Mohammadi F, Roushani M, Valipour A. Development of a label-free impedimetric aptasensor based on Zr-MOF and titaniom carbide nanosheets for detection of L-tryptophan. Bioelectrochemistry 2024; 155:108584. [PMID: 37832184 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2023.108584] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2023] [Revised: 10/01/2023] [Accepted: 10/08/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023]
Abstract
This study primarily focuses on the L-Tryptophan (Trp) biomarker assay, with particular attention given to its objectives. The investigation centers on the potential implications of imbalanced Trp levels and its associated metabolites, which have been attributed to the spectrum of both psychological and physiological disorders, encompassing conditions such as cancer. Therefore, the swift and accurate detection of this amino acid is of paramount importance in cancer monitoring, as it plays a crucial role in preventing the metastasis and spread of cancer cells. Thus, an electrochemical aptasensor was designed based on nanocomposite of AgNPs@UiO-66/Ti3C2 (MXene) as immobilization strategy for the ultrasensitive detection of Trp. Zirconium metal-organic frameworks (Zr-MOFs) were employed as carriers for silver nanoparticles to facilitate subsequent binding with aptamers. Markedly, the obtained results show that the constructed aptasensor can specifically detect Trp in the two concentration range from 1fM to 1 nM and 1 nM to 200 nM and with a low detection limit of 0.35 fM. When applied to real samples, the experimental results demonstrated positive recovery rates. Consequently, a discerning and sensitive electrochemical aptasensor devoid of labeling agents was successfully fabricated for the explicit purpose of Trp detection.

Abstract
The present research was conducted to design and construct an electrochemical aptasensor for evaluating carbohydrate antigen 15-3 (CA15-3) as a biomarker for breast cancer. The aptasensor has been fabricated by a gold thin film (AuTF) electrodeposited on a cauliflower-like reduced graphene oxide-molybdenum sulfide nanocomposite (rGO-MoS2). The modified electrode's surface was used to immobilize the thiolated aptamer, which was subsequently treated with CA 15-3 antigen. The aptasensor fabrication process was assessed using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). This research also applied EIS to the quantitative measurement of CA 15-3 antigen by the proposed aptasensor. The interfacial charge transfer resistance (Rct) alteration before and after incubation of CA 15-3 by the immobilized aptamer was considered a signal for the quantitative measurement of CA 15-3. A linear concentration ranging from 5.0 to 200.0 U mL-1 with a detection limit of 3.0 × 10-1 U mL-1 was obtained for CA 15-3 using the EIS method. This designed aptasensor indicates satisfactory repeatability and stability, good selectivity, and high sensitivity. Moreover, clinical samples were assayed by the prepared aptasensor and compared with the ELISA method, yielding acceptable results. The recovery and relative standard deviation (RSD) of CA 15-3 in human serum samples were in the range 95.0 to 107.0% and 3.5 to 7.5%, respectively.

Mikrochim Acta 2023; 190:308.

Abstract
An electrochemical aptasensor has been developed to detect Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii). The proposed system was developed by modifying carbon screen-printed electrodes (CSPEs) with a synthesized MWCNT@Fe3O4@SiO2-Cl nanocomposite and then binding A. baumannii-specific aptamer using covalent immobilization on the modified electrode surface and the interaction of methylene blue (MB) with Apt as an electrochemical redox indicator. As a result of the incubation of the A. baumannii bacteria as a target on the proposed aptasensor, a cathodic peak current density (Jpc) of MB decreased due to the formation of the Apt-A. baumannii complex and MB being released from the immobilized Apt on the surface of the modified electrode. In addition to increasing the electron transfer kinetics, the nanocomposite provides a relatively stable matrix to improve the loading Apt sequence. The suggested aptasensor was demonstrated to be capable of detecting A. baumannii with a linear range of 10.0-1.0 × 107 colony-forming unit (CFU) mL-1 and a detection limit of 1 CFU mL-1 (S/N = 3) using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) studies at a working potential of ~0.29 V and a scan rate of 100 mV s-1. The outcomes revealed that the aptasensor exhibited high A. baumannii detection sensitivity, stability, reproducibility, and specificity.

Abstract
Whole blood, as one of the most significant biological fluids, provides critical information for health management and disease monitoring. Over the past 10 years, advances in nanotechnology, microfluidics, and biomarker research have spurred the development of powerful miniaturized diagnostic systems for whole blood testing toward the goal of disease monitoring and treatment. Among the techniques employed for whole-blood diagnostics, electrochemical biosensors, as known to be rapid, sensitive, capable of miniaturization, reagentless and washing free, become a class of emerging technology to achieve the target detection specifically and directly in complex media, e.g., whole blood or even in the living body. Here we are aiming to provide a comprehensive review to summarize advances over the past decade in the development of electrochemical sensors for whole blood analysis. Further, we address the remaining challenges and opportunities to integrate electrochemical sensing platforms.

Sandwich-Type Electrochemical Aptasensor for Highly Sensitive and Selective Detection of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Bacteria Using a Dual Signal Amplification Strategy. Bioelectrochemistry 2023; 150:108332. [PMID: 36493674 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2022.108332] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2022] [Revised: 11/12/2022] [Accepted: 11/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022]
Abstract
An electrochemical aptasensor developed to realize the detection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) bacteria based on a signal amplification strategy. The carbon screen-printed electrode (CSPE) surface was modified by MIL-101(Cr)/Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT), which significantly increased the effective surface area of the electrode, thus resulting in further F23 aptamer immobilization at the surface of the modified electrode. As a result, the P. aeruginosa can be efficiently captured onto the surface of the aptasensor. Moreover, aptamer immobilized on the two-dimensional graphitic carbon nitride complex with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs/c-g-C3N4/Apt) was used as an electrochemical signal label, connected to P. aeruginosa bacteria at the modified electrode. This strategy increased the aptamer surface density and the sensitivity for detecting P. aeruginosa. Also, the resultant material was thoroughly characterized using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis techniques. A highly sensitive voltammetric aptasensor for P. aeruginosa detection was obtained via this strategy at the limit of detection of 1 Colony-forming unit (CFU)/mL (σ = 3). Therefore, this proposed strategy with dual signal amplification can be a promising platform for simple, practical, reliable, and sensitive method for P. aeruginosa.

Abstract
Various coronaviruses, which cause a wide range of human and animal diseases, have emerged in the past 50 years. This may be due to their abilities to recombine, mutate, and infect multiple species and cell types. A novel coronavirus, which is a family of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), has been termed COVID-19 by the World Health Organization (WHO). COVID-19 is the strain that has not been previously identified in humans. The early identification and diagnosis of the virus is crucial for effective pandemic prevention. In this study, we review shortly various diagnostic methods for virus assay and focus on recent advances in electrochemical biosensors for COVID-19 detection.

Abstract
We describe the preparation and characterization of an aptamer-based electrochemical sensor to lung cancer tumor markers in human blood. The highly reproducible aptamer sensing layer with a high density (up to 70% coverage) on the gold electrode was made. Electrochemical methods and confocal laser scanning microscopy were used to study the stability of the aptamer layer structure and binding ability. A new blocking agent, a thiolated oligonucleotide with an unrelated sequence, was applied to fill the aptamer layer’s defects. Electrochemical aptasensor signal processing was enhanced using deep learning and computer simulation of the experimental data array. It was found that the combinations (coupled and tripled) of cyclic voltammogram features allowed for distinguishing between the samples from lung cancer patients and healthy candidates with a mean accuracy of 0.73. The capacitive component from the non-Faradic electrochemical impedance spectroscopy data indicated the tumor marker’s presence in a sample. These findings allowed for the creation of highly informative aptasensors for early lung cancer diagnostics.

Abstract
In vitro molecular circuits, based on DNA-programmable chemistries, can perform an increasing range of high-level functions, such as molecular level computation, image or chemical pattern recognition and pattern generation. Most reported demonstrations, however, can only accept nucleic acids as input signals. Real-world applications of these programmable chemistries critically depend on strategies to interface them with a variety of non-DNA inputs, in particular small biologically relevant chemicals. We introduce here a general strategy to interface DNA-based circuits with non-DNA signals, based on input-translating modules. These translating modules contain a DNA response part and an allosteric protein sensing part, and use a simple design that renders them fully tunable and modular. They can be repurposed to either transmit or invert the response associated with the presence of a given input. By combining these translating-modules with robust and leak-free amplification motifs, we build sensing circuits that provide a fluorescent quantitative time-response to the concentration of their small-molecule input, with good specificity and sensitivity. The programmability of the DNA layer can be leveraged to perform DNA based signal processing operations, which we demonstrate here with logical inversion, signal modulation and a classification task on two inputs. The DNA circuits are also compatible with standard biochemical conditions, and we show the one-pot detection of an enzyme through its native metabolic activity. We anticipate that this sensitive small-molecule-to-DNA conversion strategy will play a critical role in the future applications of molecular-level circuitry.

Abstract
In this study, we design an electrochemical aptasensor with an enzyme-free amplification method to detect tryptophan (Trp). For the amplified electrochemical signal, the screen-printed electrode was modified with dendritic gold nanostructures (DGNs)/magnetic double-charged diazoniabicyclo [2.2.2] octane dichloride silica hybrid (Fe3O4@SiO2/DABCO) to increase the surface area as well as electrical conductivity, and the hemin/G-quadruplex aptamer was immobilized. The presence of Trp improved the catalytic characteristic of hemin/G-quadruplex structure, which resulted in the efficient catalysis of the H2O2 reduction. As the concentration of Trp increased, the intensity of H2O2 reduction signal increased, and Trp was measured in the range of 0.007–200 nM with a detection limit of 0.002 nM. Compared with previous models, our sensor displayed higher detection sensitivity and specificity for Trp. Furthermore, we demonstrated that the proposed aptasensor successfully determined Trp in human serum samples, thereby proving its practical applicability.

Abstract
Exosomes, small extracellular vesicles, are released by various cell types. They are found in bodily fluids, including blood, urine, serum, and saliva, and play essential roles in intercellular communication. Exosomes contain various biomarkers, such as nucleic acids and proteins, that reflect the status of their parent cells. Since they influence tumorigenesis and metastasis in cancer patients, exosomes are excellent noninvasive potential indicators for early cancer detection. Aptamers with specific binding properties have distinct advantages over antibodies, making them effective versatile bioreceptors for the detection of exosome biomarkers. Here, we review various aptamer-based exosome detection approaches based on signaling methods, such as fluorescence, colorimetry, and chemiluminescence, focusing on electrochemical strategies that are easier, cost-effective, and more sensitive than others. Further, we discuss the clinical applications of electrochemical exosome analysis strategies as well as future research directions in this field.

Abstract
The high electrocatalytic performance plays a decisive role in the efficient electrochemical sensing of electrocatalysts. A spiral chiral carbon tube (HLCNT) loaded with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) was prepared by electrochemical methods. Dopamine was first electropolymerized on the surface of the HLCNT, and then it acted as a localizer to uniformly load the AuNPs onto the surface of the HLCNT. The dopamine-localized gold nanoparticles @ left-handed spiral chiral carbon nanotubes (HLCNT-AuNPs-2) material combined the chiral structure of chiral carbon nanotubes and the high conductivity of AuNPs. The HLCNT-AuNPs-2 realized the qualitative and quantitative detection of tyrosine (Tyr) and tryptophan (Trp) isomers by their different oxidation potentials and current signals. Through quantitative detection, the analytical results showed that the detection limit of l-Trp was calculated to be 5.31 μM, and the detection limit of l-Tyr was 9.04 μM. More importantly, the material realized the real sample detection of amino acids, which is of great significance for the practical detection of amino acid isomers in medicine and biology.

An electrochemical impedimetric sensing platform based on a peptide aptamer identified by high-throughput molecular docking for sensitive l-arginine detection. Bioelectrochemistry 2020; 137:107634.

Abstract
As a primary building block for protein synthesis, l-arginine (l-Arg) is also a precursor for the synthesis of important metabolites, and is involved in various physiological and pathophysiological processes. l-Arg is a potential biomarker in clinical diagnosis and nutritional status assessment, making it valuable to quantify and monitor this biomolecule. In this study, peptide aptamers that specifically interact with l-Arg were identified by high-throughput molecular docking, and the binding capacities between the synthesized peptide aptamers and l-Arg were then measured by isothermal titration calorimetry. We hypothesized that the peptide aptamer with the greatest binding capacity could be used as the recognition element in a biosensor. A chemosynthetic peptide aptamer modified with mercaptan and spacer units (thioctic acid-GGGG-FGHIHEGY) was thus used to construct label-free electrochemical impedimetric biosensors for l-Arg based on gold electrodes. The optimum biosensor showed good sensitivity to l-Arg with a linear range of 0.1 pM-0.1 mM, and the calculated limit of detection (three times the signal-to-noise ratio) was 0.01 pM. Interference studies and assays of diluted serum samples were also carried out, and satisfactory results obtained. In conclusion, a potential method of peptide aptamer screening and biosensor fabrication for detecting small biological molecules was demonstrated.
