Abstract
The combination of diuron (DU) and thidiazuron (TDZ) is commonly used in cotton production for its excellent adaptability to low temperatures, which may lead to increased crop and soil pollution. The simultaneous detection of DU and TDZ poses significant challenges due to their weak and overlapping signals, along with an unclear electrochemical detection mechanism for TDZ. This study developed a dual-channel multifunctional molecularly imprinted electrochemical (MMIP-EC) sensing platform by optimizing the substrate material and MIP layer for high performance. First, amino-functionalized graphene-based poly(pyrrole)-poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (NH2-rGO/PPy-PEDOT) with high conductivity was synthesized as the substrate. Subsequently, MMIPs were prepared in one step using electropolymerization by introducing chloroauric acid (HAuCl4) and bifunctional monomers (dopamine and thiophene). This method not only enhanced specific binding capacity of the MMIP layer but also amplified the signal through the synergistic effect of reduced AuNPs and bifunctional monomers. Furthermore, two independent modules (MMIP-DU and MMIP-TDZ) were integrated into a dual-channel EC platform for simultaneous transmission of DU and TDZ responses to separate windows. Finally, based on high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS) and electrochemical kinetics studies, it was speculated that the electrochemical oxidation of TDZ via the carbonylation of a secondary amine under strongly acidic conditions, followed by hydrolysis to form a carboxyl group, reveals the electrochemical oxidation mechanism of TDZ. The developed sensor exhibited excellent performance in selectivity and sensitivity, with low detection limits of 26.6 pg/mL (DU) and 39.2 pg/mL (TDZ). In conclusion, this sensing platform presents a novel perspective for the cost-effective and highly efficient detection of diverse environmental pollutants.

Abstract
Cancer antigen 72-4 (CA72-4) is an important marker of cancer detection, and accurate detection of CA72-4 is urgently required. Herein, a sandwich-type immunosensor was constructed for detection CA72-4 based on composite nanomaterial as the substrate material and trimetal nanoparticles as the nanoprobe. The composite nanomaterial rGO-TEPA/ZIF67@ZIF8/Au used as a selective bio-recognition element were modified on the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface. Meanwhile, the electrochemical nanoprobes were fabricated through the AuPdRu trimeric metal. After the target antigen 72-4 were captured, the nanoprobes were further assembled to form an antibody1 (Ab1)- antigen-antibody2 (Ab2) nanoprobes sandwich-like system on the electrode surface. Then, hybrid the substrate material rGO-TEPA/ZIF67@ZIF8/Au and the AuPdRu trimeric metal nanoprobes efficiently catalyzed the reduction of H2O2 and amplified the electrochemical signals. Cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and Chronoamperometry (I-T) methods were used to characterize the performance and detection capabilities for CA72-4 of the prepared immunosensors. The results showed that the detection limit was 1.8 × 10-5 U/mL (S/N = 3), and the linear range was 0.001-1000 U/mL. This study provides a new signal amplification strategy for electrochemical sensors and a theoretical basis for the clinical application of immunosensor to detect other tumor markers.

Abstract
Electrochemical biosensors have emerged as powerful tools for the ultrasensitive detection of lung cancer biomarkers like carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), and alpha fetoprotein (AFP). This review comprehensively discusses the progress and potential of nanocomposite-based electrochemical biosensors for early lung cancer diagnosis and prognosis. By integrating nanomaterials like graphene, metal nanoparticles, and conducting polymers, these sensors have achieved clinically relevant detection limits in the fg/mL to pg/mL range. We highlight the key role of nanomaterial functionalization in enhancing sensitivity, specificity, and antifouling properties. This review also examines challenges related to reproducibility and clinical translation, emphasizing the need for standardization of fabrication protocols and robust validation studies. With the rapid growth in understanding lung cancer biomarkers and innovations in sensor design, nanocomposite electrochemical biosensors hold immense potential for point-of-care lung cancer screening and personalized therapy guidance. Realizing this goal will require strategic collaboration among material scientists, engineers, and clinicians to address technical and practical hurdles. Overall, this work provides valuable insight for developing next-generation smart diagnostic devices to combat the high mortality of lung cancer.

Abstract
We report an ultrasensitive sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor to detect the breast cancer biomarker CA 15-3. Amine-functionalized composite of reduced graphene oxide and Fe3O4 nanoparticles (MRGO-NH2) was used as an electrochemical sensing platform material to modify the electrodes. The nanocomposite comprising Pt and Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) anchored on multiwalled carbon nanotubes (Pt-Fe3O4-MWCNTs-NH2) was utilized as a pseudoenzymatic signal-amplifying label. Compared to reduced graphene oxide, the composite MRGO-NH2 platform material demonstrated a higher electrochemical signal. In the Pt-Fe3O4-MWCNTs-NH2 label, multiwalled carbon nanotubes provided the substratum to anchor abundant catalytic Pt and Fe3O4 NPs. The nanocomposites were thoroughly characterized using transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. An electroanalytical study and prevalidation of the immunosensor was carried out. The immunosensor exhibited exceptional capabilities in detecting CA 15-3, offering a wider linear range of 0.0005-100 U mL-1 and a lower detection limit of 0.00008 U mL-1. Moreover, the designed immunosensor showed good specificity, reproducibility, and acceptable stability. The sensor was successfully applied to analyze samples from breast cancer patients, yielding reliable results.

Abstract
Tumor-marker immunosensors for rapid on-site detection have not yet been developed because of immunoreaction bottlenecks, such as shortening the reaction time and facilitating incubation. In this study, a gold-boron-nitrogen-codoped graphene (Au-BNG)-based immunosensor antenna was constructed for the rapid detection of neuron-specific enolase (NSE). A Au-BNG radiation electrode with dual functions of antibody protein fixation and signal transmission was developed for the first time. A radiation sample cell was constructed by embedding a radiation electrode into the groove of a poly(dimethylsiloxane) dielectric substrate. The constructed sense antenna achieves accurate detection of NSE with a range from 50 fg mL-1 to 40,000 pg mL-1 and a limit of detection of 10.99 fg mL-1, demonstrating excellent selectivity, stability, and reliability. The tumor-marker detection meter can provide NSE detection results as rapidly as within 2 min by using the new strategy of the microwave self-incubation of tumor markers. This antenna immunosensor is suitable for rapid detection in outpatient clinics and can be developed into household tumor-marker detectors, which would be significant in the early detection, long-term monitoring, and efficacy evaluation of tumors.

Abstract
Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide. Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) accounts for 10-15% of cases and has an overall 5-years survival rate of only 15%. Neuron-specific enolase (NSE) has been identified as a useful biomarker for early SCLC diagnosis and therapeutic monitoring. This work reports an electrochemical immunosensing platform based on a graphene-graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) nanocomposite for ultrasensitive NSE detection. The g-C3N4 nanosheets and graphene nanosheets were synthesized via liquid exfoliation and integrated through self-assembly to form the nanocomposite. This nanocomposite was used to modify screen-printed carbon electrodes followed by covalent immobilization of anti-NSE antibodies. The unique properties of the graphene-g-C3N4 composite facilitated efficient antibody loading while also enhancing electron transfer efficiency and electrochemical response. Systematic optimization of experimental parameters was performed. The immunosensor exhibited a wide linear detection range of 10 pg/mL to 100 ng/mL and low limit of detection of 3 pg/mL for NSE along with excellent selectivity against interferences. Real serum matrix analysis validated the applicability of the developed platform for sensitive and accurate NSE quantifica-tion at clinically relevant levels. This novel graphene-g-C3N4 nanocomposite based electro-chemical immunoassay demonstrates great promise for early diagnosis of SCLC.

Abstract
In the current study a simple and highly specific label-free impedimetric neuron specific enolase (NSE) immunosensor based on a copolymer matrix-coated disposable electrode was designed and tested. The copolymer matrix was prepared using a very conductive EDOT monomer and semi-conductive thiophene-bearing epoxy groups (ThEp), and the combination of the two monomers enhanced the conductivity and protein loading capacity of the electrode surface. The P(ThEp-co-EDOT) copolymer matrix was prepared via a drop-casting process and anti-NSE recognition biomolecules were immobilized directly on the epoxy groups of the copolymer. After the coupling of NSE molecules on the P(ThEp-co-EDOT) copolymer matrix-coated electrode surface, the charge transfer resistance (Rct) of the biosensor changed dramatically. These changes in Rct were proportional to the NSE molecule amounts captured by anti-NSE molecules. Under optimized experimental conditions, the increment in the Rct value was proportional to the NSE concentration over a range of 0.01 to 25 pg mL-1 with a detection limit (LOD) of 2.98 × 10-3 pg mL-1. This copolymer-coated electrode provided a lower LOD than the other biosensors. In addition, the suggested electrochemical immuno-platform showed good selectivity, superior reproducibility, long-term stability, and high recovery of NSE in real serum (95.64-102.20%) and saliva (95.28-105.35%) samples. These results showed that the present system had great potential for electrochemical biosensing applications.

Abstract
An ultrasensitive sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor for pro-gastrin-releasing peptide (ProGRP) detection was constructed based on PtCu nanodendrites functionalized Au/polyaniline nanospheres (Au/PANI@PtCu). The prepared Au/PANI@PtCu nanocomposites not only possessed excellent electro-catalytic activity of H2O2 reduction due to the synergistic effect between the Au/PANI and PtCu NDs but also provided large specific surface area for detection of antibodies (Ab2) immobilization. In addition, Au nanoparticles encapsulated multi-wall carbon nanotubes (AuNPs@MWCNTs) were also applied to modify the glassy carbon electrode interface for loading numerous capture antibodies (Ab1). In the presence of target ProGRP, a sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor showed a strong current response from the electro-catalysis of Au/PANI@PtCu toward H2O2 reduction. Benefiting from the exceptional electro-catalytic performance of Au/PANI@PtCu and the high conductivity of AuNPs@MWCNTs, the sandwich-type immunoassay exhibited remarkable sensitivity in detection. The linear range extended from 100 fg/mL to 10 ng/mL, while achieving an impressively low limit of detection of 77.62 fg/mL.

Abstract
Early and rapid detection of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) is highly significant, as it is putative biomarker for small-cell lung cancer as well as COVID-19. Electrochemical techniques have attracted substantial attention for the early detection of cancer biomarkers due to the important properties of simplicity, high sensitivity, specificity, low cost, and point-of-care detection. This work reviews the clinically relevant labeled and label-free electrochemical immunosensors developed so far for the analysis of NSE. The prevailing role of nanostructured materials as electrode matrices is thoroughly discussed. Subsequently, the key performances of various immunoassays are critically evaluated in terms of limit of detection, linear ranges, and incubation time for clinical translation. Electrochemical techniques coupled with screen-printed electrodes developing market level commercialization of NSE sensors is also discussed. Finally, the review concludes with the current challenges associated with available methods and provides a future outlook toward commercialization opportunities for easy detection of NSE.

Abstract
As a reliable biomarker to evaluate the severity of sepsis, sensitive and accurate detection of procalcitonin (PCT) is essential. In this study, a dual-mode electrochemical immunosensor based on Au/ZIF-8 as substrate and Pt@Cu2O as signal label was constructed for the detection of PCT. By loading Au nanoparticles onto rhombic dodecahedral ZIF-8, the substrate (Au/ZIF-8) has large specific surface area and can immobilize antibody (Ab1) by Au-N bonds. Meanwhile, hollow Pt@Cu2O nanocomposite with excellent peroxidase-like activity and electrocatalytic activity were synthesized as signal label. In the process of electrochemical testing, Pt@Cu2O catalyzed the reduction of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and further promotes the oxidation of hydroquinone (HQ) to achieve the synergistic amplification of electrochemical signals. The proposed immunosensor detected PCT by amperometric i-t and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) tests with a good linear response and low limit of detection (i-t: 0.70 fg/mL and DPV: 0.40 fg/mL) in the range of 10 fg/mL∼100 ng/mL. The immunosensor exhibited excellent sensitivity and accuracy, indicating the potential application of this method for PCT detection.

Abstract
Amyloid-beta protein (Aβ) is a unique biomarker for Alzheimer's disease (AD). The sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor, one of the key tools for detecting biomarkers, relies on a high-performance signal amplification approach to enhance its sensitivity. Ni/PdH nanodendrites (Ni/PdH NDs) have increased catalytic activity due to their unique interaction with palladium hydride and their nickel-rich surface, tunable shape and high specific surface area. Modified halloysite nanotubes (mHNT)-loaded with polypyrrole (PPy@mHNT) possess excellent dispersion and a large surface area. This enables the formation of a conductive network to prevent the accumulation of Ni/PdH NDs. Additionally, it exposes more electrocatalytic active centers, effectively amplifying electrical signals. By utilizing Ni/PdH@PPy@mHNT as the labeling material, it shows a consistent and remarkable electrocatalytic activity in H2O2 reduction, leading to signal amplification. The acid-etched HNT coated with polyaniline (PANI@eHNT) exhibits an exceptionally low background signal and outstanding conductivity. This not only accelerates electron transfer on the electrode surface, but also ensures the stable incubation of biomolecules post-amino grafting. Utilizing NH2-PANI@eHNT as a substrate material can guarantee stable biomolecule incubation, offer a stable sensing platform and enhance immunosensor performance. The signal can be amplified and the immunosensor's sensitivity can be raised through the efficient cooperation of the aforementioned nanomaterials. Under optimum circumstances, the electrochemical immunosensor had the lowest detection limit of 5.53 fg mL-1 and a linear range of 50 fg mL-1 to 100 ng mL-1. Based on the outstanding performance previously mentioned, this immunosensor is anticipated to aid in the early detection of AD.

Abstract
The essential expansion of electrochemiluminescence (ECL) technology into clinical detection relies on sensitive and stable signal and maintenance of the activity of the immune molecules during the analysis. This poses a critical challenge for an ECL biosensor as a luminophore in general requires high potential excitation resulting in a strong ECL signal; nevertheless, it has an irreversible effect on the activity of the antigen or antibody. Herein, a novel electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor utilizing nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots (N-CQDs) as emitters and molybdenum sulfide/ferric oxide (MoS2@Fe2O3) nanocomposites as a coreaction accelerator was developed for detection of neuron-specific enolase (NSE), a biomarker of small cell lung cancer. The doping of nitrogen allows the CQDs to exhibit ECL signals with low excitation potential, with a more viable activity possible for immune molecules. MoS2@Fe2O3 nanocomposites exhibit superior coreaction acceleration characteristics in hydrogen peroxide than any single component of them, and the highly branched dendrite microstructure provides a large number of binding sites for immune molecular, which is an inevitable factor for trace detection. In addition, ion beam sputtering gold particle technology is introduced into the sensor fabrication via an Au-N bond, which will provide sufficient density orientation for capturing the antibody load via the Au-N bonds. With excellent repeatability, stability, and specificity, the as-purposed sensing platform showed differentiated ECL responses of NSE range from 10.00 fg/mL to 500 ng/mL, and the limit of detection (LOD) was calculated of 6.30 fg/mL (S/N = 3). The proposed biosensor is prospective to provide a new avenue for the analysis of NSE or other biomarkers.

A label-free electrochemical immunosensor based on PtCoCu PNPs/NB-rGO as a dual signal amplification platform for sensitive detection of β-Amyloid 1-42. Bioelectrochemistry 2023; 152:108405.

Abstract
In this work, a label-free electrochemical immunosensor based on popcorn-shaped PtCoCu nanoparticles supported on N- and B-codoped reduced graphene oxide (PtCoCu PNPs/NB-rGO) was constructed to sensitively detect concentration level of β-Amyloid1-42 oligomers (Aβ). The PtCoCu PNPs exhibits excellent catalytic ability due to its popcorn structure which improves the specific surface area and porosity, resulting in more active sites being exposed and fast transport paths for ion/electron. NB-rGO with large surface area and unique pleated structure could disperse PtCoCu PNPs through electrostatic adsorption and formation of d-p dative bonds between the metal ion and pyridinic N of NB-rGO. In addition, the doping of B atoms enhances the catalytic ability of GO enormously and achieves further signal amplification. Besides, both PtCoCu PNPs and NB-rGO are able to fix abundant antibodies through M(Pt, Co, Cu)-N bonds and amide bonds respectively without any other complex processing procedures such as carboxylation, ect. The designed platform achieved the dual amplification of electrocatalytic signal and effectively immobilization of antibodies. Under the optimum conditions, the designed electrochemical immunosensor presented wide linear rang (50.0 fg/mL ∼ 100 ng/mL) and low detection limits (3.5 fg/mL). The results demonstrated that the prepared immunosensor will be promising in sensitive detection of AD biomarkers.

Abstract
The incidence rate of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remains high, and their mortality rate is significantly higher than that of other diseases. Growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) is a recently developed biomarker for the early diagnosis and prognostic evaluation of CVDs because its concentration in serum increases substantially after a cardiovascular injury or an inflammatory reaction. In this study, a sandwich-type immunosensor was constructed for the sensitive detection of GDF-15. Specifically, peony-like zinc gallinate (ZnGa2O4) prepared using a hydrothermal method, which exhibits excellent electrocatalytic performance, was coupled with Au nanoparticles (NPs) to obtain golden-peony-like ZnGa2O4/Au NPs. They preserved the immune activity of GDF-15 antibody molecules and further enhanced the conductivity, thereby realizing additional signal amplification. Hollow polyaniline (PANI) microtubules decorated with Pd NPs were used as the sensing platform (PANI/Pd NPs). The hollow microtubules provided abundant active sites and considerably improved the electron-transfer rate. Under optimal conditions, a linear range and remarkably low detection limit of 100 fg mL-1-10 ng mL-1 and 42.23 fg mL-1, respectively, were achieved. These experimental results indicate that the strategy reported herein can be adopted as a novel approach for the convenient and rapid detection of GDF-15.

Abstract
Although colorectal cancer (CRC) is easy to treat surgically and can be combined with postoperative chemotherapy, its five-year survival rate is still not optimistic. Therefore, developing sensitive, efficient, and compliant detection technology is essential to diagnose CRC at an early stage, providing more opportunities for effective treatment and intervention. Currently, the widely used clinical CRC detection methods include endoscopy, stool examination, imaging modalities, and tumor biomarker detection; among them, blood biomarkers, a noninvasive strategy for CRC screening, have shown significant potential for early diagnosis, prediction, prognosis, and staging of cancer. As shown by recent studies, electrochemical biosensors have attracted extensive attention for the detection of blood biomarkers because of their advantages of being cost-effective and having sound sensitivity, good versatility, high selectivity, and a fast response. Among these, nano-conductive polymer materials, especially the conductive polymer polypyrrole (PPy), have been broadly applied to improve sensing performance due to their excellent electrical properties and the flexibility of their surface properties, as well as their easy preparation and functionalization and good biocompatibility. This review mainly discusses the characteristics of PPy-based biosensors, their synthetic methods, and their application for the detection of CRC biomarkers. Finally, the opportunities and challenges related to the use of PPy-based sensors for diagnosing CRC are also discussed.

Abstract
Nanobiosensors are devices that utilize a very small probe and any form of electrical, optical, or magnetic technology to detect and analyze a biochemical or biological process. With an increasing population today, nanobiosensors have become the broadly used electroanalytical tools for the timely detection of many infectious (dengue, hepatitis, tuberculosis, leukemia, etc.) and other fatal diseases, such as prostate cancer, breast cancer, etc., at their early stage. Compared to classical or traditional analytical methods, nanobiosensors have significant benefits, including low detection limit, high selectivity and sensitivity, shorter analysis duration, easier portability, biocompatibility, and ease of miniaturization for on-site monitoring. Very similar to biosensors, nanobiosensors can also be classified in numerous ways, either depending on biological molecules, such as enzymes, antibodies, and aptamer, or by working principles, such as optical and electrochemical. Various nanobiosensors, such as cyclic voltametric, amperometric, impedimetric, etc., have been discussed for the timely monitoring of the infectious and fatal diseases at their early stage. Nanobiosensors performance and efficiency can be enhanced by using a variety of engineered nanostructures, which include nanotubes, nanoparticles, nanopores, self-adhesive monolayers, nanowires, and nanocomposites. Here, this mini review recaps the application of two-dimensional (2D) materials, especially graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4), graphene oxide, black phosphorous, and MXenes, for the construction of the nanobiosensors and their application for the diagnosis of various infectious diseases at very early stage.

Abstract
A sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor was designed for the ultrasensitive detection of prostate-specific antigen (PSA), using Au nanoparticles (Au NPs) modified nitrogen-doped porous carbon (NPC) as sensor platform and trimetallic PdAgCu mesoporous nanospheres (PdAgCu MNSs) as enzyme-mimicking labels. NPC was prepared by a facile one-step pyrolysis strategy of biomimetic phylloid zeolite imidazole framework (ZIF-L) nanosheets. Through this strategy, the graphitization of the microcrystalline structure enhanced the electrical conductivity, while its enlarged specific surface area and abundant pore volume can enrich H2O2 to improve the catalytic efficiency. Moreover, Au NPs were used to modify NPC without cross-linking agents to further optimize electron transport while capturing primary antibodies, improving stability and sensitivity of the immunosensor. PdAgCu MNSs with uniform size, cylindrical open mesoporous channels, and continuous crystal frame structure were self-assembling synthesized by electrostatic adsorption and ascorbic acid (AA) co-reduction with amphiphilic dioctadecyldimethylammonium chloride (DODAC) as surfactant-cum-micelle, whose unique structure maximizes the use of polyatoms to expose catalytic sites, exhibiting good biocompatibility and electrocatalytic ability. Under the optimal conditions, the immunosensor showed superior sensitivity, a wide dynamic detection range (10 fg mL-1 ~ 100 ng mL-1) and a low limit of detection (LOD, 3.29 fg mL-1). This work provides a convenient strategy for the clinical detection of PSA.
