Recent progress in the utilization of nanocarbon-based materials, such as graphene, nanodiamond, and CNTs, is discussed regarding their enhanced performance in electrochemical sensors for theophylline.

The lack of reliable and efficient techniques for early monitoring to stop long-term effects on human health is an increasing problem as the pathogenesis effect of infectious bacteria is growing continuously.

A simple and robust approach integrating threads and permanent markers to detect sanitizer quality based on dye displacement assay.

The study shows that plant growth regulators (PGRs) have estrogenic effects, which may disrupt the normal physiological functions of endogenous estrogen in organisms.

E-waste-derived reduced graphene oxide/ZnO forfast electrochemical detection of bisphenol A (BPA).

Novel CE and HPLC methods for the determination of ALP in pharmaceutical dosage forms were developed, validated according to ICH guidelines, applied to real pharmaceutical samples, cross-validated and greenness assessment was performed.

We demonstrate that Raman spectroscopy, coupled with spectral interrogation and multivariate statistical analysis, can be used to discriminate among diverse kerogen-like biosignatures. Our approach can shed new light on the origin of fossil organics.

A design theory for an autonomously driven dispenser was established. The multiplexed ELISA device was integrated with the dispenser and CLOCK circuits, and successfully prepared a calibration curve of mouse IgG by rotating at a constant speed.

Ca-ZnO gas sensor exibited a good response and high selectivity toward NH₃ gas. Theses performances make the material an excellent candidate for monitoring ammonia gas at low concentrations.
