In this study, simultaneous electrochemical detection of ascorbic acid (AA), dopamine (DA), and uric acid (UA) was performed using a modified graphite paste electrode (MGPE) with epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and green tea (GT) powder. It was shown that the anodic peak current increased in comparison with that of the graphite paste electrode (GPE) in the cyclic voltammograms. The optimal pH for simultaneous determination of a quaternary mixture of AA-DA-UA was determined to be pH 2. The anodic peak potentials for a mixture containing AA-DA-UA were well separated from each other. The catalytic peak currents obtained at the surface of the MGPE/EGCG were linearly dependent on the AA, DA, and UA concentrations up to 23, 14, and 14 µM, respectively. The detection limits for AA, DA, and UA were 190, 90, and 70 nM, respectively. The analytical performance of this sensor has been evaluated for simultaneous detection of AA, DA, and UA in real samples. Finally, a modified electrode was prepared using GT and used for simultaneous determination of AA, DA, and UA. Based on the results, MPGE/GT showed two oxidation peaks at 0.43 and 0.6 V for DA and UA, respectively, without any oxidation peak for AA. The calibration curves at the surface of MGPE/GT were linear up to 14 µM with a detection limit of 0.18 and 0.33 µM for DA and UA, respectively. MGPEs provide a promising platform for the future development of sensors for multiplexed electrochemical detection of clinically important analytes.

Toxic materials are a threat in workplaces and the environment, as well as households. In them, gaseous substances are included, especially ones without any colour or fragrance, due to their non-detectability with the human senses. In this article, an attempt was made to find a solution for its detection in various conditions with the use of intelligent textiles.

Background: The buildup of methylparaben (MP), a broad-spectrum antimicrobial preservative with endocrine-disrupting properties, in environmental sources, especially aquatic systems, has become a significant concern due to its adverse health effects, including allergic reactions, promoting the risk of developing cancer, and inducing reproductive disorders. Hence, introducing inexpensive and easy-to-use monitoring devices for rapid, selective, and sensitive detection and quantification of MP is highly desirable. In this context, electrochemical platforms have proven to be attractive options due to their remarkable features, such as ease of fabrication and use, short response time, and acceptable sensitivity, accuracy, and selectivity.

This work aims to create an electrochemical sensor to detect paracetamol (PAR). The sensor is constructed by modifying an electrode with carbon paste and incorporating nanostructures of manganese cobaltite (MnCoO) onto reduced graphene oxide that is doped with nitrogen and boron (BN-rGO). MnCoO provides a stable structure and N, B-doped rGO enhances conductivity and provides additional active sites.

The development of flexible, cost-effective, highly efficient, and reliable humidity monitoring sensors is in high demand owing to their wide-range of applications in industrial domains. In this study, a humidity sensor was fabricated based on graphite/zinc oxide nanoparticle (G/ZnO-NP)-coated cellulose paper. A bar device was designed using computer software, and its sketch was printed on cellulose paper, with graphite bars then added using the pencil-drawing method, and then ZnO-NP paste was coated on the graphite patterns.
