In this study, a sensitive platform was designed for the electrocatalytical oxidation and recognition of ascorbic acid (AA) based on poly(β-cyclodextrin) modified glassy carbon electrode (p(β-CD-GCE). Electropolymerization of β-CD on the surface of GCE was performed on the potential range of -1 to 1.5 V. So, a novel biopolymer was prepared on the surface of GCE towards sensitive recognition of AA in human plasma samples. The developed platform has good sensitivity and accuracy for electrooxidation and detection of AA with lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) of 1 nM and linear range of 1 nM to 100 mM. Moreover, the designed electrochemical sensor was employed for the analysis of AA on human plasma samples with high sensitivity. Based on advantages of p(β-CD) prepared by electropolymerization procedure (green, fast, homogeny, and efficient eletrocatalytical behaviour), this conductive biopolymer showed excellent analytical behaviour towards electrooxidation of AA. It is expected that the prepared polymeric interface is able to use in the analysis of biological species in clinical samples.

Precise detection of important pharmaceuticals with narrow therapeutic index (NTI) is very critical as there is a small window between their effective dose and the doses at which the adverse reactions are very likely to appear. Regarding the fact that various pharmacokinetics will be plausible while considering pharmacogenetic factors and also differences between generic and brand name drugs, accurate detection of NTI will be more important. Current routine analytical techniques suffer from many drawbacks while using novel biosensors can bring up many advantages including fast detection, accuracy, low cost with simple and repeatable measurements. Recently the well-known carbon Nano-allotropes including carbon nanotubes and graphenes have been widely used for development of different Nano-biosensors for a diverse list of analytes because of their great physiochemical features such as high tensile strength, ultra-light weight, unique electronic construction, high thermo-chemical stability, and an appropriate capacity for electron transfer. Because of these exceptional properties, scientists have developed an immense interest in these nanomaterials. In this case, there are important reports to show the effective Nano-carbon based biosensors in the detection of NTI drugs and the present review will critically summarize the available data in this field.
Trifluralin is herbicide of the dinitroanilines group in which NO2 molecules are attached to the benzene ring at diverse positions. Trifluralin affects endocrine function and is listed as an endocrine disrupter in the European Union list. Therefore, its determination is so important in health science. In this study, an easy, sensitive and environmentally friendly method has been developed for determination of trifluralin based on its electrochemical oxidation on a three-electrode system designed on the surface of agricultural products using Ag-citrate/GQDs (graphene quantum dots) nano-ink. The sensor was prepared by direct writing on the surface of the samples. The designed electrodes were dried after 24 h at room temperature and used for trifluralin detection. Under optimized experimental conditions, the Ag-citrate/GQDs nano-ink based sensor was exhibited good sensitivity and specificity for trifluralin detection. The obtained linear range using the cyclic voltammetric (CV) technique is between 0.008 to 1 mM and low limit of quantification (LLOQ) was 0.008 mM. Also, the obtained linear range using differential pulse voltammetric (DPV) and square wave voltammetric (SWV) techniques is 0.005-0.04 mM with LLOQ of 0.005 mM. For further validation of the applicability of the proposed method, it was also used for detection of trifluralin on the surface of apple skin.

A sensitive and specific approach was developed for the determination of Haemophilus influenza using DNA based bio-assay. In this study, citrate capped silver nanoparticle was synthesized and employed for bioconjugation with pDNA toward target sequences detection. In this study, synthesized probe (SH-5'-AAT TTT CCA ACT TTT TCA CCT GCA T-3') of Haemophilus influenza was detected with great sensitivity and selectivity after hybridization with cDNA (5'-ATG CAG GTG AAA AAG TTG GAA AAT T-3'). Regarding to the obtained results, the low limit of quantification (LLOQ) of DNA sample was 1 ZM using 15 μL of probe and 200 μL of Cit/AgNPs. According to ultra-sensitivity of the fabricated optical DNA-based bio-assay, it has potential for bacterial determination both in clinical and environmental specimens. To evaluate the selectivity of developed DNA based biosensor, three mismatch sequences were applied. Finally, the designed genosensor is a significant diagnostic strategy for detection of Haemophilus influenza with great selectivity.

Safety and quality of water are significant matters for agriculture, animals and human health. Microcystins, as secondary metabolite of cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) and cyclic heptapeptide cyanotoxin, are one of the main marine toxins in continental aquatic ecosystems. More than 100 microcystins have been identified, of which MC-LR is the most important type due to its high toxicity and common detection in the environment. Climate change is an impressive factor with effects on cyanobacterial blooms as source of microcystins. The presence of this cyanotoxin in freshwater, drinking water, water reservoir supplies and food (vegetable, fish and shellfish) has created a common phenomenon in eutrophic freshwater ecosystems worldwide. International public health organizations have categorized microcystins as a kind of neurotoxin and carcinogen. There are several conventional methods for detection of microcystins. The limitations of traditional methods have encouraged the development of innovative methods for detection of microcystins. In recent years, the developed sensor techniques, with advantages, such as accuracy, reproducibility, portability and low cost, have attracted considerable attention. This review compares the well-known of biosensor types for detection of microcystins with a summary of their analytical performance.
Haemophilus Influenza leads to respiratory infections such as sinusitis, acute otitis media, pneumonia and bronchitis. In addition, it causes invasive infections such as cellulite, septic arthritis, and meningitis. Therefore, quick and sensitive detection of H. influenza is of great importance in medical microbiology. In this study, a novel DNA-based bioassay was developed to the monitoring of Haemophilus influenza genome in human plasma samples using binding of pDNA with cDNA. DNA hybridization strategy was used to investigation of DNAs binding. For this purpose, silver nanoparticle doped graphene quantum dots inks functionalized by D-penicillamine (Ag NPs-DPA-GQDs) were synthesized and deposited on the surface of glass carbon electrode (GCE). Also, gold nanoparticles functionalized with cysteamine (CysA-AuNPs) were deposited on the surface of the Ag-DPA-GQDs modified GCE. Afterward, thiolated DNA probe was immobilized on the surface of the modified electrode. DNA hybridization was monitored using square wave voltammetry (SWV) technique. Engineered genosensor indicated good performance with high specificity and sensitivity for detection of Haemophilus influenza genome. Under optimal conditions, linear range and low limit of quantitation (LLOQ) were obtained as target concentrations ranging from 1 pM-1 ZM and 1 ZM, respectively. The designed biosensor also showed high capability of discriminating one-base, two-base and three-base mismatched sequences. Also, the prepared genosensor could be easily regenerated and reused to evaluate hybridization process.
