Article Synopsis
  • - This study developed a paper-based sensor array to detect COVID-19 by analyzing changes in human serum samples, using various sensing materials like nanoparticles and dyes.
  • - It involved 118 serum samples from COVID-19 patients and non-infected controls, showing a distinct color change indicating infection, achieving an 83.0% accuracy rate in distinguishing between the two groups.
  • - The sensor responses correlated with viral load from PCR tests and provided a quick, cost-effective, and easy method for assessing COVID-19 severity without being affected by the age of the subjects.

The aim of this work is to fabricate a sensitive and novel enzymeless electrochemical sensor for the simultaneous determination of parathion and paraoxon using the Nd-UiO-66@MWCNT nanocomposite. For this purpose, Neodymium (Nd) was introduced into a Universitetet i Oslo (UiO-66) structure to construct Nd-UiO-66 and then, adding multi-walled carbon nanotubes to the Nd-UiO-66 to increase the electrocatalytic activity and surface area of the obtained composite. The Nd-UiO-66@MWCNT has numerous advantages like excellent conductivity, tunable texture, and large surface area and can be used as a distinctive structure for the construction of modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) to enhance the charge-transfer and the efficiency of electrochemical sensors.

In the present work, a novel electrochemical sensor modified glassy carbon electrode with ion-imprinted polymers (IIP-GCE) was applied for uranyl ions (UO) determination. Surface modifier was synthesized through precipitation polymerization method, using acrylic acid as a monomer, benzoyl peroxide (BPO) as initiator, and trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA) as cross-linker. A new uranyl-trans-3-(3-pyridyl) acrylic acid complex was employed, serving as an active and specific site on the synthesized modifier.

A sandwich-type electrochemical immunoassay was introduced for the determination of the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) biomarker. A direct and simple galvanic replacement reaction was performed between the Ag framework and metallic salts of tetrachloroauric(iii) acid trihydrate and chloroplatinic acid to produce a trimetallic composite of AgAuPt. The trimetallic composite of AgAuPt was applied to the preparation of the capture layer of the immunoassay for stabilizing the primary Ab at the surface of the prepared composite.

Cancer is one of the most widespread challenges and important diseases, which has the highest mortality rate. Lung cancer is the most common type of cancer, so that about 25% of all cancer deaths are related to the lung cancer. The lung cancer is classified as two different types with different treatment methodology: the small cell lung carcinoma and nonsmall cell lung carcinoma are two categories of the lung cancer.
