In the present study, the objective was to evaluate in situ interaction between Benzo[a]anthracene 7,2-dione 7-oxime (BZA) and calf thymus dsDNA (ct-dsDNA) using electroanalytical genosensor. Analytical techniques based on Ultraviolet/Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy and electroanalytical were used to investigate the interaction processes in solution and immobilized on carbon screen-printed electrodes modified with electrochemical mediator Meldola blue. In addition, was possible to evaluate the degree of damage caused to the genetic material by the analyte through of toxicity estimate (S%). The interaction evaluated by genosensor showed processes of intercalation, degradation, and breaks of the double strand of ct-dsDNA, suggesting that the interaction simulates highly toxic (values varying from 0.6 to 0.8 μA in 48 h of interaction), such as 8-oxoguanine (+0.48 V), which is a by-product of guanine oxidation. Furthermore, monitoring A (+1.10 V) after 1 h showed an S% value between 50 and 90%, indicative of high toxicity, and monitoring G (+0.85 V), which showed S>90%, indicated no toxicity after 10 min. Overall, the electroanalytical genosensor developed in a miniaturized system displayed good reproducibility and stability over time being a quick alternative for assesses the degree of toxicity between toxic xenobiotics and biologically electroactive molecules, such as DNA.

Most electroanalytical detection schemes for DNA markers require considerable time and effort from expert personnel to thoroughly follow the analysis and obtain reliable outcomes. This work aims to present an electrochemical assay performed inside a small card-based platform powered by microfluidic manipulation, requiring minimal human intervention and consumables. The assay couples a sample/signal dual amplification and DNA-modified magnetic particles for the detection of DNA amplification products.

Human Papilloma Virus 16 (HPV 16) is the well-known causative species responsible for triggering cervical cancer. When left undiagnosed and untreated, this disease leads to life-threatening events among the female populace, especially in developing nations where healthcare resources are already being stretched to their limits. Considering various drawbacks of conventional techniques for diagnosing this highly malignant cancer, it becomes imperative to develop miniaturized biosensing platforms which can aid in early detection of cervical cancer for enhanced patient outcomes.

Researchers are constantly looking to find new techniques of virus detection that are sensitive, cost-effective, and accurate. Additionally, they can be used as a point-of-care (POC) tool due to the fact that the populace is growing at a quick tempo, and epidemics are materializing greater often than ever. Electrochemiluminescence-based (ECL) biosensors for the detection of viruses have become one of the most quickly developing sensors in this field.

Background: rapid detection is still a formidable challenge to have control over the lethal disease. New diagnostic methods such as LED fluorescence microscopy, Genexpert, Interferon Gamma Release Assay (IGRA) are limited on efficacy spectrum owing to their high cost, time-intensive and laborious nature, in addition their low sensitivity hinders their robustness and portability. Electroanalytical methods are now being considered as an excellent alternative, being currently employed for efficient detection of the analytes with the potential of being portable.
