Abstract
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are good candidates for donor material in energy transfer systems and can easily be functionalized with various ligands on the surface with Au-S bonding. Cyclodextrin (CD) forms inclusion complexes with fluorophores due to its unique structure for host-guest interaction. In this study, we fabricated βCD-functionalized AuNPs using different lengths of thiol ligands and recognized cholesterol to confirm the energy-transfer-based turn-on fluorescence mechanism. AuNP-βCD conjugated with various thiol ligands and quenched the fluorescein (Fl) dye, forming βCD-Fl inclusion complexes. As the distance between AuNPs and βCD decreased, the quenching efficiency became higher. The quenched fluorescence was recovered when the cholesterol replaced the Fl because of the stronger binding affinity of the cholesterol with βCD. The efficiency of cholesterol recognition was also affected by the energy transfer effect because the shorter βCD ligand had a higher fluorescence recovery. Furthermore, we fabricated a liposome with cholesterol embedded in the lipid bilayer membrane to mimic the cholesterol coexisting with lipids in human serum. These cellular cholesterols accelerated the replacement of the Fl molecules, resulting in a fluorescence recovery higher than that of pure lipid. These discoveries are expected to give guidance towards cholesterol sensors or energy-transfer-based biosensors using AuNPs.

Abstract
Precise identification of cholesterol levels is crucial for the early diagnosis of cardiovascular risk factors. This paper presents a novel approach for cholesterol detection that circumvents the reliance on enzymatic processes. Leveraging the unique properties of advanced materials and electrochemical principles, our non-enzymatic approach demonstrates enhanced sensitivity, specificity, and limit of detection in cholesterol analysis. A non-enzymatic electrochemical biosensor for Cholesterol, employing a nanohybrid comprising Cu2O nanoparticles decorated with MoS2, is presented. The cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), and amperometry techniques were employed to investigate the electrochemical behaviour of the glassy carbon electrode modified with the Cu2O/MoS2nanohybrid. The modified electrode exhibited an excellent sensitivity of 111.74μAμM-1cm-2through the CV method and showcased a low detection limit of 2.18μM and an expansive linear range spanning 0.1-180μM when employing the DPV method. The electrode also showed good selectivity to various interfering components in 0.1 M NaOH and a satisfied stability of about 15 days at room temperature. The study demonstrates the potential for broader applications in clinical diagnostics and monitoring cardiovascular health, paving the way for a paradigm shift in cholesterol detection methodologies and offering a more efficient and cost-effective alternative to traditional enzymatic assays.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis conditions are often assessed in the clinic by measuring blood viscosity, blood flow, and blood lesion levels. In alignment with precision medicine, it is essential to develop convenient and noninvasive approaches for atherosclerosis diagnostics. Herein, an integrated electrochemical sensor was successfully demonstrated for simultaneously detecting cholesterol, transferrin, and K+ in sweat, all biomarker indicators of atherosclerosis. The sensing substrate was based on carbon quantum dots integrated within multiwalled carbon nanotubes, creating a hybrid framework with low electron transfer resistance and highly efficient electron transfer rate, yielding a highly electrochemical active platform for ultrasensitive detection of trace sweat biomarkers. To ensure specificity to corresponding targets, the sensing mechanisms were based on molecular recognition reactions of cholesterol and β-cyclodextrin, transferrin and molecular cavities, and K+ and ion-selective permeation membrane. Moreover, the integrated nonenzymatic sensor exhibited excellent long-term stability. Furthermore, the practical utility of the sensor was successfully demonstrated by the simultaneous detection of three atherosclerosis biomarkers in sweat from volunteers who underwent predesigned daily activities. The sensor shows promise for convenient indexing of atherosclerosis conditions in a noninvasive way.

Abstract
Using radix pueraria flavonoids (RPFs) as a reducing and stabilizing agent, we report a simple, cost-effective, and ecologically friendly green synthesis technique for gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in the present study. Ultraviolet-visible (UV) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) investigations were used to characterize the AuNPs. The results demonstrated that the produced AuNPs were nearly spherical and that their particle sizes had a mean diameter of 4.85 ± 0.75 nm. The "Green" AuNPs, exhibiting remarkable peroxidase-like activity and Michaelis-Menten kinetics with high affinity for H2O2 and 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB), were effectively applied to the fabrication of a sensitive nonenzymatic enhanced electrochemical sensor for the detection of cholesterol (Cho). Under optimum circumstances, it was possible to establish two linear ranges of 1-100 and 250-5000 μmol/L with a detection limit of 0.259 μmol/L (signal/noise ratio (S/N) = 3). The suggested sensor was utilized with satisfactory findings to determine the amount of Cho in food samples.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death globally. An effective strategy to mitigate the burden of CVDs has been to monitor patients’ biomedical variables during daily activities with wearable technology. Nowadays, technological advance has contributed to wearables technology by reducing the size of the devices, improving the accuracy of sensing biomedical variables to be devices with relatively low energy consumption that can manage security and privacy of the patient’s medical information, have adaptability to any data storage system, and have reasonable costs with regard to the traditional scheme where the patient must go to a hospital for an electrocardiogram, thus contributing a serious option in diagnosis and treatment of CVDs. In this work, we review commercial and noncommercial wearable devices used to monitor CVD biomedical variables. Our main findings revealed that commercial wearables usually include smart wristbands, patches, and smartwatches, and they generally monitor variables such as heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, and electrocardiogram data. Noncommercial wearables focus on monitoring electrocardiogram and photoplethysmography data, and they mostly include accelerometers and smartwatches for detecting atrial fibrillation and heart failure. However, using wearable devices without healthy personal habits will cause disappointing results in the patient’s health.

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
The rapid and accurate determination of the dopamine (neurotransmitter) and cholesterol level in bio-fluids is significant because they are crucial bioanalytes for several lethal diseases, which require early diagnosis. The level of DA in the brain is modulated by the dopamine active transporter (DAT), and is influenced by cholesterol levels in the lipid membrane environment. Accordingly, electrochemical biosensors offer rapid and accurate detection and exhibit unique features such as low detection limits even with reduced volumes of analyte, affordability, simple handling, portability and versatility, making them appropriate to deal with augmented challenges in current clinical and point-of-care diagnostics for the determination of dopamine (DA) and cholesterol. This feature article focuses on the development of ultrasensitive electrochemical biosensors for the detection of cholesterol and DA for real-time and onsite applications that can detect targeted analytes with reduced volumes and sub-picomolar concentrations with quick response times. Furthermore, the development of ultrasensitive biosensors via cost-effective, simple fabrication procedures, displaying high sensitivity, selectivity, reliability and good stability is significant in the impending era of electrochemical biosensing. Herein, we emphasize on recent advanced nanomaterials used for the ultrasensitive detection of DA and cholesterol and discuss in depth their electrochemical activities towards ultrasensitive responses. Key points describing future perspectives and the challenges during detection with their probable solutions are discussed, and the current market is also surveyed. Further, a comprehensive review of the literature indicates that there is room for improvement in the miniaturization of cholesterol and dopamine biosensors for lab-on-chip devices and overcoming the current technical limitations to facilitate full utilization by patients at home.
