Abstract The application of a novel Cd(II) ion imprinted polymer coated on multiwall carbon nanotubes was investigated for preconcentration and determination of low levels of Cd ions. This novel sorbentwas characterized by scanning electron microscopy, thermal gravimetric/differential thermal analysis, elemental analysis, and FTIR spectrometry. Effects of various factors, such as pH of the sample solution, eluent (type, concentration, and volume), and flow rates of the sample and eluent, were evaluated in this study. To investigate the selectivity of the sorbent toward Cd(II) ions, the effects of a variety of ions on preconcentration and recovery of Cd(II) ions were investigated. TheLOD was 1.3 ng/mL; the recovery and RSD of the method were 96.4% and below 3.1%, respectively. Validation of the method was performed by analyzing some standard reference materials with certified Cd(II) concentrations. Finally, the sorbent was applied for separation and determination of Cd(II)ions in food samples.

In this study, a thiol-modified aptamer was immobilized on a gold nanoparticle-modified molybdenum disulfide composite material (MoS2@AuNPs), which could remove the interference of physical adsorption and reduce false positive signals.

Background: Neurotransmitters are chemical messengers with crucial implication in human body. Perturbations in concentration of neurotransmitters can affect a multitude of mental and physical functions, such as heart rate, sleep, appetite and mood. Thus, the sensitive detection of these compounds is a real need for a new generation of treatments. Method: Two important neurotransmitters namely dopamine and serotonin were investigated in this study for simultaneous detection using differential pulse voltammetry. The optimization of several surface parameters were performed in order to choose the best electrode material for electrochemical oxidation of targets. Screen printed electrodes based on carbon, gold and platinum and modified with different nanomaterials (carbon nanotubes, gold nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes decorated with gold nanoparticles) were tested. Results: Carbon-based electrodes modified with multiwall carbon nanotubes and gold nanoparticles were chosen after the optimization protocol. Linear correlations between the analytic signals obtained and the concentration of dopamine and serotonin respectively were obtained with good sensitivity and the detection limits were 0.3 µM for dopamine and 0.8 µM for serotonin with no significant reciprocal influences. Selectivity studies were also performed, as well as tests in real samples (e.g. human serum, tears and saliva) complex matrices for which acceptable recoveries were obtained. Conclusion: The results obtained within this study can be considered as an important starting point for the development of a fast and simple method for selective and highly sensitive detection of neurotransmitters, with possible applications in the diagnosis of different pathologies and for monitoring the effectiveness of the applied drug treatment.
