Article Abstract

For monitoring of the residual of parathion pesticide in food, herein, a sensitive and reliable electrochemical immunosensor based on cross-linked polyvinyl alcohol/citric acid nanofiber membrane (PVA/CA NFM) and horseradish peroxidase labeled anti-parathion nanobody was constructed. Firstly, the cross-linked PVA/CA NFM with extra-high surface area and uniform morphology was prepared and characterized. Then, the immunosensor was assembled and its analytical performances were evaluated. It exhibited high specificity and sensitivity to parathion with the liner range and limit of detection being 0.01-100 ng/mL and 2.26 pg/mL, respectively. Moreover, the biosensor kept almost 75% of its initial activity after regenerating 4 times, and remained 85% after 9 weeks of storage. Finally, the average recoveries from food samples were 96.20%-114.61% with the coefficient of variation being 1.06%-5.28%, which was correlate well with UPLC (R = 0.9964). Therefore, the sensor was demonstrated to be a feasible alternative for sensitive assay of parathion.

Human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2), a key biomarker in breast cancer, is critical for early diagnosis and prognosis evaluation. In this work, a label-free electrochemical immunosensor was developed for biomarker HER-2 detection based on PtSnCoNi hierarchical dendritic alloyed nanowires (PtSnCoNi HDNWs). These nanowires were synthesized via a co-reduction-triggered anisotropic growth strategy in oleylamine.

Background: Of the mycotoxins, aflatoxin is the most significant. The detection of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is crucial for ensuring food safety, as this highly carcinogenic toxin readily contaminates crops such as grains and nuts, and timely detection can effectively prevent associated health risks. The selection of luminophores is of paramount importance in the detection of ECL (electrochemiluminescence).

An advanced electrochemical immunosensor platform was designed for the precise quantification of cortisol. The sensor design integrates graphene oxide-silicon carbide (GO-SiC) nanocomposites onto a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). Denatured bovine serum albumin (d-BSA) and an anti-cortisol antibody were immobilized on the GO-SiC/GCE surface as part of the immunosensor's design.

The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 has posed significant global health challenges. The nucleocapsid protein (N-protein) is a structural part of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and an important immunogenic target of specific antibodies, which are developed in the organism during the infection by this virus. Artificially designed specific (monoclonal and polyclonal) antibodies are also used for therapeutic and bioanalytical purposes, therefore, the assessment and characterization of newly designed antibodies is an important analytical issue.

An electrochemical immunosensor was successfully developed for evaluating traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)-induced cardiac toxicity by immobilizing heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (HFABP)-specific antibodies on an electrode surface modified with chitosan (CS)-functionalized metal-organic framework ZIF-8 and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). Leveraging the excellent biocompatibility of AuNPs, the excellent stability and high surface area of ZIF-8, along with the strong specific recognition capability of HFABP antibodies, the sensor demonstrated superior performance. Under optimized experimental conditions, it achieved an ultra-low detection limit of 7.
