Abstract
Fluorescently labeled DNA oligonucleotides and gold nanospheres have been frequently utilized in biosensors, providing efficient nucleic acid detection. Nevertheless, the restricted loading capacity of gold nanospheres undermines overall sensitivity. In this study, we employed four-atom-thick ultrathin gold nanosheets (AuNSs), utilizing a "pre-mix model" for rapid target nucleic acid detection. In this approach, fluorescently labeled DNA probes were pre-incubated with the target nucleic acid, followed by the addition of AuNSs for probe adsorption and fluorescence quenching. With the developed method, we efficiently and rapidly detected the SARS-CoV-2 N gene sequence within 30 min, involving a brief 15-min target pre-incubation and a subsequent 15-min adsorption of free probes and fluorescence quenching by AuNSs. This method exhibited heightened sensitivity compared to gold nanospheres, boasting a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.808 nM. Furthermore, exceptional recovery was achieved in simulated biological samples. The study introduces an effective strategy for nucleic acid sensing characterized by rapidity, heightened sensitivity, ease of operation, and robustness. These findings encourage further development of rapid biomarker sensing methods employing 2D nanomaterials.

Abstract
Lead pollution has remained a significant global concern for several decades due to its detrimental effects on the brain, heart, kidneys, lungs, and immune system across all age groups. Addressing the demand for detecting trace amounts of lead in food samples, we have developed a novel biosensor based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) from fluorescein R6G to gold nanoclusters (AuNCs-CCY). By utilizing polypeptides as a template, we successfully synthesized AuNCs-CCY with an excitation spectrum that overlaps with the emission spectrum of R6G. Exploiting the fact that Pb2+ induces the aggregation of gold nanoclusters, leading to the separation of R6G from AuNCs-CCY and subsequent fluorescence recovery, we achieved the quantitative detection of Pb2+. Within the concentration range of 0.002-0.20 μM, a linear relationship was observed between the fluorescence enhancement value (F-F0) and Pb2+ concentration, characterized by the linear equation y = 2398.69x + 87.87 (R2 = 0.996). The limit of detection (LOD) for Pb2+ was determined to be 0.00079 μM (3σ/K). The recovery rate ranged from 96 % to 104 %, with a relative standard deviation (RSD) below 10 %. These findings demonstrate the potential application value of our biosensor, which offers a promising approach to address the urgent need for sensitive detection of heavy metal ions, specifically Pb2+, in food samples.

Highly selective detection of deoxyribonucleic acid in living cells using RecA-green fluorescent protein-single-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid filament fluorescence resonance energy transfer probe.

Abstract
A fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) method was developed for double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (dsDNA) detection in living cells using the RecA-GFP (green fluorescent protein) fusion protein filament. In brief, the thiol-modified single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) was attached to gold nanoparticles (AuNPs); on the contrary, the prepared RecA-GFP fusion protein interacted with ssDNA. Due to the FRET between AuNPs and RecA-GFP, fluorescence of RecA-GFP fusion protein was quenched. In the presence of homologous dsDNA, homologous recombination occurred to release RecA-GFP fusion protein. Thus, the fluorescence of RecA-GFP was recovered. The dsDNA concentration was detected using fluorescence intensity of RecA-GFP. Under optimal conditions, this method could detect dsDNA activity as low as 0.015 optical density (OD) Escherichia coli cells, with a wide linear range from 0.05 to 0.9 OD cells, and the regression equation was ΔF = 342.7c + 78.9, with a linear relationship coefficient of 0.9920. Therefore, it provided a promising approach for the selective detection of dsDNA in living cells for early clinical diagnosis of genetic diseases.

Abstract
Carbon dots@noble metal nanoparticle composites are formed by combining carbon dots and metal nanoparticles using various strategies. Carbon dots exhibit a reducing ability and function as stabilisers; consequently, metal-ion solutions can be directly reduced by them to synthesise gold, silver, and gold-silver alloy particles. Carbon dots@gold/silver/gold-silver particle composites have demonstrated the potential for several practical applications owing to their superior properties and simple preparation process. Until now, several review articles have been published to summarise fluorescent carbon dots or noble metal nanomaterials. Compared with metal-free carbon dots, carbon dots@noble metal nanoparticles have a unique morphology and structure, resulting in new physicochemical properties, which allow for sensing, bioimaging, and bacteriostasis applications. Therefore, to promote the effective development of carbon dots@noble metal nanoparticle composites, this paper primarily reviews carbon dots@gold/silver/gold-silver alloy nanoparticle composites for the first time in terms of the following aspects. (1) The synthesis strategies of carbon dots@noble metal nanoparticle composites are outlined. The principle and function of carbon dots in the synthesis strategies are examined. The advantages and disadvantages of these methods and composites are analysed. (2) The characteristics and properties of such composites are described. (3) The applications of these composite materials are summarised. Finally, the potentials and limitations of carbon dots@noble metal nanoparticle composites are discussed, thus laying the foundation for their further development.

Abstract
Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), a coronavirus that causes highly infectious intestinal diarrhea in piglets, has led to severe economic losses worldwide. Rapid diagnosis and timely supervision are significant in the prophylaxis of PEDV. Herein, we proposed a gold-nanorod (GNR) probe-assisted counting method using dark field microscopy (DFM). The antibody-functionalized silicon chips were prepared to capture PEDV to form sandwich structures with GNR probes for imaging under DFM. Results show that our DFM-based assay for PEDV has a sensitivity of 23.80 copies/μL for simulated real samples, which is very close to that of qPCR in this study. This method of GNR probes combined with DFM for quantitative detection of PEDV not only has strong specificity, good repeatability, and a low detection limit, but it also can be implemented for rapid on-site detection of the pathogens.

Abstract
Single-stranded peptide nucleic acid (PNA) probes interact strongly with several nanomaterials, and the interaction was diminished in the presence of complementary nucleic acid targets which forms the basis of many nucleic acid sensing platforms. As opposed to the negatively charged DNA probes, the charges on the PNA probes may be fine-tuned by incorporating amino acids with charged side chains. The contribution of electrostatic effects to the interaction between PNA probes and nanomaterials has been largely overlooked. This work reveals that electrostatic effects substantially enhanced the quenching of dye-labeled conformationally constrained pyrrolidinyl PNA probes by several nanomaterials including graphene oxide (GO), reduced graphene oxide, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), and silver nanoparticles. The fluorescence quenching and the color change from red to purple in the case of AuNPs because of aggregation were inhibited in the presence of complementary nucleic acid targets. Thus, fluorescence and colorimetric assays for DNA and RNA that can distinguish even single-base-mismatched nucleic acids with improved sensitivity over conventional DNA probes were established. Both the GO- and AuNP-based sensing platforms have been successfully applied for the detection of real DNA and RNA samples in vitro and in living cells. This study emphasizes the active roles of electrostatic effects in the PNA-nanomaterial interactions, which paves the way toward improving the performance of PNA-nanomaterial based assays of nucleic acids.

Abstract
In this paper, a simple and effective fluorescence turn-on approach for highly sensitive and selective monitoring Hg2+ ions was designed by using carbon dots (CDs) and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). It reveals that the fluorescence of CDs solution can be quenched in the presence of AgNPs through inner filter effect (IFE) and the quenched CDs-AgNPs system is turned on after addition of Hg2+ ions, which is due to higher affinity of Hg2+ and AgNPs than that of CDs and AgNPs, thus resulting the disappearance of AgNPs from the CDs-AgNPs composites and leading to the fluorescence turn-on of CDs. The developed fluorescence turn-on approach exhibited high selectivity and sensitivity for detection of Hg2+. Under the optimum experimental conditions, good linearity was achieved over the range of 100-160 μM and the limit of detection (LOD) was estimated to be 2.22×10-8 M for Hg2+. The recoveries of Hg2+ spiked in real samples ranged from 98.4% to 101.6%. Results of this study suggest that the fluorescence turn-on approach can be used to the detection of Hg2+ in real water samples.

Abstract
The rampaging COVID-19 needs bioassaying methods of low cost and high robustness for those living in the poorly developed regions. Here, we propose such a method that does not need expensive and complicated equipment. Only a set of hand-held small devices is sufficient. A section along an optic fiber cable is stripped, so that laser light travelling through it will leak outside, while biosensing process taken place on this stripped section can form a new cladding layer of hydrogel, restoring the laser output of the fiber. A short peptide probe immobilized on the stripped section of the fiber can covalently capture a biomarker protein of SARS-Cov-2 from the serum sample. Through the cross-linking of the target protein with the interfering proteins in the serum sample, a hydrogel is covalently immobilized around the stripped section, highly resistant to detergent rinsing that is indispensable for removing nonspecific interference from the clinical sample. Using this "covalent biosensing" strategy, only one peptide probe is sufficient to simultaneously achieve ultrahigh affinity toward the biomarker protein of SARS-Cov-2 and effective signal amplification.

Abstract
DNA nanotechnology has proven to be a powerful strategy for the bottom-up preparation of colloidal nanoparticle (NP) superstructures, enabling the coordination of multiple NPs with orientation and separation approaching nanometer precision. To do this, NPs are often conjugated with chemically modified, single-stranded (ss) DNA that can recognize complementary ssDNA on the DNA nanostructure. The limitation is that many NPs cannot be easily conjugated with ssDNA, and other conjugation strategies are expensive, inefficient, or reduce the specificity and/or precision with which NPs can be placed. As an alternative, the conjugation of nanoparticle-binding peptides and peptide nucleic acids (PNA) can produce peptide-PNA with distinct NP-binding and DNA-binding domains. Here, we demonstrate a simple application of this method to conjugate semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) directly to DNA nanostructures by means of a peptide-PNA with a six-histidine peptide motif that binds to the QD surface. With this method, we achieved greater than 90% capture efficiency for multiple QDs on a single DNA nanostructure while preserving both site specificity and precise spatial control of QD placement. Additionally, we investigated the effects of peptide-PNA charge on the efficacy of QD immobilization in suboptimal conditions. The results validate peptide-PNA as a viable alternative to ssDNA conjugation of NPs and warrant studies of other NP-binding peptides for peptide-PNA conjugation.
