Chemical regulation of enzyme-mimic activity of nanomaterials is challenging because it requires a precise understanding of the surface chemistry and mechanism, and rationally designed applications. Herein, Ag + -gated peroxidase activity is demonstrated by successfully modulating surface chemistry of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide-capped gold nanoparticles (CTAB-AuNPs). A surface blocking effect of long-chain molecules on surfaces of AuNPs that inhibit peroxidase activity of AuNPs is found. Ag + ions can selectively bind on the surfaces of AuNPs and competitively destroy CTAB membrane forming Ag + @CTAB-AuNPs complexes to result in enhanced peroxidase activity. Ag + @CTAB-AuNPs show the highest peroxidase activity compared to similar-sized citrate-capped and ascorbic acid-capped AuNPs. Ag + @CTAB-AuNPs can potentially develop into analyte-responsive systems and exhibit advantages in the optical sensing field. For example, the Ag + @CTAB-AuNPs system shows an enhanced sensitivity and selectivity for acetylcholinesterase activity sensing compared to other methods.

Existing piezoelectric sensing materials usually rely on top and bottom planar electrodes to achieve the assembly of piezoelectric sensors , restricting their application due to the limitation of flexibility and miniaturization as well as time-consuming and costly multi-steps preparation. Here, we report a simple strategy to synchronously construct piezoelectric elements and nanoresistance networks via fabricating single PAN/PANI/PVP piezoelectric-conductive nanofibers (NFs) by electrospinning. By virtue of PAN as piezoelectric elements and PANI/PVP as nanoresistance networks, the flexible PAN/PANI/PVP piezoelectric-conductive NFs as an integrated sensing system can timely collect and output voltage based on Wheatstone bridge principle. The pressure sensing potential of flexible PAN/PANI/PVP integrated nanofibers membrane (INFM) is systematically explored and evaluated. The valid contact and adhesion of piezoelectric elements and nanoresistance networks improve effective polarization and collection of induced charges, enhancing piezoelectric output performance. Moreover, it enables the INFM to perceive tiny force with high-precision sensitivity (667 mV N −1 ) down to approximately 0.05 N while retaining a linear relationship. Thus, our research opens a simple route to design integrated sensing materials with nanoscale , high-sensitivity, lightweight and low-cost, making them attractive candidates in the potential application in micro-/nanoscale sensors and wearable electronics .

This study describes a facile and effective one-pot route to synthesize structurally uniform and electrochemically active nickel hydroxide–graphene nanocomposites (Ni(OH)2–GN) and investigates the electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation of insulin. Graphene here was used to tether Ni2+ precursor onto surfaces and eventually grow Ni(OH)2 nanoparticles to form hybrid materials. The synthetic Ni(OH)2–GN nanocomposite has a uniform surface distribution, which was characterized with scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Moreover, the composition of synthetic Ni(OH)2–GN nanocomposite was characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR spectra). The Ni(OH)2–GN were electrochemically treated in 0.1 M NaOH solution through cyclic voltammograms, and then gradually transited into nickel oxyhydroxide–graphene nanocomposites (NiOOH–GN), which demonstrated high catalytic activity and improved stability to insulin oxidation. The steady-state current response increases linearly with insulin concentration from 800 nM to 6400 nM with a fast response time of less than 2 s and a detection limit of 200 nM. The excellent performance of insulin sensor, including long term stability, can be ascribed to the synergistic effects of the large surface area (resulting in high loading ability), dispersing ability and conductivity of graphene and the large surface-to-volume ratio and electrocatalytic activity of Ni(OH)2 nanoparticles.

A functionalized glass sensor ( G-P ) was prepared for detecting nitroaromatic compounds (NACs) by chemically immobilizing a conjugated polymer P on the surface of a glass slide. The monolayer film sensor had several advantages: the signal amplification effect of conjugated polymers, no leakage of sensing materials in solution, and good permeability for the analytes. Fluorescence quenching studies demonstrated that the sensor was highly sensitive to NACs. When the DNT concentration was 1.03 × 10 –7 mol/L, the quenching efficiency (1– I / I
0 ) of G-P reached 52.8%. Moreover, the excellent properties of reversibility, selectivity and sensitivity indicated the glass G-P might be a promising sensor in the field of explosives detection.

Herein, a novel electrochemical hydrazine sensor has been successfully fabricated using N-doped carbon film-immobilized Au nanoparticles coated ZnO jungle on indium tin oxide (AuNPs@NC-ZnO/ITO) as working electrode. The AuNPs@NC-ZnO/ITO has been prepared by an in situ synthesis method through the following steps. Firstly, the ZnO jungle modified ITO was prepared by electrochemical deposition method. Then, zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) film was formed on the surface of ZnO jungle by wet-chemical method using ZnO jungle and 2-methylimidazole as Zn precursor and organic ligand, respectively. The loading AuNPs was performed by adsorption of Au 3+ into micropores of ZIF-8, followed by heat treatment under N 2 atmosphere, where the ZIF-8 converted into N-doped carbon and Au 3+ converted into AuNPs embedded in N-doped carbon film. Most importantly, such AuNPs@NC-ZnO/ITO exhibited good electrocatalytic activity for the oxidation of hydrazine. The hydrazine sensor based on AuNPs@NC-ZnO/ITO showed linear detection range from 0.05 to 10 μM and detection limit of 4.1 nM at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3.

A conducting polymer based composite material of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) doped with pure insoluble ionic liquid (IL), 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, was prepared through a cost-effective electrodeposition method. A very tiny amount of insoluble IL (less than 15 μL), containing 0.1 M conducting polymer monomer, was drop-coated on an electrode surface and then used for electropolymerization using a homemade electrochemical cell filled with aqueous supporting electrolyte. With this design, the consumption of expensive IL for the preparation of the PEDOT/IL composite was greatly reduced, and thus effectively reduced the cost. The prepared PEDOT/IL composite was found to be highly conductive and stable, and it exhibited a highly nanoporous microstructure and excellent electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation of dopamine (DA). Based on the excellent stability and electrocatalytic activity of the PEDOT/IL nanocomposite, a highly stable, sensitive and selective DA sensor with a detection limit of about 51 nM was developed.

The rapid and sensitive detecting technique for subgroup J of avian leukosis viruses (ALVs-J) needs to be developed as soon as possible in order to not only reduce economic losses but also ensure the food safety. In this paper, a novel electrochemical immunosensor was built based on mesoporous graphitic carbon nitride (mpg-C 3 N 4 ). Mpg-C 3 N 4 was used as the sensor platform to bond with the primary antibodies (Ab 1 ). The compound of thionine and mpg-C 3 N 4 (Th-mpg-C 3 N 4 ) was synthesized for the first time to serve as the electroactive probe as well as the carrier of secondary antibodies (Ab 2 ). Compared to bulk g-C 3 N 4 , mpg-C 3 N 4 possesses larger specific surface area, smaller electrochemical resistance and abundant active sites. So the proposed electrochemical immunosensor exhibited amplified detective signals which realized the sensitive detection of ALVs-J. Under the opitimized conditions, the immunosensor exhibited outstanding analytical performance for the detection of ALVs-J whose titer ranged from 10 2.08 to 10 4.0 TCID 50 /mL (TCID 50 : 50% tissue culture infective dose) with a low detection limit of 120 TCID 50 /mL (S/N = 3). The sensitivity of the immnosensor was 6.15 μA/(TCID 50 /mL). This high sensitive immunosensor also displayed good selectivity, reproducibility and stability. Last but not least, this new strategy may be of great promise for clinic application in the future.

A porous graphene (PG) bionanocomposite of PG, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and anti-indole-3-acetic acid (anti-IAA) antibody for sensitive and label-free amperometric immunoassay of IAA was reported. A PG film was produced by a pre-reduction/electrochemical reduction process on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) and then a homogeneous AuNPs layer electrodeposition on the PG film. The anti-IAA antibody was immobilized onto the AuNPs through electrostatic adsorption and covalent conjugation. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), cyclic voltammetry (CV), elecro-chemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), ultraviolet visible spectroscopy (UV-vis) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) were used to characterize the PG film and the stepwise modification of the immunosensor. The electrochemical immunosensor exhibited a wide linear range from 2 × 10−11 to 2 × 10−8 g mL−1 with a detection limit of 0.016 ng mL−1 (S/N = 3) and showed significant linearity R2 = 0.9970. In addition, the proposed immunosensor showed acceptable selectivity and has been applied to the determination of IAA in the extract samples of several plant seeds with acceptable relative derivation (%) ranging from −5.25% to 4.24% between the immunosensor and high performance liquid chromatography. The proposed chemical pre-reduction and electro-reduction guided protocol can be extended to the preparation of many other functionalized PG nanocomposite films for wide applications.

In electrochemical immunoassays, great breakthroughs have been made in ultrasensitive detection of tumor markers by amplifying signals with coreaction accelerators. Herein, carbon nitrides with nitrogen vacancies (CNNVs) are proposed as emitter, due to the introduction of nitrogen vacancies this emitter has better ECL efficiency, the phenomena of interface electron transfer and electrode passivation are improved. At the same time, it can also promote the electrochemical reduction of coreactant, making it an attractive and potential emitter. The electrode was modified with Ag-Ti 3 C 2 MXene. It not only accelerates electron transfer and increases the effective working area of the electrode, but also acts as a coreaction accelerator to promote the electrochemical reduction of the coreactant K 2 S 2 O 8 , resulting in a strong ECL signal. The immunosensor showed a good linear relationship in the range of 10 −5 -100 ng/mL with a detection limit of 0.36 fg/mL. In addition, the excellent properties of good specificity and ultra-high stability provide an effective method for ultra-sensitive immunoassays.

Currently, wearable sensors have been widely used for human behavior monitoring. Among them, triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) textile has the functions of power generation and active sensing, showing great advantages in energy collection and signal transmission. However, the TENG textiles face problems such as limited recognition accuracy, insufficient flexibility, missed fashion sense, and complex manufacturing processes. To address the above issues, a core–shell structure integrated conductive fiber (C-fiber) based on ionogel and a hollow silicone tube are displayed. Owing to the fact that the C-fiber can be synthesized through a simple one-step UV curing process, it has the potential for large-scale production. Due to the dyeability of ionogel and the transparency of hollow tube, the C-fiber has the ability to obtain personalized colors. This fiber can be further woven into a flexible fabric sensor (W-TENG) for high-precision human behavior monitoring. Noteworthiness, the W-TENG still has flexibility and output signal in environments ranging from −18 to 200 °C,the strong wide temperature adaptability stem from the heat and frost resistance of the materials. By assembling W-TENG onto the human body, daily movements, fall types, and post fall states can be perceived. Furthermore, complex motion data is trained by support vector machine (SVM), and the recognition accuracy for different fall categories can reach 100%. In practical applications, TENG could be equipped with custom bluetooth modules to monitor falls in real-time during walking, and provide timely treatment for the injured.

In recent years, all-inorganic perovskite has been extensively studied due to its excellent photoelectric properties, but the application of Cs n PbBr 2+ n perovskite with excellent stability in the field of chemical sensing has yet to be developed. Herein, Cs 4 PbBr 6 /CsPbBr 3 with good stability was successfully prepared by controlling the synthesis temperature to 100 ° C. The fluorescence intensity of Cs 4 PbBr 6 /CsPbBr 3 exhibited 2,4-dinitriphenylhydrazine (DNPH) concentration-dependent characteristics and could be used for sensing DNPH based on the dynamic quenching process triggered by the collision between Cs 4 PbBr 6 /CsPbBr 3 and DNPH. A good linear model was established based on the detection signal and DNPH concentration in the range of 0.05∼30 mg/L and the detection limit was 0.033 mg/L. This method was applied to detect DNPH in soil and tap water samples with satisfactory results obtained. Therefore, this research broadens the application of Cs n PbBr 2+ n in the field of quantitative detection and is expected to be developed into a fluorescent sensor for the detection of hydrazine substances.

In this work, a simple and highly sensitive electrochemical method was developed to detect luteolin based on thio-β-cyclodextrin functionalized graphene/gold nanoparticles modified glassy carbon electrode (SH-β-CD-GNs/AuNPs/GCE). The peak currents of luteolin on the SH-β-CD-GNs/AuNPs/GCE can be greatly enhanced compared to the SH-β-CD-GNs/GCE and the bare GCE. It suggests that the nanocomposite not only shows the excellent electrical properties of GNs and AuNPs but also exhibits higher enrichment ability of cyclodextrins via the host-guest interaction between cyclodextrin and luteolin . At the SH-β-CD-GNs/AuNPs/GCE, the peak currents increased linearly with the concentration of luteolin in the range of 10.0 pM to 10.0 μM. The detection limit was estimated to be 3.3 pM (S/N = 3), which was more sensitive or comparable with the previous electrochemical sensors for luteolin detection. The analytical performance of this sensor has been evaluated for the detection of luteolin in human serum with satisfactory results. Furthermore, the method might open up a new possibility by using the nanohybrids to monitor other flavonoids which can form host–guest complexes with cyclodextrins.
