Chen B, He J, Tian K, Qu J, Hong L, Lin Q, Yang K, Ma L, Xu X. Research Progress on Detection of Pathogens in Medical Wastewater by Electrochemical Biosensors. Molecules 2024; 29:3534. [PMID: 39124939 PMCID: PMC11314202 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29153534] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2024] [Revised: 07/19/2024] [Accepted: 07/25/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024] Open
Abstract
The detection of pathogens in medical wastewater is crucial due to the high content of pathogenic microorganisms that pose significant risks to public health and the environment. Medical wastewater, which includes waste from infectious disease and tuberculosis facilities, as well as comprehensive medical institutions, contains a variety of pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. Traditional detection methods like nucleic acid detection and immunological assays, while effective, are often time-consuming, expensive, and not suitable for rapid detection in underdeveloped areas. Electrochemical biosensors offer a promising alternative with advantages including simplicity, rapid response, portability, and low cost. This paper reviews the sources of pathogens in medical wastewater, highlighting specific bacteria (e.g., E. coli, Salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus), viruses (e.g., enterovirus, respiratory viruses, hepatitis virus), parasites, and fungi. It also discusses various electrochemical biosensing techniques such as voltammetry, conductometry, impedance, photoelectrochemical, and electrochemiluminescent biosensors. These technologies facilitate the rapid, sensitive, and specific detection of pathogens, thereby supporting public health and environmental safety. Future research may should pay more attention on enhancing sensor sensitivity and specificity, developing portable and cost-effective devices, and innovating detection methods for diverse pathogens to improve public health protection and environmental monitoring.

Abstract
Recent breakthroughs in the field of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have opened up unprecedented opportunities for the development of specialized bioactive CNT-polymers for a variety of biosensor applications. The incorporation of bioactive materials, including DNA, aptamers and antibodies, into CNTs to produce composites of bioactive CNTs has attracted considerable attention. In addition, polymers are essential for the development of biosensors as they provide biocompatible conditions and are the ideal matrix for the immobilization of proteins. The numerous applications of bioactive compounds combined with the excellent chemical and physical properties of CNTs have led to the development of bioactive CNT-polymer composites. This article provides a comprehensive overview of CNT-polymer composites and new approaches to encapsulate bioactive compounds and polymers in CNTs. Finally, biosensor applications of bioactive CNT-polymer for the detection of glucose, H2O2 and cholesterol were investigated. The surface of CNT-polymer facilitates the immobilization of bioactive molecules such as DNA, enzymes or antibodies, which in turn enables the construction of state-of-the-art, future-oriented biosensors.

Abstract
Due to their life cycle, viruses can disrupt the metabolism of their hosts, causing diseases. If we want to disrupt their life cycle, it is necessary to identify their presence. For this purpose, it is possible to use several molecular-biological and bioanalytical methods. The reference selection was performed based on electronic databases (2020-2023). This review focused on electrochemical methods with high sensitivity and selectivity (53% voltammetry/amperometry, 33% impedance, and 12% other methods) which showed their great potential for detecting various viruses. Moreover, the aforementioned electrochemical methods have considerable potential to be applicable for care-point use as they are portable due to their miniaturizability and fast speed analysis (minutes to hours), and are relatively easy to interpret. A total of 2011 articles were found, of which 86 original papers were subsequently evaluated (the majority of which are focused on human pathogens, whereas articles dealing with plant pathogens are in the minority). Thirty-two species of viruses were included in the evaluation. It was found that most of the examined research studies (77%) used nanotechnological modifications. Other ones performed immunological (52%) or genetic analyses (43%) for virus detection. 5% of the reports used peptides to increase the method's sensitivity. When evaluable, 65% of the research studies had LOD values in the order of ng or nM. The vast majority (79%) of the studies represent proof of concept and possibilities with low application potential and a high need of further research experimental work.

Abstract
Dengue is one of the most widespread and fatal arboviral infections in the world. Early detection of dengue virus (DENV) is essential to prevent the spread of the disease and provide an immediate response. The lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) systems are low-cost, rapid, sensitive, targeted, and straightforward detection, which is an ideal early detection candidate for point-of-care testing (POCT) in dengue-affected areas. However, current commercial LFIA kits cannot fully satisfy the sensitivity, specificity, serotype differentiation, and multiplex detection requirements. Therefore, various strategies have been applied to optimize the LFIA for DENV detection, including label material improvement, optical enhancement and novel structure design. In this review, we comprehensively presented the snapshot of dengue, the principle of LFIA, and recent progress in the LFIA optimization for dengue diagnoses. Furthermore, this review also discusses insights into the prospect of LFIA dengue diagnostic methods, such as microfluidics, multiplex design, nucleic acid-typed probes and smartphone-assisted result analysis.

Abstract
A recent outbreak of porcine circovirus-like virus (PCLV), a virus that may be associated with porcine diarrhea, has been reported in swine herds in China. The virus is spreading rapidly, causing huge economic losses to the swine farming industry. To achieve the rapid, inexpensive, and sensitive detection of PCLV, we combined loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) and the CRISPR/Cas12a system, whose fluorescence intensity readout can detect PCLV ORF4 gene levels as low as 10 copies. To overcome the need for sophisticated equipment, lateral flow strip reading technology was introduced for the first time in a LAMP-Cas12a-based system to detect PCLV. The lateral flow strip (LFS) results were readout by the naked eye, and the method was highly sensitive with a detection limit of 10 copies, with a detection time of about 60 min. In addition, the method is highly specific and has no cross-reactivity with other related viruses. In conclusion, LAMP-CRISPR/Cas12a-based assays have the advantages of rapidity, accuracy, portability, low cost, and visualization of the results. They therefore have great potential, especially for areas where specialized equipment is lacking, and can expect to be an ideal method for early diagnosis and on-site detection of PCLV.

Abstract
Animal viruses are a significant threat to animal health and are easily spread across the globe with the rise of globalization. The limitations in diagnosing and treating animal virus infections have made the transmission of diseases and animal deaths unpredictable. Therefore, early diagnosis of animal virus infections is crucial to prevent the spread of diseases and reduce economic losses. To address the need for rapid diagnosis, electrochemical sensors have emerged as promising tools. Electrochemical methods present numerous benefits, including heightened sensitivity and selectivity, affordability, ease of use, portability, and rapid analysis, making them suitable for real-time virus detection. This paper focuses on the construction of electrochemical biosensors, as well as promising biosensor models, and expounds its advantages in virus detection, which is a promising research direction.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has taken the world by surprise and people and organisations worldwide worked in some way or the other to combat the spread; isolate from the infected and get back to normal life, as it was before the pandemic hit. In this regard, the diagnosis of COVID-19 was at the centre of control and prevention and have seen a vehement change in every aspect, especially development of point-of-care testing for better and quick diagnosis. Among different types of techniques developed, the most important was the RT-PCR method of detection which detects nucleic acid of the virus in samples. RT-PCR is a laboratory-based method requiring trained professionals and precise steps for accurate testing. With the advent and spread of the pandemic, number of RT-PCR diagnostic centres rose significantly, and the detection process became less cumbersome, easy to use, ability to handle large volume of samples, more accurate, less time-consuming, and cost-effective. Different industries developed RT-PCR kits, reducing the efforts to prepare laboratory samples. Machines were employed for labour-driven tasks in PCR testing. In addition, new age technologies such as artificial intelligence, IoT, digital systems were combined with RT-PCR for accurate and easy testing. In this review, point-of-care RT-PCR methods, when the COVID-19 started, and the methods now, has been compared on the basis of technological advancements.

Abstract
The epidemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was a huge disaster to human society. The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which led to COVID-19, has resulted in a large number of deaths. Even though the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) is the most efficient method for the detection of SARS-CoV-2, the disadvantages (such as long detection time, professional operators, expensive instruments, and laboratory equipment) limit its application. In this review, the different kinds of nano-biosensors based on surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), surface plasmon resonance (SPR), field-effect transistor (FET), fluorescence methods, and electrochemical methods are summarized, starting with a concise description of their sensing mechanism. The different bioprobes (such as ACE2, S protein-antibody, IgG antibody, IgM antibody, and SARS-CoV-2 DNA probes) with different bio-principles are introduced. The key structural components of the biosensors are briefly introduced to give readers an understanding of the principles behind the testing methods. In particular, SARS-CoV-2-related RNA mutation detection and its challenges are also briefly described. We hope that this review will encourage readers with different research backgrounds to design SARS-CoV-2 nano-biosensors with high selectivity and sensitivity.

Hong H, Yuan R, Ma H, Xiao L, Li B, Wang K. Accurate and ultrasensitive detection for PEDV based on photoelectrochemical sensing coupling loop-mediated isothermal amplification. Talanta 2023; 258:124476. [PMID: 36989618 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.124476] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2023] [Revised: 03/02/2023] [Accepted: 03/20/2023] [Indexed: 03/29/2023]
Abstract
Porcine epidemic diarrhea (PED) is a serious disease requiring a simple and accurate detection method. Accordingly, this study developed a novel, ultrasensitive photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensing platform using the loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) technique (LAMP-PEC). An amino (-NH2)-modified LAMP product is obtained by amplification of the PED virus gene with specially designed primers. The generated NH2-modified LAMP product is assembled on the surface of an electrode by forming imine linkages between aldehyde and amino groups based on the Schiff base reaction. A stable photocurrent is provided by a CdIn2S4 photoactive material, which possesses high photoelectric conversion efficiency. Amplified DNA assembled on the electrode surface increases steric hindrance and hinders electrons from moving from the electrode to electron acceptors, which decreases the photocurrent. This strategy can detect PEDV with a low detection limit of 0.3 fg μL-1 and a wide linear range of 1 × 10-3-1 × 102 pg/μL. The sensing platform has excellent specificity and sensitivity and can be used for the quantitative detection of many other pathogens with the assistance of LAMP.

Abstract
Viruses have spread throughout the world and cause acute illness or death among millions of people. There is a growing concern about methods to control and combat early-stage viral infections to prevent the significant public health problem. However, conventional detection methods like polymerase chain reaction (PCR) requires sample purification and are time-consuming for further clinical diagnosis. Hence, establishing a portable device for rapid detection with enhanced sensitivity and selectivity for the specific virus to prevent further spread becomes an urgent need. Many research groups are focusing on the potential of the electrochemical sensor to become a key for developing point-of-care (POC) technologies for clinical analysis because it can solve most of the limitations of conventional diagnostic methods. Herein, this review discusses the current development of electrochemical sensors for the detection of respiratory virus infections and flaviviruses over the past 10 years. Trends in future perspectives in rapid clinical detection sensors on viruses are also discussed. KEY POINTS: • Respiratory related viruses and Flavivirus are being concerned for past decades. • Important to differentiate the cross-reactivity between the virus in same family. • Electrochemical biosensor as a suitable device to detect viruses with high performance.

Abstract
The accurate and rapid diagnosis of viral diseases has garnered increasing attention in the field of biosensors. The development of highly sensitive, selective, and accessible biosensors is crucial for early disease detection and preventing mortality. However, developing biosensors optimized for viral disease diagnosis has several limitations, including the accurate detection of mutations. For decades, nanotechnology has been applied in numerous biological fields such as biosensors, bioelectronics, and regenerative medicine. Nanotechnology offers a promising strategy to address the current limitations of conventional viral nucleic acid-based biosensors. The implementation of nanotechnologies, such as functional nanomaterials, nanoplatform-fabrication techniques, and surface nanoengineering, to biosensors has not only improved the performance of biosensors but has also expanded the range of sensing targets. Therefore, a deep understanding of the combination of nanotechnologies and biosensors is required to prepare for sanitary emergencies such as the recent COVID-19 pandemic. In this review, we provide interdisciplinary information on nanotechnology-assisted biosensors. First, representative nanotechnologies for biosensors are discussed, after which this review summarizes various nanotechnology-assisted viral nucleic acid biosensors. Therefore, we expect that this review will provide a valuable basis for the development of novel viral nucleic acid biosensors.

Abstract
Goose astrovirus (GAstV, genus Avian Astrovirus, family Astrovirus) was first discovered in 2005, but was not considered as a pathogen of gosling gout until 2016. Since then, goose astrovirus has erupted in Chinese goslings, causing at most 50% of gosling deaths. By December 2022, the disease had become epidemic and prevailed in goose farms in Jiangsu, Shandong, Anhui, Henan, Guangdong, Liaoning, Sichuan and other places in China. The disease mainly affects goslings within 3 weeks old. The typical symptoms of goose astrovirus are large deposits of urate in the viscera, joint cavity and ureter surface of infected goslings. Goose astrovirus infection can trigger high levels of iNOS, limiting goose astrovirus replication. The ORF2 domain P2 of the goose astrovirus activates the OASL protein, limiting its replication. Goose astrovirus can also activate pattern recognition receptors (RIG-I, MDA-5, TLR-3), causing an increase in MHC-Ia, MHC-Ib and CD81 mRNA, activating humoral and cellular immunity, thereby hindering virus invasion. Goose astrovirus also regulates the activation of IFNs and other antiviral proteins (Mx1, IFITM3, and PKR) in the spleens and kidneys to inhibit viral replication. The innate immune response process in goslings also activates TGF-β, which may be closely related to the immune escape of goose astrovirus. Gaining insight into the infection and innate immune mechanism of goose astrovirus can help researchers study and prevent the severe disease in goslings better.

Abstract
The persistent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) is still infecting hundreds of thousands of people every day. Enriching the kits for SARS-CoV-2 detection and developing the drugs for patient treatments are still urgently needed for combating the spreading virus, especially after the emergence of various mutants. Herein, an electrochemical biosensor has been fabricated in this work for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 via its papain-like cysteine protease (PLpro) and the screening of protease inhibitor against SARS-CoV-2 by using our designed chimeric peptide-DNA (pDNA) nanoprobes. Utilizing this biosensor, the sensitive and specific detection of SARS-CoV-2 PLpro can be conducted in complex real environments including blood and saliva. Five positive and five negative patient throat swab samples have also been tested to verify the practical application capability of the biosensor. Moreover, we have obtained a detection limit of 27.18 fM and a linear detection range from 1 pg mL-1 to 10 μg mL-1 (I = 1.63 + 4.44 lgC). Meanwhile, rapid inhibitor screening against SARS-CoV-2 PLpro can be also obtained. Therefore, this electrochemical biosensor has the great potential for COVID-19 combating and drug development.

Abstract
With the development of COVID-19, widely available tests are in great demand. Naked-eye SARS-CoV-2 test kits have recently been developed as home tests, but their sensitivity and accuracy are sometimes limited. Smartphones can convert various signals into digital information, potentially improving the sensitivity and accuracy of these home tests. Herein, we summarize smartphone-based detections for SARS-CoV-2. Optical detections of non-nucleic acids using various sensors and portable imaging systems, as well as nucleic acid analyses based on LAMP, CRISP, CATCH, and biosensors are discussed. Furthermore, different electrochemical detections were compared. We show results obtained using relatively complex equipment, complicated programming procedures, or custom smartphone apps, and describe methods for obtaining information with only simple setups and free software on smartphones. Then, the combined costs of typical smartphone-based detections are evaluated. Finally, the prospect of improving smartphone-based strategies to achieve broad availability of SARS-CoV-2 detection is proposed.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) biosensors have captured more attention than the conventional methodologies for SARS-CoV-2 detection due to having cost-effective platforms and fast detection. However, these reported SARS-CoV-2 biosensors suffer from drawbacks including issues in detection sensitivity, degradation of biomaterials on the sensor's surface, and incapability to reuse the biosensors. To overcome these shortcomings, molecularly imprinted polymer nanoparticles (nanoMIPs) incorporated conductometric biosensor for highly accurate, rapid, and selective detection of two model SARS-CoV-2 proteins: (i) receptor binding domain (RBD) of the spike (S) glycoprotein and (ii) full length trimeric spike protein are introduced. In addition, these biosensors successfully responded to several other SARS-CoV-2 RBD spike protein variants including Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta. Our conductometric biosensor selectively detects the two model proteins and SARS-CoV-2 RBD spike protein variant samples in real-time with sensitivity to a detection limit of 7 pg mL-1 within 10 min of sample incubation. A battery-free, wireless near-field communication (NFC) interface is incorporated with the biosensor for fast and contactless detection of SARS-CoV-2 variants. The smartphone enabled real-time detection and on-screen rapid result for SARS-CoV-2 variants can curve the outbreak due to its ability to alert the user to infection in real time.

Abstract
Since its outbreak in 2019, COVID-19 becomes a pandemic, severely burdening the public healthcare systems and causing an economic burden. Thus, societies around the world are prioritizing a return to normal. However, fighting the recession could rekindle the pandemic owing to the lightning-fast transmission rate of SARS-CoV-2. Furthermore, many of those who are infected remain asymptomatic for several days, leading to the increased possibility of unintended transmission of the virus. Thus, developing rigorous and universal testing technologies to continuously detect COVID-19 for entire populations remains a critical challenge that needs to be overcome. Wearable respiratory sensors can monitor biomechanical signals such as the abnormities in respiratory rate and cough frequency caused by COVID-19, as well as biochemical signals such as viral biomarkers from exhaled breaths. The point-of-care system enabled by advanced respiratory sensors is expected to promote better control of the pandemic by providing an accessible, continuous, widespread, noninvasive, and reliable solution for COVID-19 diagnosis, monitoring, and management.

Abstract
Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) spreads an extremely infectious disease where there is no specific treatment. COVID-19 virus had a rapid and unexpected spread rate which resulted in critical difficulties for public health and unprecedented daily life disruption. Thus, accurate, rapid, and early diagnosis of COVID-19 virus is critical to maintain public health safety. A graphite oxide-based field-effect transistor (GO-FET) was fabricated and functionalized with COVID-19 antibody for the purpose of real-time detection of COVID-19 spike protein antigen. Thermal evaporation process was used to deposit the gold electrodes on the surface of the sensor substrate. Graphite oxide channel was placed between the gold electrodes. Bimetallic nanoparticles of platinum and palladium were generated via an ultra-high vacuum (UHV) compatible system by sputtering and inert-gas condensation technique. The biosensor graphite oxide channel was immobilized with specific antibodies against the COVID-19 spike protein to achieve selectivity and specificity. This technique uses the attractive semiconductor characteristics of the graphite oxide-based materials resulting in highly specific and sensitive detection of COVID-19 spike protein. The GO-FET biosensor was decorated with bimetallic nanoparticles of platinum and palladium to investigate the improvement in the sensor sensitivity. The in-house developed biosensor limit of detection (LOD) is 1 fg/mL of COVID-19 spike antigen in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). Moreover, magnetic labelled SARS-CoV-2 spike antibody were studied to investigate any enhancement in the sensor performance. The results indicate the successful fabrication of a promising field effect transistor biosensor for COVID-19 diagnosis.

Abstract
Due to the 2019 SARS-CoV-2 outbreak, low-cost, fast, and user-friendly diagnostic kits for biosensing SARS-CoV-2 in real samples employing multiple working electrodes are in high demand. Choosing SARS-CoV-2 detecting electrodes is difficult because each has advantages and limitations. Carbon-based electrochemical sensing applications have attracted attention from the electrochemical sensing community because carbon and carbon-based materials have been a godsend for testing utilizing an electrochemical platform. Carbon working electrode electrochemical platforms are cost-effective and fast. Covid-sensors use carbon-based materials because they can be easily changed (with inorganic and organic functionalities), have quick response kinetics, and are chemically resistant. Covid-19 sensing materials include graphene and graphite. This review explains how carbon materials have been employed in N and S protein electrochemical detection. Here, we discussed a carbon-based technology for SARS-CoV-2 biosensing. We've compared carbon-based electrochemical sensing to different electrodes.

Abstract
A 1,10-phenanthroline-Fe3O4 nanoparticles-graphene oxide-chitosan nanocomposite (Phen-Fe3O4 NPs-GO-Chi) was fabricated and used to modify a glassy carbon (GC) electrode. The modified surface of the electrode was characterized by field emission-scanning electrochemical microscopy. Then, the prepared electrode was used as a sensor for simultaneous determination of purine and pyrimidine bases in DNA. The Phen-Fe3O4 NPs-GO-Chi composite modified electrode showed excellent response toward guanine (G), adenine (A), thymine (T) and cytosine (C). The sensor displayed higher effective surface, an appropriate peak-to-peak separation, and a larger peak current compared to the bare electrode. The evaluated detection limits of G, A, T, and C concentrations are 12, 4, 22, and 9 μM over the concentration range of 15-500, 15-400, 40-1000 and 40-1400 μM, respectively. In addition, the results show that the modified electrode is stable for 7 days and has good repeatability and interfering molecules and ions have no significant effect on peak current. The proposed method was successfully applied for the determination of purine and pyrimidine bases in a fish DNA sperm sample as a real sample.

Abstract
Electrochemical methodology has probably been the most used sensing platform in the past few years as they provide superior advantages. In particular, screen-printed electrode (SPE)-based sensing applications stand out as they provide extraordinary miniaturized but robust and user-friendly detection system. In this context, we are focusing on the modification of SPE with functional nucleic acid probes and nanostructures to improve the electrochemical detection performance in versatile sensing applications, particularly in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. Aptamers are immobilized on the electrode surface to detect non-nucleic acid targets and complementary probes to recognize and capture nucleic acid targets. In a step further, SPE-based biosensors with the modification of self-assembled DNA nanostructures are emphasized as they offer great potential for the interface engineering of the electrode surface and promote the excellent performance of various interface reactions. By equipping with a portable potentiostat and a smartphone monitoring device, the realization of this SPE-based miniaturized diagnostic system for the further requirement of fast and POC detection is revealed. Finally, more novel and excellent works are previewed and future perspectives in this field are mentioned.

Abstract
A self-powered photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptasensor was constructed to sensitively detect 17β-estradiol (E2). Firstly, a reasonable AgInS2@Co/Ni-UiO-66@Carbon Nanodots (CDs) photoelectrode with excellent photoelectrochemical performance was built by a simple two-step preparation method. The Co and Ni doping markedly improved the activity of UiO-66; the matched energy level of AgInS2 and Co/Ni-UiO-66 promoted the separation of electron-hole pairs, and the coupling of CDs further enhanced the conductivity and light utilization. Therefore, a steady anode-photocurrent signal output was obtained in 0.0 V bias voltage, providing a reliable photoelectric translating platform for assembling a self-powered PEC aptasensor. The E2-aptamer was adopted as a recognition unit to enhance the selectivity and sensitivity of the proposed aptasensor. The specific recognition reaction between E2 and aptamer administering to a raised photocurrent signal and the concentration of E2 was quantified by counting the fluctuation of the anode-photocurrent signal. The linear response range of the PEC aptasensor was 1.0 × 10-5-10 nmol/L, and the detection limit (S/N = 3) was lower than 3.0 fmol/L under optimal conditions. The fabricated aptasensor exhibited admirable selectivity, high sensitivity, rapid response, and wide linear range, demonstrating an extensive application prospect for environmental endocrine disruptor detection.

Abstract
It is always challenging to diagnose a disease using a biosensor reliably, and quickly with high sensitivity and selectivity, simultaneosuly. Recently the world experienced a global pandemic caused by a novel coronavirus (COVID-19). Although the vaccines are available, COVID-19 resulted a huge threat to the entire world with high mortality rates. Irrespective of a specific disease, there is a constant need for a cheaper and faster in-vitro, lab-on-a-chip sensor with high sensitivity and selectivity. Such sensors will not only facilitate the disease detection but will expedite and vaccine development process through detection of its corresponding antibodies when developed. In this article, we present an ultrasonic guided wave sensor using 128° YX lithium niobate piezoelectric wafer, specially designed in a shape of a multi-threaded comb with cantilever beams which is equally selective and sensitive for the detection of corresponding antigen-antibody assays. As a proof of concept in this article, the diagnostic sensor is created and tested for detection of SARS-COV-2 antibodies. Sensors were functionalized with SARS-COV-2 antigens and target antibody for the same was detected. Unique and judicially tuned acoustic features are analyzed for successful detection of the right antibodies. The proposed lab-on-a-chip device utilizes a wide range of diagnostic frequencies resulting into a highly sensitive platform for the diagnostics even to the slightest biophysical changes. The proposed sensor is also believed to extend to the detection of various other antigens/antibodies of different diseases in the future.

Abstract
The development of precise and efficient diagnostic tools enables early treatment and proper isolation of infected individuals, hence limiting the spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The standard diagnostic tests used by healthcare workers to diagnose severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection have some limitations, including longer detection time, the need for qualified individuals, and the use of sophisticated bench-top equipment, which limit their use for rapid SARS-CoV-2 assessment. Advances in sensor technology have renewed the interest in electrochemical biosensors miniaturization, which provide improved diagnostic qualities such as rapid response, simplicity of operation, portability, and readiness for on-site screening of infection. This review gives a condensed overview of the current electrochemical sensing platform strategies for SARS-CoV-2 detection in clinical samples. The fundamentals of fabricating electrochemical biosensors, such as the chosen electrode materials, electrochemical transducing techniques, and sensitive biorecognition molecules, are thoroughly discussed in this paper. Furthermore, we summarised electrochemical biosensors detection strategies and their analytical performance on diverse clinical samples, including saliva, blood, and nasopharyngeal swab. Finally, we address the employment of miniaturized electrochemical biosensors integrated with microfluidic technology in viral electrochemical biosensors, emphasizing its potential for on-site diagnostics applications.

Abstract
Nearly 200 million people have been diagnosed with COVID-19 since the outbreak in 2019, and this disease has claimed more than 5 million lives worldwide. Currently, researchers are focusing on vaccine development and the search for an effective strategy to control the infection source. This work designed a detection platform based on Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) by introducing acetonitrile and calcium ions into the silver nanoparticle reinforced substrate system to realize the rapid detection of novel coronavirus. Acetonitrile may amplify the calcium-induced hot spots of silver nanoparticles and significantly enhanced the stability of silver nanoparticles. It also elicited highly sensitive SERS signals of the virus. This approach allowed us to capture the characteristic SERS signals of SARS-CoV-2, Human Adenovirus 3, and H1N1 influenza virus molecules at a concentration of 100 copies/test (PFU/test) with upstanding reproduction and signal-to-noise ratio. Machine learning recognition technology was employed to qualitatively distinguish the three virus molecules with 1000 groups of spectra of each virus. Acetonitrile is a potent internal marker in regulating the signal intensity of virus molecules in saliva and serum. Thus, we used the SERS peak intensity to quantify the virus content in saliva and serum. The results demonstrated a satisfactory linear relationship between peak intensity and protein concentration. Collectively, this rapid detection method has a broad application prospect in clinical diagnosis of viruses, management of emergent viral infectious diseases, and exploration of the interaction between viruses and host cells.

Abstract
SARS-CoV-2 is a pandemic coronavirus that causes severe respiratory disease (COVID-19) in humans and is responsible for millions of deaths around the world since early 2020. The virus affects the human respiratory cells through its spike (S) proteins located at the outer shell. To monitor the rapid spreading of SARS-CoV-2 and to reduce the deaths from the COVID-19, early detection of SARS-CoV-2 is of utmost necessity. This report describes a flexible colorimetric biosensor capable of detecting the S protein of SARS-CoV-2. The colorimetric biosensor is made of polyurethane (PU)-polydiacetylene (PDA) nanofiber composite that was chemically functionalized to create a binding site for the receptor molecule-nucleocapsid antibody (anti-N) protein of SARS-CoV-2. After the anti-N protein conjugation to the functionalized PDA fibers, the PU-PDA-NHS-anti fiber was able to detect the S protein of SARS-CoV-2 at room temperature via a colorimetric transition from blue to red. The PU-PDA nanofiber-based biosensors are flexible and lightweight and do not require a power supply such as a battery when the colorimetric detection to S protein occurs, suggesting a sensing platform of wearable devices and personal protective equipment such as face masks and medical gowns for real-time monitoring of virus contraction and contamination. The wearable biosensors could significantly power mass surveillance technologies to fight against the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract
In this work, we report a facile synthesis of graphene oxide-gold (GO-Au) nanocomposites by electrodeposition. The fabricated electrochemical immunosensors are utilized for the dual detection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) antigen and SARS-CoV-2 antibody. The GO-Au nanocomposites has been characterized by UV-vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) for its biosensing properties. The linear detection range of the SARS-CoV-2 antigen immunosensor is 10.0 ag mL-1 to 50.0 ng mL-1, whereas that for the antibody immunosensor ranges from 1.0 fg mL-1 to 1.0 ng mL-1. The calculated limit of detection (LOD) of the SARS-CoV-2 antigen immunosensor is 3.99 ag mL-1, and that for SARS-CoV-2 antibody immunosensor is 1.0 fg mL-1 with high sensitivity. The validation of the immunosensor has also been carried out on patient serum and patient swab samples from COVID-19 patients. The results suggest successful utilization of the immunosensors with a very low detection limit enabling its use in clinical samples. Further work is needed for the standardization of the results and translation in screen-printed electrodes for use in portable commercial applications.

Abstract
Accurate and sensitive detection of SARS-CoV-2 is an effective strategy for preventing the COVID-19 pandemic in the current absence of specific drug therapy. This study presents a novel enhanced substrate for label-free detection of respiratory viruses using surface-enhanced Raman Scattering. Sodium borohydride reduces silver ions to clustered silver nanoparticles to eliminate the disorganized peak signal of the traditional citrate reducing agent. Meanwhile, the study obtained the fingerprints and concentration-dependent curves of many respiratory viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, human adenovirus type 7, and H1N1 virus, with good linear relationships. The three viruses were also identified in serum and saliva within two minutes, combined with linear discriminant diagnostic analysis. Therefore, establishing this enhanced substrate is greatly valuable for the global response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract
A sensor system based on a piezoelectric resonator with a lateral electric field in the frequency range 6-7 MHz of the electric field for virus detection is described. Through use of the transmissible virus causing gastroenteritis in pigs and specific antibodies, the possibility of detecting the virus in suspension in real time was determined. It was found that the frequency dependence of the real and imaginary parts of the electrical impedance of such a resonator loaded with a virus suspension changes significantly after the addition of specific antibodies to the suspension. No changes are observed if the antibodies are not specific. Thus, the results obtained illustrate the possibility of detecting viruses in situ, directly in the liquid phase, if the change in the real or imaginary parts of the electrical impedance after the addition of antibodies is used as an analytical signal. The possibility of virus detection in the presence of foreign viral particles has been illustrated.

Abstract
The novel coronavirus, renamed SARS-CoV-2 and most commonly referred to as COVID-19, has infected nearly 44.83 million people in 224 countries and has been designated SARS-CoV-2. In this study, we used 'web of Science', 'Scopus' and 'goggle scholar' with the keywords of "SARS-CoV-2 detection" or "coronavirus 2019 detection" or "COVID 2019 detection" or "COVID 19 detection" "corona virus techniques for detection of COVID-19", "audio techniques for detection of COVID-19", "speech techniques for detection of COVID-19", for period of 2019-2021. Some COVID-19 instances have an impact on speech production, which suggests that researchers should look for signs of disease detection in speech utilising audio and speech recognition signals from humans to better understand the condition. It is presented in this review that an overview of human audio signals is presented using an AI (Artificial Intelligence) model to diagnose, spread awareness, and monitor COVID-19, employing bio and non-obtrusive signals that communicated human speech and non-speech audio information is presented. Development of accurate and rapid screening techniques that permit testing at a reasonable cost is critical in the current COVID-19 pandemic crisis, according to the World Health Organization. In this context, certain existing investigations have shown potential in the detection of COVID 19 diagnostic signals from relevant auditory noises, which is a promising development. According to authors, it is not a single "perfect" COVID-19 test that is required, but rather a combination of rapid and affordable tests, non-clinic pre-screening tools, and tools from a variety of supply chains and technologies that will allow us to safely return to our normal lives while we await the completion of the hassle free COVID-19 vaccination process for all ages. This review was able to gather information on biomedical signal processing in the detection of speech, coughing sounds, and breathing signals for the purpose of diagnosing and screening the COVID-19 virus.

Abstract
The novel human coronavirus pandemic is one of the most significant occurrences in human civilization. The rapid proliferation and mutation of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) have created an exceedingly challenging situation throughout the world's healthcare systems ranging from underdeveloped countries to super-developed countries. The disease is generally recognized as coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), and it is caused by a new human CoV, which has put mankind in jeopardy. COVID-19 is death-dealing and affects people of all ages, including the elderly and middle-aged people, children, infants, persons with co-morbidities, and immunocompromised patients. Moreover, multiple SARS-CoV-2 variants have evolved as a result of genetic alteration. Some variants cause severe symptoms in patients, while others cause an unusually high infection rate, and yet others cause extremely severe symptoms as well as a high infection rate. Contrasting with a previous epidemic, COVID-19 is more contagious since the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 demonstrates profuse affection to angiotensin-converting enzyme II (ACE2) that is copiously expressed on the surface of human lung cells. Since the estimation and tracking of viral loads are essential for determining the infection stage and recovery duration, a quick, accurate, easy, cheap, and versatile diagnostic tool is critical for managing COVID-19, as well as for outbreak control. Currently, Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) testing is the most often utilized approach for COVID-19 diagnosis, while Computed Tomography (CT) scans of the chest are used to assess the disease's stages. However, the RT-PCR method is non-portable, tedious, and laborious, and the latter is not capable of detecting the preliminary stage of infection. In these circumstances, nano-biosensors can play an important role to deliver point-of-care diagnosis for a variety of disorders including a wide variety of viral infections rapidly, economically, precisely, and accurately. New technologies are being developed to overcome the drawbacks of the current methods. Nano-biosensors comprise bioreceptors with electrochemical, optical, or FET-based transduction for the specific detection of biomarkers. Different types of organic-inorganic nanomaterials have been incorporated for designing, fabricating, and improving the performance and analytical ability of sensors by increasing sensitivity, adsorption, and biocompatibility. The particular focus of this review is to carry out a systematic study of the status and perspectives of synthetic routes for nano-biosensors, including their background, composition, fabrication processes, and prospective applications in the diagnosis of COVID-19.

Abstract
Coronavirus (COVID-19), a deadly pandemic has spread worldwide and created many global health issues. Though methods of its detection are being continuously developed for the early detection and monitoring of COVID-19, still there is need for more novel methods. The presently used methods include rapid antigen tests, serological surveys, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), artificial intelligence-based techniques, and assays based on sensors/biosensors. Of all these, RT-PCR test has high sensitivity and specificity though it requires more time for testing and need for skilled technicians. Recently, electrochemical sensors have been developed for rapid monitoring and detection of SARS-CoV-2 from the patient's biological fluid samples. This review covers the recently developed electrochemical sensors that are focused on the detection of viral nucleic acid, immunoglobulin, antigen, and the entire viral particles. In addition, we also compare and assess their detection limits, sensitivities and specificities for the identification and monitoring of COVID-19. Furthermore, this review will address the best practices for the development of electrochemical sensors such as electrode fouling, limit of detection/limit of quantification determination and verification.

Abstract
The ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has highlighted that new diagnosis technologies are crucial for controlling the spread of the disease. Especially in the resources-limit region, conveniently operated detection methods such as "naked-eye" detection are urgently required that no instrument is needed. Herein, we have designed a novel and facile strategy to fabricate covalent organic framework (COF) capsules, which can be utilized to establish a new colorimetric assay for naked-eye detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA. Specifically, we employ the digestible ZIF-90 as the sacrificial template to prepare the hollow COF capsules for horseradish peroxidase (HRP) encapsulation. The fabricated COF capsules can provide an appropriate microenvironment for the enzyme molecules, which may improve the conformational freedom of enzymes, enhance the mass transfer, and endow the enzyme with high environmental resistance. With such design, the proposed assay exhibits outstanding analytical performance for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in the linear range from 5 pM to 50 nM with a detection limit of 0.28 pM which can go parallel to qTR-PCR analysis. Our method also possesses excellent selectivity and reproducibility. Moreover, this method can also be served to analyze the clinical samples, and can successfully differentiate COVID-19 patients from healthy people, suggesting the promising potential in clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Highly sensitive, reliable assays with strong multiplexing capability for detecting nucleic acid targets are significantly important for diagnosing various diseases, particularly severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The nanomaterial-based assay platforms suffer from several critical issues such as non-specific binding and highly false-positive results. In this paper, to overcome such limitations, we reported sensitive and remarkably reproducible magnetic microparticles (MMPs) and a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based assay using stable silver nanoparticle clusters for detecting viral nucleic acids. The MMP-SERS-based assay exhibited a sensitivity of 1.0 fM, which is superior to the MMP-fluorescence-based assay. In addition, in the presence of anisotropic Ag nanostructures (nanostars and triangular nanoplates), the assay exhibited greatly enhanced sensitivity (10 aM) and excellent signal reproducibility. This assay platform intrinsically eliminated the non-specific binding that occurs in the target detection step, and the controlled formation of stable silver nanoparticle clusters in solution enabled the remarkable reproducibility of the results. These findings indicate that this assay can be employed for future practical bioanalytical applications.

Abstract
A viral outbreak is a global challenge that affects public health and safety. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been spreading globally, affecting millions of people worldwide, and led to significant loss of lives and deterioration of the global economy. The current adverse effects caused by the COVID-19 pandemic demands finding new detection methods for future viral outbreaks. The environment's transmission pathways include and are not limited to air, surface water, and wastewater environments. The wastewater surveillance, known as wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE), can potentially monitor viral outbreaks and provide a complementary clinical testing method. Another investigated outbreak surveillance technique that has not been yet implemented in a sufficient number of studies is the surveillance of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) in the air. Artificial intelligence (AI) and its related machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) technologies are currently emerging techniques for detecting viral outbreaks using global data. To date, there are no reports that illustrate the potential of using WBE with AI to detect viral outbreaks. This study investigates the transmission pathways of SARS-CoV-2 in the environment and provides current updates on the surveillance of viral outbreaks using WBE, viral air sampling, and AI. It also proposes a novel framework based on an ensemble of ML and DL algorithms to provide a beneficial supportive tool for decision-makers. The framework exploits available data from reliable sources to discover meaningful insights and knowledge that allows researchers and practitioners to build efficient methods and protocols that accurately monitor and detect viral outbreaks. The proposed framework could provide early detection of viruses, forecast risk maps and vulnerable areas, and estimate the number of infected citizens.

Abstract
In this study, an electrochemical approach for the determination of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) was developed. The biosensor system relied on the spike protein (S-protein) based infection mechanism of the virus and included separate interactions of receptors like angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and CD147. After the optimization of experimental parameters, the analytical characteristics of both receptors ACE2 and CD147 were investigated. For ACE2 receptor, the linear detection ranges of the S-protein were found in the range of 700 ng mL-1 to 1500 ng mL-1 and from 1500 ng mL-1 to 7000 ng mL-1 with a limit of detection (LOD) value of 299.30 ng mL-1. Meanwhile, for CD147 receptor the linear range was in the range of 500 ng mL-1 to 5000 ng mL-1 with a LOD value of 38.99 ng mL-1. After the examination of analytical characteristics, the developed electrochemical approach was applied for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 samples and the obtained results were validated with real time polymerase chain reaction method.

Abstract
3D printing technology has brought light in the fight against the COVID-19 global pandemic event through the decentralized and on-demand manufacture of different personal protective equipment and medical devices. Nonetheless, since this technology is still in an early stage, the use of 3D-printed electronic devices for antigen test developments is almost an unexplored field. Herein, a robust and general bottom-up biofunctionalization approach via surface engineering is reported aiming at providing the bases for the fabrication of the first 3D-printed COVID-19 immunosensor prototype with electronic readout. The 3D-printed COVID-19 immunosensor was constructed by covalently anchoring the COVID-19 recombinant protein on a 3D-printed graphene-based nanocomposite electrode surface. The electrical readout relies on impedimetrically monitoring changes at the electrode/electrolyte interface after interacting with the monoclonal COVID-19 antibody via competitive assay, fact that hinders the redox conversion of a benchmark redox marker. Overall, the developed 3D-printed system exhibits promising electroanalytical capabilities in both buffered and human serum samples, displaying an excellent linear response with a detection limit at trace levels (0.5 ± 0.1 μg·mL-1). Such achievements demonstrate advantage of light-of-speed distribution of 3D printing datafiles with localized point-of-care low-cost printing and bioelectronic devices to help contain the spread of emerging infectious diseases such as COVID-19. This technology is applicable to any post-COVID-19 SARS diseases.

Abstract
A critical path to solving the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, without further socioeconomic impact, is to stop its spread. For this to happen, pre- or asymptomatic individuals infected with the virus need to be detected and isolated opportunely. Unfortunately, there are no current ubiquitous (i.e., ultra-sensitive, cheap, and widely available) rapid testing tools capable of early detection of SARS-CoV-2 infections. In this article, we introduce an accurate, portable, and low-cost medical device and bio-nanosensing electrode dubbed SenSARS and its experimental validation. SenSARS' device measures the electrochemical impedance spectra of a disposable bio-modified screen-printed carbon-based working electrode (SPCE) to the changes in the concentration of SARS-CoV-2 antigen molecules ("S" spike proteins) contained within a sub-microliter fluid sample deposited on its surface. SenSARS offers real-time diagnostics and viral load tracking capabilities. Positive and negative control tests were performed in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) at different concentrations (between 1 and 50 fg/mL) of SARS-CoV-2(S), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) glycoprotein gp350, and Influenza H1N1 M1 recombinant viral proteins. We demonstrate that SenSARS is easy to use, with a portable and lightweight (< 200 g) instrument and disposable test electrodes (

Abstract
Detecting viruses, which have significant impact on health and the economy, is essential for controlling and combating viral infections. In recent years there has been a focus towards simpler and faster detection methods, specifically through the use of electronic-based detection at the point-of-care. Point-of-care sensors play a particularly important role in the detection of viruses. Tests can be performed in the field or in resource limited regions in a simple manner and short time frame, allowing for rapid treatment. Electronic based detection allows for speed and quantitative detection not otherwise possible at the point-of-care. Such approaches are largely based upon voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, field effect transistors, and similar electrical techniques. Here, we systematically review electronic and electrochemical point-of-care sensors for the detection of human viral pathogens. Using the reported limits of detection and assay times we compare approaches both by detection method and by the target analyte of interest. Compared to recent scoping and narrative reviews, this systematic review which follows established best practice for evidence synthesis adds substantial new evidence on 1) performance and 2) limitations, needed for sensor uptake in the clinical arena. 104 relevant studies were identified by conducting a search of current literature using 7 databases, only including original research articles detecting human viruses and reporting a limit of detection. Detection units were converted to nanomolars where possible in order to compare performance across devices. This approach allows us to identify field effect transistors as having the fastest median response time, and as being the most sensitive, some achieving single-molecule detection. In general, we found that antigens are the quickest targets to detect. We also observe however, that reports are highly variable in their chosen metrics of interest. We suggest that this lack of systematisation across studies may be a major bottleneck in sensor development and translation. Where appropriate, we use the findings of the systematic review to give recommendations for best reporting practice.

Mikrochim Acta 2021; 188:316.

Abstract
A novel label-free surface plasmon resonance (SPR) aptasensor has been constructed for the detection of N-gene of SARS-CoV-2 by using thiol-modified niobium carbide MXene quantum dots (Nb2C-SH QDs) as the bioplatform for anchoring N-gene-targeted aptamer. In the presence of SARS-CoV-2 N-gene, the immobilized aptamer strands changed their conformation to specifically bind with N-gene. It thus increased the contact area or enlarged the distance between aptamer and the SPR chip, resulting in a change of the SPR signal irradiated by the laser (He-Ne) with the wavelength (λ) of 633 nm. Nb2C QDs were derived from Nb2C MXene nanosheets via a solvothermal method, followed by functionalization with octadecanethiol through a self-assembling method. Subsequently, the gold chip for SPR measurements was modified with Nb2C-SH QDs via covalent binding of the Au-S bond also by self-assembling interaction. Nb2C-SH QDs not only resulted in high bioaffinity toward aptamer but also enhanced the SPR response. Thus, the Nb2C-SH QD-based SPR aptasensor had low limit of detection (LOD) of 4.9 pg mL-1 toward N-gene within the concentration range 0.05 to 100 ng mL-1. The sensor also showed excellent selectivity in the presence of various respiratory viruses and proteins in human serum and high stability. Moreover, the Nb2C-SH QD-based SPR aptasensor displayed a vast practical application for the qualitative analysis of N-gene from different samples, including seawater, seafood, and human serum. Thus, this work can provide a deep insight into the construction of the aptasensor for detecting SARS-CoV-2 in complex environments. A novel label-free surface plasmon resonance aptasensor has been constructed to detect sensitively and selectively the N-gene of SARS-CoV-2 by using thiol-modified niobium carbide MXene quantum dots as the scaffold to anchor the N-gene-targeted aptamer.

Abstract
The ongoing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has emphasized the importance of technologies to rapidly detect emerging pathogens and understand their interactions with hosts. Platforms based on the combination of biological recognition and electrochemical signal transduction, generally termed bioelectrochemical platforms, offer unique opportunities to both sense and study pathogens. Improved bio-based materials have enabled enhanced control over the biotic-abiotic interface in these systems. These improvements have generated platforms with the capability to elucidate biological function rather than simply detect targets. This advantage is a key feature of recent bioelectrochemical platforms applied to infectious disease. Here, we describe developments in materials for bioelectrochemical platforms to study and detect emerging pathogens. The incorporation of host membrane material into electrochemical devices has provided unparalleled insights into the interaction between viruses and host cells, and new capture methods have enabled the specific detection of bacterial pathogens, such as those that cause secondary infections with SARS-CoV-2. As these devices continue to improve through the merging of hi-tech materials and biomaterials, the scalability and commercial viability of these devices will similarly improve.

Abstract
For detection of cannabidiol (CBD)—an important ingredient in Cannabis sativa L.—amino magnetic nanoparticle-decorated graphene (Fe3O4-NH2-GN) was prepared in the form of nanocomposites, and then modified on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE), resulting in a novel electrochemical sensor (Fe3O4-NH2-GN/GCE). The applied Fe3O4-NH2 nanoparticles and GN exhibited typical structures and intended surface groups through characterizations via transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and Raman spectroscopy. The Fe3O4-NH2-GN/GCE showed the maximum electrochemical signal for CBD during the comparison of fabricated components via the cyclic voltammetry method, and was systematically investigated in the composition and treatment of components, pH, scan rate, and quantitative analysis ability. Under optimal conditions, the Fe3O4-NH2-GN/GCE exhibited a good detection limit (0.04 μmol L−1) with a linear range of 0.1 μmol L−1 to 100 μmol L−1 (r2 = 0.984). In the detection of CBD in the extract of C. sativa leaves, the results of the electrochemical method using the Fe3O4-NH2-GN/GCE were in good agreement with those of the HPLC method. Based on these findings, the proposed sensor could be further developed for the portable and rapid detection of natural active compounds in the food, agricultural, and pharmaceutical fields.

Abstract
An oligonucleotide DNA probe has been developed for the application in the DNA electrochemical biosensor for the early diagnosis of coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Here, the virus microRNA from the N-gene of severe acute respiratory syndrome-2 (SARS-CoV-2) was used for the first time as a specific target for detecting the virus and became a framework for developing the complementary DNA probe. The sequence analysis of the virus microRNA was carried out using bioinformatics tools including basic local alignment search tools, multiple sequence alignment from CLUSTLW, microRNA database (miRbase), microRNA target database, and gene analysis. Cross-validation of distinct strains of coronavirus and human microRNA sequences was completed to validate the percentage of identical and consent regions. The percent identity parameter from the bioinformatics tools revealed the virus microRNAs' sequence has a 100% match with the genome of SARS-CoV-2 compared with other coronavirus strains, hence improving the selectivity of the complementary DNA probe. The 30 mer with 53.0% GC content of complementary DNA probe 5' GCC TGA GTT GAG TCA GCA CTG CTC ATG GAT 3' was designed and could be used as a bioreceptor for the biosensor development in the clinical and environmental diagnosis of COVID-19.
