Abstract
Acrylamide is a hazardous substance present in heat-processed food products and industrial wastewater. It is carcinogenic and neurotoxic and therefore emphasises the importance of monitoring its levels and the need for sensitive and accurate detection techniques. Electrochemical biosensing has emerged as a potential analytical method for detecting acrylamide. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the most recent developments in electrochemical biosensing methods, including amperometric, potentiometric, and impedimetric biosensors for acrylamide detection. The creation and use of novel biorecognition components, such as enzymes, antibodies, and molecularly imprinted polymers that enhance the sensitivity and specificity of acrylamide monitoring, are given special attention. Incorporating nanomaterials such as carbon-based nanomaterials and metallic nanoparticles was investigated for its potential to improve the sensors' electrochemical characteristics and overall efficacy. The potential of electrochemical biosensors for acrylamide detection is further illustrated, showcasing their effectiveness in a range of matrices in different food products. This review aims to inform researchers about the latest technological developments, trends, and future directions in electrochemical biosensing for acrylamide detection. The study highlights the significance of ongoing research and cooperation in creating efficient biosensing systems to protect public health and the environment by thoroughly examining current technology and pointing out areas for improvement.
期刊介绍:
The journal''s title Analytical Biochemistry: Methods in the Biological Sciences declares its broad scope: methods for the basic biological sciences that include biochemistry, molecular genetics, cell biology, proteomics, immunology, bioinformatics and wherever the frontiers of research take the field.
The emphasis is on methods from the strictly analytical to the more preparative that would include novel approaches to protein purification as well as improvements in cell and organ culture. The actual techniques are equally inclusive ranging from aptamers to zymology.
The journal has been particularly active in:
-Analytical techniques for biological molecules-
Aptamer selection and utilization-
Biosensors-
Chromatography-
Cloning, sequencing and mutagenesis-
Electrochemical methods-
Electrophoresis-
Enzyme characterization methods-
Immunological approaches-
Mass spectrometry of proteins and nucleic acids-
Metabolomics-
Nano level techniques-
Optical spectroscopy in all its forms.
The journal is reluctant to include most drug and strictly clinical studies as there are more suitable publication platforms for these types of papers.
