Abstract
Staphylococcus aureus is an important pathogen that causes nosocomial infections, resulting in unacceptable morbidity and mortality rates. In this work, we proposed the construction of a nanostructured ZnO-based electrochemical immunosensor for qualitative and semiquantitative detection of S. aureus using simple methods for growing zinc oxide nanorods (ZnO NRs) on a sensor board and immobilizing the anti-S. aureus antibody on ZnO NRs through cystamine and glutaraldehyde. The immunosensor detected S. aureus in the 103-107 colony-forming unit (CFU) mL-1 range and showed a limit of detection (LoD) around 0.792 × 103 CFU mL-1. Beyond a satisfactory LoD, the developed immunosensor presented other advantages, such as high versatility for point-of-care assays and a suitable selective factor that admits the detection of the S. aureus concentration range in human hand skin after washing. Moreover, the immunosensor showed the potential to be an excellent device to control nosocomial infection by detecting the presence of S. aureus in human hand skin.

Abstract
Nanostructured metal oxides (NMOs) provide electrical properties such as high surface-to-volume ratio, reaction activity, and good adsorption strength. Furthermore, they serve as a conductive substrate for the immobilization of biomolecules, exhibiting notable biological activity. Capitalizing on these characteristics, they find utility in the development of various electrochemical biosensing devices, elevating the sensitivity and selectivity of such diagnostic platforms. In this review, different types of NMOs, including zinc oxide (ZnO), titanium dioxide (TiO2), iron (II, III) oxide (Fe3O4), nickel oxide (NiO), and copper oxide (CuO); their synthesis methods; and how they can be integrated into biosensors used for medical diagnosis are examined. It also includes a detailed table for the last 10 years covering the morphologies, analysis techniques, analytes, and analytical performances of electrochemical biosensors developed for medical diagnosis.

An Electroanalytical Enzymeless α-Fe 2O 3-ZnO Hybrid Nanostructure-Based Sensor for Sensitive Quantification of Nitrite Ions. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 14:706. [PMID: 38668200 PMCID: PMC11054654 DOI: 10.3390/nano14080706] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2024] [Revised: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 04/29/2024]
Abstract
Nitrite monitoring serves as a fundamental practice for protecting public health, preserving environmental quality, ensuring food safety, maintaining industrial safety standards, and optimizing agricultural practices. Although many nitrite sensing methods have been recently developed, the quantification of nitrite remains challenging due to sensitivity and selectivity limitations. In this context, we present the fabrication of enzymeless iron oxide nanoparticle-modified zinc oxide nanorod (α-Fe2O3-ZnO NR) hybrid nanostructure-based nitrite sensor fabrication. The α-Fe2O3-ZnO NR hybrid nanostructure was synthesized using a two-step hydrothermal method and characterized in detail utilizing x-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). These analyses confirm the successful synthesis of an α-Fe2O3-ZnO NR hybrid nanostructure, highlighting its morphology, purity, crystallinity, and elemental constituents. The α-Fe2O3-ZnO NR hybrid nanostructure was used to modify the SPCE (screen-printed carbon electrode) for enzymeless nitrite sensor fabrication. The voltammetric methods (i.e., cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV)) were employed to explore the electrochemical characteristics of α-Fe2O3-ZnO NR/SPCE sensors for nitrite. Upon examination of the sensor's electrochemical behavior across a range of nitrite concentrations (0 to 500 µM), it is evident that the α-Fe2O3-ZnO NR hybrid nanostructure shows an increased response with increasing nitrite concentration. The sensor demonstrates a linear response to nitrite concentrations up to 400 µM, a remarkable sensitivity of 18.10 µA µM-1 cm-2, and a notably low detection threshold of 0.16 µM. Furthermore, its exceptional selectivity, stability, and reproducibility make it an ideal tool for accurately measuring nitrite levels in serum, yielding reliable outcomes. This advancement heralds a significant step forward in the field of environmental monitoring, offering a potent solution for the precise assessment of nitrite pollution.

Abstract
Industrial development has led to the widespread production of toxic materials, including carcinogenic, mutagenic, and toxic chemicals. Even with strict management and control measures, such materials still pose threats to human health. Therefore, convenient chemical sensors are required for toxic chemical monitoring, such as optical, electrochemical, nanomaterial-based, and biological-system-based sensors. Many existing and new chemical sensors have been developed, as well as new methods based on novel technologies for detecting toxic materials. The emergence of material sciences and advanced technologies for fabrication and signal-transducing processes has led to substantial improvements in the sensing elements for target recognition and signal-transducing elements for reporting interactions between targets and sensing elements. Many excellent reviews have effectively summarized the general principles and applications of different types of chemical sensors. Therefore, this review focuses on chemical sensor advancements in terms of the sensing and signal-transducing elements, as well as more recent achievements in chemical sensors for toxic material detection. We also discuss recent trends in biosensors for the detection of toxic materials.

Abstract
The complex and versatile interactions among the wide variety of the nanostructures and the target analytes have primarily limited the detailed investigation of the transduction mechanism of nanomaterial-assisted electrical signal-based biosensors despite their high sensitivity, low-cost, portability, and ease of deployment. Hence, no common ground is formed detailing the principle of operation, demanding a strong need for systematic examination instead of hit and trial. Therefore, a maiden mechanistic investigation has been carried out in this paper for a field-effect-based biosensor device relying on the energy band diagram and the surface potential profile. To demonstrate the experimental evidence and appreciate the importance of food safety, three hazardous foodborne pathogens (Proteus mirabilis, Escherichia coli, and Clostridium botulinum) have been detected herein. The biosensor device, built on a hydrothermally synthesized zinc oxide and MWCNT (ZnO-MWCNT) composite nanostructure, simultaneously incorporates three fairly specific ss-DNA probes. Furthermore, the unmet challenge of biosensor device variability is addressed through the optimum selection of operating voltage of the device via a unique "voltage-selection-algorithm". We believe that the rigorous experimentation and the insightful device-physics realization demonstrated in this work will pave the way for a future decisive biosensor platform.

Abstract
Electrochemical biosensors based on immobilized enzymes are among the most popular and commercially successful biosensors. The literature in this field suggests that modification of electrodes with nanomaterials is an excellent method for enzyme immobilization, which can greatly improve the stability and sensitivity of the sensor. However, the poor stability, weak reproducibility, and limited lifetime of the enzyme itself still limit the requirements for the development of enzyme electrochemical biosensors for food production process monitoring. Therefore, constructing sensing technologies based on enzyme electrochemical biosensors remains a great challenge. This article outlines the construction principles of four generations of enzyme electrochemical biosensors and discusses the applications of single-enzyme systems, multi-enzyme systems, and nano-enzyme systems developed based on these principles. The article further describes methods to improve enzyme immobilization by combining different types of nanomaterials such as metals and their oxides, graphene-related materials, metal-organic frameworks, carbon nanotubes, and conducting polymers. In addition, the article highlights the challenges and future trends of enzyme electrochemical biosensors, providing theoretical support and future perspectives for further research and development of high-performance enzyme chemical biosensors.

Abstract
The waste management of polyethylene terephthalate (PET)-derived polyester (PES) textile is a global issue, and material recovery through chemical recycling can restore a circular economy. In our investigation, microwave-induced catalytic aminolysis and glycolysis of PES textile wastes using Ag-doped ZnO nanoparticles have been proposed. Ag-doped ZnO is prepared by the sol-gel method and characterised by XRD, FT-IR, UV-Vis, SEM-EDX and TEM. The reaction parameters such as PET-to-catalyst ratio, microwave power and irradiation time, temperature and catalyst recycling have been optimised. The catalyst was found to be more stable and could be recycled up to six times without losing its activity. Both the aminolysis and glycolysis of PES showed 100% conversion and afforded of bis (2-hydroxy ethylene) terephthalamide (BHETA) and bis (2-hydroxy ethylene) terephthalate (BHET), respectively. The depolymerisation of PES wastes using Ag-doped ZnO afforded BHETA and BHET for about 95 and 90%, respectively. The monomers BHET and BHETA confirmed by FT-IR, 1H NMR and mass spectroscopy. According to the findings, 2 mol% Ag-doped ZnO has higher catalytic activity.

Abstract
In this study, simultaneous analysis on electrochemical detection of SMX and TMP in tablet formulation has been made using graphene oxide (GO) and ZnO QDs (GO-ZnO QDs) based nanocomposite modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The functional group presence was observed using FTIR study. The electrochemical characterization for GO, ZnO QDs and GO-ZnO QDs was studied using cyclic voltammetry using [Fe(CN)6]3- medium. In order to estimate the electrochemical redox behavior of SMX and TMP from tablet, the developed electrodes GO/GCE, ZnO QDs/GCE and GO-ZnO QDs/GCE are initially tested for electrochemical activity towards the SMX tablet in BR pH 7 medium. Later their electrochemical sensing has been monitored using square wave voltammetry (SWV). On observing the characteristic behavior of developed electrodes, GO/GCE exhibited detection potential of +0.48 V for SMX and +1.37 V for TMP whereas, ZnO QDs/GCE with +0.78V for SMX and for TMP 1.01 V respectively. Similarly, for GO-ZnO QDs/GCE, its 0.45 V for SMX and 1.11 V for TMP are observed using cyclic voltammetry. The obtained potential results on detecting SMX and TMP are in good agreement with previous results. Under optimized conditions, the response has been monitored with linear concentration range 50 μg/L to 300 μg/L for GO/GCE, ZnO QDs/GCE and GO-ZnO QDs/GCE in SMX tablet formulations. Their detection limits for the individual detection using GO-ZnO/GCE for SMX and TMP are found to be 0.252 ng/L and 19.10 μg/L and for GO/GCE it was 0.252 pg/L and 2.059 ng/L respectively. It was observed that ZnO QDs/GCE could not provide the electrochemical sensing towards SMX and TMP which may be due to the ZnO QPs can act as a blocking layer impeding the electron transfer process. Thus, the sensor performance lead to promising biomedical applications in real-time monitoring on evaluating selective analysis with SMX and TMP in tablet formulations.

Abstract
A novel technique based on inverted Lamb wave MEMS resonator has been exploited for the realization of a DNA biosensor. Zinc oxide based Lamb wave MEMS resonator in the inverted configuration of ZnO/SiO2/Si/ZnO is fabricated for label free and efficient detection of Neisseria meningitidis, responsible for bacterial meningitis. Meningitis remains a devastating endemic in sub-Saharan Africa. Its early detection can prevent the spread and its lethal complications. The developed biosensor shows a very high sensitivity of 310 Hz(ngμl-1)-1 and very low detection limit of 82 pgμl-1 for symmetric mode of the Lamb wave device while the antisymmetric mode shows a sensitivity of 202 Hz(ngμl-1)-1 and the limit of detection of 84 pgμl-1. This very high sensitivity and very low detection limit of the Lamb wave resonator can be attributed to very high mass loading effect on the membranous structure of Lamb wave device, unlike the bulk substrate based devices. The indigenously developed MEMS based inverted Lamb wave biosensor shows high selectivity, long shelf life and good reproducibility. The ease of operation, low processing time and possibility of wireless integration of the of the Lamb wave DNA sensor paves a path towards the promising application in the field of meningitidis detection. The use of fabricated biosensor can be extended to other viral and bacterial detection applications as well.

Abstract
Graphene Oxide-Zinc Oxide (GO-ZnO) - a new nanomaterial that has queued the interest of researchers. Their intriguing promising physical and electrochemical features of electrode material have led to its widespread use in electrochemical sensor applications. GO-ZnO based nanomaterial were extensively exploited in the construction of electrochemical sensors due to their adaptability and distinct qualities. On understanding the structural role of these materials, their modification processes are critical for realizing their full potential. The advancement of technology on new concepts and strategies has revolutionized the field of sensor devices with high sensitivities and selectivity. These tools can test a range of contaminants quickly, accurately, and affordably while performing automated chemical analysis in complicated matrices. This paper highlights the electrochemical transducer surface for sensing various analytes and current research activity on GO-ZnO nanocomposite. Additionally, we talked about current developments in GO-ZnO nanostructured composites to identify relevant analytes (i.e., Nitrophenols, Antibiotic Drugs, Biomolecules). While being used in the laboratory, the majority of produced systems have proven to bring about excellent gains. Their monitoring application still has a long way to go before it is fixed due to problems like technological advancements and multifunctional strategies to get around the challenges for improving the sensing systems.

Abstract
Pharmaceutical pollution that imposes a health threat worldwide is making accurate and rapid detection crucial to prevent adverse effects. Herein, binder-free zinc oxide nanograins on carbon cloth (ZnO NGs@CC) have been synthesized hydrothermally and employed to fabricate a flexible electrochemical sensor for the quantification of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) that is typical pharmaceutical pollution. The characteristics of ZnO NGs@CC were investigated by various in-depth electron microscopic, spectroscopic and electroanalytical approaches. Compared with the pristine CC platform, the ZnO NGs@CC platform exhibits superior electrochemical performance in detecting HCQ with a large oxidation current at a low over-potential of +0.92 V with respect to the Ag/AgCl (Sat. KCl) reference electrode. With the support of desirable characteristics, the fabricated ZnO NGs@CC-based electrochemical sensor for HCQ detection displays good performances in terms of wide sensing range (0.5-116 μM), low detection limit (0.09 μM), high sensitivity (0.279 μA μM-1 cm-2), and strong selectivity. By the resulting 3D hierarchical nanoarchitecture, ZnO NGs@CC has progressive structural advantages that led to its excellent electrochemical performance in sensing applications. Furthermore, the electrochemical sensor is employed to detect HCQ in biological and environmental samples and also achieves good recovery rates. Thus, the designed ZnO NGs@CC demonstrates admirable electrochemical activity toward HCQ real-time monitoring and would be an excellent electrochemical platform for HCQ sensing.

Abstract
In this study, the biological effects of ZnO nanosheets were initially investigated using embryonic bovine lung (EBL) cells cultured in vitro as a model. ZnO nanosheets were prepared by a hydrothermal method, and their structure and morphology were characterized, and their effects on EBL cell viability, oxidative stress, cell proliferation, and apoptosis were investigated. The results showed that 12.5 μg ml−1 ZnO nanosheets can cause morphological changes in EBL cells. The toxic effects of ZnO nanosheets on EBL cells were time-dependent. Caspase-3 activity in EBL cells changed under certain conditions with the introduction of 25 μg ml−1 ZnO nanomaterials, and EBL cell apoptosis was promoted. Under different concentration and time effects, ZnO nanosheets induced an increase in ROS levels in EBL cells, indicating that they have an oxidative damage effect on cells. The toxic effects of ZnO nanosheets on EBL cells were discussed, including concentration effect, time effect, and cytotoxic effect, which eventually led to cell oxidative damage.

Abstract
The evolution of various point defects in 100 keV lithium (Li) ion-implanted ZnO nanorods (NRs) by varying the fluences from 1 × 1014 to 7 × 1015 ions per cm2 has been investigated experimentally and using a simulation by stopping and range of ions in matter (SRIM). The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results indicate that the Li1+ ions have been incorporated at Zn2+ sites, which forms LiZn acceptors in the implanted NRs. The structural disorder and the number of oxygen vacancies in the implanted ZnO NRs increase drastically with an increase in the Li fluence as indicated by the X-ray diffractometry and Raman scattering analyses. Both the formation of acceptors and implantation-induced defects make the Li-implanted NRs electrically highly resistive. The yellow-orange photoluminescence (PL) emission of the as-grown ZnO NRs has evolved into green emission in the implanted NRs. A suppression of the green PL at higher fluences is possibly due to an apparent decrease in the zinc vacancy concentration. The SRIM results explain the quantitative energy loss, the distributions of the implanted Li ions and the point defects along the target ZnO NRs. The consistency between the experimental and theoretical simulations validates our analyses on the formation and evolution of various point defects in highly resistive Li-implanted ZnO NRs.

Abstract
Biomass and biowastes stand as sustainable and cost-effective environmentally benign alternative feedstock. Chitosan is a biocompatible, bioactive, and biodegradable biopolymer derived from chitin to achieve eight aspects out of the 12 green chemistry principles. Chitosan got significant attention in several fields including chemical analysis, in addition to chemical functionally, which enabled its use as adsorbent and its structural crosslinking using various crosslinkers. The physicochemical, technological, and optical properties of chitosan have been extensively exploited in analysis. Mainly, deacetylation degree and molecular weight are controlling its properties and hence controlling its functions. This review presents a structure, properties, and functions relationships of chitosan. It also aims to provide an overview of the different functions that chitosan can serve in each analytical technique such as supporting matrix, catalyst…etc. The contribution of chitosan in improving the ecological performance is discussed in each technique.

Abstract
It is pivotal to precisely detect food preservatives to ascertain food quality and safety. In this work, we report the sensitive electrochemical detection of widely used cytotoxic food preservative tert-butylhydroquinone (TBHQ). A novel nanocomposite was sonochemically prepared by embedding ternary metal oxide (TMO) comprising ZnO, CuO, and MgO in β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) functionalized carbon black (CB). The properties of the prepared nanocomposite were evaluated by employing multiple characterization methods. The nanocomposite fabricated on a screen printed carbon electrode exhibited exceptional electrocatalytic activity towards TBHQ detection, evident from the resultant very low detection limit of 1 nM and high sensitivity of 22.67 μA μM-1 cm-2. Moreover, the developed TBHQ sensor evinced all the important traits of a good electrochemical sensor including excellent selectivity, stability, reproducibility, and repeatability. Furthermore, for validating practical feasibility of TBHQ detection, we successfully determined this food additive in edible oils.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to fabricate an electrochemical sensor for the detection of methotrexate and folic acid based on a screen-printed graphite electrode (SPGE) modified with prepared iron oxide (Fe3O4)/polypyrrole (ppy)/Palladium (Pd) nanocomposite. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) techniques were employed to characterize the Fe3O4/ppy/Pd nanocomposite. The produced modifier was used to induce a remarkable electrocatalytic impact relative to the oxidation of methotrexate, which caused the potential peak shift to a less positive amount (from 800 mV to about 500 mV) and improved the peak current (from 5.3 μA to about 16 μA). Methotrexate peak current was linearly dependent on its concentration from 0.03100.0 μM and the limit of detection (LOD) was estimated at 7.0 nM. The methotrexate and folic acid were co-detected by the proposed sensor. The experimental results indicated that the oxidation peaks of methotrexate and folic acid were separated about 200 mV in phosphate buffer solution (PBS) at pH 7.0. Fe3O4/ppy/Pd/SPGE was successfully able to detect methotrexate and folic acid in pharmaceutical and biological samples with excellent recovery.

Abstract
Abstract
Electrolyte-gated transistor (EGT)-based biosensors are created with nanomaterials to harness the advantages of miniaturization and excellent sensing performance. A cholesterol EGT biosensor based on iron oxide (Fe2O3) nanoparticles decorated ZnO nanorods is proposed here. ZnO nanorods are directly grown on the seeded channel using a hydrothermal method, keeping in mind the stability of nanorods on the channel during biosensor measurements in an electrolyte. Most importantly, ZnO nanorods can be effectively grown and modified with Fe2O3 nanoparticles to enhance stability, surface roughness, and performance. The cholesterol oxidase (ChOx) enzyme is immobilized over Fe2O3 nanoparticles decorated ZnO nanorods for cholesterol detection. With cholesterol addition in buffer solution, the electro-oxidation of cholesterol on enzyme immobilized surface led to increased the biosensor’s current response. The cholesterol EGT biosensor detected cholesterol in wide-linear range (i.e., 0.1 to 60.0 mM) with high sensitivity (37.34 µA/mMcm2) compared to conventional electrochemical sensors. Furthermore, we obtained excellent selectivity, fabrication reproducibility, long-term storage stability, and practical applicability in real serum samples. The demonstrated EGT biosensor can be extended with changing enzymes or nanomaterials or hybrid nanomaterials for specific analyte detection.

Abstract
Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a wide bandgap semiconductor material that has been widely explored for countless applications, including in biosensing. Among its interesting properties, its remarkable photoluminescence (PL), which typically exhibits an intense signal at room temperature (RT), arises as an extremely appealing alternative transduction approach due to the high sensitivity of its surface properties, providing high sensitivity and selectivity to the sensors relying on luminescence output. Therefore, even though not widely explored, in recent years some studies have been devoted to the use of the PL features of ZnO as an optical transducer for detection and quantification of specific analytes. Hence, in the present paper, we revised the works that have been published in the last few years concerning the use of ZnO nanostructures as the transducer element in different types of PL-based biosensors, namely enzymatic and immunosensors, towards the detection of analytes relevant for health and environment, like antibiotics, glucose, bacteria, virus or even tumor biomarkers. A comprehensive discussion on the possible physical mechanisms that rule the optical sensing response is also provided, as well as a warning regarding the effect that the buffer solution may play on the sensing experiments, as it was seen that the use of phosphate-containing solutions significantly affects the stability of the ZnO nanostructures, which may conduct to misleading interpretations of the sensing results and unreliable conclusions.

Abstract
We developed a novel hydroxylamine sensor through the surface modification of screen-printed electrode (SPE) with NiCo2O4 nanoparticles/reduced graphene oxide (RGO) nanocomposite (NiCo2O4/RGO/SPE). We assessed the electrochemical response of hydroxylamine on the as-fabricated sensor, confirming the high electrocatalytic impact of hydroxylamine oxidation. The electrode produced sensitively responded to hydroxylamine under optimized conditions, with a low limit of detection (2.0 nM) and broad linear dynamic range (0.007–385.0 µM). The presence of NiCo2O4 combined with the modification of RGO resulted in sensitive detection and signal amplification of hydroxylamine oxidation. The proposed sensor was used to determine the existence of hydroxylamine in water samples.

Abstract
Nanozymes have enzyme-like characteristics and nanozyme-based electrochemical sensors have been widely studied for biomarker detection. In this work, cuprous oxide-modified reduced graphene oxide (Cu2O-rGO) nanozyme was prepared by simultaneous reduction of copper chloride and graphene oxide. This Cu2O-rGO nanozyme displayed an outstanding electrocatalytic activity to glucose oxidation and was used as the modified material of a glassy carbon electrode to fabricate an electrochemical ratiometric biosensor for glycated albumin (GA) detection. In this ratiometric biosensor, methylene blue-labeled DNA tripods (MB-tDNA) were adsorbed on the Cu2O-rGO/GCE surface to form a bioinspired electrode (MB-tDNA/Cu2O-rGO/GCE), in which the catalytic sites of Cu2O-rGO were covered by MB-tDNA. In the presence of target GA, GA could be identified by the aptamer sequence contained in MB-tDNA, and a MB-tDNA/GA complex was formed and released into the solution, so the reduced current of MB-tDNA was decreased. Simultaneously, the oxidized current of the outer added glucose was increased since more catalytic sites of Cu2O-rGO nanozyme on the substrate electrode surface were exposed. The ratio of the peak currents of glucose oxidation and methylene blue reduction (IGlu/IMB) was used to monitor the GA level and ultimately improve the accuracy of the method. The electrochemical sensor showed a low detection limit of 0.007 μg mL-1 and a wide linear range from 0.02 to 1500 μg mL-1. The proposed sensor was also successfully used to measure the GA expression level in the blood serum of a diabetic mouse model.

Abstract
A bacteria-capturing platform is a critical function of accurate, quantitative, and sensitive identification of bacterial pathogens for potential usage in the detection of foodborne diseases. Despite the development of various nanostructures and their surface chemical modification strategies, relative to the principal physical contact propagation of bacterial infections, mechanically robust and nanostructured platforms that are available to capture bacteria remain a significant problem. Here, a three-dimensional (3D) hierarchically structured polyaniline nanoweb film is developed for the efficient capture of bacterial pathogens by hand-touching. This unique nanostructure ensures sufficient mechanical resistance when exposed to compression and shear forces and facilitates the 3D interfacial interactions between bacterial extracellular organelles and polyaniline surfaces. The bacterial pathogens (Escherichia coli O157:H7, Salmonella enteritidis, and Staphylococcus aureus) are efficiently captured through finger-touching, as verified by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis. Moreover, the real-time PCR results of finger-touched cells on a 3D nanoweb film show a highly sensitive detection of bacteria, which is similar to those of the real-time PCR using cultured cells without the capturing step without any interfering of fluorescence signal and structural deformation during thermal cycling.

Abstract
Ultraviolet (UV) sensors offer significant advantages in human health protection and environmental pollution monitoring. Amongst various materials for UV sensors, the zinc oxide (ZnO) nanostructure is considered as one of the most promising candidates due to its incredible electrical, optical, biomedical, energetic and preparing properties. Compared to other fabricating techniques, hydrothermal synthesis has been proven to show special advantages such as economic cost, low-temperature process and excellent and high-yield production. Here, we summarize the latest progress in research about the hydrothermal synthesis of ZnO nanostructures for UV sensing. We particularly focus on the selective hydrothermal processes and reveal the effect of key factors/parameters on ZnO architectures, such as the laser power source, temperature, growth time, precursor, seeding solution and bases. Furthermore, ZnO hydrothermal nanostructures for UV applications as well as their mechanisms are also summarized. This review will therefore enlighten future ideas of low-temperature and low-cost ZnO-based UV sensors.

Abstract
The use of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) is expected to increase soil fertility, crop productivity, and food quality. However, the potential effects of ZnO NP utilization should be deeply understood. This review highlights the behavior of ZnO NPs in soil and their interactions with the soil components. The review discusses the potential effects of ZnO NPs on plants and their mechanisms of action on plants and how these mechanisms are related to their physicochemical properties. The impact of current applications of ZnO NPs in the food industry is also discussed. Based on the literature reviewed, soil properties play a vital role in dispersing, aggregation, stability, bioavailability, and transport of ZnO NPs and their release into the soil. The transfer of ZnO NPs into the soil can affect the soil components, and subsequently, the structure of plants. The toxic effects of ZnO NPs on plants and microbes are caused by various mechanisms, mainly through the generation of reactive oxygen species, lysosomal destabilization, DNA damage, and the reduction of oxidative stress through direct penetration/liberation of Zn2+ ions in plant/microbe cells. The integration of ZnO NPs in food processing improves the properties of the relative ZnO NP-based nano-sensing, active packing, and food/feed bioactive ingredients delivery systems, leading to better food quality and safety. The unregulated/unsafe discharge concentrations of ZnO NPs into the soil, edible plant tissues, and processed foods raise environmental/safety concerns and adverse effects. Therefore, the safety issues related to ZnO NP applications in the soil, plants, and food are also discussed.

Abstract
Use ofin situcombined x-ray diffraction and x-ray absorption spectroscopy for the study of the thermal decomposition of zinc peroxide to zinc oxide is reported here. Comparison of data extracted from both x-ray diffraction (XRD) and x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) with thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) enabled us to follow the nature of the conversion of ZnO2to ZnO. A temperature range between 230 °C and 350 °C appears to show that a very poorly crystalline ZnO is formed prior to the formation of an ordered ZnO material. Both the decrease in white line intensity in the Zn K-edge XANES and resulting lower coordination numbers estimated from analysis of the Zn K-edge data of ZnO heated at 500 °C, in comparison to bulk ZnO, suggest that the ZnO produced by this method has significant defects in the system.

Abstract
Nanobiosensors are convenient, practical, and sensitive analyzers that detect chemical and biological agents and convert the results into meaningful data between a biologically active molecule and a recognition element immobilized on the surface of the signal transducer by a physicochemical detector. Due to their fast, accurate and reliable operating characteristics, nanobiosensors are widely used in clinical and nonclinical applications, bedside testing, medical textile industry, environmental monitoring, food safety, etc. They play an important role in such critical applications. Therefore, the design of the biosensing interface is essential in determining the performance of the nanobiosensor. The unique chemical and physical properties of nanomaterials have paved the way for new and improved sensing devices in biosensors. The growing demand for devices with improved sensing and selectivity capability, short response time, lower limit of detection, and low cost causes novel investigations on nanobiomaterials to be used as biosensor scaffolds. Among all other nanomaterials, studies on developing nanobiosensors based on metal oxide nanostructures, graphene and its derivatives, carbon nanotubes, and the widespread use of these nanomaterials as a hybrid structure have recently attracted attention. Nanohybrid structures created by combining these nanostructures will directly meet the future biosensors' needs with their high electrocatalytic activities. This review addressed the recent developments on these nanomaterials and their derivatives, and their use as biosensor scaffolds. We reviewed these popular nanomaterials by evaluating them with comparative studies, tables, and charts.

Abstract
Detection of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has an impact on DNA analysis in liquid biopsies. However, current strategies to detect cfDNA have limitations that should be overcome, such as having low sensitivity and requiring much time and a specialized instrument. Thus, non-invasive and rapid detection tools are needed for disease prevention and early-stage treatment. Here we developed a device having a microheater integrated with zinc oxide nanowires (microheater-ZnO-NWs) to detect target single-stranded DNAs (ssDNAs) based on DNA probe hybridization. We confirmed experimentally that our device realizedin-situannealed DNA probes by which we subsequently detected target ssDNAs. We envision that this device can be utilized for fundamental studies related to nanobiodevice-based DNA detection.

Abstract
Zinc oxide thin films are fabricated by controlled oxidation of sputtered zinc metal films on a hotplate in air at temperatures between 250 and 450 °C. The nanocrystalline films possess high relative densities and show preferential growth in (100) orientation. Integration in thin-film transistors reveals moderate charge carrier mobilities as high as 0.2 cm2 V-1 s-1 . The semiconducting properties depend on the calcination temperature, whereby the best performance is achieved at 450 °C. The defect structure of the thin ZnO film can be tracked by Doppler-broadening positron annihilation spectroscopy as well as positron lifetime studies. Comparably long positron lifetimes suggest interaction of zinc vacancies (VZn ) with one or more oxygen vacancies (VO ) in larger structural entities. Such VO -VZn defect clusters act as shallow acceptors, and thus, reduce the overall electron conductivity of the film. The concentration of these defect clusters decreases at higher calcination temperatures as indicated by changes in the S and W parameters. Such zinc oxide films obtained by conversion of metallic zinc can also be used as seed layers for solution deposition of zinc oxide nanowires employing a mild microwave-assisted process. The functionality of the obtained nanowire arrays is tested in a UV sensor device. The best results with respect to sensor sensitivity are achieved with thinner seed layers for device construction.

Abstract
Copper-doped zinc oxide nanoparticles (NPs) CuxZn1-xO (x = 0, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, and 0.04) were synthesized via a sol-gel process and used as an active electrode material to fabricate a non-enzymatic electrochemical sensor for the detection of glucose. Their structure, composition, and chemical properties were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopies, and zeta potential measurements. The electrochemical characterization of the sensors was studied using cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). Cu doping was shown to improve the electrocatalytic activity for the oxidation of glucose, which resulted from the accelerated electron transfer and greatly improved electrochemical conductivity. The experimental conditions for the detection of glucose were optimized: a linear dependence between the glucose concentration and current intensity was established in the range from 1 nM to 100 μM with a limit of detection of 0.7 nM. The proposed sensor exhibited high selectivity for glucose in the presence of various interfering species. The developed sensor was also successfully tested for the detection of glucose in human serum samples.

Abstract
One of the main problems faced by libraries, archives and collectors is the mold degradation of the paper-based documents, books, artworks etc. Microfungi (molds) emerge in regular storage conditions of such items (humidity, usually over 50%, and temperatures under 21 °C). If the removal of the visible mycelium is relatively easy, there is always the problem of the subsequent appearance of mold as the spores remain trapped in the cellulosic, fibrillary texture, which acts as a net. Moreover, due to improper hand hygiene bacteria contamination, old books could represent a source of biohazard, being colonized with human pathogens. An easy and accessible method of decontamination, which could offer long term protection is therefore needed. Here, we present a facile use of the ZnO nanopowders as antimicrobial agents, suitable for cellulose-based products, conferring an extended antibacterial and anti-microfungal effect. The proposed method does not adversely impact on the quality of the cellulose documents and could be efficiently used for biodegradation protection.
