Abstract
Dopamine (DA) is the most abundant catecholamine neurotransmitter in the brain and plays an extremely essential role in the physiological activities of the living organism. There is a critical need for accurately and efficiently detecting DA levels in organisms in order to reflect physiological states. Carbon nitride quantum dots (C3N4) were, in recent years, used enormously as electrochemical and fluorescence probes for the detection of metal ions, biomarkers and other environmental or food impurities due to their unique advantageous optical and electronic properties. 3-Aminophenylboronic acid (3-APBA) can specifically combine with DA through an aggregation effect, providing an effective DA detection method. In this work, 3-APBA modified carbon nitride quantum dots (3-APBA-CNQDs) were synthesized from urea and sodium citrate. The structure, chemical composition and optical properties of 3-APBA-CNQDs were investigated by XRD, TEM, UV-visible, and FT-IR spectroscopy. The addition of DA could induce fluorescence quenching of 3-APBA-CNQDs possibly through the inner filter effect (IFE). 3-APBA-CNQDs shows better selectivity and sensitivity to DA than other interfering substances. By optimizing the experiment conditions, good linearity was obtained at 0.10-51μM DA with a low detection limit of 22.08 nM. More importantly, 3-APBA-CNQDs have been successfully applied for the detection of DA in human urine and blood samples as well as for bioimaging of intracellular DA. This study provides a promising novel method for the rapid detection of DA in real biological samples.

Abstract
The combination of nanomaterials (NMs) and aptamers into aptasensors enables highly specific and sensitive detection of diverse pollutants. The great potential of aptasensors is recognized for the detection of diverse emerging organic pollutants (EOPs) in different environmental and biological matrices. In addition to high sensitivity and selectivity, NM-based aptasensors have many other advantages such as portability, miniaturization, facile use, and affordability. This work showcases the recent advances achieved in the design and fabrication of NM-based aptasensors for monitoring EOPs (e.g., hormones, phenolic contaminants, pesticides, and pharmaceuticals). On the basis of their sensing mechanisms, the covered aptasensing systems are classified as electrochemical, colorimetric, PEC, fluorescence, SERS, and ECL. Special attention has been paid to the fabrication processes, analytical achievements, and sensing mechanisms of NM-based aptasensors. Further, the practical utility of aptasensing approaches has also been assessed based on their basic performance metrics (e.g., detection limits, sensing ranges, and response times).

Mikrochim Acta 2023; 190:131. [PMID: 36912979 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-023-05701-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Accepted: 02/10/2023] [Indexed: 03/14/2023]
Abstract
An "on-off-on"-type electrochemiluminescence (ECL) aptamer sensor based on Ru@Zn-oxalate metal-organic framework (MOF) composites is constructed for sensitive detection of sulfadimethoxine (SDM). The prepared Ru@Zn-oxalate MOF composites with the three-dimensional structure provide good ECL performance for the "signal-on." The MOF structure with a large surface area enables the material to fix more Ru(bpy)32+. Moreover, the Zn-oxalate MOF with three-dimensional chromophore connectivity provides a medium which can accelerate excited-state energy transfer migration among Ru(bpy)32+ units, and greatly reduces the influence of solvent on chromophore, achieving a high-energy Ru emission efficiency. The aptamer chain modified with ferrocene at the end can hybridize with the capture chain DNA1 fixed on the surface of the modified electrode through base complementary pairing, which can significantly quench the ECL signal of Ru@Zn-oxalate MOF. SDM specifically binds to its aptamer to separate ferrocene from the electrode surface, resulting in a "signal-on" ECL signal. The use of the aptamer chain further improves the selectivity of the sensor. Thus, high-sensitivity detection of SDM specificity is realized through the specific affinity between SDM and its aptamer. This proposed ECL aptamer sensor has good analytical performance for SDM with low detection limit (27.3 fM) and wide detection range (100 fM-500 nM). The sensor also shows excellent stability, selectivity, and reproducibility, which proved its analytical performance. The relative standard deviation (RSD) of SDM detected by the sensor is between 2.39 and 5.32%, and the recovery is in the range 97.23 to 107.5%. The sensor shows satisfactory results in the analysis of actual seawater samples, which is expected to play a role in the exploration of marine environmental pollution.

Abstract
Hydrogen generation from splitting of water under the photoelectrochemical (PEC) pathway is considered as the most promising strategy for covering the upcoming fuel crisis by taking care of all environmental issues. In this context, In2S3 can be explored as it is a visible light-active semiconductor with an appropriate band alignment with the water redox potential. Herein, In2S3 nanosheets are developed by the chemical method. The nanosheets of In2S3 absorb high visible light due to the manifold inside scattering and reflection. The PEC activity of In2S3 is enhanced because of the increase in the light absorbance of the materials. In the present work, at 1.18 V versus RHE in 3.5 wt % NaCl, a maximum 2.07 mA/cm2 photocurrent density can be achieved by In2S3 nanosheets. However, In2S3 suffers strongly due to photo-corrosion. To improve the efficacy of the In2S3 nanosheets in saline water, the charge-carrier transportation ability of In2S3 is aimed to increase by decorating S-C3N4-dots on In2S3. The heterostructure of type-II is developed by sensitization of S-C3N4-dots on In2S3. It increases both the transportation of charge carriers as well as separation. In the heterostructure, the transient decay time (τ) increases, which indicates a decrease in photogenerated charge-carrier recombination. S-C3N4-dots also act as an optical antenna and increase the range of visible light absorbance of In2S3. The heterostructure can generate ∼2.38-fold higher photocurrent density of 1.18 V versus RHE in 3.5 wt % NaCl. The photoconversion efficiency of the heterostructure is 0.88% at 0.95 V versus RHE. The nanosheets of In2S3 and In2S3/S-C3N4-dots are stable, and photocurrent density is measured up to 2700 s under continuous back-illumination conditions.

Nanozymes have piqued the curiosity of scientists in recent years because of their ability to demonstrate enzyme-like activity combined with advantages such as high stability, inexpensive availability, robust activity, and tunable properties. These attributes have allowed the successful application of nanozymes in sensing to detect various chemical and biological target analytes, overcoming the shortcomings of conventional detection techniques. In this review, we discuss recent developments of nanozyme-based sensors to detect biomarkers associated with food quality and safety. First, we present a brief introduction to this topic, followed by discussing the different types of sensors used in food biomarker detection. We then highlight recent studies on nanozyme-based sensors to detect food markers such as toxins, pathogens, antibiotics, growth hormones, metal ions, additives, small molecules, and drug residues. In the subsequent section, we discuss the challenges and possible solutions towards the development of nanozyme-based sensors for application in the food industry. Finally, we conclude the review by discussing future perspectives of this field towards successful detection and monitoring of food analytes.

Abstract
Antibiotics are often used in human and veterinary medicine for the treatment of bacterial diseases. However, extensive use of antibiotics in agriculture can result in the contamination of common food staples such as milk. Consumption of contaminated products can cause serious illness and a rise in antibiotic resistance. Conventional methods of antibiotics detection such are microbiological assays chromatographic and mass spectroscopy methods are sensitive; however, they require qualified personnel, expensive instruments, and sample pretreatment. Biosensor technology can overcome these drawbacks. This review is focused on the recent achievements in the electrochemical biosensors based on nucleic acid aptamers for antibiotic detection. A brief explanation of conventional methods of antibiotic detection is also provided. The methods of the aptamer selection are explained, together with the approach used for the improvement of aptamer affinity by post-SELEX modification and computer modeling. The substantial focus of this review is on the explanation of the principles of the electrochemical detection of antibiotics by aptasensors and on recent achievements in the development of electrochemical aptasensors. The current trends and problems in practical applications of aptasensors are also discussed.

Abstract
Residual antibiotics in food products originated from administration of the antibiotics to animals may be accumulated through food metabolism in the human body and endanger safety and health. Thus, developing a prompt and accurate way for detection of antibiotics is a crucial issue. The zero-dimensional fluorescent probes including metals based, carbon and graphene quantum dots (QDs), are highly sensitive materials to use for the detection of a wide range of antibiotics in natural products. These QDs demonstrate unique optical properties like tunable photoluminescence (PL) and excitation-wavelength dependent emission. This study investigates the trends related to carbon and metal based QDs preparation and modification, and their diverse detection application. We discuss the performance of QDs based sensors application in various detection systems such as photoluminescence, photoelectrochemical, chemiluminescence, electrochemiluminescence, colorimetric, as well as describing their working principles in several samples. The detecting mechanism of a QDs-based sensor is dependent on its properties and specific interactions with particular antibiotics. This review also tries to describe environmental application and future perspective of QDs for antibiotics detection.

Abstract
Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) is a two-dimensional conjugated polymer that has attracted the interest of researchers and industrial communities owing to its outstanding analytical merits such as low-cost synthesis, high stability, unique electronic properties, catalytic ability, high quantum yield, nontoxicity, metal-free, low bandgap energy, and electron-rich properties. Notably, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) is the most stable allotrope of carbon nitrides. It has been explored in various analytical fields due to its excellent biocompatibility properties, including ease of surface functionalization and hydrogen-bonding. Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) acts as a nanomediator and serves as an immobilization layer to detect various biomolecules. Numerous reports have been presented in the literature on applying graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) for the construction of electrochemical sensors and biosensors. Different electrochemical techniques such as cyclic voltammetry, electrochemiluminescence, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, square wave anodic stripping voltammetry, and amperometry techniques have been extensively used for the detection of biologic molecules and heavy metals, with high sensitivity and good selectivity. For this reason, the leading drive of this review is to stress the importance of employing graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) for the fabrication of electrochemical sensors and biosensors.

Abstract
Antibiotics, a kind of secondary metabolite with antipathogen effects as well as other properties, are produced by microorganisms (including bacterium, fungi, and actinomyces) or higher animals and plants during their lives. Furthermore, as a chemical, an antibiotic can disturb the developmental functions of other living cells. Moreover, it is impossible to avoid its pervasion into all kinds of environmental media via all kinds of methods, and it thus correspondingly becomes a trigger for environmental risks. As described above, antibiotics are presently deemed as a new type of pollution, with their content in media (for example, water, or food) as the focus. Due to their special qualities, nanomaterials, the most promising sensing material, can be adopted to produce sensors with extraordinary detection performance and good stability that can be applied to detection in complicated materials. For low-dimensional (LD) nanomaterials, the quantum size effect, and dielectric confinement effect are particularly strong. Therefore, they are most commonly applied in the detection of antibiotics. This article focuses on the influence of LD nanomaterials on antibiotics detection, summarizes the application of LD nanomaterials in antibiotics detection and the theorem of sensors in all kinds of antibiotics detection, illustrates the approaches to optimizing the sensitivity of sensors, such as mixture and modification, and also discusses the trend of the application of LD nanomaterials in antibiotics detection.

Abstract
This study introduces a computational method to design a new aptamer with higher binding affinity to a special target in comparison with the experimentally available aptamers. The method is called step by step mutation based on MD simulation, which includes some steps. First, MD simulation is performed for the SELEX-introduced (native) aptamer in the presence of the target. Afterwards, conformational factor (Pi) is calculated for the simulated system, which obtains the affinity of the aptamer residues to the target. A nucleotide exchange is done for the residue with the least Pi parameter to the nucleotide with the highest Pi value that results in a mutant aptamer. MD simulation is performed for the target-mutant complex, and Pi values are calculated again. The nucleotide exchange is performed similarly, and the designing process is proceeded repeatedly that results in a mutant with the improved specificity to the target. The aptamer affinity to the target is also determined in each step through calculating the binding Gibbs energy (ΔGBind) as a reliable parameter. The introduced strategy is utilized efficiently to design a mutant aptamer with improved specificity toward sulfadimethoxine (SDM) antibiotic as a case study. The great difference in the ΔGBind values about 579.856 kJ mol-1 highlights that the M5 mutant possesses the improved specificity toward SDM in comparison with the native aptamer. Besides, the selectivity of the M5 aptamer toward SDM is examined among some conventional interfering compounds by using MD simulation that confirms the applicability of the designed aptamer for further experimental studies.

Abstract
In this research work, a biosensor with a dual recognition system was fabricated and founded on a combination of aptasensing and the molecular imprinting union of the chloramphenicol (CAP) selective detection. CAP, is an antibiotic, was applied in veterinary and human in order to treat gram-positive and gram-negative infections. It is worth mentioning that CAP residue brings about earnest side effects on human health. According to this, in this sensing system, 3-aminomethyl pyridine functionalized graphene oxide (GO) (3-ampy-RGO) has been coated on the surface of GCE. Afterwards, the silver nanoparticle (AgNPs) was coated on the 3-ampy-RGO/GCE and, then, the CAP complex-amino-aptamer (NH2-Apt[CAP]) was attached to the AgNP/3-ampy-RGO/GCE using a kind of bonding formation of Ag-N. In this sense, it is worth noting that the resorcinol electropolymerization around the complex of aptamer/CAP would confine the complex and, then, retain the aptamer. Following the CAP removal, the MIP cavity, as it was supposed, synergistically acted with that of the embedded aptamer in order to construct a nanohybrid receptor. Interestingly, the double exact property of the molecular imprinting polymers and aptamers led to the superb sensing properties. In the mentioned system it was illustrated that the linear range was from 1.0 pM to 1.0 nM with the detection limit of 0.3 pM; consequently, as observed, it was better than or as good as other similar assays. Moreover, the mentioned system whose activity was observed in the various interferences presence showed great selectivity in detected the CAP. Finally, the designed sensor exhibited outstanding results when applied to detect CAP in milk samples.

Abstract
A photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensor was constructed for the detection of non-electroactive malathion. It is based on the use of a hierarchical CuO material derived from a Cu-BTC metal-organic framework (where BTC stands for benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid). The modified CuO was obtained by calcination of Cu-BTC at a high temperature (300 °C) and possesses a high photocurrent conversion efficiency. Under irradiation with visible light and in the presence of malathion, the formation of the CuO-malathion complex on the CuO gave rise to an increase in steric hindrance. This results in a decrease in photocurrent. This novel PEC detection method has a lower detection limit of 8.6 × 10-11 mol L-1 and a wide linear range (1.0 × 10-10 ~ 1.0 × 10-5 mol L-1). Graphical abstract Schematic presentation of the Cu-BTC MOF derived photoelectrochemical sensor for non-electroactive malathion detection.

Abstract
The authors describe an amplified photoelectrochemical immunoassay for the tumor marker carbohydrate antigen 724 (CA724). The method employs a C3N4-MoS2 semiconductor as the photoelectric conversion layer. The nanocomposite was characterized by transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, and UV-vis diffuse reflectometry. The dye eosin Y was encapsulated into CaCO3 nanospheres which then were used as labels for antibody against CA724. In addition, Fe3O4 nanospheres were employed as magnetic platform for constructing photoelectrochemical sandwich immunoassay. The CaCO3 nanospheres can be dissolved with aid of ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) and the carried eosin Y in CaCO3 is released. The released dyes sensitizes the C3N4-MoS2 semiconductor, which induces photocurrent amplification. Under optimal conditions and at a typical working voltage of 0 V (vs. SCE), the photocurrent increases linearly in the range of 0.05 mU mL-1 to 500 mU mL-1 of CA724, with a 0.02 mU mL-1 detection limit. Graphical abstract The C3N4-MoS2 complex, with high efficiency of electron transport, was synthesized to construct a photoelectrochemical analytical platform. A sandwich-type immunoassay was established on the surface of magnetic beads. Carbohydrate antigen 724 in sample was detected sensitively by using sensitization of released eosin Y as signal amplifiery.

Abstract
As a new analysis tool, photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensors have been widely studied in recent years. However, common PEC biosensors usually require a highly stable light source to excite the electrical signal and an electrochemical workstation to collect and process the signal data, which limited the development of portable PEC devices. Herein, we propose the design of a sunlight powered portable PEC biosensor that uses sunlight as the light source. The sunlight intensity changes over time and weather and results in varied background PEC currents. To eliminate the interference caused by unstable excitation light, the potentiometric resolve ratiometric principle was introduced. Coupled with a miniature electrochemical workstation and a laptop, a sensitive and portable PEC sensing platform was successfully developed. The detection may be achieved under the irradiation of sunlight and will no longer need an extra light source. In a proof of concept experiment, this platform was successfully applied in aflatoxin B1 analysis, which was promising in the development of portable biosensors.
