A promising electrochemical sensor for simultaneous determination of dopamine (DA), uric acid (UA) and ascorbic acid (AA) was fabricated based on the stacked graphene platelet nanofibers (SGNF)/ionic liquid (IL)/chitosan (CS) modified electrode. The SGNF/IL/CS modified electrode possessed excellent electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidation of DA, UA and AA with obvious reduction of over-potential and increased peak current, and the separations of oxidation peak potentials of DA-UA, DA-AA, and UA-AA were of 151, 213 and 364 mV, respectively. Under the optimum conditions, the linear range for the detection of DA, UA and AA were 0.05-240, 0.12-260, and 30-350 μM with the lowest detection limits of 0.05, 0.10 and 14.8 μM for DA, UA and AA, respectively. In addition, the electrochemical sensor showed high sensitivity, excellent selectivity, reproducibility and long-term stability.

Economically viable and biologically compatible amino acids demonstrate significant potential as electrolyte microstructure modifiers in aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs). Compared to polar amino acids, nonpolar amino acids simultaneously own zincophilicity and hydrophobicity, showing great potential in the industrial application of AZIBs. However, nonpolar amino acids have been comparatively understudied in existing research investigations.

Achieving high capacitance while maintaining rapid charge transport and structural stability remains a major challenge in the design of battery-type supercapacitor electrodes. Herein, a molecularly engineered strategy is presented for constructing hierarchical hybrid electrodes by integrating petal-like NiCu-LDH nanosheets onto 3D HBC-x (x = H, F, OMe)-functionalized CNT paper via a one-step hydrothermal process. The incorporation of HBC effectively mitigates CNT agglomeration and constructs an interconnected conductive framework that enhances charge transport, shortens ion diffusion paths, and reduces internal resistance.

Electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) methods have been widely used in clinical diagnosis. Although ECL peptide-based biosensors continue to grow with good sensitivity and signal flexibility, little emphasis has been placed on the effect of the peptide sequence on ECL sensitivity. We herein studied the nuanced effects of different peptide sequences on the analytical performance of ECL peptide-based biosensors for matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) assay, in which [(pbz)Ir(DMSO)Cl] (pbz = 3-(2-pyridyl)benzoic acid) was used as the ECL emitter while a specific peptide was used as the molecular recognition element.

In this study, a one-pot hydrothermal synthesis method was used to synthesize a novel gold-yttrium trimesic acid metal-organic framework (Au-Y-TMA MOF), demonstrating significant improvements over conventional single-metal MOFs, that is, yttrium trimesic acid (Y-TMA), in both supercapacitor applications and electrochemical antibiotic detection. The X-ray diffraction patterns of Au-Y-TMA confirmed the presence and impact of Au in the Y-TMA matrix, while field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) images revealed a heterogeneous combination of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and Y-TMA, suggesting a nonuniform distribution and possible interaction. The developed half-cell supercapacitor exhibited a remarkable capacitance value of 1836 F/g at a current density of 5 A/g by galvanostatic charging-discharging (GCD) measurement.

Fast Scan Cyclic Voltammetry (FSCV) is a widely used electrochemical technique to detect rapid extracellular dopamine transients . It employs carbon fiber microelectrodes (CFMEs), but conventional 7 µm diameter CFMEs often suffer from limited mechanical durability and reduced lifespan, hindering their use in chronic monitoring. To improve mechanical robustness and long-term functionality, we fabricated 30 µm diameter CFMEs and modified their geometry via electrochemical etching to form cone-shaped tips.
