A novel carbon paste electrode modified with nanosized mesoporous MCM-41 was prepared, and used as an electrochemical sensor to study the electro oxidation of levodopa (LD), carbidopa (CD) and their mixtures. Using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), a highly selective and simultaneous determination of LD and CD has been explored at the modified electrode. The electrochemical sensor displayed a good resolving function for the overlapping voltammetric responses of LD and CD into two separate peaks with a potential difference of 370 mV. DPV peak currents of LD increased linearly with concentration over the 0.13 μM to 1250.00 μM range and exhibited a detection limit of 0.072 μM. Also, the proposed electrochemical sensor was used for the determination of LD and CD in some real samples, using the standard addition method.

The electrochemical biosensor has brought a paradigm shift in the field of sensing due to its fast response and easy operability. The performance of electrochemical sensors can be modified by coupling them with various metal oxides, nanomaterials, and nanocomposites. Hydrogen peroxide is a short-lived reactive oxygen species that plays a crucial role in various physiological and biological processes.

This research presents a systematic review of the application of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to detect volatile organic compounds (VOCs). VOCs, compounds with high vapor pressure at ambient temperature and normal pressure, are widely present in a variety of industrial and living environments. VOCs are not only hazardous to the environment but also have a severe impact on human health.

In this paper, microporous Zn-based zeolitic imidazolate framework with the sodalite cage structure (SOD-ZIF-8) was synthesized by the solvothermal method. Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and N2 adsorption were employed to characterize the synthesized material. An ultra-sensitive electrochemical sensor based on highly dispersed bimetallic Ni-Pt nanoparticles immobilized on zeolitic metal-organic framework ZIF-8 for dopamine quantification is introduced for the first time.

In this study, a molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor (MIECS) was constructed based on the combination of graphene quantum dots-gold nanoparticles (GQDs-AuNPs), molecular imprinting polymer (MIP), and electrochemical technology for the ultra-sensitive detection of 17β-estradiol (E). GQDs-AuNPs were synthesized and modified on the surface of glassy carbon electrodes (GCE). Safranine T was used as the functional monomer and E was the template molecule for self-assembly and electropolymerization, thus generating an MIP film on the electrode surface.

The rational design of efficient hydroxyl intermediate (*OH) adsorption catalysts for dopamine electrooxidation still faces a major challenge. To address this challenge, a CeO-loaded CuO catalyst inspired by the f-p-d orbital hybridization strategy is designed to achieve efficient *OH adsorption and improve dopamine oxidation. The experimental results and theoretical calculations demonstrate that the f-p-d orbital hybridization regulates the electron distribution at the Ce-O-Cu interface, which facilitates electron transfer and optimizes the adsorption of *OH, thereby promoting dopamine oxidation.
