Abstract
Rutin extracted from natural plants has important medical value, so developing accurate and sensitive quantitative detection methods is one of the most important tasks. In this work, HKUST-1@GN/MoO3-Ppy NWs were utilized to develop a high-performance rutin electrochemical sensor in virtue of its high conductivity and electrocatalytic activity. The morphology, crystal structure, and chemical element composition of the fabricated sensor composites were characterized by SEM, TEM, XPS, and XRD. Electrochemical techniques including EIS, CV, and DPV were used to investigate the electrocatalytic properties of the prepared materials. The electrochemical test conditions were optimized to achieve efficient detection of rutin. The 2-electron 2-proton mechanism, consisting of several rapid and sequential phases, is postulated to occur during rutin oxidation. The results show that HKUST-1@GN/MoO3-Ppy NWs have the characteristics of large specific surface area, excellent conductivity, and outstanding electrocatalytic ability. There is a significant linear relationship between rutin concentration and the oxidation peak current of DPV. The linear range is 0.50-2000 nM, and the limit of detection is 0.27 nM (S/N = 3). In addition, the prepared electrode has been confirmed to be useful for rutin analysis in orange juice.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 438:129530. [PMID: 35816803 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.129530] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2022] [Revised: 06/30/2022] [Accepted: 07/02/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Due to improper storage, the presence of patulin in fruits poses a threat to food safety. Herein, a one-step dual amplification strategy-based electrochemical aptasensor was proposed for patulin detection. Silver-palladium nanoparticles (AgPdNPs) with a hollow and branched structure were used as a supporting material for thionine to provide numerous attachment sites. AuNFs/g-C3N4 was employed as an electrode modification material, which has been demonstrated to facilitate electron transport and improve signal label loading capacity. Ag+ ions were released in the presence of patulin, activating the Ag+-DNAzyme on the electrode surface. The formed Ag+-DNAzymes further cyclically cleaved the substrate DNA, and the released sequences were used as a new trigger to mediate the secondary recirculation. This one-step dual amplification strategy enabled double target recycling without additional procedures. The signal cascade amplification through dual target recycling, was thus available for trace detection of patulin. Under the optimal conditions, the electrochemical aptasensor achieved a satisfactory linear range from 5.0 × 10-6 μg L-1 to 50 μg L-1 with a detection limit of 0.92 fg·mL-1 for the determination of patulin. In addition, the aptasensor exhibited favorable selectivity, reproducibility, repeatability and long-term stability, and thus can be employed for patulin detection in apple juice samples, providing excellent choice for the detection of trace patulin.

Novel biomass-derived porous-graphitic carbon coated iron oxide nanocomposite as an efficient electrocatalyst for the sensitive detection of rutin (vitamin P) in food and environmental samples. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2022; 211:113012.

Abstract
Design and development of inexpensive, portable, and eco-friendly electrochemical non-enzymatic sensors with high selectivity and sensitivity is pivotal in analytical chemistry. In this regard, we have developed a highly porous graphitic-activated carbon (GAC, derived from tamarind fruit shell biomass) coated iron oxide (Fe2O3) nanocomposite (Fe2O3/GAC) for the efficient detection of rutin (vitamin p). Fe2O3/GAC nanocomposite was prepared using a facile green synthesis method and thoroughly characterized using SEM, XRD, and XPS techniques. As-prepared Fe2O3/GAC nanocomposite was deposited over a screen printed electrode (SPE) to fabricate Fe2O3/GAC/SPE and utilized as a non-enzymatic sensor for the electrochemical determination of rutin in food and environmental samples. The modified electrode was characterized using cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques, which witnessed the excellent conductivity of the developed sensor. The fabricated Fe2O3/GAC/SPE nanocomposite exhibited a set of redox peaks in the presence of rutin, corresponding to the electrochemical redox feature of rutin (rutin to 3',4'-diquinone). Further, the modified electrode displayed excellent electrocatalytic characteristics towards the oxidation of rutin, based on which a differential pulse voltammetry-based sensor was developed for rutin determination. The developed non-enzymatic sensor has shown prominent performance towards rutin detection in a wide linear range from 0.1 to 130 μM with an excellent detection limit of 0.027 μM. The enhanced electrocatalytic response could be ascribed to the synergistic effect of Fe2O3 and GAC on the developed probe. Moreover, the developed sensor was successfully utilized for real-time detection of rutin in various samples.

Abstract
Nucleic acid enzymes (NAzymes) are a class of nucleic acid molecules with catalytic activity, which can be modulated by the presence of different species such as metal ions, genetic biomarkers, small molecules or proteins, among others. NAzymes offer several important advantages for development of novel bioanalytical strategies, resulting from their functionality as specific recognition elements and as amplified analytical signal generators, making them ideal candidates for developing highly specific bioanalytical strategies for the detection of a wide variety of targets. When coupled with the exceptional features of inorganic nanoparticles (NPs), the sensitivity of the assays can be significantly improved, allowing the detection of targets using many different detection techniques including visual readout, spectrophotometry, fluorimetry, electrochemiluminescence, voltammetry, and single-particle inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. Here we provide an overview of the fundamentals of novel strategies developed to achieve analytical signal amplification based on the use of NAzymes coupled with inorganic NPs. Some representative examples of such strategies for the highly sensitive detection of different targets will be presented, including metal ions, proteins, DNA- or RNA-based biomarkers, and small molecules or microorganisms. Furthermore, future prospective challenges will be discussed.

Abstract
Sensitive and selective detection of the lead ion (Pb2+) plays an important role in terms of both human health and environmental protection, as the heavy metal is fairly ubiquitous and highly toxic. The highly stable fluorescence biosensor is composed of Fe3O4@TiO2core-shell nanocomposites, functionalized with a carboxyl fluorescein labeled DNA. The morphology, physical and chemical properties of the sensing nanomaterials were studied by transmission electron microscopy, FT-IR spectroscopy (FT-IR), x-ray powder diffraction and vibrating sample magnetometer. UV-visible and fluorescence spectroscopy were used to characterize the fluorescein functionalized magnetic nanoparticles. The performance of Pb2+detection displayed an excellent linearity (R2 = 0.995) in the range of 10-10to 5 × 10-9ppm with a detection limit of 10-10ppm, based on the optimization of the fabrication process and aptamers' specification. The fluorescence biosensor has an accurate response, excellent recoveries and high adsorbent capacities. It was successfully applied for the determination of Pb2+in contaminated water and serum samples; the detection of limit in both media were 10-10ppm. These features ensure the potential use of aptamer functionalized magnetic nanocomposites as a new class of non-toxic biocompatible sensors for biological and environmental applications.

Abstract
The determination of metal ions is important for nutritional and toxicological assessment. Atomic spectrometric techniques are highly efficient for the determination of these species, but the high costs of acquisition and maintenance hinder the application of these techniques. Inexpensive alternatives for metallic element determination are based on dedicated biosensors. These devices mimic biological systems and convert biochemical processes into physical outputs and can be used for the sensitive and selective determination of chemical species such as cations. In this work, an overview of the proposed biosensors for metal ions determination was carried out considering the last 15 years of publications. Statistical data on the applications, response mechanisms, instrumentation designs, applications of nanomaterials, and multielement analysis are herein discussed.

Abstract
In the past few decades, biosensors have been gradually developed for the rapid detection and monitoring of human diseases. Recently, functional nucleic-acid (FNA) biosensors have attracted the attention of scholars due to a series of advantages such as high stability and strong specificity, as well as the significant progress they have made in terms of biomedical applications. However, there are few reports that systematically and comprehensively summarize its working principles, classification and application. In this review, we primarily introduce functional modes of biosensors that combine functional nucleic acids with different signal output modes. In addition, the mechanisms of action of several media of the FNA biosensor are introduced. Finally, the practical application and existing problems of FNA sensors are discussed, and the future development directions and application prospects of functional nucleic acid sensors are prospected.

Abstract
The authors designed a sensitive label-free electrochemical aptasensor for the detection of sulfaquinoxaline (SQX), including the AuPd NPs@UiO-66-NH2/CoSe2 nanocomposites and RecJf exonuclease-assisted target recycle signal amplification strategy. AuPd NPs@UiO-66-NH2/CoSe2 nanocomposite with excellent conductivity and numerous active sites was successfully synthesized to provide a favorable sensing platform and load more double-strand DNA (dsDNA) on the electrode surface. The negatively charged phosphate group of the oligonucleotide and [Fe (CN)6] 3-/4- repel each other electrostatically, resulting in very low electrical signals. In the presence of SQX, its corresponding aptamer will be released from the double-stranded structure and then digested by RecJf exonuclease, which resulted in the SQX being released to initiate the next recycling to help amplify the DPV signal. Under the optimal conditions, the peak current has a linear relationship with the logarithmic of SQX concentration in the range of 1 pg/mL∼100 ng/mL and the obtained detection limit was 0.547 pg/mL. Furthermore, the contrasted aptasensor possess reliable specificity, reproducibility and stability toward SQX, and has been applied to detect SQX in pork samples with a satisfied recovery varied from 94.40% to 95.98%.

Abstract
Since their discovery almost three decades ago, DNAzymes have been used extensively in biosensing. Depending on the type of DNAzyme being used, these functional oligonucleotides can act as molecular recognition elements within biosensors, offering high specificity to their target analyte, or as reporters capable of transducing a detectable signal. Several parameters need to be considered when designing a DNAzyme-based biosensor. In particular, given that many of these biosensors immobilize DNAzymes onto a sensing surface, selecting an appropriate immobilization strategy is vital. Suboptimal immobilization can result in both DNAzyme detachment and poor accessibility toward the target, leading to low sensing accuracy and sensitivity. Various approaches have been employed for DNAzyme immobilization within biosensors, ranging from amine and thiol-based covalent attachment to non-covalent strategies involving biotin-streptavidin interactions, DNA hybridization, electrostatic interactions, and physical entrapment. While the properties of each strategy inform its applicability within a proposed sensor, the selection of an appropriate strategy is largely dependent on the desired application. This is especially true given the diverse use of DNAzyme-based biosensors for the detection of pathogens, metal ions, and clinical biomarkers. In an effort to make the development of such sensors easier to navigate, this paper provides a comprehensive review of existing immobilization strategies, with a focus on their respective advantages, drawbacks, and optimal conditions for use. Next, common applications of existing DNAzyme-based biosensors are discussed. Last, emerging and future trends in the development of DNAzyme-based biosensors are discussed, and gaps in existing research worthy of exploration are identified.

Abstract
DNA methyltransferases may function as important biomarkers of cancers and genetic diseases. Herein, we develop a dye-sensitized and gold plasmon-enhanced cathodic photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensor on the basis of p-type covalent organic polymers (COPs) for the signal-on measurement of M.SssI methyltransferase (M.SssI MTase). The cathodic PEC biosensor is constructed by the in situ growth of p-type COP films onto a glass coated with indium tin oxide and the subsequent assembly of biotin- and HS-labeled double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) probes onto the COP film via biotin-streptavidin interaction. The dsDNA probe contains the recognition sequence of M.SssI MTase. The COP thin films possess a porous ultrathin nanosheet structure with abundant active sites, facilitating the generation of a high photocurrent compared with the hydrothermally synthesized ones. The presence of DNA methyltransferases can prevent the digestion of restriction endonuclease HpaII, consequently inducing the introduction of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to the dsDNA probes via the S-Au bond and the intercalation of rhodamine B (RhB) into the DNA grooves to produce a high photocurrent due to the dye-photosensitized enhancement and AuNP-mediated surface plasmon resonance. However, in the absence of M.SssI MTase, HpaII digests the dsDNA probes, and neither AuNPs nor RhB can be introduced onto the electrode surface, leading to a low photocurrent. This cathodic PEC biosensor possesses high sensitivity and good selectivity, and it can screen the inhibitors and detect M.SssI MTase in serum as well.

Abstract
Ferrite magnetic nanoparticles (FMNPs) are gaining popularity to design biosensors for high-performance clinical diagnosis. The fusion of information shows that FMNPs based biosensors require well-tuned FMNPs as detection probes to produce large and specific biological signals with minimal non-specific binding. Nevertheless, there is a noticeable lacuna of information to solve the issues related to suitable synthesis route, particle size reduction, functionalization, sensitivity towards targeted intercellular biological tiny particles, and lower signal-to-noise ratio. Therefore it allows exploring unique characteristics of FMNPs to design a suitable sensing device for intracellular measurements and diseases detection. This review focuses on the extensively used synthesis routes, their advantages and limitations, crystalline structure, functionalization, along with recent applications of FMNPs in biosensors, taking into consideration their analytical figures of merit and range of linearity. This work also addresses the current progress, key factors for sensitivity, selectivity and productivity improvement along with the challenges, future trends and perspectives of FMNPs based biosensors.

Abstract
Lead (Pb) is a highly toxic heavy metal of great environmental and health concerns, and interestingly Pb2+ has played important roles in nucleic acids chemistry. Since 2000, using DNA for selective detection of Pb2+ has become a rapidly growing topic in the analytical community. Pb2+ can serve as the most active cofactor for RNA-cleaving DNAzymes including the GR5, 17E and 8-17 DNAzymes. Recently, Pb2+ was found to promote a porphyrin metalation DNAzyme named T30695. In addition, Pb2+ can tightly bind to various G-quadruplex sequences inducing their unique folding and binding to other molecules such as dyes and hemin. The peroxidase-like activity of G-quadruplex/hemin complexes was also used for Pb2+ sensing. In this article, these Pb2+ recognition mechanisms are reviewed from fundamental chemistry to the design of fluorescent, colorimetric, and electrochemical biosensors. In addition, various signal amplification mechanisms such as rolling circle amplification, hairpin hybridization chain reaction and nuclease-assisted methods are coupled to these sensing methods to drive up sensitivity. We mainly cover recent examples published since 2015. In the end, some practical aspects of these sensors and future research opportunities are discussed.

Abstract
Detection of lead(II) (Pb2+) ions in water is important for the protection of human health and environment. The growing demand for onsite detection still faces challenges for sensitive and easy-to-use methods. In this work, a novel surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor based on GR-5 DNAzyme and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) was developed. Thiolated DNAzyme was immobilized on the gold surface of the sensor chip followed by anchoring the substrate-functionalized AuNPs through the DNAzyme-substrate hybridization. The coupling between the localized surface plasmon (LSP) of AuNPs and the surface plasmon polaritons (SPP) on the gold sensor surface was used to improve the sensitivity. The substrate cleavage in the presence of Pb2+ ions was catalyzed by DNAzyme, leading to the removal of AuNPs and the diminished LSP-SPP coupling. The optimal detection limit was 80 pM for the sensor fabricated with 1 μM DNAzyme, corresponding to two or three orders of magnitude lower than the toxicity levels of Pb2+ in drinking water defined by WHO and USEPA. By tuning the surface coverage of DNAzyme, the sensitivity and dynamic range could be controlled. This sensor also featured high selectivity to Pb2+ ions and simple detection procedure. Successful detection of Pb2+ ions in groundwater indicates that this method has the prospect in the onsite detection of Pb2+ ions in water. Given the variety of AuNPs and metal-specific DNAzymes, this detection strategy would lead to the development of more sensitive and versatile heavy metal sensors. Graphical abstract.
