A novel disposable ultrasensitive sensor based on nanosized ceria uniformly loaded carbon nanofiber nanoceramic film wrapped on pencil graphite rods for electrocatalytic

Research Abstract

For the first time, we introduce a novel disposable and ultrasensitive sensing electrode made up of nanosized ceria uniformly loaded carbon nanofibers (CeNPs@CNF) sol-gel nanoceramic film (CF) wrapped on eco-friendly and inexpensive pencil graphite rods (PGRs) to explore their electro-catalytic detection of the anticancer drug capmatinib (CMB). The as-prepared CeNPs@CNF hybrid nanocomposite was described by XRD, SEM, TEM, HRTEM, and EDX analysis. The CV study clearly demonstrated that, the disposable CeNPs@CNF-CF/PGRE sensor exhibited excellent redox activities in the ideal probe [Fe(CN)6]3-/4-. Due to the outstanding electrochemical properties, larger electrochemically active surface area, and tremendous electro-catalytic activity of CeNPs@CNF, the reduction current of CMB on the CeNPs@CNF-CF/PGRE sensor is considerably higher than that of bare PGRE. The detection conditions …

A novel urease-assisted ratiometric fluorescence sensing platform based on pH-modulated copper-quenched near-infrared carbon dots and methyl red-quenched red carbon dots for

Research Abstract

A novel and sensitive fluorescence ratiometric method is developed for urea detection based  on the pH-sensitive response of two fluorescent carbon dot (CD) systems: R-CDs/methyl red (MR) and NIR-CDs/Cu2+. The sensing mechanism involves breaking down urea using the enzyme urease, releasing ammonia and increasing pH. At higher pH, the fluorescence of NIR-CDs is quenched due to the enhanced interaction with Cu2+, while the fluorescence of R-CDs is restored as the acidic MR converts to its basic form, removing the inner filter effect. The ratiometric signal (F608/F750) of the R-CDs/MR and NIR-CDs/Cu2+ intensities changed in response to the pH induced by urea hydrolysis, enabling selective and sensitive urea detection. Detailed spectroscopic and morphological investigations confirmed the fluorescence probe design and elucidated the sensing mechanism. The method exhibited excellent …

Self‐Calibrating Copper‐Based Metal Organic Frameworks for Ratiometric Electrochemical Sensing of Creatinine

Research Abstract

Nanostructures that can undergo redox reactions have significant potential for electrochemical analysis. They can act as signal amplifiers to determine concentrations of targets in biological samples. In this work, a rational combination of electroactive copper‐based metal‐organic frameworks (Cu‐MOFs) and ferrocene carboxylic acid (Fc) was designed for ratiometric electrochemical detection of creatinine. The synthesized Fc@Cu‐MOFs exhibited two redox signals from the Cu2+/Cu+ and Fe3+/Fe2+ systems in the skeleton of Cu‐MOFs and Fc, respectively. In the presence of chloride (Cl), the oxidation current of Cu+ increased due to formation of solid‐state cuprous chloride (CuCl). Adding strong Cu+ chelators, e. g. creatinine, coordinated with Cu+ and caused the current output of solid‐state CuCl to decrease significantly. The anodic current of Fc did not appreciably change, serving as an internal reference signal. The ratiometric responses (ICu(I)/IFc) changed with increasing concentrations of creatinine from 0.017–130 μM with a detection limit (S/N=3) of 0.005 μM. The main advantages of Fc@Cu‐MOFs are the low LOD, high selectivity, and reliability, making it a suitable platform for determining creatinine in human serum and urine samples. The as‐fabricated sensor is a reliable approach for determining (bio) molecules that can form stable complexes with Cu+ ions.

Surface engineering of carbon microspheres with nanoceria wrapped on MWCNTs: a dual electrocatalyst for simultaneous monitoring of molnupiravir and paracetamol

Research Abstract

In the present study, nanoceria-decorated MWCNTs (CeNPs@MWCNTs) were synthesized using a simple and inexpensive process. Molnupiravir (MPV) has gained considerable attention in recent years due to the infection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). Since some people infected with COVID-19 experience fever and headaches, paracetamol (PCM) has been prescribed to relieve these symptoms. Therefore, there is an urgent need to monitor and detect these drugs simultaneously in pharmaceutical and biological samples. In this regard, we developed a novel sensor based on nanoceria-loaded MWCNTs (CeNPs@MWCNTs) for simultaneous monitoring of MPV and PCM. The incorporation of CeNPs@MWCNTs electrocatalyst into a glassy carbon microsphere fluorolube oil paste electrode (GCMFE) creates more active sites, which increase the surface area, electrocatalytic
