1. INTRODUCTION Because of their remarkable structural and functional properties
biopolymers chitin and chitosan (Figure 1) have received much attention in fundamental …

Mycotoxins contamination in both food and feed is inevitable. Mycotoxin toxicity in foodstuff
can occur at very low concentrations necessitating early availability of sensitive and reliable …

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is a sensitive technique for the analysis of
the interfacial properties related to biorecognition events such as reactions catalyzed by …

The hybrid conducting polymers (HCPs) possesses unusual properties of both conducting
polymers (CPs) and organic/inorganic nanoparticles, which drawn much attraction to the …

This review discusses the current state of electrochemical biosensors in the determination of
mycotoxins in foods. Mycotoxins are highly toxic secondary metabolites produced by molds …

Interest in chitosan, a biodegradable, nontoxic, non-antigenic, and biocompatible
biopolymer isolated from shellfish, arises from the fact that chitosans are reported to exhibit …

Economic and ecofriendly surface modification of nanoparticles is a consistent challenge for
agricultural purposes. Application of surface modified greatly reduces the risks of …

In this study, we have developed an electrochemical immunosensor for the detection of
prostate-specific antigen (PSA) based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and a chitosan (CHI) …

In this article, palladium (Pd) nanoparticles were deposited on a smart surface composed of
a synthetic polymer, a natural polymer and a magnetic inorganic material, polyaniline …

In recent years, development and progress in modern packaging resulting from degradable
natural resources have grown remarkably. In this study, chitosan–polyaniline film was …
