Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) metal-organic framework (MOF) nanosheets with large surface area, ultrathin thickness, and highly accessible active sites have attracted great research attention. Developing efficient approaches to realize the controllable synthesis of well-defined 2D MOFs with a specific composition and morphology is critical. However, it is still a significant challenge to construct thin and uniform 2D MOF nanosheets and resolve the reagglomeration as well as poor stability of target 2D MOF products. Here, an "in situ exfoliation growth" strategy is proposed, where a one-step synthetic process can realize the successful fabrication of PBA/MIL-53(NiFe)/NF nanosheets on the surface of nickel foam (NF) via in situ conversion and exfoliation growth strategies. The PBA/MIL-53(NiFe)/NF nanosheets combine the individual advantages of MOFs, Prussian blue analogues (PBAs), and 2D materials. As expected, the resulting PBA/MIL-53(NiFe)/NF as a glucose electrode exhibits an extremely high sensitivity of 25.74 mA mM-1 cm-2 in a very wide concentration range of 180 nM to 4.8 μM. The present exciting work provides a simple and effective strategy for the construction of high-performance nonenzymatic glucose electrochemical biosensors.

CTAB-Modulated Electroplating of Copper Micropillar Arrays for Non-Enzymatic Glucose Sensing with Improved Sensitivity. SENSORS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 24:1603. [PMID: 38475139 DOI: 10.3390/s24051603] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2023] [Revised: 01/05/2024] [Accepted: 01/07/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024]
Abstract
Micropillar array electrodes represent a promising avenue for enhancing detection sensitivity and response current. However, existing methods for depositing electrode materials on micropillar arrays often result in uneven distribution, with the thin sidewall layer being less conductive and prone to corrosion. In addressing this issue, this study introduces electroplating to enhance the copper layer on the sidewall of micropillar array electrodes. These electrodes, fabricated through standard microelectronics processes and electroplating, are proposed for non-enzymatic glucose detection, with the copper layer deposited via electroplating significantly enhancing sensitivity. Initially, the impact of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) concentration as an inhibitor on the surface morphology and sensitivity of the plated layer was investigated. It was discovered that CTAB could decrease surface roughness, hinder the development of large and coarse grains, generate small particles, and boost sensitivity. Compared to the uncoated electrode and plating without CTAB, sensitivity was elevated by a factor of 1.66 and 1.62, respectively. Subsequently, the alterations in plating morphology and detection performance within a range of 0.3 ASD to 3 ASD were examined. Sensitivity demonstrated a tendency to increase initially and then decrease. The electrode plated at 0.75 ASD achieved a maximum sensitivity of 3314 μA·mM-1·cm-2 and a detection limit of 15.9 μM. Furthermore, a potential mechanism explaining the impact of different morphology on detection performance due to CTAB and current density was discussed. It was believed that the presented effective strategy to enhance the sensitivity of micropillar array electrodes for glucose detection would promote the related biomedical detection applications.

Abstract
The rising prevalence of diabetes has led to an increased focus on real-time glucose monitoring. Wearable glucose sensor patches allow noninvasive, real-time monitoring, reducing patient discomfort compared to invasive sensors. However, most existing glucose sensor patches rely on complex and contaminating metal vapor deposition technologies, which pose limitations in practical production. In this study, we propose a novel approach for preparing graphite/multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT)/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) using a high-viscosity ink, which can be easily obtained through simple mechanical stirring. To create intricate patterns and enable printing on curved substrates, we employed a 3D printer equipped with an infrared laser ranging system. The ink served as a working electrode, and we developed a three-electrode system patch with a concentric circle structure. Subsequently, the working electrode underwent enzymatic modification with glucose dehydrogenase with flavin adenine dinucleotide (GDH-FAD) using a polymer embedding method. The resulting wearable glucose sensor exhibited a sensitivity of 2.42 μA mM-1 and a linear detection range of 1-12 mM. In addition, the glucose sensor has excellent anti-interference capability and demonstrates good repeatability in simulated real human wear scenarios, which meets the requirements for accurate human detection. These findings provide valuable insights into the development of human health monitoring technologies.

Growth of nanostructured Cu 3Al alloy films by magnetron sputtering for non-enzymatic glucose-sensing applications. RSC Adv 2023; 13:14641-14650. [PMID: 37215753 PMCID: PMC10198095 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra02076b] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2023] [Accepted: 05/01/2023] [Indexed: 05/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Enzymatic glucose sensors usually exhibit excellent sensitivity and selectivity but suffer from poor stability due to the negative influence of temperature and humidity on enzyme molecules. As compared to enzymatic glucose sensors, non-enzymatic counterparts are generally more stable but are facing challenges in concurrently improving both sensitivity and selectivity of a trace amount of glucose molecules in physiological samples such as saliva and sweat. Here, a novel non-enzymatic glucose sensor based on nanostructured Cu3Al alloy films has been fabricated by a facile magnetron-sputtering followed by controllable electrochemical etching approach. Since the metal Al is more reductive than Cu, by selectively etching aluminum in the Cu3Al alloys, nanostructured alloy films were obtained with increased surface contact area and electrocatalytic active sites which resulted in enhanced glucose-sensing performance. Thus, non-enzymatic glucose sensors based on nanostructured Cu3Al alloy films not only exhibited a high sensitivity of 1680 μA mM-1 cm-2 but also achieved a reliable selectivity to glucose without interference by other species in physiological samples. Consequently, this study sparked the potential for the development of non-enzymatic biosensors for the continuous monitoring of blood glucose levels with high sensitivity and impressive selectivity for glucose molecules.

SENSORS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 23:s23094396. [PMID: 37177600 PMCID: PMC10181677 DOI: 10.3390/s23094396] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2023] [Revised: 04/27/2023] [Accepted: 04/28/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023]
Abstract
The present work developed an electrochemical genosensor for the detection of virulence outer membrane protein A (ompA, tDNA) gene of Cronobacter sakazakii (C. sakazakii) by exploiting the excellent glucose-oxidase-mimicking activity of copper Metal-organic frameworks (Cu-MOF) doped with gold nanoparticle (AuNPs). The signal nanotags of signal probes (sDNA) that biofunctionalized AuNPs@Cu-MOF (sDNA-AuNPs@Cu-MOF) were designed using an Au-S bond. The biosensor was prepared by immobilization capture probes (cDNA) onto an electrodeposited AuNPs-modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE). AuNPs@Cu-MOF was introduced onto the surface of the GCE via a hybridization reaction between cDNA and tDNA, as well as tDNA and sDNA. Due to the enhanced oxidase-mimicking activity of AuNPs@Cu-MOF to glucose, the biosensor gave a linear range of 1.0 × 10-15 to 1.0 × 10-9 mol L-1 to tDNA with a detection limit (LOD) of 0.42 fmol L-1 under optimized conditions using differential pulse voltammetry measurement (DPV). It can be applied in the direct detection of ompA gene segments in total DNA extracts from C. sakazakii with a broad linear range of 5.4-5.4 × 105 CFU mL-1 and a LOD of 0.35 CFU mL-1. The biosensor showed good selectivity, fabricating reproducibility and storage stability, and can be used for the detection of ompA gene segments in real samples with recovery between 87.5% and 107.3%.

Abstract
The nanocomposite coatings composed of carbon nanotubes and various forms of copper were prepared in the two-step process. Firstly, carbon nanotubes were coated on stainless steel substrate using electrophoretic deposition at constant current. Then, the process of electrochemical deposition using copper(II) sulphate solutions was performed under high overpotential conditions. The modification of the copper(II) cations concentration in the solution and the deposition time provided the formation of various forms of crystals. The samples and their cross-sections were observed and examined using scanning electron microscope equipped with electron dispersive spectroscopy system. The analysis of chemical composition revealed that in addition to the pure copper crystals, the crystals characterized by the presence of copper and oxygen were formed. Therefore, Raman spectroscopy was applied to determine the unknown stoichiometry of this copper oxide. The point and in-depth analysis identified copper(I) oxide in the form of different size crystals depending on the concentration of the copper(II) sulphate solution. To confirm these findings, grazing incidence X-ray diffraction measurements were also performed. the combination of the applied methods has provided the detailed description of the preparation of the nanocomposite coatings with the proposed mechanism of copper(I) oxide formation.

Abstract
Constructing high-performance enzyme-free biosensors for detecting glucose is essential to preliminary diabetes diagnosis. Here, copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO@Cu2O NPs) were anchored in porous nitrogen-doped reduced graphene oxide (PNrGO) to construct CuO@Cu2O/PNrGO/GCE hybrid electrode for sensitive detection of glucose. Benefiting from the remarkable synergistic effects between the multiple high activation sites of CuO@Cu2O NPs and the dramatic properties of PNrGO with excellent conductivity and large surface area with many accessible pores, the hybrid electrode possesses outstanding glucose sensing performance that is far superior to those of pristine CuO@Cu2O electrode. The as-fabricated enzyme-free glucose biosensor displays prominent glucose sensitivity of 2,906.07 μA mM-1 cm-2, extremely low limit of detection of 0.13 μM, and wide linear detection of 3 μM-6.772 mM. In addition, excellent reproducibility, favorable long-term stability, and distinguished selectivity are obtained in the glucose detection. Importantly, this study provides promising results for continuous improvement of non-enzyme sensing applications.

Abstract
Sensitive and facile detection of analytes is crucial in various fields such as agriculture production, food safety, clinical diagnosis and therapy, and environmental monitoring. However, the synergy of complicated sample pretreatment and detection is an urgent challenge. By integrating the inherent porosity, processability and flexibility of films and the diversified merits of nanomaterials, nanomaterial-based films have evolved as preferred candidates to meet the above challenge. Recent years have witnessed the flourishment of films-based detection technologies due to their unique porous structures and integrated physical/chemical merits, which favors the separation/collection and detection of analytes in a rapid, efficient and facile way. In particular, films based on nanomaterials consisting of 0D metal-organic framework particles, 1D nanofibers and carbon nanotubes, and 2D graphene and analogs have drawn increasing attention due to incorporating new properties from nanomaterials. This paper summarizes the progress of the fabrication of emerging films based on nanomaterials and their detection applications in recent five years, focusing on typical electrochemical and optical methods. Some new interesting applications, such as point-of-care testing, wearable devices and detection chips, are proposed and emphasized. This review will provide insights into the integration and processability of films based on nanomaterials, thus stimulate further contributions towards films based on nanomaterials for high-performance analytical-chemistry-related applications.

Abstract
Introducing oxygen-vacancy into the surface of the non-enzymatic sensor is supposed to be an effective way to improve inherently low catalytic activity and specificity of non-enzymatic sensors. In this work, CuO/C was synthesized at different temperatures using metal-organic frameworks as sacrificial templates to receive additional content of oxygen-vacancy. The product with the highest oxygen vacancy was found at 400 °C (named CuO/C-400 °C), which increased catalytically active sites and enhanced the charge-transfer efficiency. The sensing performance was afterward explored by amperometry under an optimal applied potential at 0.5 V (vs. SCE), presenting a broad detection range from 5.0 µM to 25.325 mM (R2 = 0.9998) with a sensitivity of 244.71 µA mM- 1 cm- 2, and a detection limit of 1 µM. Furthermore, the reliability and selectivity of CuO/C-400 °C sensors were extensively explored in the presence of artificial serum/saliva samples with gradient glucose concentrations. The human blood samples were also detected with high recoveries compared with the clinical Hexokinase method. Hence, the prepared CuO/C-400 °C sensor with a broad detection range and high selectivity can be applied for the diabetes diagnosis ex vivo without further dilution for real-time analysis in practical applications.

Abstract
Free-standing Cu/Cu2O/CuO modified by graphene was formed through two steps: Firstly, the commercial Cu foil was thermal annealed to form Cu/Cu2O/CuO; Secondly, the Cu/Cu2O/CuO was modified by graphene through electrochemical exfoliated method. The SEM, XRD, TEM and XPS have been used to characterize the morphology, the crystalline phase, and the surface composition of the hybrid electrode as-prepared. The effects of Cu and its oxides on graphene has been uncovered by the Raman results. The sensitivity of the glucose sensor in 0.1 M NaOH by using the as-prepared hybrid material reaches 3102μA·mM-1cm-2within a linear range of 0.002-2.88 mM, which is better than that of the Cu/graphene and the Cu/Cu2O/CuO prepared at the same conditions. The sensor also shows excellent anti-interference ability, good cycling stability and time stability. The advantage of the sensor is caused by the strengthened synergistic effects between the graphene and the Cu/Cu2O/CuO due to the alleviated detrimental effects of the metal on the property of the graphene through using oxides middle layer as well as the large active area that obtained. This work provides a new way to study the effects of graphene in improving the property of the metal oxide especially in using for glucose sensor.

Abstract
Excessive glucose in food poses a non-negligible threat to its inherent quality and human health, which makes it imperative to develop a highly sensitive sensor for real-time glucose detection. In this work, an integrated electrochemical glucose sensor based on a nanoflower-like MoS2@CuCo2O4 heterostructure was carefully constructed. Under optimal conditions, the as-fabricated sensor exhibited a high sensitivity of 1,303 μA mM-1 cm-2 over a wide range of 0.5-393.0 μmol/L, accompanied by a low determination limit (0.5 μmol/L) and short response time (2.1 s). The favorable sensing performance of the MoS2@CuCo2O4 nanocomposite-modified electrode in electrochemical analyses was attributed to the introduction of unique nanoflower-like heterostructure and the synergistic effects between MoS2 and CuCo2O4. Furthermore, the satisfactory applicability of this sensor in beverages was confirmed. These results demonstrate that the MoS2@CuCo2O4/GCE may be a promising platform for sensitive monitoring of glucose content in food samples.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of important porous, crystalline materials composed of metal ions (clusters) and organic ligands. Owing to the unique redox chemistry, photochemical and electrical property, and catalytic activity of Cu2+/+, copper-based MOFs (Cu-MOFs) have been recently and extensively explored in various biomedical fields. In this review, we first make a brief introduction to the synthesis of Cu-MOFs and their composites, and highlight the recent synthetic strategies of two most studied representatives, three-dimensional HKUST-1 and two-dimensional Cu-TCPP. The recent advances of Cu-MOFs in the applications of cancer treatment, bacterial inhibition, biosensing, biocatalysis, and wound healing are summarized and discussed. Furthermore, we propose a prospect of the future development of Cu-MOFs in biomedical fields and beyond.

Ultra-sensitive detection of hydrogen peroxide and levofloxacin using a dual-functional fluorescent probe. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 432:128605. [PMID: 35286934 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.128605] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2021] [Revised: 02/15/2022] [Accepted: 02/27/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Herein, a flower-shaped fluorescent probe was proposed for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and levofloxacin (LVF) sensing based on MoOx QDs@Co/Zn-MOFs with porous structure. Both MoOx QDs and Co/Zn-MOFs exhibited peroxidase-like properties, and the combination of them greatly aroused the synergistic catalytic capabilities between them. In o-Phenylenediamine (OPD)-H2O2 system, MoOx QDs@Co/Zn-MOFs efficiently catalyzed H2O2 to produce •OH and then oxidized OPD to its oxidation product (OxOPD). The OxOPD could not only emit blue fluorescence, but also inhibit the fluorescent intensity of MoOx QDs through fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). Moreover, when introducing LVF into the system, the fluorescent intensities of MoOx QDs increased along with the aggregation of themselves while that of OxOPD remained unchanged, which was explained by the joint behavior of FRET and photo-induced electron transfer (PET) instead of the conventional aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE). With these observation, the proposed probe was employed for H2O2 and LVF determination in biological samples with the limit of detection (LOD) of 32.60 pmol/L and 0.85 μmol/L, respectively, suggesting the method holds great promises for trace H2O2 and LVF monitoring in eco-environment.

Abstract
Bimetallic nanostructures composited with carbonaceous materials are the potential contenders for quantitative glucose measurement owing to their unique nanostructures, high biomimetic activity, synergistic effects, good conductivity and chemical stability. In the present work, chemical vapors deposition technique has been employed to grow 3D carbon nanocoils (CNCs) with a chiral morphology on hierarchical macroporous nickel foam (NF) to get a CNCs/NF scaffold. Following, bimetallic Cu@Ni core-shell nanoparticles (CSNPs) are effectively coupled with this scaffold through a facile solvothermal route in order to fabricate a binder-free novel Cu@Ni CSNPs/CNCs/NF hybrid nanostructure. The constructed free-standing 3D hierarchical composite electrode guarantees highly efficient glucose redox activity due to core-shell synergistic effects, enhanced electrochemical active surface area, excellent electrochemical stability, improved conductivity with better ion diffusivity and accelerated reaction kinetics. Being a non-enzymatic glucose sensor, this electrode achieves highly swift response time of 0.1 s, ultra-high sensitivity of 6905 μA mM-1 cm-2, low limit of detection of 0.03 μM along with potential selectivity and good storage stability. Moreover, the proposed sensor is also tested successfully for the determination of glucose concentration in human serum samples under good recovery ranging from 96.6 to 102.1 %. The 3D Cu@Ni CSNPs/CNCs/NF composite electrode with unprecedented catalytic performance can be utilized as an ideal biomimetic catalyst in the field of non-enzymatic glucose sensing.

Abstract
Carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) and enzymes differ significantly in terms of their physico-chemical properties—their handling and characterization require very different specialized skills. Therefore, their combination is not trivial. Numerous studies exist at the interface between these two components—especially in the area of sensing—but also involving biofuel cells, biocatalysis, and even biomedical applications including innovative therapeutic approaches and theranostics. Finally, enzymes that are capable of biodegrading CNMs have been identified, and they may play an important role in controlling the environmental fate of these structures after their use. CNMs’ widespread use has created more and more opportunities for their entry into the environment, and thus it becomes increasingly important to understand how to biodegrade them. In this concise review, we will cover the progress made in the last five years on this exciting topic, focusing on the applications, and concluding with future perspectives on research combining carbon nanomaterials and enzymes.

Abstract
More than five decades have been invested in understanding glucose biosensors. Yet, this immensely versatile field has continued to gain attention from the scientific world to better understand and diagnose diabetes. However, such extensive work done to improve glucose sensing devices has still not yielded desirable results. Drawbacks like the necessity of the invasive finger-pricking step and the lack of optimization of diagnostic interventions still need to be considered to improve the testing process of diabetic patients. To upgrade the glucose-sensing devices and reduce the number of intermediary steps during glucose measurement, fourth-generation glucose sensors (FGGS) have been introduced. These sensors, made using robust electrocatalytic copper nanostructures, improve diagnostic efficiency and cost-effectiveness. This review aims to present the essential scientific progress in copper nanostructure-based FGGS in the past 10 years (2010 to present). After a short introduction, we presented the working principles of these sensors. We then highlighted the importance of copper nanostructures as advanced electrode materials to develop reliable real-time FGGS. Finally, we cover the advantages, shortcomings, and prospects for developing highly sensitive, stable, and specific FGGS.

Abstract
Taste sensors can identify various tastes, including saltiness, bitterness, sweetness, sourness, and umami, and have been useful in the food and beverage industry. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and MXenes have recently received considerable attention for the fabrication of high-performance biosensors owing to their large surface area, high ion transfer ability, adjustable chemical structure. Notably, MOFs with large surface areas, tunable chemical structures, and high stability have been explored in various applications, whereas MXenes with good conductivity, excellent ion-transport characteristics, and ease of modification have exhibited great potential in biochemical sensing. This review first outlines the importance of taste sensors, their operation mechanism, and measuring methods in sensing utilization. Then, recent studies focusing on MOFs and MXenes for the detection of different tastes are discussed. Finally, future directions for biomimetic tongues based on MOFs and MXenes are discussed.

Abstract
Comprehensive study of the structure and bonding of disodium, dipotassium and diammonium di-o-phthalatocuprates(II) dihydrates has been undertaken. The crystal structure of ammonium o-phthalatocuprate has been determined. The identity of structures of phthalatocuprate chains in potassium and ammonium salts has been revealed. Vibrational spectra of all three compounds have been recorded, and the assignment of vibrational bands has been made. Force field calculations have shown a minor effect of outer-sphere cations (Na+, K+, NH4+) on both intraligand (C-O) and metal-ligand bond strengths. Synthesized compounds have been tested as electrochemical sensors on D-glucose, dopamine and paracetamol. Their sensitivity to analytes varied in the order of Na+ > K+ > NH4+. This effect has been explained by the more pronounced steric hindrance of copper ions in potassium and ammonium salts.

Abstract
Enzymes have demonstrated great potential in the development of advanced electroanalysis devices due to their unique recognition and catalytic properties. However, unsatisfactory stability and limited electron communication of traditional enzyme sensors seriously hinder their large-scale application. In this work, a simple and effective method is proposed to improve the stability of enzyme sensors by using sodium hyaluronate (SH) as a protective film, MXene-Ti3C2/Glucose oxidase (GOD) as the reaction layer, and chitosan (CS) /reduced graphene oxide (rGO) as the adhesion layer. Results demonstrate that the repeatability of the designed sensor increased by 73.3% after improving the adhesion between the reaction layer and the current collector and that its response ability was greatly enhanced. Moreover, the long-term stability of the electrode surface with SH protective film proved to be superior than that without protective film, which suggests that this design can effectively improve the overall performance of the enzyme biosensor. This work proposed a multi-tier synergistic approach for improving the reliability of enzyme sensors. Graphical abstract Our proposed protective and adhesion layer can greatly improve the stability of enzyme sensor and realize the rapid detection of glucose in serum sample.

Abstract
Metal-organic framework (MOF) thin films with flexible nature and prominent qualities have opened doors to new technological applications in different fields. Herein, we propose an electrochemical biosensor for the dual detection of Staphylococcus aureus based on the electrodeposition of Cu metal-organic framework (Cu-MOF) thin films. The promising sensing layer with features of good electronic conductivity and enhanced electron-transfer property can not only identify S. aureus through specific micrococcal nucleases in the supernatant but also detect the pathogen directly via aptamer recognition. The dual analysis design ensures the accuracy of this method for S. aureus detection in the range of 7-7 × 106 cfu/mL with the limits of detection of 1.9 and 5.2 cfu/mL. Moreover, the analytical method validation confirmed that the biosensor could efficiently work in complex biological samples, showing good selectivity and specificity and great potential for clinical diagnosis. More importantly, the current proposed strategy is simple and easy to implement without the need for extra signaling elements, which is convenient for timely clinical detection.

Abstract
Metal-organic framework (MOF) nanomaterials offer a wide range of promising applications due to their unique properties, including open micro- and mesopores and richness of functionalization. Herein, a facile synthesis via a solvothermal method was successfully employed to prepare amine-functionalized Cu-MOF nanospheres. Moreover, the growth and the morphology of the nanospheres were optimized by the addition of PVP and TEA. By functionalization with an amine group, the immobilization of a bioreceptor towards the detection of hepatitis B infection biomarker, i.e., hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), could be realized. The immobilization of the bioreceptor/antibody to Cu-MOF nanospheres was achieved through a covalent interaction between the carboxyl group of the antibodies and the amino-functional ligand in Cu-MOF via EDC/NHS coupling. The amine-functionalized Cu-MOF nanospheres act not only as a nanocarrier for antibody immobilization, but also as an electroactive material to generate the electrochemical signal. The electrochemical sensing performance was characterized using cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The results showed that the current response proportionally decreased with the increase of HBsAg concentration. More importantly, the sensing performance of the amine-functionalized Cu-MOF nanospheres towards HBsAg detection was found to be consistent in real human serum media. This strategy successfully resulted in wide linear range detection of HBsAg from 1 ng mL-1 to 500 ng mL-1 with a limit of detection (LOD) of 730 pg mL-1. Thus, our approach provides a facile and low-cost synthesis process of an electrochemical immunosensor and paves the way to potentially utilize MOF-based nanomaterials for clinical use.

Abstract
Developing high-performance sensors for glucose detection is extremely desirable for clinical diagnostics and life sciences. Particularly, it is greatly attractive to exploit composite materials with large surface area, doped heterojunction and non-precious metal as highly active electro-catalysts for nonenzymatic glucose sensing. Herein, we reported a N-doped carbon dodecahedron embedded with Co nanoparticles (Co@NCD) for the direct electro-oxidation of glucose and efficient nonenzymatic glucose detection. Co@NCD was synthesized by the pyrolysis of zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF). Field emission scanning electron microscope, high-resolution transmission electron microscope, powder X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and nitrogen adsorption-desorption experiments were performed to investigate Co@NCD. A well-defined dodecahedron morphology with uniform size and shape was observed. Besides, the original framework was carbonized after pyrolysis leading to a hollow and porous graphite dodecahedron containing N-doped carbon heterojunction. Moreover, Co nanoparticles were evenly distributed into the dodecahedron. With porous structure, N-doped carbon and embedded Co nanoparticles, Co@NCD displayed a notable electro-catalysis towards the direct oxidation of glucose (onset potential: 0.20 V). By using Co@NCD as electro-catalyst, an efficient nonenzymatic glucose sensor was obtained with a rapid amperometric response (within 1 s), low detection limit (0.11 μM) and broad detection range (0.2 μM-12.0 mM). In addition, remarkable selectivity, repeatability, reproducibility and long-term stability were also observed. Finally, Co@NCD prepared sensor was also successfully applied to the detection of glucose in human serum. Our results suggested that ZIF templated method could be an innovative solution for active composite catalysts in biomolecular electro-catalysis and Co@NCD prepared sensor could be a substantial preferable sensing platform for the nonenzymatic glucose detection.

Abstract
As a paper-like membrane composed of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT), buckypaper possesses high conductivity, ideal flexibility, large surface area, great thermal/chemical stability and biocompatibility, which has manifested its potential as an alternative support material. However, due to the lack of defects, high quality SWCNT synthesized by arc-discharge method is difficult to be modified with metal nanoparticles for electro-catalysis. In this paper, a novel green strategy has been developed to fabricate SWCNT buckypaper decorated with Cu/reduced graphene oxide (Cu/rGO-BP) for the first time, in which graphene oxide functions as the intermediate between SWCNT and Cu nanoparticles. The fabricated Cu/rGO-BP was applied as a flexible electrode for electrochemical glucose detection. The electrode exhibited excellent electro-catalytic activity for glucose oxidation. The sensor based on Cu/rGO-BP performed a high upper limit of linear range (25 mM), which is close to commercial glucose sensors. The proposed strategy for Cu/rGO-BP fabrication can be extended to modify buckypaper with other metal or metal oxide nanoparticles, and thus opens an innovative route to potential practical applications of flexible buckypaper in wearable bioelectronics.

Abstract
A miniaturized biosensor was developed for in situ noninvasive detection of glucose in sweat. The biosensor was composed of a pair of interdigital Pt-poly(L-lactic acid) (Pt-PLA) microelectrode arrays operating as the working and auxiliary electrode. The size of the sensor was 3.56 × 0.72 mm, while the width of the interdigital microelectrodes was 2.4 μm. The microelectrodes with densely packed coral-like Pt-PLA nanoparticles were fabricated using a multi-potential step deposition process. We investigated the influence of the Pt-PLA electrodeposition time on the morphology and electrochemical performance of the microelectrode. The optimized biosensor exhibited high electrocatalytic activity because of the synergistic effects between the Pt nanoparticles and PLA polymer matrix, including the electrooxidation of Pt on glucose, the adsorption of glucose by the PLA polymer, and the acceleration of the glucose dehydrogenation step. For glucose detection in sweat and tears, the linear concentration ranges were observed to be 0.001-33.76 μM and 33.76-1000 μM, with a low detection limit of 0.19 nM. The miniaturized biosensor exhibited high sensitivity and signal stability, and could be suitable for use in the long-term monitoring of sweat glucose levels in patients, athletes, and other subjects in various difficult environments.

Coating biopolymer nanofibers with carbon nanotubes accelerates tissue healing and bone regeneration through orchestrated cell- and tissue-regulatory responses. Acta Biomater 2020; 108:97-110. [PMID: 32165193 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2020.03.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2019] [Revised: 02/27/2020] [Accepted: 03/04/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Tailoring the surface of biomaterial scaffolds has been a key strategy to modulate the cellular interactions that are helpful for tissue healing process. In particular, nanotopological surfaces have been demonstrated to regulate diverse behaviors of stem cells, such as initial adhesion, spreading and lineage specification. Here, we tailor the surface of biopolymer nanofibers with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to create a unique bi-modal nanoscale topography (500 nm nanofiber with 25 nm nanotubes) and report the performance in modulating diverse in vivo responses including inflammation, angiogenesis, and bone regeneration. When administered to a rat subcutaneous site, the CNT-coated nanofiber exhibited significantly reduced inflammatory signs (down-regulated pro-inflammatory cytokines and macrophages gathering). Moreover, the CNT-coated nanofibers showed substantially promoted angiogenic responses, with enhanced neoblood vessel formation and angiogenic marker expression. Such stimulated tissue healing events by the CNT interfacing were evidenced in a calvarium bone defect model. The in vivo bone regeneration of the CNT- coated nanofibers was significantly accelerated, with higher bone mineral density and up-regulated osteogenic signs (OPN, OCN, BMP2) of in vivo bone forming cells. The in vitro studies using MSCs could demonstrate accelerated adhesion and osteogenic differentiation and mineralization, supporting the osteo-promoting mechanism behind the in vivo bone forming event. These findings highlight that the CNTs interfacing of biopolymer nanofibers is highly effective in reducing inflammation, promoting angiogenesis, and driving adhesion and osteogenesis of MSCs, which eventually orchestrate to accelerate tissue healing and bone regeneration process. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Here we demonstrate that the interfacing of biopolymer nanofibers with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) could modulate multiple interactions of cells and tissues that are ultimately helpful for the tissue healing and bone regeneration process. The CNT-coated scaffolds significantly reduced the pro-inflammatory signals while stimulating the angiogenic marker expressions. Furthermore, the CNT-coated scaffolds increased the bone matrix production of bone forming cells in vivo as well as accelerated the adhesion and osteogenic differentiation of MSCs in vitro. These collective findings highlight that the CNTs coated on the biopolymer nanofibers allow the creation of a promising platform for nanoscale engineering of biomaterial surface that can favor tissue healing and bone regeneration process, through a series of orchestrated events in anti-inflammation, pro-angiogenesis, and stem cell stimulation.
