Abstract
As a real-time fluid biopsy method, the detection of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) provides important information for the early diagnosis, precise treatment, and prognosis of cancer. However, the low density of CTCs in the peripheral blood hampers their capture and detection with high sensitivity and selectivity using currently available methods. Hence, we designed a sandwich-type electrochemical aptasensor that utilizes holothurian-shaped AuPd nanoparticles (AuPd HSs), tetrahedral DNA nanostructures (TDNs), and CuPdPt nanowire networks (NWs) interwoven with a graphdiyne (GDY) sheet for ultrasensitive non-destructive detection of MCF-7 breast cancer cells. CuPdPt NW-GDY effectively enhanced the electron transfer rate and coupled with the loaded TDNs. The TDNs could capture MCF-7 cells with precision and firmness, and the resulting composite complex was combined with AuPd HSs to form a sandwich-type structure. This novel aptasensor showed a linear range between 10 and 106 cells mL-1 and an ultralow detection limit of 7 cells mL-1. The specificity, stability, and repeatability of the measurements were successfully verified. Moreover, we used benzonase nuclease to achieve non-destructive recovery of cells for further clinical studies. According to the results, our aptasensor was more sensitive measuring the number of CTCs than other approaches because of the employment of TDNs, CuPdPt NW-GDY, and AuPd HSs. We designed a reliable sensor system for the detection of CTCs in the peripheral blood, which could serve as a new approach for cancer diagnosis at an early stage.

[PMID: 38056341 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115891] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2023] [Revised: 11/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/08/2023]
Abstract
Printed circuit board (PCB) based biosensors have often utilized hard gold electroplating, that nullifies the cost advantages of this technology as compared to screen printed electrodes. Electroless nickel immersion gold (ENIG) is a popular gold deposition process widely used in PCB manufacturing, but vulnerable to pinhole defects and large surface roughness, which compromises biosensor performance. In this work, we present a method to address these challenges through electrodeposition of methylene blue (MB) to cover surface defects and improve electroactivity of ENIG PCB electrodes. We also demonstrate a process to realize in situ synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) using acid-functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as scaffold, that are used to immobilize antibody for the target molecule (myeloperoxidase: MPO, early warning biomarker for cardiovascular diseases) through a modified cysteamine/gluteraldehyde based process. The processing steps on the electrode surface are developed in a manner that do not compromise the integrity of the electrode, resulting in repeatable and reliable performance of the sensors. Further, we demonstrate a cost-effective microfluidic packaging process to integrate a capillary pump driven microfluidic channel on the PCB electrode for seamless introduction of samples for testing. We demonstrate the ability of the sensor to distinguish clinically abnormal concentrations of MPO from normal concentrations through extensive characterization using spiked serum and blood plasma samples, with a limit of detection of 15.79 ng/mL.

Abstract
The catalytic efficiency and unrivaled selectivity with which enzymes convert substrates to products have been tapped for widespread chemical transformations within biomedical technology, biofuel production, gas sensing, and the upgrading of commodity chemicals, just to name a few. However, the feasibility of enzymes implementation is challenged by the lack of reusability and loss of native catalytic activity due to the irreversible biocatalyst denaturation at high temperatures and in the presence of industrial solvents. Enzyme immobilization, a prerequisite for enzyme reusability, offers controllable strategies for increased functional viability of the biocatalyst in a synthetic environment. Herein we used molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and probed the noncovalent interactions between model enzymes of technological interest, i.e., carbonic anhydrase (CA) and myeloperoxidase (MPO), with selected metal-organic frameworks (MOFs; MIL-160 and ZIF-8) of proven industrial implementation. We found that the CA and MPO can bind to MIL-160 at optimal binding energies of 201 and 501 kJ mol-1, respectively, that are strongly influenced by the increased incidence of hydrogen bonding between enzymes and the frameworks. The free energy of binding of enzymes to ZIF-8, on the other hand, was found to be less strongly influenced by hydrogen bonding networks relative to the occurrence of hydrophobic-hydrophobic interactions that yielded 106 kJ mol-1 for CA and 201 kJ mol-1 for MPO.

Abstract
The study of the human microbiome is a multidisciplinary area ranging from the field of technology to that of personalized medicine. The possibility of using microbiota biomarkers to improve the diagnosis and monitoring of diseases (e.g., cancer), health conditions (e.g., obesity) or relevant processes (e.g., aging) has raised great expectations, also in the field of bioelectroanalytical chemistry. The well-known advantages of electrochemical biosensors-high sensitivity, fast response, and the possibility of miniaturization, together with the potential for new nanomaterials to improve their design and performance-position them as unique tools to provide a better understanding of the entities of the human microbiome and raise the prospect of huge and important developments in the coming years. This review article compiles recent applications of electrochemical (bio)sensors for monitoring microbial metabolites and disease biomarkers related to different types of human microbiome, with a special focus on the gastrointestinal microbiome. Examples of electrochemical devices applied to real samples are critically discussed, as well as challenges to be faced and where future developments are expected to go.

Abstract
Growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) is a member of the transforming growth factor-β family. GDF-15 is overexpressed in cardiovascular diseases and has become a novel biomarker for these diseases. In this study, we fabricated a label-free electrochemical immunosensor for sensitive detection of GDF-15. Briefly, a three-dimensional braided composite of AuPtCu-SWCNTs@MoS2-rGO (denoted A@M), which served as a label-free immunosensor platform, was obtained by wrapping single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with trimetallic nanoflowers (AuPtCu NFs) woven on a three-dimensional network nanostructure composed of Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanosheets. This optimization improved the ability of the platform to immobilize antibodies, accelerated the reduction of hydrogen peroxide, and promoted the migration rate of electrons on the electrode surface, thereby further amplifying the electrical signal and improving the sensitivity. The constructed sensor exhibited high sensitivity over a wide linear range from 1 pg mL-1 to 50 ng mL-1, with a low detection limit of 0.825 pg mL-1 for GDF-15. The fabricated label-free immunosensor exhibits satisfactory reproducibility, selectivity, and stability. The detection of actual samples was successful, enabling a broad scope of application in the early diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
A novel copper (II) ions [Cu(II)]-graphene oxide (GO) nanocomplex-modified screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) is successfully developed as a versatile electrochemical platform for construction of sensors without an additionally external redox probe. A simple strategy to prepare the redox GO-modified SPCE is described. Such redox GO based on adsorbed Cu(II) is prepared by incubation of GO-modified SPCE in the Cu(II) solution. This work demonstrates the fabrications of two kinds of electrochemical sensors, i.e., a new label-free electrochemical immunosensor and non-enzymatic sensor for detections of immunoglobulin G (IgG) and glucose, respectively. Our immunosensor based on square-wave voltammetry (SWV) of the redox GO-modified electrode shows the linearity in a dynamic range of 1.0-500 pg.mL-1 with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.20 pg.mL-1 for the detection of IgG while non-enzymatic sensor reveals two dynamic ranges of 0.10-1.00 mM (sensitivity = 36.31 μA.mM-1.cm-2) and 1.00-12.50 mM (sensitivity = 3.85 μA.mM-1.cm-2) with a LOD value of 0.12 mM. The novel redox Cu(II)-GO composite electrode is a promising candidate for clinical research and diagnosis.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) cause significant mortality globally. Notably, CVDs disproportionately negatively impact underserved populations, such as those that are economically disadvantaged and often located in remote regions. Devices to measure cardiac biomarkers have traditionally been focused on large instruments in a central laboratory but the development of affordable, portable devices that measure multiple cardiac biomarkers at the point-of-care (POC) are needed to improve clinical outcomes for patients, especially in underserved populations. Considering the enormity of the global CVD problem, complexity of CVDs, and the large candidate pool of biomarkers, it is of great interest to evaluate and compare biomarker performance and identify potential multiplexed panels that can be used in combination with affordable and robust biosensors at the POC toward improved patient care. This review focuses on describing the known and emerging CVD biosensing technologies for analysis of cardiac biomarkers from blood. Initially, the global burden of CVDs and the standard of care for the primary CVD categories, namely heart failure (HF) and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) including myocardial infarction (MI) are discussed. The latest United States, Canadian and European society guidelines recommended standalone, emerging, and add-on cardiac biomarkers, as well as their combinations are then described for the prognosis, diagnosis, and risk stratification of CVDs. Finally, both commercial in vitro biosensing devices and recent state-of-art techniques for detection of cardiac biomarkers are reviewed that leverage single and multiplexed panels of cardiac biomarkers with a view toward affordable, compact devices with excellent performance for POC diagnosis and monitoring.

Abstract
In this study, novel Pd nanowire networks (PdNW) grown on three-dimensional polyaniline hydrogel (3D-PANI) were prepared via a facile one-step electrodeposition approach at a constant potential of - 0.2 V and further utilized as an electrochemical sensing material for sensitive determination of glucose in alkaline medium. Compared with the sensor based on Pd nanofilm (PdNF)/3D-PANI prepared by electrodeposition at - 0.9 V, the sensor based on PdNW/3D-PANI presented substantially enhanced electrocatalytic activity towards glucose oxidation, with an excellent sensitivity of 146.6 μA mM-1 cm-2, a linear range from 5.0 to 9800 μM, and a low detection limit of 0.7 μM and was, therefore, demonstrated to be available for the determination of glucose in human serum. These findings are likely attributed to the combination of advantages of both PdNW and 3D-PANI, which outperformed most other Pd-based non-enzymatic glucose sensors reported earlier. Moreover, this non-enzymatic electrochemical sensor based on PdNW/3D-PANI may serve as an alternative tool for the assay of glucose and possibly other biomolecules. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
This work provides a succinct insight into the recent developments in electrochemical quantification of vital biomedical markers using hybrid metallic composite nanostructures. After a brief introduction to the biomarkers, five types of crucial biomarkers, which require timely and periodical monitoring, are shortlisted, namely, cancer, cardiac, inflammatory, diabetic and renal biomarkers. This review emphasizes the usage and advantages of hybrid nanostructured materials as the recognition matrices toward the detection of vital biomarkers. Different transduction methods (fluorescence, electrophoresis, chemiluminescence, electrochemiluminescence, surface plasmon resonance, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy) reported for the biomarkers are discussed comprehensively to present an overview of the current research works. Recent advancements in the electrochemical (amperometric, voltammetric, and impedimetric) sensor systems constructed with metal nanoparticle-derived hybrid composite nanostructures toward the selective detection of chosen vital biomarkers are specifically analyzed. It describes the challenges involved and the strategies reported for the development of selective, sensitive, and disposable electrochemical biosensors with the details of fabrication, functionalization, and applications of hybrid metallic composite nanostructures.

Abstract
Electrochemiluminescence immunoassays are usually carried out through "on-electrode" strategy, i.e., sandwich-type immunoassay format, the sensitivity of which is restricted by two key bottlenecks: (1) the number of signal labels is limited and (2) only a part of signal labels could participate in the electrode reaction. In this Perspective, we discuss the development of an "in-electrode" Faraday-cage-type concept-based immunocomplex immobilization strategy. The biggest difference from the traditional sandwich-type one is that the designed "in-electrode" Faraday-cage-type immunoassay uses a conductive two-dimensional (2-D) nanomaterial simultaneously coated with signal labels and a recognition component as the detection unit, which could directly overlap on the electrode surface. In such a case, electrons could flow freely from the electrode to the detection unit, the outer Helmholtz plane (OHP) of the electrode is extended, and thousands of signal labels coated on the 2-D nanomaterial are all electrochemically "effective." Thus, then, the above-mentioned bottlenecks obstructing the improvement of the sensitivity in sandwich-type immunoassay are eliminated, and as a result a much higher sensitivity of the Faraday-cage-type immunoassay can be obtained. And, the applications of the proposed versatile "in-electrode" Faraday-cage-type immunoassay have been explored in the detection of target polypeptide, protein, pathogen, and microRNA, with the detection sensitivity improved tens to hundreds of times. Finally, the outlook and challenges in the field are summarized. The rise of Faraday-cage-type electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (FCT-ECLIA)-based biosensing strategies opens new horizons for a wide range of early clinical identification and diagnostic applications.

Abstract
An ultrasensitive sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor was developed for the amperometric determination of serum myeloperoxidase (MPO). The method is making use of (a) gold nanoparticles encapsulated in graphitized mesoporous carbons (AuNP@GMC); and (b) horseradish peroxidase (HRP) labeled secondary antibody (HRP@Ab2) immobilized on AuNP@GMC. MPO capture antibody (Ab1) was immobilized on the electrode modified with an AuNP-graphene oxide nanocomposite. The sandwich immunoreaction leads to the formation of the complex composed of Ab1, MPO, and HRP@Ab2. An amplified electrochemical signal is produced by electrocatalytic reduction of H2O2 (at a typical voltage of -0.18 V vs. Ag/AgCl) in the presence of enzymatically oxidized thionine. The peak current of thionine was measured using differential pulse voltammetry. Under optimized steady-state conditions, the reduction peak increases in the 1 to 300 pg.mL-1 MPO concentration range, and the detection limit is 0.1 pg.mL-1 (at S/N = 3). Graphical abstract Schematic presentation of AuNP-GO based sandwich-type electrochemical immunoassay for the determination of myeloperoxidase by using gold nanoparticles encapsulated in graphitized mesoporous carbons (AuNP@GMC) as a carrier for horseradish peroxidase (HRP) labeled secondary antibody (HRP@Ab2).

Abstract
Strategies to detect and characterize myeloperoxidase (MPO) are needed, given that this "split personality" enzyme kills harmful microorganisms but also damages a host tissue. Here, we describe electrochemical approaches to measure MPO by using the pseudohalogenation (MPO/SCN-/H2O2) and catalase-like (MPO/H2O2) cycles. Their kinetics were determined by monitoring the consumption of H2O2 with a nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (N-CNT) electrode, which could detect 0.50 μM H2O2 at -0.20 V. The unique design of internally calibrated electrochemical continuous enzyme assay (ICECEA) and electrode stability allowed use of one N-CNT electrode for over half a year to reliably determine MPO. The kinetic measurements showed that (a) SCN- did not affect the affinity of MPO for H2O2, (b) catalase-like cycle was slower, and (c) MPO retained enzymatically active conformation after complexation with its antibody Ab both in a solution and on the surface of an antibody dipstick (d/Ab). The homogeneous assays could detect 5.2 μg L-1 MPO (35 pM) via a faster cycle. The heterogeneous immunoassays with the capture of MPO on d/Ab could detect 60 μg L-1, which was suitable for the accurate detection of MPO in human saliva (101% recovery). Replacing a detection antibody of ELISA with ICECEA as a signal transducer for immunoassays offers a rapid method for the selective determination of enzymes; for example, time of MPO quantification was cut from 3-4 h (sandwich ELISA) to ∼20 min (ICECEA-dipstick).
