Journal ArticleDOI
Electrochemical Aptatoxisensor Responses on Nanocomposites containing electro-deposited silver nanoparticles on poly(propyleneimine) dendrimer for the detection of microcystin-lr in freshwater
Mawethu Pascoe Bilibana,Avril R. Williams,Candice Rassie,Christopher E. Sunday,Hlamulo Makelane,Lindsay Wilson,Nomaphelo Ntshongontshi,Abongile N. Jijana,Milua Masikini,Priscilla G. L. Baker,Emmanuel I. Iwuoha +10 more
TL;DR: In the detection of MC-LR in water samples, the aptatoxisensor proved to be highly sensitive and stable, performed well in the presence of interfering analog and was comparable to the conventional analytical techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Ultra-sensitive Electrochemical Detection of As(III) in Ground Water Using Disposable L-cysteine/Lipoic Acid Functionalised Gold Nanoparticle Modified Screen-Printed Electrodes
TL;DR: In this paper, an ultrasensitive electrochemical sensor to detect arsenic (III), a highly toxic heavy metal ion, has been successfully developed, which is composed of L-cysteine (Lcyst) molecules conjugated to reduced lipoic acid (rLA) capped gold nanoparticles.
Impedimetric Response of a Label-Free Genosensor Prepared on a 3-Mercaptopropionic Acid Capped Gallium Selenide Nanocrystal Modified Gold Electrode
Peter M. Ndangili,Abongile N. Jijana,Rasaq A. Olowu,Stephen Mailu,Fanelwa R. Ngece,Avril Williams,Tesfaye Waryo,Priscilla G. L. Baker,Emmanuel I. Iwuoha +8 more
TL;DR: The impedimetric genosensor was able to discriminate between complementary, non-complementary and 3-base mismatched target sequences and maintained 87 % of its response towards the target DNA after one month.
Journal ArticleDOI
3-Mercaptopropionic Acid Capped Ga2Se3 nanocrystal-CYP3A4 Biosensor for the Determination of 17-Alpha-Ethinyl Estradiol in Water
Peter M. Ndangili,Ezo Nxusani,Rasaq A. Olowu,Abongile N. Jijana,Tesfaye Waryo,Nazeem Jahed,Rachel Fanelwa Ajayi,Priscilla G. L. Baker,Emmanuel I. Iwuoha +8 more
TL;DR: The results revealed that 3-Mecarptopropanoic acid capped Gallium Selenide nanocrystals can be used in conjunction with CYP3A4 as an electrode modifier for the detection of 17-alpha ethinyl estradiol.
Journal ArticleDOI
A gallium telluride quantum dots bioelectrode system for human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (Her2/neu) oncogene signalling
Xolile Fuku,Baljit Singh,Rachel Fanelwa Ajayi,Abongile N. Jijana,Priscilla G. L. Baker,Eithne Dempsey,Emmanuel I. Iwuoha +6 more
TL;DR: A quantum dots (QDs) -based genosensor for Her2/neu oncogene was developed with gallium telluride QDs and amine-terminated probe ssDNA that is complementary to the DNA sequence of a section of the ERF gene of HER-2/NEu.
