[PMID: 39002258 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126487] [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: 01/22/2024] [Revised: 04/21/2024] [Accepted: 06/28/2024] [Indexed: 07/15/2024]
Abstract
Early screening for pathogens is crucial during pandemic outbreaks. Nucleic acid testing (NAT) is a valuable method for keeping pathogens from spreading. However, the long detection time and large size of the instruments involved significantly limited the efficiency of detection. This work described an integrated NAT microsensor that facilitated rapid and extremely sensitive detection based on nucleic acid amplification (NAA) on a chip. The biochip consisted of two layers incorporating a heater, a thermometer, an interdigital electrode (IDE) and a reaction chamber. The Pt electrode based heater and thermometer were utilized to maintain a specific temperature for the sample in the chamber. The thermometer exhibited a good linear correlation with a sensitivity of 9.36 Ω/°C and the heater achieved a heating efficiency of approximately 6.5 °C/s. Multiple ions were released during NAA, resulting in a decrease in the impedance of the amplification system solution. A large signal of impedance was generated by the released ions due to its linear correlation with the logarithm of the ion concentration. With this detection principle, IDE was employed for real-time monitoring of the in-chip reaction system impedance and NAA process. Specific nucleic acids from two pathogens (SARS-CoV-2, Vibrio vulnificus) were detected with this microsensor. The samples were qualitatively analyzed on microchip within 3 min, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 103 copies/μL. The proposed sensor presented several advantages, including reduced NAT time and increased sensitivity. Consequently, it has shown significant potential in rapid and high-quality nucleic acid testing for the field of epidemic prevention.

Abstract
Food safety has garnered global attention, necessitating advanced methods for the quick and accurate detection of contaminants. Sensors, notable for their ease of use, high sensitivity, and fast analysis, are prominent. Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials have been employed to improve sensor performance. Particularly, black phosphorus (BP) stands out with its multifunctional capabilities, attributed to unique layered structure, ultra-high charge mobility, easy surface functionalization, enhanced optical absorption, and tunable direct bandgap. These characteristics suggest that BP could significantly enhance sensor selectivity, sensitivity, and response speed for contaminant detection. Despite numerous studies on BP-based sensors in food safety, few reviews have been comprehensively summarized. Moreover, challenges in BP's preparation and stability restrict its wider use. This paper reviews recent research on BP's role in food safety, covering preparation, passivation, and applications. Through analysis of challenges and prospects, this review aims to provide insightful guidance for upcoming research in this area.

Abstract
In this study, a hydrothermal process was utilized to grow mixed-valence CuFe2O4/Cu0 nanosheets on carbon fiber paper, forming a three-dimensional hierarchical electrode (CuFe2O4/Cu0@CFP). The ordered array structure, coupled with the porous bowl-like structure, enhances the exposure of more electrode active sites and facilitates analyte penetration, thus enhancing the electrode sensing performance. As a binder-free sensor, the CuFe2O4/Cu0@CFP sensor exhibited remarkable sensitivity in detecting Malachite Green (MG), Sunset Yellow (SY) and Tartrazine (TA) over wide concentration ranges: 0.1-300 μM for MG (R2 = 0.994), 0.005-200 μM for SY (R2 = 0.996), and 0.005-300 μM for TA (R2 = 0.995) with low detection limits of 0.033 μM for MG, 0.0016 μM for SY, and 0.0016 μM for TA (S/N = 3), respectively. Additionally, the 3D CuFe2O4/Cu0@CFP sensor detected MG, SY, and TA in a mixed solution with satisfactory results. It also performs well in beverage, fruit juice powder, and jelly samples, with results matching those from HPLC.

Abstract
Malachite green (MG) has been banned in aquaculture by many countries due to its high carcinogenicity, high teratogenicity, and easy residue. However, it is cheap and efficient characteristics have made it difficult to eliminate in recent decades, so it is essential to develop a rapid and accurate detection method for MG. Here, a highly Sensitive fluorescent probe based on polyacrylic acid (PAA) functionalized CdSe/CdxZn1-xS quantum dots (QDs) was prepared for the determination of MG. QDs functionalized by PAA (QDs@PAA) were used as energy donors, and MG was used as energy acceptor to construct fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) system. The fluorescence of QDs@PAA could be linearly quenched by MG in the range of 0.05 ⁓ 2 μM, and the detection limit was 0.011 μM. In addition, a small amount of QDs@PAA (30 μL) was printed on the solid substrate by inkjet printing technology to prepare fluorescent test strips. When the concentration of MG was 2 μM, the fluorescent test strips were quenched and the detection process could be completed within 10 s, demonstrating significant potential for rapid visual detection of MG.

Abstract
Our study presents an electrochromic sensor that operates without the need for enzymes or multiple oxidant reagents. This sensor is augmented with machine learning algorithms, enabling the identification, classification, and prediction of six different antioxidants with high accuracy. We utilized polyaniline (PANI), Prussian blue (PB), and copper-Prussian blue analogues (Cu-PBA) at their respective oxidation states as electrochromic materials (ECMs). By designing three readout channels with these materials, we were able to achieve visual detection of antioxidants without relying on traditional "lock and key" specific interactions. Our sensing approach is based on the direct electrochemical reactions between oxidized electrochromic materials (ECMsox) as electron acceptors and various antioxidants, which act as electron donors. This interaction generates unique fingerprint patterns by switching the ECMsox to reduced electrochromic materials (ECMsred), causing their colors to change. Through the application of density functional theory (DFT), we demonstrated the molecular-level basis for the distinct multicolor patterns. Additionally, machine learning algorithms were employed to correlate the optical patterns with RGB data, enabling complex data analysis and the prediction of unknown samples. To demonstrate the practical applications of our design, we successfully used the EC sensor to diagnose antioxidants in serum samples, indicating its potential for the on-site monitoring of antioxidant-related diseases. This advancement holds promise for various applications, including the real-time monitoring of antioxidant levels in biological samples, the early diagnosis of antioxidant-related diseases, and personalized medicine. Furthermore, the success of our electrochromic sensor design highlights the potential for exploring similar strategies in the development of sensors for diverse analytes, showcasing the versatility and adaptability of this approach.

Abstract
Nanobiosensors are devices that utilize a very small probe and any form of electrical, optical, or magnetic technology to detect and analyze a biochemical or biological process. With an increasing population today, nanobiosensors have become the broadly used electroanalytical tools for the timely detection of many infectious (dengue, hepatitis, tuberculosis, leukemia, etc.) and other fatal diseases, such as prostate cancer, breast cancer, etc., at their early stage. Compared to classical or traditional analytical methods, nanobiosensors have significant benefits, including low detection limit, high selectivity and sensitivity, shorter analysis duration, easier portability, biocompatibility, and ease of miniaturization for on-site monitoring. Very similar to biosensors, nanobiosensors can also be classified in numerous ways, either depending on biological molecules, such as enzymes, antibodies, and aptamer, or by working principles, such as optical and electrochemical. Various nanobiosensors, such as cyclic voltametric, amperometric, impedimetric, etc., have been discussed for the timely monitoring of the infectious and fatal diseases at their early stage. Nanobiosensors performance and efficiency can be enhanced by using a variety of engineered nanostructures, which include nanotubes, nanoparticles, nanopores, self-adhesive monolayers, nanowires, and nanocomposites. Here, this mini review recaps the application of two-dimensional (2D) materials, especially graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4), graphene oxide, black phosphorous, and MXenes, for the construction of the nanobiosensors and their application for the diagnosis of various infectious diseases at very early stage.

Abstract
Black phosphorus nanostructures (nano-BPs) mainly include BP nanosheets (BP NSs), BP quantum dots (BPQDs), and other nano-BPs-based particles at nanoscale. Firstly discovered in 2014, nano-BPs are one of the most popular nanomaterials. Different synthesis methods are discussed in short to understand the basic concepts and developments in synthesis. Exfoliated nano-BPs, i.e. nano-BPs possess high surface area, high photothermal conversion efficacy, excellent biocompatibility, high charge carrier mobility (~1000 cm-2V-1s-1), thermal conductivity of 86 Wm-1K-1; and these properties make it a highly potential candidate for fabrication of biosensing platform. These properties enable nano-BPs to be promising photothermal/drug delivery agents as well as in electrochemical data storage devices and sensing devices; and in super capacitors, photodetectors, photovoltaics and solar cells, LEDs, super-conductors, etc. Early diagnosis is very critical in the health sector scenarios. This review attempts to highlight the attempts made towards attaining stable BP, BP-aptamer conjugates for successful biosensing applications. BP-aptamer- based platforms are reviewed to highlight the significance of BP in detecting biological and physiological markers of cardiovascular diseases and cancer; to be useful in disease diagnosis and management.

Abstract
Malachite green (MG) is an organic dye compound that is frequently used as a fungicide and antiseptic in aquaculture. However, human or animal exposure to MG causes carcinogenic, teratogenic and mutagenic effects. Herein, a novel fluorescent assay was designed for the detection of MG using manganese dioxide nanosheets (MnO2 NS) as an energy acceptor to quench the fluorescence of branched poly(ethylenimine) carbon dots (BPEI-CDs) via Förster resonance energy transfer. When butyrylcholinesterase is introduced to form thiocholine in the presence of S-butyrylthiocholine iodide, MnO2 NS can be recovered by thiocholine to Mn2+, resulting in restoration of the fluorescence of BPEI-CDs. Exploiting these changes in fluorescence intensity in the above system, a fluorescence probe was successfully developed for the quantitative detection of MG. Besides, this assay was applied to fish samples, verifying the high potential for practical application of the proposed sensor for the monitoring of MG in aquatic products.

Chen X, Chen K, Du Z, Chu H, Zhu L, He X, Xu W. Fusion of binary split allosteric aptasensor for the ultra-sensitive and super-rapid detection of malachite green. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 425:127976. [PMID: 34883379 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2021.127976] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2021] [Revised: 11/20/2021] [Accepted: 11/30/2021] [Indexed: 05/27/2023]
Abstract
The complicated labeling procedure and high cost of split aptasensors have hitherto limited their application in the detection of hazardous substances. Herein we report the first examples of label-free aptasensors based on the fusion of a binary split G-quadruplex and malachite green (MG) aptamer, transducing recognition events into fluorescent signals through the allosteric regulation of the aptamer to achieve selective and sensitive detection. Specifically, RNA MGA was successfully converted into DNA MGA with comparable affinity and improved stability, thereby overcoming the limitations of poor stability and high expense. We subsequently split the DNA MGA and attached them to a G-rich DNA sequence at the 5' and 3' ends, to construct the binary split allosteric aptasensor. The performance of the binary split aptasensor for MG detection was significantly improved based on proposed allosteric regulation strategy, and the reconfiguration capability of the aptamers upon binding with targets was proven, providing the binary split aptasensor with superior sensitivity and selectivity. This sensing method has a wide dynamic detection range of 5 nmol·L-1 to 500 μmol·L-1, with a low limit of detection (LOD) of 4.17 nmol·L-1, and achieves the ultra-sensitive and super-rapid detection of MG. This newly proposed aptasensor is equipped with the advantages of being label-free, time saving and economical. More importantly, this successful construction of a fused aptasensor expands the principles of split aptasensor design and provides a universal platform for the detection of environmental contaminants.

Abstract
In this paper, a quantitative cathodic photoelectrochemical aptasensor is described by using black phosphorous quantum dots (BPQDs) as photoactive material and assisted by heme as electron acceptor for sensing of amyloid β peptide (Aβ). Specifically, BPQDs were synthesized by solvothermal method and characterized by various techniques. The as-prepared BPQDs were assembled on the transparent indium tin oxide electrode, and the positively charged poly-l-lysine (PLL) was then absorbed onto BPQDs via electronic interaction. Subsequently, the aptamer as the specific recognition element for Aβ oligomer was introduced on the BPQDs-PLL modified electrode. After bound with heme to form Aβ-heme complex, Aβ oligomer was simultaneously captured by the aptamer on the electrode, resulting in an enhanced photocurrent response. Under the optimized conditions, the present PEC sensor reveals a good linear response to Aβ peptide ranging from 1.0 fM to 100 nM with a detection limit of 0.87 fM. The present signal-on cathodic PEC bioassay possesses the potential to create a new paradigm in amplified PEC assays that could provide outstanding performance for bioanalysis.

Abstract
Since the discovery of liquid-phase-exfoliated black phosphorus (BP) as a field-effect transistor in 2014, BP, with its 2D layered structure, has attracted significant attention, owing to its anisotropic electroconductivity, tunable direct bandgap, extraordinary surface activity, moderate switching ratio, high hole mobility, good biocompatibility, and biodegradability. Several pioneering research efforts have explored the application of BP in different types of electrochemical sensors. This review summarizes the latest synthesis methods, protection strategies, and electrochemical sensing applications of BP and its derivatives. The typical synthesis methods for BP-based crystals, nanosheets, and quantum dots are discussed in detail; the degradation of BP under ambient conditions is introduced; and state-of-the-art protection methodologies for enhancing BP stability are explored. Various electrochemical sensing applications, including chemically modified electrodes, electrochemiluminescence sensors, enzyme electrodes, electrochemical aptasensors, electrochemical immunosensors, and ion-selective electrodes are discussed in detail, along with the mechanisms of BP functionalization, sensing strategies, and sensing properties. Finally, the major challenges in this field are outlined and future research avenues for BP-based electrochemical sensors are highlighted.

Abstract
Facile detection of malachite green (MG), a toxic dye, in aquaculture is urgently demanded for environment and food safety. Herein, we design a novel fluorescent probe, namely red emissive Se,N,Cl-doped carbon dots (CDs), to accurately determinate MG. CDs are prepared by hydrothermal treatment of selenourea and o-phenylenediamine in HCl solution. This material exhibits excitation-independent dual emissions at 625 and 679 nm, with a high quantum yield of 23.6%. A selective and sensitive fluorescent sensor toward MG is established based on inner filter effect, because both the excitation and emission light of CDs can be strongly absorbed by MG. The fluorescence quenching of CDs is linear to the MG concentration over the range of 0.07-2.50 μM with a low detection limit of 21 nM. Trace-level analysis of MG in fish tissue is successfully explored, demonstrating the great potential of the proposed sensor for MG monitoring in aquatic products.
