[PMID: 38823323 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126335] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2024] [Revised: 05/25/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/03/2024]
Abstract
Developing a simple, economical, sensitive, and selective method for label-free direct detection analytes is attractive, especially the strategies that could achieve signal amplification without complicated operations. Herein, a dual-fluorescence colorimetric nanoswitch sensing platform for label-free direct melamine (MEL) detection was established. We first explored the relationship between MEL-induced aggregation of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and size and determined the optimal size to be 37 nm. Using surfactant Triton X-100 to modify AuNPs and clarify possible interaction mechanisms to improve detection performance. The dynamic changes of surface plasmon resonance absorption peaks in the dispersed and aggregated states of AuNPs were skillfully utilized to match the emission of multicolor gold nanoclusters to trigger the multi-inner filter effect. Accompanied by the addition of MEL-induced AuNPs to change from dispersed to aggregated state, the fluorescence of green-emitting and red-emitting gradually turned on and turned off, respectively. The fluorescence turn-on mode detection limit was 10 times higher than the colorimetric method and as low as 5.5 ng/mL; the detection took only 10 min. The sensor detected MEL in spiked milk samples with a good recovery in the range of 81.2-111.0 % with a coefficient of variation less than 11.4 % and achieved a good correlation with commercial kits. The proposed sensor integrates numerous merits of label-free, multi-signal readout, self-calibration, simple operations, and economical, which provides a promising tool for convenient on-site detection of MEL.

Abstract
Dopamine (DA), a neurotransmitter, plays a crucial role in regulating motor functions and emotions and can serve as a marker for several diseases. In this study, we report a highly sensitive polydiacetylenes (PDA)-based dual-output sensor for dopamine detection in both solution and solid phases that was developed by modifying PDA liposomes with boronic acid groups at the termini. This sensor exploits the high affinity between the catechol residue of dopamine and the -B(OH)2 group of the PDA-based probe (PDA-PhBA) to form boronate ester bonds, causing a stress-induced blue-to-red color change along with a steady increase in fluorescence response at λmax 622 nm. The PDA-PhBA-based sensor displays high sensitivity toward dopamine with low limit of detection of 6.2 ppb in colorimetric analysis and 0.6 ppb in fluorimetric measurements, demonstrating its dual optical output ability. The sensor works well for adrenaline, another catecholamine, with similar efficacy. Its practical applicability was validated by the successful recovery of trace level dopamine in blood serum and real water samples. Additionally, immobilizing PDA-PhBA liposomes in sodium alginate produced PDA beads for the solid-phase detection of dopamine with an limit of detection (LOD) of 59 nM (9.0 ppb) in colorimetric detection using a smartphone for capturing images and ImageJ software for analysis.

Abstract
Biosensors are currently among the most commonly used devices for analysing biomarkers and play an important role in environmental detection, food safety, and disease diagnosis. Researchers have developed multimodal biosensors instead of single-modal biosensors to meet increasing sensitivity, accuracy, and stability requirements. Metal nanoparticles (MNPs) are beneficial for preparing core probes for multimodal biosensors because of their excellent physical and chemical properties, such as easy regulation and modification, and because they can integrate diverse sensing strategies. This review mainly summarizes the excellent physicochemical properties of MNPs applied as biosensing probes and the principles of commonly used MNP-based multimodal sensing strategies. Recent applications and possible improvements of multimodal biosensors based on MNPs are also described, among which on-site inspection and sensitive detection are particularly important. The current challenges and prospects for multimodal biosensors based on MNPs may provide readers with a new perspective on this field.

Abstract
Detection of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in liquid biopsy is of great importance for tumor diagnosis but difficult due to its low amount in bodily fluids. Herein, a novel ctDNA detection platform is established by quantifying DNA amplification by-product pyrophosphate (PPi) using a newly designed bivariable lanthanide metal-organic framework (Ln-MOF), namely, Ce/Eu-DPA MOF (CE-24, DPA = pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid). CE-24 MOF exhibits ultrafast dual-response (fluorescence enhancement and enzyme-activity inhibition) to PPi stimuli by virtue of host-guest interaction. The platform is applied to detecting colon carcinoma-related ctDNA (KARS G12D mutation) combined with the isothermal nucleic acid exponential amplification reaction (EXPAR). ctDNA triggers the generation of a large amount of PPi, and the ctDNA quantification is achieved through the ratio fluorescence/colorimetric dual-mode assay of PPi. The combination of the EXPAR and the dual-mode PPi sensing allows the ctDNA assay method to be low-cost, convenient, bioreaction-compatible (freedom from the interference of bioreaction systems), sensitive (limit of detection down to 101 fM), and suitable for on-site detection. To the best of our knowledge, this work is the first application of Ln-MOF for ctDNA detection, and it provides a novel universal strategy for the rapid detection of nucleic acid biomarkers in point-of-care scenarios.

Abstract
Determination of dopamine (DA) is crucial for its intimate relationship with clinical trials and biological environment. Herein, Fe, N co-doped carbon dots (AFC-CDs) were fabricated by optimizing precursors and reaction conditions for fluorimetric/colorimetric dual-mode sensing of DA. With synergistic influence of Förster resonance energy transfer and static quenching effect, DA significantly quenched the blue luminescence of AFC-CDs at 442 nm, the production of recognizable tan-brown complex caused evident colorimetric response, achieved the dual-mode fluorimetric/colorimetric sensing for DA. The excellent selectivity and satisfied sensitivity can be confirmed with the limit of detection at 0.29 μM and 2.31 μM via fluorimetric/colorimetric mode respectively. The reliability and practicability were proved by recovery of 94.81-101.61% in real samples. Notably, the proposed electron transfer way between AFC-CDs and DA was hypothesized logically, indicated dual-mode probe provided a promising platform for the sensing of trace DA, and could be expanded in environment and food safety.

Abstract
The traditional lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) with a single signal output mode may encounter challenges such as low sensitivity, poor detection range, and susceptibility to external interferences. These limitations hinder its ability to meet the growing demand for advanced LFIA. To address these issues, the rational development of multifunctional labels for multimodal LFIA emerges as a promising strategy. Herein, this study reports a multimodal LFIA using "four-in-one" multifunctional dandelion-like gold@platinum nanoparticles (MDGP). The inherent properties of MDGP, such as the broad absorption spectrum, porous dandelion-like nanostructure, and bimetallic composition with gold and platinum, endow them with capacities in dual spectral-overlapped fluorescence quenching, optical readout, catalytic activity, and photothermal effect. Benefiting from their multifunctional properties, the MDGP-LFIA enables multimodal outputs including fluorescent, colorimetric, and photothermal signals. This multimodal MDGP-LFIA allows for the detection of acetamiprid at a range of 0.01-50 ng mL-1, with the lowest qualitative and quantitative detection results of 0.5 and 0.008 ng mL-1, respectively, significantly better than the traditional gold nanoparticles-based LFIA. The diversity, complementarity, and synergistic effect of integrated output signals in this multimodal MDGP-LFIA improve the flexibility, practicability, and accuracy of detection, holding great promise as a point-of-care testing platform in versatile application scenarios.

Bridging biological and food monitoring: A colorimetric and fluorescent dual-mode sensor based on N-doped carbon dots for detection of pH and histamine. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 470:134271. [PMID: 38608593 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.134271] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2024] [Revised: 03/30/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024]
Abstract
Rapid and sensitive monitoring of pH and histamine is crucial for bridging biological and food systems and identifying corresponding abnormal situations. Herein, N-doped carbon dots (CDs) are fabricated by a hydrothermal method employing dipicolinic acid and o-phenylenediamine as precursors. The CDs exhibit colorimetric and fluorescent dual-mode responses to track pH and histamine variations in living cells and food freshness, respectively. The aggregation-induced emission enhancement and intramolecular charge transfer result in a decrease in absorbance and an increase in fluorescence, which become readily apparent as the pH changes from acidic to neutral. This property enables precise differentiation between normal and cancerous cells. Furthermore, given the intrinsic basicity of histamine, pH-responsive CDs are advantageous for additional colorimetric and fluorescent monitoring of histamine in food freshness, achieving linearities of 25-1000 µM and 30-1000 µM, respectively, which are broader than those of alternative nanoprobes. Interestingly, the smartphone-integrated sensing platform can portably and visually evaluate pH and histamine changes due to sensitive color changes. Therefore, the sensor not only establishes a dynamic connection between pH and histamine for the purposes of biological and food monitoring, but also presents a novel approach for developing a multifunctional biosensor that can accomplish environmental monitoring and biosensing simultaneously.

Abstract
Nanomaterials show great potential for applications in biosensing due to their unique physical, chemical, and biological properties. However, the single-modal signal sensing mechanism greatly limits the development of single-modal nanoprobes and their related sensors. Multi-modal nanoprobes can realize the output of fluorescence, colorimetric, electrochemical, and magnetic signals through composite nanomaterials, which can effectively compensate for the defects of single-modal nanoprobes. Following the multi-modal nanoprobes, multi-modal biosensors break through the performance limitation of the current single-modal signal and realize multi-modal signal reading. Herein, the current status and classification of multi-modal nanoprobes are provided. Moreover, the multi-modal signal sensing mechanisms and the working principle of multi-modal biosensing platforms are discussed in detail. We also focus on the applications in pharmaceutical detection, food and environmental fields. Finally, we highlight this field's challenges and development prospects to create potential enlightenment.

Abstract
Wearable devices have become prevalent in biomedical studies due to their convenient portability and potential utility in biomarker monitoring for healthcare. Accessing interstitial fluid (ISF) across the skin barrier, microneedle (MN) is a promising minimally invasive wearable technology for transdermal sensing and drug delivery. MN has the potential to overcome the limitations of conventional transdermal drug administration, making it another prospective mode of drug delivery after oral and injectable. Subsequently, combining MN with multiple sensing approaches has led to its extensive application to detect biomarkers in ISF. In this context, employing MN platforms and control schemes to merge diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities into theranostic systems will facilitate on-demand therapy and point-of-care diagnostics, paving the way for future MN technologies. A comprehensive analysis of the growing advances of microneedles in biomedical systems is presented in this review to summarize the latest studies for academics in the field and to offer for reference the issues that need to be addressed in MN application for healthcare. Covering an array of novel studies, we discuss the following main topics: classification of microneedles in the biomedical field, considerations of MN design, current applications of microneedles in diagnosis and therapy, and the regulatory landscape and prospects of microneedles for biomedical applications. This review sheds light on the significance of microneedle-based innovations, presenting an analysis of their potential implications and contributions to the community of wearable healthcare technologies. The review provides a comprehensive understanding of the field's current state and potential, making it a valuable resource for academics and clinicians seeking to harness the full potential of MN applications.

J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 653:1805-1816. [PMID: 37845127 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2023.10.055] [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: 07/24/2023] [Revised: 09/30/2023] [Accepted: 10/12/2023] [Indexed: 10/18/2023]
Abstract
BPA aptamers functionalized cerium oxide nanoparticles encapsulated in zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (CeO2@ZIF-8/Apt) were developed to fabricate an all-in-one portable platform for on-site quantitative detection of BPA. By combining biocomposites with a 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB)-based sodium alginate (SA) hydrogel and smartphone-based RGB analysis, highly sensitive and convenient monitoring of BPA was achieved. CeO2@ZIF-8 composites were constructed using a novel surfactant-modified concentration-controlled synthesis strategy. After being functionalized with BPA aptamers, CeO2@ZIF-8/Apt biocomposites were used as target-response colorimetric probes for target recognition and signal transduction. The oxidase-like activity of CeO2@ZIF-8 was effectively sealed by BPA aptamers and controllably released in a concentration-dependent manner through aptamer-BPA reactions. Utilizing SA hydrogels containing TMB in the caps, a one-step sample addition and one-pot detection can be conveniently achieved and reliably quantified by smartphone-based RGB analysis in an instrument-free way. The detection range of this portable detection platform is 50 pg/mL to 500 ng/mL with limit of detection calculated as 34.88 pg/mL, comparable to that of conventional detection in the solution system (4.57 pg/mL). The recoveries in tap water, apple juice, and milk ranged from 91.02 % and 106.75 %. This work contributes new insights into the design of all-in-one detection platforms for contaminants monitoring in resource-constrained regions.

Abstract
The quality of life of patients affected by Parkinson's disease is improved by medications containing levodopa and carbidopa, restoring the dopamine concentration in the brain. Accordingly, the affordable quality control of such pharmaceuticals is very important. Here is reported the simple and inexpensive colorimetric quantification of carbidopa in anti-Parkinson drugs by the selective condensation reaction between the hydrazine group from carbidopa and the formyl functional group of selected aldehydes in acidified hydroalcoholic solution. An optical assay was developed by using indole-3-carbaldehyde (I3A) giving a yellow aldazine in EtOH:H2O 1:1 (λmax~415 nm) at 70 °C for 4 h, as confirmed by LC-MS analysis. A filter-based plate reader was used for colorimetric data acquisition, providing superior results in terms of analytical performances for I3A, with a sensitivity ~50 L g-1 and LOD ~0.1 mg L-1 in comparison to a previous study based on vanillin, giving, for the same figures of merit values, about 13 L g-1 and 0.2-0.3 mg L-1, respectively. The calibration curves for the standard solution and drugs were almost superimposable, therefore excluding interference from the excipients and additives, with very good reproducibility (avRSD% 2-4%) within the linear dynamic range (10 mg L-1-50 mg L-1).

Abstract
Credible and on-site detection of organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) in complex matrixes is significant for food security and environmental monitoring. Herein, a novel COF/methylene blue@MnO2 (COF/MB@MnO2) composite featured abundant signal loading, a specific recognition unit, and robust oxidase-like activity was successfully prepared through facile assembly processes. The multifunctional composite acted as a homogeneous electrochemical and photothermal dual-mode sensing platform for OPs detection through stimuli-responsive regulation. Without the presence of OPs, the surface MnO2 coating could recognize thiocholine (TCh), originating from acetylcholinesterase (AChE)-catalyzed hydrolysis of acetylthiocholine (ATCh), and exhibited a distinctly amplified diffusion current due to the release of plentiful MB; while the residual MnO2 nanosheets could only catalyze less TMB into oxidized TMB (oxTMB) with a typical near-infrared (NIR) absorption, enabling NIR-driven photothermal assay with a low temperature using a portable thermometer. Based on the inhibitory effect of OPs on AChE activity and OP-regulated generation of TCh, chlorpyrifos as a model target can be accurately detected with a low limit of detection of 0.0632 and 0.108 ng/mL by complementary electrochemical and photothermal measurements, respectively. The present dual-mode sensor was demonstrated to be excellent for application to the reliable detection of OPs in complex environmental and food samples. This work can not only provide a complementary dual-mode method for convenient and on-site detection of OPs in different scenarios but also expand the application scope of the COF-based multifunctional composite in multimodal sensors.

Abstract
Reactive sulfur species (RSS) are emerging as a potential key gasotransmitter in diverse physiological processes linking two signaling molecules H2S and SO2. However, the exact roles of H2S and SO2 remain unclear. A major hurdle is the shortage of accurate and robust approaches for sensing of H2S and SO2 in biological systems. Herein, we report a reaction-mediated dual-recognition strategy-based nanosensor, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs)-loaded MIL-101 (Fe) (ALM) hybrids, for the simultaneous detection of H2S and SO2 in a living cell. Upon exposure to H2S, AgNPs can be oxidized to form Ag2S, causing a decrease of surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) signals of p,p'-dimercaptoazobenzene. Moreover, SO2 reacts with the amino moiety of MIL-101 to form charge-transfer complexes, resulting in an increment of fluorescent (FL) intensity. The ALM with dual-modal signals can simultaneously analyze H2S and SO2 at a concentration as low as 2.8 × 10-6 and 0.003 μM, respectively. Most importantly, the ALM sensing platform enables targeting mitochondria and detection multiple RSS simultaneously in living cells under external stimulation, as well as displays indiscernible crosstalk between SERS and FL signals, which is very beneficial for the comprehension of physiological issues related with RSS.

Abstract
Plasmonic nanomaterials have attracted great attention in the field of catalysis and sensing for their outstanding electrical and optical properties. Here, a representative type of nonstoichiometric Cu2-xSe nanoparticles with typical near-infrared (NIR) localized surface plasma resonance (LSPR) properties originating from their copper deficiency was applied to catalyze the oxidation of colorless TMB into their blue product in the presence of H2O2, indicating they had good peroxidase-like activity. However, glutathione (GSH) inhibited the catalytic oxidation of TMB, as it can consume the reactive oxygen species. Meanwhile, it can induce the reduction of Cu(II) in Cu2-xSe, resulting in a decrease in the degree of copper deficiency, which can lead to a reduction in the LSPR. Therefore, the catalytic ability and photothermal responses of Cu2-xSe were decreased. Thus, in our work, a colorimetric/photothermal dual-readout array was developed for the detection of GSH. The linear calibration for GSH concentration was in the range of 1-50 μM with the LOD as 0.13 μM and 50-800 μM with the LOD as 39.27 μM. To evaluate the practicability of the assay, tomatoes and cucumbers were selected as real samples, and good recoveries indicated that the developed assay had great potential in real applications.

Dual-mode immunochromatographic assay based on dendritic gold nanoparticles with superior fluorescence quenching for ultrasensitive detection of E. coli O157:H7. Food Chem 2023; 424:136366.

Abstract
We presented a colorimetric/fluorescent dual-mode immunochromatographic assay (ICA) for the sensitive detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7. The use of polydopamine (PDA)-modified gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with broadband absorption allowed for excellent colorimetry signals for the ICA detection. Moreover, the absorption spectrum of PDA-AuNPs significantly overlaps with the excitation and emission spectra of ZnCdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs), resulting in effective quenching of the QDs fluorescence due to the inner filter effect. The fluorescence intensity changes induced by PDA-AuNPs were utilized for the sensitive detection of E. coli O157:H7, achieving a detection limit of 9.06 × 101 CFU/mL, which was 46-fold lower than that of traditional AuNPs-based immunoassay. The proposed immunosensor exhibited the recovery rate between 80.12% and 114.69% in detecting actual samples, indicating its reliability and satisfactory accuracy. This study provides insights into dual-mode signal outputs and the ICA development for food safety applications.

Abstract
A highly sensitive and accurate dual-signal strategy is developed for trace Cu2+ detection based on the inner filter effect (IFE) between Tween 20-gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs). Tween 20-AuNPs are utilized as colorimetric probes and excellent fluorescent absorbers. The fluorescence of CdSe/ZnS QDs can be quenched efficiently by Tween 20-AuNPs via IFE. In the presence of D-penicillamine, D-penicillamine induces the aggregation of Tween 20-AuNPs and the fluorescent recovery of CdSe/ZnS QDs at high ionic strength. Upon addition of Cu2+, D-penicillamine tends to selectively chelate with Cu2+ and then forms the mixed-valence complexes, which consequently inhibits the aggregation of Tween 20-AuNPs and the fluorescent recovery. The dual-signal method is used to quantitatively detect trace Cu2+, with low detection limits of 0.57 μg/L and 0.36 μg/L for colorimetry and fluorescence, respectively. In addition, the proposed method using a portable spectrometer is applied to the detection of Cu2+ in water. This sensitive, accurate and miniature sensing system has potential in environmental evaluations.

Abstract
We used the first enzyme-free synthesis and stabilization of soluble melanochrome (MC) and 5,6-indolequinone (IQ) derived from levodopa (LD), dopamine (DA), and norepinephrine (NE) oxidation to develop a simple colorimetric assay for catecholamine detection in human urine, also elucidating the time-dependent formation and molecular weight of MC and IQ using UV-Vis spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The quantitative detection of LD and DA was achieved in human urine using MC as a selective colorimetric reporter to demonstrate the potential assay applicability in a matrix of interest in therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) and in clinical chemistry. The assay showed a linear dynamic range between 5.0 mg L-1 and 50.0 mg L-1, covering the concentration range of DA and LD found in urine samples from, e.g., Parkinson's patients undergoing LD-based pharmacological therapy. The data reproducibility in the real matrix was very good within this concentration range (RSDav% 3.7% and 6.1% for DA and LD, respectively), also showing very good analytical performances with the limits of detection of 3.69 ± 0.17 mg L-1 and 2.51 ± 0.08 mg L-1 for DA and LD, respectively, thus paving the way for the effective and non-invasive monitoring of dopamine and levodopa in urine from patients during TDM in Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
Herein, three patterns for the detection of fenpyroximate based on the response signal of gold nanoparticles are described. The strong interaction between the guanidine group of arginine-modified gold nanoparticles and the ester group of fenpyroximate led to the aggregation of the nanoparticles and to a variation of ultraviolet-visible light spectrum and color of the solution. Sensors were constructed based on the correlation of the concentration of fenpyroximate with the absorbance ratio (A650/A525) and the R value was obtained by extracting the color of the test solution by using a smartphone to take a photo of the solution, which was then analyzed by colorimeter software. The absorbance ratio increased linearly in the range of 0.225-0.375 mg L-1 and the limit of detection was 0.215 mg L-1, while the R value declined linearly in the range of 0.20-0.40 mg L-1 and the limit of detection was 0.21 mg L-1. Further, the gold nanoparticles could cause a fluorescence quenching of fluorescent dyes, such as rhodamine B, and it was found that the fluorescence could be quenched and then restored after aggregation; therefore, a fluorescence method based on fluorescence "off-on" was constructed, and the fluorescence quenching was found to increase linearly in the range of 0.0-1.0 mg L-1 and the limit of detection was 0.013 mg L-1. These three patterns indicated highly selective and sensitive response signals for fenpyroximate, and all were applied to the detection of fenpyroximate in apple juice, pear juice, and environmental water samples, with the results showing that the three methods could be mutually verified, with the recoveries ranging from 94.15% to 110.65%.

Bidirectional motivated bimodal isothermal strand displacement amplifier with a table tennis-like movement for the ultrasensitive fluorescent and colorimetric detection of depression-related microRNA. Anal Chim Acta 2023; 1247:340894. [PMID: 36781251 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2023.340894] [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: 11/21/2022] [Revised: 01/16/2023] [Accepted: 01/24/2023] [Indexed: 01/26/2023]
Abstract
An increasing number of studies have highlighted the potential of microRNAs (miRNAs) as physiological indicators of major depressive disorder (MDD). Herein, we developed a bidirectional-motivated bimodal isothermal strand displacement amplifier (BB-ISDA) for the ultrasensitive fluorescent and colorimetric detection of MDD-related miRNA-132. In the BB-ISDA system, a pair of functionalized hairpin probes (HP1 and HP2) with nicking recognition sites are designed to recognize target miRNA. The recognition of target miRNA by HP1 (or HP2) generates copious numbers of nicked triggers by HP1 (or HP2)-based ISDA to recognize HP2 (or HP1) by autonomous strand polymerization, cleavage, and displacement, which in turn induces the subsequent generation of copious numbers of nicked G-quadruplex triggers by HP2 (or HP1)-based ISDA to recognize HP1 (or HP2) along a same line. After many cycles, this bidirectional motivated table-tennis-like movement amplifies the fluorescent signal from HP1 and the colorimetric signal from HP2, simultaneously. The dual-signal output pattern was cross-validated for sensing miRNA-132. Each of the detection modal shows the capability for qualitative and quantitative detection of miRNA-132 with high sensitivity and specificity. The adaptability of the bimodal mechanism was verified via the detection of target miRNA-132 from clinical human blood samples. We envision that this BB-ISDA with dual-signal output for accurate and reliable analysis of miRNA is promising for the molecular diagnosis of human mental diseases.

Abstract
Spectrometers are essential analytical devices for analyzing fluid samples in biological, environmental, and disease diagnostic applications. However, the relatively high cost, the lack of portability, and the requirement for a constant power supply of bulky laboratory instruments limit their on-site applications. Herein, a wireless, cost-effective, open-source, and handheld spectrometer was designed and fabricated to realize the colorimetric and fluorescence analyses. It was built from off-the-shelf electronics utilizing 3D printing technology. The assembled device costs as little as $50. It has an overall dimension of 5 × 5 × 8 cm and an overall weight of only 130 g, which can easily fit in the palm of an adult's hand. It can detect light waves in the 405-690 nm range and transmit the read data to the corresponding SpecAnalysis Android application via Bluetooth. The feasibility of the device was demonstrated by the optical detection of Cu(II), bovine serum albumin, and calf thymus DNA. The sensitivity and detection limits of this device were comparable to those of commercial research-grade spectrophotometers and fluorescence spectrometers. The results suggest that the handheld spectrometer can be applied to detect a variety of substances, not limited to quantitative analysis of a specific individual compound.

Aptasensor-based assay for dual-readout determination of aflatoxin B1 in corn and wheat via an electrostatic force-mediated FRET strategy. Mikrochim Acta 2023; 190:80. [PMID: 36729205 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-023-05641-1] [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: 07/20/2022] [Accepted: 12/28/2022] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
A rapid and sensitive aptasensor was established for the dual-readout determination of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) utilizing an electrostatically mediated fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) signal amplification strategy. In the presence of AFB1, the aptamer preferentially bound to AFB1, resulting in the aggregation of bare gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) induced by NaCl, accompanied by a change of AuNP solution from wine-red to purple. This color change was used for colorimetric channel analysis. Then, the positively charged quantum dots were introduced into reaction system and interacted with negatively charged AuNPs, which successfully converted the color signal into a more sensitive fluorescence signal through FRET. The fluorescence quenching efficiency decreased with increasing concentrations of AFB1, and the fluorescence of aptasensor gradually recovered. The variation of fluorescence intensity was employed for fluorometric channel analysis. Under the optimal conditions, the color and fluorescence signals exhibited excellent response to AFB1 concentration within the ranges 10-320 ng·mL-1 and 3-320 ng·mL-1, respectively, and the limit of detection was as low as 7.32 ng·mL-1 and 1.48 ng·mL-1, respectively. The proposed aptasensor exhibited favorable selectivity, good recovery (85.3-113.4% in spiked corn and wheat samples), stable reproducibility (RSD<13.3%), and satisfactory correlation with commercial kits (R2=0.998). The aptasensor developed integrates advantages of modification-free, dual-readout, self-calibration, easy operation, and cost-effectiveness, while providing a simple and universal strategy for rapid and sensitive detection of mycotoxins in foodstuffs.

Abstract
Design of oligonucleotide probe-based isothermal amplification with the ability to identify miRNA biomarkers is crucial for molecular diagnostics. Herein, we engineered a miRNA-21 responsive G-quadruplex-deficient precursor hairpin probe (PHP) to achieve dual-mode detection of fluorescent signal and colorimetric signal. Due to lack of complete G-quadruplex sequence, PHP becomes shorter in length, lower background signal and less interference. Based on the polymerase-driven amplification mechanism, in the presence of miRNAs, two simultaneous amplification reaction processes will occur in PHP: miRNA-based amplification process and endogenous amplification process along the 3' end. Due to the positional difference between the starting points of the two amplification processes, the orderly and efficient occurrence of the two amplification processes can be achieved. Based on an interesting concept, PHP can achieve high detection performance with only simple amplification cycles. In such a way, the detection limits for fluorescence and colorimetry were 2.93 fM and 8.81 fM, which would cover most of clinical qualitative and quantitative needs. Thus, the accurate quantitative and visual miRNA detection technology based on PHP is beneficial to carry out extensive disease screening and treatment monitoring in various complex occasions.

Abstract
To address the urgent demand for sensitive and stable detection applications, significant efforts have been made in the development of dual-signal readout assays for precise target detection and timely health risk control. Here, a new nanomaterial, Pt@PCN-224-HRP-initiator DNA (PP-HRP-iDNA), was exploited to construct a dual-signal readout biosensing platform. Zr-MOF (PCN-224) was loaded with as many Pt nanoparticles (NPs) and as much horseradish peroxidase (HRP) as possible to enhance the brightness of the colorimetric signal recognizable to the naked eye while also acting as a gatekeeper to protect the enzyme activity and ensuring the stability of the assay process. Moreover, the Pt NPs and HRP displayed a synergistic catalytic effect, which promoted the sensitivity of detection. Further, the formation of the Zr-O-P bond eliminated the instability of the interactions between PCN-224 and iDNA in a controllable manner. After the immunoreaction, iDNA stimulated a hybridization chain reaction, resulting in a significant reduction of the fluorescent DNA in the supernatant and a fluorescent signal change. Subsequently, the PP-HRP-iDNA probe implemented UV-light response (450 nm) where 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine was used as a substrate for the colorimetric signal readout. By virtue of the nanomaterial-modulated transduction mechanism and the antigen-antibody interactions, this dual-signal biosensor displays high sensitivity, with a limit of detection of 0.65 pg/mL for aflatoxin B1 and 4 CFU/mL for Salmonella enteritidis, suggesting the detection potential of the biosensing platform for analyzing various targets.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is considered as one of the main causes of death, threating human lives for decades. Currently, its diagnosis relies on electrocardiography (ECG), which has been proven to be insufficient. In this context, the efficient detection of cardiac biomarkers was proposed to overcome the limitations of ECG. In particular, the measurement of troponins, specifically cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and cardiac troponin T (cTnT), has proven to be superior in terms of sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of myocardial damage. As one of the most life-threatening conditions, specific and sensitive investigation methods that are fast, universally available, and cost-efficient to allow for early initiation of evidence-based, living-saving treatment are desired. In this review, we aim to present and discuss the major breakthroughs made in the development of cTnI and cTnT specific biosensor designs and analytical tools, highlighting the achieved progress as well as the remaining challenges to reach the technological goal of simple, specific, cheap, and portable testing chips for the rapid and efficient on-site detection of cardiac cTnI/cTnT biomarkers in order to diagnose and treat cardiovascular diseases at an incipient stage.

Abstract
A dual-mode self-powered aptasensing platform of photoelectrochemical (PEC) and photofuel cell (PFC) was constructed for Microcystin-LR (MC-LR) detection. Specifically, the In2O3-In2S3-Ti3C2 (IO-IS-TC) composite was facilely assembled on the base of MOF-derived In2O3 hollow tubulars, and the integrated mechanism and photoconversion efficiency are proposed and discussed in detail. Herein, a promising dual-mode sensing platform was constructed using the IO-IS-TC composite as a photoanode matrix with higher output power and obvious photocurrent response. Moreover, the dual-mode sensing platform did not require external bias and the addition of sacrificial agents under visible light irradiation. The enhanced PEC properties can be attributed to the matched energy level of ternary components and the improved separation of photogenerated carriers. Moreover, aptamer-based recognition was adopted to catch MC-LR molecules, which realized the highly sensitive and selective detection. The PFC aptasensor was exhibited at 50-5 × 105 pmol/L with a detection limit of 17.4 pmol/L, and the PEC aptasensor was realized from 0.5 to 4 × 105 pmol/L with a detection limit of 0.169 pmol/L. The proposed aptasensing platform showed good specificity, reproducibility, and stability, which paved the way for the construction of a fast and ultrasensitive PEC sensing methodology for environmental analysis.

Abstract
The systematic investigation and risk assessment of dibutyl phthalate (DBP) were performed using an ultrasensitive dual-signal immunoassay in Zhenjiang, Jiangsu Province. In this study, C-dots@H-MnO2 nanohybrid were synthesized and labelled on the secondary antibody to generate fluorometric and colorimetric signals. Attributed to the efficient catalysis of carbon dots (C-dots) and the high C-dots loading of hollow manganese (IV) oxide (H-MnO2), the excellent sensitivity and low detection limits (0.243 and 0.692 μg/L respectively) were produced. Based on the proposed method, 25 water and 119 beverage samples were investigated. DBP was found in all water samples and 65.5% of beverage samples, with the concentrations varying in 16.5-32.1 μg/L and 0-553 μg/L, respectively. In addition, the mean concentration (22.9 μg/L) in waters was decreased significantly compared with that detected in 2016 (43.5 μg/L) by our Lab. For beverages, a similar phenomenon was observed by the measured concentrations from coffee. Furthermore, the potential ecological risks of DBP were evaluated, the results indicated that human activities had caused serious pollution and high risks to the local aquatic ecosystem. On the other hand, the results of health risk assessment suggested that DBP in beverages might not cause obvious side effects to local residents.

Sensitive ratiometric fluorescence probe based on chitosan carbon dots and calcein for Alkaline phosphatase detection and bioimaging in cancer cells. Anal Chim Acta 2021; 1188:339163.

Abstract
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is a commonly used marker in clinical practice, and this enzyme is a key indicator for diagnosing various diseases. In this study, we describe the development of a reliable and novel fluorescent assay for ALP detection based on chitosan carbon dots (C-CDs, peak emission, 412 nm) and calcein (peak emission, 512 nm). In the presence of Eu3+ (which binds calcein), the fluorescence intensity of calcein is quenched. Utilizing the ALP-triggered generation of phosphate ions (PO43-) from the substrate p-nitrophenyl phosphate (pNPP), the Eu3+ ions bind PO43- (which shows a higher affinity toward Eu3+ than calcein), and the fluorescence of calcein is recovered. As a consequence, C-CDs fluorescence is decreased by inner filter effect (IFE). Exploiting these changes in the fluorescence intensity ratio of C-CDs and calcein, we developed a high sensitivity, accurate, and easily synthesized ratiometric fluorescence probe. Our novel fluorescent bioassay demonstrates good linear relationship in the 0.09-0.8 mU mL-1 range, with a low detection limit of 0.013 mU mL-1. The excellent applicability of this novel assay in HepG2 cells and human serum samples demonstrates that our novel method has excellent biomedical research and disease diagnosis prospects.

Abstract
To improve the accuracy and specificity of visual sensors for detecting Cu(II) and Hg(II), a fluorescent and colorimetric dual-modal sensor based on Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) prepared by using carbon dots (CDs) was designed. If a sensor is to be applied for the detection of targets in different environmental backgrounds, it needs to have high stability against heat, pH, and salt. To this end, CD-wrapped AuNP probes were fabricated by the in situ reaction of chloroauric acid and reductive CDs. The reductive CDs were prepared with hyperbranched polyethyleneimine (HPEI) as a carbon source. HPEI-CDs not only acted as a reducing agent but also as an excellent stabilizer in the preparation and detection application of the AuNPs. Based on multiple signal responses, including color, UV-Vis absorption, and fluorescence intensity, the HPEI-CD/AuNP nanosensor was used to realize the detection of Cu2+ and Hg2+ in the linear range 9.0×10-10-9.0×10-4 M and 9.0×10-7-9.0×10-5 M with low detection limits of 75.6 nM and 281 nM, respectively. In tap water analysis, the recovery of Cu2+ and Hg2+ by fluorescent range from 109.98-113.31% and 100.65-100.81%, and the RSD values were 0.1159-1.6317% and 3.2-5.4%, respectively. The recovery of Cu2+ and Hg2+ by colorimetric detection were 99.72-100.14% and 99.88-100.12%, and RSD values were 0.6527-0.6842% and 0.4400-0.8386%, respectively. Importantly, this sensor was applied to the accurate and sensitive detection of Cu2+ and Hg2+ in tap water and sea water. The multimode readout nanosensor exhibited strong potential for achieving simultaneous detection of two different heavy metal ions in practical applications. The novel multi-mode readout carbon dots/AuNPs sensor for Cu2+ and Hg2+ detectionshowed high sensitivity and selectivity.
