Abstract
Efficient, accurate, and economical detection of pathogenic bacteria is crucial in ensuring food safety and preventing foodborne illnesses. How to fulfill the highly sensitive and simultaneous detection of multiple trace pathogenic bacteria is a big challenge. In this work, capillary electrophoresis coupled with a cyclic multiple primer generation rolling circle amplification (cyclic MPG-RCA) was studied for highly sensitive and simultaneous detection of three kinds of pathogenic bacteria. The cyclic MPG-RCA was based on a carefully designed clover-shaped DNA probe, in which three "leaves" corresponded to three types of aimed pathogenic bacteria: Shigella dysenteriae (S. dysenteriae), Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhi (S. Typhi), and Vibrio parahaemolyticus (V. parahaemolyticus). Under the optimal experimental conditions, the limits of detection (S/N = 3) of this method for bacterial target DNA were 11.4 amol·L-1 (S. dysenteriae), 4.88 amol·L-1 (S. Typhi), and 14.9 amol·L-1 (V. parahaemolyticus), and the conversion concentrations for the target bacteria were 10 colony-forming units (CFU)·mL-1 (S. dysenteriae), 3 CFU·mL-1 (S. Typhi), and 12 CFU·mL-1 (V. parahaemolyticus). This method had been applied to the detection of tap water samples with good results, which proved that it could be used as an effective tool for trace pathogenic bacteria monitoring in foods, environments, and medicines.

Abstract
Efficient, accurate and economical detection of pathogenic bacteria is crucial in ensuring food safety and preventing foodborne illnesses. In this study, a capillary electrophoresis coupled laser-induced fluorescence assay (CE-LIF) was developed for the detection of Escherichia coli (E. coli) by detecting its specific DNA. The CE-LIF was assisted by both online enrichment and offline amplification to improve the detection sensitivity of bacterial DNA. Here the online amplification was performed by large volume sample stacking (LVSS), while the offline amplification was nicking endonuclease signal amplification (NESA). Under the optimal experimental conditions, the detection limit of bacterial target DNA was 2.5 fM, and the conversion concentration of E. coli was 3 CFU · mL-1. The method had been applied to the detection of commercially available skim milk samples with good results, which proved that it could be used as an effective tool for food and environmental bacteria monitoring.

Abstract
The biogenic amines (BAs) synephrine (SNP), phenylephrine (PEP), tyramine (TYR), and octopamine (OCT) may be present in products widely consumed for weight loss, muscle power, and in energy supplements. Considering the toxicity of these BAs at high levels and their biomarker role in some human pathologies, their monitoring in urine can be of great help in the detection of abusive consumption or disease. In this work, a combination of dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (DLLME) with ultra-high performance liquid chromatography and quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS) for the simultaneous determination of four aromatic BAs in human urine is presented. The sample treatment included a previous derivatization step with dansyl chloride to achieve the highest extraction efficiency in the DLLME procedure for which a mixture of 350 μL of chloroform and 2 mL of ethanol was added to 5 mL of derivatized urine. Limits of detection were in the 0.54–3.6 µg L−1 range. Method precision and trueness were estimated at two concentration levels and were in the 3.4–10.2% and 93.6–114% ranges, respectively. The analysis of nine urine samples showed concentration levels for TYR between 52 and 304 µg L−1. Non-targeted analysis of the samples was undertaken to control the presence of other BAs and related metabolites, and none of these species was detected.

Abstract
Histamine released by activated basophils has become an important biomarker and therapeutic target in the development of allergic diseases. To date, several gold nanoparticle (AuNP)-based nanosensors have been reported for histamine detection in foods. However, rapid, highly sensitive and direct detection of histamine in allergic diseases is still lacking due to the complexity of the physical environment. Herein, we developed a novel nanosensor for colorimetric visualization of histamine in activated basophils by simply coupling dithiobis(succinimidylpropionate) (DSP) on the surface of AuNPs (DSP-AuNPs). The DSP moiety serves as a linker and can react with the aliphatic amino group of histamine, and the imidazole ring of histamine can selectively bind with Au by means of p-p conjugation, thus inducing the aggregation of AuNPs. In this study, we experimentally proved that DSP-AuNPs showed good sensitivity and selectivity to histamine among various amino acids, including histidine. Additionally, this nanosensor displayed a rapid response to histamine with a linear range of 0.8-2.5 μM, and the limit of detection (LOD) was 0.014 μM, which is a relatively low LOD in comparison with those of other AuNP-based nanosensors. Finally, DSP-AuNPs are used, for the first time, to successfully detect endogenous histamine changes in activated basophils. Therefore, our work may provide a promising strategy to monitor histamine levels in the basophil activation test.

Abstract
Pressure-assisted electrokinetic injection (PAEKI) was applied for stacking of positively charged biogenic amines (BAs) to improve the sensitivity of capillary electrophoresis (CE). It is well known that the essential step for PAEKI is finding a stationary state of the running buffer such that the movement of the running buffer due to electroosmotic flow (EOF) is counterbalanced by external pressure in the opposite direction of the EOF under a given electric field. In order to find the balance point systematically and integrally, we studied the velocity of the whole BGE in the capillary by the impetus of opposite direction pressure (-0.1 to -0.6 psi), and the velocity of EOF with different voltages. According to the two sets of linear data, the EOF of CE coupled with PAEKI could be counterbalanced at the opposite direction pressure (-0.1 psi) and voltage (7.8 kV). In this study, the injection time was extended up to 0.35 min for all BAs and 0.70 min for the direct ultraviolet (UV) detection of BAs. Compared with hydrodynamic injection (HDI), the enrichment factors for sample injection times of 0.35 min and 0.70 min were 480-fold and 970-fold, respectively. The limits of detection (LODs) (S/N = 3) of indirect and direct UV detection were respectively 8.7-24.3 nmol L-1 and 0.4-4.5 nmol L-1, which reaches the sensitivity of high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrophotometry (HPLC-MS). With appropriate sample dilution, PAEKI can be used in the analysis of BAs in chicken.

Abstract
A two-dimensional capillary isotachophoresis-capillary zone electrophoresis method hyphenated with tandem mass spectrometry was developed and validated for ultrasensitive quantification of serotonin in real human urine samples. Under optimal conditions, the separation was achieved within 12 min (including on-line sample preparation) with the limit of detection of 34 pg mL-1 (due to a large volume sample injection, here 10 µL, and isotachophoretic preconcentration). This concentration limit represents the lowest value for serotonin in comparison to other previously published separation methods employing mass spectrometry detection and applied to urine matrices. Thanks to high orthogonality, on-line concentration and clean-up effects of this approach, other excellent validation parameters such as linearity (coefficient of determination > 0.99), inter-day and intra-day precision (relative standard deviations 3.5-12.2%), accuracy (relative errors within 99-109.4%), and recovery (96-102%) could be easily obtained too. To demonstrate applicability of the method, we monitored serotonin levels in various real samples (from a healthy volunteer and clinical ones). The determined levels, normalized on the creatinine concentrations, were in the range of 6.81-12.86 ng mmol-1 creatinine This advanced method is suggested for an effective, reliable, high sample throughput, and low cost routine clinical screening or targeted metabolomic studies of serotonin in urine samples.

Abstract
The long-term consumption of food with pesticide residues has harmful effects on human health and the demand for pesticide detection technology tends to be miniaturized and instant. To this end, we demonstrated the first application of indirectly detecting two carbamate pesticides, metolcarb and carbaryl, by gold nanoparticle-modified indium tin oxide electrode in dual-channel microchip electrophoresis and amperometric detection (ME-AD) system. m-Cresol and α-naphthol were obtained after pesticide hydrolysis in alkaline solution, and then separated and detected by ME-AD. Parameters including the detection potential and running buffer concentration and pH were optimized to improve the detection sensitivity and separation efficiency. Under the optimal conditions, the two analytes were completely separated within 80 s. m-Cresol and α-naphthol presented a wide linear range from 1 to 100 μM, with limits of detection of 0.16 μM and 0.34 μM, respectively (S/N = 3). Moreover, the reliability of this system was demonstrated by analyzing metolcarb and carbaryl in spiked vegetable samples.

Abstract
The importance of histamine in various physiological functions and its involvement in allergenic responses make this small molecule one of the most studied biogenic amines. Even though a variety of chromatography-based methods have been described for its analytical determination, the disadvantages they present in terms of cost, analysis time, and low portability limit their suitability for in situ routine testing. In this work, we sought to identify histamine-binding aptamers that could then be exploited for the development of rapid, facile, and sensitive assays for histamine detection suitable for point-of-need analysis. A classic SELEX process was designed employing magnetic beads for target immobilization and the selection was completed after ten rounds. Following Next Generation Sequencing of the last selection rounds from both positive and counter selection magnetic beads, several sequences were identified and initially screened using an apta-PCR affinity assay (APAA). Structural and functional characterization of the candidates resulted in the identification of the H2 aptamer. The high binding affinity of the H2 aptamer to histamine was validated using four independent assays ( KD of 3-34 nM). Finally, the H2 aptamer was used for the development of a magnetic beads-based competitive assay for the detection of histamine in both buffer and synthetic urine, achieving very low limits of detection of 18 pM and 76 pM, respectively, while no matrix effects were observed. These results highlight the suitability of the strategy followed for identifying small molecule-binding aptamers and the compatibility of the selected H2 aptamer with the analysis of biological samples, thus facilitating the development of point-of-care devices for routine testing. Ongoing work is focused on extending the application of the H2 aptamer to the detection of spoilage in meat, fish, and beverages, as well as evaluating the affinity of truncated forms of the aptamer.

Abstract
Biogenic amines (BAs) are bioactive endogenous compounds which play a significant physiological role in many cell processes like cell proliferation and differentiation, signal transduction and membrane stability. Likewise, they are important in the regulation of body temperature, the increase/decrease of blood pressure or intake of nutrition, as well as in the synthesis of nucleic acids and proteins, hormones and alkaloids. Additionally, it was confirmed that these compounds can be considered as useful biomarkers for the diagnosis, therapy and prognosis of several neuroendocrine and cardiovascular disorders, including neuroendocrine tumours (NET), schizophrenia and Parkinson's Disease. Due to the fact that BAs are chemically unstable, light-sensitive and possess a high tendency for spontaneous oxidation and decomposition at high pH values, their determination is a real challenge. Moreover, their concentrations in biological matrices are extremely low. These issues make the measurement of BA levels in biological matrices problematic and the application of reliable bioanalytical methods for the extraction and determination of these molecules is needed. This article presents an overview of the most recent trends in the quantification of BAs in human samples with a special focus on liquid chromatography (LC), gas chromatography (GC) and capillary electrophoresis (CE) techniques. Thus, new approaches and technical possibilities applied in these methodologies for the assessment of BA profiles in human samples and the priorities for future research are reported and critically discussed. Moreover, the most important applications of LC, GC and CE in pharmacology, psychology, oncology and clinical endocrinology in the area of the analysis of BAs for the diagnosis, follow-up and monitoring of the therapy of various health disorders are presented and critically evaluated.

Abstract
An advanced two-dimensional capillary electrophoresis method, based on on-line combination of capillary isotachophoresis and capillary zone electrophoresis with cyclodextrin additive in background electrolyte, was developed for effective determination of serotonin in human urine. Hydrodynamically closed separation system and large bore capillaries (300–800 µm) were chosen for the possibility to enhance the sample load capacity, and, by that, to decrease limit of detection. Isotachophoresis served for the sample preseparation, defined elimination of sample matrix constituents (sample clean up), and preconcentration of the analyte. Cyclodextrin separation environment enhanced separation selectivity of capillary zone electrophoresis. In this way, serotonin could be successfully separated from the rest of the sample matrix constituents migrating in capillary zone electrophoresis step so that human urine could be directly (i.e., without any external sample preparation) injected into the analyzer. The proposed method was successfully validated, showing favorable parameters of sensitivity (limit of detection for serotonin was 2.32 ng·mL−1), linearity (regression coefficient higher than 0.99), precision (repeatability of the migration time and peak area were in the range of 0.02–1.17% and 5.25–7.88%, respectively), and recovery (ranging in the interval of 90.0–93.6%). The developed method was applied for the assay of the human urine samples obtained from healthy volunteers. The determined concentrations of serotonin in such samples were in the range of 12.4–491.2 ng·mL−1 that was in good agreement with literature data. This advanced method represents a highly effective, reliable, and low-cost alternative for the routine determination of serotonin as a biomarker in human urine.

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2016; 13:ijerph13090904. [PMID: 27626434 PMCID: PMC5036737 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph13090904] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2016] [Revised: 08/19/2016] [Accepted: 09/05/2016] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
The presence of biogenic amines is a hallmark of degraded food and its products. Herein, we focused on the utilization of magnetic nanoparticles off-line coupled with ion exchange chromatography with post-column ninhydrin derivatization and Vis detection for histamine (Him) separation and detection. Primarily, we described the synthesis of magnetic nanoparticles with nanomaghemite core (γ-Fe2O3) functionalized with titanium dioxide and, then, applied these particles to specific isolation of Him. To obtain further insight into interactions between paramagnetic particles’ (PMP) surface and Him, a scanning electron microscope was employed. It was shown that binding of histamine causes an increase of relative current response of deprotonated PMPs, which confirmed formation of Him-PMPs clusters. The recovery of the isolation showed that titanium dioxide-based particles were able to bind and preconcentrate Him with recovery exceeding 90%. Finally, we successfully carried out the analyses of real samples obtained from silage. We can conclude that our modified particles are suitable for Him isolation, and thus may serve as the first isolation step of Him from biological samples, as it is demonstrated on alfalfa seed variety Tereza silage.
