Abstract
Biomarkers play a pivotal role in the screening, diagnosis, prevention, and post-treatment follow-up of various malignant tumors. In certain instances, identifying these markers necessitates prior treatment due to the complex nature of the tumor microenvironment. Consequently, advancing techniques that exhibit selectivity, specificity, and enable streamlined analysis hold significant importance. Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are considered synthetic antibodies because they possess the property of molecular recognition with high selectivity and sensitivity. In recent years, there has been a notable surge in the investigation of these materials, primarily driven by their remarkable adaptability in terms of tailoring them for specific target molecules and integrating them into diverse analytical technologies. This review presents a comprehensive analysis of molecular imprinting techniques, highlighting their application in developing sensors and analytical methods for cancer detection, diagnosis, and monitoring. Therefore, MIPs offer great potential in oncology and show promise for improving the accuracy of cancer screening and diagnosis procedures.

Abstract
The detection of biologically important compounds such as cysteine remains a challenge for monitoring body metabolism. This work proposes a transition metal ion coordination-based label-free cysteine sensor with smartphone-based square wave voltammetry sensing system for the point-of-care testing (POCT). In the sensing system, potential excitation and current measurements were accomplished by a miniaturized and integrated circuit board with a smartphone to wirelessly control the system via Bluetooth. The electrochemical currents changed with the cysteine concentrations ranging from 0 μM to 200 μM with a linearity correlation coefficient of 0.9915. The limit of detection was as low as 0.0149 μM for cysteine. The smartphone-based system provides an effective strategy for cysteine detection, and it can also serve as a promising portable sensing platform for the analysis of other small molecules.

Abstract
A novel colorimetric nanosensor is reported for the selective and sensitive determination of cysteine using magnetic-sulfur, nitrogen graphene quantum dots (Fe3O4/S, N-GQDs), and gold nanoparticles (Au NPs). Thus, S, N-GQDs was firstly immobilized on Fe3O4 nanoparticles through its magnetization in the presence of Fe3+ in the alkali solution. The prepared Fe3O4/S, N-GQDs were dispersed in cysteine solution resulting in its quick adsorption on the surface of the Fe3O4/S, N-GQDs through hydrogen bonding interaction. Then, Au NPs solution was added to this mixture that after a short time, the color of Au NPs changed from red to blue, the intensity of surface plasmon resonance peak of Au NPs at 530 nm decreased, and a new peak at a higher wavelength of 680 nm appeared. The effective parameters on cysteine quantification were optimized via response surface methodology using the central composite design. Under optimum conditions, the absorbance ratio (A680/A530) has a linear proportionality with cysteine concentration in the range of 0.04-1.20 μmol L-1 with a limit of detection of 0.009 μmol L-1. The fabrication of the reported nanosensor is simple, fast, and is capable of efficient quantification of ultra traces of cysteine in human serum and urine real samples.

Abstract
Paraquat (PQ) residue is harmful for human health, agriculture, and the aquatic environment. This paper proposes a novel fluorescent molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP), SiO2 @CdTe QDs@MIP, for PQ detection and adsorption. The MIP was synthesized using 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane as the functional monomer, 4,4'-bipyridyl as the template molecule, and tetraethoxysilane as the cross-linker. In addition, CdTe quantum dots featuring unique optical characteristics and excellent photochemical stability were combined as signal reporter. The synthesized MIP had a Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area of 68.2 m2 /g, pore volume of 0.42 cm3 /g and pore size of 6.9 nm, demonstrating the potential for both PQ detection and adsorption. For PQ detection, the MIP could achieve three orders of magnitude better than the limit of detection, and one order of magnitude wider detection range than existing methods. The PQ recovery values for real samples of water and corn were 96.4-102.1% and 93.9-97.3%, respectively. The amount of PQ detected by the MIP was within 98.05% on average of that using high-performance liquid chromatography. For PQ adsorption, the MIP had an adsorption capacity of 3.36 mg/g, and followed a pseudo-second-order kinetic model with excellent toxicological characteristics. Overall, the novel SiO2 @CdTe QDs@MIP proposed in this paper could facilitate an efficient and convenient method for PQ detection and adsorption.

Abstract
Composites of tetracycline (Tc)-imprinted polymethacrylates and quantum dots have been coated on chemically pretreated polyimide substrates (PIs) as fluorescent sensors. In this study, PIs were pretreated by capacitively coupled plasma (CCP) before coating the same composites on them. For the first time, to fabricate sensors by plasma modification of PIs, the CCP conditions, including plasma gas, flow rate, radio frequency generation power, and duration time, the fabrication details, including coating, baking, and stripping steps, and the sample loading process were optimized to perform a linear decrease in fluorescent intensity with Tc concentrations in the range of 5.0-3000 μM (R2 = 0.9995) with a limit of detection of 0.2 μM (S/N = 3, relative standard deviation (RSD) = 2.2%). The selectivity of the stripped PIs was evaluated by the imprinting factors (IFs) for Tc (IF = 7.2), other Tc analogues (IF = 3.4-5.3), and steroids (IF ≈ 1) and by the recoveries of 5.0 μM Tc from bovine serum albumin at 300 μg∙mL-1 (98%, RSD = 3.2%), fetal bovine serum at 1.5 ppt (98%, RSD = 2.8%), and liquid milk (94.5%, RSD = 5.3%). The superiority of the present plasma-treated-based sensor over the previous chemically-treated one in fabrication efficiency and detection effectiveness was clear.

Abstract
Quantum dots (QDs) are attractive semiconductor fluorescent nanomaterials with remarkable optical and electrical properties. The broad absorption spectra and high stability of QD transducers are advantageous for sensing and bioimaging. Molecular imprinting is a technique for manufacturing synthetic polymeric materials with a high recognition ability towards a target analyte. The high selectivity of the molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) is a result of the fabrication process based on the template-tailored polymerization of functional monomers. The three-dimensional cavities formed in the polymer network can serve as the recognition elements of sensors because of their specificity and stability. Appending specific molecularly imprinted layers to QDs is a promising strategy to enhance the stability, sensitivity, and selective fluorescence response of the resulting sensors. By merging the benefits of MIPs and QDs, inventive optical sensors are constructed. In this review, the recent synthetic strategies used for the fabrication of QD nanocrystals emphasizing various approaches to effective functionalization in aqueous environments are discussed followed by a detailed presentation of current advances in QD conjugated MIPs (MIP-QDs). Frontiers in manufacturing of specific imprinted layers of these nanomaterials are presented and factors affecting the specific behaviour of an MIP shell are identified. Finally, current limitations of MIP-QDs are defined and prospects are outlined to amplify the capability of MIP-QDs in future sensing.

Abstract
The applications of metallic nanoclusters and nanoparticles in biological sensing have attracted special attention owing to their optical interaction based on fluorescence and surface plasmon resonance (SPR). In this work, we designed a fluorescent nanoprobe for the determination of L-cysteine (L-Cys) based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) from gold‑silver bimetallic nanoclusters (Au-Ag NCs) to gold nanorods (AuNRs). Firstly, the negatively charged Au-Ag NCs protected by bovine serum albumin (BSA) are directly adsorbed on the surface of the positively charged AuNRs through electrostatic interaction, and the FRET effect leads to distinct fluorescence quenching of Au-Ag NCs at 615nm. The SPR wavelength of AuNRs is dependent on the aspect ratio, so the SPR of AuNRs could be tuned to have a better spectral overlap with fluorescence of Au-Ag NCs, which enhances the fluorescence quenching effect. Because the SH group of L-Cys has an affinity with gold, the addition of L-Cys can result in the release of Au-Ag NCs from the surface of AuNRs via forming AuS bonds. Thus, the introduction of L-Cys could effectively restore the fluorescence emission of the AuNRs/Au-Ag NCs system because of the restraint of FRET effect. Under the optimized conditions, the fluorescence recovery of AuNRs/Au-Ag NCs probe exhibits a linear response to L-Cys concentration ranging from 5 to 100μM, and the corresponding theoretical detection limit (LOD) is 1.73μM. Meanwhile, this method displays excellent sensitivity and selectivity for L-Cys over other amino acids, and it has been successfully applied to detect L-Cys in real samples.

Abstract
The right choice of a fluorescent probe is essential for successful luminescence imaging and sensing and especially concerning in vivo and in vitro applications, the development of new classes have gained more and more attention in the last years. One of the most promising class are upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs)-inorganic nanocrystals capable to convert near-infrared light in high energy radiation. In this review we will compare UCNPs with other fluorescent probes in terms of (a) the optical properties of the probes, such as their brightness, photostability and excitation wavelength; (b) their chemical properties such as the dispersibility, stability under experimental or physiological conditions, availability of chemical modification strategies for labelling; and (c) the potential toxicity and biocompatibility of the probe. Thereby we want to provide a better understanding of the advantages and drawbacks of UCNPs and address future challenges in the design of the nanocrystals.

Abstract
In recent years, along with the rapid development of relevant biological fields, there has been a tremendous motivation to combine molecular imprinting technology (MIT) with biosensing. In this situation, bioprobes and biosensors based on molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have emerged as a reliable candidate for a comprehensive range of applications, from biomolecule detection to drug tracking. Unlike their precursors such as classic immunosensors based on antibody binding and natural receptor elements, MIPs create complementary cavities with stronger binding affinity, while their intrinsic artificial polymers facilitate their use in harsh environments. The major objective of this work is to review recent MIP bioprobes and biosensors, especially those used for biomolecules and drugs. In this review, MIP bioprobes and biosensors are categorized by sensing method, including optical sensing, electrochemical sensing, gravimetric sensing and magnetic sensing, respectively. The working mechanism(s) of each sensing method are thoroughly discussed. Moreover, this work aims to present the cutting-edge structures and modifiers offering higher properties and performances, and clearly point out recent efforts dedicated to introduce multi-sensing and multi-functional MIP bioprobes and biosensors applicable to interdisciplinary fields.

Abstract
Glutathione coated gold and silver nanoclusters (GSH-Au/AgNCs) were synthesized by one-pot reduction methods and are found to be viable fluorescent nanoprobes for cysteine (Cys) and arginine (Arg), with good selectivity over other amino acids. The GSH-Au/AgNCs have two emissions at 616 nm and 412 nm when excited at 360 nm. With the increased concentration of Cys, the ratio of the emission intensities (I616/I412) linearly decreases with Cys in concentration ranging from 0.05 to 10 μM and from 10 to 50 μM, respectively. With increased concentrations of Arg, the ratio of I616/I412 linearly decreases with Arg concentration ranging from 0 to 50 μM and from 50 to 100 μM, respectively. The probe was applied to the determination of Cys and Arg in spiked samples of serum and urine where it gave good recoveries.

Abstract
This paper reviews a wide set of sensing applications based on the special properties associated with inorganic/polymer composite nanoparticles. We first describe optical sensing applications performed with hybrid nanoparticles and hybrid microgels with special emphasis on photoluminescence detection and imaging. Analyte detection with molecularly imprinted polymers and HPLC-based sensing using hybrid nanoparticles as stationary phase is also summarized. The final part is devoted to the study of ultra-sensitive molecule detection by surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy using core-shell hybrid materials composed of noble metal nanoparticles and cross-linked polymers.

Biosens Bioelectron 2014; 66:224-30. [PMID: 25437356 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2014.11.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 45] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2014] [Revised: 11/12/2014] [Accepted: 11/14/2014] [Indexed: 10/24/2022]
Abstract
A new strategy for the manufacture of a turn-on fluorescent molecularly imprinted polymer (CdTe/SiO2/MIP) receptor for detecting tyrosine phosphopeptide (pTyr peptide) was proposed. The receptor was prepared by the surface imprinting procedure and the epitope approach with silica-capped CdTe quantum dots (QDs) as core substrate and fluorescent signal, phenylphosphonic acid (PPA) as the dummy template, 1-[3-(trimethoxysilyl) propyl] urea as the functional monomer, and octyltrimethoxysilane as the cross-linker. The synthetic CdTe/SiO2/MIP was able to selectively capture the template PPA and corresponding target pTyr peptide with fluorescence enhancement via the special interaction between them and the recognition cavities. The receptor exhibited the linear fluorescence enhancement to pTyr peptide in the range of 0.5-35μM, and the detection limit was 0.37μM. The precision for five replicate detections of pTyr peptide at 20μM was 2.60% (relative standard deviation). Combining the fluorescence property of the CdTe QDs with the merits of the surface imprinting technique and the epitope approach, the receptor not only owned high recognition site accessibility and good binding affinities for target pTyr peptide, but also improved the fluorescence selectivity of the CdTe QDs, as well revealed the feasibility of fabrication of a turn-on fluorescence probe using the surface imprinting procedure and the epitope approach.
