Article Abstract

This paper describes the development of a simple voltammetric biosensor for the stereoselective discrimination of myo-inositol (myo-Ins) and D-chiro-inositol (D-chiro-Ins) by means of bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorption onto a multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) graphite screen-printed electrode (MWCNT-GSPE), previously functionalized by the electropolymerization of methylene blue (MB). After a morphological characterization, the enantioselective biosensor platform was electrochemically characterized after each modification step by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results show that the binding affinity between myo-Ins and BSA was higher than that between D-chiro-Ins and BSA, confirming the different interactions exhibited by the novel BSA/MB/MWCNT/GSPE platform towards the two diastereoisomers. The biosensor showed a linear response towards both stereoisomers in the range of 2-100 μM, with LODs of 0.5 and 1 μM for myo-Ins and D-chiro-Ins, respectively. Moreover, a stereoselectivity coefficient α of 1.6 was found, with association constants of 0.90 and 0.79, for the two stereoisomers, respectively. Lastly, the proposed biosensor allowed for the determination of the stereoisomeric composition of myo-/D-chiro-Ins mixtures in commercial pharmaceutical preparations, and thus, it is expected to be successfully applied in the chiral analysis of pharmaceuticals and illicit drugs of forensic interest.

Despite the promise of electrochemical biosensors in amplified nucleic acid diagnostics, existing high-sensitivity platforms often rely on a multilayer surface assembly and cascade amplification confined to the electrode interface. These stepwise strategies suffer from inefficient enzyme activity, poor mass transport, and inconsistent probe orientation, which compromise the amplification efficiency, reproducibility, and practical applicability. To address these limitations, we report a programmable dual-phase electrochemical biosensing system that decouples amplification from signal transduction.

Microneedle-based electrochemical sensors (MES) are developed as interface systems between the sensor and interstitial fluid (ISF), allowing the transdermal monitoring of analytes with clinical value. However, the widespread adoption of MES platforms to enable advances in devices for health monitoring is still a challenge. Herein, we propose an affordable and versatile wearable patch based on 3D-printed microneedle arrays to facilitate the development of electrochemical sensors.

A portable electrochemical sensor for simultaneous voltammetric determination of acetylcholine (Ach), serotonin (5-HT) and dopamine (DA) using magnetic multi-walled carbon nanotubes-decorated ferroferric oxide-Pt@Au nanoparticles (FM-Pt@AuNPs) composite nanozyme was developed. The application of the nanozyme perfectly solved the problem of the weak electroactivity of Ach and the overlapping electrochemical signal of 5-HT and DA. Benefiting from superior horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-like activity and huge specific surface area of the FM-Pt@AuNPs, the proposed sensor enabled to quantify ACh, 5-HT, and DA at the potential of + 0.
