Abstract
6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) as the effective anti-cancer drug was used for the treatment of Crohn's disease and acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, but the response to maintenance therapy was variable with individual differences. In order to control the dosage and decrease the side effects of 6-MP, a sensitive and stable assay was urgently needed for 6-MP monitoring. Herein, RuZn NPs with electrochemical oxidation property and oxidase-like activity was proposed for dual-mode 6-MP monitoring. Burr-like RuZn NPs were prepared and explored to not only exhibit an electrochemical oxidation signal at 0.78 V, but also displayed excellent oxidase-like performances. RuZn NPs were utilized for the dual-mode monitoring of 6-MP, attributing to the formation of Ru-SH covalent bonding. The colorimetric method showed good linearity from 10 μM to 5 mM with the limit of detection (LOD) of 300 nM, while the electrochemical method provided a higher sensitivity with the LOD of 37 nM in range from 100 nM to 200 μM. This work provided a new way for the fabrication of dual-functional nanotags with electroactivity and oxidase-like property, and opened a dual-mode approach for the 6-MP detection applications with complementary and satisfactory results.

Abstract
Herein, a Faraday cage-type electrochemiluminescence biosensor was designed for the detection of human breast cancer cell MCF-7. Two kinds of nanomaterials, Fe3O4-APTs and GO@PTCA-APTs, were synthesized as capture unit and signal unit, respectively. In presence of the target MCF-7, the Faraday cage-type electrochemiluminescence biosensor was constructed by forming a complex "capture unit-MCF-7-signal unit". In this case, lots of electrochemiluminescence signal probes were assembled and could participate in the electrode reaction, achieving a significant increase in sensitivity. In addition, the double aptamer recognition strategy was adopted to improve the capture, enrichment efficiency and detection reliability. Under optimal experimental conditions, the limit of detection was 3 cells/mL. And, the sensor could afford the detection of actual human blood samples, which is the first report on the detection of intact circulating tumor cells by the Faraday cage-type electrochemiluminescence biosensor.

Abstract
Using pathogen-infected food that can be unhygienic can result in severe diseases and an increase in mortality rate among humans. This may arise as a serious emergency problem if not appropriately restricted at this point of time. Thus, food science researchers are concerned with precaution, prevention, perception, and immunity to pathogenic bacteria. Expensive, elongated assessment time and the need for skilled personnel are some of the shortcomings of the existing conventional methods. Developing and investigating a rapid, low-cost, handy, miniature, and effective detection technology for pathogens is indispensable. In recent times, there has been a significant scope of interest for microfluidics-based three-electrode potentiostat sensing platforms, which have been extensively used for sustainable food safety exploration because of their progressively high selectivity and sensitivity. Meticulously, scholars have made noteworthy revolutions in signal enrichment tactics, measurable devices, and portable tools, which can be used as an allusion to food safety investigation. Additionally, a device for this purpose must incorporate simplistic working conditions, automation, and miniaturization. In order to meet the critical needs of food safety for on-site detection of pathogens, point-of-care testing (POCT) has to be introduced and integrated with microfluidic technology and electrochemical biosensors. This review critically discusses the recent literature, classification, difficulties, applications, and future directions of microfluidics-based electrochemical sensors for screening and detecting foodborne pathogens.

Abstract
Developing robust and sensitive food safety detection methods is important for human health. Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is a powerful analytical technique for complete separation of input source (electricity) and output signal (light), thereby significantly reducing background ECL signal. ECL biosensors have attracted considerable attention owing to their high sensitivity and wide dynamic range in food safety detection. In this review, we introduce the principles of ECL biosensors and common ECL luminophores, as well as the latest applications of ECL biosensors in food analysis. Further, novel nanomaterial assembly strategies have been progressively incorporated into the design of ECL biosensors, and by demonstrating some representative works, we summarize the development status of ECL biosensors in detection of mycotoxins, heavy metal ions, antibiotics, pesticide residues, foodborne pathogens, and other illegal additives. Finally, the current challenges faced by ECL biosensors are outlined and the future directions for advancing ECL research are presented.

Abstract
Vibrio parahaemolyticus (V. parahaemolyticus) is an important foodborne pathogen known to cause severe enteric disease. Thus, timely detection of V. parahaemolyticus in seafood is crucial to prevent food poisoning and reduce economic losses. Traditional lateral flow immunoassay strips (LFIS) required good labelling materials and pairing of two antibodies, which made them costly and difficult to manufacture. In this study, a label-free and lac dye coloration-based LFIS (LD-LFIS) to detect trh+ V. parahaemolyticus was developed for the first time. Lac dye was used to stain V. parahaemolyticus, and LFIS was used to detect stained bacteria. Dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) and simultaneous mordanting were chosen as the best solvent and the best staining method for lac dye. In addition, three mordants [KAl(SO4 )2 ·12H2 O, NH4 Fe(SO4 )2 ·12H2 O, and AlCl3 ·6H2 O] were selected to improve dyeing efficiency. The detection limit of LD-LFIS was 3.9 × 105 CFU/ml when NH4 Fe(SO4 )2 ·12H2 O was used as mordant. Feasibility of the LD-LFIS method was verified by detecting trh+ V. parahaemolyticus in true and spiked seafood samples. The method developed in this study is expected to reduce restrictions on labelling materials and pairing of two antibodies on LFIS, and proposes a novel idea for the rapid detection of V. parahaemolyticus in seafood.

Abstract
With an exponential rise in antimicrobial resistance and stagnant antibiotic development pipeline, there is, more than ever, a crucial need to optimize current infection therapy approaches. One of the most important stages in this process requires rapid and effective identification of pathogenic bacteria responsible for diseases. Current gold standard techniques of bacterial detection include culture methods, polymerase chain reactions, and immunoassays. However, their use is fraught with downsides with high turnaround time and low accuracy being the most prominent. This imposes great limitations on their eventual application as point-of-care devices. Over time, innovative detection techniques have been proposed and developed to curb these drawbacks. In this review, a systematic summary of a range of biosensing platforms is provided with a strong focus on technologies conferring high detection sensitivity and specificity. A thorough analysis is performed and the benefits and drawbacks of each type of biosensor are highlighted, the factors influencing their potential as point-of-care devices are discussed, and the authors' insights for their translation from proof-of-concept systems into commercial medical devices are provided.

Abstract
Detection sensitivity of an electrochemical immunosensor mainly depends on the accessible distance toward the sensing interface; regulating the electrochemical interfacial region thereon is an effective strategy for signal amplification. Herein, a photothermal-regulated sensing interface was designed based on a near-infrared (NIR)-responsive hydrogel probe for ultrasensitive detection of human epididymis protein 4 (HE4). Silver nanoparticle-deposited graphene oxide nanosheet (AgNPs@GO) hybrids as electrochemical signal tags and a photothermal transducer, which were encapsulated in the poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPAM) hydrogel, were used to develop the NIR-responsive GO@AgNPs-pNIPAM hydrogel probe. Under NIR light irradiation, the excellent photothermal effect of AgNPs@GO hybrids not only rapidly converted NIR light into heat for temperature readout but also triggered the shrinkage behavior of the hydrogel for electrochemical signal amplification. Compared with the conventional sandwich immunoassay, the shrinkage behavior of the hydrogel signal probe endowed itself with interface regulation capability to improve the electrochemical reaction efficiency; on the basis of ensuring the extended outer Helmholtz plane (OHP) region, the proposed photothermal-induced interface regulation also shortened the OHP, leading to higher sensitivity. Moreover, the obtained dual-mode signals provided satisfactory accuracy for the detection of tumor markers. Therefore, this detection scheme provided an opportunity for the broad applications of the photothermal effect in clinical diagnosis.

Trends in sensor development toward next-generation point-of-care testing for mercury. Biosens Bioelectron 2021; 183:113228.

Abstract
Mercury is one of the most common heavy metals and a major environmental pollutant that affects ecosystems. Since mercury and its compounds are toxic to humans, even at low concentrations, it is very important to monitor mercury contamination in water and foods. Although conventional mercury detection methods, including inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, atomic absorption spectroscopy, and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, exhibit excellent sensitivity and accuracy, they require operation by an expert in a sophisticated and fully controlled laboratory environment. To overcome these limitations and realize point-of-care testing, many novel methods for direct sample analysis in the field have recently been developed by improving the speed and simplicity of detection. Commonly, these unconventional sensors rely on colorimetric, fluorescence, or electrochemical mechanisms to transduce signals from mercury. In the case of colorimetric and fluorescent sensors, benchtop methods have gradually evolved through technology convergence to give standalone platforms, such as paper-based assays and lab-on-a-chip systems, and portable measurement devices, such as smartphones. Electrochemical sensors that use screen-printed electrodes with carbon or metal nanomaterials or hybrid materials to improve sensitivity and stability also provide promising detection platforms. This review summarizes the current state of sensor platforms for the on-field detection of mercury with a focus on key features and recent developments. Furthermore, trends for next-generation mercury sensors are suggested based on a paradigm shift to the active integration of cutting-edge technologies, such as drones, systems based on artificial intelligence, machine learning, and three-dimensional printing, and high-quality smartphones.

Abstract
A pair of composite probes based on aptamer modified polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane-perovskite quantum dots (POSS-PQDs-Apt) as signal probe and titanium carbide (Ti3C2) MXenes as quencher were prepared for the first time. They were employed to fabricate one turn-on-type aptasensor relying on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) for Vibrio parahaemolyticus (VP) determination. The POSS-PQDs-Apt can be adsorbed on the MXenes nanosheets, and its fluorescence was quenched due to the FRET. After the composite probes were incubated with VP for 50 min, the POSS-PQDs-Apt binding with VP can be released from the surface of MXenes, and the signal recovered due to its higher affinity to the VP than MXenes. The fluorescence intensity from 519 nm emission of the system was measured at 480 nm excitation. Under In optimized conditions, the assay can determine VP in the concentration range 102 - 106 cfu/mL, and the detection limit (LOD) was 30 cfu/mL using fluorescence detection. The LOD is still 100 cfu/mL by naked eye detection which is proper for on-line monitoring VP in aquaculture water. This method was also used to detect VP in actual samples of seawater, the recovery of spiked samples was between 93% and 106%, and relative standard deviation (RSD) was between 2.7% and 6.7%. The result is consistent with the plate count. Therefore, this assay could provide a candidate platform for screening VP in aquaculture industry.

Abstract
The aquaculture industry has advanced toward sustainable recirculating systems, in where parameters of food quality are strictly monitored. Despite that, as in the case of conventional aquaculture practices, the recirculating systems also suffer threats from Aeromonas spp., Vibrio spp., Streptococcus spp., among other foodborne pathogens infecting farmed fish. The aquaculture pathogens are routinely detected by conventional PCR methods or antibody-based tests, with the detection protocols confined to laboratory use. Emerging assay technologies and biosensors recently reported in the literature open new opportunities to the development of sensitive, specific, and portable analytical devices to use in the field. Techniques of DNA/RNA analysis, immunoassays and other nanomolecular technologies have been facing important advances in response time, sensitivity, and enhanced power of discrimination among and within species. Moreover, the recent developments of electrochemical and optical signal transduction have facilitated the incorporation of the innovative assays to practical miniaturized devices. In this work, it is provided a critical review over foodborne pathogen detection by existing and promising methods and biosensors applied to fish samples and extended to other food matrices. While isothermal DNA/RNA amplification methods can be highlighted among the assay methods for their promising analytical performance and suitability for point-of-care testing, the electrochemical transduction provides a way to achieve cost-effective biosensors amenable to use in the aquaculture field. The adoption of new methods and biosensors would constitute a step forward in securing sustainable aquaculture systems.

Abstract
Electrochemiluminescence immunoassays are usually carried out through "on-electrode" strategy, i.e., sandwich-type immunoassay format, the sensitivity of which is restricted by two key bottlenecks: (1) the number of signal labels is limited and (2) only a part of signal labels could participate in the electrode reaction. In this Perspective, we discuss the development of an "in-electrode" Faraday-cage-type concept-based immunocomplex immobilization strategy. The biggest difference from the traditional sandwich-type one is that the designed "in-electrode" Faraday-cage-type immunoassay uses a conductive two-dimensional (2-D) nanomaterial simultaneously coated with signal labels and a recognition component as the detection unit, which could directly overlap on the electrode surface. In such a case, electrons could flow freely from the electrode to the detection unit, the outer Helmholtz plane (OHP) of the electrode is extended, and thousands of signal labels coated on the 2-D nanomaterial are all electrochemically "effective." Thus, then, the above-mentioned bottlenecks obstructing the improvement of the sensitivity in sandwich-type immunoassay are eliminated, and as a result a much higher sensitivity of the Faraday-cage-type immunoassay can be obtained. And, the applications of the proposed versatile "in-electrode" Faraday-cage-type immunoassay have been explored in the detection of target polypeptide, protein, pathogen, and microRNA, with the detection sensitivity improved tens to hundreds of times. Finally, the outlook and challenges in the field are summarized. The rise of Faraday-cage-type electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (FCT-ECLIA)-based biosensing strategies opens new horizons for a wide range of early clinical identification and diagnostic applications.

Biosens Bioelectron 2019; 143:111627. [PMID: 31476601 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2019.111627] [Citation(s) in RCA: 40] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2019] [Revised: 08/16/2019] [Accepted: 08/21/2019] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
In traditional electrochemiluminescence (ECL) analysis, gold nanomaterials are commonly used as a tool for signal amplification and linking antibodies due to their good electrical conductivity and biocompatibility. Here, we found that multitipped gold nanoparticles-gold nanoflowers (AuNFs) as coreactant accelerator have good catalytic activity for the reduction of dissolved oxygen (O2) to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) using tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane (Tris) as electron donor. Based on this, a new enzyme-free and label-free ECL immunosensor have been constructed for the detection of α-fetoprotein (AFP). In this system, due to the unique geometric and spatial effects of AuNFs, the dissolved O2 as endogenous coreactant was catalyzed by AuNFs to produce H2O2 using Tris as an electron donor. The in situ generated H2O2 can more efficiently produce various electrogenerated reactive oxygen species (ROSs) as the important intermediates on the electrode surface. Then, oxidation of luminol reacts with ROSs significantly amplifies the luminol ECL signal. Under optimal experimental conditions, the proposed ECL immunosensor was able to detect the AFP concentration from 0.01 to 100 ng mL-1, with a low detection limit of 3.4 pg mL-1 (S/N = 3). In addition, the prepared ITO-based sensor is similar to a micro-test chip and convenient to use, thus making it suitable for clinical use as a disposable device in point-of-care tests (POCTs).
