[PMID: 39003863 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.140354] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2024] [Revised: 06/30/2024] [Accepted: 07/03/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
A novel superparamagnetic photonic crystal DNA probe (Fe3O4@SiO2@amino@DNA SPC) was developed to enable rapid visual detection of Hg2+. This unique photonic crystal (PC) was synthesized by combining superparamagnetic nanospheres with DNA probes. The DNA probe, rich in thymine (T), detects mercury ions through base mismatch, resulting in the formation of T-Hg2+-T loop hairpin structures. With the binding of Hg2+ to the probe attached to superparamagnetic nanospheres, the PC structure assembled by these nanospheres, formed by the magnetic field, was changed. This change enhanced the reflection intensity; it could be quantified using a fiber optic spectrometer and was visible to the naked eye. The Fe3O4@SiO2@amino@DNA SPC, specific to Hg2+, exhibited a reflection peak at 679 nm, which intensified with increasing Hg2+ concentration. The reflection intensity increased by 132.58 a.u., and the PC color shifted from red to yellow as the Hg2+ concentration increased from 0.1 μg/L to 1 mg/L.

Abstract
The development of label-free and sensitive detection of pathogenic bacteria is of great significance for disease prevention and public health protection. In this study, an originally bent structure, named as J-shaped optical fiber probe, was first designed to engineer a localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) aptamer biosensor for the rapid and ultrasensitive detection of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). The J-shaped optical fiber probe exhibited a significant improvement in refractive index sensitivity (RIS) and LSPR signal response. Meantime, the original sequence of aptamer was truncated in order to effectively capture H. pylori on the optical fiber surface. Besides, a spacer nucleic acid with short stem-loop structure was adopted to control the aptamer density on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) on the surface of the J-shaped optical fiber probe, which displayed a further enhancement in LSPR signal response. Benefitting from these creative designs, the proposed LSPR biosensor can realize label-free and sensitive detection of H. pylori with a detection limit as low as 45 CFU/mL and a wide linear range from 1.0 × 102 CFU/mL to 1.0 × 108 CFU/mL. At the same time, the sensing strategy can detect the pathogenic bacteria from actual water samples in one step just in 30 min without any sample pretreatment. Due to the advantages of ease-to-preparation, high sensitivity, and rapid analysis, this proposed J-shaped optical fiber LSPR aptasensor can provide a potential strategy for point-of-caring detection of pathogenic bacteria in environmental monitoring and disease diagnosis.

Abstract
The quest to enhance Raman spectroscopic signals through the rational design of plasmonic substrates has enabled the detection and characterization of pharmaceutically important molecules with low scattering cross-sections, such as amino acids and proteins, and is helping in making forays into the diverse field of biomedical sciences. This work presents a simple strategy for synthesizing silver nanoparticles-incorporated alumina nanofibers (Ag-AlNFs) utilizing controlled microwave synthesis for enhancing the surface-enhanced Raman chemical enhancement factor through photo-induced charge accumulation at the plasmonic-dielectric interface. The plasmonic-dielectric fibers serve as excellent charge carrier trappers, as evident from the ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy studies. Apart from chemical enhancement, the increase in electronic surface charge also enables the protein disulfide bonds to capture these electrons and form a transient disulfide electron adduct radical, which converts to free thiol radical on dissociation. This allows protein molecules to bind to the nanoparticle's surface with the favorable silver thiol bond leading to greater surface affinity and larger SERS enhancement. The proposed Ag-AlNFs represent a cost-effective material that can be potentially used to probe biological systems in a label-free manner by photoactivating the SERS substrate for obtaining higher enhancement factors.

Abstract
The development of rapid, simple, and accurate bioassays for the detection of nucleic acids has received increasing demand in recent years. Here, localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) spectroscopy for the detection of an antimicrobial resistance gene, sulfhydryl variable β-lactamase (blaSHV), which confers resistance against a broad spectrum of β-lactam antibiotics is used. By performing limit of detection experiments, a 23 nucleotide (nt) long deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequence down to 25 nm was detected, whereby the signal intensity is inversely correlated with sequence length (23, 43, 63, and 100 nt). In addition to endpoint measurements of hybridization events, the setup also allowed to monitor the hybridization events in real-time, and consequently enabled to extract kinetic parameters of the studied binding reaction. Performing LSPR measurements using single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variants of blaSHV revealed that these sequences can be distinguished from the fully complementary sequence. The possibility to distinguish such sequences is of utmost importance in clinical environments, as it allows to identify mutations essential for enzyme function and thus, is crucial for the correct treatment with antibiotics. Taken together, this system provides a robust, label-free, and cost-efficient analytical tool for the detection of nucleic acids and will enable the surveillance of antimicrobial resistance determinants.

Abstract
The excessive use of pesticides and drugs, coupled with environmental pollution, has resulted in the persistence of contaminants on food. These pollutants tend to accumulate in humans through the food chain, posing a significant threat to human health. Therefore, it is crucial to develop rapid, low-cost, portable, and on-site biosensors for detecting food contaminants. Among various biosensors, polymer-based biosensors have emerged as promising probes for detection of food contaminants in recent years, due to their various functions such as target binding, enrichment, and simple signal reading. This paper aims to discuss the characteristics of five types of food pollutants-heavy metals, pesticide residues, pathogenic bacteria, allergens, and antibiotics-and their adverse effects on human health. Additionally, this paper focuses on the principle of polymer-based biosensors and their latest applications in detecting these five types of food contaminants in actual food samples. Furthermore, this review briefly examines the future prospects and challenges of biosensors for food safety detection. The insights provided in this review will facilitate the development of biosensors for food safety detection.

Abstract
Fiber-optic biosensors based on localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) have the advantages of great biocompatibility, label-free, strong stability, and real-time monitoring of various analytes. LSPR fiber-optic biosensors have attracted extensive research attention in the fields of environmental science, clinical medicine, disease diagnosis, and food safety. The latest development of LSPR fiber-optic biosensors in recent years has focused on the detection of clinical disease markers and the detection of various toxic substances in the environment and the progress of new sensitization mechanisms in LSPR fiber-optic sensors. Therefore, this paper reviews the LSPR fiber-optic sensors from the aspects of working principle, structure, and application fields in biosensors. According to the structure, the sensor can be divided into three categories: traditional ordinary optical fiber, special shape optical fiber, and specialty optical fiber. The advantages and disadvantages of existing and future LSPR fiber-optic biosensors are discussed in detail. Additionally, the prospect of future development of fiber-optic biosensors based on LSPR is addressed.

Abstract
The correct detection and quantification of pollutants in water is key to regulating their presence in the environment. Biosensors offer several advantages, such as minimal sample preparation, short measurement times, high specificity and sensibility and low detection limits. The purpose of this review is to explore the different types of optical biosensors, focusing on their biological elements and their principle of operation, as well as recent applications in the detection of pollutants in water. According to our literature review, 33% of the publications used fluorescence-based biosensors, followed by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) with 28%. So far, SPR biosensors have achieved the best results in terms of detection limits. Although less common (22%), interferometers and resonators (4%) are also highly promising due to the low detection limits that can be reached using these techniques. In terms of biological recognition elements, 43% of the published works focused on antibodies due to their high affinity and stability, although they could be replaced with molecularly imprinted polymers. This review offers a unique compilation of the most recent work in the specific area of optical biosensing for water monitoring, focusing on both the biological element and the transducer used, as well as the type of target contaminant. Recent technological advances are discussed.

Abstract
This study demonstrates a novel fiber optic sensing strategy for selective adsorption and rapid detection of Cr(VI) ions by exploiting a suitable metal-organic framework matrix and the characteristic spectral absorption of Cr(VI) at 395 nm wavelength, respectively. U-bent fiber optic sensor (U-FOS) probes that exhibit remarkably high evanescent wave-based absorbance sensitivity were employed to efficiently detect the Cr(VI) ions that are adsorbed to a stable zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-67) matrix immobilized on the probe surface. A facile technique was developed for the fabrication of ZIF-67-coated U-FOS probes (FOS/ZIF-67) involving an in situ deposition process followed by heat treatment. Selectivity of the FOS/ZIF-67 probes to Cr(VI) was confirmed by optical absorption spectral investigations with 14 other heavy metals and interfering ions. The sensor performance was evaluated with a compact light-emitting diode-photodetector-based setup. FOS/ZIF-67 probes demonstrate an ability to detect Cr(VI) ions with a limit of detection of 1 ppb and a wide linear dynamic range from 0.005 to 100 ppm within a short response time of 5 to 10 min. These sensors show good recovery rates with real water samples and a shelf-life of at least 4 weeks under ambient conditions, thereby demonstrating their viability for real-world application.

Abstract
An optical fiber surface plasma resonance (SPR) sensor with MMF-TCF-MMF structure was designed to realize intelligent recognition of copper ions (Cu2+), and the selective adsorption sensitization was achieved by plating a layer of Cu2+-imprinted film on the surface of gold film excitation layer. Combining the principle of optical fiber interference and SPR, the proposed sensor realized the detection of the copper ions concentration through measuring the refractive index changes caused by ions adsorption on imprinted film. The Cu2+-imprinted optical fiber SPR sensor can realize the intelligent recognition and detection of copper ions in the complex environment and exhibits a detection sensitivity of -10.05 pm/ppm. The proposed sensor has tremendous development potential in practical application, and provides new ideas for the field of metal ions detection.

A review of Optical Point-of-Care devices to Estimate the Technology Transfer of These Cutting-Edge Technologies. BIOSENSORS 2022; 12:bios12121091. [PMID: 36551058 PMCID: PMC9776401 DOI: 10.3390/bios12121091] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2022] [Revised: 11/12/2022] [Accepted: 11/18/2022] [Indexed: 06/07/2023]
Abstract
Despite the remarkable development related to Point-of-Care devices based on optical technology, their difficulties when used outside of research laboratories are notable. In this sense, it would be interesting to ask ourselves what the degree of transferability of the research work to the market is, for example, by analysing the relation between the scientific work developed and the registered one, through patent. In this work, we provide an overview of the state-of-the-art in the sector of optical Point-of-Care devices, not only in the research area but also regarding their transfer to market. To this end, we explored a methodology for searching articles and patents to obtain an indicator that relates to both. This figure of merit to estimate this transfer is based on classifying the relevant research articles in the area and the patents that have been generated from these ones. To delimit the scope of this study, we researched the results of a large enough number of publications in the period from 2015 to 2020, by using keywords "biosensor", "optic", and "device" to obtain the most representative articles from Web of Science and Scopus. Then, we classified them according to a particular classification of the optical PoC devices. Once we had this sampling frame, we defined a patent search strategy to cross-link the article with a registered patent (by surfing Google Patents) and classified them accordingly to the categories described. Finally, we proposed a relative figure called Index of Technology Transference (IoTT), which estimates to what extent our findings in science materialized in published articles are protected by patent.

Abstract
Biomass and biowastes stand as sustainable and cost-effective environmentally benign alternative feedstock. Chitosan is a biocompatible, bioactive, and biodegradable biopolymer derived from chitin to achieve eight aspects out of the 12 green chemistry principles. Chitosan got significant attention in several fields including chemical analysis, in addition to chemical functionally, which enabled its use as adsorbent and its structural crosslinking using various crosslinkers. The physicochemical, technological, and optical properties of chitosan have been extensively exploited in analysis. Mainly, deacetylation degree and molecular weight are controlling its properties and hence controlling its functions. This review presents a structure, properties, and functions relationships of chitosan. It also aims to provide an overview of the different functions that chitosan can serve in each analytical technique such as supporting matrix, catalyst…etc. The contribution of chitosan in improving the ecological performance is discussed in each technique.

Abstract
Environmental pollution with cadmium (Cd) is a major concern worldwide, with prolonged exposure to this toxic heavy metal causing serious health problems, such as kidney damage, cancer, or cardiovascular diseases, only to mention a few. Herein, a gold-coated reflection-type fiber optic--surface plasmon resonance (Au-coated FO-SPR) sensor is manufactured and functionalized with (i) bovine serum albumin (BSA), (ii) chitosan, and (iii) polyaniline (PANI), respectively, for the sensitive detection of cadmium ions (Cd2+) in water. Then, the three sensor functionalization strategies are evaluated and compared one at a time. Out of these strategies, the BSA-functionalized FO-SPR sensor is found to be highly sensitive, exhibiting a limit of detection (LOD) for Cd2+ detection at nM level. Moreover, the presence of Cd2+ on the FO-SPR sensor surface was confirmed by the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) technique and also quantified consecutively for all the above-mentioned functionalization strategies. Hence, the BSA-functionalized FO-SPR sensor is sensitive, provides a rapid detection time, and is cheap and portable, with potential applicability for monitoring trace-level amounts of Cd within environmental or potable water.

Abstract
Phytopathogenic bacteria cause severe economic losses in agricultural production worldwide. The spread rates, severity, and emerging plant bacterial diseases have become serious threat to the sustainability of food sources and the fruit industry. Detection and diagnosis of plant diseases are imperative in order to manage plant diseases in field conditions, greenhouses, and food storage conditions as well as to maximize agricultural productivity and sustainability. To date, various techniques including, serological, observation-based, and molecular methods have been employed for plant disease detection. These methods are sensitive and specific for genetic identification of bacteria. However, these methods are specific for genetic identification of bacteria. Currently, the innovative biosensor-based disease detection technique is an attractive and promising alternative. A biosensor system involves biological recognition and transducer active receptors based on sensors used in plant-bacteria diagnosis. This system has been broadly used for the rapid diagnosis of plant bacterial pathogens. In the present review, we have discussed the conventional methods of bacterial-disease detection, however, the present review mainly focuses on the applications of different biosensor-based techniques along with point-of-care (POC), robotics, and cell phone-based systems. In addition, we have also discussed the challenges and limitations of these techniques.

Abstract
Highly sensitive detection of refractive index (RI) is essential for the analysis of the bio-microenvironment and basic cellular reactions. To achieve this, optic-fiber RI sensors based on localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) have been widely used for their flexibility and high sensitivity. However, the current optic-fiber RI sensors are mainly fabricated using glass, which makes them face the challenges in biocompatibility and biosafety. In this work, a RI sensor with high sensitivity is fabricated using metal-nanostructure-decorated spider silk. The spider silk, which is directly dragged from Araneus ventricosus, is natural protein-based biopolymer with low attenuation, good biocompatibility and biodegradability, large RI, great flexibility, and easy functionalization. Hence, the spider silk can be an ideal alternative to glass for sensing in biological environments with a wide RI range. Different kinds of metal nanostructures, such as gold nanorods (GNRs), gold nanobipyramids (GNBP), and Ag@GNRs, are decorated on the surface of the spider silk utilizing the surface viscidity of the silk. By directing a beam of white light into the spider silk, the LSPR of the metal nanostructures was excited and a highly sensitive RI sensing (the highest sensitivity of 1746 nm per refractive index was achieved on the GNBP-decorated spider silk) was obtained. This work may pave a new way to precise and sensitive biosensing and bioanalysis.

Abstract
Marine waters are becoming contaminated by diverse pollutants at a fast rate, and detection of these water pollutants has become a major concern in recent years. Among these, mercury is considered the most toxic element for human health. At present, despite the commonly used methods for its detection are accurate, they often require sophisticated equipments, have relatively high costs, are demanding and time-consuming. Herein a novel solution to detect mercury (II) pollution in sea water is proposed, and an easy and portable detection method has been developed. Indeed, a hydrophobin based chimera able to both adhere to polystyrene multiwell plates and bind mercury (II) with a consequent fluorescent decrease was designed. The chimera was the recognition element in a fluorescence-based biosensor able to detect mercury (II) in the nM range. Indeed, this biosensor specifically measure Hg2+ concentration also in the presence of other metals, reaching a limit of detection of 0.4 nM in tap water and 0.3 nM in sea water. Moreover, the developed biosensor was coupled to machine learning methodologies with the big advantage of predicting mercury concentration levels without the use of classical reader devices, thus allowing in situ monitoring of sea pollution by non-skilled personnel.

Abstract
Abstract
The perpetual exposure of several manmade materials and their activities such as urbanization, industrialization, transportation, mining, construction, petroleum refining, manufacturing, preservatives, disinfectants etc., release various pollutants like organic, inorganic, and heavy metals which pollute the air, water, and soil. This poses various environmental issues which are relevant to the ecosystem and human wellbeing that intensify the implementation of new expedient treatment technologies. Likewise, phenolic and heavy metal pollutants find their way into the environment. These phenolic and heavy metals are toxic to the liver, heart and carcinogenic. Therefore, the removal of these kinds of pollutants from the environment is a highly challenging issue. As conventional treatment technologies have consequent drawbacks, new interests have been developed to remediate and remove pollutants from the ecosystem using metal nanoparticles (MPNs). To date, many researchers all over the world have been investigating novel approaches to enhance various remediation application technologies. One such approach that the researchers are constantly showing interest in is the use of nanomaterials with potential applications towards the environment. In this regard, MPNs like Copper (Cu), Nickel (Ni), Palladium (Pd), Gold (Au), Silver (Ag), Platinum (Pt), Titanium (Ti), and other nano metals are serving as a suitable agent to eliminate emerging contaminants in various fields, particularly in the removal of phenolic and heavy metal pollutants. This chapter discusses the mechanism and application of various MPNs in eliminating various phenolic and heavy metal pollutants from the environment.

Abstract
Au@Se core-shell nanoparticles were obtained via laser ablation technique to be incorporated into polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibrous scaffolds for wound healing applications at different contributions of Se nanoparticles (SeNPs). The synthesized layers were inspected via X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transformed infrared (FTIR). Additionally, microstructural and surface morphology were followed with different SeNPs contributions before and after fibroblast culturing. Moreover, Selenium dopant is affected Maximum roughness valley depth while it starts from 0.31 µm at Au@0.0Se@PCL reaching 0.457 µm at Au@12Se@PCL; however, after culturing starts from 0.3833 µm reaching 0.41 µm. Besides, the antibacterial activity was screened, showing the absence of inhibition zones in free selenium composition; however, it grows up reaching 8.3 ± 0.8, and 8.0 ± 0.8 for E. coli and S. aureus, respectively at the maximum contribution of selenium. SeNPs contributed composites show higher cell viability than Selenium free composite that it reaches its max in Au@8.0Se@PCL, recording 95.3 ± 2.3%. Composites show an excellent Wound dressing capability that its performance is directly proportional to selenium content. This significant enrichment of antibacterial activity and cell viability could recommend these composites for additional research in medical applications.

Herein, we report recent developments in order to explore chitin and chitosan derivatives for energy-related applications. This review summarizes an introduction to common polysaccharides such as cellulose, chitin or chitosan, and their connection with carbon nanomaterials (CNMs), such as bio-nanocomposites. Furthermore, we present their structural analysis followed by the fabrication of graphene-based nanocomposites. In addition, we demonstrate the role of these chitin- and chitosan-derived nanocomposites for energetic applications, including biosensors, batteries, fuel cells, supercapacitors and solar cell systems. Finally, current limitations and future application perspectives are entailed as well. This study establishes the impact of chitin- and chitosan-generated nanomaterials for potential, unexplored industrial applications.

Abstract
Pollution of water linked to microbial decontamination and extensive use of sodium chlorite (NaClO2) as a disinfectant, especially in the face of the current COVID-19 situation, is a serious water pollution issue that needs to be addressed. In this context, an environmentally friendly and cost-effective method has been developed for the biomimetic synthesis of Ag nanospheres (Ag NSs) using aqueous extract of Piper nigrum for the detection of chlorite (ClO2-) and mercury (Hg2+) ions. The strong antioxidant properties of the biomolecules present in the Piper nigrum extract reduce silver ions (Ag+) to Ag0. After optimization of the formulation parameters, it was observed that 1 mL of piper nigrum extract was sufficient to reduce and stabilize 100 mL of 1.5 mM of Ag+ in 2.5 h at 30 °C. X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of Ag NSs revealed their crystalline nature and the characteristic Bragg's diffraction peaks confirmed their face cubic crystal (FCC) lattice. The characteristic reddish-brown color and absorption surface plasmon resonance (SPR) band at 435 nm confirmed the successful fabrication of Ag NSs. Kinetic analysis revealed a three-phase growth pattern involving nucleation, growth and stabilization. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) micrograms, showed spherical NSs with narrow polydispersity with particle size ranging from 10 to 30 nm. The synthesized NSs were exposed to various metal ions and anions. The absorption intensity of Ag NSs quenched in the presence of mercury ions (Hg2+) among the cations and Chlorite ions (ClO2-) among the anions. The limit of detection (LOD) of 7.47 μM and 1.11 μM was evaluated from the calibration curve for Hg2+ and ClO2-, respectively. Based on these promising results, it is suggested that the method reported is a low-cost and one step biogenic protocol for the synthesis of Ag NSs and their employment for the detection of Hg2+ and ClO2-ions.

Abstract
In recent years, the interaction between light and metallic films have been proven to be a highly powerful tool for optical sensing applications. We have witnessed the development of highly sensitive commercial devices based on Surface Plasmon Resonances. There has been continuous effort to integrate this plasmonic sensing technology using micro and nanofabrication techniques with the optical fiber sensor world, trying to get better, smaller and cost-effective high performance sensing solutions. In this work, we present a review of the latest and more relevant scientific contributions to the optical fiber sensors field using plasmonic materials over the last decade. The combination of optical fiber technology with metallic micro and nanostructures that allow plasmonic interactions have opened a complete new and promising field of study. We review the main advances in the integration of such metallic micro/nanostructures onto the optical fibers, discuss the most promising fabrication techniques and show the new trends in physical, chemical and biological sensing applications.

Abstract
Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) are among the most common and powerful label-free refractive index-based biosensing techniques available nowadays. Focusing on LSPR sensors, their performance is highly dependent on the size, shape, and nature of the nanomaterial employed. Indeed, the tailoring of those parameters allows the development of LSPR sensors with a tunable wavelength range between the ultra-violet (UV) and near infra-red (NIR). Furthermore, dealing with LSPR along optical fiber technology, with their low attenuation coefficients at NIR, allow for the possibility to create ultra-sensitive and long-range sensing networks to be deployed in a variety of both biological and chemical sensors. This work provides a detailed review of the key science underpinning such systems as well as recent progress in the development of several LSPR-based biosensors in the NIR wavelengths, including an overview of the LSPR phenomena along recent developments in the field of nanomaterials and nanostructure development towards NIR sensing. The review ends with a consideration of key advances in terms of nanostructure characteristics for LSPR sensing and prospects for future research and advances in this field.

Abstract
The transmissive optical fiber localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) sensor has become an effective tool in refractive index sensing because of its compact structure, high sensitivity and strong designability. However, its special structure with the sensing region in the middle of the optical fiber leads to the shortcomings of difficult preparation and poor reproducibility, which greatly restricts its application scopes. In order to solve such problem, we design gold nanoparticle (AuNP)-based fusion spliced transmissive optical fiber LSPR probes, which are fabricated via the fusion splicing between the surface modified combination tapered optical fiber and another multimode quartz optical fiber but are totally different from other fabrications of the reported transmissive optical fiber LSPR probes. The fiber probe fabrication is rather simple and cost-effective, only relying on the procedures of combination tapered optical fiber preparation, surface modification and probe fusion splicing, and except for the probe fusion splicing, the other procedures can be mass prepared thus maintaining high efficiency and good reproducibility in fiber probe fabrications. Moreover, according to the experimental verifications, the proposed fiber probes can reach rather high sensitivity in refractive index sensing with high accuracy and good stability in both static and dynamic detecting modes. Therefore, the AuNP-based fusion spliced transmissive optical fiber LSPR probe is a preferred solution for refractive index sensing and can be widely used in various applications.

Abstract
Mercury ion (Hg2+) is considered to be one of the most toxic heavy metal ions. Once the content of Hg2+ exceeds the quality standard in drinking water, the living environment and health of human beings will be threatened and destroyed. Therefore, the establishment of simple and efficient methods for Hg2+ ion detection has important practical significance. In this paper, we present a highly sensitive and selective fiber-optic surface plasmon resonance (SPR) Hg2+ ion chemical nanosensor by designing thymine (T)-modified gold nanoparticles (Au NPs/T) as the signal amplification tags. Thymine-1-acetic acid (T-COOH) was covalently coupled to the surface of 2-aminoethanethiol (AET)-modified Au NPs and Au film by 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride/N-Hydroxysuccinimide (EDC/NHS) activation effect, respectively. In the presence of Hg2+ ions, the immobilized thymine combines specifically with Hg2+ ions, and forms an Au/thymine-Hg2+-thymine/Au (Au/T-Hg2+-T/Au) complex structure, leading to a shift in SPR wavelength due to the strong electromagnetic couple between Au NPs and Au film. Under optimal conditions, the proposed sensor was found to be highly sensitive to Hg2+ in the range of 80 nM–20 µM and the limit of detection (LOD) for Hg2+ was as low as 9.98 nM. This fiber-optic SPR sensor afforded excellent selectivity for Hg2+ ions against other heavy metal ions such as Fe3+, Cu2+, Ni2+, Ba2+, K+, Na+, Pb2+, Co2+, and Zn2+. In addition, the proposed sensor was successfully applied to Hg2+ assay in real environmental samples with excellent recovery. Accordingly, considering its simple advantages, this novel strategy provides a potential platform for on-site determination of Hg2+ ions by SPR sensor.

Abstract
A novel fiber-optic Mach-Zehnder interferometer based on SnO2, MoS2, SnO2/MoS2, and SnO2-MoS2 sensing film for cadmium-ion (Cd2+) detection is proposed and fabricated. The photonic-crystal fiber (PCF) is sandwiched between the no-core-fiber-1 (NCF1) and no-core-fiber-2 (NCF2), forming the Mach-Zehnder interferometer with the NCF1-PCF-NCF2 structure, which is regarded as the sensing unit. The SnO2, MoS2, SnO2/MoS2, and SnO2-MoS2 sensing films are, respectively, coated on the surface of two NCFs' claddings. The comparative experiment results of the sensors with four membranes (SnO2, MoS2, SnO2/MoS2, SnO2-MoS2) show that the sensors have good sensing performance for Cd2+ in the concentration range of 0-100 µM. When these sensing films adsorbed Cd2+, the monitoring wavelength shows blueshift of 0.6931 nm, 1.0252 nm, 1.9505 nm, respectively, and redshift of 3.0258 nm, and the sensitivities are 6.931 pm/µM, 10.252 pm/µM, 19.505 pm/µM, and 30.258 pm/µM, respectively. The sensor with SnO2-MoS2 bilayer film exhibits the optimal response to Cd2+ with excellent selectivity and stability. The proposed sensor has the advantages of simple structure, easy fabrication, small size, etc., having potential application in the monitoring of Cd2+ in aqueous solution.

Abstract
Plant diseases significantly impact the global economy, and plant pathogenic microorganisms such as nematodes, viruses, bacteria, fungi, and viroids may be the etiology for most infectious diseases. In agriculture, the development of disease-free plants is an important strategy for the determination of the survival and productivity of plants in the field. This article reviews biosensor methods of disease detection that have been used effectively in other fields, and these methods could possibly transform the production methods of the agricultural industry. The precise identification of plant pathogens assists in the assessment of effective management steps for minimization of production loss. The new plant pathogen detection methods include evaluation of signs of disease, detection of cultured organisms, or direct examination of contaminated tissues through molecular and serological techniques. Laboratory-based approaches are costly and time-consuming and require specialized skills. The conclusions of this review also indicate that there is an urgent need for the establishment of a reliable, fast, accurate, responsive, and cost-effective testing method for the detection of field plants at early stages of growth. We also summarized new emerging biosensor technologies, including isothermal amplification, detection of nanomaterials, paper-based techniques, robotics, and lab-on-a-chip analytical devices. However, these constitute novelty in the research and development of approaches for the early diagnosis of pathogens in sustainable agriculture.

Abstract
Three novel and facile calixarene derivatives (5, 6 and 7), which were appended with four rhodamine units at the upper rim of calixarene skeleton, were firstly prepared and evaluated for selective detection of metal ions in solution. Receptors (5) and (7) indicated immediate turn on fluorescence output toward Hg2+ ions over other most competitive metal ions with the ultralow detection limits, indicating their high efficiency and reliability. The binding response to Hg2+ ions in solution was also observed through a chromogenic change (from colorless to pale pink). Furthermore, in vitro and bio-imaging studies with MCF-7 or MIA PaCa-2 cell lines were also performed to investigate the use of receptors in biological systems in order to monitor of mercury ions. Results showed that new receptors (5) or (7) were cell permeable and suitable for real-time imaging of Hg2+ in living cells (MCF-7) or (MIA PaCa-2) without any damage to healthy cell lines (HEK 293).

Preparation of a Bombyx mori acetylcholinesterase enzyme reagent through chaperone protein disulfide isomerase co-expression strategy in Pichia pastoris for detection of pesticides. Enzyme Microb Technol 2020; 144:109741.

Abstract
The cholinesterase-based spectrophotometric methods for detection of organophosphate pesticides (OPs) and carbamate pesticides (CPs) have been proposed as a good choice for their high efficiency, simplicity and low cost. The enzyme, as a core reagent, is of great importance for the developed method. In this study, a protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) co-expression strategy in Pichia pastoris was employed to enhance the yield of recombinant Bombyx mori acetylcholinesterase 2 (rBmAChE2). Subsequently, the prepared enzyme reagent was used to detect the pesticides in real samples. The results showed that the co-expression of rBmAChE2 with PDI increased the enzyme activity of the supernatant and the yield of purified rBmAChE2 up to 60 U/mL and 6 mg/L respectively, both almost 5-fold higher than those of original recombinant strain. In addition, 5 g/L gelatin reagent could help to preserve nearly 90% of the rBmAChE2 activity for 90 days in 4°C and the limits of detections (LODs) of the rBmAChE2-based assay for 20 kinds of OPs or CPs ranged from 0.010 to 2.725 mg/kg, which were lower than most of indexes present in current Chinese National Standard (GB/T 5009.199-2003) or the maximum residue limits (GB 2763-2019). Furthermore, the detection results of 23 vegetable samples were verified by the ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method, which indicated that the rBmAChE2-based assay in this work is suitable for pesticide residues rapid detection.

Abstract
Drinking water resources are scarce and are gradually depleting throughout the world. Water contamination by heavy metals is making the situation worse because it makes water unsuitable for potable use. Heavy metals are hazardous to any aquatic ecosystem, as these adversely influence the food chain and consequently human health. In the present study, Curcuma longa-mediated silver nanoparticles (T-AgNPs)-based sensors are reported to detect heavy metals by naked-eye and ultraviolet (UV)-based methods. A sharp UV peak at 400 nm (C-AgNPs) and a broader peak at 440 nm (T-AgNPs) were recorded. Scanning electron microscopy revealed the spherically shaped morphology of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) with sizes of 30–50 nm (T-AgNPs) and 20–25 nm (C-AgNPs). The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy indicated that compounds containing functional groups (–C–H, >C=C<, >C=O) played an important role in the reduction and capping of the AgNPs. C-AgNPs (K2) after interaction with manganese (Mn) (II) ions led to the prominent deepening of the yellowish color. In contrast, biological AgNPs (K4) led to the formation of a prominent complex. Green-synthesized AgNPs allowed single-step, cost-effective, colorimetric detection of manganese (II) and mercury (Hg) (I) in the aqueous solution.

Abstract
Heavy metal pollution in marine environment poses a severe threat to the safety of marine products and is thus causing increasingly concerns in terms of their toxicity and potential health risks pose to human. Due to the complex matrix of marine products, a fast screening method for heavy metals at trace level with low price, reusability, high accuracy and long lifetime is of urgency and necessity for consumers and processing factories. This work described a simplified screening system through the preparation, characterization and particular application of Au nano particle sensor (AuNPS) in the complex marine matrix, the main aim is to significantly increase the stability, sensitivity and lifetime of detection system dedicated to Cu and Hg trace analysis in marine products. It is worth mentioning that, the proposed screening system was characterized through electrochemical experiments and theoretical calculations, which could be a new evidence for selecting the detection system in commercially complex samples. Importantly, the discipline of deposition and oxidative stripping process on AuNPS was explained based on the mechanism of Metal Ion Deficient Layer (MIDL), and illustrated with SEM changes during stripping process, as well as the dissolving-out rate of metals on AuNPS material. Moreover, to further improve the reusability and stability of AuNPS sensor, the complex marine matrix was purified by pre-plating interferences on indium tin oxide glass electrode. The screening system exhibited a liner response in the range of 0.02-0.10 μg mL-1 for Hg, 0.01-0.10 μg mL-1 and 0.001-0.01 μg mL-1 for Cu with the detection limits of 0.138 mg kg-1 and 1.51 mg kg-1 in marine matrix, respectively. The sensitivity and lifetime was at least two times better as compared to similar works even after 20-times use. Finally, this proposed analysis system combined with purification procedure was successfully applied for the edible and medicinal marine products analysis, meanwhile, the accuracy and stability were confirmed with standard analytical methods.

Abstract
In recent years, surface plasmon resonance devices (SPR, or named plamonics) have attracted much more attention because of their great prospects in breaking through the optical diffraction limit and developing new photons and sensing devices. At the same time, the combination of SPR and optical fiber promotes the development of the compact micro-probes with high-performance and the integration of fiber and planar waveguide. Different from the long-range SPR of planar metal nano-films, the local-SPR (LSPR) effect can be excited by incident light on the surface of nano-scaled metal particles, resulting in local enhanced light field, i.e., optical hot spot. Metal nano-particles-modified optical fiber LSPR sensor has high sensitivity and compact structure, which can realize the real-time monitoring of physical parameters, environmental parameters (temperature, humidity), and biochemical molecules (pH value, gas-liquid concentration, protein molecules, viruses). In this paper, both fabrication and application of the metal nano-particles modified optical fiber LSPR sensor probe are reviewed, and its future development is predicted.

Abstract
Aptameric graphene-based field-effect transistors (A-GFETs) always employ linkers, which could immobilize on graphene through π-π stacking between contained pyrenyl groups and graphene, to anchor aptamers. Aptamer density is closely associated with the A-GFET sensitivity and determined by the linker density. Using known linker immobilization methods, the linker density is random, uncontrollable, and limited. In this work, we propose a novel linker immobilization method which can be used to effectively modulate the linker density using an electric field and further bridge the relationship between the linker density and the A-GFET sensitivity. Here, polar molecule 1-pyrenebutanoic acid succinimidyl ester (PASE) is used as a linker representative. In the electric field, PASE is arranged regularly with the electron-rich pyrenyl group forced toward graphene in the solution due to electrostatic repulsion, thereby making it possible to modulate the quantity of PASE molecules that could interact with graphene by tuning the electric field application and then realizing the regulation of the A-GFET sensitivity. Experimental results indicate that the limits of detection (LODs) of A-GFETs for detecting interleukin-6 (IL-6) and insulin can be significantly improved to be 618 and 766 fM, respectively, by applying an electric field at -0.3 V for 3 h during PASE immobilization.

Abstract
The incorporation of a proper sensing material towards the construction of high selectivity optical sensing devices is vital. Polysaccharides, such as chitosan and carrageenan, are among the bio-based sensing materials that are extensively employed due to their remarkable physicochemical attributes. This paper highlights the critical aspects of the design of suitable polysaccharides for the recognition of specific analytes through physical and chemical modifications of polysaccharide structure. Such modifications lead to the enhancement of physicochemical properties of polysaccharides and optical sensor performance. Chitosan and carrageenan are two materials that possess excellent features which are capable of sensing target analytes via various interactions. The interaction between polysaccharides and analytes is dependent on the availability of functional groups in their structure. The integration of polysaccharides with various optical sensing techniques further improves optical sensor performance. The application of polysaccharides as sensing materials in various optical sensing techniques is also highlighted, particularly for metal ion sensing.

Abstract
An optical fiber localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) sensor was proposed and experimentally demonstrated to detect Hg2+ ions by functionalizing the optical fiber surface with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and chitosan (CS)/poly acrylic acid (PAA) bilayers. A flame-brushing technology was proposed to post-process the polydimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride(PDDA)-templated nanoparticles, avoiding the aggregation of AuNPs and achieving well-dispersed AuNPs arrays. LSPR stimulated by the AuNPs is sensitive to changes in the refractive index induced by Hg2+ ions absorption on the CS/PAA bilayers. Experimental results demonstrated that the LSPR peak wavelength linearly shifts with the concentrations of Hg2+ ions from 1 to 30 μM with a sensitivity of around 0.51 nm/ppm. The sensor also exhibits good specificity and longtime stability.

Abstract
With the increasing demand of achieving comprehensive perception in every aspect of life, optical fibers have shown great potential in various applications due to their highly-sensitive, highly-integrated, flexible and real-time sensing capabilities. Among various sensing mechanisms, plasmonics based fiber-optic sensors provide remarkable sensitivity benefiting from their outstanding plasmon-matter interaction. Therefore, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and localized SPR (LSPR)-based hybrid fiber-optic sensors have captured intensive research attention. Conventionally, SPR- or LSPR-based hybrid fiber-optic sensors rely on the resonant electron oscillations of thin metallic films or metallic nanoparticles functionalized on fiber surfaces. Coupled with the new advances in functional nanomaterials as well as fiber structure design and fabrication in recent years, new solutions continue to emerge to further improve the fiber-optic plasmonic sensors' performances in terms of sensitivity, specificity and biocompatibility. For instance, 2D materials like graphene can enhance the surface plasmon intensity at the metallic film surface due to the plasmon-matter interaction. Two-dimensional (2D) morphology of transition metal oxides can be doped with abundant free electrons to facilitate intrinsic plasmonics in visible or near-infrared frequencies, realizing exceptional field confinement and high sensitivity detection of analyte molecules. Gold nanoparticles capped with macrocyclic supramolecules show excellent selectivity to target biomolecules and ultralow limits of detection. Moreover, specially designed microstructured optical fibers are able to achieve high birefringence that can suppress the output inaccuracy induced by polarization crosstalk and meanwhile deliver promising sensitivity. This review aims to reveal and explore the frontiers of such hybrid plasmonic fiber-optic platforms in various sensing applications.
