Rapid formation of gold core-satellite nanostructures using Turkevich-synthesized satellites and dithiol linkers: the do's and don'ts for successful assembly. NANOSCALE ADVANCES 2024; 6:3632-3643. [PMID: 38989523 PMCID: PMC11232561 DOI: 10.1039/d4na00390j] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2024] [Accepted: 05/30/2024] [Indexed: 07/12/2024]
Abstract
Turkevich syntheses represent a foundational approach for forming colloids of monodisperse gold nanoparticles where the use of these structures as building blocks when forming multicomponent nanoassemblies is pervasive. The core-satellite motif, which is characterized by a central core structure onto which satellite structures are tethered, distinguishes itself in that it can realize numerous plasmonic nanogaps with nanometer scale widths. Established procedures for assembling these multicomponent structures are, to a large extent, empirically driven, time-consuming, difficult to reproduce, and in need of a strong mechanistic underpinning relating to the close-range electrostatic interactions needed to secure satellite structures onto core materials. Described herein is a rapid, repeatable procedure for assembling core-satellite structures using Turkevich-grown satellites and dithiol linkers. With this successful procedure acting as a baseline for benchmarking modified procedures, a rather complex parameter space is understood in terms of timeline requirements for various processing steps and an analysis of the factors that prove consequential to assembly. It is shown that seemingly innocuous procedures realize sparsely populated cores whereas cores initially obstructed with commonly used capping agents lead to few disruptions to satellite attachment. Once these factors are placed under control, then it is the ionic strength imposed by the reaction biproducts of the Turkevich synthesis that is the critical factor in assembly because they decide the spatial extent of the electrical double layer surrounding each colloidal nanoparticle. With this understanding, it is possible to control the ionic strength through the addition or subtraction of various ionic species and assert control over the assembly process. The work, hence, advances the rules for a robust core-satellite assembly process and, in a broader sense, contributes to the knowhow required for the precise, programmable, and controllable assembly of multicomponent systems.

Abstract
Mycotoxins are toxic metabolites produced by fungi in the process of infecting agricultural products, posing serious threat to the health of human and animals. Thus, sensitive and reliable analytical techniques for mycotoxin detection are needed. Biosensors equipped with antibodies or aptamers as recognition elements and core-shell nanoparticles (NPs) for the pre-treatment and detection of mycotoxins have been extensively studied. By comparison with monocomponent NPs, core-shell nanostructures exhibit unique optical, electric, magnetic, plasmonic, and catalytic properties due to the combination of functionalities and synergistic effects, resulting in significant improvement of sensing capacities in various platforms, such as surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, fluorescence, lateral flow immunoassay and electrochemical sensors. This review focused on the development of core-shell NPs based biosensors for the sensitive and accurate detection of mycotoxins in food samples. Recent developments were categorised and summarised, along with detailed discussion of advantages and shortcomings. The future potential of utilising core-shell NPs in food safety testing was also highlighted.

Abstract
Chiral plasmonic nanoparticles (and their assemblies) interact with biomolecules in a variety of different ways, resulting in distinct optical signatures when probed by circular dichroism spectroscopy. These systems show promise for biosensing applications and offer several advantages over achiral plasmonic systems. Arguably the most notable advantage is that chiral nanoparticles can differentiate between molecular enantiomers and can, therefore, act as sensors for enantiomeric purity. Furthermore, chiral nanoparticles can couple more effectively to chiral biomolecules in biological systems if they have a matching handedness, improving their effectiveness as biomedical agents. In this article, we review the different types of interactions that occur between chiral plasmonic nanoparticle systems and biomolecules, and discuss how circular dichroism spectroscopy can probe these interactions and inform how to optimize systems for biosensing and biomedical applications.

Abstract
The cooperative relationship between biomolecules and nanomaterials makes up a beautiful tale about nanoscale chiral sensing and separation. Biomolecules are considered a fabulous chirality 'donor' to develop chiral sensors and separation systems. Nature has endowed biomolecules with mysterious chirality. Various nanomaterials with specific physicochemical attributes can realize the transmission and amplification of this chirality. We focus on highlighting the advantages of combining biomolecules and nanomaterials in nanoscale chirality. To enhance the sensors' detection sensitivity, novel cooperation approaches between nanomaterials and biomolecules have attracted tremendous attention. Moreover, innovative biomolecule-based nanocomposites possess great importance in developing chiral separation systems with improved assay performance. This review describes the formation of a network based on nanomaterials and biomolecules mainly including DNA, proteins, peptides, amino acids, and polysaccharides. We hope this tale will record the perpetual relation between biomolecules and nanomaterials in nanoscale chirality.

Abstract
Chirality is a universal phenomenon in molecular and biological systems, denoting an asymmetric configurational property where an object cannot be superimposed onto its mirror image by any kind of translation or rotation, which is ubiquitous on the scale from neutrinos to spiral galaxies. Chirality plays a very important role in the life system. Many biological molecules in the life body show chirality, such as the "codebook" of the earth's biological diversity-DNA, nucleic acid, etc. Intriguingly, living organisms hierarchically consist of homochiral building blocks, for example, l-amino acids and d-sugars with unknown reason. When molecules with chirality interact with these chiral factors, only one conformation favors the positive development of life, that is, the chiral host environment can only selectively interact with chiral molecules of one of the conformations. The differences in chiral interactions are often manifested by chiral recognition, mutual matching, and interactions with chiral molecules, which means that the stereoselectivity of chiral molecules can produce changes in pharmacodynamics and pathology. Here, the latest investigations are summarized including the construction and applications of chiral materials based on natural small molecules as chiral source, natural biomacromolecules as chiral sources, and the material synthesized by design as a chiral source.

Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA), a typical mycotoxin contaminant found in various agricultural products and foods, poses a serious threat to human health. In this study, an aptasensor based on a novel fluorescence probe comprising a G-rich DNA sequence (G43) and thioflavin T (ThT) was designed via hybridization chain reaction (HCR) for the ultrasensitive detection of OTA. G43 is a concatemer of G-quadruplex and G-triplex (a G-quadruplex-like structure with one G-quartet removed), which can drastically enhance the fluorescence intensity of ThT. For this strategy to work, the OTA aptamer is pro-locked in a hairpin structure, denoted "hairpin-locked aptamer" (HL-Apt). OTA binds to HL-Apt, opens the hairpin structure, releases the trigger sequence, and initiates the HCR reaction to form a long DNA duplex and numerous side chains. The side chains combine entirely with the complementary DNA and liberate the pro-locked G43 DNA, dramatically enhancing the intensity of the ThT fluorescence signal. The fluorescence intensity correlates linearly with the OTA concentration between 0.02 and 2.00 ng mL-1, and the method has a detection limit of 0.008 ng mL-1. The developed aptasensor was used to detect OTA in foodstuffs with satisfactory results.

Abstract
Currently, developing versatile, easy-to-operate, and effective signal amplification strategies hold great promise in photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensing. Herein, an ultrasensitive polyvinylpyrrolidone-treated In2S3/WO3 (In2S3-P/WO3)-functionalized paper-based PEC sensor was established for sensing ochratoxin A (OTA) based on a target-driven self-feedback (TDSF) mechanism enabled by a dual cycling tactic of PEC chemical-chemical (PECCC) redox and exonuclease III (Exo III)-assisted complementary DNA. The In2S3-P/WO3 heterojunction structure with 3D open-structure and regulable topology was initially in situ grown on Au nanoparticle-functionalized cellulose paper, which was served as a universal signal transducer to directly record photocurrent signals without complicated electrode modification, endowing the paper chip with admirable anti-interference ability and unexceptionable photoelectric conversion efficiency. With the assistance of Exo III-assisted cycling process, a trace amount of OTA could trigger substantial signal reporter ascorbic acid (AA) generated by the enzymatic catalysis of alkaline phosphatase, which could effectively provoke the PECCC redox cycling among the tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine acid, AA, and ferrocenecarboxylic at the In2S3-P/WO3 photoelectrode, initiating TDSF signal amplification. Based on the TDSF process induced by the Exo III-assisted recycling and PECCC redox cycling strategy, the developed paper-based PEC biosensor realized ultrasensitive determination of OTA with persuasive selectivity, high stability, and excellent reproducibility. It is believed that the proposed paper-based PEC sensing platform exhibited enormous potential for the detection of other targets in bioanalysis and clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Inorganic chiral hybrid nanostructures embedding chirality within distinct material compositions can create novel chiral properties and functionalities absent from achiral ones, but remain largely unexplored. We report for the first time a class of chiral plasmonic metal-semiconductor core-shell nanostructures by employing structurally chiral nanoparticles as chirality inducing templates to grow functional shell materials, which allows us to independently control material parameters including core geometry and shell thickness, as well as handedness of the system. We experimentally and theoretically achieve enhanced and tunable chiroptical activity of the hetero-structures as a result of the core-shell strong coupling effect. As a proof-of-concept demonstration, we show the chiral hybrid nanostructures can drive chirality-dependent photocatalytic hydrogen generation under circularly polarized light. This study enables rational design and functionalization of chiral hybrid nanomaterials towards enhanced chiral light-matter interactions and chiral device applications.

Abstract
The presence of excess L-amino acid in the Murchison meteorite, circular polarization effect in the genesis of stars and existence of chirality in interstellar molecules contribute to the origin of life on earth. Chiral-sensitive techniques have been employed to untangle the secret of the symmetries of the universe, designing of effective secure drugs and investigation of chiral biomolecules. The relationship between light and chiral molecules was employed to probe and explore such molecules using spectroscopy techniques. The mutual interaction between electromagnetic spectrum and chirality of matter give rise to distinct optical response, which advances vital information contents in chiroptical spectroscopy. Chiral plasmonic gold nanoparticle exhibits distinctive circular dichroism peaks in broad wavelength range thereby crossing the limits of its characterization. The emergence of strong optical activity of gold nanosystem is related to its high polarizability, resulting in plasmonic and excitonic effects on incident photons. Inspired by the development of advanced chiral plasmonic nanomaterials and exploring its properties, this review gives an overview of various chiral gold nanostructures and the mechanism behind its chiroptical properties. Finally, we highlight the application of different chiral gold nanomaterials in the field of catalysis and medical applications with special emphasis to biosensing and biodetection.

Abstract
Chiral nanophotonic materials are promising candidates for biosensing applications because they focus light into nanometer dimensions, increasing their sensitivity to the molecular signatures of their surroundings. Recent advances in nanomaterial-enhanced chirality sensing provide detection limits as low as attomolar concentrations (10-18 M) for biomolecules and are relevant to the pharmaceutical industry, forensic drug testing, and medical applications that require high sensitivity. Here, we review the development of chiral nanomaterials and their application for detecting biomolecules, supramolecular structures, and other environmental stimuli. We discuss superchiral near-field generation in both dielectric and plasmonic metamaterials that are composed of chiral or achiral nanostructure arrays. These materials are also applicable for enhancing chiroptical signals from biomolecules. We review the plasmon-coupled circular dichroism mechanism observed for plasmonic nanoparticles and discuss how hotspot-enhanced plasmon-coupled circular dichroism applies to biosensing. We then review single-particle spectroscopic methods for achieving the ultimate goal of single-molecule chirality sensing. Finally, we discuss future outlooks of nanophotonic chiral systems.

Abstract
The rapid development of chiral inorganic nanostructures has greatly expanded from intrinsically chiral nanoparticles to more sophisticated assemblies made by organics, metals, semiconductors, and their hybrids. Among them, lots of studies concerning on hybrid complex of chiral molecules with achiral nanoparticles (NPs) and superstructures with chiral configurations were accordingly conducted due to the great advances such as highly enhanced biocompatibility with low cytotoxicity and enhanced penetration and retention capability, programmable surface functionality with engineerable building blocks, and more importantly tunable chirality in a controlled manner, leading to revolutionary designs of new biomaterials for synergistic cancer therapy, control of enantiomeric enzymatic reactions, integration of metabolism and pathology via bio-to nano or structural chirality. Herein, in this review our objective is to emphasize current research state and clinical applications of chiral nanomaterials in biological systems with special attentions to chiral metal- or semiconductor-based nanostructures in terms of the basic synthesis, related circular dichroism effects at optical frequencies, mechanisms of induced optical chirality and their performances in biomedical applications such as phototherapy, bio-imaging, neurodegenerative diseases, gene editing, cellular activity and sensing of biomarkers so as to provide insights into this fascinating field for peer researchers.

Abstract
Advanced sensing tools, detecting extremely low concentrations of circulating biomarkers, can open unexplored routes toward early diagnostics and diseases progression monitoring. Here, we demonstrate the sensing capabilities of a chip-based metamaterial, combining 3D chiral geometry with a functional core-shell nanoarchitecture. The chiral metamaterial provides a circular polarization-dependent optical response, allowing analysis in a complex environment without significant background interferences. The functional nanoarchitecture, based on the conformal coating with a polymer shell, modifies the chiral metamaterial near- and far-field optical response because of the energy transfer between dielectric shell polarization charges and plasmonic core free electrons, leading to efficient interaction with biomolecules. The system sensitivity slope is 27 nm/pM, in the detection of TAR DNA-binding protein 43, clinically relevant for neurodegenerative diseases. Measurements were performed in spiked solution and in human serum with concentrations from 1 pM down to 10 fM, which is a range not accessible with common immunological assays, opening new perspectives for next-generation biomedical systems.

Abstract
Owing to the high sensitivity, fast responsiveness and high specificity, immunoassays using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) as the readout signal displayed great potential in disease diagnosis. In this study, we developed a SERS-immunoassay method for the detection of human immunoglobulin G (HIgG). Upon involving well-ordered AuA on a SERSIA substrate, the LSPR effect was further enhanced to generate a strong and uniform Raman signal through the formation of sandwich structure with the addition of target HIgG and SERSIA tag. Optimization of the assay provided a wide linear range (0.1–200 μg mL−1) and low limit of detection (0.1 μg mL−1). In addition, the SERS-immunoassay method displayed excellent specificity and was homogeneous, which guaranteed the practical use of this method in the quantitative detection of HIgG. To validate this assay, human serum was analysed, which demonstrated the potential advantages of SERS-immunoassay technology in clinical diagnostics. An AuNP array coated substrate was developed for the SERS-immunoassay detection of human immunoglobulin G.![]()

Abstract
Lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) has emerged as an effective technique in the field of food safety and environmental monitoring. However, sensitive and quantitative detection is still challenging for LFIAs in complex environments. In this work, a dual-model colorimetric/SERS lateral flow immunoassay for ultrasensitive determination of clenbuterol was constructed based on a metallic core-shell Au/Au nanostar acting as a multifunction tag. Raman reporter molecules are located between the core (AuNP) and shell (Au nanostar) to form a sandwich structure, which contributes to eliminate the environmental interference and improve the detection stability. In addition, the Au/Au nanostar provides a much higher Raman enhancement due to the presence of sharp tips and larger surface roughness in comparison with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). Thus, on the basis of the antibody-antigen interaction, the dual-model immunoassay can produce strong colorimetric and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) signals for highly sensitive detection of the target analyte, clenbuterol. Under optimal conditions, clenbuterol could be detected by the colorimetric model with a visual detection limit of 5 ng/mL. Meanwhile, the SERS signal of the Au/Au nanostar was accumulated on the test line for the SERS model detection with a quantitative detection limit as low as 0.05 ng/mL, which is at least 200-fold lower than that of the traditional AuNPs-based immunoassay. Furthermore, recovery rates of the proposed method in food samples were 86-110%. This dual-model immunoassay provides an effective tool for antibiotic residues analysis and demonstrates a broad potential for future applications in food safety monitoring.

Abstract
A sergeants-and-soldiers (S&S) effect is very useful to the fabrication of supramolecular chirality. This strategy has not yet been explored in the construction of chiral plasmonic superstructures. Herein, we demonstrate a spatially separated S&S effect in fabricating plasmonic superstructures and modulating their chiroptical responses. Specifically, chiral cysteine (Cys) molecules, acting as sergeants, are sandwiched between a gold nanorod (AuNR) core and a Au shell via AuNR-templated Au overgrowth. Cationic surfactants, CTAB (cetyltrimethylammonium bromide) or CPC (cetylpyridinium chloride), are modified on the AuNR@Cys@Au shell surface, thus spatially separating from the chiral sergeants. During the assembly process, the surfactants act as soldiers which could transfer and amplify the local chirality induced by the adsorbed chiral molecules from the plasmonic monomers to the oligomers. Huge PCD signals could be achieved in the plasmonic oligomers by finely tuning chiral sergeants and achiral soldiers, indicating the feasibility of the S&S effect in fabricating chiral plasmonic superstructures.

Abstract
The development of artificial chiral architectures, especially chiral inorganic nanostructures, has greatly promoted research into chirality in nanoscience. The nanoscale chirality of artificial chiral nanostructures offers many new application opportunities, including chiral catalysis, asymmetric synthesis, chiral biosensing, and others that may not be allowed by natural chiral molecules. Herein, the progress achieved during the past decade in chirality-associated biological applications (biosensing, biolabeling, and bioimaging) combined with individual chiral nanostructures (such as chiral semiconductor nanoparticles and chiral metal nanoparticles) or chiral assemblies is discussed.

Abstract
Discrimination of enantiomers poses a scientific challenge as the chemical and physical properties of enantiomers are nearly identical. The chiral analysis is usually performed by separation techniques, including chromatography, electrophoresis, or optical instrumentation based on an interaction of the analyzed sample with a polarized beam of light. Here we present a novel method for a chiral screening based on a combination of the black phosphorus@Graphene nanocomposite and Raman spectroscopy. The nanocomposite allows to enhance the Raman signal with factors higher than 100 asymmetrically and provide altered signals for mixtures containing varying enantiomeric ratios of target compounds. Tryptophan, Phenylalanine, DOPA, Isoleucine, and Leucine were selected as model compounds; the method allows us to discriminate between mixtures with 10, 25, 50, 75, and 100% enantiomeric purity.

Abstract
BACKGROUD Pesticides are widely used to control insect infestation and weeds in agriculture. However, concerns about the pesticide residues in agricultural products have been raised in recent years because of public interest in health and food quality and safety. Thus, rapid, convenient, and accurate analytical methods for the detection and quantification of pesticides are urgently required. RESULTS A nanohybrid system composed of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and tetrakis(N-methyl-4-pyridiniumyl) porphyrin (TMPyP) was used as an optical probe for the detection and quantification of five pesticides (Paraquat, Dipterex, Dursban, methyl thiophanate and Cartap). The method is based on the aggregation effect of pesticides on the carboxyl group modified by AuNPs. Subsequently, with the help of particle swarm optimization-optimized sample weighted least squares-support vector machine (PSO-OSWLS-SVM), all the pesticides could be successfully quantified. In addition, partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) was applied and the five pesticides were satisfactorily recognized based on data array obtained from the ultraviolet visible (UV-visible) spectra of AuNP-TMPyP complex. Furthermore, the quantitative and qualitative analysis of the five pesticides could be also achieved in the complex real samples, in which all the relative standard deviations (RSDs) were less than 0.3‰ and all the linear absolute correlation coefficients were more than 0.9990. Furthermore, recognition rate of the training set and the prediction set based on multiplicative scatter correction (MSC), or second-order derivative (2nd derivative) UV-visible spectra in PLS-DA model could reach 100%. CONCLUSION This method was successfully applied for the rapid and accurate determination of multicomponent pesticide residues in real food samples. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
It is a significant challenge to achieve controllable self-assembly of superstructures for biological applications in living cells. Here, a two-layer core-satellite assembly is driven by a Y-DNA, which is designed with three nucleotide chains that hybridized through complementary sequences. The two-layer core-satellite nanostructure (C30 S5 S10 NS) is constructed using 30 nm gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) as the core, 5 nm Au NPs as the first satellite layer, and 10 nm Au NPs as the second satellite layer, resulting in a very strong circular dichroism (CD) and surface-enhanced Raman scattering. After optimization, the yield is up to 85%, and produces a g-factor of 0.16 × 10-2 . The hybridization of the target microRNA (miRNA) with the molecular probe causes a significant drop in the CD and Raman signals, and this phenomenon is used to detect the miRNA in living cells. The CD signal has a good linear range of 0.011-20.94 amol ngRNA-1 and a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.0051 amol ngRNA-1 , while Raman signal with the range of 0.052-34.98 amol ngRNA-1 and an LOD of 2.81 × 10-2 amol ngRNA-1 . This innovative dual-signal method can be used to quantify biomolecules in living cells, opening the way for ultrasensitive, highly accurate, and reliable diagnoses of clinical diseases.

Abstract
Fermented pastes are some of the most popular traditional products in China. Many studies reported a strong possibility that fermented pastes promote exposure to mycotoxins, including aflatoxins, ochratoxins, and cereulide, which were proven to be carcinogenic and neurotoxic to humans. The primary mechanism of pathogenicity is by inhibiting protein synthesis and inducing oxidative stress using cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. The level of mycotoxin production is dependent on the pre-harvest or post-harvest stage. It is possible to implement methods to control mycotoxins by using appropriate antagonistic microorganisms, such as Aspergillus niger, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolated from ordinary foods. Also, drying products as soon as possible to avoid condensation or moisture absorption in order to reduce the water activity to lower than 0.82 during storage is also effective. Furthermore, organic acid treatment during the soaking process reduces toxins by more than 90%. Some novel detection technologies based on magnetic adsorption, aptamer probes, and molecular-based methods were applied to rapidly and accurately detect mycotoxins in fermented pastes.

Abstract
Plasmonic metamaterials are artificially designed materials which exhibit optical properties that cannot be found in nature. They have unique and special abilities related to electromagnetic wave control, including strong field enhancement in the vicinity of the surfaces. Over the years, scientists have succeeded in dramatically improving the detection limit of molecular chirality utilizing a variety of plasmonic metamaterial platforms. In this mini-review, we will discuss the principles of most recent issues in chiral sensing applications of plasmonic metamaterials, including suggested formulas for signal enhancement of chiroptical plasmonic sensors, and studies on various platforms that employ different sensing mechanisms.

Abstract
Enantiodifferentiation is crucial in organic chemistry, pharmacochemistry, material chemistry, and life science. However, it remains tremendously challenging to achieve a broad enantioselectivity to different types of chiral substrates via a single-material design. Here, we report a coassembled organogel strategy with chirality transfer to make an enantioselective generality possible. This coassembly contains two components: a chiral rigid molecular linker and an achiral block copolymer. Different from routine helically packed chiral self-assemblies, chirality transfer from the linker to the copolymer directed the coassembly to form a phase-segregated twisted nanofiber, in cooperation with H-bonding and microphase segregation. An organogel was accordingly formed by the further cross-linking in ethanol, where the rigid chiral linker served as the scaffold. On this basis, the system becomes highly sensitive, enabling a naked-eye sensing toward the single enantiomer of a diverse series of chiral species (including axial, point, planar, and polymeric chirality) via gel-to-micelle transformation, due to the asymmetric interaction hampering the chirality transfer in the coassembly and destroying the hierarchical structure. Such a strategy, based on a significant amplification of the stereoselective interactions, facilitates a simple and straightforward way to distinguish a broad optical activity independent of devices.

Abstract
The quantitative multiplex immunochromatographic assay (mICA) has received an increasing amount of attention in multitarget detection. However, the quantitative results in the reported mICAs were obtained by recording the signals on the test lines that with which various analyte-independent factors readily interfere, resulting in inaccurate quantitation. The ratiometric strategy using the T/C value (ratios of signals on the test line to those of the control line) for signal correction can effectively circumvent these issues to enable more accurate detection. Herein, we present for the first time a novel ratiometric mICA strip with multiple T lines for the simultaneous quantitative detection of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), fumonisin B1 (FB1), and ochratoxin A (OTA) using highly luminescent quantum dot nanobeads (QBs) as enhanced signal reporters. To achieve reliable ratiometric signal output, a biotin-streptavidin system was introduced to replace the conventional anti-mouse IgG antibody for reliable reference signals on the control line that are completely independent of the signal probe and analyte. By using stable T/C values as quantitative signals, our proposed QB-mICA method can successfully detect three mycotoxins with concentrations as low as 1.65 pg/mL for AFB1, 1.58 ng/mL for FB1, and 0.059 ng/mL for OTA. The detection performance of the developed QB-mICA strip, including precision, specificity, and reliability, was further evaluated using artificially contaminated cereal samples. The results demonstrate the improved accuracy and reliability of quantitative determination by comparison with the anti-mouse IgG antibody. Thus, this work provides a promising strategy for developing a ratiometric mICA method for accurately quantifying multiple analytes using the biotin-SA system, opening up a new direction in quantitative mICAs.

Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA) poses a serious threat to the health of human beings and animals. In this paper, a simple and sensitive electrochemiluminescence (ECL) aptasensor was constructed to detect OTA based on electrochemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET) and a nicking endonuclease-powered DNA walking machine. Originally, the signal of cadmium sulfide semiconductor quantum dots (CdS QDs) was quenched efficiently by Cy5. After the addition of OTA, the walker autonomously hybridized with Cy5-labeled DNA and released plenty of Cy5-DNA from the electrode surface with the help of a nicking endonuclease. As a result, the signal of CdS QDs recovered efficiently. As an artificial and popular signal amplification technique, the DNA walking machine greatly improved the sensitivity. Under optimal conditions, the aptasensor not only detected OTA in a linear range from 0.05 nM to 5 nM with a detection limit of 0.012 nM (S/N = 3), but also showed an excellent selectivity for OTA over other mycotoxins.

Abstract
Achieving chiral plasmon response based on the combination of achiral plasmonic nanostructures with highly chiral surrounding medium represents an attractive way for creation of hybrid optically active plasmonic materials. In this work, we present an attractive design and fabrication of chiral plasmon substrates based on a surface plasmon-polariton-supported structure coupled with extremely optically active helicene enantiomers. Such approach allows us to excite chiral plasmon waves and to design optically active surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy substrates. Its further combination with standard Raman spectroscopy makes possible enantioselective detection/recognition of optical enantiomers with detection limits below those of standard spectral techniques. The chiral optical response of new plasmonic system was observed and controlled by the optical rotation of helicenes. Without necessity of previous chiral separation or implementation of sophisticated experimental equipment, we were able to estimate the concentration of enantiomers in their mixture by using left- or right-handed chiral plasmon substrates.
