Hassanzadeh J, Al Lawati HAJ, Bagheri N. Bifunctional oxidase-peroxidase mimicking Fe-Ce MOF on paper-based analytical devices to intensify luminol chemiluminescence: Application for measuring different sugars with a smartphone readout. Talanta 2024; 276:126219. [PMID: 38733936 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126219] [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: 01/18/2024] [Revised: 04/03/2024] [Accepted: 05/05/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024]
Abstract
This study presents a potent paper-based analytical device (PAD) for quantifying various sugars using an innovative bi-nanozyme made from a 2-dimensional Fe/Ce metal-organic framework (FeCe-BTC). The MOF showed excellent bifunctional peroxidase-oxidase activities, efficiently catalyzing luminol's chemiluminescence (CL) reaction. As a peroxidase-like nanozyme, FeCe-BTC could facilitate the dissociation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into hydroxyl radicals, which then oxidize luminol. Additionally, it was also discovered that when reacting with H2O2, the MOF turns into a mixed-valence MOF, and acts as an oxidase nanozyme. This activity is caused by the generated Ce4+ ions in the structure of MOF that can directly oxidize luminol. The MOF was directly synthesized on the PAD and cascaded with specific natural enzymes to establish simple, rapid, and selective CL sensors for the measurement of different sugars. A cell phone was also used to record light intensities, which were then correlated to the analyte concentration. The designed PAD showed a wide linear range of 0.1-10 mM for glucose, fructose, and sucrose, with detection limits of 0.03, 0.04, and 0.04 mM, respectively. It showed satisfactory results in food and biological samples with recovery values ranging from 95.8 to 102.4 %, which makes it a promising candidate for point-of-care (POC) testing for food control and medicinal purposes.

Abstract
With the rapid development of society, food safety to public health has been a topic that cannot be ignored. In recent years, lanthanide-based materials are studied to be potential candidates in the detection of food samples. Cerium (Ce)-based materials (such as Ce ions, CeO2, Ce-metal organic framework (Ce-MOF), etc.) have also attracted more attention in food detection by virtue of colorimetric, fluorescence, sensing, and other methods. This is because the mixed valence of Ce (Ce3+ and Ce4+), the formation of oxygen vacancies, and their optical and electrochemical properties. In this review, Ce-based materials will be introduced and discussed in the field of food detection, including biogenesis, construction, catalytic mechanisms, combination, and applications. In addition, the current challenges and future development trend of these Ce-based materials in food safety detection are also proposed and discussed. Therefore, it is meaningful to explore the Ce-based materials for detection of biomarkers in food samples.

Abstract
A growing number of applications require simultaneous detection of multiplexed nucleic acid targets in a single reaction, which enables higher information density in combination with reduced assay time and cost. Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and the CRISPR-Cas system have broad applications for the detection of nucleic acids due to their strong specificity, high sensitivity, and excellent programmability. However, realizing multiplexed detection is still challenging for the CRISPR-Cas system due to the nonspecific collateral cleavage activity, limited signal reporting strategies, and possible cross-reactions. In this review, we summarize the principles, strategies, and features of multiplexed detection based on the CRISPR-Cas system and further discuss the challenges and perspective.

An integrated liposome-based microfluidic strategy for rapid colorimetric analysis: A case study of microRNA-21 detection. Talanta 2024; 272:125838. [PMID: 38430866 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.125838] [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: 12/28/2023] [Revised: 02/21/2024] [Accepted: 02/25/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024]
Abstract
In this study, a novel integrated liposome-based microfluidic platform combined with a smartphone was designed for the rapid colorimetric detection of microRNA-21 (miRNA-21) in real samples. The flowing surface-functionalized liposomes were first captured by nucleic acid-functionalized Au nanoparticles in the microfluidic chip. In the presence of miRNA-21, the DNA strand modified on the surface of Au nanoparticles hybridized with the target to form double-stranded products and was cleaved by duplex-specific nuclease (DSN) enzyme, causing the liposomes to be re-released. Then, as the liposomes in the colorimetric module were lysed and the "cellular" contents were released, a step-by-step "glucose-glucose oxidase-3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB)" colorimetric reaction process catalyzed by the G-quadruplex/hemin was triggered. The grayscale values were recorded and recognized by the smartphone camera for miRNA-21 analysis. The advantages of the present strategy included the portability of smartphone-based colorimetric assay, the encapsulation and transport of reactants by liposomes and the low solvent usage of microfluidic chip. Under optimal conditions, this assay exhibited a wide linear range from 1 pM to 1 nM (r2 = 0.9981), and the limit of detection of miRNA-21 was as low as 0.27 pM. Moreover, the high specificity of this strategy allowed its successful application to the rapid analysis of miRNA-21 in real blood serum samples of people with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Doping specific active sites and accelerating the decisive step of glucose catalysis to construct highly active glucose sensing electrochemical catalysts remains a major challenge for glucose sensing. Herein, we report the detailed design of Cu-Co dual active site N-doped carbon nanotube (CuCo-NCNTs) obtained by electrodeposition modification, programmed warming and calcination for electrochemical glucose detection. In the CuCo-NCNTs material system, Cu serves as the main active site for glucose sensing. Co with good adsorption of hydroxyl groups acts as the site providing hydroxyl groups to provide oxygen source for Cu oxidized glucose sensing. The synergistic effect between the two active sites in the Cu-Co system and the abundant micro-reactive sites exposed by carbon nanotubes greatly ensure the excellent electrocatalytic performance of glucose oxidation reaction. Therefore, CuCo-NCNTs have good electrocatalytic performance with a sensitivity of 0.84 mA mM-1 cm-2 and a detection limit of 1 μM, and also have excellent stability and specificity. DFT calculations elucidate the decisive steps of H-atom removal in the oxidation of glucose by Cu active site N-doped carbon nanotube (Cu-NCNTs) and Co active site N-doped carbon nanotube (CuCo-NCNTs) materials, illustrating the role of oxygen source provided by hydroxyl group adsorption in the electrochemical sensing process of glucose, thus demonstrating that the electrochemical sensing signal of glucose can be effectively enhanced when cobalt species that readily adsorb hydroxyl groups are introduced into the materials.

Abstract
The Lucas-Washburn equation is commonly used to predict the distance (L) that a liquid travels through paper. This equation establishes that L2 is linear with time and inversely proportional to the viscosity of the liquid. However, there is currently no theoretical equation connecting the viscosity of a solution to its concentration. In this study, the imbibition flow of a sucrose solution was measured along the length of a horizontal strip of filter paper, featuring a printed, thermometer-shaped hydrophobic boundary. A sample (38 μL) was dispensed onto the bulb area, and the solution's flow was visually tracked using a red dye added to the sample. The imbibition length (L) was measured by a vernier caliper at 10.0 min after the sample addition. An empirical equation, based on literature values of the viscosity (η) and concentration (C) of sucrose solutions, was proposed. By integrating this empirical equation with the Lucas-Washburn equation, the following equation was derived: L = a⋅exp{-(bC + cC2)}, where 'a', 'b' and 'c' are parameters. This equation was fitted to the dataset of L and C, covering C values from 0 to 60 % w/w standard sucrose solutions, resulting in a coefficient of determination of 0.9987. The plot of L against C was observed to closely follow a linear line, with a fitting providing a coefficient of determination of 0.9986. The sucrose contents in samples, such as soft drinks, syrups, and sugarcanes, determined using the imbibition length method and conventional refractometry, were in statistical agreement via the paired t-test at the 95 % confidence level. This method is simple, instrument-free, requiring only a small amount of safe red food dye, and can be conducted on-site.

Abstract
Nanozymes, a class of synthetic nanomaterials possessing enzymatic catalytic properties, exhibit distinct advantages such as exceptional stability and cost-effectiveness. Among them, metal-organic framework (MOF)-based nanozymes have garnered significant attention due to their large specific surface area, tunable pore size and uniform structure. MOFs are porous crystalline materials bridged by inorganic metal ions/clusters and organic ligands, which hold immense potential in the fields of catalysis, sensors and drug carriers. The combination of MOFs with diverse nanomaterials gives rise to various types of MOF-based nanozyme, encompassing original MOFs, MOF-based nanozymes with chemical modifications, MOF-based composites and MOF derivatives. It is worth mentioning that the metal ions and organic ligands in MOFs are perfectly suited for designing oxidoreductase-like nanozymes. In this review, we intend to provide an overview of recent trends and progress in MOF-based nanozymes with oxidoreductase-like activity. Furthermore, the current obstacles and prospective outlook of MOF-based nanozymes are proposed and briefly discussed. This comprehensive analysis aims to facilitate progress in the development of novel MOF-based nanozymes with oxidoreductase-like activity while serving as a valuable reference for scientists engaged in related disciplines.

Abstract
Finding materials in biosensing that balance enzyme-like reactivity, stability, and affordability is essential for the future. Because of their unique peroxidase properties, including variable pore size, surface area, and Lewis acid active sites, iron-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have evolved as viable possibilities. In this study, we constructed a Fe-MOF and tested its peroxidase-like activity and responsiveness toward H2O2 colorimetric techniques. Using encapsulation, we incorporated glucose oxidase into the ZIF-90 PVP MOF and conducted a sequential reaction with the Fe-MOF to detect glucose. The results showed better peroxidase catalytic activity of the MIL-88B(Fe) (1,4-NDC) MOF and similar secondary building unit (SBU) Fe-MOFs were studied in other peroxidase nanozyme studies. When combined with an enzyme-encapsulating ZIF-90 PVP MOF, they could be sequentially employed for glucose detection purposes. This study highlights the potential of nanozymes as an alternative to natural enzymes, with promising applications in biosensing and beyond.

Abstract
The use of peroxidase mimics has great potential for various real applications due to their strong catalytic activity. Herein, a facile strategy was proposed to directly prepare CuO@g-C3N4 by Cu-MOF derivatization and demonstrated its efficacy in constructing a multiple enzymatic cascade system by loading protein enzymes onto it. The resulting CuO@g-C3N4 possessed high peroxidase-like activity, with a Michaelis constant (Km) of 0.25 and 0.16 mM for H2O2 and 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB), respectively. Additionally, the high surface area of CuO@g-C3N4 facilitated the loading of protein enzymes and maintained their activity over an extended period, expanding the potential applications of CuO@g-C3N4. To test its feasibility, CuO@g-C3N4/protein oxidase complex was prepared and used to sense the ripeness and freshness of fruits and meat, respectively. The mechanism relied on the fact that the ripeness of fruits increased and freshness of food decreased with the release of marked targets, such as glucose and xanthine, which could produce H2O2 when digested by the corresponding oxidase. The peroxidase mimics of CuO@g-C3N4 could then sensitively colorimetric detect H2O2 in present of TMB. The obtained CuO@g-C3N4/oxidase complex exhibited an excellent linear response to glucose or xanthine in the range of 1.0-120 μmol/L or 8.0-350 μmol/L, respectively. Furthermore, accurate quantification of glucose and xanthine in real samples is achieved with spiked recoveries ranging from 80.2% to 120.0% and from 94.2% to 112.0%, respectively. Overall, this work demonstrates the potential of CuO@g-C3N4 in various practical applications, such as food freshness detection.

Abstract
An enzyme-catalyzed high-performing reaction with in-situ amplified photocurrent was innovatively designed for the quantitative screening of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in biological fluids by coupling with carbon-functionalized inorganic photoanode. A split-type photoelectrochemical (PEC) immunoassay was initially executed with horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-labeled secondary antibody on the capture antibody-coated microtiter. Then, the photocurrent of carbon-functionalized inorganic photoanode were improved through enzymatic insoluble product. Experimental results revealed that introduction of the outer carbon layer on the inorganic photoactive materials caused the amplifying photocurrent because of the improving light harvesting and separation of photo-generated e-/h+ pairs. Under optimum conditions, the split-type photoelectrochemical immunosensing platform displayed good photocurrent responses within the dynamic range of 0.01 - 80 ng mL-1 CEA, and allowed the detection of CEA as low as a concentration of 3.6 pg mL-1 at the 3Sblank level. The strong attachment of antibodies onto nano label and high-performing photoanode resulted in a good repeatability and intermediate precision down to 9.83%. No significant differences at the 0.05 significance level were encountered in the analysis of six human serum specimens between the developed PEC immunoassay and the commercially available CEA ELISA kits.

Abstract
Fe-N-doped carbon nanomaterials (Fe-N/CMs) were designed as a novel biomimetic enzyme with excellent peroxidase-like activity to achieve high-efficient enzyme cascade catalytic amplification with the aid of glucose oxidase (GOx), which was further combined with target-induced DNA walker amplification to develop a sensitive electrochemical biosensor for thrombin detection. Impressively, massive output DNA was transformed from small amounts of target thrombin by highly effective DNA walker amplification as protein-converting strategy, which could then induce the immobilization of functionalized nanozyme on the electrode surface to achieve the high-efficient electrochemical biomimetic enzyme cascade amplification. As a result, an amplified enzyme cascade catalytic signal was measured for thrombin detection ranging from 0.01 pM to 1 nM with a low detection limit of 3 fM. Importantly, the new biomimetic enzyme cascade reaction coupled the advantages of natural enzyme and nanozyme, which paved an avenue to construct varied artificial multienzymes amplification systems for biosensing, bioanalysis, and disease diagnosis applications.

Biosens Bioelectron 2023; 234:115294. [PMID: 37126877 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115294] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2023] [Revised: 03/21/2023] [Accepted: 03/31/2023] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
In order to achieve the simultaneous extraction and detection of tetracycline (TC) in milk, the amino-functionalized Fe-based metal-organic frameworks (NH2-MIL-88B) was synthesized via a solvothermal method with Fe3+ and 2-aminoterephthalic acid (NH2-BDC) as precursor. Thanks to the unique structure of NH2-MIL-88B, it could be used to highly effective extract of TC in milk. More interestedly, the introduced -NH2 could react with -OH from TC by a hydrogen-bonding interaction to cause the electronic interactions that enhances the peroxidase-like activity of NH2-MIL-88B, which result in the enhancement of Fenton reaction by the transfer of the electron between TC and NH2-MIL-88B. Under the optimal testing conditions, the linear absorbance response is well correlated with the TC concentration range of 50-1000 nM, which can reach a low LOD of 46.75 nM. Besides, the sensor exhibits excellent selectivity to TC, and the proposed strategy can also be applied to milk with good recovery (83.33-107.00%). Finally, the NH2-MIL-88B and cellulose acetate (CA) are combined to form nanozyme hybrid membranes through the non-solvent induced phase separation method, which can be used to prepare point-of-care testing (POCT) for rapid and in-situ detection of TC.

Boric acid-functionalized silver nanoparticles as SERS substrate for sensitive and rapid detection of fructose in artificial urine. SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2023; 288:122179.

Abstract
The accurate detection of fructose in human urine can help prevent and screen for diseases such as fructokinase deficiency and hereditary fructose intolerance. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is an analytical technique with selectivity and high sensitivity, which has been widely applied to the detection of targets with complex backgrounds. In this work, 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (4-MPBA) was modified on the surface of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) under mild conditions to obtain a boronic acid-functionalized SERS substrate for the detection of fructose in artificial urine. The detection mechanism was based on the deboronization reaction of 4-MPBA on the surface of AgNPs, which was induced by fructose, and the Raman signal of the generated thiophenol (TP) molecules was significantly enhanced by the silver nanoparticles, with a linear increase in SERS peak intensity at 1570 cm-1. We achieved the detection limits of 0.084 µmol/L in water and 0.535 µmol/L in urine by this method. The relative standard deviation (RSD) in the recovery experiments of urine ranged from 1.01 % to 2.22 %, and the whole detection time was less than 10 min, which indicated that this method is highly reliable for fructose detection and has a good prospect in bioassay and clinical medicine.

Abstract
The traditional analytical methods used for biomedical analysis are expensive and not easy to handle and require sophisticated instruments, thus their application is limited in resource-limited settings. Due to their portability, low cost, and ability to be applied to different analytical techniques, paper-based analytical devices are becoming valuable tools for biomedical analysis. The integration of smartphones into analytical devices has provided the ability to build portable, cost-effective, straightforward analytical devices for biomedical analysis and mobile health. The key aim of this review is to emphasize the recent applications of PADs combined with a smartphone for the optical analysis of biomedical species. We started this review by highlighting the type of papers and their modifications with different materials to prepare the PADs. After that, this review presents various detection methods including colorimetry, fluorescence, and luminescence where the smartphone is used for read-out. In the end, we provided the recent applications of the analysis of different biomedical compounds such as cancer and cardiovascular biomarkers, metal ions, glucose, viruses, etc. We believe that the present review will attract a wide scientific community in the areas of analytical chemistry, sensors, and clinical testing.

Abstract
AbstractMiniaturized electrochemical sensing systems are employed in day-to-day uses in the several area from public health to scientific applications. A variety of electrochemical sensor and biosensor systems may not be effectively employed in real-world diagnostic laboratories and biomedical industries due to their limitation of portability, cost, analytical period, and need of skilled trainer for operating devices. The design of smart and portable sensors with high sensitivity, good selectivity, rapid measurement, and reusable platforms is the driving strength for sensing glucose, lactate, hydrogen peroxide, nitric oxide, mRNA, etc. The enhancement of sensing abilities of such sensor devices through the incorporation of both novel sensitive nanomaterials and design of sensor strategies are evidenced. Miniaturization, cost and energy efficient, online and quantitative detection and multiple sensing ability are the beneficial of the nanostructured-material-based electrochemical sensor and biosensor systems. Owing to the discriminating catalytic action, solidity and biocompatibility for designing sensing system, nanoscale materials empowered electrochemical detection systems are accomplished of being entrenched into/combined with portable or miniaturized devices for specific applications. In this review, the advance development of portable and smart sensing/biosensing systems derived from nanoscale materials for clinical and biomedical applications is described.
