Herein, a polypyrrole-based molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor was developed on a multi-walled carbon nanotube-modified glassy carbon electrode for homocysteine detection in human serum. The sensor was fabricated via drop-coating of sodium dodecyl sulfate-dispersed multi-walled carbon nanotubes, followed by in situ electropolymerization of pyrrole using homocysteine as the template. The morphology, interfacial properties, and electrochemical behavior of the electrode were systematically characterized by scanning electron microscopy and electrochemical techniques. Under optimized conditions, the sensor showed a linear response to homocysteine in the range of 1.0 × 10−10 mol/L to 1.0 × 10−5 mol/L, with a detection limit of 7.12 × 10−11 mol/L (S/N = 3). The sensor also exhibited good selectivity against common interferents, as well as acceptable reproducibility and stability. Recovery tests in human serum yielded recoveries of 91.00~110.50% (average: 100.73%), demonstrating its potential for practical homocysteine analysis in complex biological matrices.","PeriodicalId":10057,"journal":{"name":"Chemosensors","volume":"14 8","pages":"187-187"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148861317","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein, we report that coptisine chloride (COP), a natural isoquinoline alkaloid, acts as an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) sensor enabling dual-responsive fluorescence modulation toward Hep and PRO. Owing to its rigid polycyclic and intrinsically twisted molecular framework, COP displays typical AIE behavior. In a DMSO/PBS mixture (PBS fraction = 99%, v/v), COP forms strongly emissive aggregates with Hep through electrostatically driven complexation, allowing sensitive Hep detection with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.70 μg/mL. Subsequent competitive binding of PRO to Hep disrupts the COP–Hep aggregates, giving rise to fluorescence quenching and reversible PRO sensing (LOD: 0.49 μg/mL). Theoretical calculations together with multiple characterization techniques reveal an aggregation–disaggregation mechanism governing the dual fluorescence modulation. Moreover, COP achieves accurate Hep quantification in spiked diluted human serum, affording satisfactory linearity and recoveries (LOD = 0.71 μg/mL; recoveries 98.3–101.6%). These results demonstrate that COP, a structurally simple natural AIE luminogen, serves as a sustainable, biocompatible, and accessible tool for reversible Hep and PRO analysis in complex media.","PeriodicalId":10057,"journal":{"name":"Chemosensors","volume":"14 2","pages":"51-51"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.mdpi.com/2227-9040/14/2/51/pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147382022","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, a magnetic Fe3O4@MXene nanocomposite was synthesized hydrothermally. The introduction of Fe3O4 not only reduced MXene’s inherent negative surface charge, improving interaction with glucose oxidase (GOD), but also formed a porous structure that enhances enzyme immobilization via physical adsorption. Based on these properties, a Fe3O4@MXene/GOD/Nafion/GCE electrode was fabricated. The composite’s high specific surface area, excellent conductivity, and good biocompatibility significantly promoted the direct electron transfer (DET) of GOD. Meanwhile, the apparent electron transfer rate constant (ks) was calculated to be 9.57 s−1, representing a 1.26-fold enhancement over the MXene-based electrode (7.57 s−1) and confirming faster electron transfer kinetics. The sensor showed a bilinear glucose response in the ranges of 0.05–15 mM, with sensitivity of 120.47 μA·mM−1·cm−2 and a detection limit of 38 μM.

However, the intrinsic quality, influenced by the composition of fundamental components like starch and lignin, varies significantly across different cultivars and origins. This study establishes a comprehensive phytochemical profile of 12 representative Chinese chrysanthemum cultivars by systematically quantifying their starch and lignin contents. Furthermore, it develops and validates a novel, low-cost rapid detection method for starch utilizing smartphone-based colorimetry. The starch content, determined by a colorimetric anthrone-sulfuric acid assay, ranged from 2.68 to 18.69 g/100 g, while the lignin content, measured via the acetyl bromide digestion followed by UV spectrophotometry at 280 nm, varied from 4.21 to 13.63 g/100 g, revealing substantial inter-cultivar differences. For starch analysis, a low-cost, immediate, general-purpose, and high-throughput (LIGHt) smartphone-based colorimetry was implemented. Standard curves constructed from both absorbance and the LIGHt assay demonstrated excellent linearity (R2 > 0.99). The method’s performance was evaluated under different lighting conditions and across various smartphone models. The UV spectrophotometry condenses lignin quantification to a single 30-min digestion–reading cycle, bypassing the two-day Klason protocol and increases efficiency greatly. The work successfully provides a foundational component analysis and validates a portable, high-throughput framework for on-site quality control of plant-based products, demonstrating the strong potential of smartphone-based colorimetry for rapid starch detection and a complementary laboratory-scale lignin assay.","PeriodicalId":10057,"journal":{"name":"Chemosensors","volume":"13 12","pages":"434-434"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.mdpi.com/2227-9040/13/12/434/pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147333879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Current analytical techniques provide partial insights but remain limited in sensitivity, throughput, or resolution. Here we present a multimodal plasmonic nanopore sensor that integrates optical trapping with electrical resistive-pulse sensing to characterize AAV9 capsids at the single-particle level in tens of μL sample volumes and fM range concentrations. As a model system, we employed AAV9 capsids not loaded with DNA, capsids loaded with a self-complementary 4.7 kbp DNA (AAV<sub>scDNA</sub>), and ones loaded with single-stranded 4.7 kbp DNA (AAV<sub>ssDNA</sub>). Ground-truth validation was performed with analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC). Nanosensor data were acquired concurrently for optical step changes (occurring at AAV trapping and un-trapping) both in transmittance and reflectance geometries, and electrical nanopore resistive pulse signatures, making for a total of five data dimensions. The acquired data was then filtered and clustered by Gaussian mixture models (GMMs), accompanied by spectral clustering stability analysis, to successfully separate between AAV species based on their DNA load status (AAV<sub>empty</sub>, AAV<sub>partial</sub>, AAV<sub>full</sub>) and DNA load type (AAV<sub>scDNA</sub> versus AAV<sub>ssDNA</sub>). The motivation for quantifying the AAV<sub>empty</sub> and AAV<sub>partial</sub> population fractions is that they reduce treatment efficacy and increase immunogenicity. Likewise, the motivation to identify AAV<sub>scDNA</sub> population fractions is that these have much higher transfection rates. Importantly, the results showed that the nanosensor could differentiate between AAV<sub>scDNA</sub> and AAV<sub>ssDNA</sub> despite their identical masses. In contrast, AUC could not differentiate between AAV<sub>scDNA</sub> and AAV<sub>ssDNA</sub>. An equimolar mixture of AAV<sub>scDNA</sub>, AAV<sub>ssDNA</sub> and AAV<sub>empty</sub> was also measured with the sensor, and the results showed the expected population fractions, supporting the capacity of the method to differentiate AAV load status in heterogeneous solutions. In addition, less common optical and electrical signal signatures were identified in the acquired data, which were attributed to debris, rapid entry re-entry to the optical trap, or weak optical trap exits, representing critical artifacts to recognize for correct interpretation of the data. Together, these findings establish plasmonic nanopore sensing as a promising platform for quantifying AAV DNA loading status and genome type with the potential to extend ultra-sensitive single-particle characterization beyond the capabilities of existing methods.</p>","PeriodicalId":10057,"journal":{"name":"Chemosensors","volume":"13 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13132496/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147811317","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Photophysical properties investigation revealed that the probe exhibited strong fluorescence emission at 362 nm in DMF/HEPES-NaOH buffer solution (v:v = 1:1, pH 7.4), which underwent a significant fluorescence quenching response (quenching efficiency up to 77%) upon the addition of Cu2+, attributed to the formation of a 1:1 PYB-Cu2+ complex (binding constant K = 799.65 M−1). The probe showed excellent selectivity for Cu2+ over other common metal ions (Ba2+, Na+, Mg2+, Zn2+, Cd2+, Ca2+, Mn2+, Pb2+, Hg2+, Fe3+, Co2+), with a low detection limit of 8.35 × 10−7 M, which is well below the maximum allowable concentration of Cu2+ in drinking water specified by the World Health Organization (WHO). Furthermore, a portable fluorescent test strip based on PYB was successfully fabricated, enabling rapid and visual detection of Cu2+ under UV light.
