    Abstract Glycerol is a clinical biomarker of lipolysis that is mainly produced by adipose tissues. Blood glycerol content increases in pathological conditions such as metabolic and cardiovascular diseases or cancer cachexia, but also in response to energetic stress such as physical exercise. Accurate glycerol monitoring is therefore important in a range of healthcare contexts. However, current methods available for the quantification of glycerol are expensive, time-consuming, and require the extraction of plasma from blood, from which blood glycerol content is then extrapolated. Here, we report the development of a new point-of-care glycerometer device, DietSee, based on a strip-type biosensor that enables the quantification of glycerol directly from whole blood in 6 s. The performance of the biosensor was first evaluated using buffer solutions and spiked human and mouse plasma samples, and its response was compared with that of the gold-standard colorimetric method. The results obtained using DietSee correlated strongly with those from the reference method and demonstrated a linear response to glycerol levels across a wide range of concentrations (40-750 μM) that were representative of those in the human body. Next, the biosensor was validated using spiked human blood samples over a range of 30-55% hematocrit; it also demonstrated a strong correlation with reference measurements under these conditions (R

    Abstract During the past decade, the number of terrorism acts has increased and the need for efficient explosive detectors has become an urgent worldwide necessity. A prototype, NebulexTM, was recently developed in our laboratory. Basically, it couples the solubilization of an analyte from the atmosphere by a nebulization process and in-situ detection. This article presents the development and integration of an electrochemical sensor for the detection of nitromethane, a common chemical product that can be used to make an improvised explosive device. A gold screen-printed electrode was used in a flow-cell and a detection limit of 4.5μM was achieved by square wave voltammetry. The detection method was also determined to be selective toward nitromethane over a large panel of interfering compounds. Detection tests with the NebulexTM were thus carried out using a custom-made calibrated nitromethane vapor generator. Detection times of less than one minute were obtained for nitromethane contents of 8 and 90ppmv. Further measurements were performed in a room-measurement configuration leading to detection times in the range of 1–2min, clearly demonstrating the system׳s efficiency under quasi-real conditions.

    Abstract Here, we report on the use of electrochemical methods for the detection of volatiles fatty acids (VFAs), namely acetic acid. We used tetra-tert-butyl phthalocyanine (PcH₂-tBu) as the sensing material and investigated its electroanalytical properties by means of cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV). To realize the electrochemical sensing system, the PcH₂-tBu has been dropcast-deposited on carbon (C) orgold (Au)screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) and characterized by cyclic voltammetry and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The SEM analysis reveals that the PcH₂-tBu forms mainly aggregates on the SPEs. The modified electrodes are used for the detection of acetic acid and present a linear current increase when the acetic acid concentration increases. The Cmodified electrode presents a limit of detection (LOD) of 25.77 mM in the range of 100 mM-400 mM, while the Aumodified electrode presents an LOD averaging 40.89 mM in the range of 50 mM-300 mM. When the experiment is realized in a buffered condition, theCmodified electrode presents a lower LOD, which averagesthe 7.76 mM. A pronounced signal decay attributed to an electrode alteration is observed in the case of the gold electrode. This electrode alteration severely affects the coating stability. This alteration is less perceptible in the case of the carbon electrode.

    Abstract In the course of developing ultrasensitive and quantitative electrochemical point-of-care analytical tools for genetic detection of infectious diseases, osmium(ii) metallointercalators were revealed to be suitable and efficient redox probes to monitor the in vitro DNA amplification [Defever etal, Anal. Chem., 2011, 83, 1815-1821]. In this work, we thus propose a complete computational protocol in order to evaluate the affinity between Os(ii) complexes with double-stranded DNA. This protocol is based on molecular dynamics, with the parametrization of the GAFF force field for the Os(ii) complexes presenting an octahedral environment with polypyridine ligands, and QM/QM' calculations to evaluate the binding energy. For three Os(ii) probes and different binding sites, molecular dynamics simulations and interaction energies calculated at the QM/QM' level are successively discussed and compared to experimental data in order to identify the most stable binding sites. The computational protocol we propose should then be used to design more efficient Os(ii) metallointercalators.
