Copper-modified peanut shell biochar-based electrochemical sensor for the detection of glufosinate ammonium in food and environmental samples.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
A novel electrochemical sensing platform was developed using copper-modified and alkali-activated peanut shell biochar (CuPS-OH) for the selective and sensitive detection of glufosinate ammonium (GLA) in food and environmental samples. The sensor operates on the basis of solid-state electrochemical signal amplification from in situ-formed CuCl, which is generated via the reaction between surface Cu species and Cl⁻. GLA specifically binds to copper active sites and competitively suppresses the CuCl signal, enabling quantitative detection. Material characterization confirmed that alkaline treatment significantly improved the conductivity and electroactive surface area of the biochar composite. Under optimized conditions, the sensor exhibited a wide linear range of 0.2-200 µM and a low detection limit of 58 nM. It demonstrated outstanding anti-interference capability, stability, and accuracy in real-sample analyses (grape, river water, and soil), with recoveries ranging from 96.0% to 103.6%. This work offers a feasible and efficient strategy for developing high-performance biochar-based electrochemical sensors applicable to food safety and environmental monitoring.
