[PMID: 37857063 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115754] [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: 07/01/2023] [Revised: 10/06/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 10/21/2023]
Abstract
Carbendazim is often used in agriculture to prevent crop diseases, even though it has been associated with health concerns. To ensure the safety of food products and comply with environmental regulations, an ultrasensitive method for carbendazim determination must be developed. In this study, a new electrochemical molecularly imprinted polymer-aptasensor based on hemin-Al-metal organic framework@gold nanoparticles (H-Al-MOF@AuNPs) was developed for sensitive and selective carbendazim detection. Hemin linked to the surface of the Al-metal organic framework also possesses outstanding peroxidase-like qualities that can electrocatalyse the reduction of H2O2. Thus, H-Al-MOF functions as an in-situ probe. Additionally, AuNPs offer many binding sites to load carbendazim aptamers and create an imprinted polymer-aptasensing interface. Dopamine is the chemical functional monomer in the electropolymerised film, while carbendazim is the template molecule. Thus, compared to the molecularly imprinted polymer or aptasensor alone, the molecularly imprinted polymer-aptasensor showed greater selectivity due to the synergistic action of the polymer and carbendazim aptamer towards carbendazim. A decrease in peak current was observed by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and chronoamperometry (CA) as the concentration of carbendazim increased. This possibly resulted from carbendazim connecting to the carbendazim aptamer and simultaneously blocking the imprinted polymer cavities on the surface of the modified electrode, which reduced the transfer of electrons. Signals were observed for hemin DPV and H2O2 catalytic reduction CA. DPV and CA showed that the linear ranges for carbendazim were 0.3 fmol L-1-10 pmol L-1 and 0.7 fmol L-1-10 pmol L-1, respectively, with limits of detection of 80 and 300 amol L-1. Satisfactory recoveries were obtained with tap water, apple juice, and tomato juice samples, demonstrating that the proposed sensor has potential for food and environmental analysis.

Smartphone-assisted colorimetric aptasensor for rapid detection of carbendazim residue in agriculture products based on the oxidase-mimicking activity of octahedral Ag 2O nanoparticles. Talanta 2023; 265:124845. [PMID: 37385190 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.124845] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2023] [Revised: 05/20/2023] [Accepted: 06/19/2023] [Indexed: 07/01/2023]
Abstract
Carbendazim (CBZ) is a widely used pesticides, and its excessive intake is serious damage to humans and animals. Herein, a stable and sensitive colorimetric aptasensor for rapid detection of CBZ residue has been established based on the enhancement of CBZ-specific aptamer (CZ-13) on oxidase-mimicking activity of octahedral Ag2O nanoparticles (NPs). The CZ-13 aptamer can significantly increase the catalytic activity by promoting the production of superoxide anion (·O2-) on the surface of Ag2O NPs and enhancing the affinity of octahedral Ag2O NPs to 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) molecules. In the presence of CBZ, the quantity of CZ-13 aptamer will be exhausted due to the specific binding to CBZ pesticide. Thus, the rest CZ-13 aptamer no longer enhanced the catalytic activity of octahedral Ag2O NPs, which leads to the change in color of sensing solution. The color change of sensing solution can be easily converted to the corresponding RGB value by a smartphone for quantitative and rapid detection of CBZ. The designed aptasensor has excellent sensitivity and specificity, and the limit of detection was determined as low as 7.35 μg L-1 for CBZ assay. Besides, the aptasensor exhibited good recoveries in the spiked cabbage, apple and cucumber, showing that it may have broad application prospects for detecting CBZ residues in agriculture products.

Abstract
Pesticides, chemical substances extensively employed in agriculture to optimize crop yields, pose potential risks to human and environmental health. Consequently, regulatory frameworks are in place to restrict pesticide residue concentrations in water intended for human consumption. These regulations are implemented to safeguard consumer safety and mitigate any adverse effects on the environment and public health. Although gas chromatography- and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS and LC-MS) are highly efficient techniques for pesticide quantification, their use is not suitable for real-time monitoring due to the need for sophisticated laboratory pretreatment of samples prior to analysis. Since they would enable analyte detection with selectivity and sensitivity without sample pretreatment, biosensors appear as a promising alternative. These consist of a bioreceptor allowing for specific recognition of the target and of a detection platform, which translates the biological interaction into a measurable signal. As early detection systems remain urgently needed to promptly alert and act in case of pollution, we review here the biosensors described in the literature for pesticide detection to advance their development for use in the field.

Abstract
Pesticides are applied widely to increase agricultural output and quality, however, this practice results in residual issues that not only harm the environment but also put people and animals' lives and health at risk. As a result, it is critical to find pesticide residues in a variety of sources, including crops, water supplies, and soil. Aptamers are more flexible in their synthesis and modification, have a high level of specificity, are inexpensive, and have good stability compared to conventional detection methods. They have therefore attracted a lot of interest in the industry. This study reviews the most recent aptasensor advancements in the detection of pesticide residues. Firstly, aptamers specifically binding to many pesticides are summarized. Secondly, the combination of aptasensors with colorimetric, fluorescent, surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), resonance Light Scattering (RLS), chemiluminescence (CL), electrochemical, and electrochemiluminescence (ECL) technologies are systematically introduced, and their advantages and disadvantages are expounded. Importantly, the aptasensors for the detection of various pesticides (organochlorine, organophosphorus, neonicotinoids, carbamates, and pyrethroids) that have been developed so far are systematically analyzed and discussed. Finally, the furture prospects and challenges of the aptasensors are highlighted. It is expected to offer suggestions for the later creation of novel, highly effective and sensitive aptasensors for the detection of pesticide residues.

Abstract
A biosensor system refers to a biomedical device, which detects biological, chemical, or biochemical components by converting those signals to an electrical signal by utilizing and uniting physical or chemical transducer with biorecognition elements. An electrochemical biosensor is generally based on the reaction of either production or consumption of electrons under a three-electrode system. Biosensor systems are exploited in a wide range of areas, such as medicine, agriculture, husbandry, food, industry, environment protection, quality control, waste disposal, and the military. Pathogenic infections are the third leading cause of death worldwide after cardiovascular diseases and cancer. Therefore, there is an urgent need for effective diagnostic tools to control food, water, and soil contamination result in protecting human life and health. Aptamers are peptide or oligonucleotide-based molecules that show very high affinity to their targets that are produced from large pools of random amino acid or oligonucleotide sequences. Generally, aptamers have been utilized for fundamental sciences and clinical implementations for their target-specific affinity and have been intensely exploited for different kinds of biosensor applications for approximately 30 years. The convergence of aptamers with biosensor systems enabled the construction of voltammetric, amperometric, and impedimetric biosensors for the detection of specific pathogens. In this review, electrochemical aptamer biosensors were evaluated by discussing the definition, types, and production techniques of aptamers, the advantages of aptamers as a biological recognition element against their alternatives, and a wide range of aptasensor examples from literature in the detection of specific pathogens.

Abstract
Due to the detrimental effects of cocaine on the human body such as organ damage, paranoia, immunodeficiency, cardiovascular disease, blood pressure, and stress, it is highly required to develop sensing approaches for its rapid and facile determination. Based on the signal enhancement capability of the UiO-66/AuNPs nanocomposite and acting as a capture agent, we designed a cost-effective fluorescent aptasensor for cocaine detection. The cocaine presence in the sample would cause a considerable escalation in the quenching of the fluorescence signal. The aptasensor achieved the linear response range over 0.5 μM-20 μM with a low detection limit of 0.178 μM. The selectivity of the designed aptasensing assay was successfully confirmed by examining several analgesic drugs. The aptasensor was employed for cocaine determination in human serum as the real samples. This method has a substantial benefit the for development of a low-cost and facile tool in medicine and forensic science.

Abstract
The combination of nanomaterials (NMs) and aptamers into aptasensors enables highly specific and sensitive detection of diverse pollutants. The great potential of aptasensors is recognized for the detection of diverse emerging organic pollutants (EOPs) in different environmental and biological matrices. In addition to high sensitivity and selectivity, NM-based aptasensors have many other advantages such as portability, miniaturization, facile use, and affordability. This work showcases the recent advances achieved in the design and fabrication of NM-based aptasensors for monitoring EOPs (e.g., hormones, phenolic contaminants, pesticides, and pharmaceuticals). On the basis of their sensing mechanisms, the covered aptasensing systems are classified as electrochemical, colorimetric, PEC, fluorescence, SERS, and ECL. Special attention has been paid to the fabrication processes, analytical achievements, and sensing mechanisms of NM-based aptasensors. Further, the practical utility of aptasensing approaches has also been assessed based on their basic performance metrics (e.g., detection limits, sensing ranges, and response times).

Abstract
Assays for carbendazim (Car) with high sensitivity and on-site screening have been urgently required to protect the ecosystem and prevent disease. In this work, a simple, sensitive, and reliable sensing system based on photoinduced electron transfer was established to detect carbendazim utilizing ultrathin graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) nanosheets and rhodamine B (RB). Carbendazim reacts with g-C3N4 by electrostatic interactions to form π-π stacking, and the quenching of the blue fluorescence is caused by electron transfer. While RB works as a reference fluorescence sensor without any fluorescence change, leading to obvious ratiometric fluorescence variation from blue to purple. Under optimal conditions, a favorable linear range from 20 to 180 nM was obtained, with a low detection limit of 5.89 nM. In addition, a portable smartphone sensing platform was successfully used for carbendazim detection in real samples with excellent anti-interference capability, demonstrating the potential applications of carbendazim monitoring.

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
Chemical and biological contaminants are of primary concern in ensuring seafood safety. Rapid detection of such contaminants is needed to keep us safe from being affected. For over three decades, immunoassay (IA) technology has been used for the detection of contaminants in seafood products. However, limitations inherent to antibody generation against small molecular targets that cannot elicit an immune response, along with the instability of antibodies under ambient conditions greatly limit their wider application for developing robust detection and monitoring tools, particularly for non-biomedical applications. As an alternative, aptamer-based biosensors (aptasensors) have emerged as a powerful yet robust analytical tool for the detection of a wide range of analytes. Due to the high specificity of aptamers in recognising targets ranging from small molecules to large proteins and even whole cells, these have been suggested to be viable molecular recognition elements (MREs) in the development of new diagnostic and biosensing tools for detecting a wide range of contaminants including heavy metals, antibiotics, pesticides, pathogens and biotoxins. In this review, we discuss the recent progress made in the field of aptasensors for detection of contaminants in seafood products with a view of effectively managing their potential human health hazards. A critical outlook is also provided to facilitate translation of aptasensors from academic laboratories to the mainstream seafood industry and consumer applications.

Abstract
AbstractA magnesium hydroxide co-precipitation sorbent-based method in the presence of an anionic surfactant (e.g., sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate) and high-performance liquid chromatography were used to preconcentrate and analyze fungicides in water and apple juice samples. The preconcentration procedure can be accomplished in a single step based on the co-precipitation of target fungicides and magnesium chloride in the presence of surfactant in a sodium hydroxide solution (pH 11) and a white precipitate gel was simply obtained after centrifugation. The property of precipitate phase was subsequently characterized using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray diffractometry. Under the optimum conditions, the developed method exhibited good sensitivity, with an enrichment factor of 11–18 and limits of detection of approximately 1–5 μg/L for water samples and 7–10 μg/L for apple juices. High reproducibility was achieved with a relative standard deviation of less than 11%, and a good recovery range of 72% to 120% was also obtained. The proposed method was shown to be a simple preconcentration procedure for concentrating fungicides in the samples investigated.

Abstract
Pesticide residue detection is one of the main safety issues in the utilization of medicinal plants. In this work, a highly selective and sensitive aptasensor for acetamiprid determination was designed. The mechanism of the proposed method is based on the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and rhodamine B (RB). Aptamers protect AuNPs from salt-induced aggregation, which causes fluorescence quenching of RB by the AuNPs via surface energy transfer. In the absence of acetamiprid, AuNPs were coated with aptamers on the surface and dispersed in NaCl solution. At this time, the dispersed AuNPs could perfectly quench the fluorescence intensity of RB. In contrast, in the presence of acetamiprid, aptamers specifically combine with acetamiprid to form a complex. With a high salt concentration, AuNPs would be aggregated without aptamer protection, weakening the RB quenching effect. Therefore, the concentration of acetamiprid could be obtained from the change in fluorescence intensity in the system. A fluorescent sensing method was established with a linear range from 0.1 to 3 μg mL-1, and the LOD was 0.0285 μg mL-1. The recoveries of acetamiprid in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) samples were 96.23-105.75%. This method has great application value for the detection of acetamiprid in a complex sample matrix.

Abstract
The indispensable usage of pesticides for the control and prevention of pests is probable and includes several types based on the problems in the crops. Among them, fungicides, are one problem-solving agent curing fungal developments. the disproportionate use of fungicides will lead to environmental deterioration and several health issues. The assessment of such fungicides is highly motivated to be detected. Under the class of two-dimensional materials, graphitic carbon nitride (GCN) with high surface area and high electrocatalytic activity was chosen as electrode material. The efficiency of GCN was improved with the subsequent substitution of selenium (Se) into the triazine ring as Se-GCN. The structural and surface analysis was done and the layered structure was proved. The electrochemical detection of CBM showed a lower detection limit at 6 nM with a linear range 0.099 μM-346.9 μM while, the absorption studies showed a LOD of 20 nM with a linear range of 0.099 μM-182.09 μM. The orange juice and vegetable extract samples had good recovery with CBM at Se-GCN modified disposable screen-printed electrode. The developed disposable electrode was more sensitive with 6.45 μAμM-1cm2 sensitivity and highly reactive with CBM. Moreover, the developed sensor will be more effective in sensing applications to avoid the menace generated by several agents.

Abstract
The issue of environmental pollutant residues has gained wide public attention all along. Therefore, it is necessary to develop simple, rapid, economical, portable, and sensitive detection techniques, which have become the focus of research in the pollutants detection field. Spectroscopy is one of the most convenient, simple, rapid, and intuitive analytical tools that can provide accurate information, such as ultraviolet spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, plasmon resonance spectroscopy, etc. Gold nanoparticles, silver nanoparticles, and their dimers with unique optical properties are commonly used in the construction of spectroscopic probes. As a class of oligonucleotides that can recognize specific target molecules, aptamers also have a strong ability to recognize small-molecule pollutants. The application of aptamer-binding metal nanoparticles in biosensing detection presents significant advantages for instance high sensitivity, good selectivity, and rapid analysis. And many spectroscopic probes constructed by aptamer-binding gold nanoparticles, silver nanoparticles, or their dimers have been successfully demonstrated for detecting pollutants. This review summarizes the progress, advantages, and disadvantages of aptamer sensing techniques constructed by visual colorimetric, fluorescence, Raman, and plasmon resonance spectroscopic probes combining gold/silver nanoparticles or their dimers in the field of pollutants detection, and discusses the prospects and challenges for their future.

Abstract
Extensively employed pesticide in agriculture causes residue in food products that would threaten public health safety. The surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) signal reliant on double sensing of carbendazim and thiabendazole in a single step is achieved without the aid of any bio-recognition element. A label-free anisotropic bimetallic hollow Au/Ag nanostars (HAu/Ag NS) SERS substrate was synthesized with numerous hot spots for Raman molecule through a galvanic displacement-free deposition. The individual and mixed analyte calibration results were compared based on the identified peak at 1224 (carbendazim) and 778 (thiabendazole) cm-1 and exhibited insignificant differences. The sensor could detect carbendazim and thiabendazole up to 4.28 × 10-4 and 6.04 × 10-4 µg·g-1 or µg·mL-1 in both individual and mixture of their extract. The recovery for accuracy and precision analysis was 91.54-98.26 % in rice and water. Finally, validation results were achieved satisfactorily (p > 0.05) with HPLC.

Abstract
Herein, we developed a novel truncation technique for aptamer sequences to fabricate highly sensitive aptasensors based on molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations. The binding mechanism and energy composition of the aptamer/sulfaquinoxaline (SQX) complexes were investigated. We successfully obtained a new SQX-specific aptamer (SBA28-1: CCCTAGGGG) with high affinity (Kd = 27.36 nM) and high specificity determined using graphene oxide. This aptamer has a unique stem-loop structure that can bind to SQX. Then, we fabricated a fluorescence aptasensor based on SBA28-1, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), and rhodamine B (RhoB) that presented a good linear range of 1.25–160 ng/mL and a limit of detection of 1.04 ng/mL. When used to analyze water samples, the aptasensor presented acceptable recovery rates of 93.1–100.1% and coefficients of variation (CVs) of 2.2–10.2%. In conclusion, the fluorescence aptasensor can accurately and sensitively detect SQX in water samples and has good application prospects.

Abstract
The rapid development of aptamers has helped address the challenges presented by the wide existed pesticides contaminations. Screening of aptamers with excellent performance is a prerequisite for successfully constructing biosensors, while further tailoring of aptamers with enhanced activity greatly improved the assay performance. Firstly, this paper reviewed the advanced screening strategies for pesticides aptamers, including immobilization screening that preserves the native structures of targets, non-immobilized screening based on nanomaterials, capillary electrophoresis-systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (CE-SELEX), virtual screening in silico, high-throughput selection, and rational secondary library generation methods, which contributed significantly to improve the success rate of screening, reduce the screening time, and ensure aptamer binding affinity. Secondly, the precise tailoring strategies for pesticides aptamers were modularly elaborated, containing deletion, splitting, elongation, and fusion, which provided various advantages like cost-efficiency, enhanced binding affinity, and new derived functional motifs. Thirdly, the developed aptamer-based biosensors (aptasensors) for pesticide detection were systematically reviewed according to the different signal output modes. Finally, the challenges and future perspectives of pesticide detection are discussed comprehensively.

Abstract
Silicon nanowires (SiNWs) prepared by metal-assisted chemical etching of crystalline silicon wafers followed by deposition of plasmonic gold (Au) nanoparticles (NPs) were explored as templates for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) from probe molecules of Methylene blue and Rhodamine B. The filling factor by pores (porosity) of SiNW arrays was found to control the SERS efficiency, and the maximal enhancement was observed for the samples with porosity of 55%, which corresponded to dense arrays of SiNWs. The obtained results are discussed in terms of the electromagnetic enhancement of SERS related to the localized surface plasmon resonances in Au-NPs on SiNW's surfaces accompanied with light scattering in the SiNW arrays. The observed SERS effect combined with the high stability of Au-NPs, scalability, and relatively simple preparation method are promising for the application of SiNW:Au-NP hybrid nanostructures as templates in molecular sensorics.

Abstract
Carbendazim (CBZ), a systemic, broad-spectrum benzimidazole fungicide, is widely used to control fungal diseases in agricultural products. Its residues might pose risks to human health and the environment. Therefore, it is warranted to establish a rapid and reliable method for its residual quantification. Herein, we proposed a competitive assay that combined aptamer (DNA) specific recognition and bimetallic nanozyme gold@platinum (Au@Pt) catalysis to trace the CBZ residue. The DNA was labeled onto bimetallic nanozyme Au@Pt surface to produce Au@Pt probes (Au@Pt-DNA). The magnetic Fe3O4 was functionalized with a complementary strand of DNA (C-DNA) to form Fe3O4 probes (Fe3O4-C-DNA). Subsequently, the CBZ and the Fe3O4 probes competitively react with Au@Pt probes to form two Au@Pt-DNA biosensors (Au@Pt-ssDNA-CBZ and Au@Pt-dsDNA-Fe3O4). The Au@Pt-ssDNA-CBZ biosensor was designed for qualitative analysis through a naked-eye visualization strategy in the presence of CBZ. Meanwhile, Au@Pt-dsDNA-Fe3O4 biosensor was developed to quantitatively analyze CBZ using a multifunctional microplate reader. A competitive assay based on the dual-mode Au@Pt-DNA biosensors was established for onsite sensitive determination of CBZ. The limit of detection (LOD) and recoveries of the developed assay were 0.038 ng/mg and 71.88-110.11%, with relative standard deviations (RSDs) ranging between 3.15 and 10.91%. The assay demonstrated a good correlation with data acquired from liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry analysis. In summary, the proposed competitive assay based on dual-mode Au@Pt-DNA biosensors might have a great potential for onsite sensitive detection of pesticides in agro-products.

Abstract
A selective electrochemical biosensor was developed for detecting carbendazim (CBZ) based on well-dispersed colloidal boron nitride (BN) nanocrystals and gold nanoparticles (Au NPs). BN was synthesized by "solvent cutting" to modify a glassy carbon electrode (GCE), and Au NPs were then electrodeposited. A single-stranded oligonucleotide with methylene blue (MB) was modified to the electrode surface through gold-sulfur bonds. A double-stranded DNA was formed in the presence of an aptamer. The aptamer chain can specifically bind to the target CBZ. When the aptamer binds to CBZ, the electroactive substance MB labeled at one end of the complementary chain can effectively contact the electrode surface. Detection of CBZ is realized by simultaneously monitoring the MB signal enhancement. The CBZ concentration was determined in a wide linearity range from 0.1 ng mL-1 to 100 μg mL-1, with a low detection limit of 0.019 ng mL-1. This biosensor exhibited excellent selectivity and acceptable repeatability and was applied in cucumber, kiwifruit, and water samples with good recoveries, demonstrating that the strategy has remarkable potential and offers a good platform for CBZ detection.

Abstract
The abuse of pesticides in agricultural land during pre- and post-harvest causes an increase of residue in agricultural products and pollution in the environment, which ultimately affects human health. Hence, it is crucially important to develop an effective detection method to quantify the trace amount of residue in food and water. However, with the rapid development of nanotechnology and considering the exclusive properties of nanomaterials, optical, and their integrated system have gained exclusive interest for accurately sensing of pesticides in food and agricultural samples to ensure food safety thanks to their unique benefit of high sensitivity, low detection limit, good selectivity and so on and making them a trending hotspot. This review focuses on recent progress in the past five years on nanomaterial-based optical, such as colorimetric, fluorescence, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and their integrated system for the monitoring of benzimidazole fungicide (including, carbendazim, thiabendazole, and thiophanate-methyl) residue in food and water samples. This review firstly provides a brief introduction to mentioned techniques, detection mechanism, applied nanomaterials, label-free detection, target-specific detection, etc. then their specific application. Finally, challenges and perspectives in the respective field are discussed.

Electrochemical detection of carbendazim with mulberry fruit-like gold nanocrystal/multiple graphene aerogel and DNA cycle amplification. Mikrochim Acta 2021; 188:284.

Abstract
An aptasensor for electrochemical detection of carbendazim is reported with mulberry fruit-like gold nanocrystal (MF-Au)/multiple graphene aerogel (MGA) and DNA cycle amplification. HAuCl4 was reduced by ascorbic acid in a CTAC solution containing KBr and KI and formed trioctahedron gold nanocrystal. The gold nanocrystal underwent structural evolution under enantioselective direction of l-cysteine. The resulting MF-Au shows a mulberry fruit-like nanostructure composed of gold nanocrystals of about 200 nm as the core and many irregular gold nanoparticles of about 30 nm as the shell. The exposure of high-index facets improves the catalytic activity of MF-Au. MF-Au/MGA was used for the construction of an aptasensor for electrochemical detection of carbendazim. The aptamer hybridizes with assistant strand DNA to form duplex DNA. Carbendazim binds with the formed duplex DNA to release assistant strand DNA, triggering one three-cascade DNA cycle. The utilization of a DNA cycle allows one carbendazim molecule to bring many methylene blue–labeled DNA fragments to the electrode surface. This promotes significant signal amplification due to the redox reaction of methylene blue. The detection signal is further enhanced by the catalysis of MF-Au and MGA towards the redox of methylene blue. A differential pulse voltammetric signal, best measured at − 0.32 V vs. Ag/AgCl, increases linearly with the carbendazim concentration ranging from 1.0 × 10−16 to 1.0 × 10−11 M with a detection limit of 4.4 × 10−17 M. The method provides ultrahigh sensitivity and selectivity and was successfully applied to the electrochemical detection of carbendazim in cucumber.

Colloidal gold-based lateral flow immunoassay with inline cleanup for rapid on-site screening of carbendazim in functional foods. Anal Bioanal Chem 2021; 413:3725-3735.

Abstract
In this study, for the first time, we propose a sensitive colloidal gold-based lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) that can be used to detect carbendazim residues in functional foods. The adoption of inline cleanup LFIA strips effectively improved background interference to reduce misjudgment of results. First, the hapten 2-(methylamino)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-5-carboxylic acid was used to establish the carbendazim immunoassay method. Subsequently, colloidal gold-mAb preparation and LFIA detection conditions were systematically optimized. For root and fruit samples (ginseng, ginger, jujube, and Chinese wolfberry), the designed strips had a cutoff value of 8 ng/mL. For flower and seed samples (chrysanthemum, coix seed, and malt), the cutoff value was 12 ng/mL. Even in a complex matrix, the established LFIA method demonstrates satisfactory sensitivity and anti-interference ability. This method was successfully applied in detection of carbendazim residues in complex functional foods, and the assay results are consistent with those obtained via liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. In short, the proposed method is fast and sensitive and has strong anti-interference ability. Furthermore, it provides a new technical method highly relevant to the on-site rapid detection of carbendazim residues in complex sample matrix.

Abstract
Purpose Sulfamethazine (SMZ) exposed in the environment can enter the human body through the food chain and pose a serious threat to human health. Therefore, it is important to develop a rapid and sensitive method for detecting SMZ in environmental samples. In order to fastly and quantitatively detect SMZ in environmental samples, we developed a label-free fluorescent aptasensor based on specific aptamer (SMZ1S) and fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and rhodamine B (RhoB). Methods In the absence of SMZ, SMZ1S was adsorbed on the surface of AuNPs, which led to dispersion of the AuNPs in high concentration saline solution, thus effectively quenching the fluorescence of RhoB. With the increase of the SMZ concentration, the specific binding of SMZ1S and SMZ led to the aggregation of AuNPs in the presence of NaCl, which reduced the quenching of RhoB fluorescence and increased the fluorescence intensity. The sensitivity and linearity curve of the label-free fluorescent aptasensor were determined with different concentrations of sulfamethazine standard solutions. The specificity of this fluorescent aptasensor was determined by replacing sulfamethazine with different antibiotics. In addition, the actual water and soil samples were spiked and recovered. Results Under optimized conditions, the proposed fluorescent aptasensor demonstrated a good linear detection of SMZ in binding buffer from 1.25 ng mL-1 to 40 ng mL-1 and the limit of detection was 0.82 ng mL-1. The spiked recoveries for SMZ were 94.4% to 108.8% with a relative standard deviation of 1.8-10.3% in water and soil samples, respectively. Conclusion The label-free fluorescent aptasensor investigated in the current study is a promising tool to detect and quantify SMZ in water and soil samples.

Abstract
Carbendazim (CBZ) pesticide residues in food products have become a growing concern in recent years. Herein, a sensitive biosensor for detecting CBZ was developed based on luminescent resonance energy transfer (LRET) from aptamer labeled upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs, donor) to manganese dioxide (MnO2, acceptor) nanosheets. The strong overlap between the absorption spectrum of MnO2 and the UCNPs fluorescence emission allowed the luminescence quenching. With the addition of CBZ, it tended to bind with specific aptamers, which culminated in the UCNPs-aptamer dropping off MnO2 nanosheets and restoring the fluorescence. A linear calibration plot between logarithmic CBZ concentration and fluorescence intensity was acquired in the range of 0.1-5000 ng·mL-1, with a limit of detection 0.05 ng·mL-1, indicating that the UCNPs- MnO2 aptasensor is a rapid, sensitive and specific quantitative detection platform for CBZ. Furthermore, the precision and accuracy of the developed LRET biosensor was validated by HPLC method with no significant differences.

Abstract
Heavy metal ions and pesticides are extremely dangerous for human health and environment and an accurate detection is an essential step to monitor their levels in water. The standard and most used methods for detecting these pollutants are sophisticated and expensive analytical techniques. However, recent technological advancements have allowed the development of alternative techniques based on optical properties of noble metal nanomaterials, which provide many advantages such as ultrasensitive detection, fast turnover, simple protocols, in situ sampling, on-site capability and reduced cost. This paper provides a review of the most common photo-physical effects impact on the fluorescence of metal nanomaterials and how these processes can be exploited for the detection of pollutant species. The final aim is to provide readers with an updated guide on fluorescent metallic nano-systems used as optical sensors of heavy metal ions and pesticides in water.

Abstract
Contamination by pesticides in the food chain and the environment is a worldwide problem that needs to be actively monitored to ensure safety. Unfortunately, standard pesticide analysis based on mass spectrometry takes a lot of time, money and effort. Thus, simple, reliable, cost-effective and field applicable methods for pesticide detection have been actively developed. One of the most promising technologies is an aptamer-based biosensor or so-called aptasensor. It utilizes aptamers, short single-stranded DNAs or RNAs, as pesticide recognition elements to integrate with various innovative biosensing technologies for specific and sensitive detection of pesticide residues. Several platforms for aptasensors have been dynamically established, such as colorimetry, fluorometry, electrochemistry, electrochemiluminescence (ECL) and so forth. Each platform has both advantages and disadvantages depending on the purpose of use and readiness of technology. For example, colorimetric-based aptasensors are more affordable than others because of the simplicity of fabrication and resource requirements. Electrochemical-based aptasensors have mainly shown better sensitivity than others with exceedingly low detection limits. This paper critically reviews the progression of pesticide aptasensors throughout the development process, including the selection, characterization and modification of aptamers, the conceptual frameworks of integrating aptamers and biosensors, the ASSURED (affordable, sensitive, specific, user-friendly, rapid and robust, equipment-free and deliverable to end users) criteria of different platforms and the future outlook.

Abstract
In this study, a nanocomposite was synthesized via the formation of silver nanoparticles on fumed silica (FS@Ag) to prepare an electrochemical sensor for the determination of carbendazim (CBZ), a common pesticide. The electrochemical sensor was designed by the combination of the carbon paste electrode (CPE) with the FS@Ag nanocomposite. Based on the electrochemical sensor prepared here, a voltammetric method was developed for the determination of CBZ in water and food samples. Characterization of the nanocomposite was conducted by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray analyses. Modified electrodes were also electrochemically characterized via cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy analyses. The FS@Ag showed electrocatalytic activity on the electrochemical oxidation of CBZ via increasing the peak currents tremendously. With the proposed method, a very low limit of detection (9.4 × 10-10 M) and a wide linear range (5.0 × 10-8 M - 3.0 × 10-6 M) were obtained for CBZ. The slope of the calibration line obtained with CPE/15FS@Ag was 194-times higher than that of bare CPE, indicating the high sensitivity of the electrochemical sensor. The performance of the electrochemical sensor has been investigated in real samples such as river water, tomato juice, orange juice, and apple juice samples. The results reveal that the electrochemical sensor prepared here can be used as an alternative to current analytical methods used for the quantification of CBZ.
