Summary: In this work, a portable analytical system based on point discharge chemical vapor generation atomic emission spectrometry (PD-CVG-AES) coupling with gold filament enrichment was designed. The highly sensitive analysis of Hg2+ indirectly realized the detection of ascorbic acid (AA). The measurement is based on the fact that Ag+ can decrease the concentration of Hg2+ by forming Ag-Hg amalgam in the presence of the reductant SnCl2, while AA can pre-reduce Ag+ to Ag0, leading to the generation of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs). The developed novel analytical strategy broadens the application of microplasma-based AES and offers a higher level of sensitivity compared to current AA detection techniques.

Summary: The study developed a split aptamer-based sandwich-type ratiometric biosensor for the detection of 17 beta-estradiol (E2) using photoelectrochemical and electrochemical assays. The biosensor utilized split aptamer fragments to recognize E2 and trigger a hybridization chain reaction, resulting in the production of double-stranded DNA labeled with CdTe quantum dots. This DNA complex was able to sensitize CdTe quantum dots and generate response signals for E2 detection. The developed biosensor demonstrated high sensitivity and accuracy with two linear ranges and low detection limits.
