Talanta 2024; 276:126250. [PMID: 38743969 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126250] [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: 02/26/2024] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024]
Abstract
In this research, self-screening aptamer and MOFs-derived nanomaterial have been combined to construct electrochemical aptasensor for environmental detection. By utilizing the large specific surface area of reduced graphene oxide (rGO), ZIF-8 was grown in situ on surface of rGO, and the composites was pyrolyzed to obtain MOFs-derived porous carbon materials (rGO-NCZIF). Thanks to the synergistic effect between rGO and NCZIF, the complex exhibits remarkable characteristics, including a high electron transfer rate and electrocatalytic activity. In addition, the orderly arrangement of imidazole ligands within ZIF-8 facilitated the uniform doping of nitrogen elements into the porous carbon, thereby significantly enhancing its electrochemical performance. After carboxylation, rGO-NCZIF was functionalized with self-screening aptamer for fabricating electrochemical aptasensor, which can be used to detect Erwinia cypripedii, a kind of quarantine plant bacteria, with detection limit of 4.92 × 103 cfu/mL. Due to the simplicity and speed, the aptasensor is suitable for rapid customs inspection and quarantine. Additionally, the universality of this sensing strategy was verified through exosomes detection by changing the aptamer. The results indicated that the rGO-NCZIF-based electrochemical aptasensor had practical value in the environmental and medical fields.

Abstract
Developing an easy-to-use and non-invasive sensor for monitoring progesterone (P4) as a multi-functional hormone is highly demanded for point-of-care testing. In this study, an ultrasensitive electrochemical aptasensor is fabricated for monitoring P4 in human biofluids. The sensing interface was designed based on the porous nitrogen-doped hollow carbon spheres (N-HCSs). The N-HCSs covalently immobilized high-dense aptamer (Apt) sequences as the bioreceptor of P4. The electron transfer of the redox probe was hindered by incubating P4 on the aptasensor surface and forming the P4-Apt complexes. Meanwhile, the signaling was decreased under two wide linear dynamic ranges (LDRs) from 10 fM to 5.6 μM with a limit of detection (LOD) value of 3.33 fM. The aptasensor presented satisfactory selectivity in the presence of different off-target species with successful feasibility for P4 detection in some human urine and saliva samples. The aptasensor with high sensitivity, as an advantage for on-site and sensitive measurement of P4, can be considered a non-invasive tool for routine analysis of real-world clinical samples method.

Abstract
In this study, a nanocomposite was synthesized by incorporating graphitic carbon nanosheets, carboxyl-functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes, and zirconium oxide nanoparticles. The resulting nanocomposite was utilized for the modification of a glassy carbon electrode. Subsequently, matrix metalloproteinase aptamer (AptMMP-9) was immobilized onto the electrode surface through the application of ethyl-3-(3-(dimethylamino)propyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride-N-hydroxysuccinimide (EDC-NHS) chemistry. Morphological characterization of the nanomaterials and the nanocomposite was performed using field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). The nanocomposite substantially increased the electroactive surface area by 205%, facilitating enhanced immobilization of AptMMP-9. The efficacy of the biosensor was evaluated using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). Under optimal conditions, the fabricated sensor demonstrated a broad range of detection from 50 to 1250 pg/mL with an impressive lower limit of detection of 10.51 pg/mL. In addition, the aptasensor exhibited remarkable sensitivity, stability, excellent selectivity, reproducibility, and real-world applicability when tested with human serum and saliva samples. In summary, our developed aptasensor exhibits significant potential as an advanced biosensing tool for the point-of-care quantification of MMP-9, promising advancements in biomarker detection for practical applications.

Abstract
Simultaneous selective determination of Fe (Ⅱ) and Fe (Ⅲ) is of great significance to the study of iron ion tracking and release of iron supplement in gastric fluid. In this paper, a composite material (N-CQDs/AgNPs/β-CD) was prepared by a one-pot method. The various characterizations confirmed the silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) grew in situ on the surface of nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots (N-CQDs), and the β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and AgNPs linked together by Ag-O bonds finally presented gourd-like nanoparticles on the surface of N-CQDs. Then, N-CQDs/AgNPs/β-CD modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was applied to detect Fe(II) and Fe(III) simultaneously. The cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) results confirmed that N-CQDs/AgNPs/β-CD enhanced electrode performances because of the synergistic effect between N-CQDs, AgNPs and β-CD. The sensor was successfully applied for the determination by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) of Fe(II) and Fe(III) released from four iron supplementations in simulated gastric fluid (SGF).

Abstract
The demonstration of the first enzyme-based electrode to detect glucose, published in 1967 by S. J. Updike and G. P. Hicks, kicked off huge efforts in building sensors where biomolecules are exploited as native or modified to achieve new or improved sensing performances. In this growing area, bionanotechnology has become prominent in demonstrating how nanomaterials can be tailored into responsive nanostructures using biomolecules and integrated into sensors to detect different analytes, e.g., biomarkers, antibiotics, toxins and organic compounds as well as whole cells and microorganisms with very high sensitivity. Accounting for the natural affinity between biomolecules and almost every type of nanomaterials and taking advantage of well-known crosslinking strategies to stabilize the resulting hybrid nanostructures, biosensors with broad applications and with unprecedented low detection limits have been realized. This review depicts a comprehensive collection of the most recent biochemical and biophysical strategies for building hybrid devices based on bioconjugated nanomaterials and their applications in label-free detection for diagnostics, food and environmental analysis.

Abstract
Lignosulfonate (LS), a biomass by-product from sulfite pulping and the paper-making industry, which has many excellent characteristics, such as renewable, environmentally friendly, amphiphilic nature, and especially the abundant content of hydrophilic functional groups in its architecture, making it highly reactive and can be used as a sensitive material in sensors to show changes in electrical signals. Herein, we report a one-step in situ method to fabricate lignosulfonate-modified reduced graphene oxide (LS-rGO) green biosensors, which can be used for the sensitive electrochemical detection of dopamine without interference from uric acid and ascorbic acid. The modified LS molecular layers act as chemical-sensing layers, while the rGO planar sheets function as electric-transmitting layers in the as-assembled dopamine biosensors. After the in situ-decoration of the LS modifier, the sensing performance of LS-rGO for the detection of dopamine was much higher than that of the pure rGO electrode, and the highest current response of the biosensor toward dopamine greatly improved from 11.2 μA to 52.07 μA. The electrochemical sensitivity of the modified biosensor was optimized to be 0.43 μA μM-1, and the detection limit was as low as 0.035 μM with a wide linear range (0.12-100 μM), which is better than that of most previously reported metal- and organic-based modified graphene electrodes. The newly designed biosensor has unique advantages including rapid, stable, sensitive and selective detection of dopamine without interference, providing a facile pathway for the synthesis of green resource-derived sensing materials instead of the traditional toxic and expensive modifiers.

Abstract
Sensitive, rapid, and low-cost detection of drug traces in sewage is very important for drug monitoring and control. In this study, a dual functional and recyclable magnetic fluorescent molecularly imprinted polymers (MFMIPs) sensor with high sensitivity for rapid detection and purification of methcathinone in sewage was developed. MFMIPs was prepared via molecular imprinting and conjugation with carbon dots as a fluorescent reporter on Fe3O4 (Fe3O4-MIPs@CDs). With strong recognition and adsorption toward methcathinone by the specific cavities on the surface of MFMIPs, the fluorescence of the sensor could dramatically be quenched once anchored with methcathinone. Under optimal conditions, the MFMIPs sensor presented high sensitivity with a linear range of 0.5-100 nM and a detection limit of 0.2 nM, which would be used to monitor drug prevalence and consumption within a certain region. This sensor was applied to the assay of methcathinone in sewage samples collected from Yuebeiyuan, Yanghu, and Xujiahu sewage pumping stations of Yuelu District. The calculated concentrations of methcathinone were 4.80, 15.33, and 8.59 nM in sewage samples, which were in good agreement with data tested by LC-MS/MS. For another function, MFMIPs exhibited purification toward methcathinone and the adsorption capacity was about 0.27 mg/g in a real sewage sample. Moreover, the sensor could be recycled and reused at least five times with the aid of an external magnetic field. Collectively, with good analytical performance and excellent recognition and selectivity to methcathinone, the proposed sensing system based on the magnetic core and molecularly imprinted polymers would open a door to establish highly sensitive and effective sensing systems for sewage analysis and purification.

Abstract
During recent decades, we have witnessed a great improvement in the performance of aptamer-based sensors, specifically when aptamers are combined with new nanomaterials; as a platform for biosensors. The design of hollow carbon-based materials has also received a lot of attention due to its excellent properties in various applications. Herein, we aim at designing hierarchical porous Ni(OH)2 nanosheets on hollow N-doped carbon nanoboxes Ni(OH)2@N-C n-box). In this sense, we obtained the hollow N-C n-box skeletons from the Fe2O3 nanocubes template. The development of label-free electrochemical aptasensor was carried out using the covalently immobilizing NH2-functionalized aptamer on Ni(OH)2@N-C n-box as an efficient substrate. The Ni(OH)2@N-C n-box was characterized using scanning fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Brunauer, Emmett and Teller (BET), transmission electron microscopes (TEM) and electron microscopy (FESEM). The electrochemical evaluations clarified the fact that a linear relationship exists between the alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) contents and the charge transfer resistance (Rct) (from 1 fg mL-1 to 100 ng mL-1) with a low detection limit of 0.3 fg mL-1. Moreover, regarding the aptasensor, the superior detection recoveries were experienced in real biological samples, illustrating its great detection performance and practical feasibility. Considering the aptasensor application, these studies showed that Ni(OH)2@N-C n-box possesses different enhanced electrochemical features, making it appropriate as an electrode material for aptasensor application.

Abstract
Recognition of misused stimulant drugs has always been a hot topic from a medical and judicial perspective. Methamphetamine (MAMP) is an addictive and illegal drug that profoundly affects the central nervous system. Like other illicit drugs, the detection of MAMP in biological and street samples is vital for several organizations such as forensic medicine, anti-drug headquarters and diagnostic clinics. By emerging nanotechnology and exploiting nanomaterials in sensing applications, a great deal of attention has been given to the design of analytical sensors in MAMP tracing. For the first time, this study has briefly reviewed all the optical and electrochemical sensors in MAMP detection from earlier so far. How various receptors with engineering nanomaterials allow developing novel approaches to measure MAMP have been studied. Fundamental concepts related to optical and electrochemical recognition assays in which nanomaterials have been used and relevant MAMP sensing applications have been comprehensively covered. Challenges, opportunities and future outlooks of this field have also been discussed at the end.

Abstract
:
The electrochemical analysis offers a number of important advantages such as providing
information on pharmaceuticals analysis and their in vivo redox processes and pharmacological activity.
The interest in developing electrochemical sensing devices for use in clinical assays is growing rapidly.
Metallic nanoparticles can be synthesized and modified with various chemical functional groups,
which allow them to be conjugated with antibodies, ligands, and drugs of interest.
:
In this article, the novel developments to enhance the performance of sensor modified with metal nanoparticles
of pharmaceuticals were reviewed. A discussion of the properties of metal nanostructures
and their application in drug analysis is presented. Their application as a modifier agent in determining
low levels of drugs in pharmaceutical dosage forms and biological samples is discussed. It has been
found that the electrocatalytic effect of the electrode, sensitivity and selectivity were increased using

Abstract
The importance of RAC tracking in human biofluids has boosted many demands for designing an ultrasensitive tool to determine the trace value of the RAC from clinical, judicial, and forensic centers. In this study, an electrochemical biodevice has developed for the highly selective detection of this illegal feed additive under a double recognition strategy of the aptamer (Apt) and molecular imprinting polymer (MIP) on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The sensing relies on this fact that both the MIP and Apt act synergistically to trap the RAC molecules. The sensing surface fabrication steps have been monitored by some electrochemical techniques such as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV(. The charge transfer resistance (Rct) value of the redox probe as a representative of the biodevice response has increased linearly with the RAC concentration increasing in a dynamic range of 1 fM to 1.90 µM. The detection limit (LOD) value has been estimated to be 330 aM, lower than all of the reported methods in the RAC sensing. Furthermore, the practical feasibility of biodevice has been evaluated in some human blood serum and urine samples. This strategy offers some useful advantages in reliable detection of the RAC, which may help in the routine analysis, as mandated by regulatory agencies.

Abstract
The study of graphene-based carbon nanocomposites has remarkably increased in recent years. Functionalized graphene-based nanostructures, including graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide, have great potential as new innovative electrode materials in the fabrication of novel electrochemical sensors. Electrochemical sensors based on aptamers attracted great attention because of their high sensitivity and selectivity, and simple instrumentation, as well as low production cost. Aptamers as a potent alternative to antibodies are functional nucleic acids with a high tendency to specific analytes. Electrochemical aptasensors show specific recognition ability for a wide range of analytes. Although aptamers are selected in vitro in contrast to antibodies, they are interesting due to advantages like high stability, easy chemical modifications, and the potential to be employed in nanostructured device fabrication or electrochemical sensing devices. Recently, new nanomaterials have shown a significant impact on the production of electrochemical sensors with high efficiency and performance. This review aims to give an outline of electrochemical aptasensors based on the graphene family materials and discuss the detection mechanism in this type of aptasensors. The present review summarizes some of the recent achievements in graphene-based aptasensors and includes their recent electroanalytical applications. Graphical Abstract Graphical Abstract.
