Abstract
A N-[(Benzyloxy)carbonyl]-l-alanyl-l-prolyl-l-leucine-N-cyclohexylcyclohexanamine (Cbz-APL) tripeptide-coated glassy carbon electrode (GCE)-based sensor was used for sensitive and selective recognition of cadmium ions in environmental water. Detailed cyclic voltammetric and electrochemical impedance spectroscopic studies were performed to investigate the charge transfer and sensing activity of the developed electrochemical sensor. Square wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV) was employed to further investigate the sensitivity, selectivity, validity, and applicability of the developed sensor. A sharp electrochemical signal of oxidized Cd at -0.84 V versus Ag/AgCl provides evidence for the higher sensing ability of Cbz-APL/GCE than bare GCE at -0.79 V. Moreover, on Cbz-APL/GCE, extraordinary low detection limits of 4.34 fM and linearity range of 15 nM to 0.1 pM with coefficients of correlation higher than 0.99 for Cd2+ were achieved. Besides, the influence of inorganic and organic interferents on the targeted analyte signals was examined, and high selectivity of Cbz-APL/GCE for Cd2+ ions was observed. Lastly, the validity and applicability of the developed electrochemical sensor for the detection of Cd2+ ions were checked in real water samples, and 100% recovery was obtained.

Abstract
This work reports for the first time the preparation and performance of a nanosensor for the simultaneous detection of metanil yellow and fast green, which are toxic food dyes. For the development of this sensitive platform, the surface of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was modified with calixarene and gold nanoparticles. The sensing ability of the designed nanosensor (calix8/Au NPs/GCE) was tested by cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse voltammetry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The influence of a number of parameters was investigated for optimizing the conditions to achieve the best response of the target analytes. Due to the synergistic activity of calix[8]arene and Au nanoparticles, the calix8/Au NPs/GCE nanocomposite was found to significantly enhance the signals of the selected food dyes in comparison to bare GCE. Under optimized conditions, limits of detection for metanil yellow and fast green were found to be 9.8 and 19.7 nM, respectively, at the calix8/Au NPs/GCE. The designed sensing platform also demonstrated figures of merit when applied for the sensing of food dyes in real water and juice samples. Moreover, high percent recovery, reproducibility, and stability suggested applicability of the designed electrochemical platform for real sample analysis.

Abstract
Herein, we present a greener approach to achieve an ultrasensitive, selective, and viable sensor engineered by amino acids as a recognition layer for simultaneous electrochemical sensing of toxic heavy metals (HMs). Electrochemical techniques like electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and square-wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV) were applied to demonstrate sensing capabilities of the designed analytical tool. The comparative results of different amino acids demonstrate alanine's superior performance with a well-resolved and enhanced current signal for target metal ions due to strong complexation of its functional moieties. The working conditions for alanine-modified GCE were optimized by investigating the effect of alanine concentration, different supporting electrolytes, pH values, accumulation potentials, and time. The limits of detection for Zn2+, Cd2+, Cu2+, and Hg2+ were found to be 8.92, 5.77, 3.01, and 5.89 pM, respectively. The alanine-modified electrode revealed absolute discrimination ability, stability, and ultrasensitivity toward metal ions even in the presence of multifold interfering species. Likewise, greener modifier-designed electrodes possessed remarkable electrocatalytic activity, cost affordability, reproducibility, and applicability for picomolar level detection of HM ions in real water sample matrixes. Theoretical calculations for the HM-amino acid interaction also support a significantly improved mediator role of the alanine modifier that is consistent with the experimental findings.

Abstract
Abstract
Electro-oxidation of Br− on platinum and gold electrode was studied in acetonitrile, methanol and mix media of acetonitrile–methanol. The mechanism of Br− oxidation in these media was investigated using CV, Semi Integration Cyclic Voltammetry, and Digital Simulation technique. Since, Br− oxidation mechanism on platinum involves the formation of Br3
− as intermediate, therefore, Kstab for Br3
− formation in the mixed media was estimated using digital simulation, Nelson and Iwamoto method. Redox mechanism of Br− and Br2 on gold (Au) electrode was also investigated in protic solvent such as H2O, methanol, ethanol, 1-butanol, and formic acid. It was ascertained that Br− oxidation on gold (Au) electrode in these above protic solvents involve [AuBr2]− intermediate rather than Br3
−.

Abstract
Three-dimensional molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) based on quantum dots-grafted covalent organic frameworks (QDs-grafted COFs) are reported in this study. The compound 1,3,5-triformylphloroglucinol-P-phenylenediamine was used as COF material to react with the amino-modified CdSe/ZnS QDs by Schiff-base reactions. The amino-derived QDs reacted with quinoxaline-2-carboxylicacid (QCA) via a non-covalent interaction. The system combines the advantages of MIPs, COFs, and QDs for highly sensitive and selective QCA detection. The MIPs based on QDs-grafted COFs showed good chemical selectivity and thermal stability, as well as consistency in QCA optosensing. Under optimal conditions, the detection limit for QCA in meat and feed samples was 0.85 μmol L−1, over a linear concentration range of 1–50 μmol L−1. The current findings suggest a potential application of MIPs based on QDs-grafted COFs for the detection of trace levels of hazardous chemicals for food safety and environmental control.

Abstract
A novel Schiff base, 1-((2, 4-dimethylphenylimino)methyl)naphthalen-2-ol abbreviated as (HL) and its four metallic complexes were synthesized and confirmed by 1H and 13C NMR, FTIR, TGA and UV-Visible spectroscopy. Schiff base was also characterized by X-ray analysis. The photometric and electrochemical responses of all the synthesized compounds were investigated in a wide pH range. Structures of the compounds were optimized computationally for the evaluation of different physico-chemical parameters. On the basis of electrochemical results the redox mechanistic pathways of the compounds were proposed. The cytotoxicity analysis on Hela cells revealed that HL and its complexes inhibit cell growth as revealed from their IC50 values (HL):106.7μM, (L2VO): 40.66μM, (L2Sn): 5.92μM, (L2Zn): 42.82 and (L2Co): 107.68μM. The compounds were tested for anti-diabetic, triglyceride, cholesterol, anti-microbial, anti-fungal and enzyme inhibition activities. The results revealed that HL and its complexes are promising new therapeutic options as these compounds exhibit strong activity against cancer cells, diabetics, fungal and microbial inhibition.
