Abstract
The current research presents novel sensors based on laccase-like mimetics for the detection of dopamine (DA). The synthesized laccase-like nanozymes (nAuCu, nPtCu, nCuMnCo, and nCoCuCe) were prepared by a simple hydrothermal method and exhibited an attractive catalytic activity toward DA. The developed amperometric sensors based on laccase nanozymes (nAuCu and nPtCu) are more stable, selective, and revealed a higher sensitivity (6.5-fold than the biosensor based on the natural fungal laccase from Trametes zonata). The amperometric sensors were obtained by modification of the glassy carbon electrodes (GCEs) with AuPt nanoparticles. Functionalization of the electrode surface by AuPt NPs resulted in increased catalytic activity of the laccase-like layer and higher sensitivity. Among studied configurations, the sensor containing nAuCu and nAuPt possesses a wide linear range for dopamine detection (10-170 μM), the lowest limit of detection (20 nM), and the highest sensitivity (10 650 ± 8.3 A M-1 m-2) at a low applied potential (+0.2 V versus Ag/AgCl). The proposed simple and cost-effective sensor electrode was used for the determination of DA in pharmaceuticals.

Abstract
Neuromorphic computing is a potential approach for imitating massive parallel processing capabilities of a bio-synapse. To date, memristors have emerged as the most appropriate device for designing artificial synapses for this purpose due to their excellent analog switching capacities with high endurance and retention. However, to build an operational neuromorphic platform capable of processing high-density information, memristive synapses with nanoscale footprint are important, albeit with device size scaled down, retaining analog plasticity and low power requirement often become a challenge. This paper demonstrates site-selective self-assembly of Au nanoparticles on a patterned TiOx layer formed as a result of ion-induced self-organization, resulting in site-specific resistive switching and emulation of bio-synaptic behavior (e.g., potentiation, depression, spike rate-dependent and spike timing-dependent plasticity, paired pulse facilitation, and post tetanic potentiation) at nanoscale. The use of local probe-based methods enables nanoscale probing on the anisotropic films. With the help of various microscopic and spectroscopic analytical tools, the observed results are attributed to defect migration and self-assembly of implanted Au atoms on self-organized TiOx surfaces. By leveraging the site-selective evolution of gold-nanostructures, the functionalized TiOx surface holds significant potential in a multitude of fields for developing cutting-edge neuromorphic computing platforms and Au-based biosensors with high-density integration.

Abstract
Neurotransmitter analysis plays a pivotal role in diagnosing and managing neurodegenerative diseases, often characterized by disturbances in neurotransmitter systems. However, prevailing methods for quantifying neurotransmitters involve invasive procedures or require bulky imaging equipment, therefore restricting accessibility and posing potential risks to patients. The innovation of compact, in vivo instruments for neurotransmission analysis holds the potential to reshape disease management. This innovation can facilitate non-invasive and uninterrupted monitoring of neurotransmitter levels and their activity. Recent strides in microfabrication have led to the emergence of diminutive instruments that also find applicability in in vitro investigations. By harnessing the synergistic potential of microfluidics, micro-optics, and microelectronics, this nascent realm of research holds substantial promise. This review offers an overarching view of the current neurotransmitter sensing techniques, the advances towards in vitro microsensors tailored for monitoring neurotransmission, and the state-of-the-art fabrication techniques that can be used to fabricate those microsensors.

Abstract
A "turn-on" aptasensor for label-free and cell-free EpCAM detection was constructed by employing magnetic α-Fe2O3/Fe3O4@Au nanocomposites as a matrix for signal amplification and double-stranded complex (SH-DNA/Apt probes) immobilization through Au-S binding. α-Fe2O3/Fe3O4@Au could be efficiently assembled into uniform and stable self-assembly films via magnetic-induced self-assembly technique on a magnetic glassy carbon electrode (MGCE). The effectiveness of the platform for EpCAM detection was confirmed through differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). Under optimized conditions, the platform exhibited excellent specificity for EpCAM, and a strong linear correlation was observed between the current and the logarithm of EpCAM protein concentration in the range 1 pg/mL-1000 pg/mL (R2 = 0.9964), with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.27 pg/mL. Furthermore, the developed platform demonstrated good stability during a 14-day storage test, with fluctuations remaining below 93.33% of the initial current value. Promising results were obtained when detecting EpCAM in spiked serum samples, suggesting its potential as a point-of-care (POC) testing.

Abstract
Selenium nanoparticles (Se NPs) have a number of unique properties that determine the use of the resulting nanomaterials in various fields. The focus of this paper is the stabilization of Se NPs with cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC). Se NPs were obtained by chemical reduction in an aqueous medium. The influence of the concentration of precursors and synthesis conditions on the size of Se NPs and the process of micelle formation was established. Transmission electron microscopy was used to study the morphology of Se NPs. The influence of the pH of the medium and the concentration of ions in the sol on the stability of Se micelles was studied. According to the results of this study, the concentration of positively charged ions has a greater effect on the particle size in the positive Se NPs sol than in the negative Se NPs sol. The potential antibacterial and fungicidal properties of the samples were studied on Escherichia coli, Micrococcus luteus and Mucor. Concentrations of Se NPs stabilized with CTAC with potential bactericidal and fungicidal effects were discovered. Considering the revealed potential antimicrobial activity, the synthesized Se NPs-CTAC molecular complex can be further studied and applied in the development of veterinary drugs, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics.

Abstract
Trilobatin is a flavonoid that has wide application prospects due to its various pharmacological effects, such as anti-inflammation and anti-oxidation. In this work, a novel electrochemical sensor based on gold nanobipyramids (AuNBs) and L-cysteine (L-cys) was constructed for the sensitive and selective determination of trilobatin. The AuNBs, which were prepared by a seed-mediated growth method, had large specific surface areas and excellent electrical conductivity. A layer of L-cys film, which provided more active sites through the amino and hydroxyl groups, was modified on the surface of the AuNBs by electropolymerization. Significantly, the Au-S bond between the L-cys film and AuNBs could improve the stability of the sensor and it exhibited satisfactory electrocatalytic oxidation activity for trilobatin. Under optimized conditions, the sensor based on poly-L-cys/AuNBs/GCE was used to determine trilobatin by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). Two wide linear ranges between the current peak and the concentration of trilobatin were obtained in the range from 5 to 100 μM and 100 to 1000 μM, and the low detection limit (LOD) was up to 2.55 μM (S/N = 3). The sensor demonstrated desirable reproducibility, stability, and selectivity and was applied to detect real trilobatin samples extracted from Lithocarpus polystachyus Rehd.'s leaves, showing recoveries of 98.36%-104.96%, with satisfactory results.

Abstract
Eco-friendly chemical methods using FDA-approved Pluronic F127 (PLU) block copolymer have garnered much attention for simultaneously forming and stabilizing Au nanoparticles (AuNPs). Given the remarkable properties of AuNPs for usage in various fields, especially in biomedicine, we performed a systematic study to synthesize AuNP-PLU nanocomposites under optimized conditions using UV irradiation for accelerating the reaction. The use of UV irradiation at 254 nm resulted in several advantages over the control method conducted under ambient light (control). The AuNP-PLU-UV nanocomposite was produced six times faster, lasting 10 min, and exhibited lower size dispersion than the control. A set of experimental techniques was applied to determine the structure and morphology of the produced nanocomposites as affected by the UV irradiation. The MTT assay was conducted to estimate IC50 values of AuNP-PLU-UV in NIH 3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblasts, and the results suggest that the sample is more compatible with cells than control samples. Afterward, in vivo maternal and fetal toxicity assays were performed in rats to evaluate the effect of AuNP-PLU-UV formulation during pregnancy. Under the tested conditions, the treatment was found to be safe for the mother and fetus. As a proof of concept or application, the synthesized Au:PLU were tested as contrast agents with an X-ray computed tomography scan (X-ray CT).

Abstract
The CYP2C19*2 gene carriers and non-carriers are closely related to the dosage of clopidogrel. To correctly guide the use of clopidogrel and promote individualized therapy, an ultra-sensitive electrochemical biosensor was developed for the detection of CYP2C19*2 gene. The heterogeneous α-Fe2O3/Fe3O4 nanosheets were prepared via the hydrothermal-calcination process, and the preparation parameters were optimized. The average diameter and thickness of the nanosheets were approximately 150 nm and 53 nm, respectively; and the saturation magnetization was 80.2 emu/g. The α-Fe2O3/Fe3O4@Au nanosheets were prepared by sodium borohydride reduction method, and self-assembled to the electrode surface with magnetic field. Ultra-sensitive detection of CYP2C19*2 gene was realized through the recognition ability of strong single base mismatching of peptide nucleic acid and signal amplification effect of magnetic α-Fe2O3/Fe3O4@Au nanosheets. Under optimal detection conditions, the current had a good linear correlation with the negative logarithm of CYP2C19*2 gene concentration in the range 1 pM-1 nM, and the detection limit was 0.64 pM (S/N = 3). Meanwhile, the electrochemical signals of target DNA and incomplete complementary DNA were detected. The constructed biosensor exhibited good selectivity, reproducibility, and stability, providing a promising strategy for the detection of other gene mutations by electrochemical biosensors.
