A dual-signal optical sensing platform of CDs-MnO 2 NS composites for facile detection of ascorbic acid based on a combination of Tyndall effect scattering and fluorescence. RSC Adv 2024; 14:17491-17497. [PMID: 38818364 PMCID: PMC11137496 DOI: 10.1039/d4ra02340d] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2024] [Accepted: 05/16/2024] [Indexed: 06/01/2024] Open
Abstract
A dual-signal optical sensing platform was successfully developed for the determination of ascorbic acid (AA) based on blue fluorescent carbon dots (CDs) and manganese dioxide nanosheets (MnO2 NSs) with strong Tyndall effect (TE) scattering and fluorescence quenching capabilities. In this nanosystem, CDs-MnO2 NS composites were employed as probes to evaluate the AA concentration. Owing to the strong reduction, the presence of the target AA could reduce the MnO2 NSs to Mn2+ and induce the degradation of the MnO2 NSs, resulting in a significant decrease in the TE scattering intensity of the MnO2 NSs and the fluorescence recovery of the CDs. Therefore, a novel optical sensor based on TE scattering and fluorescence dual detectors was developed for the sensitive determination of AA. Under optimized conditions, the limits of detection (LODs) of the two modes were 113 and 3 nM, respectively. Furthermore, the dual-signal optical sensing platform was successfully applied for the detection of AA in human serum.

Abstract
A dual-mode sensing platform for Pb2+ was constructed based on the dual optical channels of Au NPs system with the amplification of DNAzyme, and it was successfully applied for Pb2+ determination in preserved egg with satisfactory results. The presence of Pb2+ activated the DNAzyme and induced the dispersion change of Au NPs in high salt concentration. The sequent absorption change of Au NPs was translated to the fluorescence change of carbon dots through FRET, and the scattering change was transferred to grey value of images involving the Tyndall effect. Thus, a sensing platform based on fluorescence and colorimetric dual-technique was achieved for Pb2+ detection, under the optimized conditions. With the assistance of DNAzyme, the linear range of fluorometric and colorimetric method were 2.0 × 10-14 ∼ 8.0 × 10-10 mol/L and 2.4 × 10-13 ∼ 9.5 × 10-9 mol/L, respectively. The dual-mode sensing platform demonstrated its promising application in the environmental monitoring and food safety field.

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

Abstract
A dual-mode pH sensor based on nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) with the source of o-phenylenediamine and tryptophan has been constructed. Under the stimulation of pH, the N-CDs exhibited prominent both color and fluorescence changes, leading to the rarely discovered colorimetric and fluorescent dual-readouts for the evaluation of pH. The mathematic relationship was established between pH and fluorescence intensity of N-CDs, and between pH and the UV-Vis absorbance ratio at 630 nm and 488 nm of N-CDs, respectively, over a quite broad pH range of 2.2 to 12.0. Multiple techniques are used to explore the dual-mode pH-responsive mechanism, and the preliminary explanation is put forward. The experimental results show that the N-CDs have visualized pH sensing applicability for actual samples, including various water samples and HeLa cell. Furthermore, the N-CD ink is developed for successful information encryption and anti-counterfeiting. This work might provide valuable insights into the sensing mechanism of CDs, and the application potential of CDs in broader fields.

Abstract
Development of high-performance fluorescence sensors for pesticide is highly urgent but remains a grand challenge. It is due to that most of known fluorescence sensors detect pesticides based on enzyme-inhibited strategy, which requires high-price cholinesterase, suffers from serious interference of reductive materials, and can't difference pesticides with each other; the known aptamer-based fluorescence ones entail tool enzymes or nanomaterials to transducer/amplify the signal and demand signalers to be tagged in nucleic acid, which are expensive and intricate. Herein, we develop a novel aptamer-based fluorescence system for label-free, enzyme-free and highly sensitive detection of pesticide (profenofos) based on target-initiated hybridization chain reaction (HCR)-assisted signal amplification and specific intercalation of N-methylmesoporphyrin IX (NMM) in G-quadruplex DNA. Hairpin probe ON1 recognizes profenofos to generate profenofos@ON1 complex, which switches the HCR to yield multiple G-quadruplex DNA, consequently making large numbers of NMM be locked. In comparison with profenofos absence, a sharply improved fluorescence signal was recorded and it was dependent on profenofos dose. Hence, label-free, enzyme-free and highly sensitive detection of profenofos is achieved with limit of detection of 0.085 nM, which compared favorably with or superior to those of known fluorescence methods. Furthermore, the present method was applied to determine the profenofos residue in rice with agreeable result, and will provide more valuable information for guaranteeing the pesticide-related food safety.

Abstract
Glypican-3 (GPC3), a heparin sulfate proteoglycan, is a potential diagnostic and therapeutic target for hepatocellular carcinoma. In this paper, a novel fluorescent aptasensor for GPC3 detection is constructed via glutathione@graphene quantum dots-labeled GPC3 aptamer (GSH@GQDs-GPC3Apt) as a fluorescence probe. First, GSH@GQDs is screened out with higher fluorescence intensity, which emits bright blue fluorescence under ultraviolet light. Then, the fluorescence-labeled GSH@GQDs-GPC3Apt probe is formed by the combination of amination GPC3Apt and GSH@GQDs using EDC/NHS coupled reaction. Under hydrogen bond and π-π interaction/stacking, the fluorescence of GSH@GQDs-GPC3Apt could be quenched by reductive graphene oxide (RGO) with the help of the photoinduced electron transfer and the fluorescence resonance energy transfer mechanism. In the presence of GPC3, the GSH@GQDs-GPC3Apt specifically recognizes and binds to GPC3, giving rise to the change of secondary structure of GPC3Apt to form the GPC3/GPC3Apt-GSH@GQDs complex, which would lead to the disintegration of the GSH@GQDs-GPC3Apt-RGO compound. Therefore, the energy transfer process is blocked and the fluorescence intensity is restored, enabling a highly sensitive response to GPC3. When the concentration of GPC3 is from 5.0 ng/mL to 150.0 ng/mL, the fluorescence recovery rate is well linearly related to GPC3 concentration with the limit of detection of 2.395 ng/mL (S/N = 3). This strategy shows recoveries from 98.31% to 101.89% in human serum samples and provides simple, fast and cheap analysis of GPC3, which suggests that it has great potential applications in clinical diagnosis for hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract
Serious threat from pesticide residues to the ecosystem and human health has become a global concern. Developing reliable methods for monitoring pesticides is a world-wide research hotspot. Carbon dots (CDs) with excellent photostability, low toxicity, and good biocompatibility have been regarded as the potential substitutes in fabricating various optical sensors for pesticide detection. Based on the relevant high-quality publications, this paper first summarizes the current state-of-the-art of the synthetic and modification approaches of CDs. Then, a comprehensive overview is given on the recent advances of CDs-based optical sensors for pesticides over the past five years, with a particular focus on photoluminescent, electrochemiluminescent and colorimetric sensors regarding the sensing mechanisms and design principles by integrating with various recognition elements including antibodies, aptamers, enzymes, molecularly imprinted polymers, and some nanoparticles. Novel functions and extended applications of CDs as signal indicators, catalyst, co-reactants, and electrode surface modifiers, in constructing optical sensors are specially highlighted. Beyond an assessment of the performances of the real-world application of these proposed optical sensors, the existing inadequacies and current challenges, as well as future perspectives for pesticide monitoring are discussed in detail. It is hoped to provide powerful insights for the development of novel CDs-based sensing strategies with their wide application in different fields for pesticide supervision.

Abstract
Practical detection of single-component pesticide residue at ultra-low concentrations in agricultural products and environment is very important for assessment of environmental risks and protection of human health. Herein, a practical and highly sensitive chemiluminescence (CL) sensing acetamiprid in agricultural products and environmental media was constructed based on the synergistic co-catalysis of graphene oxide (GO)/gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) nanocomposites for luminol CL reaction and the smart interface engineering. ss-DNA could inhibit co-catalysis of GO/AuNPs for luminol CL reaction. Once acetamiprid was added, aptamer conformation changed in dimension and synergistically catalytic amplification signal of GO/AuNPs was restored significantly. The limit of detection was 8.9 pM. High sensitivity could be due to strong signal amplification from synergistic catalysis of GO/AuNPs for CL reaction and perfect regulation of composite interface by DNA dimension. Moreover, the used GO/AuNPs could be stably stored for six months, which was superior to previously reported AuNPs (only half a month). The analysis exhibited excellent selectivity for acetamiprid. The detection results for real samples confirmed reliability in practical application. This analysis is an extremely useful method for monitoring pesticide residues in environment and agricultural products. Synergetic co-catalysis of GO/AuNPs and ingenious interface engineering provide important ideas for other biosensors.

Abstract
The aromatic amino acid tyrosine is an essential precursor for the synthesis of catecholamines, including l-DOPA, tyramine, and dopamine. A number of metabolic disorders have been linked to abnormal tyrosine levels in biological fluids. In this study, we developed an enzyme cascade-triggered colorimetric reaction for the detection of tyrosine, based on the formation of yellow pigment (betalamic acid) and red fluorometric betaxanthin. Tyrosinase converts tyrosine to l-DOPA, and DOPA-dioxygenase catalyzes oxidative cleavage of l-DOPA into betalamic acid. Response is linear for tyrosine from 5 to 100 μM, and the detection limit (LOD) is 2.74 μM. The enzyme cascade reaction was applied to monitor tyrosinase activity and tyrosinase inhibition assays. Lastly, the performance of the proposed biosensor proved successful in the analysis of urine samples without the need for pre-treatment.

Mikrochim Acta 2020; 187:375. [PMID: 32518969 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-020-04357-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2019] [Accepted: 05/25/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
A convenient fluorometric method was developed for specific determination of DNA based on peptide nuclei acid (PNA)-regulated fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between carbon dots (CDs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). In this system, CDs that display lake blue fluorescence with excitation/emission maxima at 345/445 nm were used as fluorometric reporter, while AuNPs were used as fluorescence nanoquencher. A neutral PNA probe, which is designed to recognize the target DNA, was used as a coagulant to control the dispersion and aggregation of AuNPs. Without DNA, PNA can induce immediate AuNP aggregation, thus leading to the recovery of the FRET-quenched fluorescence emission of CDs. However, the addition of the complementary target DNA can protect AuNPs from being aggregated due to the formation of DNA/PNA complexes, which subsequently produces a high fluorescence quenching efficiency of CDs by dispersed AuNPs. Under optimized conditions, quantitative evaluation of DNA was achieved in a linear range of 5-100 nM with a detection limit of 0.21 nM. This method exhibited an excellent specificity towards fully matched DNA. In addition, the application of this assay for sensitive determination of DNA in cell lysate demonstrates its potential for bioanalysis and biodetection. Graphical abstract A simple fluorometric biosensor for specific detection of DNA was developed based on peptide nuclei acid (PNA)-regulated fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between carbon dots (CDs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs).
