Abstract
Isoniazid and streptomycin are vital drugs for treating tuberculosis, which are utilized as efficient anti-tuberculosis agents. This paper presents a novel visible-light-driven composite photocatalyst Ti3C2/Bi/BiOI, which was built from Ti3C2 nanosheets and Bi/BiOI microspheres. Photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensors based on Ti3C2/Bi/BiOI were synthesized for isoniazid identification, which showed a linear concentration range of 0.1-125 μM with a detection limit of 0.05 μM (S/N = 3). Moreover, we designed a PEC aptasensors based on aptamer/Ti3C2/Bi/BiOI to detect streptomycin in 0.1 M PBS covering the electron donor isoniazid, because the isoniazid consumes photogenerated holes thus increasing the photocurrent effectively and preventing photogenerated electron-hole pairs from being recombined. Furthermore, PEC aptasensors based on aptamer/Ti3C2/Bi/BiOI were synthesized for streptomycin identification, which exhibited a linear concentration range of 0.01-1000 nM with a detection limit of 2.3 × 10-3 nM (S/N = 3), and are well stable in streptomycin sensing.

Abstract
Food safety is one of the greatest public health challenges. Developing ultrasensitive detection methods for analytes at ultra-trace levels is, therefore, essential. In recent years, the bio-barcode assay (BCA) has emerged as an effective ultrasensitive detection strategy that is based on the indirect amplification of various DNA probes. This review systematically summarizes the progress of fluorescence, PCR, and colorimetry-based BCA methods for the detection of various contaminants, including pathogenic bacteria, toxins, pesticides, antibiotics, and other chemical substances in food in over 120 research papers. Current challenges, including long experimental times and strict storage conditions, and the prospects for the application of BCA in biomedicine and environmental analyses, have also been discussed herein.

Abstract
This study aimed at three representative pollutants, benzidine, cyromazine, and streptomycin, which were commonly used and posed a great threat to both environment and human health, mainly to explore a fast, simple, sensitive, visible naked-eye detection method. Colorimetric detection by gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) was first attempted. The cross-linking reaction occurred owing to the strong forces between the targets and AuNPs, leading to aggregation and color change. However, large-scale aggregation was easily formed and settled, which failed to achieve accurate quantification. Thus, AuNPs are considered to be used in fluorescence detection as reaction bridges. The introduction of AuNPs could effectively quench the fluorescence of Rhodamine B based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). Moreover, a classical "on-off-on" fluorescence detection system was constructed based on nanomaterials. When AuNPs were added, the red fluorescence of the Rhodamine B solution could be effectively quenched (the "off" reaction). However, the tight cross-linking reaction between the three targets and AuNPs occurred through the strong affinity, causing Rhodamine B to dissociate in the solution. The fluorescence was rapidly restored, accompanied by a significant enhancement of fluorescence intensity (the "on" reaction). The fluorescent responses toward the three targets were established, resulting in good linearity in a wide range with low detection limits. Moreover, through the investigation of specificity, the fluorescence sensor exhibited satisfying selectivity and high binding affinity to the detected targets among the same types of inferences, indicating great potential for practical application. This simple, fast and sensitive fluorescence detection system was first used for simultaneously detecting three types of pollutants and finally successfully applied to real samples.

Abstract
Food security is a global issue, since it is closely related to human health. Antibiotics play a significant role in animal husbandry owing to their desirable broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. However, irrational use of antibiotics has caused serious environmental pollution and food safety problems; thus, the on-site detection of antibiotics is in high demand in environmental analysis and food safety assessment. Aptamer-based sensors are simple to use, accurate, inexpensive, selective, and are suitable for detecting antibiotics for environmental and food safety analysis. This review summarizes the recent advances in aptamer-based electrochemical, fluorescent, and colorimetric sensors for antibiotics detection. The review focuses on the detection principles of different aptamer sensors and recent achievements in developing electrochemical, fluorescent, and colorimetric aptamer sensors. The advantages and disadvantages of different sensors, current challenges, and future trends of aptamer-based sensors are also discussed.

Abstract
Streptomycin (STR) is extensively employed for preventive and curative purposes in animals, which is accumulated in human body through food chain and induces serious health problems. Herein, highly photoactive type II heterojunctions of porous CdIn2S4/SnO2 microspheres were initially prepared, which can effectively inhibit the recombination of the charge-hole pairs. Besides, the peroxidase-mimicking catalytic property of the hollow PtCu nanocages (PtCu NCs) was carefully investigated by UV-vis spectroscopy, where catalytic oxidation of tetramethylbenzidine behaved as the benchmarked reaction. On such basis, a highly selective photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptasensor was established with the CdIn2S4/SnO2 heterojunctions for bioanalysis of streptomycin, coupled by the PtCu NCs nanozyme-catalyzed biocatalytic precipitation to achieve signal magnification. Specifically, the home-made nanozyme was applied for catalytic oxidation of 3,3'-diaminobenzidine to generate insulating precipitate in aqueous H2O2 system and thereby block the light harvesting on the photoanode, showing steeply declined PEC responses. The as-built aptasensor showed a broad linear range of 0.01-200 nM with a low limit of detection of 7.50 pM (S/N = 3) for such analysis, combined by exploring its practical detection in milk samples. This work shows excellent nanozyme-catalyzed signal amplification for fabrication of ultrasensitive PEC biosensors towards other antibiotics detection.

Abstract
A novel, label-free fluorescent assay has been developed for the detection of trypsin by using thioflavin T as a fluorescent probe. A specific DNA aptamer can be combined by adding cytochrome c. Trypsin hydrolyzes the cytochrome c into small peptide fragments, exposing the G-quadruplex part of DNA aptamer, which has a high affinity for thioflavin T, which then enhances the fluorescence intensity. In the absence of trypsin, the fluorescence intensity was inhibited as the combination of cytochrome c and the DNA aptamer impeded thioflavin T’s binding. Thus, the fluorescent biosensor showed a linear relationship from 0.2 to 60 μg/mL with a detection limit of 0.2 μg/mL. Furthermore, the proposed method was also successfully employed for determining trypsin in biological samples. This method is simple, rapid, cheap, and selective and possesses great potential for the detection of trypsin in bioanalytical and biological samples and medical diagnoses.

Abstract
A novel Apt-LFA has been established for kanamycin based on non-thiolated nucleic acid-modified colloidal gold nanoprobe (AuNPs@polyA-DNA). The improvement in nucleic acid hybridization speed and efficiency was verified by modifying AuNPs with polyA-DNA strands instead of thiolated oligonucleotides (SH-DNA) strands. Moreover, the AuNPs@polyA-DNA was explored to apply in an Apt-LFA. The experimental factors including the concentration of the aptamer, the concentration of SA-DNAT conjugate, the incubation time, and temperature were carefully investigated. In addition, the kanamycin aptamer was modified by extending several bases at its end to modulate the hybridization complementary strand, which was found to significantly improve the performance of Apt-LFA. Under optimal experimental conditions, the Apt-LFA can detect kanamycin in honey with a LOD of 250 ng mL-1 by the naked eyes. A linear range of 50-1250 ng mL-1 was obtained with a LOD of 15 ng mL-1 in honey by a portable reader. The Apt-LFA was successfully applied to the detection of kanamycin in honey with recoveries of 95.1-105.2%.

Abstract
Water quality and safety are vital to the ecological environment, social development, and ecological susceptibility. The extensive use and continuous discharge of antibiotics have caused serious water pollution; antibiotics are widely found in freshwater, drinking water, and reservoirs; and this pollution has become a common phenomenon and challenge in global water ecosystems, as water polluted by antibiotics poses serious risks to human health and the ecological environment. Therefore, the antibiotic content in water should be identified, monitored, and eliminated. Nevertheless, there is no single method that can detect all different types of antibiotics, so various techniques are often combined to produce reliable results. This review summarizes the sources of antibiotic pollution in water, covering three main aspects: (1) wastewater discharges from domestic sewage, (2) medical wastewater, and (3) animal physiology and aquaculture. The existing analytical techniques, including extraction techniques, conventional detection methods, and biosensors, are reviewed. The electrochemical biosensors have become a research hotspot in recent years because of their rapid detection, high efficiency, and portability, and the use of nanoparticles contributes to these outstanding qualities. Additionally, the comprehensive quality evaluation of various detection methods, including the linear detection range, detection limit (LOD), and recovery rate, is discussed, and the future of this research field is also prospected.

Abstract
This study describes a quencher-free fluorescent aptasensor for ochratoxin A (OTA) detection using the specific quenching ability of guanine for fluorescein (FAM) molecules based on photo-induced electron transfer (PIET). In this strategy, OTA is detected by monitoring the fluorescence change induced by the conformational change of the aptamer after target binding. A new shorter OTA aptamer compromising three guanine bases at the 5' end was used in this study. This new aptamer, named G3-OTAapt1-FAM (F1), was labeled with FAM on the 3' end as a fluorophore. In order to increase the binding affinity of the aptamer and OTA, G3-OTAapt2-FAM (F2) was designed; this added a pair of complementary bases at the end compared with F1. To prevent the strong self-quenching of F2, a complementary chain, A13, was added. Although the F1 aptasensor was simpler to implement, the sensitivity of the F2 aptasensor with A13 was better than that of F1. The proposed F1 and F2 sensors can detect OTA with a concentration as low as 0.69 nmol/L and 0.36 nmol/L, respectively.

Abstract
Streptomycin (STR) an aminoglycoside antibiotic which is used against bacteria in human and animal infection, have serious side effects on different parts of human body. Therefore, there is a crucial need to detect trace amount of it in serum and food products. Aptamers are oligonucleotides or peptides, which bind their targets with high affinity and specificity. These properties make aptamers as suitable candidates for biosensing applications. A 79-mer ss-DNA aptamer was applied for the detection of small amount of STR in various aptasensors. But there is no structural information on the STR-binding aptamer and molecular details underlying the aptamer-STR binding remain unexplored. In this study we provided a 3D-structural model for 79-mer ss-DNA aptamer from the sequence. Using docking program and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation we predicted the binding pocket of ss-DNA aptamer. Our results show STR streptose ring is buried within the groove of DNA model and capped by non Watson-Crick bases. STR interacts with aptamer through forming stable hydrogen bonds. Our computational findings are in fair agreement with experimental results. With the atomic structural details, we gained new insight into the Apt-STR binding interaction that can help to further optimize aptamer efficiency in biosensing applications.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
Aflatoxin food contamination with toxic and carcinogenic impacts on human health is a global concern. We have developed aptasensors for the detection of Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) and B1 (AFB1) using electrochemical and optical methods. In the first method, an electrochemical aptasensor was designed for the detection of AFM1 based on complementary strand of AFM1 aptamer that was attached onto the gold nanoparticles and a hairpin-shaped AFM1 aptamer. The designed electrochemical aptasensor showed high selectivity toward AFM1 with a limit of detection (LOD) as low as 0.9 nM. Moreover, the developed aptasensor was successfully used to detect AFM1 in milk and serum with LODs of 1.8 and 1.2 nM, respectively. In the second method, a novel electrochemical aptasensor was developed based on the π-shape structure of AFB1 aptamer. The detection limit was found to be 2 pg/mL in buffer. Also, the developed aptasensor was used to analyze AFB1 spiked human serum and grape juice samples, and the recoveries were 95.4-108.1%. In another method, a fluorescent sensing scheme was developed for AFB1 detection based on a hairpin structure of G-quadruplex oligonucleotide-aptamer chimera, streptavidin-coated silica nanoparticles (SNP-streptavidin) and N-methyl mesoporphyrin IX (NMM). The LOD was reported as 8 pg/mL with a linear range of 30-900 pg/mL. Moreover, the developed sensor could detect AFB1 in serum and grape juice with the LOD of 9.8 and 11.2 pg/mL, respectively.

Abstract
Streptomycin (STR) plays an essential role in bacterial infection treatments. Selectivity and sensitivity of photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensors are the two most important parameters, which can be measured using the photosensitivity of its active material. We prepared a novel PEC sensor to detect STR using Bi/BiVO4/LDH (layered double hydroxides) heterostructures as an active material, which is photoactive in the visible light wavelength range. The simultaneous presence of LDH and Bi/BiVO4 enhanced the material photocurrent response, which was linear to the STR concentrations in the 0.01-500 nmol/L range. The STR detection limit by this sensor was 0.0042 nmol/L. Our novel PEC-based sensing strategy includes using an ultra-sensitive and highly selective sensor for STR detection. Additionally, the two-pot synthesis of Bi/BiVO4/LDH developed in this work is environmentally friendly.

Abstract
A novel electrochemical glassy carbon electrode modified with a multi-walled carbon nanotube, cytochrome c (Cyt c) and zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) was fabricated to increase the sensitivity of electrode for the detection of streptomycin (STN) in certain pharmaceutical samples. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry techniques were used for an electrochemical characterization of the electrode. Furthermore, the electrochemical biosensor construction phases were examined by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Under the optimal experimental conditions, the electrode offers a high selectivity and sensitivity signaling in the co-existence method of STN with the linear concentration ranging from 0.02 to 2.2 μM. The detection limits (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were found to be 0.0028 and 0.0562 μM, respectively. The fabricated sensing electrode has good stability, reproducibility and sensitivity towards STN in the pharmaceutical samples. Preliminary determinations of binding sites within the specified grid box size, which covers both Cyt c and STN, were done by molecular docking analysis. Moreover, density functional theory (DFT) computations were performed to provide insightful information into the optimized geometry of STN.

Abstract
Sensitive detection of streptomycin (STR) has attracted increasing attention worldwide because of the relationship between food security and human health. In this paper, Bi4VO8Br/Ti3C2 nanohybrids were obtained by one-pot solvent hydrothermal method. It was modified on ITO electrode, and STR aptamer was acted as the recognition element. With excellent photoelectrochemical (PEC) performance of Bi4VO8Br/Ti3C2 nanohybrids, an "on-off-on" PEC aptasensor for STR detection was effectively developed. Compared with pure Bi4VO8Br, the photocurrent intensity of as-prepared Bi4VO8Br/Ti3C2 nanohybrids was about 9 times higher, which ascribed to the highly conductive of Ti3C2, driving the photogenerated electrons transferred to the ITO electrode rapidly, so that the recombination of photogenerated electron and hole pairs was inhibited viably. Furthermore, the constructed "on-off-on" PEC aptasensor accomplished STR detection with high sensitivity, excellent specificity and distinguished repeatability in honey. The photocurrent increased with the increment of STR concentration with the linear range from1 nM to 1000 nM, and the detection limit of 0.3 nM (S/N = 3). Compared with the national standard method (SN/T 1925-2007), the as-constructed PEC sensor showed the consistent results.

Abstract
Designing a sensitive method for the detection of streptomycin residues in animal products is essential for controlling consumer health risk. In this study, a high-purity pencil lead graphite electrode coated with inner graphene layers and outer surface-adsorbed gold nanoparticles attached to streptomycin-specific thiolated aptamer was used as an electrochemical aptasensor. The aptasensor electrode fabrication steps were investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Fourier-transform infrared spectrophotometer (FTIR). Moreover, aptasensor performance during fabrication and binding of aptamer to streptomycin were investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) methods. After the binding of sreptomycin to it's specific aptamer as a component of the aptasensor a decrease in the current and an increase in the charge transfer resistance (Rct) were recorded using the above-mentioned techniques. Under optimal conditions, the novel ultra-sensetive designed aptansensor detects streptomycin in the range of 10-8 to 10-16 M with a LOD of 0.8×10-18 M. The aptansensor demonstrates a high selectivity, good reproducibility and acceptable stability for the specific detection of streptomycin. According to the results, the manufactured aptansensor is a fast, low-cost, highly sensitive and selective device and thus the aptasensor can detect the trace amounts of streptomycin in milk in dairy industries.

Abstract
Antibiotics are widely used in the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases in animals due to its bactericidal or bacteriostatic action. Residual antibiotics and their metabolites pose great threats to human and animal health, such as potential carcinogenic and mutagenic effects, and bacterial resistances. Therefore, it is necessary and urgent to accurately monitor trace amounts of antibiotics in food samples. Up to now, many analytical methods have been reported for the determination of antibiotics. Biosensors with the advantages of high sensitivity, rapid response, easy miniaturization, and low price have been widely applied to the detection of antibiotics residues in past decades. This review offered an in-depth evaluation of recognition elements for antibiotic residues in diverse food matrices. In addition, it presented a systematical and critical review on signal amplification via various materials, focusing on recently developed nanomaterials. Finally, the review provided an outlook on the future concepts to help upgrade the sensing techniques for antibiotics in food.

Abstract
Aminoglycoside antibiotics (AAs) have been extensively applied in medical field and animal husbandry owing to desirable broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. Excessive AAs residues in the environment can be accumulated in human body through food chain and cause detrimental effect on human health. The establishment of highly specific, simple and sensitive detection methods for monitoring AAs residues is highly in demand. Aptasensor using aptamer as the biological recognition element is the efficient and promising sensing method for detection of AAs. In this review, we have made a summary of specific aptamers sequences against AAs. Subsequently, we provide a systematical and comprehensive overview of modern techniques in aptasensors for detection of AAs according to optical aptasensors as well as electrochemical aptasensors and further summarize their advantages and disadvantages to compare their applications. In addition, we present an overview of practical applications of aptasensors in sample detection of AAs. Moreover, the current challenges and future trends in this field are also included to reveal a promising perspective for developing novel aptasensors for AAs.

Abstract
As antibiotic pollution is gaining prominence as a global issue, the demand for detection of streptomycin (STR), which is a widely used antibiotic with potential human health and ecological risks, has attracted increasing attention. Aptamer-based biosensors have been developed for the detection of STR in buffers and samples, however, the non-target signals due to the conformational variation of free aptamers possibly affect their sensitivity and stability. In this study, by introducing the STR-specific split aptamer (SPA), a sensitive evanescent wave fluorescent (EWF) biosensor is developed for the sandwich-type based detection of STR. The standard calibration curve obtained for STR has a detection limit of 33 nM with a linear range of 60-526 nM. This biosensor exhibited good selectivity, reliable reusability for at least 100 times measurements, and high recovery rates for spiked water samples; moreover, all detection steps are easy-to-operate and can be completed in 5 min. Therefore, it exhibits great promise for actual on-site environmental monitoring. Additionally, without introducing any other oligonucleotides or auxiliary materials, this SPA-based biosensing method shows potential as a simple, sensitive, and low-cost manner for the detection of other small molecular targets.

Abstract
Antibiotic abuse is becoming increasingly serious and the potential for harm to human health and the environment has aroused widespread social concern. Aminoglycoside antibiotics (AGs) are broad-spectrum antibiotics that have been widely used in clinical and animal medicine. Consequently, their residues are commonly found in animal-derived food items and the environment. A simple, rapid, and sensitive detection method for on-site screening and detection of AGs is urgently required. In recent years, with the development of molecular detection technology, nucleic acid aptamers have been successfully used as recognition molecules for the identification and detection of AGs in food and the environment. These aptamers have high affinities, selectivities, and specificities, are inexpensive, and can be produced with small batch-to-batch differences. This paper reviews the applications of aptamers for AG detection in colorimetric, fluorescent, chemiluminescent, surface plasmon resonance, and electrochemical sensors for the analysis in food and environmental samples. This study provides useful references for future research.

Abstract
Antibiotics are extensively employed as bacteriostatic agents for fighting against microbial infection in animals. However, inappropriate doses of antibiotic drugs may result in antibiotic residues in food of animal origin and may cause various side effects on human health. Moreover, the transferor of antibiotic-resistant bacteria to humans through the food chain may induce serious health hazards. Hence, it is vital to develop sensitive and selective methods for rapid screening and regular monitoring of antibiotic residues in animal-derived foods. The conventional different chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques are time-consuming, expensive and require skilled personnel. To overcome such limitations, biosensors have emerged as an innovative approach recently and integrated with nanotechnologies for sensitive, rapid and on-site monitoring of different antibiotic residues in animal origin foods. This mini-review aims to give an overview of the currently available biosensing techniques to detect antibiotic residue in foods.

Abstract
The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family and its receptors play fundamental roles not only in physiological but also in pathological angiogenesis, characteristic of cancer progression. Aiming at finding putative treatments for several malignancies, various small molecules, antibodies, or protein-based drugs have been evaluated in vitro and in vivo as VEGF inhibitors, providing efficient agents approved for clinical use. Due to the high clinical importance of VEGF, also a great number of anti-VEGF nucleic acid-based aptamers-that is, oligonucleotides able to bind with high affinity and specificity a selected biological target-have been developed as promising agents in anticancer strategies. Notable research efforts have been made in optimization processes of the identified aptamers, searching for increased target affinity and/or bioactivity by exploring structural analogues of the lead compounds. This review is focused on recent studies devoted to the development of DNA-based aptamers designed to target VEGF. Their therapeutic potential as well as their significance in the construction of highly selective biosensors is here discussed.

Abstract
This paper describes a new label-free fluorescent aptasensor for the detection of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) based upon exonuclease I (Exo I) and SYBR Gold, in which SYBR Gold, aptamer, AFB1, and Exo I were used. Specific combinations of aptamer and AFB1 occurred in the presence of AFB1 and consequently altered the spatial structure of the aptamer, thereby preventing its digestion by Exo I. When SYBR Gold was added, intense fluorescence was observed. Additionally, a good linear relationship was observed under optimized conditions between the fluorescence intensities and the AFB1 concentrations (R2 = 0.993). The established aptamer sensor was highly sensitive and exhibited a low limit of detection of 1.82 ng mL-1, with superior specificity for AFB1. It was also used in the quantification of AFB1 levels in soybean sauce samples and demonstrated satisfactory recoveries in the scope of 94.8-108.9%. The proposed sensor is highly sensitive, low cost, and capable of rapid detection and can thus be used to determine mycotoxin levels in a wide range of feeds and food products in a high-throughput and quantitative means.

Chlortetracycline-Functionalized Silver Nanoparticles as a Colorimetric Probe for Aminoglycosides: Ultrasensitive Determination of Kanamycin and Streptomycin. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2020; 10:E997. [PMID: 32455981 PMCID: PMC7279544 DOI: 10.3390/nano10050997] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2020] [Accepted: 05/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
Aminoglycosides (AMGs) have been extensively used to treat infectious diseases caused by Gram-negative bacteria in livestock and humans. A selective and sensitive colorimetric probe for the determination of streptomycin and kanamycin was proposed based on chlortetracycline-coated silver nanoparticles (AgNPs-CTC) as the sensing element. Almost all of the tested aminoglycoside antibiotics can rapidly induce the aggregation of AgNPs, along with a color change from yellow to orange/red. The selective detection of aminoglycoside antibiotics, including tobramycin, streptomycin, amikacin, gentamicin, neomycin, and kanamycin, with other types of antibiotics, can be achieved by ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy. This developed colorimetric assay has ability to detect various AMGs using in-depth surface plasmon resonance (SPR) studies. With this determination of streptomycin and kanamycin was achieved at the picomolar level (pM) by using a UV-visible spectrophotometer. Under aqueous conditions, the linear range of the colorimetric sensor for streptomycin and kanamycin was 1000-1,1000 and 120-480 pM, respectively. The corresponding limit of detection was 2000 pM and 120 pM, respectively. Thus, the validated dual colorimetric and ratiometric method can find various analytical applications for the ultrasensitive and rapid detection of AMG antibiotics in water samples.

Abstract
A MOF-based bio-bar code material was synthesized and firstly applied to develop an electrochemical streptomycin (STR) aptasensor. By using MOF-based bio-bar code and enzyme-assisted target recycling for dual-signal amplification, highly sensitive detection of STR was achieved. The sensing surface was simply fabricated by immobilizing a mixed monolayer of thiolated cDNA/aptamer duplexes (dsDNA) and 6-mercapto-1-hexanol (MCH) on the gold nanoparticle modified screen printed carbon electrode (Au/SPCE). The presence of target STR caused highly efficient removal of the aptamers from dsDNA assisted by Exo I enzyme. Then MOF-based bio-bar codes were backfilled to achieve the adsorption of electroactive Ru(NH3)63+ (RuHex) on electrode surface. The electrochemical signal of the surface-confined RuHex was used for quantitation. The analytical performance for STR was satisfactory with a wide linear range of 0.005-150 ng mL-1, a low detection limit of 2.6 pg mL-1 and a good selectivity towards other three antibiotics. Moreover, the application of this aptasensor for determination of STR in real milk samples was also realized. With these merits, this dual-signal amplification assay might provide one of the effective ways for food safety monitoring.

The Growing Interest in Development of Innovative Optical Aptasensors for the Detection of Antimicrobial Residues in Food Products. BIOSENSORS-BASEL 2020; 10:bios10030021.

Abstract
The presence of antimicrobial residues in food-producing animals can lead to harmful effects on the consumer (e.g., allergies, antimicrobial resistance, toxicological effects) and cause issues in food transformation (i.e., cheese, yogurts production). Therefore, to control antimicrobial residues in food products of animal origin, screening methods are of utmost importance. Microbiological and immunological methods (e.g., ELISA, dipsticks) are conventional screening methods. Biosensors are an innovative solution for the development of more performant screening methods. Among the different kinds of biosensing elements (e.g., antibodies, aptamers, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIP), enzymes), aptamers for targeting antimicrobial residues are in continuous development since 2000. Therefore, this review has highlighted recent advances in the development of aptasensors, which present multiple advantages over immunosensors. Most of the aptasensors described in the literature for the detection of antimicrobial residues in animal-derived food products are either optical or electrochemical sensors. In this review, I have focused on optical aptasensors and showed how nanotechnologies (nanomaterials, micro/nanofluidics, and signal amplification techniques) largely contribute to the improvement of their performance (sensitivity, specificity, miniaturization, portability). Finally, I have explored different techniques to develop multiplex screening methods. Multiplex screening methods are necessary for the wide spectrum detection of antimicrobials authorized for animal treatment (i.e., having maximum residue limits).

Abstract
BACKGROUND The low cost of aminoglycoside (AMG) antibiotics facilitates their excessive use in animal husbandry and the agriculture sector. This scenario has led to the occurrence of residues in the food chain. After several years of AMG use in antibacterial therapy, resistance to streptomycin has begun to appear. Most of the detection methods developed for AMG antibiotics lacks specificity. A broad target specific nanoprobe would be ideal for detecting the entire class of AMGs. A rapid and sensitive method for the detection of AMGs is urgently needed. RESULTS Gallic acid-coated silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were demonstrated as a nanoprobe for the colorimetric detection of AMGs (yellow to orange / red). A linear dynamic range of 50-650 pmol L-1 was achieved readily by ratiometric spectrophotometry (A560 /A400 ) with a limit of detection (LOD) as low as 36 pmol L-1 . The amine-groups of the AMGs function as molecular linkers, so that electrostatic coupling interactions between neighboring particles drive the formation of AgNP aggregates. The assay can also be applied for the determination of streptomycin residues in serum and milk samples. CONCLUSION This study revealed the potential of an AgNP probe for the rapid and cost-effective detection of low-molecular-weight target analytes, such as the AMGs. A ligand-induced aggregation of AgNPs coated with gallic acid was reported to be a rapid and sensitive assay for AMGs. Analysis of streptomycin was demonstrated with excellent picomolar-level sensitivity. Thus, the validated method can find practical applications in the ultrasensitive detection of AMGs in complex and diagnostic settings. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
In this work, a metallic composite with strong electrocatalytic property was designed by uniformly decorating Pt and Sn nanoparticles on the surface of TiO2 nanorods (Pt-Sn@TiO2). A detection scheme was then developed based on a dual signal amplification strategy involving the Pt-Sn@TiO2 composite and exonuclease assisted target recycling. The Pt-Sn@TiO2 composite exhibited an enhanced oxygen reduction current owing to the synergistic effect between Pt and Sn, as well as high exposure of Pt (111) crystal face. Initially, a Pt-Sn@TiO2 modified glassy carbon electrode produced an amplified electrochemical signal for the reduction of dissolved oxygen in the analyte solution. Next, a DNA with a complementary sequence to a streptomycin aptamer (cDNA) was immobilised on the Pt-Sn@TiO2 modified electrode, followed by the streptomycin aptamer that hybridised with cDNA. The corresponding oxygen reduction current was diminished by 51% attributable to the hindrance from the biomolecules. After a mixture of streptomycin and RecJf exonuclease was introduced, both the streptomycin-aptamer complex and the cDNA were cleaved from the electrode, making the Pt-Sn and Pt (111) surface available for oxygen reduction. RecJf would also release streptomycin from the streptomycin-aptamer complex, allowing it to complex again with aptamers on the electrode. This has then promoted a cyclic amplification of the oxygen reduction current by 85%, which is quantitatively related to streptomycin. Under optimal conditions, the aptasensor exhibited a linear range of 0.05-1500 nM and a limit of detection of 0.02±0.0045 nM streptomycin. The sensor was then used in the real-life sample detection of streptomycin to demonstrate its potential applications to bioanalysis.

Abstract
Background:
The determination of drugs in pharmaceutical formulations and human biologic fluids is
important for pharmaceutical and medical sciences. Successful analysis requires low sensitivity, high selectivity
and minimum interference effects. Current analytical methods can detect drugs at very low levels but these methods
require long sample preparation steps, extraction prior to analysis, highly trained technical staff and high-cost
instruments. Biosensors offer several advantages such as short analysis time, high sensitivity, real-time analysis,
low-cost instruments, and short pretreatment steps over traditional techniques. Biosensors allow quantification not
only of the active component in pharmaceutical formulations, but also the degradation products and metabolites in
biological fluids. The present review gives comprehensive information on the application of biosensors for drug
discovery and analysis. Moreover, this review focuses on the fabrication of these biosensors.
Methods:
Biosensors can be classified as the utilized bioreceptor and the signal transduction mechanism. The classification
based on signal transductions includes electrochemical optical, thermal or acoustic. Electrochemical and
optic transducers are mostly utilized transducers used for drug analysis. There are many biological recognition elements,
such as enzymes, antibodies, cells that have been used in fabricating of biosensors. Aptamers and antibodies
are the most widely used recognition elements for the screening of the drugs. Electrochemical sensors and biosensors
have several advantages such as low detection limits, a wide linear response range, good stability and reproducibility.
Optical biosensors have several advantages such as direct, real-time and label-free detection of many
biological and chemical substances, high specificity, sensitivity, small size and low cost. Modified electrodes enhance
sensitivity of the electrodes to develop a new biosensor with desired features. Chemically modified electrodes
have gained attention in drug analysis owing to low background current, wide potential window range, simple
surface renewal, low detection limit and low cost. Modified electrodes produced by modifying of a solid surface
electrode via different materials (carbonaceous materials, metal nanoparticles, polymer, biomolecules) immobilization.
Recent advances in nanotechnology offer opportunities to design and construct biosensors. Unique features
of nanomaterials provide many advantages in the fabrication of biosensors. Nanomaterials have controllable
chemical structures, large surface to volume ratios, functional groups on their surface. To develop proteininorganic
hybrid nanomaterials, four preparation methods have been used. These methods are immobilization, conjugation,
crosslinking and self-assembly. In the present manuscript, applications of different biosensors, fabricated
by using several materials, for drug analysis are reviewed. The biosensing strategies are investigated and discussed
in detail.
Results:
Several analytical techniques such as chromatography, spectroscopy, radiometry, immunoassays and electrochemistry
have been used for drug analysis and quantification. Methods based on chromatography require timeconsuming
procedure, long sample-preparation steps, expensive instruments and trained staff. Compared to chromatographic
methods, immunoassays have simple protocols and lower cost. Electrochemical measurements have
many advantages over traditional chemical analyses and give information about drug quantity, metabolic fate of
drugs, and pharmacological activity. Moreover, the electroanalytical methods are useful to determine drugs sensitively
and selectivity. Additionally, these methods decrease analysis cost and require low-cost instruments and
simple sample pretreatment steps.
Conclusion:
In recent years, drug analyses are performed using traditional techniques. These techniques have a
good detection limit, but they have some limitations such as long analysis time, expensive device and experienced
personnel requirement. Increased demand for practical and low-cost analytical techniques biosensor has gained interest
for drug determinations in medical sciences. Biosensors are unique and successful devices when compared to
traditional techniques. For drug determination, different electrode modification materials and different biorecognition
elements are used for biosensor construction. Several biosensor construction strategies have been developed to
enhance the biosensor performance. With the considerable progress in electrode surface modification, promotes the
selectivity of the biosensor, decreases the production cost and provides miniaturization. In the next years, advances
in technology will provide low cost, sensitive, selective biosensors for drug analysis in drug formulations and biological
samples.

Abstract
In terms of detection of antibiotics within complex media, the nonspecific adsorption is an enormous challenge and antifouling sensing interfaces capable of reducing the nonspecific adsorption from complex biological samples are highly desirable. In this work, a novel antifouling electrochemical immunosensor was explored based on the self-assembly of two kinds of poly( N-isopropylacrylamide) microgels on the surface of graphene oxide for sensitive detection of streptomycin (STR). The microgels modified with glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) and zwitterionic liquid 1-propyl-3-vinylimidazole sulfonate (PVIS) were prepared. The microgels with GMA were used by combining specific recognition of anti-STR. The rapid specific binding of antigen and anti-STR resulted in a decrease of current density to generate electrochemical responsive signals. Zwitterionic liquid-modified microgels were used for antifouling, which can form stronger hydration and show excellent antifouling ability. As a result, we achieved efficient and sensitive detection of STR in the complex sample with evidently resisted nonspecific adsorption effect, the wide linear range toward STR was from 0.05 to 100 ng mL-1, with a detection limit down to 1.7 pg mL-1. The immunosensor based on the surface functionalization of microgels showed promising applications for the detection of antibiotics in complex media.

Abstract
An electrochemical method is described for the determination of streptomycin (STR). It is making use of a gold electrode coated with a thin mesoporous silica film (MSF). In addition, silver nanoparticles were coated on the MSF to increase the surface area, to bind a large amount of aptamer (Apt), and to improve the electrical conductivity. In the presence of STR, it will bind to the Apt and hinder the diffusion of the redox probe hexacyanoferrate through the nanochannels of the mesoporous film. The aptasensor, best operated at a working potential of 0.22 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) has a linear response in the 1 fg.mL-1 to 6.2 ng.mL-1 STR concentration range. The detection limit is 0.33 fg.mL-1. The assay was successfully validated by analyzing spiked samples of milk and blood serum. Graphical abstract Voltammetric assay of streptomycin (STR) by using a Fe(CN)63-/4- probe. The aptamer was immobilized on a gold electrode modified with a mesoporous silica thin film (MSF) that was functionalized with (3-aminopropyl) triethoxysilane (APTES) and silver nanoparticles (AgNP). Incubation with STR leads to a decrease of the current.

Abstract
Simultaneous and sensitive detection of various antibiotic residues in one sample is essential to evaluation of food safety status. Herein, a multiplexed electrochemical aptasensor for multiplex antibiotics detection, with kanamycin (KANA) and ampicillin (AMP) as representative analytes, was designed by using metal ions encoded apoferrtin probes and double stirring bars-assisted target recycling for signal amplification. The encoded probes were prepared by apoferritin loading Cd2+ and Pb2+ ions and labeling with duplex DNAs (aptamers corresponding to KANA and AMP hybrid with its complementary DNA sequence), respectively. In the presence of KANA and AMP, the targets can recurrently react with the probes on the bars, and then replace a lot of Apo-Mencoded signal tags into supernatant. The peak currents of Cd2+and Pb2+from the tags corresponding with the concentrations of KANA and AMP were detected by square wave voltammetry in one run. As a result, KANA and AMP can be detected simultaneously within the range from 0.05 pM to 50 nM. And the detection limits were 18 fM KANA and 15 fM AMP (S/N = 3). The assay was testified to detect KANA and AMP residues with consistent results of ELISA in samples, e.g. milks and fishes. The assay was highly-sensitive, selective, cost-effective and easy-to-operate due to Apo-M encoded probes with high loading capacity of signal source substances. Moreover, double stirring bar-assisted target recycling, which was enzyme-free and could overcome matrix interference, was fabricated for signal amplification. Thus, the assay showed potential advantages for sensitively screening of antibiotic residues in foods.

Abstract
There is a growing need to monitor anthropogenic organic contaminants detected in water sources. DNA aptamers are synthetic single-stranded oligonucleotides, selected to bind to target contaminants with favorable selectivity and sensitivity. These aptamers can be functionalized and are used with a variety of sensing platforms to develop sensors, or aptasensors. In this critical review, we (1) identify the state-of-the-art in DNA aptamer selection, (2) evaluate target and aptamer properties that make for sensitive and selective binding and sensing, (3) determine strengths and weaknesses of alternative sensing platforms, and (4) assess the potential for aptasensors to quantify environmentally relevant concentrations of organic contaminants in water. Among a suite of target and aptamer properties, binding affinity is either directly (e.g., organic carbon partition coefficient) or inversely (e.g., polar surface area) correlated to properties that indicate greater target hydrophobicity results in the strongest binding aptamers, and binding affinity is correlated to aptasensor limits of detection. Electrochemical-based aptasensors show the greatest sensitivity, which is similar to ELISA-based methods. Only a handful of aptasensors can detect organic pollutants at environmentally relevant concentrations, and interference from structurally similar analogs commonly present in natural waters is a yet-to-be overcome challenge. These findings lead to recommendations to improve aptasensor performance.

Abstract
By combination of the aptamer biorecognition with the colorimetric signal transduction of a DNAzyme-functionalized nanoprobe, a new biosensing method was developed for the rapid and sensitive detection of chloramphenicol (CAP). The nanoprobe was prepared through the functionalization of gold nanoparticles with the complementary oligonucleotide against aptamer and high-content hemin/G-quadruplex DNAzyme. When one-step incubating the nanoprobe and CAP at a constructed aptamer-magnetic bead (MB) biosensing platform, due to the competitive biorecognition reaction, the nanoprobes related with CAP amounts were quantitative captured onto the MB surface. Based on the catalytic reaction of the peroxidase-mimicking DNAzyme, a colored substance was produced for the colorimetric signal transduction of the method. Due to the great signal amplification of the nanoprobe, a very low detection limit down to 0.13 pg/mL was obtained. Considering the excellent performance of the aptasensing method and satisfactory results for milk sample experiments, it indicates good reliability for practical applications.

Abstract
Antibiotic resistance and, accordingly, their pollution because of uncontrolled usage has emerged as a serious problem in recent years. Hence, there is an increased demand to develop robust, easy, and sensitive methods for rapid evaluation of antibiotics and their residues. Among different analytical methods, the aptamer-based biosensors (aptasensors) have attracted considerable attention because of good selectivity, specificity, and sensitivity. This review gives an overview about recently-developed aptasensors for antibiotic detection. The use of various aptamer assays to determine different groups of antibiotics, like β-lactams, aminoglycosides, anthracyclines, chloramphenicol, (fluoro)quinolones, lincosamide, tetracyclines, and sulfonamides are presented in this paper.

Abstract
This study describes an aptamer based assay for the mycotoxin ochratoxin A (OTA). The method is based on the use of an OTA-specific aptamer, exonuclease (Exo) III, SYBR Gold as a fluorescent probe, and a complementary strand that specifically combines with the aptamer. In the presence of OTA, the aptamer and OTA hybridize, thereby resulting in the formation of ssDNA, which is not digested by Exo III. Intense fluorescence is observed after addition of SYBR Gold (best measured at excitation/emission wavelengths of 495/540 nm). Fluorescence increases linearly with the log of the OTA concentration in the range from 8 to 1000 ng·mL-1. The detection limit is 4.7 ng·mL-1. The assay was applied to the determination of OTA in diluted [2%(v/v)] red wine, and recoveries and RSDs ranged between 93.5% and 113.8%, and between 3.2% and 5.7%, respectively. Graphical abstract In the presence of ochratoxin A (OTA), specific combinations of aptamer and OTA may occur and result in DNA double strands being untied, which avoids being digested by Exo III. Intense fluorescence is observed after SYBR Gold addition.

Abstract
It is critically important to detect antibiotic residues for monitoring food safety. In this study, an enzyme- and label-free electrochemical aptasensor for antibiotics, with kanamycin (Kana) as a typical analyte, was developed based on a double stir bar-assisted toehold-mediated strand displacement reaction (dSB-TMSDR) for dual-signal amplification. First, we modified two gold electrodes (E-1 and E-2) with different DNA probes (S1/S2 hybrid probe in E-1 and DNA fuel strand S3 in E-2). In the presence of Kana, an S1/S2 probe can be disassembled from E-1 to form an S2/Kana complex in supernatant. The S2/Kana could react with S3 on E-2 to form S2/S3 hybrid and release Kana through TMSDR. After then, the target recycling was triggered. Subsequently, the formed S2/S3 hybrid can also trigger a hybridization chain reaction (HCR). Consequently, the dual-signal amplification strategy was established, which resulted in many long dsDNA chains on E-2. The chains can associate with methylene blue (MB) as redox probes to produce a current response for the quantification of Kana. The assay exhibited high sensitivity and specificity with a detection limit at 16 fM Kana due to the dual-signal amplification. The double stir bars system can both increase phase separation and prevent leakage of DNA fuel to reduce background interference. Moreover, it allows flexible sequence design of the TMSDR probes. The assay was successfully employed to detect Kana residues in food and showed potential application value in food safety detection.

Abstract
A novel dual-competitive lateral flow aptasensor (LFA) benefited from aptamer and lateral flow strips was first designed by using aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) as the model target. In this LFA assay, the target AFB1 competed with AFB1-hapten at T line for binding to Cy5-labeled AFB1 aptamer and the complementary strand competed with the target AFB1 for binding to Cy5-labeled AFB1 aptamer at C line. The ratio of their fluorescent intensities at the T line and C line (ST/SC ratio) was employed in order to increase the sensitivity for target AFB1 detection. This technique has the limit of detection (LOD) of 0.1ng/mL for AFB1 within the linear range from 0.1ng/mL to 1000ng/mL. Subsequently, the LFA approach was validated using 11 kinds of food and feedstuff samples with a simple aqueous extraction protocol. The test results with different naturally contaminated feedstuffs indicated a good correlation between this LFA and a commercial ELISA kit. The assay can be completed within 20min and its sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility are highly satisfactory. This is the first LFA that has been rigorously validated, which will be greatly beneficial to development of commercial aptamer-based biosensors for food safety, environmental analysis, particularly in clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Colorimetric aptasensors were designed for detection of tobramycin (TOB) based on unmodified gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and single-strand DNA (ssDNA). In the absence of TOB, the DNA aptamer was coated on the surface of AuNPs to keep it against salt-induced aggregation. In the presence of TOB, aptamer will bind with TOB and detach from the surface of AuNPs because of higher affinities between aptamer and TOB. Then less protection of DNA may result in the aggregation of AuNPs by salt and an apparent color change from red to purple-blue. The developed aptasensors showed a high selectivity and sensitivity for TOB detection. The linearity range and the detection limit were 40-200 nM and 23.3 nM respectively. The validity of the procedure and applicability of aptasensors were successfully used to detect TOB in milk and chicken eggs, and the results were excellent in accord with the values obtained by spectrofluorimetric detection.
