New stochastic devices for simultaneous analysis of mismatch repair proteins and KRAS in biological samples.

Two stochastic microsensors based on the immobilization of inulins: inutec and frutafit in a paste obtained from a graphene decorated with nitrogen (10.8 %), and boron (2.6 %), and paraffin oil (IR purity) were designed, characterized and validated for the molecular recognition and analysis of mismatch repair proteins like MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2, and of KRAS in biological samples such as: whole blood, urine, saliva, and tumoral tissues.

Bioanalysis of MMR and KRAS - a key factor in diagnosis of colorectal cancer.

Two miniaturized electrochemical devices were designed for the simultaneous bioanalysis of MMR (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2), and of KRAS in whole blood, urine, saliva, and tumoral tissues. The devices comprised besides the electronic part of the potentiostat a combined 3D stochastic microsensor (combined microplatform) with the sensing part based on the modification of graphene decorated with nitrogen, sulfur and boron (NSB-EGR) modified with two types of frutafit: FTEX and FHD. For the assay of MSH2, MSH6, KRAS, and PMS2 higher sensitivities were recorded when the microdevice based on FHD was used, while for the assay of MLH1 the best sensitivity was achieved by using the microdevice based on FTEX.

Stochastic platform based on calix[6]arene and TiO-modified reduced graphene oxide electrode for on-site determination of nonivamide in pharmaceutical and water samples.

Using a detection platform based on an integrated sensor constructed by modifying TiO and reduced graphene oxide paste with calix[6]arene, a novel stochastic approach for both quantitative and qualitative analysis of nonivamide in pharmaceuticals and water samples has been developed. A wide analytical range of 1.00 × 10 to 1.

-Methylfulleropyrrolidine-Based Multimode Sensor for Determination of Butoconazole Nitrate.

A multimode sensor (a sensor responding simultaneously to more than one mode, e.g., stochastic mode, amperometric mode, voltammetric mode) based on graphite paste modified with -methylfulleropyrrolidine was proposed for the determination of butoconazole nitrate in its pharmaceutical formulation.

Disposable stochastic sensors for fast analysis of ibuprofen, ketoprofen, and flurbiprofen in their topical pharmaceutical formulations.

Three disposable stochastic sensors based on maltodextrin (dextrose equivalent = 4-7) and nanostructures (copper monolayer, carbon monolayer and carbon-copper composite layer) deposited using cold plasma on copy paper were proposed for the fast analysis of ibuprofen, ketoprofen and flurbiprofen in pharmaceutical formulation samples. The widest linear concentration ranges recorded were: for ibuprofen 1 fmol/L - 1 mmol/L when the disposable stochastic sensor based on carbon monolayer was used, for ketoprofen 1 fmol/L - 1 mmol/L when the disposable stochastic sensors based on copper monolayer and carbon-copper composite layer were used, and for flurbiprofen 1 fmol/L - 10 mmol/L when the disposable stochastic sensor based on carbon-copper composite layer was used. The lowest limit of detection recorded for each non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug was 1 fmol/L.

Recent Trends in Ibuprofen and Ketoprofen Electrochemical Quantification - A Review.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are intensively manufactured, used, and regulated. However, these compounds incur toxic effects on gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and renal systems when administered in high doses for extended periods. Additionally, once these drugs reach the ecosystems through various pathways, they become environmental contaminants and raise ecological concerns.
