Abstract
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a common pathogen that is dangerous to humans' health. Herein, a novel upconversion fluorescent biosensor based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer from aptamer-labeled upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs-apt) as donor and cobalt oxyhydroxide (CoOOH) nanosheets as acceptor was designed to detect S. aureus in complex matrices. The principle of the work relies on fluorescence resonance energy transfer as UCNPs-apt can self-assemble on CoOOH nanosheet surfaces by van der Waals forces to effectively quench the fluorescence. When S. aureus was added, the aptamer was able to preferentially capture the target, resulting in the dissociation of donor and acceptor and the recovery of fluorescence. The structure and morphology of the nanostructures were assigned in detail by a series of characterizations, and the energy transfer mechanism was evaluated by time-resolved lifetime measurements. Under the optimal conditions, a linear calibration plot was obtained in a concentration range of 45-4.5 × 106 CFU/mL with a limit of detection of 15 CFU/mL. In addition, the proposed biosensor was used for S. aureus detection in real samples (e.g., pork, beef), and the detection result showed no significant difference (p > 0.05) compared with the conventional plate count approach. Hence, the fabricated biosensor holds a potential application for S. aureus in food analysis and public health.

Rapid and visual detection of Staphylococcus aureus in milk using a recombinase polymerase amplification-lateral flow assay combined with immunomagnetic separation. J Appl Microbiol 2022; 133:3741-3754. [PMID: 36073301 DOI: 10.1111/jam.15811] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2022] [Revised: 08/31/2022] [Accepted: 09/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study was to develop a novel approach using lateral flow recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA-LF) combined with immunomagnetic separation (IMS) for the rapid detection of Staphylococcus aureus in milk. METHODS AND RESULTS Under optimum conditions, the average capture efficiency values (CEs) for S. aureus strains (104 CFU ml-1 ) was above 95.0% in PBST and ~80% in milk within 45 min with 0.7 mg immunomagnetic beads. The RPA-LF assay, which comprised DNA amplification via RPA at 39°C for 10 min and visualization of the amplicons through LF strips for 5 min, detected S. aureus within 15 min. The method only detected S. aureus and did not show cross-reaction with other bacteria, exhibiting a high level of specificity. Sensitivity experiments confirmed a detection limit of RPA-LF assay as low as 600 fg reaction-1 for the S. aureus genome (corresponding to approximately 36 CFU of S. aureus), which was about 16.7-fold more sensitive than that of the conventional PCR method. When RPA-LF was used in combination with IMS to detect S. aureus inoculated into artificially contaminated milk, it exhibited a detection limit of approximately 40 CFU reaction-1 . CONCLUSIONS The newly developed IMS-RPA-LF method enabled detection of S. aureus at levels as low as 40 CFU reaction-1 in milk samples without culture enrichment for an overall testing time of only 70 min. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY The newly developed IMS-RPA-LF assay effectively combines sample preparation, amplification, and detection into a single platform. Because of its high sensitivity, specificity, and speed, the IMS-RPA-LF assay will have important implications for the rapid detection of S. aureus in contaminated food.

Abstract
Biofilms are the universal lifestyle of bacteria enclosed in extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) on the contact surfaces of food processing facilities. The EPS-encapsulated foodborne bacterial pathogens are the main food contaminant sources, posing a serious threat to human health. The microcrystalline, sophisticated and dynamic biofilms necessitate the development of conventional microscopic imaging and spectral technology. Nanosensors, which can transfer the biochemical information into optical signals, have recently emerged for biofilm optical detection with high sensitivity and high spatial resolution at nanoscale scopes. Therefore, the aim of this review is to clarify the main detection scope in biofilms and the detection principles of optical nanosensors arousing Raman enhancement, fluoresce conversion and color change. The difficulties and challenges of biofilm characterization including the secretion and variation of main biochemical components are first discussed, the details about the principles and application examples of bioassays targeting foodborne pathogens based on optical nanosensors are then summarized. Finally, the challenges and future trends in developing optical nanosensors are also highlighted. The current review indicates that optical nanosensors have taken the challenges of detecting biofilm in complex food samples, including the characterization of biofilm formation mechanism, identification of microbial metabolic activities, diagnosis of potential food pathogens and sanitation monitoring of food processing equipment. Numerous in-depth explorations and various trials have proven that the bioassays based on multifunctional optical nanosensors are promising to ensure and promote food safety and quality. However, there still remains a daunting challenge to structure reproducible, biocompatible and applicable nano-sensors for biofilm characterization, identification, and imaging.

Abstract
In this work, quantum dots (QDs) of various heterostructured compositions and shell thicknesses are used as Förster or fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) donors and acceptors to optimize QD-QD FRET sensing through materials design. While several reports have highlighted the advantages of using QD-dye, rather than dye-dye, FRET in sensing applications, QD-QD FRET has lagged behind in development as a result of high background signal from direct acceptor excitation. However, in designing sensors for longitudinal studies, QD-dye sensors are limited by the photostability of the fluorescent dye. While fluorescence generally affords higher sensitivity than absorbance-based readouts, the instrumentation needed for detecting fluorescence can be expensive, motivating the development of sensors bright enough to be seen by eye or imaged with cheap consumer electronics. Harnessing the exceptional brightness of QDs, our study focuses on the development of QD-QD FRET pairs where color change is achieved for visual readout and instrument-free sensing. We demonstrate that bulk semiconductor material characteristics can be used to a priori predict and tailor the behavior of QD-QD FRET systems, and our findings show that it is possible to create QD donors that are brighter than their acceptors through concerted compositional and morphological choices in heterostructured QDs. This is significant for developing visual sensors, as we show that the most profound color change occurs when the direct acceptor emission is lower than that of the donor. Finally, the use of an optimal cadmium-free QD-QD FRET pair is presented in a pH sensor that shows a large range of pH-dependent color change with bright, instrument-free readout.

Abstract
In acidic solutions, Bi(III) was reduced by NaBH4 to form BiH3 gas. Using I3(-)graphene oxide (GO) as absorption solution, the BiH3 gas reacted with I3(-) to form I(-) that resulted in the I3(-) concentration decreasing. In the absence of BiH3, the I3(-) concentration was high, and as receptors it was closed to the surfaces of GO which was as donors. Then the surface plasmon resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) energy of GO transfers to I3(-) heavily, and results in the RRS quenching severely. With the increase of the Bi(III) concentration, the receptors and the RRS energy transfer (RRS-ET) decreased, so the RRS intensity enhanced linearly at 370nm. The RRS intensity was linear to the Bi(III) concentration in 0.05-5.5μmol/L, with a detection limit of 4ng/mL Bi. A new RRS-ET spectral method was developed for the determination of trace Bi(III). Using I3(-) as the absorption solution, silver nanorod (AgNR) as sol substrate and Vitoria blue B (VBB) as molecular probe, a SERS method was developed for detection of Bi.
