Abstract
Chemical warfare agents (CWAs) are among the most prominent threats to the human population, our peace, and social stability. Therefore, their detection and quantification are of utmost importance to ensure the security and protection of mankind. In recent years, significant developments have been made in supramolecular chemistry, analytical chemistry, and molecular sensors, which have improved our capability to detect CWAs. Fluorescent and colorimetric chemosensors are attractive tools that allow the selective, sensitive, cheap, portable, and real-time analysis of the potential presence of CWAs, where suitable combinations of selective recognition and transduction can be integrated. In this review, we provide a detailed discussion on recently reported molecular sensors with a specific focus on the sensing of each class of CWAs such as nerve agents, blister agents, blood agents, and other toxicants. We will also discuss the current technology used by military forces, and these discussions will include the type of instrumentation and established protocols. Finally, we will conclude this review with our outlook on the limitations and challenges in the area and summarize the potential of promising avenues for this field.

Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are key components of revolutionary disease immunotherapies and are also essential for medical diagnostics and imaging. The impact of cost is illustrated by a price >$200,000 per year per patient for mAb-based cancer therapy. Purification represents a major issue in the final cost of these immunotherapy drugs. Protein A (PrA) resins are widely used to purify antibodies, but resin cost, separation efficiency, reuse, and stability are major issues. This paper explores a synthesis strategy for low-cost, reusable, stable PrA-like nanopockets on core-shell silica-coated magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) for IgG antibody isolation. Mouse IgG2a, a strong PrA binder, was used as a template protein, first attaching it stem-down onto the NP surface. The stem-down orientation of IgG2a on the NP surface before polymerization is critical for designing the films to bind IgGs. Following this, 1-tetraethoxysilane and four organosilane monomers with functional groups capable of mimicking binding interactions of proteins with IgG antibody stems were reacted to form a thin polymer coating on the NPs. After blocking nonspecific binding sites, removal of the mouse IgG2a provided nanopockets on the core-shell NPs that showed binding characteristics for antibodies remarkably similar to PrA. Both smooth and rough core-shell NPs were used, with the latter providing much larger binding capacities for IgGs, with an excellent selectivity slightly better than that of commercial PrA magnetic beads. This paper is the first report of IgG-binding NPs that mimic PrA selectivity. These nanopocket NPs can be used for at least 15 regeneration cycles, and cost/use was 57-fold less than a high-quality commercial PrA resin.

Abstract
Molecular recognition displayed by naturally occurring receptors has continued to inspire new innovations aimed at developing systems that can mimic this natural phenomenon. Since 1930s, a technology called molecular imprinting for producing biomimetic receptors has been in place. In this technology, tailor made binding sites that selectively bind a given target analyte (also called template) are incorporated in a polymer matrix by polymerizing functional monomers and cross-linking monomers around a target analyte followed by removal of the analyte to leave behind cavities specific to the analyte. The success of the imprinting process is defined by two main figures of merit, that is, the imprinting factor, and selectivity, which are determined by comparing the amount of target analyte or structural analogue bound by the molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) and the nonimprinted polymer (NIP). NIP is a control synthesized alongside the MIP but in the absence of the template. However, questions arise on whether these figures of merit are reliable measures of the imprinting effect because of the significant differences between the MIP and the NIP in terms of their physical and chemical characteristics. Therefore, this review critically looks into this subject, with a view of defining the best approaches for determining the imprinting effect.

Abstract
Natural antibodies are used widely for important applications such as biomedical analysis, cancer therapy, and directed drug delivery, but they are expensive and may have limited stability. This study describes synthesis of antibody-like binding sites by molecular imprinting on silica nanoparticles (SiNP) using a combination of four organosilane monomers with amino acid-like side chains providing hydrophobic, hydrophilic, and H-bonding interactions with target proteins. This approach provided artificial antibody (AA) nanoparticles with good selectivity and specificity to binding domains on target proteins in a relatively low-cost synthesis. The AAs were made by polymer grafting onto SiNPs for human serum albumin (HSA) and glucose oxidase (GOx). Binding affinity, selectivity, and specificity was compared to several other proteins using adsorption isotherms and surface plasmon resonance (SPR). The Langmuir-Freundlich adsorption model was used to obtain apparent binding constants (KLF) from binding isotherms of HSA (6.7 × 10(4)) and GOx (4.7 × 10(4)) to their respective AAs. These values were 4-300 fold larger compared to a series of nontemplate proteins. SPR binding studies of AAs with proteins attached to a gold surface confirmed good specificity and revealed faster binding for the target proteins compared to nontarget proteins. Target proteins retained their secondary structures upon binding. Binding capacity of AAHSA for HSA was 5.9 mg HSA/g compared to 1.4 mg/g for previously report imprinted silica beads imprinted with poly(aminophenyl)boronic acid. Also, 90% recovery for HSA spiked into 2% calf serum was found for AAHSA.

Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have become an important tool in the preparation of artificial and robust recognition materials that are capable of mimicking natural systems. MIPs have been regarded as 'antibody mimics' and have shown clear advantages over real antibodies for sensor technology. Currently, on-site diagnostic (OSD) and point-of-care (POC) biosensor development are heavily dominated by antibody-dependent immuno-sensors such as the lateral flow immuno-assay. Although antibodies exhibit a high degree of selectivity, any biological recognition element is inherently unstable with limited shelf-life, even when stored under optimum conditions. OSD and POC tests are essential for disease screening and treatment monitoring as part of emergency management. Introduced or naturally occurring pathogens can cause significant disruptions, raise panic in the population, and result in significant economic losses. Cheaper, smaller, and smarter devices for early detection of disease or environmental hazards ultimately lead to rapid containment and corrective action. To this end, there has been extensive research on detection platforms based on genetic or immune techniques. MIPs have proven to produce selective biological extractions that rival immunoaffinity-based separations, but without the tediously lengthy time-consuming process. MIPs could provide an alternative to antibodies, and ultimately lead to cheaper, smaller, and smarter biosensors.

Abstract
A first of its kind portable, colorimetric detection system has been developed for the rapid diagnosis of abrin poisoning. Abrin, a natural biotoxin that is homologous to ricin yet more lethal, has high potential for becoming a weapon of bioterrorism given its ease of production. Using an immobilization strategy that implements non-natural amino acids for site-specific conjugation, we have created a reusable N-methyltryptophan oxidase based magnetic bead system that is capable of detecting L-abrine, a marker for abrin poisoning, at concentrations as low as 4 μM in mock urine. Furthermore, we propose that this detection strategy may be readily adaptable for sensing other targets of interest. This unique diagnostic test for abrin poisoning has demonstrated key benefits of portability and simple visual readout. These significant advantages can thus provide the potential for more rapid assessment and corresponding poison management if dedicated toxicology laboratories are not an option.

Abstract
We studied the molecular details of DNA aptamer-ricin interactions. The toxic protein ricin molecules were immobilized on a Au(111) surface using a N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) ester to specifically react with lysine residues located on the ricin B chains. A single ricin molecule was visualized in situ using the AFM tip modified with an antiricin aptamer. Computer simulation was used to illustrate the protein and aptamer structures, the single-molecule ricin images on a Au(111) surface, and the binding conformations of ricin-aptamer and ricin-antibody complexes. The various ricin conformations on a Au(111) surface were caused by the different lysine residues reacting with the NHS ester. It was also observed that most of the binding sites for aptamer and antibody on the A chains of ricin molecules were not interfered by the immobilization reaction. The different locations of the ricin binding sites to aptamer and antibody were also distinguished by AFM recognition images and interpreted by simulations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare microtensile bond strengths (MTBS) subsequent to load cycling of resin bonded acid-etched or EDTA-treated dentin using a modified ethanol wet-bonding technique. METHODS Flat dentin surfaces were obtained from extracted human molars and conditioned using 37% H(3)PO(4) (PA) (15s) or 0.1M EDTA (60s). Five experimental adhesives and one commercial bonding agent were applied to the dentin and light-cured. Solvated experimental resins (50% ethanol/50% comonomers) were used as primers and their respective neat resins were used as the adhesives. The resin-bonded teeth were stored in distilled water (24h) or submitted to 5000 loading cycles of 90N. The bonded teeth were then sectioned in beams for MTBS. Modes of failure were examined by scanning electron microscopy. RESULTS The most hydrophobic resin 1 gave the lowest bond strength values to both acid and EDTA-treated dentin. The hydrophobic resin 2 applied to EDTA-treated dentin showed lower bond strengths after cycling load but this did not occur when it was bonded to PA-etched dentin. Resins 3 and 4, which contained hydrophilic monomers, gave higher bond strengths to both EDTA-treated or acid-etched dentin and showed no significant difference after load cycling. The most hydrophilic resin 5 showed no significant difference in bond strengths after cycling loading when bonded to EDTA or phosphoric acid treated dentin but exhibited low bond strengths. SIGNIFICANCE The presence of different functional monomers influences the MTBS of the adhesive systems when submitted to cyclic loads. Adhesives containing hydrophilic comonomers are not affected by cycling load challenge especially when applied on EDTA-treated dentin followed by ethanol wet bonding.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to explore the therapeutic opportunities of each step of 3-step etch-and-rinse adhesives. METHODS Etch-and-rinse adhesive systems are the oldest of the multi-generation evolution of resin bonding systems. In the 3-step version, they involve acid-etching, priming and application of a separate adhesive. Each step can accomplish multiple goals. Acid-etching, using 32-37% phosphoric acid (pH 0.1-0.4) not only simultaneously etches enamel and dentin, but the low pH kills many residual bacteria. RESULTS Some etchants include anti-microbial compounds such as benzalkonium chloride that also inhibits matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in dentin. Primers are usually water and HEMA-rich solutions that ensure complete expansion of the collagen fibril meshwork and wet the collagen with hydrophilic monomers. However, water alone can re-expand dried dentin and can also serve as a vehicle for protease inhibitors or protein cross-linking agents that may increase the durability of resin-dentin bonds. In the future, ethanol or other water-free solvents may serve as dehydrating primers that may also contain antibacterial quaternary ammonium methacrylates to inhibit dentin MMPs and increase the durability of resin-dentin bonds. The complete evaporation of solvents is nearly impossible. SIGNIFICANCE Manufacturers may need to optimize solvent concentrations. Solvent-free adhesives can seal resin-dentin interfaces with hydrophobic resins that may also contain fluoride and antimicrobial compounds. Etch-and-rinse adhesives produce higher resin-dentin bonds that are more durable than most 1 and 2-step adhesives. Incorporation of protease inhibitors in etchants and/or cross-linking agents in primers may increase the durability of resin-dentin bonds. The therapeutic potential of etch-and-rinse adhesives has yet to be fully exploited.
