developing high-performance NIR self-powered biosensors. As a proof of concept, a sensitive NIR self-powered sensor was constructed by conjunction with an aptamer using Microcystin-RR as a model analyte, which is one of the most common and toxic hepatotoxins released by cyanobacteria.

RESUMO

Screening sufficient Fermi level differentiation of photoeletrodes is significantly meaningful for developing high-performance self-powered photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensors. In this work, a dual-photoelectrode self-powered system was fabricated for sensitive detection of Microcystin-RR (MC-RR) by integration of the TiO2/S-doped Ti3C2 photoanode and MoS2/S-doped Ti3C2 photocathode. The introduction of S-doped Ti3C2 nanosheets synergistically integrated with semiconductors (TiO2 and MoS2) could generate the unique Schottky junctions, which could adjust the Fermi energy levels, facilitate the separation of electron-hole pairs and broaden light absorption, leading to high photoelectric conversion efficiency. The electric output of self-powered sensing systems was increased by the substantial inherent bias between the Fermi energy levels of various photoelectrodes and the complementary functions of Schottky junctions, which provided a necessary foundation for the development of sensitive sensors. After the immobilization of the MC-RR aptamer, a novel signal-off dual-photoelectrode self-powered sensor was constructed for sensitive detection of MC-RR based on steric hindrance effect. Moreover, the as-fabricated sensor exhibited prominent analytical performance including wide detection range (10-16 M to 10-9 M), low detection limit (3.4 × 10-17 M), good selectivity, stability and reproducibility, so as to be successfully applied to real sample analysis. The designing ideas of the proposed S-doped Ti3C2 MXene-based Schottky junctions can provide a foothold for the innovative construction of dual-photoelectrode internal-driven self-powered sensing platforms with satisfactory performance.

RESUMO

A ternary composite material with Au, Co-based organic frameworks (ZIF-67) and perylene derivatives (PTCD-cys) has been synthesized for identification of synthetic cannabinoids. Through contact with Au-S, Au-ZIF-67 increased electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensitivity and stability and efficiently catalyzed the ECL of PTCD-cys. Compared with the ECL response of PTCD-cys monomer, the ECL signal value of the composite material was significantly increased, and the onset potential of Au-ZIF-67/PTCD-cys favorably shifted more than that of PTCD-cys/GCE. When the target cannabinoid molecule RCS-4 appeared, Au-ZIF-67 captured and immobilized it on the sensor surface by adsorption to achieve target-induced self-enrichment of RCS-4. Under optimal conditions, the ECL sensor was found to be linearly related to the logarithm of the RCS-4 concentration ranging from 3.1 × 10-15 to 3.1 × 10-9 mol/L with a detection limit (LOD) of 6.0 × 10-16 mol/L (S/N = 3). The approach had the advantages of being simple to use, having a high sensitivity, a wide detection range, and good stability, making it a novel platform for RSC-4 detection in public health safety monitoring.

RESUMO

This paper describes a simple strategy to identify bacteria using the optical properties of the nanohybrid structures (NHs) of polymer-coated metal nanoparticles (NPs). NHs, in which many small NPs are encapsulated in polyaniline particles, are useful optical labels because they produce strong scattered light. The light-scattering characteristics of NHs are strongly dependent on the constituent metal elements of NPs. Gold NHs (AuNHs), silver NHs (AgNHs), and copper NHs (CuNHs) produce white, reddish, and bluish scattered light, respectively. Moreover, unlike NPs, the color of the scattered light does not change even when NHs are aggregated. Introducing an antibody into NHs induces antigen-specific binding to cells, enabling the identification of bacteria based on light scattering. Multiple bacterial species adsorbed on the slide can be identified within a single field of view under a dark field microscope based on the color of the scattered light. Therefore, it is a useful development for safety risk assessments at manufacturing sites, such as those for foods, beverages, and drugs, and environmental surveys that require rapid detection of multiple bacteria.
