3D Paper-Based Device Integrated with a Battery-Less NFC Potentiostat for Nonenzymatic Detection of Cholesterol.

Portable electrochemical analytical devices such as cholesterol sensors are widely used for disease diagnosis. However, these tools are bulky and require bioreceptors for the specific detection of cholesterol. Herein, a novel 3D electrochemical paper-based analytical device (3D-ePAD) combined with a near-field communication (NFC) potentiostat was developed and applied to the nonenzymatic detection of cholesterol.

Paper-based electrochemical immunosensor for highly sensitive detection of chicken anemia virus.

Chicken anemia virus (CAV) is one of the primary causes of morbidity and mortality in young chickens. Given the importance of timely detection for maintaining livestock quality, there is a pressing need for rapid and field-deployable diagnostic tools. This study introduces a highly sensitive paper-based electrochemical immunosensor (PEI) for the detection of the 60 amino acid N-terminally truncated viral protein 1 (Δ60VP1), a derivative of the CAV capsid (VP1).

Ratiometric electrochemical lateral flow immunoassay for the detection of Streptococcus suis serotype 2.

An electrochemical lateral flow immunoassay (eLFIA) strip with high reproducibility was developed to rapidly and accurately detect Streptococcus suis serotype 2. This proposed strip was fabricated by integrating ratiometric electrochemical detection and LFIA (R-eLFIA). The R-eLFIA exhibited excellent reproducibility, which was improved by 3.

An electrochemical sensor for the voltammetric determination of artemisinin based on carbon materials and cobalt phthalocyanine.

An electrochemical sensor for the determination of artemisinin has been developed based on a glassy carbon electrode modified with hybrid nanocomposites of cobalt phthalocyanine, graphene nanoplatelets, multi-walled carbon nanotubes and ionic liquids (IL). To improve the sensitivity and selectivity of the sensor, cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) was used as an effective redox mediator to promote and catalyze the artemisinin reduction. Furthermore, the graphene nanoplatelets and multi-walled carbon nanotubes were used as excellent conducting supporting materials to improve the sensitivity of the electrochemical sensor.

A portable selective electrochemical sensor amplified with Fe3O4@Au-cysteamine-thymine acetic acid as conductive mediator for determination of mercuric ion.

Mercury ion (Hg) is considered to be one of the most toxic heavy metal ions and can cause adverse effects on kidney function, the central nervous system, and the immune system. Therefore, it is important to develop a fast and simple method for sensitive and selective detection of Hg in the environment. This research proposes a portable electrochemical sensor for rapid and selective detection of Hg.
