Abstract
Organic-silica hybrid monoliths attracted attention as an alternative to extensively researched organic polymer-based and silica-based counterparts. The development and applications of these materials as extraction and separation media in capillary liquid chromatography and capillary electrochromatography were previously reviewed in several manuscripts. In this review, we will concentrate on work published since mid-2016 focusing on advances in their development using sol-gel chemistry of tetra- and trialkoxysilanes and subsequent surface modification with organic monomers, and "one-pot" strategy incorporating sol-gel chemistry of alkoxysilanes and free-radical polymerization, ring-opening polymerization, or thiol-based click polymerization with organic monomers. Approaches adapted to the preparation of hybrid monoliths made with polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes will be covered as well.

Abstract
Aptamers are single-stranded nucleic acids that bind and recognize targets much like antibodies. Recently, aptamers have garnered increased interest due to their unique properties, including inexpensive production, simple chemical modification, and long-term stability. At the same time, aptamers possess similar binding affinity and specificity as their protein counterpart. In this review, we discuss the aptamer discovery process as well as aptamer applications to biosensors and separations. In the discovery section, we describe the major steps of the library selection process for aptamers, called systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX). We highlight common approaches and emerging strategies in SELEX, from starting library selection to aptamer-target binding characterization. In the applications section, we first evaluate recently developed aptamer biosensors for SARS-CoV-2 virus detection, including electrochemical aptamer-based sensors and lateral flow assays. Then we discuss aptamer-based separations for partitioning different molecules or cell types, especially for purifying T cell subsets for therapeutic applications. Overall, aptamers are promising biomolecular tools and the aptamer field is primed for expansion in biosensing and cell separation.

Bioinspired polydopamine-mediated metal-organic framework click-grafting aptamers functionalized fabric for highly-specific recognition of microcystin-leucine arginine. J Chromatogr A 2023; 1688:463728. [PMID: 36566571 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2022.463728] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2022] [Revised: 12/07/2022] [Accepted: 12/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
Fabricating functional electrospun nanofiber coating for highly selective extraction of microcystin-LR (MC-LR) was of significant importance for water-safety monitoring. Herein, a novel MOF@aptamer functionalized nanofabric was presented via a facile and reliable strategy integrating polydopamine (PDA) mediation and thiol-ene chemistry and applied for specific recognition of the MC-LR model analyte. Using polydopamine (PDA) as the mediating layer, vinyl-UiO-66 MOF was grown in situ, followed by post-synthetic modification (PSM) of Zr4+ with vinyl phosphate and rapid UV-initiated click reaction of aptamers. Uniform deposition of Zr-based MOF (vinyl-UiO-66) on the nanofibers was directly produced, and the tedious co-electrospinning process was abandoned to prevent the aggregation and encapsulation of MOF. Via an efficient "thiol-ene" chemistry, massive thiol-terminated aptamers were grafted on MOF within one step under friendly conditions, rather than the time-consuming nanoparticle adsorption or unfriendly covalent chemical reactions. As a result, the robust MOF@aptamer-coated nano-fabrics were obtained, and a highly selective performance towards MC-LR was illustrated with a limit of detection (LOD) at 0.002 ng/mL, good precision (CV<8.3%), good repeatability (2.2∼6.0%) when coupled with LC-MS. Almost 1∼2 orders of magnitude higher detection sensitivity was exhibited than that of the common non-specific SPE/SPME fiber reported so far. Applied to water samples, the good matrix-resistance ability, and acceptable recovery yields were achieved with high specificity. This strategy might provide a rapid and friendly protocol to efficiently fabricate MOF@aptamer functionalized nano-fabrics through electrospinning and interfacial "thiol-ene" chemistry for highly-selective microextraction.

Abstract
Affinity monolith chromatography (AMC) is a liquid chromatographic technique that utilizes a monolithic support with a biological ligand or related binding agent to isolate, enrich, or detect a target analyte in a complex matrix. The target-specific interaction exhibited by the binding agents makes AMC attractive for the separation or detection of a wide range of compounds. This article will review the basic principles of AMC and recent developments in this field. The supports used in AMC will be discussed, including organic, inorganic, hybrid, carbohydrate, and cryogel monoliths. Schemes for attaching binding agents to these monoliths will be examined as well, such as covalent immobilization, biospecific adsorption, entrapment, molecular imprinting, and coordination methods. An overview will then be given of binding agents that have recently been used in AMC, along with their applications. These applications will include bioaffinity chromatography, immunoaffinity chromatography, immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography, and dye-ligand or biomimetic affinity chromatography. The use of AMC in chiral separations and biointeraction studies will also be discussed.
