Article Synopsis
  • - A new, affordable potentiometric sensor for detecting erythromycin (ERY) uses circular carbon dots and incorporates nanomaterials (f-MWCNTs/PANi) to improve performance, offering high sensitivity and selectivity against other similar drugs.
  • - The sensor operates with a detection limit of 9.6 ± 0.4 × 10 M and shows excellent selectivity when tested against related substances like azithromycin and paracetamol, making it suitable for accurate drug monitoring.
  • - Validated for use in pharmaceutical formulations and human urine samples, the sensor demonstrates recovery rates between 93.0% and 104.3%, showcasing its effectiveness even in complex biological matrices with minimal sample volume needed.

Article Synopsis
  • - Myoglobin (Mb) is a key cardiac biomarker for quickly diagnosing cardiovascular issues, prompting the development of a reliable and affordable paper-based sensing device for point-of-care monitoring.
  • - A custom biomimetic antibody for myoglobin was created using a molecular imprinting technique on carboxylated multiwalled carbon nanotubes, and the sensor's effectiveness was validated through various analyses.
  • - The sensor demonstrated strong selectivity for myoglobin, a detection limit of 28 nM, and successful recovery in fake serum samples, suggesting it could serve as a scalable and cost-effective tool for clinical analysis.

Novel cost-effective screen-printed potentiometric platforms for simple, fast, and accurate assessment of Fluoxetine (FLX) were designed and characterized. The potentiometric platforms integrate both the FLX sensor and the reference Ag/AgCl electrode. The sensors were based on the use of 4'-nitrobenzo-15-crown-5 (ionophore I), dibenzo-18-crown-6 (ionophore II), and 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (2-HP-β-CD) (ionophore III) as neutral carriers within a plasticized PVC matrix.
