Versatile dual-channel loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay featuring smartphone imaging enables determination of fecal indicator bacteria in environmental waters. Talanta 2023; 265:124890.

Abstract
Rapid diagnostic assays are often a critical tool for monitoring water quality in developing and developed countries. Conventional testing requires 24-48 h for incubation, resulting in delayed remediation and increasing the likelihood of negative outcomes. In this study, we report a workflow for detection of E. coli, a common indicator of fecal contamination. Following large volume filtration, E. coli is then solubilized enabling the facile isolation and recovery of genetic material by a thin film microextraction (TFME) device featuring a polymeric ionic liquid (PIL) sorbent. Rapid recovery of pure nucleic acids is achieved using a PIL sorbent with high affinity for DNA to significantly increase mass transfer and facilitate adsorption and desorption of DNA. Downstream detection is performed by a versatile, dual channel loop mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay featuring a colorimetric dye and a sequence-specific molecular beacon. A portable LAMP companion box enables consistent isothermal heating and endpoint smartphone imaging while being powered by a single 12-V battery. Programmable LEDs are switched from white or blue light to facilitate the independent imaging of the colorimetric dye or fluorometric probe following amplification. The methodology positively identified E. coli in environmental samples spiked to concentrations of 6600 colony forming units (CFU) per milliliter and 660 CFU/mL with 100% and 22% positivity, respectively.

Comparative Evaluation of Different Surface Coatings of Fe3O4-Based Magnetic Nano Sorbent for Applications in the Nucleic Acids Extraction. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23168860. [PMID: 36012139 PMCID: PMC9408759 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23168860] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2022] [Revised: 08/01/2022] [Accepted: 08/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Nucleic acid extraction and purification are crucial steps in sample preparation for multiple diagnostic procedures. Routine methodologies of DNA isolation require benchtop equipment (e.g., centrifuges) and labor-intensive steps. Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) as solid-phase sorbents could simplify this procedure. A wide range of surface coatings employs various molecular interactions between dsDNA and magnetic nano-sorbents. However, a reliable, comparative evaluation of their performance is complex. In this work, selected Fe3O4 modifications, i.e., polyethyleneimine, gold, silica, and graphene derivatives, were comprehensively evaluated for applications in dsDNA extraction. A family of single batch nanoparticles was compared in terms of morphology (STEM), composition (ICP-MS/MS and elemental analysis), surface coating (UV-Vis, TGA, FTIR), and MNP charge (ζ-potential). ICP-MS/MS was also used to unify MNPs concentration allowing a reliable assessment of individual coatings on DNA extraction. Moreover, studies on adsorption medium (monovalent vs. divalent ions) and extraction buffer composition were carried out. As a result, essential relationships between nanoparticle coatings and DNA adsorption efficiencies have been noticed. Fe3O4@PEI MNPs turned out to be the most efficient nano sorbents. The optimized composition of the extraction buffer (medium containing 0.1 mM EDTA) helped avoid problems with Fe3+ stripping, which improved the validity of the spectroscopic determination of DNA recovery.

Abstract
Poly(ionic liquid)s (PILs) are polymers containing ions in their side-chain or backbone, and the designability and outstanding physicochemical properties of PILs have attracted widespread attention from researchers. PILs have specific characteristics, including negligible vapor pressure, high thermal and chemical stability, non-flammability, and self-assembly capabilities. PILs can be well combined with advanced analytical instruments and technology and have made outstanding contributions to the development of biomedicine aiding in the continuous advancement of science and technology. Here we reviewed the advances of PILs in the biomedical field in the past five years with a focus on applications in proteomics, drug delivery, and development. This paper aims to engage pharmaceutical and biomedical scientists to full understand PILs and accelerate the progress from laboratory research to industrialization.

Abstract
Polymerized ionic liquids (PILs) are interesting new materials in sustainable technologies for energy storage and for gas sensor devices, and they provide high ion conductivity as solid polymer electrolytes in batteries. We introduce here the effect of polar protic (aqueous) and polar aprotic (propylene carbonate, PC) electrolytes, with the same concentration of lithium bis(trifluoromethane) sulfonimide (LiTFSI) on hydrophobic PIL films. Cyclic voltammetry, scanning ionic conductance microscopy and square wave voltammetry were performed, revealing that the PIL films had better electroactivity in the aqueous electrolyte and three times higher ion conductivity was obtained from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements. Their energy storage capability was investigated with chronopotentiometric measurements, and it revealed 1.6 times higher specific capacitance in the aqueous electrolyte as well as novel sensor properties regarding the applied solvents. The PIL films were characterized with scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray, FTIR and solid state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Abstract
A simple and large-scale non-chemical preparation of uniform poly(ionic liquid) (PIL) microbeads via a cooling-assisted phase separation (CAPS) method is reported. For this method, PIL bulk is dissolved to form a saturated solution in a mixed solvent composed of good solvent and non-solvent at a relatively high temperature. Then, the uniform PIL microbeads are prepared by cooling the solution to room temperature or a lower temperature in the absence of stabilizer. The size of microbeads can be controlled by adjusting the preparation parameters, including PIL concentration, cooling rate, and agitation state. The scale of preparation can be up to 10 g, and the yield of PIL microbeads is more than 70% or 88% when the solution is cooled to room temperature or 0 °C, respectively. The formation mechanism of PIL microbeads is discussed by tracing the nucleation and growth process by the transmittance of light of the solution during cooling. The application of this CAPS method to other polymer microbeads preparation is finally discussed by choosing different good solvent and non-solvent.

Polymers (Basel) 2020; 12:E2292.

Abstract
Despite the great interest in nanoconfined materials nowadays, nanocompartmentalized poly(ionic liquid)s (PILs) have been rarely investigated so far. Herein, we report on the successful alkylation of poly(1-vinylimidazole) with methyl iodide in bicontinuous nanophasic poly(1-vinylimidazole)-l-poly(tetrahydrofuran) (PVIm-l-PTHF) amphiphilic conetworks (APCNs) to obtain nanoconfined methylated PVImMe-l-PTHF poly(ionic liquid) conetworks (PIL-CNs). A high extent of alkylation (~95%) was achieved via a simple alkylation process with MeI at room temperature. This does not destroy the bicontinuous nanophasic morphology as proved by SAXS and AFM, and PIL-CNs with 15-20 nm d-spacing and poly(3-methyl-1-vinylimidazolium iodide) PIL nanophases with average domain sizes of 8.2-8.4 nm are formed. Unexpectedly, while the swelling capacity of the PIL-CN dramatically increases in aprotic polar solvents, such as DMF, NMP, and DMSO, reaching higher than 1000% superabsorbent swelling degrees, the equilibrium swelling degrees decrease in even highly polar protic (hydrophilic) solvents, like water and methanol. An unprecedented Gaussian-type relationship was found between the ratios of the swelling degrees versus the polarity index, indicating increased swelling for the nanoconfined PVImMe-l-PTHF PIL-CNs in solvents with a polarity index between ~6 and 9.5. In addition to the nanoconfined structural features, the unique selective superabsorbent swelling behavior of the PIL-CNs can also be utilized in various application fields.

Abstract
Gene transfection vector polyethyleneimine (PEI) was used as a cross-linking agent to crosslink the surface epoxidized magnetic nanoparticles and aggregate them to form a small magnetic bead (MB) with multiple nanoscale bumps on its surface (i.e. the multi-bumpy small magnetic bead, mbsMB). As there is a very low content of non-magnetic components (the cross-linking agent) in the magnetic bead, the mbsMB has an ultrahigh magnetic content of 81.95 % and a smaller particle size of 1.4 μm when compared with the usual medical MB. Such a small MB also has a strong magnetic force allowing it to reach the rapid separating ability of the commonly used larger medical MB which has 8 times its volume. The mbsMB has an obvious pH sensitivity of positive and negative surface charges and the salt-free isolation of DNA has been achieved based on the electrostatic interactions between mbsMB and DNA. This avoids the desalting of the isolated DNA as well as the effects of high salt concentration on its long chain helix structure. Whether in an acidic absorbing medium, an alkalinous desorbing one or a near neutral particle-storing one, the mbsMB will have obvious surface electrostatic charges. There is also its good suspension stability in an aqueous medium which provides a good condition for isolating of DNA suitable for efficiently adsorbing and desorbing. The as-prepared MB has a unique surface structure and some excellent properties, all suitable for adsorbing DNA. In addition, a large amount of commonly used gene transfection vector PEI can be cross-linked and bonded on the surface of mbsMB, whilst still having an excellent DNA-loading ability. In summary, the mbsMB has an ultrahigh capacity of 629.49 mg/g for DNA load.

Abstract
Polypyrrole (PPy) based electroactive materials are important building blocks for the development of flexible electronics, bio-sensors and actuator devices. As the properties and behavior of PPy depends strongly on the operating environment-electrolyte, solvent, etc., it is desirable to plant immobile ionic species into PPy films to ensure stable response. A premade ionic polymer is not optimal in many cases, as it enforces its own structure on the conducting polymer, therefore, polymerization during fabrication is preferred. Pyrrole (Py) was electropolymerized at low temperature together with a polymerizable ionic liquid (PIL) monomer in a one-step polymerization, to form a stable film on the working electrode. The structure and morphology of the PPyPIL films were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and solid-state NMR (ssNMR) spectroscopy. The spectroscopy results confirmed the successful polymerization of Py to PPy and PIL monomer to PIL. The presence of (TFSI-) anions that balance the charge in PPyPIL was confirmed by EDX analysis. The electrical properties of PPyPIL in lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)-imide (LiTFSI) aqueous and propylene carbonate solutions were examined with cyclic voltammetry (CV), chronoamperometry, and chronopotentiometry. The blend of PPyPIL had mixed electronic/ionic conductive properties that were strongly influenced by the solvent. In aqueous electrolyte, the electrical conductivity was 30 times lower and the diffusion coefficient 1.5 times higher than in the organic electrolyte. Importantly, the capacity, current density, and charge density were found to stay consistent, independent of the choice of solvent.

Abstract
A new class of magnetic ionic liquids (MILs) with metal-containing cations was applied in in situ dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) for the extraction of long and short double-stranded DNA. For developing the method, MILs comprised of N-substituted imidazole ligands (with butyl-, benzyl-, or octyl-groups as substituents) coordinated to different metal centers (Ni2+, Mn2+, or Co2+) as cations, and chloride anions were investigated. These water-soluble MILs were reacted with the bis[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]imide anion during the extraction to generate a water-immiscible MIL capable of preconcentrating DNA. The feasibility of combining the extraction methodology with anion-exchange high-performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection (HPLC-DAD) or fluorescence spectroscopy was studied. The method with the Ni2+- and Co2+-based MILs was easily combined with fluorescence spectroscopy and provided a faster and more sensitive method than HPLC-DAD for the determination of DNA. In addition, the method was compared to conventional DLLME using analogous water-immiscible MILs. The developed in situ MIL-DLLME method required only 3 min for DNA extraction and yielded 1.1-1.5 times higher extraction efficiency (EFs) than the conventional MIL-DLLME method. The in situ MIL-DLLME method was also compared to the trihexyl(tetradecyl)phosphonium tris(hexafluorocetylaceto)nickelate(II) MIL, which has been used in previous DNA extraction studies. EFs of 42-99% were obtained using the new generation of MILs, whereas EFs of only 20-38% were achieved with the phosphonium MIL. This new class of MILs is simple and inexpensive to prepare. In addition, the MILs present operational advantages such as easier manipulation in comparison to hydrophobic MILs, which can have high viscosities. These MILs are a promising new class of DNA extraction solvents that can be manipulated using an external magnetic field.

Abstract
In this work, aqueous biphasic systems (ABSs) formed by different deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were prepared and applied to extract proteins. The five kinds of DESs comprised amino acids and polyols ([amino acids][polyols]). They were combined with another DES resulting from tetrabutylammonium chloride and polypropylene glycol 400 ([TBAC][PPG400]) to form ABSs. The phase-forming abilities of [TBAC][PPG400]/[amino acids][polyols] were compared with those of [TBAC][PPG400]/amino acids and [TBAC][PPG400]/polyols. The results exhibited that the biphasic formation ability of [amino acids][polyols] lies between those of amino acids and polyols when [TBAC][PPG400] acts as the other phase in ABSs. The systems comprising [TBAC][PPG400] and [l-proline][xylitol] ([Pro][Xyl]) were further investigated to optimize the extraction performance. It was found that 97.30% chymotrypsin tended to distribute into the [Pro][Xyl]-rich phase under optimum conditions. The practical application of the system was demonstrated by the extraction of chymotrypsin from porcine pancreas. Besides, UV-Vis spectrophotometry (UV-Vis), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy proved that the conformation of proteins remained unchanged during the extraction process. The extraction mechanism of the formation of DES-protein aggregates was investigated via conductivity, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The overall results suggest that the DES/DES-based ABSs have outstanding potential in the green extraction of proteins.

Abstract
We describe the use of a hybrid magnetic nanocomposite (HMNC) for the extraction and purification of plasmid DNA (pDNA) from Escherichia coli aqueous solutions. The HMNC, which was synthesized via emulsion polymerization, was characterized by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering and magnetic measurements. The results confirmed the incorporation of polyaniline (Pani) in its conducting form onto a core formed by the magnetic iron oxide, with the hybrid particles presenting an average size of (95 ± 30) nm and a saturation magnetization of 30 emu/g. The yield, purity and quality of the pDNA purified by using the Pani HMNC were evaluated by UV-Vis spectroscopy, agarose gel electrophoresis, and Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), respectively. An average yield of ~6.9 μg was obtained in the DNA extraction process, with the collected material presenting a good purity (a ₳260/280 ratio in the 1.68-1.82 range) and an excellent quality, as confirmed by subsequent PCR assays. Hence, this HMNC appears as a promising material for use in pDNA purification protocols, and we suggest that this novel HMNC-based methodology can be of general interest and find widespread application in different biomedical procedures.

Abstract
Considering that the determination of pyrethroid residues is of value for the safety of food, a new poly(ionic liquid)-functionalized magnetic mesoporous nanoparticle was designed and used as an adsorbent in magnetic solid-phase extraction for the enrichment of eight pyrethroids. The porous structure and large surface area of the mesoporous silica shell endow the adsorbent with abundant binding sites. In contrast to the reported poly(ionic liquids) with only one kind of functional group in the cationic part, the new poly(ionic liquids) with mixed cyano and phenyl groups in cationic part matched the chemical structure of the analytes to improve extraction efficiency. Under the optimum conditions, an effective method was established for the determination of eight pyrethroids in apples. Adsorption equilibrium can be quickly reached in 1 min, greatly decreasing the extraction time. The linearity range was found to be 10-200 ng/g, and the detection limits ranged from 0.24 to 1.99 ng/g. Recoveries of analytes in apple samples ranged from 87.3 to 119.0%, with relative standard deviations varying in the range of 3-21.2% (intraday) and 0.3-15.2% (interday). The results indicate that the proposed method is a good candidate for pyrethroid residues in apple samples.

Improvement on the extraction efficiency of low density lipoprotein in an ionic liquid microemulsion. Talanta 2018; 195:720-727.

Abstract
A novel microemulsion is developed at room temperature with 30 µL of sodium alginate sulfate (SAS, 0.02 mol/L), 0.005 g bis (2-ethylhexyl) succinate sulfonate (AOT) and 270 µL of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (BmimPF6) ionic liquid as aqueous phase, surfactant and IL phase, respectively. The SAS/AOT/BmimPF6 microemulsion significantly improves the extraction efficiency for low density lipoprotein (LDL). 96% LDL in a 300 µL of PBS is selectively extracted into a same volume of microemulsion, with respect to those of 67%, 76% and 85% by BmimPF6, H2O/AOT/BmimPF6 microemulsion and sodium alginate (SA)/AOT/BmimPF6 microemulsion. LDL in the SAS/AOT/BmimPF6 microemulsion is distributed both in BmimPF6 via hydrophobic interaction and in the "pools" of the microemulsion via electrostatic interaction with AOT and specific interaction between LDL with SAS. 83% of LDL in the microemulsion can be readily back extracted into an aqueous phase with 0.8% (m/v) of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as stripping reagent. For practical applications, LDL in human serum is selectively extracted with the microemulsion, as demonstrated by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE).

Abstract
Selective extraction of a small amount of nucleic acids from complex biological samples containing a high concentration of proteins is critical for bioanalytical chemistry. A number of previously published studies have focused on long, double-stranded DNA such as plasmid DNA. On the other hand, we are interested in short oligonucleotides. Nucleic acids have a negatively charged phosphate backbone that interacts with metal oxides strongly, and this may be used to distinguish them from proteins. In this work, a few metal oxide nanoparticles were screened, including NiO, CoO, ZnO, TiO2, CeO2, and Fe3O4 for DNA recovery. NiO had the highest DNA adsorption efficiency from mixtures containing bovine serum albumin or human blood serum. The adsorption of DNA by NiO was further characterized as a function of the pH, salt concentration, DNA length, and DNA sequence. The adsorption mechanism was studied by adding competing chemicals or denaturing agents. A striking observation was the extremely high adsorption affinity of NiO, much higher than that of the other tested oxides. Polyphosphate was the most effective agent for displacing adsorbed DNA, whereas simple inorganic phosphate was less effective. NiO was able to concentrate DNA from a serum mixture by 33- to 55-fold, depending on the serum concentration. NiO is thus a promising candidate for extracting DNA from biological samples.

Abstract
Point-of-care (POC) technologies for the detection of pathogens in clinical samples are highly valued due to their speed, ease of use, and cost-effectiveness. Furthermore, they are ideally suited for resource-limited settings where expensive and sophisticated laboratory equipment may not be readily available. In this study, a rapid method based on solid-phase microextraction (SPME) of mycobacterial DNA with subsequent isothermal amplification and visual detection was developed. Direct coupling of the SPME desorption solution (1 M NaCl) to the isothermal reaction system was achieved to circumvent dilution steps and improve detection limits. Using this method, DNA was preconcentrated from lysed mycobacteria in just 2 min, subjected to isothermal multiple-self-matching-initiated amplification (IMSA), and the amplicons were detected visually. With a total analysis times of less than 2 h, the optimized method was capable of extracting and visually detecting mycobacterial DNA from artificial sputum samples containing clinically relevant concentrations of mycobacteria (107 colony forming units/mL), demonstrating its potential for future POC applications.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) have been proposed as promising media for the extraction and separation of bioactive compounds from the most diverse origins. This critical review offers a compilation on the main results achieved by the use of ionic-liquid-based processes in the extraction and separation/purification of a large range of bioactive compounds (including small organic extractable compounds from biomass, lipids, and other hydrophobic compounds, proteins, amino acids, nucleic acids, and pharmaceuticals). ILs have been studied as solvents, cosolvents, cosurfactants, electrolytes, and adjuvants, as well as used in the creation of IL-supported materials for separation purposes. The IL-based processes hitherto reported, such as IL-based solid-liquid extractions, IL-based liquid-liquid extractions, IL-modified materials, and IL-based crystallization approaches, are here reviewed and compared in terms of extraction and separation performance. The key accomplishments and future challenges to the field are discussed, with particular emphasis on the major lacunas found within the IL community dedicated to separation processes and by suggesting some steps to overcome the current limitations.

Abstract
To extend fossil oil supplies, sustainable feed stocks for the production of useful reagents and polymers should be harnessed. In this regard, chemicals derived from plants are excellent candidates. While the vast majority of plant sources used for polymer science only contain C x H y O z , alkaloids such as caffeine, nicotine, and theophylline possess nitrogen functionality that can provide new functions for bioderived polymers and their synthesis. In this context, the chemistry of theophylline, a natural product found in chocolate and tea, is exploited to create a cationic "poly(theophylline)" in a straightforward fashion for the first time. This work demonstrates how this new polymer can be synthesized and used for the creation of narrowly disperse cationic microspheres.

Abstract
The determination of extremely small quantities of DNA from complex biological sample matrices represents a significant bottleneck in nucleic acid analysis. In this study, polymeric ionic liquid (PIL)-based solid-phase microextraction (SPME) was applied for the extraction and purification of DNA from crude bacterial cell lysate with subsequent quantification by real-time PCR (qPCR) analysis. Using an on-fiber ultraviolet initiated polymerization technique, eight different PIL sorbent coatings were generated and their DNA extraction performance evaluated using qPCR. The PIL sorbent coating featuring halide anions and carboxylic acid groups in the cationic portion exhibited superior DNA extraction capabilities when compared to the other studied PILs and a commercial polyacrylate SPME fiber. Electrostatic interactions as well as an ion-exchange mechanism were identified as the driving forces in DNA extraction by the PIL sorbents. The selectivity of the PIL sorbent coating for DNA was demonstrated in the presence of PCR inhibitors at high concentration, where a quantifiable amount of template DNA was extracted from aqueous samples containing CaCl2 and FeCl3. Furthermore, the PIL-based SPME method was successfully applied for the extraction of DNA from crude bacterial cell lysate spiked with 1 pg mL(-1) template DNA without requiring the use of organic solvents or centrifugation steps. Following PIL-based SPME of DNA from a dilute cell lysate, the qPCR amplification efficiency was determined to be 100.3%, demonstrating the feasibility of the developed method to extract high purity DNA from complex sample matrices.

Matrix solid-phase dispersion coupled with magnetic ionic liquid dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction for the determination of triazine herbicides in oilseeds. Anal Chim Acta 2015; 888:67-74.

Abstract
A novel method was developed for the determination of six triazine herbicides from oilseeds by matrix solid-phase dispersion combined with magnetic ionic liquid dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (MSPD-MIL-DLLME), followed by ultrafast liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (UFLC-UV). The MIL, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrachloroferrate ([C4mim][FeCl4]), was used as the microextraction solvent to simplify the extraction procedure by magnetic separation. The effects of several important experimental parameters, including type of dispersant, ratio of sample to dispersant, type and volume of collected elution solvent, type and volume of MIL, were investigated. Using the present method, UFLC-UV gave the limits of detection (LODs) of 1.20-2.72 ng g(-1) and the limits of quantification (LOQs) of 3.99-9.06 ng g(-1) for triazine herbicides. The recoveries were ranged from 82.9 to 113.7% and the relative standard deviations (RSDs) were equal or lower than 7.7%. The present method is easy-to-use and effective for extraction of triazine herbicides from oilseeds and shows the potentials of practical applications in the treatment of the fatty solid samples.
