Biosens Bioelectron 2024; 259:116402.

Abstract
In this work, a high-performance conjugated microporous polymer (CMP) decorated with BiOBr (Tr(PhXOD)3-CMP/BiOBr) is synthesized to application in construction of ultrasensitive photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensor for sensing miRNA-122, by firstly coupling with efficient clip toehold-mediated allosteric bicycle strand displacement (ABSD). Notably, the Tr(PhXOD)3-CMP/BiOBr not only owns self-enhanced D-A-D structure that extremely shortens migration distance of photo-generated electron, but also forms Z-type heterostructure for accelerating electron-hole separation, thereby significantly enhancing the photocurrent with 10-fold higher than commonly used methods. Meanwhile, the clip toehold-mediated ABSD based on ternary linkage structure transformation avoids the attrition of invading strand, endowing the conservation of high concentration for undergoing rapid reaction with high-efficiency DNA amplification, which dramatically improves reaction time and superior target conversion. The experimental results indicate that proposed PEC biosensor had a high sensitivity to miRNA-122 with a detection limit of 0.49 fM, which provides a newly organic/inorganic photosensitive nanomaterials and efficient DNA strand displacement in bioanalytical and early clinical disease diagnosis.

Highly sensitive photoelectrochemical biosensing detection of early cardiac injury enabled by novel self-assembled Bi 2O 3/MgIn 2S 4 photoelectrode coupled with ZnSnO 3 quencher. Talanta 2024; 276:126272.

Abstract
The development of photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensors plays a critical role in enabling timely intervention and personalized treatment for cardiac injury. Herein, a novel approach is presented for the fabrication of highly sensitive PEC biosensor employing Bi2O3/MgIn2S4 heterojunction for the ultrasensitive detection of heart fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP). The Bi2O3/MgIn2S4 heterojunction, synthesized through in-situ growth of MgIn2S4 on Bi2O3 nanoplates, offers superior attributes including a larger specific surface area and more homogeneous distribution, leading to enhanced sensing sensitivity. The well-matched valence and conduction bands of Bi2O3 and MgIn2S4 effectively suppress the recombination of photogenerated carriers and facilitate electron transfer, resulting in a significantly improved photocurrent signal response. And the presence of the secondary antibody marker (ZnSnO3) introduces steric hindrance that hinders electron transfer between ascorbic acid and the photoelectrode, leading to a reduction in photocurrent signal. Additionally, the competition between the ZnSnO3 marker and the Bi2O3/MgIn2S4 heterojunction material for the excitation light source further diminishes the photocurrent signal response. After rigorous repeatability and selectivity tests, the PEC biosensor exhibited excellent performance, and the linear detection range of the biosensor was determined to be 0.05 pg/mL to 100 ng/mL with a remarkable detection limit of 0.029 pg/mL (S/N = 3).

Abstract
Photoelectrochemical (PEC) nanobiosensors integrate molecular (bio)recognition elements with semiconductor/plasmonic photoactive nanomaterials to produce measurable signals after light-induced reactions. Recent advancements in PEC nanobiosensors, using light-matter interactions, have significantly improved sensitivity, specificity, and signal-to-noise ratio in detecting (bio)analytes. Tunable nanomaterials activated by a wide spectral radiation window coupled to electrochemical transduction platforms have further improved detection by stabilizing and amplifying electrical signals. This work reviews PEC biosensors based on nanomaterials like metal oxides, carbon nitrides, quantum dots, and transition metal chalcogenides (TMCs), showing their superior optoelectronic properties and analytical performance for the detection of clinically relevant biomarkers. Furthermore, it highlights the innovative role of red light and NIR-activated PEC nanobiosensors in enhancing charge transfer processes, protecting them from biomolecule photodamage in vitro and in vivo applications. Overall, advances in PEC detection systems have the potential to revolutionize rapid and accurate measurements in clinical diagnostic applications. Their integration into miniaturized devices also supports the development of portable, easy-to-use diagnostic tools, facilitating point-of-care (POC) testing solutions and real-time monitoring.

Abstract
Herein, a novel photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptasensor using gold nanoparticles@3,4,9,10-perylene tetracarboxylic (Au@PTCA) Schottky junction as the effective optoelectronic material and lead ion (Pb2+)-G quadruplex structure as the efficient quencher was constructed for the detection of Pb2+ with high sensitivity and excellent selectivity. Au@PTCA Schottky junction, which was proposed by the in situ reduction of Au NPs on the PTCA surface, exhibited a strong unidirectional conductivity, which could generate a significantly enhanced PEC signal compared with the pure PTCA. The Pb2+-G quadruplex structure with a large spatial hindrance effect was formed when the target Pb2+ was present owing to the occurrence of the specific recognition between Pb2+ and its aptamer S1. The formation of a Pb2+-G quadruplex structure effectively quenched the initial signal generated by the Au@PTCA Schottky junction, which was derived from restricted electron transport and light transmission. The obtained prominently decreased PEC signal could achieve the quantitative detection of Pb2+ from 0.5 pM to 500 nM, with a low detection limit of 0.17 pM. The preparation time of this PEC aptasensor was 13 h, and the time for PEC measurement depended on the illumination time, which switched off-on-off for 10 s-20 s-10 s. The study proposed here with high sensitivity and excellent selectivity for Pb2+ analysis offered a novel and reliable tool for environmental monitoring related to heavy metal ions.

Abstract
CdIn2S4 and zinc tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (ZnTCPP) were synthesized by hydrothermal method, and an organic dye-sensitized inorganic semiconductor ZnTCPP/CdIn2S4 type II heterojunction was constructed on a fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrate electrode. A sandwich immunostructure for signal-attenuation photoelectrochemical (PEC) detection of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) was constructed using the ZnTCPP/CdIn2S4/FTO photoanode and a horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-ZnFe2O4-Ab2-bovine serum albumin (BSA) immunolabeling complex. The bioenzyme HRP and the HRP-like nanozyme ZnFe2O4 can co-catalyze the oxidation of 4-chloro-1-naphthol (4-CN) by H2O2 to produce an insoluble precipitate on the photoanode, thus notably reducing the anodic photocurrent for quantitative determination of cTnI. Under the optimal conditions, the photocurrent at 0 V vs. SCE in 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.40) containing 0.1 M ascorbic acid was linear with the logarithm of cTnI concentration from 500 fg mL-1 to 50.0 ng mL-1, and the limit of detection (LOD, S/N = 3) is 0.15 pg mL-1. Spiked recoveries were 95.1% ~ 104% for assay of cTnI in human serum samples.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play several crucial roles in the physiological and pathological processes of the human body. They are considered as important biomarkers for the diagnosis of various disorders. Thus, rapid, sensitive, selective, and affordable detection of miRNAs is of great importance. However, the small size, low abundance, and highly similar sequences of miRNAs impose major challenges to their accurate detection in biological samples. In recent years, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been applied as promising sensing materials for the fabrication of different biosensors due to their distinctive characteristics, such as high porosity and surface area, tunable pores, outstanding adsorption affinities, and ease of functionalization. In this review, the applications of MOFs and MOF-derived materials in the fabrication of fluorescence, electrochemical, chemiluminescence, electrochemiluminescent, and photoelectrochemical biosensors for the detection of miRNAs and their detection principle and analytical performance are discussed. This paper attempts to provide readers with a comprehensive knowledge of the fabrication and sensing mechanisms of miRNA detection platforms.

Abstract
Quorum sensing signal molecule is an important biomarker released by some microorganisms, which can regulate the adhesion and aggregation of marine microorganisms on the surface of engineering facilities. Thus, it is significant to exploit a convenient method that can effectively monitor the formation and development of marine biofouling. In this work, an advanced photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptamer biosensing platform was established and firstly applied for the rapid and ultrasensitive determination of N-(3-Oxodecanoyl)-l-homoserine lactone (3-O-C10-HL) released from marine fouling microorganism Ponticoccus sp. PD-2. The visible-light-driven Bi2WO6/Bi2S3 heterojunction derived from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) CAU-17 and self-screened aptamer were employed as the photoactive materials and bioidentification elements, respectively. Appropriate amount of MoS2 quantum dots (QDs) conjugated with single-stranded DNA were introduced by hybridization to enhance the photocurrent response of the PEC biosensor. The self-screening aptamer can specifically recognize 3-O-C10-HL, accompanied by increasing the steric hindrance and forcing MoS2 QDs to leave the electrode surface, resulting in an obvious reduction of photocurrent and achieving a dual-inhibition signal amplification effect. Under the optimized conditions, the photocurrent response of PEC aptasensor was linear with 3-O-C10-HL concentration from 1 nM to 10 μM, and the detection limit was as low as 0.26 nM. The detection strategy also showed a high reproducibility, superior specificity and good stability. This work not only provides a simple, rapid and ultrasensitive PEC aptamer biosensing strategy for monitoring quorum sensing signal molecules in marine biofouling, but also broadens the application of MOFs-based heterojunctions in PEC sensors.

Abstract
With the increasing consumption of fossil fuels, the development of clean and renewable alternative fuels has become a top priority. Hydrogen (H2) is an ideal primary clean energy source for its extremely high gravimetric energy density, carbon-free combustion, and abundant natural resources. Photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) water splitting is among the most promising approaches for converting sunlight and water into H2. However, the cost-effectiveness and the overall solar to hydrogen conversion efficiency of PEC water splitting are still big challenges. In the past few decades, several studies have been devoted to this technology, and it is essential to develop economical photoelectrocatalysts with high conversion efficiency. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a comprehensive and updated review of recent advances in the design, manufacture, and modification of efficient PEC water splitting systems. This review first starts with the basic mechanism of photoelectrochemical water splitting. Then the problems in PEC water splitting are discussed, and the methods of photoelectrode modulation such as nanostructure fabrication, doping engineering, surface modification, and heterojunction construction are introduced. Finally, the critical challenges and future trends/perspectives in the PEC water splitting are discussed.

Abstract
Herein, the excitation wavelength-dependent responses of the molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensors were investigated, using acetaminophen (AP), rutin (RT) and perfluorooctanoate (PFOA) as the model templates, pyrrole as functional monomer, CuInS2@ZnS/TiO2 NTs as the basic photoelectrode. With wavelength λ > 240 nm, the photocurrent of MIPPFOA enhanced at higher concentrations of PFOA. With increasing AP concentration, the photocurrents of MIPAP could decline with λ < 271 nm, not change at λ = 270 nm, or increase with λ > 270 nm. As RT concentration increased, the photocurrents of MIPRT could decrease (λ < 431 nm), not change (λ = 431 nm) or increase (λ > 431 nm). The PEC responses depend on the comprehensive interaction of two contrary mechanisms from the template molecules within the MIP membrane. The photocurrent is enhanced by the role of the electron donor for photo-generated holes but attenuated due to the steric hindrance effect and the excitation light intensity loss via absorption or scattering. The apparent molar absorption coefficient of AP and RT within MIP membranes are 9.1-19.4 folds of those measured from dilute solutions. By using a routine UV lamp as the light source, the photocurrents of MIPRT at 254 nm and MIPAP at 365 nm were used to determine RT and AP, with the detection limits of 5.3 and 16 nM, respectively. The interference from the non-specific adsorption of interferents on the surfaces of MIPAP and MIPRT was reduced by one order of magnitude via a differential strategy.

Abstract
Narrow photo-absorption range and low carrier utilization are significant barriers that restrict the antitumor efficiency of 2D bismuth oxyhalide (BiOX, X = Cl, Br, I) nanosheets (NSs). Introducing oxygen vacancy (OV) defects can expand the absorption range and improve carrier utilization, which are crucial but also challenging. In this study, a series of BiOxCl NSs with different OV defect concentrations (x = 1, 0.7, 0.5) is developed, which shows full spectrum absorption and strong absorption in the second near-infrared region (NIR-II). Density functional theory calculations are utilized to calculate the crystal structure and density states of BiOxCl, which confirm that part of the carriers is separated by OV enhanced internal electric field to improve carrier utilization. The carriers without redox reaction can be trapped in the OV, leading to great majority of photo-generated carriers promoting the photothermal performance. Triggered by single NIR-II (1064 nm), BiOxCl NSs' bidirectional efficient utilization of carriers achieves synchronously combined phototherapy, leading to enhanced tumor ablation and multimodal diagnostic in vitro and vivo. It is thus believed that this work provides an innovative strategy to design and construct nanoplatforms of indirect band gap semiconductors for clinical phototheranostics.

Abstract
Programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1)/programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) checkpoint inhibitor-based immunotherapy has provided a unique and potent weapon against cancer in clinical practice. The likelihood of achieving beneficial effects from PD-L1/PD-1 immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy is clinically assessed by detecting PD-L1 expression through invasive tissue biopsies. However, PD-L1 expression is susceptible to tumor heterogeneity and dynamic response to ICB therapy. Moreover, currently, anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy still faces challenges of the low targeting efficiency of antibody drugs and the risk of immune-associated adverse events. To overcome these issues, advanced nanotechnology has been developed for the purpose of quantitative, non-invasive, and dynamic analyses of PD-L1, and to enhance the efficiency of ICB therapy. In this review, we first introduce the nanoprobe-assisted in vitro/in vivo modalities for the selective and sensitive analysis of PD-L1 during the diagnostic and therapeutic process. On the other hand, the feasibility of fabricating diverse functional nanocarriers as smart delivery systems for precisely targeted delivery of PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors and combined therapies is highlighted. Finally, the current challenges are discussed and future perspectives for PD-L1-targeted cancer theranostics in preclinical research and clinical settings are proposed.

Abstract
Human health and ecology are seriously threatened by harmful environmental contaminants. It is essential to develop efficient and simple methods for their detection. Environmental pollutants can be detected using photoelectrochemical (PEC) detection technologies. The key ingredient in the PEC sensing system is the photoactive material. Due to the unique characteristics, such as a large surface area, enhanced exposure of active sites, and effective mass capture and diffusion, porous materials have been regarded as ideal sensing materials for the construction of PEC sensors. Extensive efforts have been devoted to the development and modification of PEC sensors based on porous materials. However, a review of the relationship between detection performance and the structure of porous materials is still lacking. In this work, we present an overview of PEC sensors based on porous materials. A number of typical porous materials are introduced separately, and their applications in PEC detection of different types of environmental pollutants are also discussed. More importantly, special attention has been paid to how the porous material's structure affects aspects like sensitivity, selectivity, and detection limits of the associated PEC sensor. In addition, future research perspectives in the area of PEC sensors based on porous materials are presented.

Abstract
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is a major biomarker for clinical diagnosis, but detection methods of ALP are limited in sensitivity and selectivity. In this paper, a novel method for ALP determination is proposed. A photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensor was prepared by growing UiO-tetratopic tetrakis (4-carbox-yphenyl) porphyrin (TCPP) in situ between layered Ti3C2 through a one-pot hydrothermal method. The obtained Schottky heterojunction photoelectric material Ti3C2@UiO-TCPP not only has a large light absorption range but also greatly improves the efficiency of photogenerated electron hole separation and thereby enhances sensitivity for PEC detection. The phosphate group on the phosphorylated polypeptide was utilized to form a Zr-O-P bond with the zirconium ion on UiO-66, and then photocurrent decreases due to the steric hindrance effect of phosphorylated polypeptides, that is, the hindrance of electron transfer between the photoelectric material and a solution. The specific interaction between ALP and phosphorylated polypeptides shears the bond between phosphate and zirconium ion on UiO-66 in the peptides then weakens the hindrance effect and increases the photocurrent, thus realizing ALP detection. The linear range of ALP is 0.03-10,000 U·L-1, and the detection limit is 0.012 U·L-1. The method is highly sensitive and selective, and has been applied in detection of ALP in serum samples.

Abstract
This work designed a liposome-mediated photocurrent polarity switching immunosensor depending on the reversed photocurrent of iodine-doped BiOCl (I-BOC) nanoflowers induced by the released methylene blue (MB) for the detection of prostate-specific antigen (PSA). Initially, MB-loaded liposomes as indicators were confined within the microplates to participate in the sandwiched immunoreaction and lysed under the treatment of Triton X-100 to release numerous MB. Owing to the host-guest recognition between β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and MB, the released MB was immobilized on the β-CD-modified I-BOC/FTO electrode and triggered the photocurrent polarity reversal from cathodic photocurrent to anodic photocurrent. The sensing platform realized an accurate and sensitive assay of PSA due to the effective elimination of false-positive/negative signals in a linear range of 0.02-50 ng mL-1 with a limit of detection of 12 pg mL-1. Furthermore, this work not only conjugated liposome-assisted signal amplification strategy with the photocurrent polarity switching system but also provided a novel pathway for various protein determinations.

Abstract
A heterojunction of CdSe quantum dots in situ grown on the perovskite CsPb2Br5 (CsPb2Br5/CdSe) for water-stable photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensing was simply synthesized using the hot-injection method. Due to the inherent built-in electric field and the matching band structure between CsPb2Br5 and CdSe, the CsPb2Br5/CdSe p-n heterojunction demonstrates enhanced photoelectrochemical properties. Accelerated interfacial charge transfer and increased electron-hole pair separation enable hydrolysis-resistant CsPb2Br5/CdSe sensors to exhibit heightened sensitivity with an ultra-low detection limit (0.0124 μM) and a wide linear range (0.4-303.9 μM) in subsequent dopamine detection. Moreover, the CsPb2Br5/CdSe sensors show excellent anti-interference ability, as well as remarkable stability and reproducibility in water solvent. It is noteworthy that this work is conducted in an aqueous environment, which provides an inspiring and convenient way for photoelectric and photoelectrocatalysis applications based on water-resistant perovskites.

Abstract
This paper presents the development of a photoelectrochemical sensor for hypochlorous acid (HOCl) detection, employing a phenothiazine-based organic photosensitizer (Dye-PZ). The designed probe, Dye-PZ, follows a D-π-A structure with phenothiazine as the electron-donating group and a cyano-substituted pyridine unit as the electron-accepting group. A specific reaction of the phenothiazine sulfur atom with HOCl enables selective recognition. The covalent immobilization of Dye-PZ onto a titanium dioxide nanorod-coated fluorine-doped tin oxide electrode (FTO/TiO2) using bromo-silane coupling agent (BrPTMS) resulted in the fabrication of the photoanode FTO/TiO2/BrPTMS/Dye-PZ. The photoanode exhibited a significant photoresponse under visible-light irradiation, with a subsequent reduction in photocurrent upon reaction with HOCl. The oxidation of the phenothiazine sulfur atom to a sulfoxide diminished the internal charge transfer (ICT) effect. Leveraging this principle, the successful photoelectrochemical sensing of HOCl was achieved. The sensor showed high stability, excellent reproducibility, and selective sensitivity for HOCl detection. Our study provides a novel approach for the development of efficient photoelectrochemical sensors based on organic photosensitizers, with promising applications in water quality monitoring and biosensing.

Abstract
Microcystin LR (MC-LR) is a hazardous cyanotoxin produced by cyanobacteria during freshwater eutrophication, which can cause liver cancer. Here, a photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptasensor based on methylene blue (MB)-loaded Ni-MOF composite (Ni-MOF/MB) with spatial confinement was constructed for the sensitive detection of MC-LR. Ni-MOF with two-dimensional sheet structure was prepared via a liquid-liquid interface synthesis method with environmental-friendly solvent and milder reaction conditions. Benefiting from the uniform pore size, Ni-MOF acted as reaction platform to anchor the photosensitive molecule MB. The electron donor, ascorbic acid (AA), was produced by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) loaded on DNA strand catalyzing ascorbic acid phosphate. The generated AA was absorbed by Ni-MOF/MB, thereby effectively improving the utilization of AA and avoiding the external environment interferences to enlarge the photocurrent of MB. For analysis, ALP-labeled aptamer can specifically recognize MC-LR by forming a complex to strip from aptasensor, thus leading to a decreased photocurrent. The developed PEC aptasensor offered a linear range of 10 fM-100 pM with a detection limit of 6 fM. It was successfully employed for detecting MC-LR in farm water and fish meat, and the results were validated by ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. This method presents a new idea of MOF-limited domain for PEC aptasensing.

Abstract
Manipulating the dispersibility and reactivity of two-dimensional nanomaterials in collagen fibers (CFs) matrix has aroused attention in the fabrication of multifunctional collagen-based nanocomposites. Here, α‑zirconium phosphate nanoplatelets (ZrP NPs) were surface-functionalized with gallic acid (GA) to afford ZrP-GA NPs for engineering CFs matrix. The influence of ZrP-GA NPs on the ultraviolet barrier, antibacterial, and flame-retardant properties of resultant CFs matrix were investigated. Microstructural analysis revealed that ZrP-GA NPs were dispersed and bound within the collagen fibrils and onto the collagen strands in the CFs matrix. The resultant CFs matrix also maintained typical D-periodic structures of collagen fibrils and native branching and interwoven structures of CFs networks with increased porosity and enhanced ultraviolet barrier properties. Inhibition zone testing presented excellent antibacterial activities of the CFs matrix owing to surface grafting of antibacterial GA. Thanks to enhanced dispersion and binding of ZrP NPs with the CFs matrix by surface-functionalization with GA, the resultant CFs matrix reduced the peak heat release rate and the total heat release by 42.9 % and 39.0 %, respectively, highlighting improved flame-retardant properties. We envision that two-dimensional nanomaterials possess great potential in developing reasonable collagen-based nanocomposites towards the manufacture of emergent multifunctional collagen fibers-based wearable electronics.

Piezoelectric polarization induced by dual piezoelectric materials ZnO nanosheets/MoS 2 heterostructure for enhancing photoelectrochemical water splitting.

Abstract
Zinc oxide (ZnO) has a broad range of applications in piezo-photoelectrochemical water splitting. However, the narrow light absorption range and high photogenerated carrier recombination efficiency make ZnO somewhat limited in applying piezo-photoelectrochemical water splitting. Heterogeneous structure construction is a superior handle to these two drawbacks. Herein, few-layer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanospheres are compounded on ZnO nanosheets (NSs) to form a dual-piezoelectric-material heterojunction of ZnO NSs/MoS2. The photocurrent density of ZnO NSs/MoS2 reaches 0.68 mA/cm2 at 1.23 V vs. RHE under ultrasonic vibrations. It is 2.4 times higher than that of ZnO NSs under ultrasonic vibrations. The efficient piezo-photoelectrochemical performance is attributed to increased absorption range and polarization field. On the one hand, the narrow band gap of the few-layer MoS2 widens the light absorption range of ZnO. On the other hand, compared to pure ZnO NSs, ZnO NSs/MoS2 has an enhanced polarization field under ultrasonic vibrations due to the piezoelectric properties of dual piezoelectric materials, which dramatically accelerates the electron transfer and suppresses the recombination of between electrons and holes. This work provides a new approach to constructing photoelectrodes with effective piezoelectric photocatalytic properties.

NAD + mediated photoelectrochemical biosensor for histone deacetylase Sirt1 detection based on CuO-BiVO 4-AgNCs heterojunction and hybridization chain reaction amplification. Anal Chim Acta 2023; 1284:341989. [PMID: 37996156 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2023.341989] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2023] [Revised: 10/25/2023] [Accepted: 10/30/2023] [Indexed: 11/25/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Histone deacetylate Sirt1 has been involved in many important biological processes and is closely related to the occurrence and development of many diseases. Therefore, the accurate detection of Sirt1 is of great significance for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases caused by Sirt1 and the development of related drugs. RESULTS In this work, a photoelectrochemical biosensor was developed for Sirt1 detection based on the NAD + mediated Sirt1 recognition and E. Coli DNA ligase activity. CuO-BiVO4p-n heterojunction was employed as the photoactive material, rolling circle amplification (RCA), hybridization chain reaction (HCR) and AgNCs were used as triple signal amplifications. As a bifunctional cofactor, NAD+ played a crucial role for Sirt1 detection, where the peptide deacetylation catalyzed by Sirt1 consumed NAD+, and the decreased amount of NAD + inhibited the activity of E. Coli DNA ligase, leading to the failure on RCA reaction, and improving the HCR reaction. Finally, AgNCs were generated using C-rich DNA as carrier. The surface plasmon effect of AgNCs and its heterojunction with CuO and BiVO4 accelerated the transfer rate of photogenerated carriers and improved the photocurrent signal. When the detection range was 0.001-200 nM, the detection limit of the biosensor was 0.76 pM (S/N = 3). SIGNIFICANCE The applicability of the method was evaluated by studying the effects of known inhibitors nicotinamide and environmental pollutant halogenated carbazole on Sirt1 enzyme activity. The results showed that this method can be used as a new platform for screening Sirt1 enzyme inhibitors, and also provided a new biomarker for evaluating the ecotoxicological effects of environmental pollutants.

Abstract
In the field of oil refining, the presence of excessive residual phosphorus in crude oil can significantly impact its quality, thereby emphasizing the necessity for compact and convenient testing equipment. This study primarily focuses on developing of self-powered biosensor (SPB) using immobilizing Choline Oxidase with a photoactive ternary nanocomposite complex (CHOx-BiOI-rGO-Fe3O4 NPs-ITO) as the anode and utilizing a Pt electrode as the cathode. The successful preparation of the ternary composite photoelectrode for the anode was confirmed through a range of characterization techniques, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), N2 absorption/desorption, Dynamic light scattering (DLS), and Ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflection spectrometer (UV-vis DRS). The electrochemical and photoelectrochemical properties were assessed using an electrochemical workstation, revealing a significant enhancement photoelectrical responsiveness attributed to the formation of heterojunction structures. The SPB exhibited a remarkable linear relationship between the instantaneous photocurrent and phosphatidylcholine (PC) concentration, with a regression equation of I (μA) = 39.62071C (mM) + 3.47271. The linear range covered a concentration range of 0.01-10 mM, and the detection limit (S/N = 3) was determined to be 0.008 mM. It demonstrated excellent reproducibility and storage stability, positioning it a promising alternative to High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for accurate quantification of PC content in rhodotorula glutinis oil. The standard recovery PC content ranged from 98.48% to 103.53%, with a relative standard deviation (RSD) ranging from 1.4% to 2.4%. This research presents a convenient and precise detection device that has the potential to address the issue of lagging detection in the oil refining process.

Abstract
Photocurrent polarity reversal is a switching process between the anodic and cathodic pathways and is critical for eliminating false positivity and improving detection sensitivity in photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensing. In this study, we construct a PEC sensor with excellent photocurrent polarity reversal induced by ascorbic acid (AA) as an electron donor with the energy level matching the photoactive material zirconium metal-organic framework (ZrMOF). The ZrMOF-modified electrode demonstrates cathodic photocurrent in the presence of O2 as an electron acceptor, while the anodic photocurrent is generated in the presence of AA, achieving photocurrent polarity reversal. By the in situ release of AA from AA-encapsulated apoferritin modified with DNA 2 (AA@APO-S2) as a detection tag in the presence of trypsin after the recognition of hairpin DNA-modified indium tin oxide to the reaction product of aptamer/DNA 1 with the target protein and the following rolling cycle amplification for introducing the detection tag to the sensing interface, the reversed photocurrent shows an enhanced photocurrent response to the target protein, leading to a highly sensitive PEC sensing strategy. This strategy realizes the detection of vascular endothelial growth factor 165 with good specificity, a wide linear range, and a low detection limit down to 5.3 fM. The actual sample analysis offers the detection results of the proposed PEC sensor comparable to those of commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay tests, indicating the promising application of the photocurrent polarity reversal-based PEC sensing strategy in biomolecule detection and clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is considered a new standard for the detection of diabetes mellitus because it is more accurate than regular blood sugar tests and there is no need to take blood on an empty stomach or at a specific time. In this work, we have developed a novel optical fiber biosensor, referred to as the "WaveFlex biosensor," which operates on the principles of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) plasmonic wave. The sensor is fabricated using an innovative S-tapered and waist-expanded technique, enabling it to effectively detect HbA1c. Compared to the HbA1c sensors currently in use, HbA1c optical fiber sensors possess the characteristics of high sensitivity, low cost, and strong anti-interference ability. The gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), cerium oxide (CeO2) nanorods (NRs), and tungsten disulfide (WS2) nanosheets (NSs) are functionalized to improve the effectiveness of the fiber sensor on the probe surface. AuNPs are utilized to generate LSPR by the excitation of evanescent waves to amplify the sensing signal. The CeO2-NRs can have a strong metal-carrier interaction with AuNPs, enhancing the cascade of CeO2-NRs and AuNPs. The WS2-NSs with layered fold structure have a large specific surface area. Therefore, the combination of CeO2-NRs and WS2-NSs is conducive to the binding of antibodies and the addition of sites. The functionalized antibodies on the fiber make the sensor probe capable of specific selection. The developed probe is applied to test the HbA1c solution over concentrations of 0-1000 µg/mL, and the sensitivity and limits of detection of 1.195×10-5 a.u./(µg/mL) and 1.66 µg/mL are obtained, respectively. The sensor probe is also evaluated using assays for reproducibility, reusability, selectivity, and pH. According to the findings, a novel method for detecting blood glucose based on a plasmonic biosensor is proposed.

Abstract
Designing new biochemical sensors and achieving selectivity and high-sensitivity analysis is one of main research directions for immunoassays. Herein, a liposome-amplification photoelectrochemical (PEC) immunoassay was developed using ultrathin mesoporous bismuth chloride oxide nanosheets (BiOCl MSCN) for the highly selective and sensitive detection of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). Based on good photocurrent response of BiOCl MSCN toward dopamine, a liposome-conjugated secondary antibody loaded with dopamine was added for specific recognition in the presence of CEA. After the lysis treatment, the liberated dopamine was injected into the three-electrode electrolytic cell to enhance the photocurrent of BiOCl MSCN. Under the optimized conditions, the constructed liposome-mediated PEC immunoassay showed high sensitivity against CEA, with a dynamic response in the linear range of 0.05 ng mL-1 to 100 ng mL-1 and a detection limit of 35 pg mL-1. The present study proposes a new approach to the liposome-mediated PEC immunoassay constructed on ultrathin mesoporous BiOCl nanosheets, which can be used to target further the study of the sensing mechanism.

Abstract
Detecting CO2 in complex gas mixtures is challenging due to the presence of competitive gases in the ambient atmosphere. Photoelectrochemical (PEC) techniques offer a solution, but material selection and specificity remain limiting. Here, we constructed a hydrogen-bonded organic framework material based on a porphyrin tecton decorated with diaminotriazine (DAT) moieties. The DAT moieties on the porphyrin molecules not only facilitate the formation of complementary hydrogen bonds between the tectons but also function as recognition sites in the resulting porous HOF materials for the selective adsorption of CO2 . In addition, the in-plane growth of FDU-HOF-2 into anisotropic molecular sheets with large areas of up to 23000 μm2 and controllable thickness between 0.298 and 2.407 μm were realized in yields of over 89 % by a simple solution-processing method. The FDU-HOF-2 can be directly grown and deposited onto different substrates including silica, carbon, and metal oxides by self-assembly in situ in formic acid. As a proof of concept, a screen-printing electrode deposited with FDU-HOF-2 was fabricate as a label-free photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensor for CO2 detection. Such a signal-off PEC sensor exhibits low detection limit for CO2 (2.3 ppm), reusability (at least 30 cycles), and long-term working stability (at least 30 days).

Abstract
Lead ion (Pb2+) is one of the heavy metal contaminants within the environment, which can seriously affect biological health. Thus, it is very important to detect lead ions, especially exceeding the standard concentration (100 ng/mL). In this work, we have developed a photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptamer sensor with Z-scheme Fe2O3/g-C3N4 heterojunction as a substrate material for sensitive detection of Pb2+. Specifically, Fe2O3/g-C3N4 is employed as a substrate with a powerful and stable photocurrent response. Au and DNA-1 connected to the substrate material via the Au-S bond and increased the electron conduction. Marking DNA-2 with ZnO effectively reduced the light absorption intensity resulting in a lower photocurrent response. Surprisingly, the Pb2+ PEC sensor showed good linearity in the detection range of 62 pg/mL to 1 μg/mL with a detection limit as low as 7.9 pg/mL (S/N = 3). The sensor showed stable recovery and low relative standard deviation in real sample detection. Additionally, the sensor exhibited excellent stability, selectivity, and reproducibility. The reproducibility of the electrodes was evaluated, and the accuracy of the individual electrode current values was calculated to range from 0.5% to 2.71% with an RSD of 1.74%. Such PEC sensor guarantees to supply a brand-new approach to the detection of Pb2+.

Abstract
MicroRNA-21 (miRNA-21) is currently the only known oncogenic miRNA that is upregulated in almost all malignant tumors and exhibits a broad spectrum of tumor recognition characteristics. It holds significant value in the early diagnosis, malignant degree assessment, and prognostic evaluation of tumors. In this study, a novel dual-mode self-powered sensing platform is developed using Au nanoparticles/graphdiyne as the electrode substrate and combined with DNA nanoring for highly sensitive and specific detection of miRNA-21. The DNA nanoring structure, which is easy to prepare and contains multiple recognition sites, induces significant electrochemical/colorimetric signal responses of the signaling molecule methylene blue. Under optimal conditions, the linear ranges of the electrochemical and colorimetric detection modes of this self-powered sensor are 0.1 fM-100 pM and 0.1 fM-10 nM, respectively, with the detection limits of 35.1 aM and 61.6 aM (S/N=3). This strategy provides a new reference for the sensitive detection of microRNA and has immense potential for application in the screening and detection of clinical nucleic acid diseases.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) is essential in oxidative stress and signal regulation of organs of animal body. Realizing in vitro quantification of H2 O2 released from organs is significant, but faces challenges due to short lifetime of H2 O2 and complex bio-environment. Herein, rationally designed and constructed a photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensor for in vitro sensing of H2 O2 , in which atomically dispersed iron active sites (Hemin) modified graphdiyne (Fe-GDY) serves as photoelectrode and catalyzes photo-electro-Fenton process. Sensitivity of Fe-GDY electrode is enhanced 8 times under illumination compared with dark condition. The PEC H2 O2 sensor under illumination delivers a wide linear range from 0.1 to 48 160 µm and a low detection limit of 33 nm, while demonstrating excellent selectivity and stability. The high performance of Fe-GDY is attributed to, first, energy levels matching of GDY and Hemin that effectively promotes the injection of photo-generated electrons from GDY to Fe3+ for reduced Fe2+ , which facilitates the Fe3+ /Fe2+ cycle. Second, the Fe2+ actively catalyzes H2 O2 to OH- through the Fenton process, thereby improving the sensitivity. The PEC sensor demonstrates in vitro quantification of H2 O2 released from different organs, providing a promising approach for molecular sensing and disease diagnosis in organ levels.

Abstract
A novel extended-gate field-effect transistor (FET) photoelectrochemical (EGFET PEC) sensor was designed for highly sensitive detection of L-cysteine (L-Cys). TiO2 was initially modified on the ITO electrode by the sol-gel dip-coating method and calcined to produce TiO2/ITO. Then, CdS was synthesized on the TiO2 surface by hydrothermal method to obtain the CdS-TiO2 heterojunction material. CdS/TiO2/ITO was connected to the gate of the FET to obtain an EGFET PEC sensor. Under the irradiation of a xenon lamp simulating visible light, the CdS/TiO2 heterojunction composite absorbs light energy to produce photogenerated electron-hole pairs, which have strong photocatalytic oxidation activity and oxidize L-Cys covalently identified by Cd(II) through CdS covalent. These pairs generate a photovoltage that controls the current between the source and the drain to detect L-Cys. Under the optimized experimental conditions, the optical drain current (ID) of the sensor exhibited a good linear relationship with the logarithm of L-Cys in the range of 5.0 × 10-9-1.0 × 10-6 mol/L, and the detection limit was 1.3 × 10-9 mol/L (S/N = 3), which is lower than the values reported by other detection methods. Results showed that the CdS/TiO2/ITO EGFET PEC sensor revealed high sensitivity and good selectivity. The sensor has been used to determine L-Cys in urine samples.

Abstract
A novel photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensor for the detection of DNA demethylase MBD2 was developed based on Bi4O5Br2-Au/CdS photosensitive material. Bi4O5Br2 was firstly modified with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), following with the modification onto the ITO electrode with CdS to realize the strong photocurrent response as a result of AuNPs had good conductibility and the matched energy between CdS and Bi4O5Br2. In the presence of MBD2, double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) on the electrode surface was demethylated, which triggered the digestion activity of endonuclease HpaII to cleave dsDNA and induced the further cleavage of the dsDNA fragment by exonuclease III (Exo III), causing the release of biotin labeled dsDNA and inhibiting the immobilization of streptavidin (SA) onto the electrode surface. As a results, the photocurrent was increased greatly. However, in the absence of MBD2, HpaII digestion activity was inhibited by DNA methylation modification, which further caused the failure in the release of biotin, leading to the successful immobilization of SA onto the electrode to realize a low photocurrent. The sensor had a detection of 0.3-200 ng/mL and a detection limit was 0.09 ng/mL (3σ). The applicability of this PEC strategy was assessed by studying the effect of environmental pollutants on MBD2 activity.

Abstract
Fast, sensitive, simple, and cheap sensors are highly desirable to be applied in the health system because they improve point-of-care diagnostics, which can reduce the number of cases of infection or even deaths. In this context, here we report the development of a label-free genosensor using a screen-printed electrode modified with 2D-carbonylated graphitic carbon nitride (c-g-C3N4), poly(diallyldimethylammonium) chloride (PDDA), and glutathione-protected gold nanoparticles (GSH-AuNPs) for photoelectrochemical (PEC) detection of SARS-CoV-2. We also made use of Arduino and 3D printing to miniaturize the sensor device. The electrode surface was characterized by AFM and SEM techniques, and the gold nanoparticles by UV–Vis spectrophotometry. For SARS-CoV-2 detection, capture probe DNA was immobilized on the electrode surface. The hybridization of the final genosensor was tested with a synthetic single-strand DNA target and with natural saliva samples using the photoelectrochemistry method. The device presented a linear range from 1 to 10,000 fmol L−1 and a limit of detection of 2.2 and 3.4 fmol L−1 using cpDNA 1A and 3A respectively. The sensibility and accuracy found for the genosensor using cpDNA 1A using biological samples were 93.3 and 80% respectively, indicating the potential of the label-free and portable genosensor to detect SARS-CoV-2 RNA in saliva samples.

Abstract
In this work, by integrating with a highly efficient multilocus domino-like cascade reaction on DNA nanonet, an ultrasensitive PEC biosensor based on dual-sensitized PDA/ZnO@MoS2 QDs photoactive material as signal probe was proposed for detection of miRNA-182-5p. The dual-sensitized PDA/ZnO@MoS2 QD composed by both of p-n and S-scheme heterojunctions on electrode generated an extremely high initial PEC signal, which however quenched by CdTe QDs decorated on DNA nanonet owing to the significant p-n quenching effect. Thereafter, the output DNA (RS) from DSN enzyme-assisted target recycling amplification triggered an ingenious multilocus domino-like DNA cascade reaction on DNA nanonet for releasing numerous CdTe QDs. Thanks to the multilocus domino-like mode that owned abundant binding sites for increasing trigger efficiency and drove cascade reaction automatically advance along four stated pathways, the target conversion rate could be improved effectively compared with that of traditional approaches, significantly enhancing the detection sensitivity. Consequently, the developed PEC biosensor exhibited a low detection limit to 0.17 fM, providing a new avenue for sensitive, fast and reliable sensing of various DNA/RNA.

Abstract
The rapid-charge carrier recombination and low conductivity are critical in devising an efficient photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensor. Herein, we propose partial oxidation of few-layered MXene (Ti3C2Tx) to construct a photo-active TiO2/Ti3C2Tx platform that could be configured for PEC sensing of folate receptors (FR), particularly, FR-expressing breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-231). MXene-Ti3C2Tx dispersion was oxidized in natural-open air conditions, where continuous exposure for six (06) days allowed for homogeneous in-situ growth of TiO2 over MXenes nanosheets (MX-06). This exposure enabled partial oxidation of MXene-sheets with a balanced TiO2 to MXene content that could exhibit improved photoresponsive characteristics owing to the synergism of redox-active TiO2 and highly conductive underlying Ti3C2Tx. The photoelectrode was then adapted for biorecognition by conjugating chitosan and folic acid (FA) networks, which permitted selective detection of FR-expressed cells with significant antifouling capabilities against common proteins such as bovine serum album (BSA), hemoglobin, and immunoglobulin G. (Ig G). The detection mechanism relies on FA's strong affinity for cancer cell folate receptors, which proportionally inhibited the photoelectrodes PEC oxidation response to ascorbic acid (AA)(mediator). The proposed inhibition strategy enabled sensitive detection of FR-expressed MDA-MB-231 cells in the concentration range of 1 × 102 to 2 × 107 cells/mL with a detection limit of 1.01 cells/mL (S/N = 3).

Compared with the control groups and In2S3@SnO2 heterojunctions with collapse morphology synthesized by sufficiently etched MIL-68 in high temperature aqueous environment, In2S3@SnO2-HSHT synthesized from insufficiently etched MIL-68 as a template had a massively enhanced light-harvesting capability and generated more photoinduced charge carriers due to its well-preserved hollow structure. Therefore, based on outstanding PEC performance of In2S3@SnO2-HSHT, the established PEC label-free signal-off immunosensor to detect CYFRA 21-1, revealing vivid selectivity, stability, and reproducibility. This novel strategy adopted the insufficient chemical etching method neglected by the mainstream chemical etching approaches, which solved the challenge that the stability of the sufficient etched MOFs with hollow structure cannot be maintained under the subsequent high temperature aqueous reaction conditions, and was further applied to the design of hollow heterojunction materials for photoelectrochemical fields.

Abstract
The mutations of bacteria due to the excessive use of antibiotics, and generation of antibiotic-resistant bacteria have made the development of new antibacterial compounds a necessity. MXenes have emerged as biocompatible transition metal carbide structures with extensive biomedical applications. This is related to the MXenes' unique combination of properties, including multifarious elemental compositions, 2D-layered structure, large surface area, abundant surface terminations, and excellent photothermal and photoelectronic properties. The focus of this review is the antibacterial application of MXenes, which has attracted the attention of researchers since 2016. A quick overview of the synthesis strategies of MXenes is provided and then summarizes the effect of various factors (including structural properties, optical properties, surface charges, flake size, and dispersibility) on the biocidal activity of MXenes. The main mechanisms for deactivating bacteria by MXenes are discussed in detail including rupturing of the bacterial membrane by sharp edges of MXenes nanoflakes, generating the reactive oxygen species (ROS), and photothermal deactivating of bacteria. Hybridization of MXenes with other organic and inorganic materials can result in materials with improved biocidal activities for different applications such as wound dressings and water purification. Finally, the challenges and perspectives of MXene nanomaterials as biocidal agents are presented.

Confinement of defect-rich bimetallic In 2O 3/CeO 2 nanocrystals in mesoporous nitrogen-doped carbon as a sensitive platform for photoelectrochemical aptasensing of Escherichia coli. Anal Chim Acta 2023; 1248:340893.

Abstract
The sensitive determination of food-borne pathogens from food products is essential to ensure food safety and to protect people's health. Herein, a novel photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptasensor was manufactured based on defect-rich bimetallic cerium/indium oxide nanocrystals confined in mesoporous nitrogen-doped carbon (denoted as In2O3/CeO2@mNC) for sensitively detecting Escherichia coli (E. coli) from real samples. A new cerium-based polymer-metal-organic framework [polyMOF(Ce)] was synthesized using polyether polymer containing 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid unit (L8) as ligand, trimesic acid as co-ligand, and cerium ions as coordination centers. After adsorbing trace indium ions (In3+), the gained polyMOF(Ce)/In3+ complex was calcined at high temperature under nitrogen atmosphere, resulting in the production of a series of defect-rich In2O3/CeO2@mNC hybrids. Benefitting from the advantages of high specific surface area, large pore size, and multiple functionality of polyMOF(Ce), In2O3/CeO2@mNC hybrids showed enhanced visible light absorption ability, separation performance of the photo-generated electrons and holes, promoted electron transfer, as well as the strong bioaffinity toward E. coli-targeted aptamer. Accordingly, the constructed PEC aptasensor illustrated an ultralow detection limit of 1.12 CFU mL-1, remarkably lower than most of the reported E. coli biosensors, along with high stability and selectivity, excellent reproducibility, and expected regeneration ability. The present work provides insight into the construction of a general PEC biosensing strategy based on MOF-based derivatives for the sensitive analysis of food-borne pathogens.

Abstract
Over use of lincomycin (LIN) as antibiotic in animals can lead to multiple harmful impacts to public health, thus detection of LIN at trace level in milk and chicken sample matrixes is vital. In this work, Zinc phthalocyanine nanoparticles sensitized MoS2 (ZnPc/MoS2) was firstly developed as a novel photocathode material combined with nitrogen-doped graphene-loaded TiO2 nanoparticles (TiO2/NG) as photoanode material to construct a dual-photoelectrode photofuel cell (PFC). The as-prepared membrane/mediator-free PFC achieved excellent output performance that the maximum power density (Pmax) reached 11.83 μW cm-2. Specific aptamers are adopted as LIN recognition elements, the as-proposed self-powered aptasensor for LIN exhibited a linear scope in 10-11 -10-5 mol L-1 along with a low detection limit (3S/N) of 3.33 pmol L-1. Consequently, such high-power density dual-photoelectrode PFC aptasensor may be a reassuring candidate electrochemical sensor for the detection of trace contamination in food samples.

Abstract
In this work, a novel reduction-accelerated quenching of manganese porphyrin (MnPP) based signal-off cathode photochemical (PEC) biosensor by using Au nano-flower/organic polymer (PTB7-Th) heterojunction as platform was proposed for ultrasensitive detection of Hg2+. Firstly, the photoactive PTB7-Th with Au nano-flower on electrode could form a typical Mott-Schottky heterojunction for acquiring an extremely high cathode signal. Meanwhile, the presence of target Hg2+ could bring in the formation of T-Hg2+-T based scissor-like DNA walker, which thus activated efficient Mg2+-specific DNAzyme based cleavage recycling to shear hairpin H2 on electrode to exposure abundant trigger sites of hybridization chain reaction (HCR) for in-situ decoration of quencher MnPP. Here, besides the steric hinderance and light competition effect of MnPP decorated DNA nanowires attributing to signal decrease, we for the first time testified the MnPP reduction-accelerated quenching that constantly consumed the photo-generated electron by using cyclic voltammetry (CV). As a result, the proposed biosensor had excellent sensitivity and selectivity to Hg2+ in the range of 1 fM-10 nM with a detection limit of 0.48 fM. The actual sample analysis showed that the biosensor could reliably and quantitatively identify Hg2+, indicating an excellent application prospect in routine detection.

Abstract
Mycotoxin contamination in foods and other goods has become a broad issue owing to serious toxicity, tremendous threat to public safety, and terrible loss of resources. Herein, it is necessary to develop simple, sensitive, inexpensive, and rapid platforms for the detection of mycotoxins. Currently, the limitation of instrumental and chemical methods cannot be massively applied in practice. Immunoassays are considered one of the best candidates for toxin detection due to their simplicity, rapidness, and cost-effectiveness. Especially, the field of dual-mode immunosensors and corresponding assays is rapidly developing as an advanced and intersected technology. So, this review summarized the types and detection principles of single-mode immunosensors including optical and electrical immunosensors in recent years, then focused on developing dual-mode immunosensors including integrated immunosensors and combined immunosensors to detect mycotoxins, as well as the combination of dual-mode immunosensors with a portable device for point-of-care test. The remaining challenges were discussed with the aim of stimulating future development of dual-mode immunosensors to accelerate the transformation of scientific laboratory technologies into easy-to-operate and rapid detection platforms.

Ultrasensitive photoelectrochemical biosensor for DNA 5-methylcytosine analysis based on co-sensitization strategy combined with bridged DNA nanoprobe. Talanta 2023; 254:124140.

Abstract
Altered DNA methylation in the form of 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) patterns is correlated with disease diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment response. Therefore, accurate analysis of 5-mC is of great significance for the diagnosis of diseases. Here, an efficient enhanced photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensor was designed for the quantitative analysis of DNA 5-mC based on a cascaded energy level aligned co-sensitization strategy coupling with the bridged DNA nanoprobe (BDN). Firstly, Au nanoparticle/graphite phase carbon nitride/titanium dioxide (AuNPs/g-C3N4@TiO2) nanocomposite was synthesized through in situ growth of AuNPs on g-C3N4@TiO2 surface as a matrix to provide a stable background signal. Next, BDN with a high mass transfer rate synthesized from a pair of DNA tetrahedral as nanomechanical handles was used as a capture probe to bind to the target sequence. The polydopamine nanosphere was applied to load with CdTe QDs (PDANS-CdTe QDs) as a photocurrent label of 5-mC antibodies. When the 5-mC existed, a large number of PDANS-Ab-CdTe QDs were introduced to the electrode surface, the formed CdTe QDs/AuNPs/g-C3N4@TiO2 co-sensitive structure could effectively enhance the electron transfer capability and photocurrent response rate due to the effective cascade energy level arrangement, leading to a significantly enhanced photocurrent signal. The proposed PEC biosensor manifested a wide range from 10-17 M to 10-7 M and a detection limit of 2.2 aM. Meanwhile, the excellent performance indicated the practicability of the designed strategy, thus being capable of the clinical diagnosis of 5-mC.

Abstract
With the increasing demand for renewable energy and clean energy, photocatalysis is considered an economical and feasible source of energy. In this work, we select two-dimensional (2D) materials of X2CT2 (X = Cr, Hf, Mo, Sc, Ti, Zr; T = Cl, F, O, OH), Mxene, and MS2 (M = Mo, W) to form 20 systems of 2D van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures. We establish five screening steps, and the 2D Mo2CF2/WS2 vdW heterostructures meet all the screening conditions. Mo2CF2/WS2 is a type II semiconductor with a band gap of 1.58 eV, proper band edge position and high solar-to-hydrogen efficiency (17.15%) and power conversion efficiency (23.4%). An excellent electron-hole recombination time of 21.2 ps and electron (hole) migration time of 149 (265) fs are obtained in the 2D Mo2CF2/WS2 vdW heterostructure. In addition, the calculation results of Gibbs free energy show that a hydrogen reduction reaction and water oxidation reaction can proceed smoothly under the driving of photogenerated holes.

Abstract
Taking advantages of the catalytic activity of METTL3/METTL14 protein towards adenine methylation in RNA sequence and the specific digestion activity of MazF protein towards unmethylated RNA sequence containing ACA bases, a novel photoelectrochemical biosensor was constructed for simultaneous detection of RNA methylation, METTL3/METTL14 protein and MazF protein. MoSe2-BiOI nanocomposite was prepared and considered as photoactive material, catalytic hairpin assembly strategy and in situ generation of electron donors catalyzed by polyaspartic acid-loaded alkaline phosphatase technique were employed as signal amplification. Under the optimum conditions, the detection ranges of methylated RNA, METTL3/METTL14 protein and MazF protein were 0.001-50 nM, 0.001-25 ng/μL, and 0.001-10 U/mL, respectively. The corresponding detection limits were 0.46 pM, 0.51 pg/μL and 0.42 U/μL with S/N = 3. In addition, the effect of drugs and composite pollutants on the activities of MazF proteins was assessed, proving the applicability of the developed method in the field of drug screening for MazF-related diseases. Moreover, the effects of pollutants on the activity of METTL3/METTL14 were also preliminarily explored, providing new information on pathogenic mechanism of pollutants.

Dual ligand-induced photoelectrochemical sensing by integrating Pt/MoS 2 heterostructure and Au polyhedra for sensitive detection of SARS-CoV-2. SENSORS AND ACTUATORS. B, CHEMICAL 2023; 376:132970. [PMID: 36406810 PMCID: PMC9646442 DOI: 10.1016/j.snb.2022.132970] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2022] [Revised: 10/21/2022] [Accepted: 11/06/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
The continuous evolution of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), with discovery of multiple mutants, has caused widespread panic and concern worldwide. The rapid antigen detection method via a single ligand recognition, although currently implemented in many countries, remains challenging for mutated antigens. Herein, we present a novel strategy using a dual recognition by two types of targeted ligands, based on photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensing for detection of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. To demonstrate this strategy, the specific antibodies are modified onto the photoactive material with a supported nanostructure, created by loading the Pt nanoparticles onto MoS2 nanosheets (Pt/MoS2) to boost photon-to-electricity conversion efficiency. By subsequent binding of the targeted aptamers to the Au polyhedra, which act as a signal amplifier to suppress PEC photocurrent by competing with the Pt/MoS2 for the absorption of excitation light energy, the dual recognition is successfully achieved. The constructed biosensor not only shows satisfactory stability, high sensitivity, and selectivity, but is effective for test of the pseudovirus of SARS-CoV-2. The work provides useful advance for the development of PEC biosensors for sensitive detection of SARS-CoV-2.

Photoelectrochemical and visual dual-mode sensor for efficient detection of Cry1Ab protein based on the proximity hybridization driven specific desorption of multifunctional probe. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 441:129759. [PMID: 36058185 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.129759] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2022] [Revised: 08/06/2022] [Accepted: 08/08/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Currently, the development of sensitive and visual strategy for Cry1Ab detection, particularly using a switchable dual-mode detection system based on a single component, remains a great challenge. Here, a photoelectrochemical (PEC) and visual dual-mode sensor was designed for Cry1Ab detection based on a proximity hybridization driven multifunctional probe. In the presence of Cry1Ab, specific desorption of the antibody-DNA conjugate was achieved via sufficient proximity hybridization, leading to the selective release of the multifunctional signal probe, i.e., antibody-labeled single-stranded DNA-gold nanoparticles (Ab1-S1-AuNPs). The released Ab1-S1-AuNPs reduced the photocurrent signal and produced a colored response, thereby achieving PEC and visual dual-mode detection based on a single component. Owing to the different signal generation mechanisms, two independent signals were obtained simultaneously, which provided self-verification to improve reliability and accuracy. Taking advantage of the PEC sensitive detection and visual prediction, the dual-mode sensor achieved efficient detection of the Cry1Ab protein. The developed sensor was successfully used to determine Cry1Ab in corn, wheat, and soil samples with satisfactory results. This method offers a promising biosensing platform for the on-site detection of Cry1Ab protein.

Abstract
Cancer is a leading cause of death globally and early diagnosis is of paramount importance for identifying appropriate treatment pathways to improve cancer patient survival. However, conventional methods for cancer detection such as biopsy, CT scan, magnetic resonance imaging, endoscopy, X-ray and ultrasound are limited and not efficient for early cancer detection. Advancements in molecular technology have enabled the identification of various cancer biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis of the deadly disease. The detection of these biomarkers can be done by biosensors. Biosensors are less time consuming compared to conventional methods and has the potential to detect cancer at an earlier stage. Compared to conventional biosensors, photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensors have improved selectivity and sensitivity and is a suitable tool for detecting cancer agents. Recently, 2D carbon materials have gained interest as a PEC sensing platform due to their high surface area and ease of surface modifications for improved electrical transfer and attachment of biorecognition elements. This review will focus on the development of 2D carbon nanomaterials as electrode platform in PEC biosensors for the detection of cancer biomarkers. The working principles, biorecognition strategies and key parameters that influence the performance of the biosensors will be critically discussed. In addition, the potential application of PEC biosensor in clinical settings will also be explored, providing insights into the future perspective and challenges of exploiting PEC biosensors for cancer diagnosis.
