Article Abstract

Lack of highly efficient, inexpensive, and easily available catalysts severely limits the practical applicability of electrochemically sensing assay towards 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT). Herein, four kinds of Fe-Co bimetallic Prussian blue analogues (FeCo-PBAs) with different molar ratios of Fe to Co were prepared using a simple coprecipitation method. Interestingly, Fe(III) in K [Fe(CN)] can be reduced to Fe(II) by adding trisodium citrate dehydrate, which could offer a new clue to synthesize PBAs with Fe(II) core ions. With the optimizational FeCo-PBA synthesized at a 0.5/1 M ratio of Fe to Co as an electrocatalyst, the constructed sensor shows excellent comprehensive performance for the 5-HT assay with a high sensitivity of 0.856 μA μM and an ultralow detection limit of 8.4 nM. Under the optimum conditions, linearity was obtained in the ranges of 0.1-10.0 μM and 10.0-200.0 μM and preferable recoveries ranged from 97.8% to 103.0% with relative standard deviation (RSD) < 4.0%. The integrated properties of FeCo-PBA can be comparable to previously reported electrocatalysts for the 5-HT assay including noble metal-based and expensive carbon (graphene and carbon nanotubes)-based electrocatalysts. The proposed sensor also exhibits outstanding selectivity, reproducibility, and practicality for real sample analyses. This work is the first report on the PBA-based sensor for the 5-HT assay, verifying the practicability of this high-performance sensor for the 5-HT assay.

Architecting Prussian blue analogue (PBA) cathodes with optimized synergistic bimetallic reaction centers is a paradigmatic strategy for devising high-energy sodium-ion batteries (SIBs); however, these cathodes usually suffer from fast capacity fading and sluggish reaction kinetics. To alleviate the above problems, herein, a series of early transition metal (ETM)-late transition metal (LTM)-based PBA (Fe-VO, Fe-TiO, Fe-ZrO, Co-VO, and Fe-Co-VO) cathode materials have been conveniently fabricated via an "acid-assisted synthesis" strategy. As a paradigm, the FeVO-PBA (FV) delivers a superb rate capability (148.

Article Synopsis
  • Peroxyacetic acid (PAA) is a low-toxicity oxidizing agent that effectively degrades pollutants like tetracycline, especially when activated by cobalt-iron-based Prussian blue analogs (Co-PBAs).
  • The Co-PBAs/PAA system generates organic radicals and operates efficiently across a wide pH range and in the presence of various interference substances found in water bodies.
  • In particular, the reaction with bicarbonate ions (HCO) significantly speeds up the degradation process, enhancing pollutant removal through the generation of reactive carbonate and acetyl peroxyl radicals.

Developing highly efficient bimetallic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as catalysts for Fenton-like reactions holds significant promise for decontamination processes. Although MOFs with excellent decontamination capabilities are achievable, ensuring their long-term stability, especially in the organoarsenic harmless treatment, remains a formidable challenge. Herein, we proposed a unique nanoconfinement strategy using graphene oxide (GO)-supported Prussian blue analogs (PBA) as catalytic membrane, which modulated the peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation in p-arsanilic acid (p-ASA) degradation from traditional radical pathways to a synergy of both radical and non-radical pathways.

Considering the close association between cardiac troponin I (cTnI) level and various cardiovascular diseases, it becomes essential to explore sensitive and accurate detection methods for monitoring their levels in the early stages of disease. In this work, a magnetic dual-aptamer electrochemical sensor for cTnI detection was constructed in the first utilizing MOF-on-MOF-derived electrocatalyst as a signal amplifier in collaboration with high-efficient separation of magnetic beads (MBs). Employing zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) with high surface area as host MOF, MOF-on-MOF heterostructure (ZIF-67@PBA) was facilely prepared by in-situ growth of conductive prussian blue analogue (PBA) as guest MOF onto the surface of ZIF-67 with a simple ion-exchange method.
