Simple and selective paper-based colorimetric sensors using silver nanoprism (AgNPrs) were conveniently fabricated and developed for the determination of chloride ions (Cl−) contaminated in the environment. Samples containing different concentrations of Cl− were analyzed. The analysis is based on the oxidative etching of the AgNPrs into smaller silver nanospheres (AgNPss) by Cl−. In the presence of...
A simple paper-based sensor with electrochemical detection was first developed for rapid, selective, and sensitive determination of acetylcholinesterase (AChE). The screen-printed graphene electrode was used as working electrode providing sensitivity for the sensor. The amperometric detection of AChE is based on the determination of thiocholine (TCh) produced from hydrolysis of acetylthiocholine chloride...
A simple, rapid, sensitive, and economical method based on colorimetry for the determination of paraquat, a widely used herbicide, was developed. Citrate-coated silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized as the colorimetric probe. The mechanism of the assay is related to the aggregation of negatively charged AgNPs as induced by positively-charged paraquat resulting from coulombic attraction which...
A simple and highly sensitive electrochemical sensor based on an electrochemically reduced graphene oxide-modified screen-printed carbon electrode (ERGO-SPCE) for the simultaneous determination of sunset yellow (SY) and tartrazine (TZ) was proposed. An ERGO film was coated onto the electrode surface using a cyclic voltammetric method and then characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). In...
The optical detection for inorganic arsenic (As) semi-quantitative determination is presented by using silver nanoplates (AgNPls). The color of AgNPs is immediately changed in the presence of As(III) and As(V) with the same sensitivity. To improve the selectivity of AgNPls for As detection, ferrihydrite-coated silica gel (SiO2-Fh) was specifically exploited as adsorbent for arsenic prior to As detection...
A nanocomposite of graphene (G), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and polyaniline (PANI) modified onto screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) using an electrospraying technique was developed for simultaneous determination of five parabens in beverages and cosmetic products by high performance liquid chromatography. PVP and PANI were used as the dispersing agents of graphene, and also for the enhancement...
A development of ultra-high performance liquid chromatographic coupled with a novel inkjet-printed conductive ink-modified electrode for a fast and simultaneous determination of polyphenolic antioxidants was achieved. Two printing techniques were selected for fabrication and modification including (i) an in-house screen-printing method and (ii) an inkjet-printing method, respectively. A conductive...
For the first time, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) modified screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) was developed as working electrode in ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) coupled with electrochemical detection (UHPLC-ED) for simultaneous determination of thiram, disulfiram, and N,N-diethyl-N’,N’-dimethylthiuram disulfide, their derivative compound. The separation was performed in reversed-phase...
A novel colorimetric assay based on silver nanoplates (AgNPls) for detecting nickel ions (Ni 2+ ) has been developed. Glutathione (GSH) and l-cysteine (Cys) were used to modify the AgNPls surface, exhibiting extremely high selectivity towards Ni 2+ over other metal ions under specific conditions. Upon addition of Ni 2+ to the modified AgNPls solution, a distinctive color change...
An ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) coupled with graphene/polyaniline (G/PANI)-modified screen-printed carbon electrode was developed for separation and sensitive determination of eight sulfonamides (SAs) in shrimp. Electrospraying was selected for electrode modification because it can generate the well dispersion of G/PANI nanocomposites on the electrode surface. Prior to electrochemical...
A highly sensitive, rapid, simple and selective adsorptive stripping assay for the determination of trace copper(II) is proposed. The methodology is based on the adsorptive accumulation of copper(II)–1,10-phenanthroline complexes onto a glassy carbon electrode, followed by oxidation of the adsorbed species by voltammetric scanning using square-wave voltammetry. The influences of experimental variables...
This work combines lab-on-paper methodology with nanoparticle science to develop a new tool for the simple and rapid determination of Hg(II). The resulting paper-based device enables measurement of Hg(II) from only 2μL of sample solution. The color of the nanosilver in the test area immediately changes in the presence of Hg(II), and this change can be monitored by the naked eye. This method exhibits...
The first use of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) for the rapid, simple, and selective determination of homocysteine (Hcy) levels in human plasma was studied. Hcy and five other amino acids, including cysteine (Cys), could be distinguished by their different aggregation kinetics, which caused a change in the visible color and a shift in the UV–vis absorption spectra. The difference in the cross-linking...
In this work, the rapid detection of cholesterol using poly(dimethylsiloxane) microchip capillary electrophoresis, based on the coupling of enzymatic assays and electrochemical detection, was developed. Direct amperometric detection for poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) microchip capillary electrophoresis was successfully applied to quantify cholesterol levels. Factors influencing the performance of the...
A simple, automatic and practical system for successive determination of albumin and creatinine has been developed by combining sequential injection analysis (SIA) and highly sensitive dye-binding assays. Albumin detection was based on the increase in the absorbance due to complex formation between albumin and eosin Y in acidic media. The absorbance of the complex was monitored at 547nm. For the creatinine...
In this report, we aimed to extend our previous efforts toward the evaluation of sulfonamides (SAs) with a boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode. We improved this method by reducing the analysis time using a monolithic column coupled with amperometric detection to determine seven sulfonamides (sulfaguanidine, sulfadiazine, sulfamethazine, sulfamonomethoxine, sulfamethoxazole, sulfadimethoxine and sulfaquinoxaline)...
A highly sensitive electrochemical amplification immunoassay for Salmonella typhi (S. typhi) determination has been developed for the first time by using a copper-enhanced gold nanoparticle label coupled with anodic stripping voltammetry. Monoclonal antibodies for S. typhi were first immobilized on polystyrene microwells and then captured by S. typhi bacteria. After an immunoreaction occurred, a polyclonal,...
