However, simultaneous detection of multi-directional forces is still a challenge for current research. Herein, a capacitive flexible pressure sensor based on a sandwich structure for three-dimensional force detection is proposed. The fabrication process of the sensor array is straightforward, capable of effectively distinguishing between normal and tangential forces. Polyimide (PI) serves as the flexible substrate for depositing the metal electrode pattern, while Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) acts as the intermediate dielectric layer material and the three-dimensional force conduction block. Through a comparative study of the thickness of the hollow dielectric layer, a pressure sensor with superior performance was prepared, featuring high sensitivity across a wide working range. Test results demonstrate its capability to detect normal forces ranging from 0 to 46 N (0–520 kPa) with a sensitivity of 0.442 N<sup>−1</sup> (0.031 kPa<sup>−1</sup>) and tangential forces from 0 to 10 N with a sensitivity of 0.08 N<sup>−1</sup> (X-axis) and 0.07 N<sup>−1</sup> (Y-axis). The designed acquisition system can simultaneously gather data from 6 sensor arrays, totaling 240 channels, with a response time of 11 ms.

A method for the fabrication of nickel nanowire arrays (NWAs) coated with a thin layer of chitosan for the non-enzymatic detection of glucose is herein reported. The method is based on the electrodeposition of nickel into anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) templates, followed by a novel chitosan coating procedure. The nickel and nickel chitosan NWAs were characterized via electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and electrochemical techniques. Electrochemical testing using cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry demonstrated that the chitosan coating enhanced the selectivity and stability of the electrochemical sensor for glucose detection, even in the presence of interfering species. Additionally, the coating improved the sensor's sensitivity by 46.39 % and expanded its linear detection range from 3.85 mM to 4.37 mM. The chitosan coating also helped to retain these characteristics even after exposure to physiologically accurate samples and prevented biofouling after exposure to proteins.

The development of sensitive and accurate detection methods is critical for early diagnosis, disease management, and outbreak control. In a previous study, we developed and optimized a nanobased detection methodology called Magnetic Immuno-Capture Followed by Flow Virometry (MICaFVi) using virus-mimicking silica nanoparticles and MERS-CoV/SARS-CoV-2 pseudoviral particles. In the present study, we have extended this methodology to evaluate its specificity and sensitivity for detecting wild-type MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 in human and camel samples. Our results demonstrated that MICaFVi successfully detected MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 viruses with high sensitivity and specificity, although it showed reduced performance for samples with Ct values of 30 or lower compared to qPCR. Despite some limitations in detection speed and sensitivity, MICaFVi represents a significant advancement in diagnostic methodologies by combining nanotechnology with flow cytometry. Additionally, we adapted the MICaFVi methodology to simultaneously detect MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 in a single multiplex assay. The successful implementation of this advanced detection approach has important implications for improving early detection, surveillance, and control of both current and future viral or bacterial pandemics.

DNA extraction from a target pathogen is one of the most important procedures for accurate analysis of the disease-causative pathogen. In this study, a novel 3D-printed electrophoretic DNA extraction microdevice (3D-EDEM) was developed using a digital light processing-stereolithography (DLP-SL) for point-of-care analysis. The 3D-EDEM consists of a source chamber for a bacteria lysate reservoir, a sink chamber for an elution solution container, a hydrogel channel embracing capillary channels that act as a sieving matrix for size-based separation, and two electrode holders for supplying electrical current. Prior to fabricating the 3D-EDEM, UV-curable resin was prepared by using a poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEG-DA), Irgarcure 819 (IRG), and 2-isopropyl thioxanthone (ITX) as a monomer, a photoinitiator, and a photosensitizer, respectively.

Their persistence and potential to adsorb heavy metals raise significant concerns regarding water quality and ecosystem health. Understanding the interaction between MPs and heavy metals is crucial for assessing environmental risks and developing remediation strategies. In this study, we use electroanalytical techniques to investigate the adsorption of heavy metal ions— Cr³⁺, Zn²⁺, and Ni²⁺—by polystyrene MPs with different surface functionalizations: carboxyl, amino, and unfunctionalized. We conducted electrodeposition of metal ions on a gold ultramicroelectrode both before and after mixing with MPs. Following this, we used anodic stripping voltammetry to measure the change in the electrodeposited charge (ΔQ). This charge difference, observed before and after the interaction of ions with MPs, was analyzed to understand the adsorption kinetics and dynamics. Our experiments revealed that carboxyl-functionalized MPs exhibited the highest ΔQ due to strong electrostatic attraction with the metal ions, with values 1.67 ×, 1.50 ×, and 1.22 × greater than those for amino-MPs for Cr³⁺, Zn²⁺, and Ni²⁺, respectively. Amino-MPs displayed considerable ion adsorption, suggesting poor electrostatic repulsion between two positively charged entities. Interestingly, unfunctionalized MPs, which had a negative surface charge similar to carboxyl-MPs, showed different adsorption characteristics, with lower ΔQ values for all metal ions. This study underscores the significant role of surface functionalization on the adsorption efficiency and kinetics of heavy metal ions by MPs. It also demonstrates the utility of electroanalytical techniques in understanding metal ion-MP interactions, offering insights into potential environmental impacts and remediation strategies, as well as in developing electrochemical sensors for detecting heavy metal ions adsorbed on MPs.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":426,"journal":{"name":"Sensors and Actuators Reports","volume":"8 ","pages":"Article 100241"},"PeriodicalIF":6.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666053924000572/pdfft?md5=404d6c1773b095ba571af67154ce15a6&pid=1-s2.0-S2666053924000572-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142147966","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
