Optical Interferometric Device for Rapid and Specific Detection of Biological Cells. BIOSENSORS 2024; 14:421. [PMID: 39329796 PMCID: PMC11430435 DOI: 10.3390/bios14090421] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2024] [Revised: 08/14/2024] [Accepted: 08/24/2024] [Indexed: 09/28/2024]
Abstract
Here, we report a rapid and accurate optical method for detecting cells from liquid samples in a label-free manner. The working principle of the method is based on the interference of parts of a conical laser beam, coming from a single-mode optical fiber directly, and reflected from a flat glass surface. The glass is functionalized by antibodies against the cells to be detected from the liquid sample. Cells bound to that surface modify the reflected beam, and hence, change the resulting interference pattern, too. By registering and interpreting the variation in the image, the presence of cells from the sample can be detected. As for a demonstration, cell suspensions from a U937 cell line were used in glass chambers functionalized by antibodies (TMG6-5 (mIgG1)) to which the cells specifically bind. The limit of detection (LOD) of the method was also estimated. This proof-of-concept setup offers a cost-effective and easy-to-use way of rapid and specific detection of any type of cells (including pathogens) from suspensions (e.g., body fluids). The possible portability of the device predicts its applicability as a rapid test in clinical diagnostics.

A new insight into the early detection of HER2 protein in breast cancer patients with a focus on electrochemical biosensors approaches: A review. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 272:132710. [PMID: 38825266 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.132710] [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: 03/29/2024] [Revised: 05/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/27/2024] [Indexed: 06/04/2024]
Abstract
Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death in women and is a prevalent kind of cancerous growth, representing a substantial risk to women's health. Early detection of breast cancer is essential for effective treatment and improved survival rates. Biomarkers, active substances that signal the existence and advancement of a tumor, play a significant role in the early detection of breast cancer. Hence, accurate identification of biomarkers for tumors is crucial for diagnosing and treating breast cancer. However, the primary diagnostic methods used for the detection of breast cancer require specific equipment, skilled professionals, and specialized analysis, leading to elevated detection expenses. Regarding this obstacle, recent studies emphasize electrochemical biosensors as more advanced and sensitive detection tools compared to traditional methods. Electrochemical biosensors are employed to identify biomarkers that act as unique indicators for the onset, recurrence, and monitoring of therapeutic interventions for breast cancer. This study aims to provide a summary of the electrochemical biosensors that have been employed for the detection of breast cancer at an early stage over the past decade. Initially, the text provides concise information about breast cancer and tumor biomarkers. Subsequently, an in-depth analysis is conducted to systematically review the progress of electrochemical biosensors developed for the stable, specific, and sensitive identification of biomarkers associated with breast cancer. Particular emphasis was given to crucial clinical biomarkers, specifically the human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2). The analysis then explores the limitations and challenges inherent in the design of effective biosensors for diagnosing and treating breast cancer. Ultimately, we provided an overview of future research directions and concluded by outlining the advantages of electrochemical biosensor approaches.

Abstract
Impedimetric biosensors represent a powerful and promising tool for studying and monitoring biological processes associated with proteins and can contribute to the development of new approaches in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. The basic principles, analytical methods, and applications of hybrid impedimetric biosensors for express protein detection in biological fluids are described.

Abstract
Fiber-optic biosensors have garnered significant attention and witnessed rapid development in recent years owing to their remarkable attributes such as high sensitivity, immunity to electromagnetic interference, and real-time monitoring. They have emerged as a potential tool in the realm of biomarker detection for low-concentration and small molecules. In this paper, a portable and cost-effective optical fiber biosensor based on surface plasmon resonance for the early detection of breast cancer is demonstrated. By utilizing the aptamer human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) as a specific biomarker for breast cancer, the presence of the HER2 protein can be detected through an antigen-antibody binding technique. The detection method was accomplished by modifying a layer of HER2 aptamer on the flat surface of a gold-coated D-shaped polymer optical fiber (core/cladding diameter 120/490 μm), of which the residual thickness after side-polishing was about 245 μm, the thickness of the coated gold layer was 50 nm, and the initial wavelength in pure water was around 1200 nm. For low-concentration detection of the HER2 protein, the device exhibited a wavelength shift of ~1.37 nm with a concentration of 1 μg/mL (e.g., 5.5 nM), which corresponded to a limit of detection of ~5.28 nM. Notably, the response time of the biosensor was measured to be as fast as 5 s. The proposed biosensor exhibits the potential for early detection of HER2 protein in initial cancer serum and offers a pathway to early prevention of breast cancer.

Abstract
Breast cancer is a generalized global problem. Biomarkers are the active substances that have been considered as the signature of the existence and evolution of cancer. Early screening of different biomarkers associated with breast cancer can help doctors to design a treatment plan. However, each screening technique for breast cancer has some limitations. In most cases, a single technique can detect a single biomarker at a specific time. In this study, we address different types of biomarkers associated with breast cancer. This review article presents a detailed picture of different techniques and each technique’s associated mechanism, sensitivity, limit of detection, and linear range for breast cancer detection at early stages. The limitations of existing approaches require researchers to modify and develop new methods to identify cancer biomarkers at early stages.

Abstract
Whole blood, as one of the most significant biological fluids, provides critical information for health management and disease monitoring. Over the past 10 years, advances in nanotechnology, microfluidics, and biomarker research have spurred the development of powerful miniaturized diagnostic systems for whole blood testing toward the goal of disease monitoring and treatment. Among the techniques employed for whole-blood diagnostics, electrochemical biosensors, as known to be rapid, sensitive, capable of miniaturization, reagentless and washing free, become a class of emerging technology to achieve the target detection specifically and directly in complex media, e.g., whole blood or even in the living body. Here we are aiming to provide a comprehensive review to summarize advances over the past decade in the development of electrochemical sensors for whole blood analysis. Further, we address the remaining challenges and opportunities to integrate electrochemical sensing platforms.

Abstract
It is essential to develop ultrasensitive biosensors for cancer detection and treatment monitoring. In the development of sensing platforms, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have received considerable attention as potential porous crystalline nanostructures. Core-shell MOF nanoparticles (NPs) have shown different diversities, complexities, and biological functionalities, as well as significant electrochemical (EC) properties and potential bio-affinity to aptamers. As a result, the developed core-shell MOF-based aptasensors serve as highly sensitive platforms for sensing cancer biomarkers with an extremely low limit of detection (LOD). This paper aimed to provide an overview of different strategies for improving selectivity, sensitivity, and signal strength of MOF nanostructures. Then, aptamers and aptamers-modified core-shell MOFs were reviewed to address their functionalization and application in biosensing platforms. Additionally, the application of core-shell MOF-assisted EC aptasensors for detection of several tumor antigens such as prostate-specific antigen (PSA), carbohydrate antigen 15-3 (CA15-3), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2), cancer antigen 125 (CA-125), cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA21-1), and other tumor markers were discussed. In conclusion, the present article reviews the advancement of potential biosensing platforms toward the detection of specific cancer biomarkers through the development of core-shell MOFs-based EC aptasensors.

[PMID: 36979567 PMCID: PMC10046363 DOI: 10.3390/bios13030355] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2023] [Revised: 03/02/2023] [Accepted: 03/03/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023]
Abstract
In this work, two human epidermal growth factor receptors, HER-1 and HER-2, were selected as biomarkers to enable the detection of breast cancer. Therefore, two biosensors were developed using gold sensor chips coupled with amperometric detection of the enzyme label horse radish peroxidase (HRP). The biosensors/immunosensors relied on indirect sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays with monoclonal antibodies (Ab) against HER-1 and HER-2 attached to the sensors to capture the biomarkers. Detection polyclonal antibodies followed by secondary anti-rabbit (for HER-1) and anti-goat (for HER-2) IgG antibody-HRP were then applied for signal generation. In buffer, the developed sensors showed limits of detections (LOD) of 1.06 ng mL-1 and 0.95 ng mL-1 and limits of quantification (LOQ) of 2.1 ng mL-1 and 1.5 ng mL-1 for HER-1 and HER-2, respectively. In 100% (undiluted) serum, LODs of 1.2 ng mL-1 and 1.47 ng mL-1 and LOQs of 1.5 ng mL-1 and 2.1 ng mL-1 were obtained for HER-1 and HER-2, respectively. Such limits of detections are within the serum clinical range for the two biomarkers. Furthermore, gold nanoparticles (AuNP) labelled with secondary anti-rabbit and anti-goat IgG antibody-HRP were then used to enhance the assay signal and increase the sensitivity. In buffers, LODs of 30 pg mL-1 were seen for both sensors and LOQs of 98 pg mL-1 and 35 pg mL-1 were recorded for HER-1 and HER-2, respectively. For HER-2 the AuNPs biosensor was also tested in 100% serum obtaining a LOD of 50 pg mL-1 and a LOQ of 80 pg mL-1. The HER-2 AuNP electrochemical immunosensor showed high specificity with very low cross-reactivity to HER-1. These findings demonstrate that the two developed sensors can enable early detection as well as monitoring of disease progression with a beneficial impact on patient survival and clinical outcomes.

Abstract
A sandwiched photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensor was developed for sensitive detection of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) based on BiVO4-Bi2S3 heterojunction as the photoelectric material accompanied with magnetic nanoparticles for enrichment of HER2 and CdS for signal amplification. The in situ generation of Bi2S3 on the surface of BiVO4 forming a BiVO4-Bi2S3 heterojunction is more conducive to the transit of electron-hole pairs. Antibody-modified MNs are utilized to capture and separate HER2 from samples. After forming a sandwich immune structure, under illumination, the photocurrent shows an increasing trend with the increment of HER2 concentration. The PEC immunosensor displays a good linear concentration range between 1.00 and 1.00 × 103 pg·mL-1 and a low limit of detection down to 0.680 pg·mL-1 (S/N = 3) for HER2 under a bias voltage of 0.1 V (vs. Ag/AgCl electrode). Furthermore, the sensor was successfully applied to detect HER2 in serum samples with recoveries that ranged between 96.1 and 114% with RSDs between 1.3 and 5.9%.

Abstract
Herein, we report on a smart biosensing platform that exploits gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) functionalized through ssDNA self-assembled monolayers (SAM) and the DNA-directed immobilization (DDI) of DNA-protein conjugates; a novel, high-sensitivity optical characterization technique based on a miniaturized gel electrophoresis chip integrated with online thermal lens spectrometry (MGEC-TLS), for the high-sensitivity detection of antigen binding events. Specifically, we characterized the physicochemical properties of 20 nm AuNPs covered with mixed SAMs of thiolated single-stranded DNA and bio-repellent molecules, referred to as top-terminated oligo-ethylene glycol (TOEG6), demonstrating high colloidal stability, optimal binder surface density, and proper hybridization capacity. Further, to explore the design in the frame of cancer-associated antigen detection, complementary ssDNA fragments conjugated with a nanobody, called C8, were loaded on the particles and employed to detect the presence of the HER2-ECD antigen in liquid. At variance with conventional surface plasmon resonance detection, MGEC-TLS characterization confirmed the capability of the assay to titrate the HER2-ECD antigen down to concentrations of 440 ng/mL. The high versatility of the directed protein-DNA conjugates immobilization through DNA hybridization on plasmonic scaffolds and coupled with the high sensitivity of the MGEC-TLS detection qualifies the proposed assay as a potential, easily operated biosensing strategy for the fast and label-free detection of disease-relevant antigens.

Breast cancer is categorized as the most widespread cancer type among women globally. On-time diagnosis can decrease the mortality rate by making the right decision in the therapy procedure. These features lead to a reduction in medication time and socioeconomic burden. The current review article provides a comprehensive assessment for breast cancer diagnosis using nanomaterials and related technologies. Growing use of the nano/biotechnology domain in terms of electrochemical nanobiosensor designing was discussed in detail. In this regard, recent advances in nanomaterial applied for amplified biosensing methodologies were assessed for breast cancer diagnosis by focusing on the advantages and disadvantages of these approaches. We also monitored designing methods, advantages, and the necessity of suitable (nano) materials from a statistical standpoint. The main objective of this review is to classify the applicable biosensors based on breast cancer biomarkers. With numerous nano-sized platforms published for breast cancer diagnosis, this review tried to collect the most suitable methodologies for detecting biomarkers and certain breast cancer cell types.

Nanotechnology-based approaches for effective detection of tumor markers: A comprehensive state-of-the-art review. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 195:356-383.

Abstract
As well-appreciated biomarkers, tumor markers have been spotlighted as reliable tools for predicting the behavior of different tumors and helping clinicians ascertain the type of molecular mechanism of tumorigenesis. The sensitivity and specificity of these markers have made them an object of even broader interest for sensitive detection and staging of various cancers. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), fluorescence-based, mass-based, and electrochemical-based detections are current techniques for sensing tumor markers. Although some of these techniques provide good selectivity, certain obstacles, including a low sample concentration or difficulty carrying out the measurement, limit their application. With the advent of nanotechnology, many studies have been carried out to synthesize and employ nanomaterials (NMs) in sensing techniques to determine these tumor markers at low concentrations. The fabrication, sensitivity, design, and multiplexing of sensing techniques have been uplifted due to the attractive features of NMs. Various NMs, such as magnetic and metal nanoparticles, up-conversion NPs, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), carbon-based NMs, quantum dots (QDs), and graphene-based nanosensors, hyperbranched polymers, optical nanosensors, piezoelectric biosensors, paper-based biosensors, microfluidic-based lab-on-chip sensors, and hybrid NMs have proven effective in detecting tumor markers with great sensitivity and selectivity. This review summarizes various categories of NMs for detecting these valuable markers, such as prostate-specific antigen (PSA), human carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2), cancer antigen 125 (CA125), cancer antigen 15-3 (CA15-3, MUC1), and cancer antigen 19-9 (CA19-9), and highlights recent nanotechnology-based advancements in detection of these prognostic biomarkers.

Abstract
The use of traditional tools for the targeted delivery of nanostructures, such as antibodies, transferrin, lectins, or aptamers, often leads to an entire range of undesirable effects. The large size of antibodies often does not allow one to reach the required number of molecules on the surface of nanostructures during modification, and the constant domains of heavy chains, due to their effector functions, can induce phagocytosis. In the recent two decades, targeted polypeptide scaffold molecules of a non-immunoglobulin nature, antibody mimetics, have emerged as much more effective targeting tools. They are small in size (3-20 kDa), possess high affinity (from subnano- to femtomolar binding constants), low immunogenicity, and exceptional thermodynamic stability. These molecules can be effectively produced in bacterial cells, and, using genetic engineering manipulations, it is possible to create multispecific fusion proteins for the targeting of nanoparticles to cells with a given molecular portrait, which makes scaffold polypeptides an optimal tool for theranostics.

Abstract
Biopolymer films have drawn growing demand for their application in the point of care domain owing to their biocompatibility, eco-friendly, and eligibility for in vivo analyses. However, their poor conductivity restricts their sensitivity in diagnostics. For high-quality electrochemical biosensor monitoring, two vital factors to be greatly paid attention are the effective merge of amplification modifiers with transducing surface and the superior linking across the recognition interface. Here, we introduce an enzyme-free electrochemical biosensor based on electrosynthesized biocompatible WO3/poly glutamic acid nano-biocomposites to address the hardships specific to the analysis of circulating proteins clinical samples. In addition to its green synthesis route, the poor tendency of both components of the prepared nano-biocomposite to amine groups makes it excellent working in untreated biological samples with high contents of proteins. Several electrochemical and morphological investigations (SEM, EDX, and dot mapping) were fulfilled to gain a reliable and trustful standpoint of the framework. By using this nanobiosensor, the concentration of HER-2 was detectable as low as 1 fg mL-1 with a wide linear response between 1 ng mL-1 and 1 fg mL-1. Meanwhile, the protocol depicted ideal specificity, stability, and reproducibility for the detection of HER-2 protein in untreated serum samples of breast cancer patients.

Abstract
Abstract
We report a new theranostic device based on lead sulfide quantum dots (PbS QDs) with optical emission in the near infrared wavelength range decorated with affibodies (small 6.5 kDa protein-based antibody replacements) specific to the cancer biomarker human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), and zinc(II) protoporphyrin IX (ZnPP) to combine imaging, targeting and therapy within one nanostructure. Colloidal PbS QDs were synthesized in aqueous solution with a nanocrystal diameter of ∼5 nm and photoluminescence emission in the near infrared wavelength range. The ZHER2:432 affibody, mutated through the introduction of two cysteine residues at the C-terminus (Afb2C), was used as capping ligand to form Afb2C-PbS QDs that have a high binding affinity for HER2, which is overexpressed in several types of cancer including breast cancer. Afb2C-PbS QDs were further modified by conjugation with ZnPP, which acts as an anticancer agent. The biological activity of these QDs was tested against SKBR3 (HER2-positive) and MDA-MB-231 (HER2-normal) breast cancer cells, with results showing that ZnPP-Afb2C-functionalized PbS QDs were successfully targeted to the HER2-overexpressing cancer cells and induced cell apoptosis thanks to the conjugation with ZnPP. These results expand the use of the QD nanoplatform with the formulation of novel nanomaterials for targeted delivery and combined imaging and therapy via direct surface-protein interaction.

Abstract
The electrochemical biosensors are a class of biosensors which convert biological information such as analyte concentration that is a biological recognition element (biochemical receptor) into current or voltage. Electrochemical biosensors depict propitious diagnostic technology which can detect biomarkers in body fluids such as sweat, blood, feces, or urine. Combinations of suitable immobilization techniques with effective transducers give rise to an efficient biosensor. They have been employed in the food industry, medical sciences, defense, studying plant biology, etc. While sensing complex structures and entities, a large data is obtained, and it becomes difficult to manually interpret all the data. Machine learning helps in interpreting large sensing data. In the case of biosensors, the presence of impurity affects the performance of the sensor and machine learning helps in removing signals obtained from the contaminants to obtain a high sensitivity. In this review, we discuss different types of biosensors along with their applications and the benefits of machine learning. This is followed by a discussion on the challenges, missing gaps in the knowledge, and solutions in the field of electrochemical biosensors. This review aims to serve as a valuable resource for scientists and engineers entering the interdisciplinary field of electrochemical biosensors. Furthermore, this review provides insight into the type of electrochemical biosensors, their applications, the importance of machine learning (ML) in biosensing, and challenges and future outlook.

Abstract
Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is one of the key molecular targets in breast cancer pathogenesis. Overexpression and/or amplification of HER2 in approximately 15-20% of breast cancer patients is associated with high mortality and poor prognosis. Accumulating evidence shows that accurate and sensitive detection of HER2 improves the survival outcomes for HER2-positive breast cancer patients from targeted therapies. The current methods of clinical determination of HER2 expression levels are based on slide-based assays that rely on invasively collected primary tumours. Alternatively, ELISA-based detection of the shredded HER2 extracellular domain (HER2-ECD) of has been suggested as a surrogate method for monitoring disease progress and treatment response in breast cancer patients. In the past decade, biosensors have emerged as an alternative modality for the detection of circulating HER2-ECD in human serum samples. In particular, electrochemical biosensors based on nanomaterials and antibodies and aptamers have been increasingly developed as promising tools for rapid, sensitive, and cost-effective detection of HER2-ECD. These biosensors harness the high affinity and specificity of antibodies and aptamers, and unique conductive properties, biocompatibility, large surface area, and chemical stability of nanomaterials for selective and sensitive assessment of the HER2. This review provides an overview of the recent advances in the application of nanomaterials-based immunosensors and aptasensors for detection of circulating HER2-ECD. In particular, various electrochemical techniques, detection approaches, and nanomaterials are discussed. Further, analytical figures of merit of various HER2 immunosensors and aptasensors are compared. Finally, possible challenges and potential opportunities for biosensor-based detection of HER2-ECD are discussed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Accurate determination of the aberrantly expressed biomarkers such as human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), mucin 1 (MUC1), and vascular endothelial growth factor VEGF165 have played an essential role in the clinical management of the breast cancer. Assessment of these cancer-specific biomarkers has conventionally relied on time-taking methods like the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunohistochemistry. However, recent development in the aptamer-based diagnostics has allowed developing tools that may substitute the conventional means of biomarker assessment in breast cancer. Adopting the aptamer-based diagnostic tools (aptasensors) to clinical practices will depend on their analytical performance on clinical samples. AREAS COVERED In this review, we provide an overview of the analytical merits of HER2, CEA, PDGF, MUC1, and VEGF165 aptasensors. Scopus and Pubmed databases were searched for studies reporting aptasensor development for the listed breast cancer biomarkers in the past one decade. Linearity, detection limit, and response time are emphasized. EXPERT OPINION In our opinion, aptasensors have proven to be on a par with the antibody-based methods for detection of various breast cancer biomarkers. Though robust validation of the aptasensors on significant sample size is required, their ability to detect pathophysiological range of biomarkers suggest the possibility of future clinical adoption.

Rauf S, Lahcen AA, Aljedaibi A, Beduk T, Ilton de Oliveira Filho J, Salama KN. Gold nanostructured laser-scribed graphene: A new electrochemical biosensing platform for potential point-of-care testing of disease biomarkers. Biosens Bioelectron 2021; 180:113116. [PMID: 33662847 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2021.113116] [Citation(s) in RCA: 60] [Impact Index Per Article: 20.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2020] [Revised: 02/04/2021] [Accepted: 02/22/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Improvements in the laser-scribed graphene (LSG)-based electrodes are critical to overcoming limitations of bare LSG electrodes in terms of sensitivity, direct immobilization of detection probes for biosensor fabrication, and ease of integration with point-of-care (POC) devices. Herein, we introduce a new class of nanostructured gold modified LSG (LSG-AuNS) electrochemical sensing system comprising LSG-AuNS working electrode, LSG reference, and LSG counter electrode. LSG-AuNS electrodes are realized by electrodeposition of gold chloride (HAuCl4) solution, which gave~2-fold enhancement in sensitivity and electrocatalytic activity compared to bare LSG electrode and commercially available screen-printed gold electrode (SPAuE). We demonstrate LSG-AuNS electrochemical aptasensor for detecting human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her-2) with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.008 ng/mL and a linear range of 0.1-200 ng/mL. LSG-AuNS-aptasensor can easily detect different concentrations of Her-2 spiked in undiluted human serum. Finally, to show the LSG-AuNS sensor system's potential to develop POC biosensor devices, we integrated LSG-AuNS electrodes with a handheld electrochemical system operated using a custom-developed mobile application.

Abstract
Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is a widely implementable technique that can be applied to many fields, ranging from disease detection to environmental monitoring. EIS as a biosensing tool allows detection of a broad range of target analytes in point-of-care (POC) and continuous applications. The technique is highly suitable for multimarker detection due to its ability to produce specific frequency responses depending on the target analyte and molecular recognition element (MRE) combination. EIS biosensor development has shown promising results for the medical industry in terms of diagnosis and prognosis for various biomarkers. EIS sensors offer a cost-efficient system and rapid detection times using minimal amounts of sample volumes, while simultaneously not disturbing the sample being studied due to low amplitude perturbations. These properties make the technique highly sensitive and specific. This paper presents a review of EIS biosensing advancements and introduces different detection techniques and MREs. Additionally, EIS's underlying theory and potential surface modification techniques are presented to further demonstrate the technique's ability to produce stable, specific, and sensitive biosensors.

Abstract
With the rise in public health awareness, research on point-of-care testing (POCT) has significantly advanced. Electrochemical biosensors (ECBs) are one of the most promising candidates for the future of POCT due to their quick and accurate response, ease of operation, and cost effectiveness. This review focuses on the use of metal nanoparticles (MNPs) for fabricating ECBs that has a potential to be used for POCT. The field has expanded remarkably from its initial enzymatic and immunosensor-based setups. This review provides a concise categorization of the ECBs to allow for a better understanding of the development process. The influence of structural aspects of MNPs in biocompatibility and effective sensor design has been explored. The advances in MNP-based ECBs for the detection of some of the most prominent cancer biomarkers (carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), cancer antigen 125 (CA125), Herceptin-2 (HER2), etc.) and small biomolecules (glucose, dopamine, hydrogen peroxide, etc.) have been discussed in detail. Additionally, the novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) ECBs have been briefly discussed. Beyond that, the limitations and challenges that ECBs face in clinical applications are examined and possible pathways for overcoming these limitations are discussed.

Aptasensor based on screen-printed electrode for breast cancer detection in undiluted human serum. Bioelectrochemistry 2020; 137:107586.

Abstract
Breast cancer remains one of the leading causes of women death. The development of more sensitive diagnostic tests, which could present a faster response, lower cost, and could promote early diagnosis would increase the chances of survival. This study reports the development and optimization of an electrochemical aptasensor for the detection of HER2 protein, a breast cancer biomarker. Two sensing platforms were developed on gold screen-printed electrodes. The first platform is composed of self-assembled monolayer (SAM) made from mixture of thiolated DNA aptamers specific for HER2 and 1-mercapto-6-hexanol (MCH), while the second one is a ternary SAM composed of the same aptamer and 1,6-hexanethiol (HDT). Both platforms were further passivated with MCH and blocked with bovine serum albumin. The biosensors were characterized using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy to detect the target protein from 1 pg/mL to 1 μg/mL in phosphate buffered saline, diluted and undiluted human serum through charge transfer resistance value. The ternary SAM architecture shows a reduction of non-specific attachment to the electrode surface due to the HDT antifouling properties. In addition, this platform exhibits 172 pg/mL as limit of detection and a sensitivity of 4.12% per decade for undiluted serum compared with SAM architecture with the 179 pg/mL and 4.32% per decade, respectively. Electrochemical aptasensors are highly promising for medical diagnostic and ternary layers could improve the limit of detection.

Abstract
Cobalt-nitrilotriacetic acid (Co(III)-NTA) chemistry is a recognized approach for oriented patterning of His6-tagged bioreceptors. We have applied the matching strategy for the first time on a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) platform, namely, the commercialized fiber optic (FO)-SPR. To accomplish this, His6-tagged bioreceptor (scFv-33H1F7) and its target PAI-1 were used as a model system, after scrutinizing the specificity of their interaction. When benchmarked to traditional carboxyl-based self-assembled monolayers (SAM), NTA allowed (1) more efficient FO-SPR surface coverage with bioreceptors compared with the former and (2) realization of thus far difficult-to-attain label-free bioassays on the FO-SPR platform in both buffer and 20-fold diluted human plasma. Moreover, Co(III)-NTA surface proved to be compatible with traditional gold nanoparticle-mediated signal amplification in the buffer as well as in 10-fold diluted human plasma, thus expanding the dynamic detection range to low ng/mL. Both types of bioassays revealed that scFv-33H1F7 immobilized on the FO-SPR surface using different concentrations (20, 10, or 5 μg/mL) had no impact on the bioassay sensitivity, accuracy, or reproducibility despite the lowest concentration effectively resulting in close to 20% fewer bioreceptors. Collectively, these results highlight the importance of Co(III)-NTA promoting the oriented patterning of bioreceptors on the FO-SPR sensor surface for securing robust and sensitive bioassays in complex matrices, both in label-free and labeled formats.

Abstract
Many studies have demonstrated that the extracellular domain of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2 ECD) level in serum can act as a breast cancer biomarker and serve as a monitoring neoadjuvant therapy of breast cancer. In this study, we developed a sensitive ascorbic acid (AA)-mediated AuNBPs (gold nanobipyramids) growth method with NADH (reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide I) assistance, and we further fabricated a high-resolution multicolor immunosensor for sensitive visual detection of HER2 ECD in serum by using AuNBPs as signal and antibody as recognition probe. The NADH-assisted AA-mediated method effectively suppressed color formation in the blank and greatly improved the sensitivity of mediating AuNBPs growth, allowing us to use a low concentration of AA to mediate AuNBPs growth to generate more colorful and clearer color changes. The proposed multicolor immunosensor has higher resolution and more color changes corresponding to HER2 ECD concentrations. It can be used to detect as low as 0.5 ng/mL of HER2 ECD by bare eye observation and 0.05 ng/mL of HER2 ECD by UV-visible spectrophotometry. Using the immunosensor, we have successfully detected HER2 ECD in human serum with a recovery of 94%-96% and an RSD (n = 5) < 5%. The results obtained with our immunosensor were consistent with those obtained with ELISA, verifying the immunosensor has good accuracy. The immunosensor exhibited a vivid multicolor change, has low visual detection limit, excellent specificity and reproducibility, and robust resistance to matrix. All the above features makes our immunosensor a promising assay for the early diagnosis of HER2-dependent breast cancers in clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensor for sensitive detection of breast cancer biomarker human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) utilizing hexagonal carbon nitride tubes (HCNT) as photoactive material is reported. The detection is based on suppression of the PEC current intensity of the sensor. HCNT were synthesized via a facile hydrothermal method with large specific surface area and low electron-hole recombination. Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) were deposited onto the surface of the HCNT, which enhanced the photocurrent intensity of the HCNT by one time. For HER2 detection, peptide specific to HER2 was immobilized on the AuNPs surface for capturing HER2 molecules. The following binding of HER2 with HER2 aptamer and the reaction of phosphate groups on aptamer with molybdate can form molybdophosphate precipitate, which sticks to the surface of HCNT and impedes electron transport. Thus, photocurrent intensity of the sensor was suppressed. Under optimal conditions, the linear relationship between the PEC intensity and the logarithm of HER2 concentration was from 0.5 to 1 ng mL-1 with low limit of detection (LOD) of 0.08 pg mL-1. Furthermore, the PEC sensor also displayed capability for detecting HER2 in human serum samples. This PEC sensor signal detection strategy can be easily adapted to other PEC sensors involving DNA and find wide applications. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
Circulating cancer markers are metabolic products found in body fluids of cancer patients, which are specific for a certain type of malignant tumors. Cancer marker detection plays a key role in cancer diagnosis, treatment, and disease monitoring. The growing need for early cancer diagnosis requires quick and sensitive analytical approaches to detection of cancer markers. The approach based on the photonic crystal surface mode (PC SM) detection has been developed as a label-free high-precision biosensing technique. It allows real-time monitoring of molecular and cellular interactions using independent recording of the total internal reflection angle and the excitation angle of the PC surface wave. We used the PC SM technique for simultaneous detection of the ovarian cancer marker cancer antigen 125 and two breast cancer markers, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 and cancer antigen 15-3. The new assay is based on the real-time flow detection of specific interaction between the antigens and capture antibodies. Its particular advantage is the possibility of multichannel recording with the same chip, which can be used for multiplexed detection of several cancer markers in a single experiment. The developed approach demonstrates high specificity and sensitivity for detection of all three biomarkers.

Abstract
In cancer diagnostics, specific analysis of blood-circulating proteins biomarkers of cancer is often complicated both by their inherently low concentrations and by strong interference from serum/blood proteins. Here, we report a simple and robust electrochemical cellulase-linked sandwich assay on magnetic beads (MBs) for fM-sensitive analysis of the Human Epidermal growth factor Receptor-2 HER-2/neu protein that is over-expressed in most aggressive breast cancers. In the assay, a sandwich is assembled by capturing HER-2/neu on either antibody (Ab) or aptamer-modified MBs accompanied by reaction with the second Ab or aptamer labelled with cellulase. On application of the sandwiches assembled on MBs onto a cost-effective graphite electrode modified with an insulating nitrocellulose film, the cellulase label digests the film. This results in the pronounced changes in the electrical properties of the modified electrodes. The chronocoulometrically-measured extent of the produced changes was proportional to the 10-15-10-10 M HER-2/neu in the analyzed samples, and down to 1 fM of HER-2/neu could be detected in human serum samples in an overall less than 3 h assay. The developed simple and electrochemically label-free methodology is general and can be easily adapted for testing of any other protein.

Abstract
Breast Cancer is one of the world's most notorious diseases affecting two million women in 2018 worldwide. It is a highly heterogeneous disease, making it difficult to treat. However, its linear progression makes it a candidate for early screening programs, and the earlier its detection the higher the chance of recovery. However, one key hurdle for breast cancer screening is the fact that most screening techniques are expensive, time-consuming, and cumbersome, making them impractical for use in several parts of the world. One current trend in breast cancer detection has pointed to a possible solution, the use of salivary breast cancer biomarkers. Saliva is an attractive medium for diagnosis because it is readily available in large quantities, easy to obtain at low cost, and contains all the biomarkers present in blood, albeit in lower quantities. Affinity sensors are devices that detect molecules through their interactions with biological recognition molecules. Their low cost, high sensitivity, and selectivity, as well as rapid detection time make them an attractive alternative to traditional means of detection. In this review article, we discuss the current status of breast cancer diagnosis, its salivary biomarkers, as well as the current trends in the development of affinity sensors for their detection.

Abstract
The authors report a sensitive electrochemical aptamer-based assay for the cancer biomarker human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2). It is based on the use of MnO2 nanosheets that were functionalized with phosphate and a HER2 binding aptamer and serve as the electrochemical probe. The assay follows a sandwich protocol. A peptide that can specifically recognize HER2 was immobilized on a gold electrode for the capture of HER2. Then, the functionalized MnO2 nanosheets were linked to the electrode via the binding between HER2 and HER2 aptamer on the MnO2 nanosheets. The reaction of phosphate and aptamer on the MnO2 nanosheets with molybdate leads to the formation of redox-active molybdophosphate. This results in dual signal amplification. The generated electrochemical current was measured at 0.22 V (vs. Ag/AgCl). The assay allows HER2 to be determined in the 0.1 to 500 pg·mL-1 concentration range, and the detection limit is as low as 0.05 pg·mL-1. The assay was successfully applied for the detection of HER2 in spiked human serum samples. Graphical abstract Electrochemical detection of breast cancer biomarker human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) is reported utilizing phosphate ions and aptamer functionalized MnO2 nanosheet as probe.

Abstract
We report here a new bimetallic ZrHf metal-organic framework (ZrHf-MOF) embedded with abundant carbon dots (CDs) (denoted as CDs@ZrHf-MOF), which exhibits strong fluorescence and rich-amino-functionalization. The CDs@ZrHf-MOF can be applied as the scaffold for anchoring aptamer strands to determine human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) and living HER2-overexpressed MCF-7 cells. The basic characterizations reveal that the CDs are embedded within the interior cavities of ZrHf-MOF without varying the nanostructure, leading to good biocompatibility, strong fluorescence, and high electrochemical activity of CDs@ZrHf-MOF. As compared with the pristine ZrHf-MOF, the CDs@ZrHf-MOF-based electrochemical aptasensor displays better sensing performances toward both HER-2 and MCF-7 cells, giving an extremely low detection limit of 19 fg mL-1 (HER2 concentration range: 0.001-10 ng mL-1) and 23 cell mL-1 (cell concentration range: 1 × 102~1 × 105 cell mL-1), with good selectivity, stability, reproducibility, and acceptable applicability. The proposed strategy for developing CDs@ZrHf-MOF-based aptasensor is promising for the early and sensitive detection of cancer markers and living cancer cells.

Abstract
Conventional techniques for food and water quality control and environmental monitoring in general have a number of drawbacks. Below we propose a label-free highly accurate analytical technique for multiplex detection of biomarkers based on the analysis of propagation of Bloch waves on the surface of a photonic crystal. The technique can be used to measure molecular and cell affinity interactions in real time by recording critical and excitation angles of the surface wave on the surface of a photonic crystal. Based on the analysis of photonic crystal surface modes, we elaborated a protocol for the detection of the exotoxin A of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the heat-labile toxin LT of Escherichia coli. The protocol exploits detection of affinity interactions between antigens pumped through a microfluidic cell and detector antibodies conjugated to the chemically activated silica chip. The proposed technique is highly sensitive, cheap and less time-consuming in comparison with surface plasmon resonance.

Abstract
Herein we report a novel polydopamine-silver nanoparticle-polydopamine-gold (PDA-AgNPs-PDA-Au) film based surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor for horse IgG detection. The PDA-AgNPs-PDA-Au film sensing platform was built on Au-film via layer-by-layer self-assembly. Ag ion was reduced in situ to AgNPs in presence of PDA. The top PDA layer can prevent AgNPs from being oxidized and connect with antibody via Schiff alkali reaction directly. The morphology and thickness of the modified gold film were characterized using scanning electron microscope and Talystep. Experimental results show that the PDA-AgNPs-PDA-Au film sensing platform is stable, regenerative and sensitive for horse IgG detection. The detection limit of horse IgG obtained with the present biosensor is 0.625μgmL-1, which is 2-fold and 4-fold lower than that obtained with biosensor based on PDA modified Au film and conventional biosensor based on MPA, respectively. Furthermore, when challenged to real serum samples, our sensor exhibited excellent specificity to horse IgG, suggesting its potential for industrial application.

Abstract
We report the development of a simple and powerful capacitive aptasensor for the detection and estimation of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), a biomarker for breast cancer, in undiluted serum. The study involves the incorporation of interdigitated gold electrodes, which were used to prepare the electrochemical platform. A thiol terminated DNA aptamer with affinity for HER2 was used to prepare the bio-recognition layer via self-assembly on interdigitated gold surfaces. Non-specific binding was prevented by blocking free spaces on surface via starting block phosphate buffer saline-tween20 blocker. The sensor was characterized using cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), atomic force microscopy and contact angle studies. Non-Faradic EIS measurements were utilized to investigate the sensor performance via monitoring of the changes in capacitance. The aptasensor exhibited logarithmically detection of HER2 from 1pM to 100nM in both buffer and undiluted serum with limits of detection lower than 1pM. The results pave the way to develop other aptamer-based biosensors for protein biomarkers detection in undiluted serum.

Abstract
Breast cancer is one of the leading reasons for the morbidity and mortality of cancer related death globally. The modern therapies are basically the combination of the breast-preserving surgeries or ablation with or without node biopsy or destroying the carcinoma cells adjuvant with chemotherapy, radiotherapy, hormonal or biological therapies depending upon the nature of the receptor of the cancerous cells, nature of the lymph node, as well as the tendency of the recurrence. For decade's carcinoma management suffered by the limitation of imagining, targeting and penetrability problem associated with management and cure of this deadly disease leads to unwanted chemo-toxicity and side effects. Alike other antibody mimetics, affibodies are designed with the combinatorial protein engineering approaches which are small and robust protein scaffolds retaining the favorable folding and stability. Affibody is one of the significantly important tools for imaging and diagnosis of the affinity specific over expressed proteins in the breast cancer management. The review summarizes the various affibody strategies uses in the management of breast cancer.

In this context, electrochemical aptamer-based sensors appear promising among all biosensors because they permit multiplexed analysis and provide fast response, sensitivity, specificity and low cost. The aim of this review is to give the readers an overview of recent important achievements in the development of electrochemical aptamer-based biosensors for contaminant detection over the last two years. Special emphasis is placed on aptasensors based on screen-printed electrodes which show a substantial improvement of analytical performances.
