An amperometric biosensor for determination of Cytochrome c (Cyt c) was fabricated by immobilizing Cytochrome c oxidase (COx) onto nickel oxide nanoparticles (NiO-NPs) decorated carboxylated multiwalled carbon nanotubes/polyaniline (NiO-NPs/cMWCNT/PANI) film electrodeposited on the surface of a gold (Au) electrode. The electrochemical characteristics of immobilized COx were investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform Infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR). Cyclic voltammetric (CV) studies of the electrode at different stages of construction of enzyme electrode demonstrated that the modified Au electrode had enhanced electrochemical oxidation of H2O2, which offers a number of attractive features to develop amperometric biosensors based on split of H2O2. There was a good linear relationship between the current (mA) and Cyt c concentration in the range 5 x 10(-12) M to 5 x 10(-7) M. The sensor had a detection limit of 5 x 10(-12) M (S/N = 3) with a high sensitivity of 3.7 mA cm(-2) nM(-1). The sensor gave accurate and satisfactory results, when employed for determination of Cyt c in different serum samples.

Background: In glioblastoma (GBM) therapy research, tumour treating fields by the company Novocure™, have shown promise for increasing patient overall survival. When used with the chemotherapeutic agent temozolomide, they extend median survival by five months. However, there is a space to design alternative systems that will be amenable for wider use in current research.

Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and C-reactive protein (CRP) are biomacromolecules known as cancer and inflammatory markers. Thus, they play a crucial role in early cancer diagnosis, post-treatment recurrence detection, and tumor risk assessment. This paper describes the development of an ultrasensitive and selective imprinted paper-based analytical device (PAD) as impedance sensor for determination of CEA and CRP in serum samples for point-of-care testing (POCT).

The sustainable material, biochar (BC) from a hardwood source, was synthesized via pyrolysis process at 400 °C (BC400) and 700 °C (BC700) and used as a modifier during the electrochemical sensor design. The prepared BCs were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis, and elemental analysis (CHNS). The development of rapid analytical techniques for detecting pesticides employing a low-cost carbon paste electrode (CPE) modified with BC is a novel strategy to provide a sensitive response to water pollution.

Flexible sweat sensors play a crucial role in health monitoring and disease prevention by enabling real-time, non-invasive assessment of human physiological conditions. Sweat contains a variety of biomarkers, offering valuable insights into an individual's health status. In this study, we developed an advanced flexible electrochemical sensor featuring reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-based electrodes, modified with a composite material comprising nitrogen and sulfur co-doped holey graphene (HG) and MXene, with in-situ-grown TiO nanoparticles on the MXene.
