Photoelectrochemical and visual dual-mode sensor for efficient detection of Cry1Ab protein based on the proximity hybridization driven specific desorption of multifunctional probe. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 441:129759. [PMID: 36058185 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.129759] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2022] [Revised: 08/06/2022] [Accepted: 08/08/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Currently, the development of sensitive and visual strategy for Cry1Ab detection, particularly using a switchable dual-mode detection system based on a single component, remains a great challenge. Here, a photoelectrochemical (PEC) and visual dual-mode sensor was designed for Cry1Ab detection based on a proximity hybridization driven multifunctional probe. In the presence of Cry1Ab, specific desorption of the antibody-DNA conjugate was achieved via sufficient proximity hybridization, leading to the selective release of the multifunctional signal probe, i.e., antibody-labeled single-stranded DNA-gold nanoparticles (Ab1-S1-AuNPs). The released Ab1-S1-AuNPs reduced the photocurrent signal and produced a colored response, thereby achieving PEC and visual dual-mode detection based on a single component. Owing to the different signal generation mechanisms, two independent signals were obtained simultaneously, which provided self-verification to improve reliability and accuracy. Taking advantage of the PEC sensitive detection and visual prediction, the dual-mode sensor achieved efficient detection of the Cry1Ab protein. The developed sensor was successfully used to determine Cry1Ab in corn, wheat, and soil samples with satisfactory results. This method offers a promising biosensing platform for the on-site detection of Cry1Ab protein.

Abstract
Genetically modified (GM) crops containing phosphinothricin acetyltransferase (PAT) protein has been widely planted worldwide. The development of a rapid method for detecting PAT protein is of great importance to food supervision. In this study, a simple label-free electrochemical immunosensor for the ultrasensitive detection of PAT protein was constructed using thionine (Thi)/gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as signal amplification molecules and electrochemically active substances. Under optimum conditions, the limits of detection of the sensor for soybean A2704-12 and maize BT-176 were 0.02% and 0.03%, respectively. The sensor could detect crops containing PAT protein and had no cross-reaction with other proteins. After storage at 4°C for 33 days, the sensor still retained 82.5% of the original signal, with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of 0.92%. The recoveries of the sensor for soybean A2704-12 and maize BT-176 were 85%-108% and 98%-113%, respectively. The developed PAT-target immunosensor with high sensitivity, specificity, and satisfactory reproducibility and accuracy will be a useful tool in the trace screening of GM crops. Moreover, this design concept can be extended to other proteins by simply changing the antibody.

Abstract
Insect-resistant genetically modified organisms have been globally commercialized for the last 2 decades. Among them, transgenic crops based on Bacillus thuringiensis crystalline (Cry) toxins are extensively used for commercial agricultural applications. However, less emphasis is laid on quantifying Cry toxins because there might be unforeseen health and environmental concerns. Immunoassays, being the preferred method for detection of Cry toxins, are reviewed in this study. Owing to limitations of traditional colorimetric enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, the trend of detection strategies shifts to modified immunoassays based on nanomaterials, which provide ultrasensitive detection capacity. This review assessed and compared the properties of the recent advances in immunoassays, including colorimetric, fluorescence, chemiluminescence, surface-enhanced Raman scattering, surface plasmon resonance, and electrochemical approaches. Thus, the ultimate aim of this study is to identify research gaps and infer future prospects of current approaches for the development of novel immunosensors to monitor Cry toxins in food and the environment.

Abstract
Cry toxins have been widely used in genetically modified organisms for pest control, raising public concern regarding their effects on the natural environment and food safety. In this work, a phage-mediated competitive chemiluminescent immunoassay (c-CLIA) was developed for determination of Cry1Ab toxin using anti-idiotypic camel nanobodies. By extracting RNA from camels' peripheral blood lymphocytes, a naive phage-displayed nanobody library was established. Using anti-Cry1Ab toxin monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against the library for anti-idiotypic antibody screening, four anti-idiotypic nanobodies were selected and confirmed to be specific for anti-Cry1Ab mAb binding. Thereafter, a c-CLIA was developed for detection of Cry1Ab toxin based on anti-idiotypic camel nanobodies and employed for sample testing. The results revealed a half-inhibition concentration of developed assay to be 42.68 ± 2.54 ng/mL, in the linear range of 10.49-307.1 ng/mL. The established method is highly specific for Cry1Ab recognition, with negligible cross-reactivity for other Cry toxins. For spiked cereal samples, the recoveries of Cry1Ab toxin ranged from 77.4% to 127%, with coefficient of variation of less than 9%. This study demonstrated that the competitive format based on phage-displayed anti-idiotypic nanobodies can provide an alternative strategy for Cry toxin detection.

Abstract
Impedimetric analysis method is an important tool for food safety detection. In this work, a novel impedimetric microfluidic analysis system consisted of a printed gold electrode chip and a microfluidic flow cell was developed for sensitive and selective detection of transgenic protein Cry1Ab. Anti-Cry1Ab aptamer coated magnetic beads were used to recognize transgenic protein Cry1Ab and form Cry1Ab-aptamer modified magnetic beads. After separation, the obtained Cry1Ab-aptamer modified magnetic beads were dissolved in 0.01 M mannitol and followed by injection into the microfluidic flow cell for impedimetric measurement. At the frequency of 358.3 Hz, the impedance signal shows a good linearity with the concentrations of Cry1Ab protein at a range from 0 to 0.2 nM, and the detection limit is 0.015 nM. The results demonstrate that the impedimetric microfluidic analysis system provides an alternative way to enable sensitive, rapid and specific detection of transgenic protein Cry1Ab.
