Literature Information

Iron proteins are of great scientific interest due to their importance as an excellent biomarker for human diseases. Ferritin (Fe3+), being an iron-rich blood protein, is related to various diseases like anemia and cancer. For the first time, we have developed a highly sensitive and selective ferritin biosensor based on fluorescent oxygen-deficient zinc oxide nanosheets through hydrothermal and probe-ultrasonication combined methods. The fluorescence study showed an intense bluish-green fluorescence at λex = 370 nm, after optimization at different excitation wavelengths. In addition, the fluorescence of ZnO1−x nanosheets can be efficiently quenched due to electron transfer reactions in order to achieve quantification analysis. The limit of detection (LOD) was calculated to be 0.015 nM (7.2 ng mL−1) with high linearity (R2 = 0.9930). In addition, the real-world application of the proposed biosensor has been performed on human blood serum samples in the presence of various interfering analytes showing high selectivity and sensitivity with a regression value R2 = 0.9980 indicating the current approach is an excellent biosensor platform.

Journal of Materials Chemistry B

Journal of Materials Chemistry A, B & C cover high quality studies across all fields of materials chemistry. The journals focus on those theoretical or experimental studies that report new understanding, applications, properties and synthesis of materials. The journals have a strong history of publishing quality reports of interest to interdisciplinary communities and providing an efficient and rigorous service through peer review and publication. The journals are led by an international team of Editors-in-Chief and Associate Editors who are all active researchers in their fields. Journal of Materials Chemistry A, B & C are separated by the intended application of the material studied. Broadly, applications in energy and sustainability are of interest to Journal of Materials Chemistry A, applications in biology and medicine are of interest to Journal of Materials Chemistry B, and applications in optical, magnetic and electronic devices are of interest to Journal of Materials Chemistry C. More than one Journal of Materials Chemistry journal may be suitable for certain fields and researchers are encouraged to submit their paper to the journal that they feel best fits for their particular article. Example topic areas within the scope of Journal of Materials Chemistry B are listed below. This list is neither exhaustive nor exclusive. Antifouling coatings Biocompatible materials Bioelectronics Bioimaging Biomimetics Biomineralisation Bionics Biosensors Diagnostics Drug delivery Gene delivery Immunobiology Nanomedicine Regenerative medicine & Tissue engineering Scaffolds Soft robotics Stem cells Therapeutic devices image block All articles published in Journal of Materials Chemistry B from 2019 onwards will be indexed in MEDLINE®. Articles that primarily focus on providing insight into the underlying science and performance of biomaterials within a biological environment are more suited to our companion journal, Biomaterials Science.
