Abstract
The development of a universal, sensitive, and rapid assay platform to achieve detections of heavy metal, nucleic acid and bacteria is of great significance but it also faces a thorny challenge. Herein, a novel and universal array platform was developed by combining photonic crystals (PCs) and DNA nanomachine. The developed array platform integrated the physical and biological signal amplification ability of PCs and DNA nanomachine, resulting in ultrasensitive detections of Hg2+, DNA, and Shigella sonnei with limits of detection (LODs) of 22.1 ppt, 31.6 fM, and 9 CFU/mL, respectively. More importantly, by utilizing a microplate reader as signal output device, the array achieved high-throughput scanning (96 samples/3 min) with only 2 μL loading sample, which is advantageous for the detection of infectious dangerous targets. In addition, the PCs array could be obtained easily and rapidly based on self-assembly of colloidal nanospheres, and the DNA nanomachine was operated with enzyme-free and time-saving features. Benefiting from these merits, the proposed PCs array offered a powerful universal platform for large-scale detection of various analytes in the fields of pollution monitoring, epidemic control, and public health.

Abstract
The nanoprobe-based signal amplification strategy is a powerful way to ultrasensitively detect biomolecules. Herein, a gold nanoparticle-decorated molybdenum disulfide (MoS2-AuNP)-based multilayer nanoprobe (MLNP) was designed for ultrasensitive analysis of microRNA-21 (miRNA-21). The MLNP-amplified electrochemical biosensor exhibited an ultrawide dynamic range (10 aM-1 μM) and an ultralow detection limit (38 aM) for target miRNA-21 analysis. Furthermore, this biosensor can determine miRNA-21 expression in cell lysates of 100 human cervical cancer (HeLa) cells. Our results demonstrate that MoS2-AuNP nanocomposites have great potential in constructing biosensors for target molecule analysis.

Abstract
Human T-lymphotropic virus type II (HTLV-II) is a crucial retrovirus that is closely associated with a variety of human diseases. Herein, an ultrasensitive fluorescent HTLV-II DNA detection strategy was developed for the first time based on magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) amplification. In this approach, hairpin DNA probes (pDNA) labelled with 5' thiol and 3' azide group terminally were immobilized on amino group modified MNPs surface through sulfo-N-succinimidyl-4-maleimidobutyrate sodium salt (sulfo-GMBS) cross-linkers. In the presence of target DNAs (tDNA), pDNA hybridized with tDNA to form double-stranded DNA, and therefore its azide group was away from the MNPs surface. Subsequently, to initiate ATRP reaction, initiators were introduced into the pDNA by a Cu (I)-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition (CuAAC). Then, large numbers of 9-anthracenylmethyl methacrylate polymer (pAMMA) were successfully labelled on the MNPs surface, resulting in significant amplification of the fluorescence signal. Under optimized conditions, the fluorescence signal was proportional to the logarithm of the concentration of tDNA over the range from 1 fM to 1 nM, with a detection limit of 0.22 fM. Moreover, this strategy was capable of discriminating mismatched bases and detecting HTLV-II DNA in human serum samples. By virtue of the high sensitivity, selectivity, simplicity and economy, this ultrasensitive biosensor demonstrates great potential for biomedical research and early clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
A fluorogenic aptamer can specifically interact with a fluorophore to activate its fluorescence. These nucleic acid-based fluorogenic modules have been dramatically developed over the past decade, and have been used as versatile reporters in the sensor development and for intracellular imaging. In this review, we summarize the design principles, applications, and challenges of the first-generation fluorogenic RNA-based sensors. Moreover, we discuss some strategies to develop next-generation biosensors with improved sensitivity, selectivity, quantification property, and eukaryotic robustness. Using genetically encoded catalytic hairpin assembly strategy as an example, we further introduce a standard protocol to design, characterize, and apply these fluorogenic RNA-based sensors for in vitro detection and cellular imaging of target biomolecules. By incorporating natural RNA machineries, nucleic acid nanotechnology, and systematic evolution approaches, next-generation fluorogenic RNA-based devices can be potentially engineered to be widely applied in cell biology and biomedicine.

Abstract
Novel microarray platform for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) detection has been developed using silicon nanowires (SiNWs) as support and two different surface modification methods for attaining the necessary functional groups. Accordingly, we compared the detection specificity and stability over time of the probes printed on SiNWs modified with (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) and glutaraldehyde (GAD), or coated with a simpler procedure using epoxy-based SU-8 photoresist. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) were used for comparative characterization of the unmodified and coated SiNWs. The hybridization efficiency was assessed by comprehensive statistical analysis of the acquired data from confocal fluorescence scanning of the manufactured biochips. The high detection specificity between the hybridized probes containing different mismatch types was demonstrated on SU-8 coating by one way ANOVA test (adjusted p value *** < .0001). The stability over time of the probes tethered on SiNWs coated with SU-8 was evaluated after 1, 4, 8 and 21 days of probe incubation, revealing values for coefficient of variation (CV) between 2.4% and 5.6%. The signal-to-both-standard-deviations ratio measured for SU-8 coated SiNWs platform was similar to the commercial support, while the APTES-GAD coated SiNWs exhibited the highest values.

Abstract
Modern optical detection technology plays a critical role in current clinical detection due to its high sensitivity and accuracy. However, higher requirements such as extremely high detection sensitivity have been put forward due to the clinical needs for the early finding and diagnosing of malignant tumors which are significant for tumor therapy. The technology of isothermal amplification with nucleic acids opens up avenues for meeting this requirement. Recent reports have shown that a nucleic acid amplification-assisted modern optical sensing interface has achieved satisfactory sensitivity and accuracy, high speed and specificity. Compared with isothermal amplification technology designed to work completely in a solution system, solid biosensing interfaces demonstrated better performances in stability and sensitivity due to their ease of separation from the reaction mixture and the better signal transduction on these optical nano-biosensing interfaces. Also the flexibility and designability during the construction of these nano-biosensing interfaces provided a promising research topic for the ultrasensitive detection of cancer diseases. In this review, we describe the construction of the burgeoning number of optical nano-biosensing interfaces assisted by a nucleic acid amplification strategy, and provide insightful views on: (1) approaches to the smart fabrication of an optical nano-biosensing interface, (2) biosensing mechanisms via the nucleic acid amplification method, (3) the newest strategies and future perspectives.

Abstract

Efficiently detecting
DNA sequences within a limited time is vital
for disease screening and public health monitoring. This calls for
a new method that combines high sensitivity, fast read-out time, and
easy manipulation of the sample, avoiding the extensive steps of DNA
amplification, purification, or grafting to a surface. Here, we introduce
photon cross-correlation spectroscopy as a new method for specific
DNA sensing with high sensitivity in a single-step homogeneous solution
phase. Our approach is based on confocal dual-color illumination and
detection of the scattering intensities from individual silver nanoparticles
and gold nanorods. In the absence of the target DNA, the nanoparticles
move independently and their respective scattering signals are uncorrelated.
In the presence of the target DNA, the probe-functionalized gold and
silver nanoparticles assemble via DNA hybridization with the target,
giving rise to temporal coincidence between the signals scattered
by each nanoparticle. The degree of coincidence accurately quantifies
the amount of target DNA. To demonstrate the efficiency of our technique,
we detect a specific DNA sequence of sesame, an allergenic food ingredient,
for a range of concentration from 5 pM to 1.5 nM with a limit of detection
of 1 pM. Our method is sensitive and specific enough to detect single
nucleotide deletion and mismatch. With the dual-color scattering signals
being much brighter than fluorescence-based analogs, the analysis
is fast, quantitative, and simple to operate, making it valuable for
biosensing applications.

Abstract
Herein, a facile and sensitive microRNA (miRNA) biosensor was designed by using interfacial biotinylated thiolated DNA molecular beacon (MB) as probe and streptavidin functionalized gold nanorods (Stre-GNRs) as tag for the enhanced surface plasmon resonance (SPR) signal. The MB probe with two terminals labeled with biotin and thiol groups, respectively, was modified on the gold film via thiol-gold interaction. Upon hybridization with the target, the biotinylated group became accessible to the Stre-GNRs. The introduction of the Stre-GNRs tag to the gold film produced strong SPR signal for detection. Our work has illustrated that the plasmonic field extension generated from the gold film to GNRs and the mass increase due to the GNRs have led to drastic sensitivity enhancement. Under optimal conditions, this proposed approach allowed detection of miRNA with the limit of detection (LOD) down to 0.045 pM. The results have shown that the MB probe functionalized sensing film, together with streptavidin-conjugated GNRs, was readily served as a plasmonic coupling partner that can be used as a powerful ultrasensitive sandwich assay for miRNA detection, and GNRs were readily served as promising amplification labels in SPR sensing technology.

Abstract
A versatile and ultrasensitive colorimetric detection platform has been developed based on the hybridization chain reaction (HCR)-triggered enzyme cascade amplification in this work. The proposal involves the preparation of two different hairpin DNA strands consisting of the H1, modified with glucose oxidase (GOx-H1) and H2, modified with horseradish peroxidase (HRP-H2). The H1 and H2 were composed of complementary sequence of nucleic acid target (T) and interlaced complementary stem-loop sequences. In the nucleic acid detection, the hybridization of T and its complementary sequence induces the autonomous assembly of GOx-H1 and HRP-H2 through the predictable HCR, accompanied by the formation of GOx/HRP enzyme pairs with a multiple enzymatic cascade. In contrast to the crude mixture of free GOx-H1 and HRP-H2, the catalytic performance of enzyme cascade reaction has been significantly enhanced, which can be determined by monitoring the absorbance change of 2, 2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS2-), a typical substrate with hydrogen peroxide for the HRP. Furthermore, this platform can be utilized in the assay of biological substances by the introduction of corresponding aptamer (Apt), complementary strands (Com), and an assistant hairpin DNA strand (HAssist). In view of the signal amplification of HCR and the enhanced catalytic performance of cascaded enzymes, our colorimetric assay system exhibits excellent sensitivity, and the detection limits have been calculated to be 5.2 fM and 0.8 pM for the nucleic acid target (T as a model) and biological substances (ATP as a model), respectively.
