Abstract
Salmonella screening is essential to avoid food poisoning. A simple, fast and sensitive colorimetric biosensor was elaborately developed for Salmonella detection on a microfluidic chip through limiting air chambers for precise air control, switching rotary valves for accurate fluid selection, a convergence-and-divergence passive micromixer and an extrusion-and-suction active micromixer for efficient fluid mixing, and immune gold@platinum palladium nanocatalysts for effective signal amplification. The mixture of bacteria, immune magnetic nanobeads and nanocatalysts was first rapidly mixed to form nanobead-bacteria-nanocatalyst conjugates and magnetically separated for enrichment. After washing with water, the conjugates were used to catalyze colorless substrate and blue product was finally analyzed using ImageJ for quantifying bacterial concentration. The finger-actuated microfluidic chip enabled designated control of designated fluids in designated places towards designated directions by simple press-release operations on designated air chambers without any external power. Under optimal conditions, this sensor could detect Salmonella at 45 CFU/mL in 25 min.

[PMID: 38924986 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126435] [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: 04/07/2024] [Revised: 06/12/2024] [Accepted: 06/13/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) is a powerful tool for early warning of infectious disease outbreaks. Hence, a rapid and portable pathogen monitoring system is urgent needed for on-site detection. In this work, we first reported synthesis of an artificial modulated wide-spectrum bacteria capture nanoparticle (Arg-CSP@UiO@Fe3O4). Arginine-modified phosphorylated chitosan (Arg-CSP) coating could provide strongly positive charged guanidinium group for pathogen interaction by electrostatic attraction, and UiO-66-NH2 layer could help Arg-CSP graft onto Fe3O4 magnetic particles. The capture efficiency of Arg-CSP@UiO@Fe3O4 reached 92.2 % and 97.3 % for Escherichia coli (E.coli) and Staphylococcus epidermidis (S.epidermidis)within 40 min, in 10 mL sample. To prevent pathogen degradation in sewage, a portable nucleic acid extraction-free method was also developed. UiO-66-NH2 could disintegrate in buffer with high concentration of PO43- for bacterium desorption, and then nucleic acid of the bacteria was released by heating. The DNA template concentration obtained by this method was 779.28 times higher than that of the direct thermal lysis product and 8.63 times higher than that of the commercial kit. Afterwards, multiple detection of bacteria was realized by loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP). Artificial regulated pathogen desorption could prevent non-specific adsorption of nucleic acid by nanoparticles. The detection limit of Arg-CSP@UiO@Fe3O4-LAMP method was 80 cfu/mL for E.coli and 300 cfu/mL for S.epidermidis. The accuracy and reliability of the method was validated by spiked sewage samples. In conclusion, this bio-monitoring system was able to detect multiple bacteria in environment conveniently and have good potential to become an alternative solution for rapid on-site pathogen detection.

Abstract
Multiplex, sensitive, and rapid detection of pathogens is crucial for ensuring food safety and safeguarding human health, however, it remains a significant challenge. This study proposes a concanavalin A-assisted multiplex digital amplification (CAMDA) assay for simultaneous quantitative detection of multiple foodborne bacteria. The CAMDA assay enables the simultaneous detection of six foodborne pathogens within 1.1 h and the limit of detection is 101 CFU/mL. Furthermore, the CAMDA assay exhibits high specificity, with a rate of 97 % for Bacillus cereus and 100 % for other pathogens tested in this study. Moreover, practical application validation using eight milk powder samples demonstrates that the accuracy of the CAMDA assay reaches 100 % when compared to qPCR results. Therefore, our developed CAMDA assay holds great potential for accurate and rapid detection of multiple pathogens in complex food matrices while also promoting the utilization of microfluidic chips in food investigation.

Abstract
Environmental pollution remains a major societal problem, leading to serious impacts on living organisms including humans. Human activities such as civilization, urbanization, and industrialization are major causes of pollution. Imposing stricter rules helps control environmental pollutant levels, creating a need for reliable pollutant monitoring in air, water, and soil. The application of traditional analytical techniques is limited in low-resource areas because they are sophisticated, expensive, and bulky. With the development of biosensors and microfluidics technology, environmental monitoring has significantly improved the analysis time, low cost, portability, and ease of use. This review discusses the fundamentals of portable devices, including microfluidics and biosensors, for environmental control. Recently, publications reviewing microfluidics and biosensor device applications have increased more than tenfold, showing the potential of emerging novel approaches for environmental monitoring. Strategies for enzyme-, immunoassay-, and molecular-based analyte sensing are discussed based on their mechanisms and applications. Microfluidic and biosensor platforms for detecting major pollutants, including metal ions, pathogens, pesticides, and antibiotic residues, are reviewed based on their working principles, advantages, and disadvantages. Challenges and future trends for the device design and fabrication process to improve performance are discussed. Miniaturization, low cost, selectivity, sensitivity, high automation, and savings in samples and reagents make the devices ideal alternatives for in-field detection, especially in low-resource areas. However, their operation with complicated environmental samples requires further research to improve the specificity and sensitivity. Although there is a wide range of devices available for environmental applications, their implementation in real-world situations is limited. This study provides insights into existing issues that can be used as references and a comparative analysis for future studies and applications.

Abstract
The excessive presence of airborne fungal spores presents major concerns with potential adverse impacts on public health and food safety. These spores are recognized as pathogens and allergens prevalent in both outdoor and indoor environments, particularly in public spaces such as hospitals, schools, offices and hotels. Indoor environments pose a heightened risk of pulmonary diseases due to continuous exposure to airborne fungal spore particles through constant inhalation, especially in those individuals with weakened immunity and immunocompromised conditions. Detection methods for airborne fungal spores are often expensive, time-consuming, and lack sensitivity, making them unsuitable for indoor/outdoor monitoring. However, the emergence of micro-nano biosensor systems offers promising solutions with miniaturized designs, nanomaterial integration, and microfluidic systems. This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in bio-nano-sensor system technology for detecting airborne fungal spores, while also discussing future trends in biosensor device development aimed at achieving rapid and selective identification of pathogenic airborne fungi.

Abstract
The enhancement of detection sensitivity in microfluidic sensors has been a continuously explored field. Initially, many strategies for sensitivity improvement involved introducing enzyme cascade reactions, but enzyme-based reactions posed challenges in terms of cost, stability, and storage. Therefore, there is an urgent need to explore enzyme-free cascade amplification methods, which are crucial for expanding the application range and improving detection stability. Metal or metal compound nanomaterials have gained great attention in the exploitation of microfluidic sensors due to their ease of preparation, storage, and lower cost. The unique physical properties of metallic nanomaterials, including surface plasmon resonance, surface-enhanced Raman scattering, metal-enhanced fluorescence, and surface-enhanced infrared absorption, contribute significantly to enhancing detection capabilities. The metal-based catalytic nanomaterials, exemplified by Fe3O4 nanoparticles and metal-organic frameworks, are considered viable alternatives to biological enzymes due to their excellent performance. Herein, we provide a detailed overview of the applications of metals and metal compounds in improving the sensitivity of microfluidic biosensors. This review not only highlights the current developments but also critically analyzes the challenges encountered in this field. Furthermore, it outlines potential directions for future research, contributing to the ongoing development of microfluidic biosensors with improved detection sensitivity.

Abstract
Developing portable and sensitive biosensors for bacteria detection is highly demanded due to their association with environmental and food safety. Paper-based microfluidic chip is the suitable candidate for constructing pump-free biosensor since paper is hydrophilic, low-cost and easy to use. However, the contradiction between sensitivity and small sample volume seriously affects the application of paper-based chip for bacteria detection. Here, a new microfluidic biosensor, combining large PDMS reservoir for sample storage, hydrophilic paper substrate for pump-free water transport, coated microspheres for bacteria capture and super absorbent resin for water absorption, is designed for the detection of bacteria in aqueous samples. Once the sample solution is introduced in the reservoir, water will automatically flow through the gaps between microspheres and the target bacteria will be captured by the aptamer coated on the surface. To facilitate PDMS reservoir bonding and ensure water transport, the upper side of paper substrate is coated with Polyethylenimine modified PDMS and the bottom side is kept unchanged. After all the solution is filtrated, fluorescent dye strained bacteria are enriched on the microspheres. The fluorescent intensity representing the number of bacteria captured is then measured using a portable instrument. Through the designed microfluidic biosensor, the bacteria detection can be achieved with 2 mL sample solution in less than 15 min for water or 20 min for diluted milk. A linear range from 10 CFU/mL to 1000 CFU/mL is obtained. The paper-based 3D biosensor has the merits of low-cost, simple operation, pump-free and high sensitivity and it can be applied to the simultaneous detection of multiple bacteria via integrating different aptamers.

Dual-recognition colorimetric platform based on porous Au@Pt nanozymes for highly sensitive washing-free detection of Staphylococcus aureus. Mikrochim Acta 2024; 191:438.

Abstract
A dual-recognition strategy is reported to construct a one-step washing and highly efficient signal-transduction tag system for high-sensitivity colorimetric detection of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). The porous (gold core)@(platinum shell) nanozymes (Au@PtNEs) as the signal labels show highly efficient peroxidase mimetic activity and are robust. For the sake of simplicity the detection involved the use of a vancomycin-immobilized magnetic bead (MB) and aptamer-functionalized Au@PtNEs for dual-recognition detection in the presence of S. aureus. In addition, we designed a magnetic plate to fit the 96-well microplate to ensure consistent magnetic properties of each well, which can quickly remove unreacted Au@PtNEs and sample matrix while avoiding tedious washing steps. Subsequently, Au@PtNEs catalyze hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to oxidize 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) generating a color signal. Finally, the developed Au@PtNEs-based dual-recognition washing-free colorimetric assay displayed a response in the range of S. aureus of 5 × 101-5 × 105 CFU/mL, and the detection limit was 40 CFU/mL within 1.5 h. In addition, S. aureus-fortified samples were analyzed to further evaluate the performance of the proposed method, which yielded average recoveries ranging from 93.66 to 112.44% and coefficients of variation (CVs) within the range 2.72-9.01%. These results furnish a novel horizon for the exploitation of a different mode of recognition and inexpensive enzyme-free assay platforms as an alternative to traditional enzyme-based immunoassays for the detection of other Gram-positive pathogenic bacteria.

Abstract
Rapid detection of microbes is a key feature for monitoring food quality. Unfortunately, current detection systems rely on labor-intensive and time-consuming lab-based processes that are not suitable for point-of-interest applications and typically require several days before results are available. Here, we demonstrate a microfluidic system capable of rapidly concentrating, fluorescent staining, and detecting bacteria in unprocessed complex biological media such as milk. This concentration is done using a surface acoustic wave-driven microfluidic device which operates based on the Bjerknes force, a force generated on one particle by another in its close proximity. We exploit this effect by exciting a tightly packed bed of 50 μm polystyrene microparticles temporarily with surface acoustic waves within a microfluidic device to capture and release bacterial cells on demand. The bacterial cells are fluorescently stained during capture and then detected using fluorescence microscopy upon release. This device offers a high capturing efficiency (>80%) and a 34 Colony Forming Units (CFU)/mL limit of detection, which is 1 order of magnitude below that of plate counting at 30 CFU per standard 100 μL plate (or 300 CFU/mL). This can be attained in just 1 h of processing at 10 μL/min. With this system, we demonstrate that bacterial detection from extremely low concentration samples down to the order of ∼10 CFU/mL is possible without requiring any additional external pre- or postprocessing.

Abstract
Traditional methods for the detection of pathogenic bacteria are time-consuming, less efficient, and sensitive, which affects infection control and bungles illness. Therefore, developing a method to remedy these problems is very important in the clinic to diagnose the pathogenic diseases and guide the rational use of antibiotics. Here, microfluidic electrochemical integrated sensor (MEIS) has been investigated, functionally for rapid, efficient separation and sensitive detection of pathogenic bacteria. Three-dimensional macroporous PDMS and Au nanotube-based electrode are successfully assembled into the modeling microchip, playing the functions of "3D chaotic flow separator" and "electrochemical detector," respectively. The 3D chaotic flow separator enhances the turbulence of the fluid, achieving an excellent bacteria capture efficiency. Meanwhile, the electrochemical detector provides a quantitative signal through enzyme-linked immunoelectrochemistry with improved sensitivity. The microfluidic electrochemical integrated sensor could successfully isolate Candida albicans (C. albicans) in the range of 30-3,000,000 CFU in the saliva matrix with over 95% capture efficiency and sensitively detect C. albicans in 1 h in oral saliva samples. The integrated device demonstrates great potential in the diagnosis of oral candidiasis and is also applicable in the detection of other pathogenic bacteria.

Abstract
Zwitterionic polymers possess equal total positive and negative charges in the repeating units, making them electrically neutral overall. This unique property results in superhydrophilicity, which makes the zwitterionic polymers highly effective in resisting protein adsorption, thus endowing the drug carriers with long blood circulation time, inhibiting thrombus formation on biomedical devices in contact with blood, and ensuring the good sensitivity of sensors in biomedical application. Moreover, zwitterionic polymers have tumor-targeting ability and pH-responsiveness, rendering them ideal candidates for antitumor drug delivery. Additionally, the high ionic conductivity of zwitterionic polymers makes them an important raw material for ionic skin. Zwitterionic polymers exhibit remarkable resistance to bacterial adsorption and growth, proving their suitability in a wide range of biomedical applications such as ophthalmic applications, and wound dressings. In this paper, we provide an in-depth analysis of the different structures and characteristics of zwitterionic polymers and highlight their unique qualities and suitability for biomedical applications. Furthermore, we discuss the limitations and challenges that must be overcome to realize the full potential of zwitterionic polymers and present an optimistic perspective for zwitterionic polymers in the biomedical fields. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Zwitterionic polymers have a series of excellent properties such as super hydrophilicity, anti-protein adsorption, antibacterial ability and good ionic conductivity. However, biomedical applications of multifunctional zwitterionic polymers are still a major field to be explored. This review focuses on the design and application of zwitterionic polymers-based nanosystems for targeted and responsive delivery of antitumor drugs and cancer diagnostic agents. Moreover, the use of zwitterionic polymers in various biomedical applications such as biomedical devices in contact with blood, biosensors, ionic skin, ophthalmic applications and wound dressings is comprehensively described. We discuss current results and future challenges for a better understanding of multifunctional zwitterionic polymers for biomedical applications.

Abstract
A microfluidic immuno-biosensor detection system consisting of a microfluidic spectrum chip and a micro-spectrometer detection device is presented for the rapid point-of-care (POC) detection and quantification of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in urine. The detection process utilizes a highly specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method, in which capture antibodies and detection antibodies are pre-deposited on the substrate of the microchip and used to form an immune complex with the target antigen. Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is added as a marker enzyme, followed by a colorimetric reaction using 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). The absorbance values (a.u.) of the colorimetric reaction compounds are measured using a micro-spectrometer device and used to measure the corresponding hs-CRP concentration according to the pre-established calibration curve. It is shown that the hs-CRP concentration can be determined within 50 min. In addition, the system achieves recovery rates of 93.8-106.2% in blind water samples and 94.5-104.6% in artificial urine. The results showed that the CRP detection results of 41 urine samples from patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) were highly consistent with the conventional homogeneous particle-enhanced turbidimetric immunoassay (PETIA) method's detection results (R2 = 0.9910). The experimental results showed its applicability in the detection of CRP in both urine and serum. Overall, the results indicate that the current microfluidic ELISA detection system provides an accurate and reliable method for monitoring the hs-CRP concentration in point-of-care applications.

Abstract
Microfluidics has emerged as a transformative force in the field of drug delivery, offering innovative avenues to produce a diverse range of nano drug delivery systems. Thanks to its precise manipulation of small fluid volumes and its exceptional command over the physicochemical characteristics of nanoparticles, this technology is notably able to enhance the pharmacokinetics of drugs. It has initiated a revolutionary phase in the domain of drug delivery, presenting a multitude of compelling advantages when it comes to developing nanocarriers tailored for the delivery of poorly soluble medications. These advantages represent a substantial departure from conventional drug delivery methodologies, marking a paradigm shift in pharmaceutical research and development. Furthermore, microfluidic platformsmay be strategically devised to facilitate targeted drug delivery with the objective of enhancing the localized bioavailability of pharmaceutical substances. In this paper, we have comprehensively investigated a range of significant microfluidic techniques used in the production of nanoscale drug delivery systems. This comprehensive review can serve as a valuable reference and offer insightful guidance for the development and optimization of numerous microfluidics-fabricated nanocarriers.

Abstract
This study presents a breakthrough in the field of onsite bacterial detection, offering an innovative, rapid, and ultrasensitive colorimetric biosensor for the detection of Escherichia coli (E. coli) O157:H7, using chemically modified melamine foam (MF). Different from conventional platforms, such as 96-well plates and fiber-based membranes, the modified MF features a macroporous reticulated three-dimensional (3D) framework structure, allowing fast and free movement of large biomolecules and bacteria cells through the MF structure in every direction and ensuring good accessibility of entire active binding sites of the framework structure with the target bacteria, which significantly increased sensitive and volume-responsive detection of whole-cell bacteria. The biosensing platform requires less than 1.5 h to complete the quantitative detection with a sensitivity of 10 cfu/mL, discernible by the naked eye, and an enhanced sensitivity of 5 cfu/mL with the help of a smartphone. Following a short enrichment period of 1 h, the sensitivity was further amplified to 2 cfu/mL. The biosensor material is volume responsive, making the biosensing platform sensitivity increase as the volume of the sample increases, and is highly suitable for testing large-volume fluid samples. This novel material paves the way for the development of volume-flexible biosensing platforms for the record-fast, onsite, selective, and ultrasensitive detection of various pathogenic bacteria in real-world applications.

Abstract
Constructing advanced substrates with excellent features is promising for sensitive surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) detection. Here a novel capillary monolithic 3D structural-substrate SERS platform with Au@cDNA@Ag@Cyanine 3-aptamer nanoparticles (Au@cDNA@Ag@Cy3-Apt NPs) was fabricated for rapid, highly specific profiling of ultra-trace Bisphenol A (BPA). The proposed SERS platform combined both in-capillary SERS and aptamer-affinity recognition strategies, in which the superior SERS properties of Au-Ag NPs, aptamer selectivity, and the advantages of capillary monolith were integrated. A 3D hierarchically porous network was constructed in the monolithic column, which was endowed with rich hotspots for SERS, rapid sample permeation, and better analysis efficiency than most plane-shaped SERS modes. By varying the amount of Ag+ precursor, the Ag-shell thickness on SERS was finely tuned to guarantee Cy3 label in proximity to the plasmonic surface. Based on the biorecognition of aptamer, the selective identification of BPA occurred and exhibited a significant change in SERS intensity without obvious interference. As a result, the monolithic SERS platform featured facile operation, excellent specificity, and rapid analysis (10 min, much less than the solution-based or planar substrate SERS modes). Ultra-high sensitivity and robust reproducibility for BPA analysis was achieved with a low limit of detection (LOD) at 9.12 × 10-4 ng/L. The feasibility of this SERS platform for monitoring BPA in water and milk samples was also validated. This work lights a new access to capillary monolithic SERS-sensing platform for ultrasensitive and specific analysis of BPA.

Abstract
High-throughput detection of bacteria at low levels is critical in public health, food safety, and first response. Herein, for the first time, we present a platform based on droplet microfluidics coupling with the recombinase aided amplification (RAA)-assisted one-pot clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats together with CRISPR-associated proteins 13a (CRISPR/Cas13a) assay, and droplet encoding strategy for accurate and sensitive determination of nucleic acids from various foodborne pathogens. The workflow takes full advantage of CRISPR/Cas13a signal amplification and droplet confinement effects, which enhances the detection sensitivity and enables end-point quantitation. Meanwhile, by varying the color of droplets, the number of bacteria detected at the same time is greatly improved. It possesses the capability to simultaneously detect seven different types of foodborne pathogens. Notably, the system is also applied to real food samples with satisfactory results. Overall, in view of superiorities in high sensitivity, outstanding selectivity, and large-scale multiplexing, the one-pot CRISPR/Cas13a-based droplet microfluidic system could be expanded and universalized for identifying other bacteria.

Abstract
The utilization of microfluidic analysis technology has resulted in the advancement of fast pathogenic bacteria detection, which can accurately provide information on biochemical reactions in a single cell and enhance detection efficiency. Nevertheless, the achievement of rapid and effective in situ detection of single-bacteria arrays remains a challenge due to the complexity of bacterial populations and low Reynolds coefficient fluid, resulting in insufficient diffusion. We develop microwell droplet array chips from the lateral hydrodynamic wetting approach to address this issue. The sidewall of the microwell gradually opens which aids in advancing the liquid-air interface and facilitates the impregnation of the solid microwells, preserving the Wenzel state and assisting in resisting the liquid force to separation from the drop. The feasibility of preparing cell arrays and identifying them inside the microwells was demonstrated through the simulated streamlined distribution of gradual and traditional microwells with different sizes. The water-based ink diffusion experiment examined the relationship between diffusion efficiency and flow velocity, as well as the position of the microwell relative to the channel. It showed that the smaller gradual microwell still has a good diffusion efficiency rate at a flow velocity of 2.1 μL min-1 and that the infiltration state is easier to adjust. With this platform, we successfully isolated a mixed population containing E. coli and S. aureus, obtained single-bacteria arrays, and performed Gram assays after in situ propagation. After 20 hours of culture, single bacteria reproduced demonstrating the capability of this platform to isolate, cultivate, and detect pathogenic bacteria.

Abstract
The present study developed a DNA biosensor to determine pemigatinib for the first time. Three-dimensional carnation flower-like Eu3+:β-MnO2 nanostructures (3D CF-L Eu3+:β-MnO2 NSs) and a screen-printed electrode (SPE) modified with polyaniline (PA) were employed. The double-stranded DNA was also immobilized completely on the PA/3D CF-L Eu3+:β-MnO2 NSs/SPE. Then, electrochemical techniques were used for characterizing the modified electrode. After that, the interaction between pemigatinib and DNA was shown by a reduction in the oxidation current of guanine using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). According to the analysis, the dynamic range of pemigatinib was between 0.001 and 180.0 μM, indicating the new electrode has a low limit of detection (LOD = 0.23 nM) for pemigatinib. Afterwards, pemigatinib in real samples was measured using the PA/3D CF-L Eu3+:β-MnO2 NSs/SPE loaded with ds-DNA. The proposed DNA biosensor showed good selectivity toward pemigatinib in the presence of other interference analytes, such as other ions, structurally related pharmaceuticals, and plasma proteins. In addition, the interaction site of pemigatinib with DNA was predicted by molecular docking, which showed the interaction of pemigatinib with the guanine bases of DNA through a groove binding mode. Finally, we employed the t-test to verify the capability of the ds-DNA/PA/3D CF-L Eu3+:β-MnO2 NSs/SPE for analyzing pemigatinib in real samples.

Abstract
The complex and versatile interactions among the wide variety of the nanostructures and the target analytes have primarily limited the detailed investigation of the transduction mechanism of nanomaterial-assisted electrical signal-based biosensors despite their high sensitivity, low-cost, portability, and ease of deployment. Hence, no common ground is formed detailing the principle of operation, demanding a strong need for systematic examination instead of hit and trial. Therefore, a maiden mechanistic investigation has been carried out in this paper for a field-effect-based biosensor device relying on the energy band diagram and the surface potential profile. To demonstrate the experimental evidence and appreciate the importance of food safety, three hazardous foodborne pathogens (Proteus mirabilis, Escherichia coli, and Clostridium botulinum) have been detected herein. The biosensor device, built on a hydrothermally synthesized zinc oxide and MWCNT (ZnO-MWCNT) composite nanostructure, simultaneously incorporates three fairly specific ss-DNA probes. Furthermore, the unmet challenge of biosensor device variability is addressed through the optimum selection of operating voltage of the device via a unique "voltage-selection-algorithm". We believe that the rigorous experimentation and the insightful device-physics realization demonstrated in this work will pave the way for a future decisive biosensor platform.

The developed automated system and manual methods are employed for sample extraction, enabling the isolation of highly pure nucleic acids from bacteria, blood, and animal tissues for RT-PCR detection. The instrument employs lysis temperatures ranging from 70-80 °C, elution temperature of 80 °C, and drying time of 5-10 min, with a total extraction time of less than 35 min for different sample types. Overall, the system yields high nucleic acid concentration and purity, exhibits stable instrument operation, good repeatability, high efficiency, and low cost. It meets the requirements of genetic-level research and is worthy of clinical promotion and usage.

Abstract
Due to the advantages of its numerous modification sites, predictable structure, high thermal stability, and excellent biocompatibility, DNA is the ideal choice as a key component of biosensors. DNA biosensors offer significant advantages over existing bioanalytical techniques, addressing limitations in sensitivity, selectivity, and limit of detection. Consequently, they have attracted significant attention from researchers worldwide. Here, we exemplify four foundational categories of functional nucleic acids: aptamers, DNAzymes, i-motifs, and G-quadruplexes, from the perspective of the structure-driven functionality in constructing DNA biosensors. Furthermore, we provide a concise overview of the design and detection mechanisms employed in these DNA biosensors. Noteworthy advantages of DNA as a sensor component, including its programmable structure, reaction predictility, exceptional specificity, excellent sensitivity, and thermal stability, are highlighted. These characteristics contribute to the efficacy and reliability of DNA biosensors. Despite their great potential, challenges remain for the successful application of DNA biosensors, spanning storage and detection conditions, as well as associated costs. To overcome these limitations, we propose potential strategies that can be implemented to solve these issues. By offering these insights, we aim to inspire subsequent researchers in related fields.

Abstract
A figure-actuated microfluidic biosensor was developed for the rapid and sensitive detection of Salmonella typhimurium using immunomagnetic separation to separate target bacteria and rolling circle amplification (RCA) combined with CRISPR/Cas12a to amplify the detection signal. The magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) modified with the capture antibodies (MNPs@Ab1) and RCA primer linked with recognized antibodies (primer@Ab2) were first used to react with S. typhimurium, resulting in the formation of MNPs@Ab1-S. typhimurium-primer@Ab2 complexes. Then, the RCA and CRISPR/Cas12a reagents were successively pumped into the chamber and incubated at the appropriate conditions. With the help of a 3D-printed signal detector, the fluorescence signal was collected and analyzed using the smartphone APP for the determination of bacterial concentration. This biosensor exhibited a wide linear range for the detection of S. typhimurium with a low limit of detection of 1.93 × 102 CFU/mL and a mean recovery of about 106% in the spiked milk sample.

Abstract
Early detection of foodborne bacteria is urgently needed to ensure food quality and to avoid the outbreak of foodborne bacterial diseases. Here, a kind of metal-organic framework (Zr-MOF) modified with Pt nanoparticles (Pt-PCN-224) was designed as a peroxidase-like signal amplifier for microfluidic biosensing of foodborne bacteria. Taking Escherichia coli (E. coli) O157:H7 as a model, a linear range from 2.93 × 102 to 2.93 × 108 CFU/mL and a limit of detection of 2 CFU/mL were obtained. The whole detection procedure was integrated into a single microfluidic chip. Water, milk, and cabbage samples were successfully detected, showing consistency with the results of the standard culture method. Recoveries were in the range from 90 to 110% in spiked testing. The proposed microfluidic biosensor realized the specific and sensitive detection of E. coli O157:H7 within 1 h, implying broad prospects of MOF with biomimetic enzyme activities for biosensing.

Abstract
A multifunctional platform that meets the demands of both bacterial detection and elimination is urgently needed because of their harm to human health. Herein, a "sense-and-treat" biosensor was developed by using immunomagnetic beads (IMBs) and AgPt nanoparticle-decorated PCN-223-Fe (AgPt/PCN-223-Fe, PCN stands for porous coordination network) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The synthesized AgPt/PCN-223-Fe not only exhibited excellent peroxidase-like activity but also could efficiently kill bacteria under near infrared (NIR) irradiation. This biosensor enabled the colorimetric detection of E. coli O157:H7 in the range of 103-108 CFU/mL with a limit of detection of 276 CFU/mL, accompanied with high selectivity, good reproducibility, and wide applicability in diverse real samples. Furthermore, the biosensor possessed a highly effective antibacterial rate of 99.94% against E. coli O157:H7 under 808 nm light irradiation for 20 min. This strategy can provide a reference for the design of novel versatile biosensors for bacterial discrimination and antibacterial applications.

Abstract
In recent years, owing to the miniaturization of the fluidic environment, microfluidic technology offers unique opportunities for the implementation of nano drug delivery systems (NDDSs) production processes. Compared with traditional methods, microfluidics improves the controllability and uniformity of NDDSs. The fast mixing and laminar flow properties achieved in the microchannels can tune the physicochemical properties of NDDSs, including particle size, distribution and morphology, resulting in narrow particle size distribution and high drug-loading capacity. The success of lipid nanoparticles encapsulated mRNA vaccines against coronavirus disease 2019 by microfluidics also confirmed its feasibility for scaling up the preparation of NDDSs via parallelization or numbering-up. In this review, we provide a comprehensive summary of microfluidics-based NDDSs, including the fundamentals of microfluidics, microfluidic synthesis of NDDSs, and their industrialization. The challenges of microfluidics-based NDDSs in the current status and the prospects for future development are also discussed. We believe that this review will provide good guidance for microfluidics-based NDDSs.

Abstract
The accurate and timely detection of bacteria is critically important for human health as it helps to determine the original source of bacterial infections and prevent disease spread. Herein, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were synthesized using polyoxometalates (POMs) as the stabilizing agent. Since AuNPs have glucose oxidase (GOx)-like activity and POMs possess peroxidase (HRP)-like activity, the as-prepared Au@POM nanoparticles have double enzyme-like activities and facilitate cascade reaction. As known, glucose is required as an energy resource during bacterial metabolism, the concentration of glucose decreases with the increase of bacteria content in a system with bacteria and glucose. Therefore, when we use Au@POM nanozymes to trigger the cascade catalysis of glucose and 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB), the concentration of glucose and bacteria can be sensitively detected using the absorbance intensity at 652 nm in the visible spectrum. As demonstration, S. aureus and E. coli were used as model bacteria. The experimental results show that the present method has a good linear relationship in the bacterial concentration range of 1 to 7.5 × 107 colony-forming units (CFU) mL-1 with a detection limit of 5 CFU mL-1. This study shows a great promise of nanozyme cascade reactions in the construction of biosensors and clinical detections.

Abstract
As a major threat to food safety due to their pathogenicity, foodborne bacteria have received much attention. In this paper, we present a one-step and wash-free microfluidic biosensor platform by smartphone for simultaneous multiple foodborne bacteria target single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) detection. This technology is based on the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between the graphene oxide (GO) and fluorescence molecules modified capture ssDNA of the target bacteria ssDNA (ctDNA) which were coated on the microfluidic chips. The fluorescence recovery was recorded by a smartphone fluorescent detector. With an optimal analytical performance, the platform realized the detection of four kinds of bacteria ssDNA simultaneously within 5 min, with the limits of detection (LODs) of 0.17, 0.18, 0.27, and 0.17 nM, respectively. And the throughput analysis of trace amounts of foodborne bacteria ssDNA in milk and water samples were successfully detected. This one-step and wash-free microfluidic biosensor can be used as a tool for food safety analysis.

Abstract
At present, most countries or regions use commercial centrifuges for centrifugation, but this is out of reaching for limited-resource areas. To overcome this problem, a portable electric yo-yo as centrifuge was firstly proposed to obtain serum, and this device can be combined with paper-based analytical devices for enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) analysis from human whole blood. In this study, inflammatory biomarkers C-reactive protein (CRP) and serum amyloid A (SAA) were used as target biomarker to verify the performance of the proposed method. The results shows good performance and their detection limits were determined to be 580 pg/mL for CRP and 800 pg/mL for SAA, respectively. We believe this method provides a new platform of low cost and fast detection for inflammatory biomarkers in the limited-resource settings.

Abstract
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) is commonly applied to the identification of bacteria but rarely used for quantitative detection due to the inhomogeneous crystallization of the matrix leading to the unsatisfactory linear relationship between the sample amount and the mass spectrum signals. Herein, we proposed a noninterference ion addition (NIA) method by electrolysis to improve homogeneous crystallization during the evaporation progress of sample droplets on the target plates. The active metal wire was inserted in the droplet as the anode electrode, and metal ions were released through electrolysis. The directional migration of metal ions under the electric field can hinder the migration of matrix molecules to the boundary and homogenize the matrix crystals by forming spherical crystals. Simultaneously, trace cationic surfactant was added to the droplet for pinning the contact surface to define the circle crystallization region. The metal ions from the anode electrode wire were deposited on the surface of the target plates which served as the cathode. Therefore, ion addition has no interference effect on ionization during MALDI-MS detection. This NIA method benefits the homogeneous crystallization and so improves the quantitative analysis. NIA is suitable for biological samples with different matrices, and bacterial samples could be quantitatively analyzed.

Abstract
Bacterial infections continue to pose serious public health challenges. Though anti-bacterial therapeutics are effective remedies for treating these infections, the emergence of antibiotic resistance has imposed new challenges to treatment. Often, there is a delay in prescribing antibiotics at initial symptom presentation as it can be challenging to clinically differentiate bacterial infections from other organisms (e.g., viruses) causing infection. Moreover, bacterial infections can arise from food, water, or other sources. These challenges have demonstrated the need for rapid identification of bacteria in liquids, food, clinical spaces, and other environments. Conventional methods of bacterial identification rely on culture-based approaches which require long processing times and higher pathogen concentration thresholds. In the past few years, microfluidic devices paired with various bacterial identification methods have garnered attention for addressing the limitations of conventional methods and demonstrating feasibility for rapid bacterial identification with lower biomass thresholds. However, such culture-free methods often require integration of multiple steps from sample preparation to measurement. Research interest in using microfluidic methods for bacterial identification is growing; therefore, this review article is a summary of current advancements in this field with a focus on comparing the efficacy of polymerase chain reaction (PCR), loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), and emerging spectroscopic methods.

Abstract
Detection of foodborne pathogens at an early stage is very important to control food quality and improve medical response. Rapid detection of foodborne pathogens with high sensitivity and specificity is becoming an urgent requirement in health safety, medical diagnostics, environmental safety, and controlling food quality. Despite the existing bacterial detection methods being reliable and widely used, these methods are time-consuming, expensive, and cumbersome. Therefore, researchers are trying to find new methods by integrating spectroscopy techniques with artificial intelligence and advanced materials. Within this progress report, advances in the detection of foodborne pathogens using spectroscopy techniques are discussed. This paper presents an overview of the progress and application of spectroscopy techniques for the detection of foodborne pathogens, particularly new trends in the past few years, including surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, surface plasmon resonance, fluorescence spectroscopy, multiangle laser light scattering, and imaging analysis. In addition, the applications of artificial intelligence, microfluidics, smartphone-based techniques, and advanced materials related to spectroscopy for the detection of bacterial pathogens are discussed. Finally, we conclude and discuss possible research prospects in aspects of spectroscopy techniques for the identification and classification of pathogens.

Abstract
Foodborne pathogens contamination is one of the main sources of food safety problems. Although the existing detection methods have been developed for a long time, the complexity of food samples is still the main factor affecting the detection time and sensitivity, and the rapid separation and enrichment of pathogens is still an objective to be studied. Magnetic separation strategy based on magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) is considered to be an effective tool for rapid separation and enrichment of foodborne pathogens in food. Therefore, this study comprehensively reviews the development of MNPs in the separation of foodborne pathogens over the past decade. First, various biorecognition reagents for identification of foodborne pathogens and their modifications on the surface of MNPs are introduced. Then, the factors affecting the separation of foodborne pathogens, including the size of MNPs, modification methods, separation strategies and separation forms are discussed. Finally, the application of MNPs in integrated detection methods is reviewed. Moreover, current challenges and prospects of MNPs for the analysis of foodborne pathogens are discussed. Further research should focus on the design of multifunctional MNPs, the processing of large-scale samples, the simultaneous analysis of multiple targets, and the development of all-in-one small analytical device with separation and detection.

Abstract
Liquid biopsy is a highly promising method for non-invasive detection of tumor-associated nucleic acid fragments in body fluids but is challenged by the low abundance of nucleic acids of clinical interest and their sequence homology with the vast background of nucleic acids from healthy cells. Recently, programmable endonucleases such as clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) associated protein (Cas) and prokaryotic Argonautes have been successfully used to remove background nucleic acids and enrich mutant allele fractions, enabling their detection with deep next generation sequencing (NGS). However, the enrichment level achievable with these assays is limited by futile binding events and off-target cleavage. To overcome these shortcomings, we conceived a new assay (Programmable Enzyme-Assisted Selective Exponential Amplification, PASEA) that combines the cleavage of wild type alleles with concurrent polymerase amplification. While PASEA increases the numbers of both wild type and mutant alleles, the numbers of mutant alleles increase at much greater rates, allowing PASEA to achieve an unprecedented level of selective enrichment of targeted alleles. By combining CRISPR-Cas9 based cleavage with recombinase polymerase amplification, we converted samples with 0.01% somatic mutant allele fractions (MAFs) to products with 70% MAFs in a single step within 20 min, enabling inexpensive, rapid genotyping with such as Sanger sequencers. Furthermore, PASEA's extraordinary efficiency facilitates sensitive real-time detection of somatic mutant alleles at the point of care with custom designed Exo-RPA probes. Real-time PASEA' performance was proved equivalent to clinical amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS)-PCR and NGS when testing over hundred cancer patients' samples. This strategy has the potential to reduce the cost and time of cancer screening and genotyping, and to enable targeted therapies in resource-limited settings.

Abstract
Biosensors are powerful analytical tools used to identify and detect target molecules. Electrochemical biosensors, which combine biosensing with electrochemical analysis techniques, are efficient analytical instruments that translate concentration signals into electrical signals, enabling the quantitative and qualitative analysis of target molecules. Electrochemical biosensors have been widely used in various fields of detection and analysis due to their high sensitivity, superior selectivity, quick reaction time, and inexpensive cost. However, the signal changes caused by interactions between a biological probe and a target molecule are very weak and difficult to capture directly by using detection instruments. Therefore, various signal amplification strategies have been proposed and developed to increase the accuracy and sensitivity of detection systems. This review serves as a reference for biosensor and detector research, as it introduces the research progress of electrochemical signal amplification strategies in olfactory and taste evaluation. It also discusses the latest signal amplification strategies currently being employed in electrochemical biosensors for nanomaterial development, enzyme labeling, and nucleic acid amplification techniques, and highlights the most recent work in using cell tissues as biosensitive elements.

Abstract
The lateral flow assay (LFA) is an extensively used paper-based platform for the rapid and on-site detection of different analytes. The method is user-friendly with no need for sophisticated operation and only includes adding sample. Generally, antibodies are employed as the biorecognition elements in the LFA. However, antibodies possess several disadvantages including poor stability, high batch-to-batch variation, long development time, high price and need for ethical approval and cold chain. Because of these limitations, aptamers screened by an in vitro process can be a good alternative to antibodies as biorecognition molecules in the LFA. In recent years, aptamer-based LFAs have been investigated for the detection of different analytes in point-of-care diagnostics. In this review, we summarize the applications of aptamer technology in LFAs in clinical diagnostic rapid tests for the detection of biomarkers, microbial analytes, hormones and antibiotics. Performance, advantages and drawbacks of the developed assays are also discussed.
