Abstract
Pathogens and contaminants in food and the environment present significant challenges to human health, necessitating highly sensitive and specific diagnostic methods. Traditional approaches often struggle to meet these requirements. However, the emergence of the Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) system has revolutionized nucleic acid diagnostics. The present review provides a comprehensive overview of the biological sensing technology based on the CRISPR/Cas system and its potential applications in public health-related analysis. Additionally, it explores the enzymatic cleavage capabilities mediated by Cas proteins, highlighting the promising prospects of CRISPR technology in addressing bioanalysis challenges. We discuss commonly used CRISPR-Cas proteins and elaborate on their application in detecting foodborne bacteria, viruses, toxins, other chemical pollution, and drug-resistant bacteria. Furthermore, we highlight the advantages of CRISPR-based sensors in the field of public health-related analysis and propose that integrating CRISPR-Cas biosensing technology with other technologies could facilitate the development of more diverse detection platforms, thereby indicating promising prospects in this field.

A CRISPR/Cas12a-assisted bacteria quantification platform combined with magnetic covalent organic frameworks and hybridization chain reaction. Food Chem 2024; 440:138196. [PMID: 38104450 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.138196] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2023] [Revised: 12/05/2023] [Accepted: 12/10/2023] [Indexed: 12/19/2023]
Abstract
The total bacterial count is an important indicator of food contamination in food safety supervision and management. Recently, the CRISPR/Cas12a system integrated with nucleic acid amplification has increasingly shown tremendous potential in microorganism detection. However, a general quantification strategy for total bacteria count based on the CRISPR/Cas12a system has not yet been developed. Herein, we established a sensitive bacterial quantification strategy based on the CRISPR/Cas12a system combined with magnetic covalent organic frameworks (MCOFs) and hybridization chain reaction (HCR). MCOFs acted as a carrier, adsorbing the ssDNA as HCR trigger sequence through π-π stacking. Then, the HCR circuit produces DNA duplexes containing the PAM sequences that activate the trans-cleavage activity of Cas12a for further signal amplification. Under the optimal conditions, the proposed method can quantify total bacteria in 50 min with a minimum detection concentration of 10 CFU/mL. The successful applications in food samples confirmed the feasibility and broad application prospects.

Abstract
Bovine mastitis, a common and costly disease in dairy cattle, is primarily caused by Staphylococcus aureus. Timely and accurate detection of this pathogen is crucial for effective disease management. In this study, we developed and validated a novel molecular diagnostic assay based on the CRISPR/Cas12a system coupled with Recombinase Polymerase Amplification (RPA) and Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP). We utilized specific primers targeting the nucleotide sequences of the S.aureus genes of interest, such as nuc and sea. RPA/LAMP reactions were performed under optimized conditions, and the resulting products were subsequently subjected to CRISPR/Cas12a detection. The CRISPR/Cas12a assay successfully detected the target nuc and sea genes, with a limit of detection of 104 and 102 gene copies per reaction, respectively. All 13 S.aureus clinical isolates were identified by RPA-CRISPR/Cas12a assay. The total reaction time is approximately 1 h. The assay demonstrated high sensitivity for the detection of S.aureus in both laboratory and clinical samples.

Abstract
Food safety problems have become one of the most important public health issues worldwide. Therefore, the development of rapid, effective and robust detection is of great importance. Amongst a range of methods, nucleic acid isothermal amplification (NAIA) plays a great role in food safety detection. However, the widespread application remains limited due to a few shortcomings. CRISPR/Cas system has emerged as a powerful tool in nucleic acid detection, which could be readily integrated with NAIA to improve the detection sensitivity, specificity, adaptability versatility and dependability. However, currently there was a lack of a comprehensive summary regarding the integration of NAIA and CRISPR/Cas in the field of food safety detection. In this review, the recent advances in food safety detection based on CRISPR/Cas-integrated NAIA were comprehensively reviewed. To begin with, the development of NAIA was summarized. Then, the types and working principles of CRISPR/Cas were introduced. The applications of the integration of NAIA and CRISPR/Cas for food safety were mainly introduced and objectively discussed. Lastly, current challenges and future opportunities were proposed. In summary, this technology is expected to become an important approach for food safety detection, leading to a safer and more reliable food industry.

Abstract
DNA walkers, artificial dynamic DNA nanomachines, can mimic actin to move rapidly along a predefined nucleic acid track. They can generally be classified as one- (1D), two- (2D), and three-dimensional (3D) DNA walkers. In particular, 3D DNA walkers demonstrate amazing sustainable walking ability, strong enrichment ability, and fantastic signal amplification ability. In light of these, 3D DNA walkers have been widely used in fields such as biosensors, bioanalysis and cell imaging. Most notably, the strong compatibility of 3D DNA walkers allows their integration with a range of amplification strategies, effectively enhancing signal transduction and amplifying biosensor sensing signals. Herein, we first systematically expound the walking principle of the 3D walkers in this review. Then, by presenting representative examples, the research direction of 3D walkers in recent years is discussed. Furthermore, we also categorize and evaluate diverse tandem signal amplification strategies in 3D walkers. Finally, the challenges and development trends of 3D DNA walkers in the emerging field of analysis are carefully discussed. It is believed that this work can provide new ideas for researchers to quickly understand 3D DNA walkers and their applications in diverse biosensors.
