Advanced Materials for Immunosensing of Pharmaceutical and Drug Compounds

Real-time and accurate levels of pharmaceuticals undertake critical effects in the therapy process. Thus, reliable detection of pharmaceuticals is important for regulating the proper concentration of them to enhance the effectiveness and to decrease possible side effects. However, the development of new reliable sensory systems is the main prerequisite for the mentioned aims. Immunosensors can be regarded as an effective tool due to their sensitivity and unique specificity originating from the intrinsic nature of the antigen-antibody interaction. This review reports material tendencies in the development of immunosensors for pharmaceuticals (veterinary and human) which have been reported in the last few years. Carbon-based (graphene, graphene oxide, carbon nanotubes, etc.), gold, and magnetic materials are the main materials for the fabrication of pharmaceutical immunosensors. Also, this review reports benefits and limitations on the reported immunosensor and mechanism and analytical performance of the immunoplatforms to address future researches.

Demand for wearable and portable electronic devices has increased, raising interest in electronic textiles (e-textiles). E-textiles have been produced using various materials including carbon nanotubes, graphene, and graphene oxide. Among the materials in this minireview, we introduce e-textiles fabricated with graphene oxide (GO) coating, using commercial textiles. GO-coated cotton, nylon, polyester, and silk are reported. The GO-coated commercial textiles were reduced chemically and thermally. The maximum e-textile conductivity of about 10 S/cm was achieved in GO-coated silk. We also introduce an e-textile made of uncoated silk. The silk-based e-textiles were obtained using a simple heat treatment with axial tension. The conductivity of the e-textiles was over 100 S/cm.

ABSTRACTNanogenerators (NGs) have great potential to solve the problems of energy depletion and environmental pollution. Here, two types of flexible nanogenerators (FNGs) based on graphene oxide (GO) and multiwall carbon nanotubes (MW-CNTs) are presented. The peak output voltage and current of GO based FNG reached up to 2 V and 30 nA, respectively, under 15 N force at 1 Hz. Moreover, the output voltage could be improved to 34.4 V when the frequency was increased to 10 Hz. It was also found the output voltage increased from 0.1 V to 2.0 V using a released GO structure. The other FNG was made by MW-CNTs mixed with ZnO nanoparticles (NPs). Its output voltage and power reached up to 7.5 V and 18.75 mW, respectively, which is much larger than that of bare ZnO based FNG. Furthermore, a peak voltage of 30 V could be gained by stamping one’s foot on the FNG. Finally, a modified NG was fabricated using four springs and two flexible layers. As a result, the voltage and power reached up to 9 V and 27mW, respectively. These works may bring out broad applications in energy harvesting.
