Abstract
The development of a rapid and convenient detection method for nitrofurantoin (NFT) residual is of great significance for food safety. Herein, a new fluorescent probe (Eu-TDCA-Phen) was developed for the visual and sensitive assay of NFT through the fluorescence quenching effect of inner filter effect (IFE) and photo-induced electron transfer (PET). The probe suspension demonstrates a wide linear range (0-0.16 mM), low detection limit (90 nM), high sensitivity, and rapid response time (2 min) in the "turn-off" process. To quantify the visual detection process, a smartphone-assisted test paper sensing platform was established and was applied for NFT determination in real honey samples, achieving satisfactory recovery rate ranges from 98.04 % to 105.04 %. Furthermore, a logic gate device was integrated with the sensing platform to streamline the visual detection process. The sensing platform offers several merits, including simpleness, quantification, portability and cost-effectiveness, making it highly suitable for real-time and on-site detection of antibiotics in food samples.

Abstract
In this work, new strategies were developed to prepare 1D-V2MoO8 (VMO) rods from 2D V-doped MoSe2 nanosheets (VMoSe2) with good control over morphology and crystallinity by a facile hydrothermal and calcination process. The morphological changes from 2D to 1D rods were controlled by changing the calcination temperature from 300 to 600 °C. The elimination of Se and the incorporation of O into the V-Mo structure were evaluated by TGA, p-XRD, Raman, FE-SEM, EDAX, FE-TEM, and XPS analyses. These results prove that the optimization of the physical parameters leads to changes in the crystal phase and textural properties of the prepared material. The VMoSe2 and its calcined products were investigated as electrochemical sensors for the detection of the antibacterial drug nitrofurantoin (NFT). At a calcination temperature of 500 °C, the modified screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCE) proved to be an excellent electrochemical sensor for the detection of NFT in neutral media. Under the optimized conditions, VMO-500 °C/SPCE exhibits low detection limit (LOD) (0.015 μM), wide linear ranges (0.1-31, 47-1802 μM), good sensitivity, and selectivity. The proposed sensor was successfully used for the analysis of NFT in real samples with good recovery results. Moreover, the reduction potential of NFT agreed well with the theoretical analysis using quantum chemical calculations, with the B3LYP with 6-31G(d,p) basis set predicting an E0 value of -0.45 V. The interaction between the electrode surface and NFT via the LUMO diagram and the electrostatic potential surface is also discussed.

Abstract
Herein, a facile and highly effective nonenzymatic electrochemical sensing system is designed for the detection of the antibacterial drug nitrofurantoin (NFT). This electrocatalyst is a combination of a trimetallic Prussian blue analogue and conductive polyaniline coated onto a three-dimensional porous nickel foam substrate. A comprehensive set of physicochemical analyses have verified the successful synthesis. The fabricated electrochemical sensor exhibits an impressively low limit of detection (0.096 nM) and quantification (0.338 nM, S/N = 3.3), coupled with a wide linear range spanning from 0.1 nM to 5 mM and a sensitivity of 13.9 μA nM-1 cm-2. This excellent performance is attributed to the collaborative effects of conducting properties of polyaniline (PANI) and the remarkable redox behavior of the Prussian blue analogue (PBA). When both are integrated into the nickel foam, they create a significantly enlarged surface area with numerous catalytic active sites, enhancing the sensor's efficiency. The sensor demonstrates a high degree of specificity for NFT, while effectively minimizing responses to potential interferences such as flutamide, ascorbic acid, glucose, dopamine, uric acid, and nitrophenol, even when present in 2-3-fold higher concentrations. Moreover, to validate its practical utility, the sensor underwent real sample analysis using synthetic urine, achieving outstanding recovery rates of 118 and 101%.

Abstract
Carbohydrate antigen 15-3 (CA15-3) is an important biomarker for early diagnosis of breast cancer. Herein, a label-free electrochemical immunosensor was built based on three-dimensional (3D) urchin-like core-shell Au@PdCu nanocrystals (labeled Au@PdCu NCs) for highly sensitive detection of CA15-3, where K3[Fe(CN)6] behaved as an electroactive probe. The Au@PdCu NCs were synthesized by a simple one-pot wet-chemical approach and the morphology, structures, and electrocatalytic property were investigated by several techniques. The Au@PdCu NCs prepared worked as electrode material to anchor more antibodies and as signal magnification material by virtue of its exceptional catalytic property. The developed biosensor exhibited a wide linear detection range from 0.1 to 300 U mL-1 and a low limit of detection (0.011 U mL-1, S/N = 3) for determination of CA15-3 under the optimal conditions. The established biosensing platform exhibits some insights for detecting other tumor biomarkers in clinical assays and early diagnosis.

Abstract
Excessive presence of antibiotics and their residues can be dangerous to the natural environment. To reduce this negative effect, efficient strategies to remove them from the ecosystem are required. This study aimed to explore the potential of bacterial strains to degrade nitrofurantoin (NFT). Single strains isolated from contaminated areas, namely Stenotrophomonas acidaminiphila N0B, Pseudomonas indoloxydans WB, and Serratia marcescens ODW152 were employed in this study. Degradation efficiency and dynamic changes within the cells during NFT biodegradation were investigated. For this purpose, atomic force microscopy, flow cytometry, zeta potential, and particle size distribution measurements were applied. Serratia marcescens ODW152 showed the highest performance in removal of NFT (96 % in 28 days). The AFM images revealed modifications of cell shape and surface structure induced by NFT. Zeta potential showed significant variations during biodegradation. Cultures exposed to NFT had a broader size distribution than the control cultures due to increased cells agglomeration or aggregation. 1-Aminohydantoin and semicarbazide were detected as nitrofurantoin biotransformation products. They showed increased cytotoxicity toward bacteria as determined by spectroscopy and flow cytometry. Results of this study suggest that nitrofurantoin biodegradation leads to formation of stable transformation products that significantly affect the physiology and structure of bacterial cells.

Abstract
Considering the increasing concern for food safety, electrochemical methods for detecting specific ingredients in the food are currently the most efficient method due to their low cost, fast response signal, high sensitivity, and ease of use. The detection efficiency of electrochemical sensors is determined by the electrode materials' electrochemical characteristics. Among them, three-dimensional (3D) electrodes have unique advantages in electronic transfer, adsorption capacity and exposure of active sites for energy storage, novel materials, and electrochemical sensing. Therefore, this review begins by outlining the benefits and drawbacks of 3D electrodes compared to other materials before going into more detail about how 3D materials are synthesized. Next, different types of 3D electrodes are outlined together with common modification techniques for enhancing electrochemical performance. After this, a demonstration of 3D electrochemical sensors for food safety applications, such as detecting components, additives, emerging pollutants, and bacteria in food, was given. Finally, improvement measures and development directions of electrodes with 3D electrochemical sensors are discussed. We think that this review will help with the creation of new 3D electrodes and offer fresh perspectives on how to achieve extremely sensitive electrochemical detection in the area of food safety.

Abstract
β-Ni(OH)2 and β-Ni(OH)2/graphene oxide (GO) were prepared on an Ni foil electrode using the electrochemical cyclic voltammetry formed in 0.5 M KOH solution. Several surface analyses such as XPS, XRD, and Raman spectroscopies were used to confirm the chemical structure of the prepared materials. The morphologies were determined using SEM and AFM. The addition of the graphene oxide layer showed a remarkable increase in the specific capacitance of the hybrid. Through the measurements, the specific capacitance values were 280 F g-1 and 110 F g-1 after and before adding 4 layers of GO, respectively. The supercapacitor displays high stability until 500 cycles are charged and discharged almost without a loss in its capacitance values.

Abstract
Excessive use of nitrofurantoin (NFT) and its residues can be harmful to the ecosystem, and to mitigate this, rapid and cost-effective detection of NFT in water bodies is needed. In this regard, we prepared a three-dimensional (3D) copper-zeolitic imidazole framework (Cu/ZIF-8)-derived bimetallic Cu5Zn8 alloy-embedded hollow porous carbon nanocubes (Cu5Zn8/HPCNC) for electrochemical detection of NFT. The resultant material is characterized using suitable spectrophotometry and voltammetry methods. Cu5Zn8/HPCNC is an effective electrocatalyst with high electrical conductivity and a fast electron transfer rate. It also has more catalytic active sites for improved electrochemical reduction of NFT. Fabricated Cu5Zn8/HPCNC-modified screen-printed electrode (SPE) for NFT reduction have a wide linear range with a low detection limit, and high sensitivity (15.343 μA μМ-1 cm-2), appreciable anti-interference ability with related nitro compounds, storage stability, reproducibility, and repeatability. Also, the practicability of Cu5Zn8/HPCNC/SPE can be successfully employed in NFT monitoring in water bodies (drinking water, pond water, river water, and tap water) with satisfactory recoveries.
