[PMID: 37459789 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.124942] [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: 04/20/2023] [Revised: 06/28/2023] [Accepted: 07/12/2023] [Indexed: 09/20/2023]
Abstract
Molecular docking (MD) analysis is currently the most commonly used theoretical simulation method to investigate the interaction of aptamers (receptors) and small molecules (ligands) and understand the recognition mechanism between them at a molecular level. Using the specific aptamers of tetracycline antibiotics (tetracycline (TET), oxytetracycline (OTC), doxycycline (DOC)) as the docking models, three steady-state aptamers of tertiary structures (SATS) were established for each aptamer with the UNAFold and RNAComposer tools. The binding free energy (BFE), docking score (DS), and binding site (base) of the specific ligands (TET, OTC, and DOC) with their respective SATS were obtained by molecular docking. The results revealed one or more binding sites in the established SATS of the aptamers. The BFE and DS of different binding sites of one specific SATS varied significantly. The results also revealed that the site with the highest BFE represented the most dominant binding site, even if it was not the SATS with minimum energy. The BFE values could also be used to evaluate the affinity and specificity of the aptamer to its target. For the first time, this study proposes a method for MD analysis of the aptamer and its target based on different SATS, clarification of the binding mode, and prediction of the binding sites (bases). This study provides a theoretical basis for tailoring; structural optimization; and base modification of aptamers; identifying aptamers with high affinity and specificity.

Abstract
Tetracycline is a broad-spectrum class of antibiotics. The use of excessive doses of tetracycline antibiotics can result in their residues in food, posing varying degrees of risk to human health. Therefore, the establishment of a rapid and sensitive field detection method for tetracycline residues is of great practical importance to improve the safety of food-derived animal foods. Electrochemical analysis techniques are widely used in the field of pollutant detection because of the simple detection principle, easy operation of the instrument, and low cost of analysis. In this review, we summarize the electrochemical detection of tetracycline antibiotics by bibliometrics. Unlike the previously published reviews, this article reviews and analyzes the development of this topic. The contributions of different countries and different institutions were analyzed. Keyword analysis was used to explain the development of different research directions. The results of the analysis revealed that developments and innovations in materials science can enhance the performance of electrochemical detection of tetracycline antibiotics. Among them, gold nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes are the most used nanomaterials. Aptamer sensing strategies are the most favored methodologies in electrochemical detection of tetracycline antibiotics.

Abstract
Aptasensors have attracted considerable interest and widespread application in point-of-care testing worldwide. One of the biggest challenges of a point-of-care (POC) is the reduction of treatment time compared to central facilities that diagnose and monitor the applications. Over the past decades, biosensors have been introduced that offer more reliable, cost-effective, and accurate detection methods. Aptamer-based biosensors have unprecedented advantages over biosensors that use natural receptors such as antibodies and enzymes. In the current epidemic, point-of-care testing (POCT) is advantageous because it is easy to use, more accessible, faster to detect, and has high accuracy and sensitivity, reducing the burden of testing on healthcare systems. POCT is beneficial for daily epidemic control as well as early detection and treatment. This review provides detailed information on the various design strategies and virus detection methods using aptamer-based sensors. In addition, we discussed the importance of different aptamers and their detection principles. Aptasensors with higher sensitivity, specificity, and flexibility are critically discussed to establish simple, cost-effective, and rapid detection methods. POC-based aptasensors' diagnostic applications are classified and summarised based on infectious and infectious diseases. Finally, the design factors to be considered are outlined to meet the future of rapid POC-based sensors.

Abstract
In the field of lateral flow assay (LFA), the application of aptamer as a bioreceptor has been implemented to overcome the limitations of antibodies, such as tedious in vivo processes, short shelf-life, and functionalization issues. To address these limitations aptamer-based LFA (ALFA) is preferred to antibody-based LFA that produces higher sensitivity and specificity. In principle, aptamers have a strong affinity towards their targets like small, large, and non-immunogenic molecules because of their high affinity, sensitivity, low dissociation constant, cost-effectiveness, and flexible nature. Thus, ALFA can be considered an efficient biosensor model for its superior portability, rapid detection with quick turnaround time, and usability by a non-technical person at any location with simple visual output. This review concisely overviews ALFA, its principles, formats, aptamer selection process, and biomedical applications. In addition, the critical components to design, develop, test, and amplify signals to create ALFA are discussed in brief. In addition, the aspects of conceptualization of ALFA product transforming from bench-side laboratory design and fabrication to commercial market are addressed in detail.

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
Several gold platforms of different morphologies were investigated in the elaboration of a new aptasensor for oxytetracycline. Au-nanostructures were electrochemically synthesized from solutions of different concentrations of HAuCl4 in different media by chronoamperometry, multipulse amperometry, and chronopotentiometry, respectively at carbon-based screen-printed electrodes (C-SPE). The nano-/micro-scale morphologies of the patterned surfaces and elemental composition were examined by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, respectively. The electrochemical properties of the obtained gold nanostructured platforms (AuNSs|C-SPE) were investigated to achieve optimal aptamer coverage. The results showed that the aptasensor developed using the platform with thistle-like AuNSs exhibited the highest conductivity in terms of ferrocene signal and the largest effective area. Under optimal conditions, a linear range from 5.0 × 10-8 M to 1.2 × 10-6 M, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 8.7 × 10-9 M OXT were obtained, which is about 20 times lower than the EU regulations for OXT residues in milk. The electrochemical aptasensor was able to discriminate other antibacterial agents, such as amoxicillin, ampicillin, gentamicin, tetracycline, and vancomycin and was successfully applied in milk samples. This "signal-on" aptasensing approach provides a simple and cost-effective disposable sensor that could be easily applied for the on-site determination of antibiotics.

Abstract
The three-dimensional electrode biological aerated filter (3DE-BAF) has the potential to overcome inherent limitations of conventional electrochemical and biofilm methods. Electrochemical means could enhance the performance and sustainability of biofilm technologies and stimulate the spread of new applications in (waste) water treatment. This paper describes the construction and performance of 3DE-BAF in the treatment of simulated wastewater represented by tetracycline (TC). This is followed by a discussion of electrode performance, the electron transport mechanism and the electrode's effect on the biological community of 3D-EBAF. Given the gap between experimental studies and practical applications, the enlarged anode 3DE-BAF named 3DEAE-BAF reactor was applied with good results to duck farm wastewater. This study could provide guidance as to developing new methods to construct a highly stable 3DE-BAF. The paper concludes that improved 3DE-BAF technology is promising for advanced treatment of livestock wastewater containing antibiotics.

Abstract
Food safety monitoring assays based on synthetic recognition structures such as aptamers are receiving considerable attention due to their remarkable advantages in terms of their ability to bind to a wide range of target analytes, strong binding affinity, facile manufacturing, and cost-effectiveness. Although aptasensors for food monitoring are still in the development stage, the use of an electrochemical detection route, combined with the wide range of materials available as transducers and the proper immobilization strategy of the aptamer at the transducer surface, can lead to powerful analytical tools. In such a context, employing aryldiazonium salts for the surface derivatization of transducer electrodes serves as a simple, versatile and robust strategy to fine-tune the interface properties and to facilitate the convenient anchoring and stability of the aptamer. By summarizing the most important results disclosed in the last years, this article provides a comprehensive review that emphasizes the contribution of aryldiazonium chemistry in developing electrochemical aptasensors for food safety monitoring.

Abstract
The residual tetracyclines in food are frequently applied as the model compounds to develop aptasensors. Until now, more than 100 advanced aptasensors towards tetracyclines have been developed and published in English. This review summarizes and discusses comprehensively these advanced aptasensors, in terms of the principle designs, applied frontier transducers/materials, working performance, and advantages/disadvantages. The aptasensors are classified according to the inherent transduction techniques, i.e., optics, optics-electricity, optics-mass, and electricity-mass. Moreover, the present challenges such as the limited specificity and limited affinity of the aptamers, the future prospects and trends such as further combination with other advanced materials and technologies, and the urgent need of expanding the practical application were discussed and prospected. We hope this review can serve as a powerful tool for both tracing the development progresses of aptasensors and providing adequate references for further development of aptasensing methods for food-related analytes.

Abstract
A biosensor in which an affinity reaction occurs in the sensitive microzone through the use of specific aptamers to determine kanamycin residues in agri-food samples has been developed. It is an irreversible and continuous flow aptameric biosensor (aptasensor) in which the signal variations are monitored by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) measurements based on the specific interaction of the aptamer with the antibiotic. The signal variation is proportional to the analyte concentration. Graphene is known for efficient binding of molecules with its π-electron system, so a monolayer of graphene prepared from chemical vapor deposition (CVD) has been compared to a multilayer of graphene made from reduced graphene oxide (rGO) for immobilization of the aptamer on the gold surface of the physicochemical transducer. The best results have been obtained with CVD graphene. The dynamic range was between 1 and 100 μmol L-1 of kanamycin concentration (r2 = 0.9981, n = 7, r = 4), with a limit of detection of 285 nmol L-1 and a sampling frequency of 6 h-1. The precision, expressed as relative standard deviation (RSD%), was established in the range of 1.49 and 3.89%, calculated for 1, 10, and 50 μmol L-1. The selectivity was studied applying the described method to determine other antibiotics, obtaining no significant difference in the analytical signal. The method was applied to determine kanamycin residues in milk samples with recovery values ranging between 90 and 96%.

Abstract
Colorimetric sensors for the rapid detection of numerous analytes have been widely applied in many fields such as biomedicine, food industry and environmental science due to their highly sensitive and selective response, easy operation and visual identification by naked eyes. In this review, the recent progress of the colorimetric sensors based on the magnetic nanomaterials with unique nanozymes-like catalytic activity (magnetic nanozyme) and their colorimetric sensing applications are presented. Emerging magnetic nanozyme-based colorimetric sensors, such as metal oxide/sulfides-based, metal-based, carbon-based, and aptamer-conjugated magnetic nanomaterials, offer many desirable features for target analytes detection. And due to the unique nanoscale physical-chemical properties, magnetic nanozymes have been used to mimic the catalytic activity of natural enzymes such as peroxidases, oxidases and catalases. This review also highlights the catalytic mechanisms of enzyme-like reactions, and promising colorimetric sensing system for the detection of chemical compounds like H2O2, pesticide, ascorbic acid, dopamine, tetracyclines, perfluorooctane sulfonate, phenolic compounds, heavy metal ion and sulfite have been deeply discussed. In addition, the remaining challenges and future directions in utilizing magnetic nanozyme for colorimetric sensors are addressed.

Abstract
Glycated albumin (GA) is an important glycemic control marker for diabetes mellitus. This study aimed to develop a highly sensitive disposable enzyme sensor strip for GA measurement by using an interdigitated electrode (IDE) as an electrode platform. The superior characteristics of IDE were demonstrated using one microelectrode of the IDE pair as the working electrode (WE) and the other as the counter electrode, and by measuring ferrocyanide/ferricyanide redox couple. The oxidation current was immediately reached at the steady state when the oxidation potential was applied to the WE. Then, an IDE enzyme sensor strip for GA measurement was prepared. The measurement of fructosyl lysine, the protease digestion product of GA, exhibited a high, steady current immediately after potential application, revealing the highly reproducible measurement. The sensitivity (2.8 nA µM−1) and the limit of detection (1.2 µM) obtained with IDE enzyme sensor strip were superior compared with our previously reported sensor using screen printed electrode. Two GA samples, 15 or 30% GA, corresponding to healthy and diabetic levels, respectively, were measured after protease digestion with high resolution. This study demonstrated that the application of an IDE will realize the development of highly sensitive disposable-type amperometric enzyme sensors with high reproducibility.

Abstract
The noninvasive early detection of biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease (AD) is essential for the development of specific treatment strategies. This paper proposes an advanced method for fabricating highly ordered and flexible nanopillar-based electrochemical biosensors by the combination of soft/photolithography and metal evaporation. The nanopillar array (NPA) exhibits high surface area containing 1500 nm height and 500 nm diameter with 3:1 ratio. In regard with physical properties of polyurethane (PU) substrate, the developed NPA is sustainable and durable to external pressure such as bending and twisting. To manipulate the NPA surface to biocompatible, the gold was uniformly deposited on the PU substrate. The thiol chemistry which is stably modified on the gold surface as a form of self-assembled monolayer was employed for fabricating the NPA as a biocompatible chip by covalently immobilize the antibodies. The proposed nanopillar-based immunoelectrochemical biosensor exhibited good and stable electrochemical performance in β-amyloid (Aβ) detection. Moreover, we successfully confirmed the performance of the as-developed sensor using the artificial injection of Aβ in human tear, with sensitivity of 0.14 ng/mL and high reproducibility (as a standard deviation below 10%). Our findings show that the developed nanopillar-based sensor exhibits reliable electrochemical characteristics and prove its potential for application as a biosensor platform for testing at the point of care.

Abstract
Developing photoactive materials with wide spectral response is critical to improve the sensitivity of PEC biosensors. Herein, a sensitive photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptasensor was fabricated based on Bi surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-promoted BiVO4/g-C3N4 (Bi/BiVO4/g-C3N4) as photoactive material for the detection of oxytetracycline (OTC). Ternary Z-scheme Bi/BiVO4/g-C3N4 heterojunction exhibited widest spectral response and best PEC activity compared to g-C3N4, BiVO4, Bi/BiVO4, and BiVO4/g-C3N4. The wide spectral response and high PEC activity could be attributed to three reasons: Firstly, the SPR effect of Bi could greatly increase light harvesting; Secondly, Bi served as an electron conduction bridge between BiVO4 and g-C3N4 to form Z-scheme structure, significantly accelerating the separation of photogenerated carriers; Thirdly, the synergism of Z-scheme heterojunction and the SPR effect of Bi efficiently boosted the photoelectric response. Based on the above sensitization strategies, the proposed PEC aptasensor for OTC determination showed a wide linear range of 0.01-1000 nM and a low detection limit (S/N = 3) of 3.3 × 10-3 nM. Moreover, the high stability, satisfactory repeatability and favorable practicability of the fabricated PEC aptasensor revealed the potential applications for accurate monitoring of antibiotics in environmental media.

Label-Free Capacitive Biosensor for Detection of Cryptosporidium. SENSORS 2019; 19:s19020258.

Abstract
Cryptosporidium, an intestinal protozoan pathogen, is one of the leading causes of diarrhea in healthy adults and death in children. Detection of Cryptosporidium oocysts has become a high priority to prevent potential outbreaks. In this paper, a label-free interdigitated-based capacitive biosensor has been introduced for the detection of Cryptosporidium oocysts in water samples. Specific anti-Cryptosporidium monoclonal antibodies (IgG3) were covalently immobilized onto interdigitated gold electrodes as the capture probes, and bovine serum albumin was used to avoid non-specific adsorption. The immobilization of the antibodies was confirmed by measuring the change in the contact angle. The detection was achieved by measuring the relative change in the capacitive/dielectric properties due to the formation of Cryptosporidium-antibody complex. The biosensor has been tested for different concentrations of Cryptosporidium. The results show that the biosensor developed can accurately distinguish different numbers of captured cells and densities on the surface of the biosensor. The number of Cryptosporidium oocysts captured on the electrode surface was confirmed using a fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) immunofluorescence assay. The response from the developed biosensor has been mainly dependent on the concentration of Cryptosporidium under optimized conditions. The biosensor showed a linear detection range between 15 and 153 cells/mm2 and a detection limit of 40 cells/mm2. The label-free capacitive biosensor developed has a great potential for detecting Cryptosporidium in environmental water samples. Furthermore, under optimized conditions, this label-free biosensor can be extended for detection of other biomarkers for biomedical and environmental analyses.

Abstract
There is a growing need to monitor anthropogenic organic contaminants detected in water sources. DNA aptamers are synthetic single-stranded oligonucleotides, selected to bind to target contaminants with favorable selectivity and sensitivity. These aptamers can be functionalized and are used with a variety of sensing platforms to develop sensors, or aptasensors. In this critical review, we (1) identify the state-of-the-art in DNA aptamer selection, (2) evaluate target and aptamer properties that make for sensitive and selective binding and sensing, (3) determine strengths and weaknesses of alternative sensing platforms, and (4) assess the potential for aptasensors to quantify environmentally relevant concentrations of organic contaminants in water. Among a suite of target and aptamer properties, binding affinity is either directly (e.g., organic carbon partition coefficient) or inversely (e.g., polar surface area) correlated to properties that indicate greater target hydrophobicity results in the strongest binding aptamers, and binding affinity is correlated to aptasensor limits of detection. Electrochemical-based aptasensors show the greatest sensitivity, which is similar to ELISA-based methods. Only a handful of aptasensors can detect organic pollutants at environmentally relevant concentrations, and interference from structurally similar analogs commonly present in natural waters is a yet-to-be overcome challenge. These findings lead to recommendations to improve aptasensor performance.

Abstract
Pharmaceuticals in waterbodies are a growing concern due to their extensive uses and adverse effects on aquatic life. Oxytetracycline (OTC) is one of tetracycline antibiotic group used for treatment of animals and humans. This study evaluates the simultaneous oxidation of OTC and ammonium under autotrophic nitrifying conditions by using a membrane aerated biofilm reactor (MABR) as it provides an appropriate environment for the antibiotic-degrading bacteria. The results showed that MABR achieved fluxes of 1.62 mg OTC/m2.d and 1117 mg N/m2.d while the fluxes of O2 (JOTC-O2) utilized for OTC and NH4-N (JNH4-N-O2) oxidation were calculated to be 2.94 and 5105 mg O2/m2.d, respectively. Three transformation products, 4-Epi-OTC, α-Apo-OTC and β-Apo-OTC, were identified and measured at ppb levels. The biofilm community comprised of Bacteria environmental samples, b-proteobacteria, CFB group bacteria, g-proteobacteria, d-proteobacteria and a-proteobacteria.

Abstract
Antibiotic resistance and, accordingly, their pollution because of uncontrolled usage has emerged as a serious problem in recent years. Hence, there is an increased demand to develop robust, easy, and sensitive methods for rapid evaluation of antibiotics and their residues. Among different analytical methods, the aptamer-based biosensors (aptasensors) have attracted considerable attention because of good selectivity, specificity, and sensitivity. This review gives an overview about recently-developed aptasensors for antibiotic detection. The use of various aptamer assays to determine different groups of antibiotics, like β-lactams, aminoglycosides, anthracyclines, chloramphenicol, (fluoro)quinolones, lincosamide, tetracyclines, and sulfonamides are presented in this paper.

Abstract
A DNA aptamer with affinity and specificity for human osteopontin (OPN), a potential breast cancer biomarker, was selected using the SELEX process, considering its homology rate and the stability of its secondary structures. This aptamer exhibited a satisfactory affinity towards OPN, showing dissociation constants lower than 2.5 nM. It was further used to develop a simple, label-free electrochemical aptasensor against OPN. The aptasensor showed good sensitivity towards OPN in standard solutions, being the square wave voltammetry (SWV), compared to the cyclic voltammetry, the most sensitive technique with detection and quantification limits of 1.4 ± 0.4 nM and 4.2 ± 1.1 nM, respectively. It showed good reproducibility and acceptable selectivity, exhibiting low signal interferences from other proteins, as thrombin, with 2.6-10 times lower current signals-off than for OPN. The aptasensor also successfully detected OPN in spiked synthetic human plasma. Using SWV, detection and quantification limits (1.3 ± 0.1 and 3.9 ± 0.4 nM) within the OPN plasma levels reported for patients with breast cancer (0.4-4.5 nM) or with metastatic or recurrent breast cancer (0.9-8.4 nM) were found. Moreover, preliminary assays, using a sample of human plasma, showed that the aptasensor and the standard ELISA method quantified similar OPN levels (2.2 ± 0.7 and 1.7 ± 0.1 nM, respectively). Thus, our aptasensor coupled with SWV represents a promising alternative for the detection of relevant breast cancer biomarkers.

Abstract
Novel label-free and multiplex aptasensors have been developed for simultaneous detection of several antibiotics based on a microchip electrophoresis (MCE) platform and target catalyzed hairpin assembly (CHA) for signal amplification. Kanamycin (Kana) and oxytetracycline (OTC) were employed as models for testing the system. These aptasensors contained six DNA strands termed as Kana aptamer-catalysis strand (Kana apt-C), Kana inhibit strand (Kana inh), OTC aptamer-catalysis strand (OTC apt-C), OTC inhibit strand (OTC inh), hairpin structures H1 and H2 which were partially complementary. Upon the addition of Kana or OTC, the binding event of aptamer and target triggered the self-assembly between H1 and H2, resulting in the formation of many H1-H2 complexes. They could show strong signals which represented the concentration of Kana or OTC respectively in the MCE system. With the help of the well-designed and high-quality CHA amplification, the assay could yield 300-fold amplified signal comparing that from non-amplified system. Under optimal conditions, this assay exhibited a linear correlation in the ranges from 0.001ngmL-1 to 10ngmL-1, with the detection limits of 0.7pgmL-1 and 0.9pgmL-1 (S/N=3) toward Kana and OTC, respectively. The platform has the following advantages: firstly, the aptamer probes can be fabricated easily without labeling signal tags for MCE detection; Secondly, the targets can just react with probes and produce the amplified signal in one-pot. Finally, the targets can be simultaneously detected within 10min in different channels, thus high-throughput measurement can be achieved. Based on this work, it is estimated that this detection platform will be universally served as a simple, sensitive and portable platform for antibiotic contaminants detection in biological and environmental samples.

Abstract
A label-free electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) aptasensor for rapid detection (<35 min) of interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) was fabricated by immobilizing a RNA aptamer capture probe (ACP), selective to IFN-γ, on a gold interdigitated electrode array (Au IDE). The ACP was modified with a thiol group at the 5' terminal end and subsequently co-immobilized with 1,6-hexanedithiol (HDT) and 6-mercapto-1-hexanolphosphate (MCH) to the gold surface through thiol-gold interactions. This ACP/HDT-MCH ternary surface monolayer facilitates efficient hybridization with IFN-γ and displays high resistance to nonspecific adsorption of nontarget proteins [i.e., fetal bovine serum (FBS) and bovine serum albumin (BSA)]. The Au IDE functionalized with ACP/HDT-MCH was able to measure IFN-γ in actual FBS solution with a linear sensing range from 22.22 pM to 0.11 nM (1-5 ng/mL) and a detection limit of 11.56 pM. The ability to rapidly sense IFN-γ within this sensing range makes the developed electrochemical platform conducive toward in-field disease detection of a variety of diseases including paratuberculosis (i.e., Johne's Disease). Furthermore, experimental results were numerically validated with an equivalent circuit model that elucidated the effects of the sensing process and the influence of the immobilized ternary monolayer on signal output. This is the first time that ternary surface monolayers have been used to selectively capture/detect IFN-γ on Au IDEs.

Abstract
The potential copper binding sites in aptamers have been predicted on the basis of secondary structures and the binding affinity of aptamers with copper. Out of the 4 aptamers (Cu-A1 to Cu-A4) selected by SELEX and examined in the present study, the Cu-A2 aptamer shows the highest binding affinity to copper with the lowest KD value of 1.83 × 10-11 M. In order to confirm the binding of copper to the proposed region, the binding affinity was experimentally validated using mutation and deletion analysis. We have confirmed that the high G-C pairing patterns and short stem-interval distance play important roles in copper binding. Aptamer specificity was also verified against diverse heavy metals. We also demonstrate an Aptamer Integrated Recovery Platform (AIRP) to recover copper from acidic mine drainage. AIRP can be easily regenerated at least 20 times without significant deterioration of the retrieval performance. To the best of our knowledge, AIRP is the first demonstration of copper specific recovery using aptamers. This can be scaled up and would have diverse applications in metal contaminated water treatment, recovery and as a potential biosensor for environmental analysis, monitoring, and risk assessment.

Abstract
A fluorescent sensing platform based on graphene oxide (GO) hydrogel was developed through a fast and facile gelation, immersion and fluorescence determination process, in which the adenosine and aptamer worked as the co-crosslinkers to connect the GO sheets and then form the three-dimensional (3D) macrostructures. The as-prepared hydrogel showed high mechanical strength and thermal stability. The optimal hydrogel had a linear response for oxytetracycline (OTC) of 25-1000μg/L and a limit of quantitation (LOQ) of 25μg/L. Moreover, together with the high affinity of the aptamer for its target, this assay exhibited excellent sensitivity and selectivity. According to its design principle, the as-designed hydrogel was also tested to possess the generic detection function for other molecules by simply replacing its recognition element, which is expected to lay a foundation to realize the assembly of functionalized hierarchical graphene-based materials for practical applications in analytical field.

Abstract
We present a novel reflectance-based colorimetric aptasensor using gold nanoparticles for the detection of oxytetracycline for the first time. It was found that the reflectance-based measurement at two wavelengths (650 and 520 nm) can generate more stable and sensitive signals than absorbance-based sensors to determine the aggregation of AuNPs, even at high AuNP concentrations. One of the most common antibacterial agents, oxytetracycline (OTC), was detected at concentrations as low as 1 nM in both buffer solution and tap water, which was 25-fold more sensitive, compared to the previous absorbance-based colorimetric aptasensors. This reflectance-based colorimetric aptasensor using gold nanoparticles is considered to be a better platform for portable sensing of small molecules using aptamers.

Abstract
We review here the most frequently reported targets among the electrochemical immunosensors and aptasensors: antibiotics, bisphenol A, cocaine, ochratoxin A and estradiol. In each case, the immobilization procedures are described as well as the transduction schemes and the limits of detection. It is shown that limits of detections are generally two to three orders of magnitude lower for immunosensors than for aptasensors, due to the highest affinities of antibodies. No significant progresses have been made to improve these affinities, but transduction schemes were improved instead, which lead to a regular improvement of the limit of detections corresponding to ca. five orders of magnitude over these last 10 years. These progresses depend on the target, however.

Abstract
A novel cathodic "signal-off" strategy was proposed for photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptasensing of oxytetracycline (OTC). The PEC sensor was constructed by employing a p-type semiconductor BiOI doped with graphene (G) as photoactive species and OTC-binding aptamer as a recognition element. The morphological structure and crystalline phases of obtained BiOI-G nanocomposites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The UV-visible absorption spectroscopic analysis indicated that doping of BiOI with graphene improved the absorption of materials in the visible light region. Moreover, graphene could facilitate the electron transfer of BiOI modified electrode. As a result, the cathodic photocurrent response of BiOI under visible light irradiation was significantly promoted when a suitable amount of graphene was doped. When amine-functionalized OTC-binding aptamer was immobilized on the BiOI-G modified electrode, a cathodic PEC aptasensor was fabricated, which exhibited a declined photocurrent response to OTC. Under the optimized conditions, the photocurrent response of aptamer/BiOI-G/FTO was linearly proportional to the concentration of OTC ranging from 4.0 to 150 nM, with a detection limit (3S/N) of 0.9 nM. This novel PEC sensing strategy demonstrated an ultrasensitive method for OTC detection with high selectivity and good stability.

Abstract
This study presents a novel analytical method for the detection of oxytetracycline (OTC) in complex food matrices based on a direct competitive enzyme-linked aptamer assay and magnetic separation technology. In this protocol, free OTC competed with horseradish peroxidase labeled OTC (OTC-HRP) for binding to the OTC aptamer immobilized on magnetic beads. The parameters that can affect the response, such as avidin concentration, aptamer concentration, OTC-HRP concentration, incubation temperature, incubation time, blocking agent, and binding buffer, were optimized. Under the optimal conditions, the linear range for the OTC concentration detection is 0.5-100 ng mL(-1), with a concentration of OTC needed to obtain 50 % of the maximum signal of 14.47 ng mL(-1). The limit of detection and the limit of quantitation were 0.88 and 3.40 ng mL(-1), respectively. There was no obvious cross-reactivity with most of the tetracycline pesticides. The recovery rates ranged from 71.0 to 91.2 % for the food samples, including chicken, milk, and honey, and the relative standard deviation was less than 15.0 %. The proposed method was applied to measure OTC in real samples, and was validated using high-performance liquid chromatography. This method has the advantages of magnetic separation and the concentration effect of magnetic nanoparticles, the specificity of the aptamer, and the high-throughput of microtiter plates; it offers a promising approach for the screening of OTC because it is simple, rapid, highly sensitive, and has low cost.

Abstract
Aptamers are short and functional single-stranded oligonucleotide sequences selected from systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) process, which have the capacity to recognize various classes of target molecules with high affinity and specificity. Various analytical aptamers acquired by SELEX are widely used in many research fields, such as medicine, biology, and chemistry. However, the application of this innovative and emerging technology to food safety is just in infant stage. Food safety plays a very important role in our daily lives because varieties of poisonous and harmful substances in food affect human health. Aptamer technique is promising, which can overcome many disadvantages of existing detection methods in food safety, such as long detection time, low sensitivity, difficult, and expensive antibody preparation. This review provides an overview of various aptamer screening technologies and summarizes the recent applications of aptamers in food safety, and future prospects are also discussed.

Abstract
Accompanied by industrial globalization, rapid urbanization, and population increment, mass production and staple trading for food consumption are upsoaring continuously, foodborne disease resulted from various food safety issues is currently a crucial public health concern worldwide, which has not only created a great burden on both economy and society, but also greatly threatened the sustainability of mankind's livelihood and human reproduction. In order to better ensure food safety and thus effectively curb the occurrence of foodborne diseases, the development and evolving of inspection strategies are indispensable measures for quality assurance and conformity assessment. Nowadays, as complementary measures to and with advantageous merits over classic analytical methods, highly specific and selective aptamer-based assays have found their increasingly important roles in various domains of food analysis. This critical review summarizes the advantages of aptamer as compared with antibody, introduces important evolving variants of systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX), and presents an overview of potential aptamer applications for food safety.

Abstract
A capacitive biosensor based on an interdigitated electrode (IDE) with nanoislands was developed for label-free detection of antigen-antibody interactions. To enable sensitive capacitive detection of protein adsorption, the nanoislands were fabricated between finger electrodes of the IDE. The effect of the nanoislands on the sensitive capacitive measurement was estimated using horseradish peroxidase (HRP) as a model protein. Additionally, a parylene-A film was coated on the IDE with nanoislands to improve the efficiency of protein immobilization. By using HRP and hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) as model analytes, the effect of the parylene-A film on the capacitive detection of protein adsorption was demonstrated.

Abstract
A sensitive and selective label free voltammetric aptasensor based on magnetic beads assay was performed for the first time in our study for monitoring of human activated protein C (APC), which is a serine protease (i.e., key enzyme of the protein C pathway). An amino modified DNA aptamer (DNA APT) was covalently immobilized onto the surface of carboxylated magnetic beads (MBs), and then, the specific interaction between DNA APT and its cognate protein, APC, was performed at the surface of MBs. Similarly a biotinylated DNA APT was immobilized onto the surface of streptavidin coated MBs. Before and after interaction process, the oxidation signal of guanine was measured at disposable pencil graphite electrode (PGE) surface in combination with differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) technique and accordingly, the decrease at the guanine signal was evaluated. The biomolecular recognition of APC was successfully achieved with a low detection limit found as 2.35 µg mL(-1) by using MB-COOH based assay. Moreover, the selectivity of this aptasensor assay was tested in the presence of numerous proteins and other biomolecules: protein C (PC), thrombin (THR), bovine serum albumin (BSA), factor Va (FVa) and chromogenic substrate (KS).
