Abstract
Bacterial infections during wound healing impede the healing process and trigger local or systemic inflammatory reactions. Consequently, there is an urgent need to develop a new material with antimicrobial and antioxidant properties to promote infected wound healing. A synergistically antimicrobial and antioxidant hyaluronic acid hydrogel (HMn) is prepared by employing MnO2 nanosheets into 4ARM-PEG5000-SH crosslinked methacrylated hyaluronic acid (HAMA) network. The coordination between sulfhydryl groups of 4ARM-PEG5000-SH and MnO2 nanosheets ensures entrapment of the nanosheets within the hydrogel, while the interaction between 4ARM-PEG5000-SH and HAMA results in facile gelation through thiol-ene click reaction. MnO2 nanosheets exhibit strong photothermal properties and reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging abilities, while hyaluronic acid promotes wound healing. When subjected to near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, the HMn achieves a bactericidal rate of 95.24 % for Staphylococcus aureus and nearly 100 % for Escherichia coli. In animal experiments, treatment with the HMn under NIR irradiation results in the best wound healing outcomes. Both in vitro and vivo biocompatible assays demonstrate that the HMn has rarely cell cytotoxicity and tissue damage. The HMn is easy to prepare and has good biocompatibility as well as efficient antibacterial and antioxidant properties, providing a novel method for the treatment of infected wounds.

Abstract
Plasmonic nanoparticles are an emerging tool for developing label-free multicolorimetric sensors for biosensing and chemosensing applications. The color absorbed by nanoparticles from visible light is influenced by their size, shape, orientation, and interparticle distance. Differently sized and shaped gold and silver nanoparticles exhibit a wide range of colors, aiding in the development of label-free sensors. Etching is the process of oxidizing nanoparticles, which alters their aspect ratio, shape, plasmonic peak, and outward appearance. It is typically used to create sensitive sensing platforms. Through etching, analytes could be detected in a simple, sensitive, and selective manner. The multicolor readout of nanoparticle etching-based multicolorimetric sensors can overcome the limitations of conventional colorimetric assays and improve the accuracy of visual inspection. This review discusses different approaches for target sensing using nanoparticle etching strategies like direct etching, enzyme-mediated etching, chemical reaction-driven etching, and anti-etching-based sensors and their mechanisms. In the future, etching strategies could be modified into portable sensing devices to detect a variety of analytes, which will aid in the development of on-time, in situ, and point-of-care sensing systems.

Abstract
Biomolecular operations, which involve the conversion of molecular signals or interactions into specific functional outputs, are fundamental to the field of biology and serve as the important foundation for the design of diagnostic and therapeutic systems. To maximize their functionalities and broaden their applicability, it is crucial to develop novel outputs and facile chemical transformation methods. With this aim, in this study, we present a straightforward method for converting nucleic acid signals into fluorescein outputs that exhibit a wide range of functionalities. This operation is designed through a DNA-templated reaction based on riboflavin-photocatalyzed oxidation of dihydrofluorescein, which is readily prepared by simple NaBH4 reduction of the fluorescein with no complicated chemical caging steps. The templated photooxidation exhibits high efficiency (kapp = 2.7 × 10-3/s), generating a clear fluorescein output signal distinguishable from a low background, originating from the high stability of the synthesized dihydrofluorescein. This facile and efficient operation allows the nucleic acid-initiated activation of various fluorescein functions, such as fluorescence and artificial oxidase activity, which are applied in the design of novel bioanalytical systems, including fluorescent and colorimetric DNA sensors. The operation presented herein would expand the scope of biomolecular circuit systems for diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

Near-Field Communication Tag for Colorimetric Glutathione Determination with a Paper-Based Microfluidic Device. BIOSENSORS 2023; 13:267. [PMID: 36832033 PMCID: PMC9954394 DOI: 10.3390/bios13020267] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2023] [Revised: 02/09/2023] [Accepted: 02/11/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Here, we propose a microfluidic paper-based analytical device (µPAD) implemented with a near-field communication (NFC) tag as a portable, simple and fast colorimetric method for glutathione (GSH) determination. The proposed method was based on the fact that Ag+ could oxidize 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) into oxidized blue TMB. Thus, the presence of GSH could cause the reduction of oxidized TMB, which resulted in a blue color fading. Based on this finding, we developed a method for the colorimetric determination of GSH using a smartphone. A µPAD implemented with the NFC tag allowed the harvesting of energy from a smartphone to activate the LED that allows the capture of a photograph of the µPAD by the smartphone. The integration between electronic interfaces into the hardware of digital image capture served as a means for quantitation. Importantly, this new method shows a low detection limit of 1.0 µM. Therefore, the most important features of this non-enzymatic method are high sensitivity and a simple, fast, portable and low-cost determination of GSH in just 20 min using a colorimetric signal.
