Biomass-derived carbon materials (BDCMs) have garnered numerous research interests due to their conspicuous electrochemical merits, which makes them promising candidates for electrode modification materials in electrochemical sensors. This review focuses on the recent progress in BDCM-based electrochemical sensors. We summarize the main synthesis methods and properties of BDCMs and their electrochemical sensing applications in the detection of environmental pollutants, drugs, and biomolecules. This review also emphasizes the advantages and disadvantages of each preparation method, as well as the limitations in detecting the target substance. Furthermore, this review discusses the current challenges and future prospects for advancing biomass-derived carbon materials-based electrochemical sensors.

This study advances our understanding of the Jiangnan Orogenic Belt by integrating high-precision geochronological data with interpretations of sedimentary and tectonic environments. Specifically, it addresses the controversy over the geological significance, origins, and tectonic significance of the Shengong Unconfomity: at the base of the Luojiamen Formation. This paper shows that the formation developed over four stages with the primary source of detritus lying in a volcanic arc to the south. The study also reassesses the “unconformity” between the Luojiamen Formation of the Heshangzhen Group and the Zhangcun Formation of the Shuangxiwu Group, concluding that it does not demarcate the end of the orogenic collision between the Cathaysia and Yangtze blocks.
