Droplet magnetic-controlled microfluidic chip integrated nucleic acid extraction and amplification for the detection of pathogens and tumor mutation sites. Anal Chim Acta 2023; 1271:341469. [PMID: 37328249 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2023.341469] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2023] [Revised: 05/29/2023] [Accepted: 06/01/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Traditional nucleic acid extraction and detection is based on open operation, which may cause cross-contamination and aerosol formation. This study developed a droplet magnetic-controlled microfluidic chip integrated nucleic acid extraction, purification and amplification. The reagent is sealed in oil to form a droplet, and the nucleic acid is extracted and purified by controlling the movement of the magnetic beads (MBs) through a permanent magnet, ensuring a closed environment. This chip can automatically extract nucleic acid from multiple samples within 20 min, and can be directly placed in the in situ amplification instrument for amplification without further transfer of nucleic acid, characterized by simple, fast, time-saving and labor-saving. The results showed that the chip was able to detect <10 copies/test SARS-CoV-2 RNA, and EGFR exon 21 L858R mutations were detected in H1975 cells as low as 4 cells. In addition, on the basis of the droplet magnetic-controlled microfluidic chip, we further developed a multi-target detection chip, which used MBs to divide the nucleic acid of the sample into three parts. And the macrolides resistance mutations A2063G and A2064G, and the P1 gene of mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) were successfully detected in clinical samples by the multi-target detection chip, providing the possibility for future application in the detection of multiple pathogens.

Abstract
The detection of nucleic acids has become significantly important in molecular diagnostics, gene therapy, mutation analysis, forensic investigations and biomedical development, and so on. In recent years, exonuclease III (Exo III) as an enzyme in the 3'-5' exonuclease family has evolved as a frequently used technique for signal amplification of low level DNA target detection. Different from the traditional target amplification strategies, the Exo III-assisted amplification strategy has been used for target DNA detection through directly amplifying the amounts of signal reagents. The Exo III-assisted amplification strategy has its unique advantages and characters, because the character of non-specific recognition of Exo III can overcome the limitation of a target-to-probe ratio of 1 : 1 in the traditional nucleic acid hybridization assay and acquire higher sensitivity. In this review, we selectively discuss the recent advances in the Exo III-assisted amplification strategy, including the amplification strategy integrated with nanomaterials, biosensors, hairpin probes and other nucleic acid detection methods. We also discuss the strengths and limitations of each strategy and methods to overcome the limitations.

Abstract
Nucleic acid is the main material for storing, copying, and transmitting genetic information. Gene sequencing is of great significance in DNA damage research, gene therapy, mutation analysis, bacterial infection, drug development, and clinical diagnosis. Gene detection has a wide range of applications, such as environmental, biomedical, pharmaceutical, agriculture and forensic medicine to name a few. Compared with Sanger sequencing, high-throughput sequencing technology has the advantages of larger output, high resolution, and low cost which greatly promotes the application of sequencing technology in life science research. Magnetic nanoparticles, as an important part of nanomaterials, have been widely used in various applications because of their good dispersion, high surface area, low cost, easy separation in buffer systems and signal detection. Based on the above, the application of magnetic nanoparticles in nucleic acid detection was reviewed.
