Sensitive fluorescence detection based on dimeric G-quadruplex combined with enzyme-assisted solid-phase microextraction of streptomycin in honey. Food Chem 2024; 442:138505. [PMID: 38266408 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.138505] [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: 09/06/2023] [Revised: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 01/17/2024] [Indexed: 01/26/2024]
Abstract
Streptomycin (STR), an aminoglycoside antibiotic with the potential to persist in honey and other food products, may induce allergy, toxicity and antibiotic resistance in humans. In this study, we developed a solid-phase microextraction (SPME) biosensor based on a quartz rod that was modified with double-stranded DNA structures consisting of partially complementary G-rich base DNA strand and STR aptamer. The STR isolated by SPME initially bound to the aptamer. Then the remaining double-stranded DNA structures were cleaved by the Nt.BstNBI enzyme, resulting in release of G-quadruplex dimers. The latter formed a complex with thioflain T fluorescent dye, resulting in an amplified fluorescence response. The method exhibited high sensitivity (a limit of detection of 10.84 pM), wide linear range (0.05 nM ∼ 500 nM (with determination coefficient > 0.99)), and simple operation, making it suitable and convenient for STR detection. Successful STR determination in genuine honey samples was demonstrated.

Machine-learning-driven optical immunosensor based on microspheres-encoded signal transduction for the rapid and multiplexed detection of antibiotics in milk. Food Chem 2024; 437:137740. [PMID: 37871421 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.137740] [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: 08/02/2023] [Revised: 10/01/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 10/25/2023]
Abstract
Antibiotic residues are the most common contaminants in milk and other related dairy products. Simultaneous, convenient, and stable detection of antibiotic residues in foods is vital to secure public health. Herein, we proposed an optical immunosensor with easily-functionalized polystyrene nanoparticles differing in size and quantity, and bearing multiplex signal probes for the simultaneous detection of multiple antibiotics through a simple one-step signal conversion reaction. After the integration of the machine-learning-based transcoding analysis, this sensor is suitable for multiplexed detection of antibiotics in a broad linear range from pg/mL to ng/mL within 30 min, with an overall accuracy of >99 %. Compared to the conventional standard chemiluminescence immunoassays, this immunosensor is suitable for the accurate quantification of multiple antibiotics in milk, with improved accuracy, reduced costs, and simplified procedure. This ensures its applications in food safety monitoring when simultaneous detection of multiple hazardous substances in food matrices is needed.

Food Chem 2024; 430:136946.

Abstract
Herein, a functionalized ionic liquid (IL) 7-HDCP (7-hydroxycoumarin-quaternary phosphorus) was developed as NH3 trapping agents and fluorescent indicators to achieve in-time and on-site detection of seafood freshness. Interestingly, the IL displayed remarkable blue fluorescence "turn-on" enhancement to gaseous amine due to excellent amine solubility. By FTIR and 1H NMR spectrogram, this fluorescence "turn-on" phenomenon originated from the weak hydrogen bonding between the ester group of the coumarin functional group and the ammonia molecule. Moreover, the IL exhibited a rapid response (<11 s), prominent sensitivity (0.12 ppm), excellent selectivity (10 interfering substances) and outstanding reversibility (>22 cycles). Benefiting from ion characters, 7-HDCP obtained advantages of easy-to-fabricate and easy-to-use, which was fabricated by one-step simple immersion without aggregation-caused quenching phenomenon. This portable and sensitive smart label made of ion probes facilitates the timely and on-site NH3 detection in the early deterioration stages of aquatic products, enabling "early detection, early warning, and early treatment".

Abstract
The overuse and abuse of antibiotics have led to increased pollution in water environments. Thus, it is crucial to develop a rapid, high-frequency, and cost-effective method for on-site detection of antibiotics. In this regard, a reusable fiber-embedded microfluidic chip was constructed by combining a microfluidic chip with a functionalized fiber bioprobe that served as both a biorecognition element and an optical transducer. The fiber-embedded microfluidic chip enabled the quantitative detection of kanamycin (KANA) by integrating a portable all-fiber evanescent wave fluorescence detection device. Under optimized conditions, quantitative KANA detection was achieved with a detection limit of 0.03 μg L-1 and a linear detection range of 0.21-10.3 μg L-1. The accurate detection of KANA in various water samples can be completed within 25 min without pretreatment. The functionalized fiber-embedded microfluidic chip could be reused more than 200 times without significant performance loss. To demonstrate its suitability for practical applications, the fiber-embedded microfluidic chip was used to investigate KANA residues in surface waters obtained from the Qinghe River in Beijing, China. The results were compared with those of a traditional enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, which showed a high correlation. Compared to conventional optical microfluidic chips, the proposed fiber-embedded microfluidic chip has several advantages, including its ease of use, miniaturization, cost-effectiveness, reusability, and high flexibility. It is an ideal alternative for rapid, sensitive on-site detection of antibiotics and other trace substances in environmental, food, and medical fields.

Abstract
In addition to carrying and transmitting genetic material, some DNA molecules have specific binding ability or catalytic function. DNA with this special function is collectively referred to as functional DNA (fDNA), such as aptamer, DNAzyme and so on. fDNA has the advantages of simple synthetic process, low cost and low toxicity. It also has high chemical stability, recognition specificity and biocompatibility. In recent years, fDNA biosensors have been widely investigated as signal recognition elements and signal transduction elements for the detection of non-nucleic acid targets. However, the main problem of fDNA sensors is their limited sensitivity to trace targets, especially when the affinity of fDNA to the targets is low. To further improve the sensitivity, various nucleic acid signal amplification strategies (NASAS) are explored to improve the limit of detection of fDNA. In this review, we will introduce four NASAS (hybridization chain reaction, entropy-driven catalysis, rolling circle amplification, CRISPR/Cas system) and the corresponding design principles. The principle and application of these fDNA sensors integrated with signal amplification strategies for detection of non-nucleic acid targets are summarized. Finally, the main challenges and application prospects of NASAS integrated fDNA biosensing system are discussed.

Abstract
As isothermal, enzyme-free signal amplification strategies, hybridization chain reaction (HCR) and catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) possess the advantages such as high amplification efficiency, excellent biocompatibility, mild reactions, and easy operation. Therefore, they have been widely applied in DNA-based biosensors for detecting small molecules, nucleic acids, and proteins. In this review, we summarize the recent progress of DNA-based sensors employing typical and advanced HCR and CHA strategies, including branched HCR or CHA, localized HCR or CHA, and cascaded reactions. In addition, the bottlenecks of implementing HCR and CHA in biosensing applications are discussed, such as high background signals, lower amplification efficiency than enzyme-assisted techniques, slow kinetics, poor stability, and internalization of DNA probes in cellular applications.

Abstract
Catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) appears to be a particularly appealing nucleic acid circuit because of its powerful amplification capability, simple protocols, and enzyme-free and isothermal conditions, and can combine with various signal output modes for the biosensing of various analytes. Especially in the last five years, vast CHA related studies have sprung up. With the deep exploration of the CHA mechanism, some novel and excellent CHA strategies have been proposed; meanwhile the CHA cascade strategies with various amplification techniques further improve the analysis performance. Furthermore, diverse CHA based biosensors have been tactfully engineered and extensively employed in imaging applications in living cells and in vivo ascribed to its gentle reaction, efficient amplification and universality. Hence, we present a comprehensive and systematic summary of the progress in CHA and its application in bioimaging and biomedicine to date. At first, we introduced the mechanism and diversification of CHA in detail, including the newly developed CHA and its ingenious combination with a variety of other technologies. Concurrently, we summarized the latest application progress of different CHA strategies in bioimaging and biomedicine, highlighting the merits and drawbacks of representative approaches. Finally, we put forward some views on the challenges and prospects of CHA in bioimaging and biomedicine in the future.

Abstract
G-quadruplex (G4) is a very interesting DNA structure, commonly associated with cancer and its treatment. With flexible binding ability, G4 has been extended as a significant component in biosensors. On account of its simple operation, high sensitivity and low cost, G4-based biosensors have attracted considerable interest for the detection of food contaminants. In this review, research published in recent 5 years is collated from a principle perspective, that is target recognition and signal transduction. Contaminants with G4 binding capacity are illustrated, emerging G4-based biosensors including colorimetric, electrochemical and fluorescent sensors are also elaborated. The current review indicates that G4 has provided an efficient and effective solution for the rapid detection of food contaminants. A distinctive feature of G4 as recognition unit is the simple composition, but the selectivity is still unsatisfactory. As signal reporter, G4/hemin DNAzyme has not only achieved amplified signals, but also enabled visualized detection, which offers great potential for on-site measurement. With improved selectivity and visualized signal, the combination of aptamer and G4 seems to be an ideal strategy. This promising combination should be developed for the real-time monitor of multiple contaminants in food matrix.

Abstract
Microfluidic CE (MCE) is an effective solution for rapid and sensitive determination of multiple analytes. Herein, a dynamic coated cyclic olefin copolymer microchip was developed having an on-chip micropump for fluid velocity adjusting in electrophoretic separations. This micropump was fabricated by constructing a polyacrylamide gel membrane at one channel terminal. Once applying electric field across the membrane, a pressure-driven flow generated automatically to balance the electroosmotic flow (EOF) mismatch at the channel-membrane interface. The influence of gel precursor concentration and operating voltages on the fluid velocity was carefully evaluated. Moreover, the highly integration of injection, separation, and pumping units of the MCE system minimized the dead volume and provides satisfied column efficiency. Experiments showed that by adjusting of pumping voltage reduced the fluid velocity by a factor of 6, resulting six- and threefold resolving power enhancements of rhodamine dye mixture and amino acid mixture, respectively. Furthermore, the developed MCE method was applied for rhodamines and amino acids quantitation in food and cosmetics, with standard addition recoveries of 87.3-106.9% and 89.9-117.4%, respectively. These results were also confirmed by standard HPLC method, revealing the application potential in fast and onsite analysis of complex samples.

Multiply-amplified strategy for the ultrasensitive detection of kanamycin via aptamer-triggered three-dimensional G-quadruplex/Ni-Fe layered double oxide frame networks. Anal Chim Acta 2021; 1187:339169.

Abstract
In this work, a multiply-amplified peroxidase-like colorimetric strategy was proposed for the high-specific recognition and ultrasensitive detection of kanamycin (Kana). Based on two Kana-aptamer triggered sequential reactions, G-quadruplex (G4) and DNA (hairpins) modified Ni-Fe layered double oxides (LDOs) could be obtained simultaneously. Later, a three-dimensional G4/LDO frame networks, as a novel DNAzyme, with enhanced peroxidase-like catalytic activity was assembled through electrostatic interaction. This DNAzyme catalyzed 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine oxidation for the colorimetric detection of Kana. The enhancement principle was discussed and the charge transfer process during the catalytic reaction was investigated. Under the optimal experiment conditions, the proposed method exhibited high sensitivity, where the linear range is from 10 fM to 10 nM (r2 = 0.992), and the limit of detection is 3 fM (S/N = 3). The practicability of this assay was demonstrated by successfully application of residual Kana detection in genuine milk and urine samples.

Food Chem 2021; 366:130648. [PMID: 34325245 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2021.130648] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2021] [Revised: 06/24/2021] [Accepted: 07/17/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
A novel label-free fluorescence aptasensor was established for chloramphenicol (CAP) detection by DNA four-arm junction-assisted target recycling and SYBR Green I dye-aided fluorescence-signal amplification. The CAP aptamer was hybridized to its complementary strand (primer) to form a double-stranded primer/aptamer complex. In the presence of CAP, aptamers can specifically bind with CAP to dissociate primers, which can trigger the self-assembly of four hairpins to continuously generate DNA four-arm junctions. After digesting the excess hairpins using T7 exonuclease, SYBR Green I was inserted into the base pair-rich DNA four-arm junctions, which led to a significant increase in fluorescence intensity. Under optimal conditions, the developed aptasensor can detect CAP in a linear range of 1.0 pg mL-1 to 10 ng mL-1 with a detection limit of 0.72 pg mL-1. The recovery rates in milk and honey ranged from 90.3% to 106.6%. Thus, the method shows substantial potential for CAP detection in food products.

Abstract
Milk is a necessity for human life. However, it is susceptible to contamination and adulteration. Microfluidic analysis devices have attracted significant attention for the high-throughput quality inspection and contaminant analysis of milk samples in recent years. This review describes the major proposals presented in the literature for the pretreatment, contaminant detection, and quality inspection of milk samples using microfluidic lab-on-a-chip and lab-on-paper platforms in the past five years. The review focuses on the sample separation, sample extraction, and sample preconcentration/amplification steps of the pretreatment process and the determination of aflatoxins, antibiotics, drugs, melamine, and foodborne pathogens in the detection process. Recent proposals for the general quality inspection of milk samples, including the viscosity and presence of adulteration, are also discussed. The review concludes with a brief perspective on the challenges facing the future development of microfluidic devices for the analysis of milk samples in the coming years.

Abstract
Several antibiotics have been applied to veterinary medicine due to their broad-spectrum of antibacterial activity and prophylactic power. Residues of these antibiotics can be accumulated in dairy cattle, in addition to promoting contamination of the environment and, in more serious cases, in milk, causing a public health problem. Different regulatory agencies establish maximum residue limits for these antibiotics in milk, so it becomes important to develop sensitive analytical methods for monitoring these compounds. Electrochemical techniques are important analytical tools in analytical chemistry because they present low cost, simplicity, high sensitivity, and adequate analytical frequency (sample throughput) for routine analyses. In this sense, this review summarizes the state of the art of the main electrochemical sensors and biosensors, instrumental techniques, and sample preparation used for the development of analytical methods, published in the last five years, for the monitoring of different classes of antibiotics: aminoglycosides, amphenicols, beta-lactams, fluoroquinolones, sulfonamides, and tetracyclines, in milk samples. The different strategies to develop electrochemical sensors and biosensors are critically compared considering their analytical features. The mechanisms of electrochemical oxidation/reduction of the antibiotics are revised and discussed considering strategies to improve the selectivity of the method. In addition, current challenges and future prospects are discussed.

Abstract
Poor antimatrix interference capability of aptamers is one of the major obstacles preventing their wide applications for real-sample detections. Here, we devise a multiple-function interface, denoted as a nanoscale affinity double layer (NADL), to overcome this bottleneck via in situ simultaneous target enrichment, purification, and detection. The NADL consists of an upper aptamer layer for target purification and sensing and a lower nanoscale solid-phase microextraction (SPME) layer for sample enrichment. The targets flowing through the NADL-functionalized surface are instantly million-fold enriched and purified by the sequential extraction of aptamer and SPME. The formation of the aptamer-target complex is greatly enhanced, enabling ultrasensitive detection of targets with minimized interference from the matrix. Taking the fiber-optic evanescent wave sensor as an example, we demonstrated the feasibility and generality of the NADL. The unprecedented detection of limits of 800, 4.8, 40, and 0.14 fM were, respectively, achieved for three representative small-molecule targets with distinct hydrophobicity (kanamycin A, sulfadimethoxine, and di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate) and protein target (human serum albumin), corresponding to 2500 to 3 × 108-fold improvement compared to the sensors without the NADL. Our sensors also showed exceptionally high target specificity (>1000) and tunable dynamic ranges simply by manipulating the SPME layer. With these features comes the ability to directly detect targets in diluted environmental, food, and biological samples at concentrations all well below the tolerance limits.

Abstract
The existence of contaminants in food poses a serious threat to human health. In recent years, aptamer sensors (aptasensors) have been developed rapidly for the detection of food contaminants because of their high specificity, design flexibility, and high efficiency. However, the development of high-throughput, highly sensitive, on-site, and cost-effective methods for simultaneous detection of food contaminants is still restricted due to multiple signal overlap or mutual interference and cross-reaction between different analytes with similar molecular structures. To overcome these problems, this Review summarizes some effective strategies from the articles published in recent years about multiplexed aptasensors for the simultaneous detection of food contaminants. This work focuses on the application of multiplexed aptasensors to simultaneously detect antibiotics, pathogens, and mycotoxins in food. These aptasensors mainly contain fluorescent aptasensors, electrochemical aptasensors, surface-enhanced Raman scattering-based aptasensors, microfluidic chip aptasensors, and paper-based multiplexed aptasensors. In addition, this Review also covers the application of nucleic acid cycle amplification and nanomaterial amplification strategies to improve the detection sensitivity. Finally, the limitations and challenges in the design of multiplexed aptasensor are also taken into account.

Abstract
Owing to their high programmability and modularity, autonomous enzyme-free nucleic acid circuits are attracting ever-growing interest as signal amplifiers with potential applications in developing highly sensitive biosensing techniques. Besides nucleic acid input, the biosensing scope of aptamer-integrated nucleic acids could be further expanded to non-nucleic targets by integrating nucleic acid circuits with aptamers-a class of functional oligonucleotides with binding capabilities toward specific targets. By coupling upstream target recognition with downstream signal amplification, aptamer-integrated nucleic acid circuits enable aptasensors with increased sensitivity and enhanced performances, which may act as powerful tools in various fields including environment monitoring, personal care, clinical diagnosis, etc. In designing aptamer-integrated nucleic acid circuits, smart integration between aptamer and nucleic acid circuits plays a crucial role in developing reliable circuits with good performances. To date, although there are plenty of published researches adopting aptamer-integrated nucleic acid circuits as amplifiers in biosensing systems, deep discussion or systematic review on rational design strategies for aptamer-integrated nucleic acid circuits is still lacking. To fill this gap, rational aptamer-nucleic acid circuits integration modes were classified and summarized for the first time based on reviewing the state of art of existing aptamer-integrated nucleic acid circuits. Moreover, theoretical updates in nucleic acid circuits designs and major challenges to be overcome in developing highly sensitive aptamer-integrated nucleic acids based biosensing systems are discussed in this review.

Abstract
The preparation of portable colorimetric biosensor strips is described by combining aptamer-immobilized electrospun nanofiber membranes (A-NFMs) with signal probes (DNA-conjugated gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)) for determination of kanamycin (KMC) as a model analyte. The A-NFMs were decorated with complementary single-stranded DNA (cDNA) of KMC aptamer-conjugated AuNPs (cDNA@Au) to get the colorimetric biosensor strips. The constructed biosensor strips showed a significant absorbance decreasing band at 510 nm which induce a visual color change from pink to white when exposed to KMC, with a low detection limit of 2.5 nM (at S/N = 3). The effect is due to disassembling of cDNA@Au from NFMs in the presence of KMC because the aptamer has a higher affinity to KMC than its complementary DNA, which resulted in replacing cDNA@Au with KMC. Satisfactory performance was observed in real sample (drinking water and milk) analysis with a recovery of 98.9-102.2%. The constructed colorimetric biosensor test strips hold great application promise for food safety control. Graphical abstract Schematic representation of biosensor strips for kanamycin detection prepared with the cDNA@Au immobilized aptamer-based cellulose acetate nanofibers.

Abstract
Microfluidic capillary electrophoresis (MCE) is the novel technique resulted from the CE mininaturization as planar separation and analysis device. This review presents and discusses various application fields of this advanced technology published in the period 2017 till mid-2019 in eight different sections including clinical, biological, single cell analysis, environmental, pharmaceuticals, food analysis, forensic and ion analysis. The need for miniaturization of CE and the consequence advantages achieved are also discussed including high-throughput, miniaturized detection, effective separation, portability and the need for micro- or even nano-volume of samples. Comprehensive tables for the MCE applications in the different studied fields are provided. Also, figure comparing the number of the published papers applying MCE in the eight discussed fields within the studied period is included. The future investigation should put into consideration the possibility of replacing conventional CE with the MCE after proper validation. Suitable validation parameters with their suitable accepted ranges should be tailored for analysis methods utilizing such unique technique (MCE).

Abstract
Nontargeted analysis of food safety requires selective removal of interference matrices and highly efficient recovery of chemical hazards. Porous materials such as covalent organic frameworks (COFs) show great promise in selective adsorption of matrix molecules via size selectivity. Considering the complexity of interference matrices, we prepared crystalline heteropore COFs whose two kinds of pores have comparable sizes to those of several common phytochromes, main interference matrices in vegetable sample analysis. By controlling the growth of COFs on the surface of Fe3O4 nanoparticles or by utilizing a facile co-electrospinning method, heteropore COF-based magnetic nanospheres or electrospun nanofiber films were prepared, respectively. Both the nanospheres and the films maintain the dual-pore structures of COFs and show good stability and excellent reusability. Via simple magnetic separation or immersion operation, respectively, they were successfully used for the complete removal of phytochromes and highly efficient recovery of 15 pesticides from the extracts of four vegetable samples, and the recoveries are in the range of 83.10-114.00 and 60.52-107.35%, respectively. Film-based immersion operation gives better sample pretreatment performance than the film-based filtration one. This work highlights the great application potentials of heteropore COFs in sample pretreatment for nontargeted analysis, thus opening up a new way to achieve high-performance sample preparation in many fields such as food safety analysis, environment monitoring, and so on.

Abstract
Accurate onsite profiling of fluoroquinolone antibiotics (FQs) is of vital significance for ensuring food safety and estimating environmental pollution. Here, we propose a smartphone-based QD ratiometric fluorescence-sensing system to precisely report the level of FQs. As a proof of concept, we chose gatifloxacin (GFLX, a typical member of FQs) as the model for the analytical target, which could effectively trigger the fluorescence color variation of QDs from bright yellow-green (∼557 nm) to blue (∼448 nm) through the photoinduced electron-transfer (PET) process, thus yielding an evident ratiometric response. Based on this, the level of GFLX can be reported within a wide linear range from 0.85 nM to 3.6 μM. Moreover, this assay owns a high sensitivity with a low detection limit of 0.26 nM for GFLX and a quick sample-to-answer monitoring time of 5.0 min, manifesting that this platform could be fully qualified for onsite requirements. Interestingly, this portable device has successfully been applied for the onsite detection of GFLX in real food (i.e., milk and drinking water) and environmental (i.e., fish-farming water) samples with acceptable results. This developed platform offers a great promise for the point-of-care detection of FQ residues in practical application with the merits of being label-free, low-cost, and rapid, thus opening a new pathway for the onsite evaluation of food safety and environmental health.

Abstract
In this work, we have developed an all-in-one aptasensor based on an enzyme-driven three-dimensional DNA walker for antibiotic detection. To overcome the drawback of time-consuming methods, high-density substrate strands were anchored on the walking interface that accelerated the signal amplification efficiency. Such an all-in-one design integrated the functionality of target recognition, signal amplification, as well as signal output into a single probe. Upon addition of kanamycin, the activated walking strand moved along the track by the stepwise cleavage of a nicking enzyme, which resulted in the enhancement of the fluorescence intensity of the solution. Under the optimized conditions, the detection process was accomplished in 40 min with a low detection limit of 1.23 pM. This aptasensor was also applied in spiked milk samples with satisfactory recoveries of 97.76% to 105.33%, demonstrating an excellent stability and accuracy. Therefore, this all-in-one aptasensor shows great potential for applications in food safety.

The Growing Interest in Development of Innovative Optical Aptasensors for the Detection of Antimicrobial Residues in Food Products. BIOSENSORS-BASEL 2020; 10:bios10030021.

Abstract
The presence of antimicrobial residues in food-producing animals can lead to harmful effects on the consumer (e.g., allergies, antimicrobial resistance, toxicological effects) and cause issues in food transformation (i.e., cheese, yogurts production). Therefore, to control antimicrobial residues in food products of animal origin, screening methods are of utmost importance. Microbiological and immunological methods (e.g., ELISA, dipsticks) are conventional screening methods. Biosensors are an innovative solution for the development of more performant screening methods. Among the different kinds of biosensing elements (e.g., antibodies, aptamers, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIP), enzymes), aptamers for targeting antimicrobial residues are in continuous development since 2000. Therefore, this review has highlighted recent advances in the development of aptasensors, which present multiple advantages over immunosensors. Most of the aptasensors described in the literature for the detection of antimicrobial residues in animal-derived food products are either optical or electrochemical sensors. In this review, I have focused on optical aptasensors and showed how nanotechnologies (nanomaterials, micro/nanofluidics, and signal amplification techniques) largely contribute to the improvement of their performance (sensitivity, specificity, miniaturization, portability). Finally, I have explored different techniques to develop multiplex screening methods. Multiplex screening methods are necessary for the wide spectrum detection of antimicrobials authorized for animal treatment (i.e., having maximum residue limits).

Abstract
An ultrasensitive fluorescence sensing strategy for kanamycin (KANA) determination using endonuclease IV (Endo IV)-powered DNA walker, and hybridization chain reaction (HCR) amplification was reported. The sensing system consists of Endo IV-powered 3D DNA walker using for the specific recognition of KANA and the formation of the initiators, two metastable hairpin probes as the substrates of HCR and a tetrahydrofuran abasic site (AP site)-embeded fluorescence-quenched probe for fluorescence signal output. On account of this skilled design of sensing system, the specific binding between KANA and its aptamer activates DNA walker, in which the swing arm can move autonomously along the 3D track via Endo IV-mediated hydrolysis of the anchorages, inducing the formation of initiators that initiates HCR and the following Endo IV-assisted cyclic cleavage of fluorescence reporter probes. The use of Endo IV offers the advantages of simplified and accessible design without the need of specific sequence in DNA substrates. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the fluorescence biosensor shows excellent sensitivity toward KANA detection with a detection limit as low as 1.01 pM (the excitation wavelength is 486 nm). The practical applicability of this strategy is demonstrated by detecting KANA in spiked milk samples with recovery in the range of 98 to 102%. Therefore, this reported strategy might create an accurate and robust fluorescence sensing platform for trace amounts of antibiotic residues determination and related safety analysis.

Abstract
Over the last two decades, the group of techniques called affinity probe CE has been widely used for the detection and the determination of several types of biomolecules with high sensitivity. These techniques combine the low sample consumption and high separation power of CE with the selectivity of the probe to the target molecule. The assays can be defined according to the type of probe used: CE immunoassays, with an antibody as the probe, or aptamer-based CE, with an aptamer as the probe. Immunoassays are generally divided into homogeneous and heterogeneous groups, and homogeneous variant can be further performed in competitive or noncompetitive formats. Interacting partners are free in solution at homogeneous assay, as opposed to heterogeneous analyses, where one of them is immobilized onto a solid support. Highly sensitive fluorescence, chemiluminescence or electrochemical detections were typically used in this type of study. The use of the aptamers as probes has several advantages over antibodies such as shorter generation time, higher thermal stability, lower price, and lower variability. The aptamer-based CE technique was in practice utilized for the determination of proteins in biological fluids and environmentally or clinically important small molecules. Both techniques were also transferred to microchip. This review is focused on theoretical principles of these techniques and a summary of their applications in research.

Abstract
Fluoroquinolone antibiotics (FQs), a new class of pollutants that seriously threaten human health through environmental and food residues, have aroused wide public concern. However, little attention has been paid to the potential toxicity of FQs' metal complex. Here, we firstly explore the proof-of-concept study of FQs' metal complex to bind bovine serum albumin (BSA) using systematical spectroscopic approaches. In detail, we have found that the complex of Al3+ with gatifloxacin (Al(III)-GFLX complex) can effectively bind to BSA via electrostatic interaction in PBS buffer (pH = 7.4, 1×), resulting in the formation of Al(III)-GFLX-BSA complex. The negative value of ΔG shows that the binding of Al(III)-GFLX complex to BSA is a spontaneous process. Circular dichroism spectra verify that Al(III)-GFLX complex effectively triggers the conformation changes of BSA's secondary structure. It has been proved that the interaction of small molecule with serum albumin has a significant effect on their in vivo biological effects such as absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion, and etc. Therefore, the results of this paper may offer a valuable theoretical basis for establishing safety standards of FQs' metal complex to ensure food and environmental health.

Abstract
In the last years, the European Commission has adopted restrictive directives on food quality and safety in order to protect animal and human health. Veterinary drugs represent an important risk and the need to have sensitive and fast analytical techniques to detect and quantify them has become mandatory. Over the years, the availability of different modes, interfaces, and formats has improved the versatility, sensitivity, and speed of capillary electrophoresis (CE) techniques. Thus, CE represents a powerful tool for the analysis of a large variety of food matrices and food-related molecules with important applications in food quality and safety. This review focuses the attention of CE applications over the last decade on the detection of different classes of drugs (used as additives in animal food or present as contaminants in food products) with a potential risk for animal and human health. In addition, considering that the different sample preparation procedures have strongly contributed to CE sensitivity and versatility, the most advanced sample pre-concentration techniques are discussed here.

Abstract
An ultrasensitive microchip electrophoresis chemiluminescence (MCE-CL) assay platform based on separation assisted cascade signal amplification was developed for detection of trace biomolecules. In this work, the aptamer was used as a target probe to bind target molecule and triggering cascade signal amplification reaction. The horseradish peroxide labeled DNA (HRP-DNA) was used as signal probe, utilizing nucleic acid hybridization and exonuclease cutting technology realized ultrasensitive detection of biomolecules on the MCE-CL assay platform. Taking gamma interferon (IFN-γ) as a model analyte, the linear range for IFN-γ detection is 8.0 × 10-15-1.0 × 10-8 M, the detection limit is 1.6 fM, which is six orders magnitude lower than that of without signal amplification. The proposed method was successfully applied for the quantification of IFN-γ in human plasma samples. It was demonstrated that the MCE-CL assay platform was quick, sensitive, and highly selective. It may serve as a tool for clinical analysis of IFN-γ to assist in the diagnosis of disease.

Electrochemical aptasensor for sulfadimethoxine detection based on the triggered cleavage activity of nuclease P1 by aptamer-target complex. Talanta 2019; 204:409-414. [PMID: 31357313 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2019.06.035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2019] [Revised: 06/06/2019] [Accepted: 06/09/2019] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Herein, a simple and selective electrochemical method was developed for sulfadimethoxine detection based on the triggered cleavage activity of nuclease P1 by the formation of aptamer and sulfadimethoxine conjugate. After probe DNA was immobilized on gold electrode surface, aptamer DNA labeled with biotin at its 5'-terminal was then captured on electrode surface through the hybridization reaction between probe DNA and aptamer DNA. The formed double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) can block the digestion activity of Nuclease P1 towards the single-stranded probe DNA. Then, the anti-dsDNA antibody was further modified on electrode surface based on the specific interaction between dsDNA and antibody. Due to the electrostatic repulsion effect and steric-hindrance effect, a weak electrochemical signal was obtained at this electrode. However, in the presence of sulfadimethoxine, it can interact with aptamer DNA, and then the formation of dsDNA can be blocked. As a result, the probe DNA at its single-strand state can be digested by Nuclease P1, which leads to the failure of the immobilization of anti-dsDNA antibody. At this state, a strong electrochemical signal was obtained. Based on the change of the electrochemical signal, sulfadimethoxine can be detected with linear range of 0.1-500 nmol/L. The detection limit was 0.038 nmol/L. The developed method possesses high detection selectivity and sensitivity. The applicability of this method was also proved by detecting sulfadimethoxine in veterinary drug and milk with satisfactory results.
