Innovations in point-of-care electrochemical detection of pyocyanin

Electrospun nanofibers synthesis enhancing the activity of energy storage devices/electrochemical and biosensor applications

“…Recent research looked at the ability of the nanofibrous sorbent to remove a variety of oils, including diesel, crude oil, gasoline, silicone oil, as well as nonpolar organic solvents, such toluene and m-xylene [209]. Making electrospun stringy mats with both hydrophobic and oleophilic characteristics might have assisted them with working great as sponges of oil from stable water in oil emulsion [210]. Both PS and PVDF nanofibrous sorbents' mechanical qualities significantly improved and showed oleophilic and hydrophobic characteristics.…”

Direct Laser-Functionalized Au-LIG Sensors for Real-time Electrochemical Monitoring of Response of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilms to Antibiotics

“…One of the most common methods for detecting/studying P. aeruginosa is based on monitoring and detection of its phenazines, in particular pyocyanin (PYO). [1][2][3][4] It has been shown that cells start secreting PYO when P. aeruginosa reaches the stationary growth phase. The functions of PYO include serving as a signaling molecule for quorum sensing (QS) -a communication strategy between bacteria cells to control their density, adjust gene expression, and support biofilm formation.…”

“…21,22 Electrochemical sensing approaches are considered as an attractive alternative to conventional methods for detecting phenazines (which are redox active) produced by P. aeruginosa because of a number of benefits, such as simplicity of operation, low cost, fast detection time, and high sensitivity. 1 Several electrochemical sensors have been developed for rapid and quantitative detection of phenazines. 2,21,23,24 Among different materials, carbon-based electrodesstandalone or functionalized with nanoparticles such as gold, which enhance the active surface area of the electrode and facilitate electron transfer rates between phenazines and the electrode surfacehave been used extensively in the construction of electrochemical sensors for phenazine detection.…”
