Abstract
In this work, we report a novel dual-mode method for the highly specific and sensitive detection of transcription factors (TFs) via the integration of Klenow polymerase protection induced by target-specific recognition, cascade-signal amplification using the hybridization chain reaction (HCR) and CRISPR/Cas12a system, and dual-signal transduction mediated by β-galactosidase (β-gal) and two substrates. A dual-mode signal-sensing interface was constructed by immobilizing the oligo DNA probe (P1) tethered β-gal in a 96-well plate. A hairpin H1 with the ability to initiate HCRs was designed to contain the TF binding site. The binding between the TF and H1 protected the H1 from being extended by the Klenow fragment. After thermal denaturation, the reserved H1 launched the HCR and the HCR products activated CRISPR/Cas12a to cleave P1 and reduce the β-gal on the sensing interface, and thus the contents of the TFs and the corresponding signals mediated by the catalysis of β-gal showed a correlation. This work was the first attempt at utilizing β-gal for dual-signal transduction. It is a pioneering study to utilize the HCR-CRISPR/Cas12a system for dual-mode TF sensors. It revealed that DNA polymerase protection through the binding of TF and DNA could be applied as a new pattern to develop TF sensors.

Abstract
Food safety has emerged as a significant concern for global public health and sustainable development. The development of analytical tools capable of rapidly, conveniently, and sensitively detecting food safety hazards is imperative. Over the past few decades, personal glucose meters (PGMs), characterized by their rapid response, low cost, and high degree of commercialization, have served as portable signal output devices extensively utilized in the construction of biosensors. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the mechanism underlying the construction of PGM-based biosensors, which consists of three fundamental components: recognition, signal transduction, and signal output. It also detailedly enumerates available recognition and signal transduction elements, and their modes of integration. Then, a multitude of instances is examined to present the latest advancements in the application of PGMs in food safety detection, including targets such as pathogenic bacteria, mycotoxins, agricultural and veterinary drug residues, heavy metal ions, and illegal additives. Finally, the challenges and prospects of PGM-based biosensors are highlighted, aiming to offer valuable references for the iterative refinement of detection techniques and provide a comprehensive framework and inspiration for further investigations.

Construction of a portable immunosensor for the sensitive detection of carbendazim in agricultural products using a personal glucose meter. Food Chem 2023; 407:135161. [PMID: 36502732 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2022.135161] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2022] [Revised: 11/26/2022] [Accepted: 12/04/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Portable and sensitive detection of carbendazim (CBD) is highly desirable for food safety and environmental protection. Herein, a portable immunosensor for the sensitive detection of CBD is proposed based on alkaline phosphatase (ALP)-labeled and secondary antibody-modified gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The quantification is based on ALP catalyzing the dephosphorylation of glucose-1-phosphate disodium salt to generate glucose, thus converting the concentration of CBD into glucose, thereby realizing the portable detection of CBD by personal glucose meter. Benefiting from signal amplification strategy that integrates the large specific surface area of AuNPs, the enzymatic reactions of terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase and ALP, a low detection limit of 0.37 ng/mL for CBD is achieved. When this portable method is used to analyze citrus fruit, canned citrus, and cabbage, good-consistency results are obtained with the UPLC-MS/MS method. The good performance demonstrates the great potential of this portable method for CBD monitoring in resource-poor settings.

Personal Glucose Meters Coupled with Signal Amplification Technologies for Quantitative Detection of Non-Glucose Targets: Recent Progress and Challenges in Food Safety Hazards Analysis. J Pharm Anal 2023; 13:223-238. [PMID: 37102109 PMCID: PMC10123950 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpha.2023.02.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2022] [Revised: 01/19/2023] [Accepted: 02/09/2023] [Indexed: 02/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Ensuring food safety is paramount worldwide. Developing effective detection methods to ensure food safety can be challenging owing to trace hazards, long detection time, and resource-poor sites, in addition to the matrix effects of food. Personal glucose meter (PGM), a classic point-of-care testing device, possesses unique application advantages, demonstrating promise in food safety. Currently, many studies have used PGM-based biosensors and signal amplification technologies to achieve sensitive and specific detection of food hazards. Signal amplification technologies have the potential to greatly improve the analytical performance and integration of PGMs with biosensors, which is crucial for solving the challenges associated with the use of PGMs for food safety analysis. This review introduces the basic detection principle of a PGM-based sensing strategy, which consists of three key factors: target recognition, signal transduction, and signal output. Representative studies of existing PGM-based sensing strategies combined with various signal amplification technologies (nanomaterial-loaded multienzyme labeling, nucleic acid reaction, DNAzyme catalysis, responsive nanomaterial encapsulation, and others) in the field of food safety detection are reviewed. Future perspectives and potential opportunities and challenges associated with PGMs in the field of food safety are discussed. Despite the need for complex sample preparation and the lack of standardization in the field, using PGMs in combination with signal amplification technology shows promise as a rapid and cost-effective method for food safety hazard analysis.
