Article Abstract
Peptides have great potential in the design and fabrication of biosensors because of their high specificity, multifunctionality, and relatively low cost. In this paper, we report an electrochemical biosensor leveraging multifunctional peptides and silver nanoparticles for integrated target recognition, self-assembly, and signal output. As a proof of concept, we chose granzyme B (GrB) as a model target. Specifically, when the target is present, the recognition peptide is cleaved, and the assembly peptide then anchors, exposing a positively charged sequence that attracts silver nanoparticles, thereby generating an electrochemical signal. The biosensor exhibits favorable analytical performance, with a linear detection range of 1 to 10000 fM and a remarkably low limit of detection (LOD) of 0.42 fM. Moreover, the biosensor has been successfully applied to the analysis of clinical samples, confirming its potential for clinical detection and application.

This study explores the use of plant-derived polysaccharides to develop bio-based films for food-packaging applications. A film-forming solution composed of Prosopis nigra biopolymer (PN-B), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), and glycerol was optimized by central composite design (CCD), resulting in two formulations: P1 and P11. The films were subsequently functionalized with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) synthesized via chemical and biological routes.

Solar-driven desalination has emerged as a sustainable and efficient solution for addressing global water scarcity, especially beneficial in remote, off-grid, and disaster-affected regions. Among emerging technologies, photothermal membrane distillation (PMD) stands out due to its effective solar-energy conversion, scalability, and simplicity. Here, we report a hybrid PMD membrane fabricated by electrospinning MXene (TiCT) nanosheets integrated with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) onto a poly(vinylidene fluoride--hexafluoropropylene) (PH) substrate.

Two forms of nanocellulose-based sensing materials were developed for heavy metal ions (HMIs) detection: all-solid-state and suspension. In these materials, cellulose nanofibers (CNF), isolated from cellulose bleached pulp via homogenization, were employed as a support matrix. For all-solid-state optodes development free-base 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) and zinc-porphyrin derivative (ZnPC) were deposited on CNF support.

To achieve non-invasive early diagnosis and severity monitoring of periodontal disease, this study employed silver nanoparticles as a surface-enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) substrate for the detection and analysis of salivary SERS spectra from a control group (periodontal health group) and groups with periodontal disease of varying severities (including gingivitis, as well as mild, moderate, and severe periodontitis). The results demonstrated significant differences in salivary SERS spectra between the control group and the gingivitis group, between the control group and the mild periodontitis group, and between the control group and groups with periodontal disease of different severities. Subsequently, based on the dual screening criteria of Variable Importance in Projection (VIP) ≥ 1 and P < 0.
