The electrocatalytic oxidation of dihydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) based on poly(o-anisidine)/graphene (POA/GR) nanocomposites modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was explored for the first time. POA/GR nanocomposites were synthesized via chemical oxidative polymerization method. X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman spectroscopy, and UV-Vis spectroscopy results demonstrate that nanocomposites are successfully synthesized. An intriguing composite structure was observed using different ratios of o-anisidine monomer and graphene. The electrical properties and electrochemical properties of these nanocomposites are investigated by impedance spectroscopy technique and cyclic voltammetric (CV) method, respectively. The synthesized nanocomposites were used to modify glassy carbon electrode (GCE), and the modified electrodes were found to exhibit electrocatalytic activity for oxidation of NADH at low potential range of +0.045 V in a neutral environment. The fabricated sensor based on POA/GR31-modified GCE exhibited enhanced current response with very high sensitivity of 47.1 μA μM(-1) for the detection of NADH. The developed POA/GR-modified GCE exhibited excellent reproducibility, stability, and selectivity for the determination of NADH. The practical analytical utility of the proposed method was demonstrated by NADH spiked ascorbic acid (AA) and the results confirmed that the proposed method is suitable for the determination of NADH in the presence of AA. This can open up new opportunities for simple and selective detection of NADH and provide a promising platform for biosensor designs.

The polymerase gamma (POLG) gene mutation is associated with mitochondria and metabolism disorders, resulting in heterogeneous responses to immunological activation and posing challenges for mitochondrial disease therapy. Optical metabolic imaging captures the autofluorescent signal of two coenzymes, NADH and FAD, and offers a label-free approach to detect cellular metabolic phenotypes, track mitochondria morphology, and quantify metabolic heterogeneity. In this study, fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) of NAD(P)H and FAD revealed that POLG mutator macrophages exhibit a decreased NAD(P)H lifetime, and optical redox ratio compared to the wild-type macrophages, indicating an increased dependence on glycolysis.

The development of point-of-care testing (POCT) methods is highly desirable in molecular detection, as they enable disease diagnosis and biomarker monitoring on-site or at home. Repurposing existing POCT devices to detect diverse biomarkers is an economical way to develop new devices for POCT use. Personal glucose meter (PGM) is one of the most used off-the-shelf POCT devices that has been reused to detect non-glucose targets.

This work utilized a combination of photocatalytic organic semiconductors and bacteria to create a photocatalytic organic semiconductor-bacterial biomixture system based on a bacteria imprinted polymers (OBBIPs-PEC) sensor, for the detection of with high sensitivity in "turn-on" mode at the single-cell level. This outstanding sensor arises from an integration of two different types of semiconductor materials to form heterojunctions. As well this sensor involves combining a semiconductor material with cationic side chains and an electron transport chain within a natural cellular environment, in which the cationic side chain of poly(fluorene--phenylene) organic semiconductor at 2-(4-mesyl-2-nitrobenzoyl)-1,3-cyclohexanedione (PFP-OC@MNC) demonstrated the ability to penetrate the cell membrane of and interact with specific binding sites through electrostatic interactions.
