[PMID: 38678928 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126155] [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: 08/12/2023] [Revised: 04/21/2024] [Accepted: 04/24/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024]
Abstract
Developing portable and sensitive biosensors for bacteria detection is highly demanded due to their association with environmental and food safety. Paper-based microfluidic chip is the suitable candidate for constructing pump-free biosensor since paper is hydrophilic, low-cost and easy to use. However, the contradiction between sensitivity and small sample volume seriously affects the application of paper-based chip for bacteria detection. Here, a new microfluidic biosensor, combining large PDMS reservoir for sample storage, hydrophilic paper substrate for pump-free water transport, coated microspheres for bacteria capture and super absorbent resin for water absorption, is designed for the detection of bacteria in aqueous samples. Once the sample solution is introduced in the reservoir, water will automatically flow through the gaps between microspheres and the target bacteria will be captured by the aptamer coated on the surface. To facilitate PDMS reservoir bonding and ensure water transport, the upper side of paper substrate is coated with Polyethylenimine modified PDMS and the bottom side is kept unchanged. After all the solution is filtrated, fluorescent dye strained bacteria are enriched on the microspheres. The fluorescent intensity representing the number of bacteria captured is then measured using a portable instrument. Through the designed microfluidic biosensor, the bacteria detection can be achieved with 2 mL sample solution in less than 15 min for water or 20 min for diluted milk. A linear range from 10 CFU/mL to 1000 CFU/mL is obtained. The paper-based 3D biosensor has the merits of low-cost, simple operation, pump-free and high sensitivity and it can be applied to the simultaneous detection of multiple bacteria via integrating different aptamers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The identification and quantification of viable Escherichia coli (E. coli) are important in multiple fields including the development of antimicrobial materials, water quality, food safety and infections diagnosis. However, the standard culture-based methods of viable E. coli detection suffer from long detection times (24 h) and complex operation, leaving the unmet requirement for fast assessing the efficiency of antimicrobial materials, early alerting the contamination of water and food, and immediately treatment of infections. RESULTS We present a digital β-d-glucuronidase (GUS) assay in a self-priming polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microfluidic chip for rapid E. coli identification and quantification. The GUS expression in viable bacteria was investigated to develop a fast GUS assay at the single-cell level. Single E. coli were stochastically discretized in picoliter chambers and identified by specific GUS activity. The digital GUS assay enabled identifying E. coli within 3 h and quantifying within 4 h for different E. coli subtypes. The specificity of our method was confirmed by using blended bacteria including E. coli, Bacillus, Shigella and Vibrio. We utilized digital GUS assay to enumerate viable E. coli after incubated with antibacterial materials for assessing the antibacterial efficiency. Moreover, the degassed chip can realize automatic sample distribution without external instruments. SIGNIFICANCE The results demonstrated the functionality and practicability of digital GUS assay for single E. coli identification and quantification. With air-tight packaging, the developed chip has the potential for on-site E. coli analysis and could be deployed for diagnosis of E. coli infections, antimicrobial susceptibility testing, and warning the fecal pollution of water. Digital GUS assay provides a paradigm, examining the activity of metabolic enzyme, for detecting the viable bacteria other than E. coli.

Abstract
Pathogen testing is effective to prevent food poisoning. Here, an electrochemical biosensor was explored for Salmonella detection by combining magnetic grid based bacterial separation with enzymatic catalysis based signal amplification on a PCB interdigitated electrode in a microfluidic chip. First, immune magnetic nanobeads, target bacteria, and immune polystyrene microspheres decorated with glucose oxidase were sufficiently mixed to form nanobead-bacteria-microsphere sandwich conjugates. Then, these conjugates were injected into the chip to form conjugate chains right over the electrode under an iron grid enhanced magnetic field. After non-conductive glucose was injected and catalyzed by glucose oxidase on the conjugate chains, conductive glucose acid and non-conductive hydrogen peroxide were continuously produced and rapidly diffused from the conjugate chains to the electrode. Finally, the impedance change was real-timely monitored and used to determine the bacterial amount. This sensor enabled detection of 50 CFU/mL Salmonella typhimurium in 1 h.

Discriminating macromolecular interactions based on an impedimetric fingerprint supported by multivariate data analysis for rapid and label-free Escherichia coli recognition in human urine. Biosens Bioelectron 2023; 238:115561. [PMID: 37549553 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115561] [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: 05/12/2023] [Revised: 07/29/2023] [Accepted: 07/31/2023] [Indexed: 08/09/2023]
Abstract
This manuscript presents a novel approach to address the challenges of electrode fouling and highly complex electrode nanoarchitecture, which are primary concerns for biosensors operating in real environments. The proposed approach utilizes multiparametric impedance discriminant analysis (MIDA) to obtain a fingerprint of the macromolecular interactions on flat glassy carbon surfaces, achieved through self-organized, drop-cast, receptor-functionalized Au nanocube (AuNC) patterns. Real-time monitoring is combined with singular value decomposition and partial least squares discriminant analysis, which enables selective identification of the analyte from raw impedance data, without the use of electric equivalent circuits. As a proof-of-concept, the authors demonstrate the ability to detect Escherichia coli in real human urine using an aptamer-based biosensor that targets RNA polymerase. This is significant, as uropathogenic E. coli is a difficult-to-treat pathogen that is responsible for the majority of hospital-acquired urinary tract infection cases. The proposed approach offers a limit of detection of 11.3 CFU/mL for the uropathogenic E. coli strain No. 57, an analytical range in all studied concentrations (up to 105 CFU/mL), without the use of antifouling strategies, yet not being specific vs other E.coli strain studied (BL21(DE3)). The MIDA approach allowed to identify negative overpotentials (-0.35 to -0.10 V vs Ag/AgCl) as most suitable for the analysis, offering over 80% sensitivity and accuracy, and the measurement was carried out in just 2 min. Moreover, this approach is scalable and can be applied to other biosensor platforms.

Abstract
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) are one of the major global issues needing attention. Among them, carbapenemase-producing (CP) E. coli strains are commonly found in clinical and biological samples. Rapid and cost-effective detection of such strains is critical in minimizing their deleterious impact. While promising progress is being made in rapid detection platforms, separation and enrichment of bacteria are required to ensure the detection of low bacterial counts. The current separation methods, such as centrifugation, filtration, electrophoresis, and immunomagnetic separation, are often tedious, expensive, or ineffective for clinical and biological samples. Further, the extraction and concentration of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria (ARB) are not well documented. Thus, this study assessed the applicability of cost-effective glycan-coated magnetic nanoparticles (gMNPs) for simple and rapid extraction of CP E. coli. The study included two resistant (R)strains: Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing E. coli (R: KPC) and New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM)-producing E. coli (R: NDM). A susceptible E. coli (S) strain was used as a control, a reference bacterium. The gMNPs successfully extracted and concentrated E. coli (R) and E. coli (S) at low concentrations from large volumes of buffer solution, water, and food samples. The gMNPs concentrated up to two and five times their initial concentration for E. coli (R) and E. coli (S) in the buffer solution, respectively. In water and food samples, the concentration of E. coli (S) and E. coli (R) were similar and ranged 1-3 times their initial inoculation. A variation in the concentration from different food samples was seen, displaying the impact of food microstructure and natural microflora. The cost-effective and rapid bacterial cell capture by gMNPs was achieved in 15 min, and its successful binding to the bacterial cells in the buffer solution and food matrices was also confirmed using Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). These results show promising applications of gMNPs to extract pathogens and ARB from biological samples.

Abstract
Foodborne diseases have arisen due to the globalization of industry and the increase in urban population, which has led to increased demand for food and has ultimately endangered the quality of food. Foodborne diseases have caused some of the most common public health problems and led to significant social and economic issues worldwide. Food quality and safety are affected by microbial contaminants, growth-promoting feed additives (β-agonists and antibiotics), food allergens, and toxins in different stages from harvesting to storage and marketing of products. Electrochemical biosensors, due to their reduced size and portability, low cost, and low consumption of reagents and samples, can quickly provide valuable quantitative and qualitative information about food contamination. In this regard, using nanomaterials can increase the sensitivity of the assessment. Magnetic nanoparticle (MNP)-based biosensors, especially, are receiving significant attention due to their low-cost production, physicochemical stability, biocompatibility, and eco-friendly catalytic characteristics, along with magnetic, biological, chemical and electronic sensing features. Here, we provide a review on the application of iron-based magnetic nanoparticles in the electrochemical sensing of food contamination. The types of nanomaterials used in order to improve the methods and increase the sensitivity of the methods have been discussed. Then, we stated the advantages and limitations of each method and tried to state the research gaps for each platform/method. Finally, the role of microfluidic and smartphone-based methods in the rapid detection of food contamination is stated. Then, various techniques like label-free and labelled regimes for the sensitive monitoring of food contamination were surveyed. Next, the critical role of antibody, aptamer, peptide, enzyme, DNA, cells and so on for the construction of specific bioreceptors for individual and simultaneous recognition by electrochemical methods for food contamination were discussed. Finally, integration of novel technologies such as microfluidic and smartphones for the identification of food contaminations were investigated. It is important to point out that, in the last part of each sub-section, attained results of different reports for each strategy were compared and advantages/limitations were mentioned.

Abstract
Day-old male chick culling is one of the world's most inhumane problems in the poultry industry. Every year, seven billion male chicks are slaughtered in laying-hen hatcheries due to their higher feed exchange rate, lower management than female chicks, and higher production costs. This study describes a novel non-invasive method for determining the gender of chicken eggs. During the incubation period of fourteen days, four electrodes were attached to each egg for data collection. On the last day of incubation, a standard polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based chicken gender determination protocol was applied to the eggs to obtain the gender information. A relationship was built between the collected data and the egg's gender, and it was discovered to have a reliable connection, indicating that the chicken egg gender can be determined by measuring the impedance data of the eggs on day 9 of incubation with the four electrodes set and using the self-normalization technique. This is a groundbreaking discovery, demonstrating that impedance spectroscopy can be used to sex chicken eggs before they hatch, relieving the poultry industry of such an ethical burden.

Abstract
Rapid and specific detection of pathogenic bacteria in fecal samples is of critical importance for the diagnosis of neonatal diarrhea in veterinary clinics. Nanobodies are a promising tool for the treatment and diagnosis of infectious diseases due to their unique recognition properties. In this study, we report the design of a nanobody-based magnetofluorescent immunoassay for the sensitive detection of pathogenic Escherichia coli F17-positive strains (E. coli F17). For this, a camel was immunized with purified F17A protein from F17 fimbriae and a nanobody library was constructed by phage display. Two specific anti-F17A nanobodies (Nbs) were selected to design the bioassay. The first one (Nb1) was conjugated to magnetic beads (MBs) to form a complex capable of efficiently capturing the target bacteria. A second horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated nanobody (Nb4) was used for detection by oxidizing o-phenylenediamine (OPD) to fluorescent 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP). Our results show that the immunoassay recognizes E. coli F17 with high specificity and sensitivity, with a detection limit of 1.8 CFU/mL in only 90 min. Furthermore, we showed that the immunoassay can be applied to fecal samples without pretreatment and remains stable for at least one month when stored at 4 °C.

Abstract
Foodborne pathogens are an important diagnostic target for the food, beverage, and health care industries due to their prevalence and the adverse effects they can cause to public health, food safety, and the economy. The standards that determine whether a given type of food is fit for consumption are set by governments and must be taken into account when designing a new diagnostic tool such as a biosensor platform. In order to meet these stringent detection limits, cost, and reliability standards, recent research has been focused on developing lab-on-a-chip-based approaches for detection devices that use microfluidic channels and platforms. The microfluidics-based devices are designed, developed, and used in different ways to achieve the established common standards for food pathogen testing that enable high throughput, rapid detection, low sample volume, and minimal pretreatment procedures. Combining microfluidic approaches with electrochemical biosensing could offer affordable, portable, and easy to use devices for food pathogen diagnostics. This review presents an analysis of the established common standards and the recent progress made in electrochemical sensors toward the development of future lab-on-a-chip devices that will aid 'collection-to-detection' using a single method and platform.

Abstract
Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) has been combined so far with other photodetecting semiconductors as an enhancing agent owing to its optical and electronic properties. Existing approaches demonstrated MoS2-incorporated photodetector devices using complex and costly fabrication processes. Here, we report on simplified one-step on the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) based synthesis of a unique microfiber/microflower MoS2-based heterostructure formed by capturing MoO2 intermediate material during the CVD process. This particular morphology engenders a material chemical and electronic interplay exalting the heterostructure absorption up to ~ 98% over a large spectral range between 200 and 1500 nm. An arsenal of characterization methods were used to elucidate the properties of these novel heterostructures including Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectrometry, high-resolution transmission and scanning electron microscopies, and Kelvin probe force microscopy. Our findings revealed that the MoS2 and the MoO2 crystallize in the hexagonal and monoclinic lattices, respectively. The integration of the MoS2/MoO2 heterostructures into functional photodetectors revealed a strong photoresponse under both standard sun illumination AM1.5G and blue light excitation at 450 nm. Responsivity and detectivity values as high as 0.75 mA W-1 and 1.45 × 107 Jones, respectively, were obtained with the lowest light intensity of 20 mW cm-2 at only 1 V bias. These results demonstrate the high performances achieved by the unique MoS2/MoO2 heterostructure for broadband light harvesting and pave the way for their adoption in photodetection applications.

Abstract
The label-free biosensor has emerged as an effective tool for the purpose of early detection of causative pathogens such as Escherichia coli as a preventive measure. In this study, a biorecognition-element-free interdigitated microelectrode (IDμE) sensor is designed and developed with this in mind, with good reliability and affordability. Results show that the designed sensor can identify E. coli with good selectivity using an impedance and capacitance of 7.69 MHz. At its optimum impedance of 1.3 kHz, the IDμE sensor can reliably quantify E. coli in a range of measurement (103.2~106 cfu/mL), linearity (R2 = 0.97), sensitivity (18.15 kΩ/log (cfu/mL)), and limit of detection (103.2 cfu/mL). In summary, the IDμE sensor developed possesses high potential for industrial and clinical applications.

Abstract
Bacterial contamination is an important factor causing food security issues. Among the bacteria, Escherichia coli is one of the main pathogens of food-borne microorganisms. However, traditional bacterial detection approaches cannot meet the requirements of real-time and on-site detection. Thus, it is of great significance to develop a rapid and accurate detection of bacteria in food to ensure food safety and safeguard human health. The pathogen heat-treatment module was designed in this paper based on the techniques including nanoprobe, pathogen heat-treatment, graphene transparent electrode (GTE), and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) bioluminescence technology. The system mainly consists of two parts: one is the optical detection unit; the other is the data processing unit. And it can quickly and automatically detect the number of bacterial colonies in food such as milk etc. The system uses not only the probe to capture and enrich E. coli by antigen-antibody interaction but also the heat treatment to increase the amount of ATP released from bacterial cells within five minutes. To enhance the detecting accuracy and sensitivity, the electric field generated by GTE is adopted in the system to enrich ATP. Compared to the other conventional methods, the linear correlation coefficient of the system can be reached 0.975, and the system meets the design requirements. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the detection can be completed within 25 min, and the detectable concentration of bacteria is in the range of 3.1 × 101–106 CFU/mL. This system satisfies the demands of a fast and on-site inspection.

Mikrochim Acta 2022; 189:273. [PMID: 35792975 PMCID: PMC9259531 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-022-05368-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2022] [Accepted: 06/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
An integrated custom cross-response sensing array has been developed combining the algorithm module’s visible machine learning approach for rapid and accurate pathogenic microbial taxonomic identification. The diversified cross-response sensing array consists of two-dimensional nanomaterial (2D-n) with fluorescently labeled single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) as sensing elements to extract a set of differential response profiles for each pathogenic microorganism. By altering the 2D-n and different ssDNA with different sequences, we can form multiple sensing elements. While interacting with microorganisms, the competition between ssDNA and 2D-n leads to the release of ssDNA from 2D-n. The signals are generated from binding force driven by the exfoliation of either ssDNA or 2D-n from the microorganisms. Thus, the signal is distinguished from different ssDNA and 2D-n combinations, differentiating the extracted information and visualizing the recognition process. Fluorescent signals collected from each sensing element at the wavelength around 520 nm are applied to generate a fingerprint. As a proof of concept, we demonstrate that a six-sensing array enables rapid and accurate pathogenic microbial taxonomic identification, including the drug-resistant microorganisms, under a data size of n = 288. We precisely identify microbial with an overall accuracy of 97.9%, which overcomes the big data dependence for identifying recurrent patterns in conventional methods. For each microorganism, the detection concentration is 105 ~ 108 CFU/mL for Escherichia coli, 102 ~ 107 CFU/mL for E. coli-β, 103 ~ 108 CFU/mL for Staphylococcus aureus, 103 ~ 107 CFU/mL for MRSA, 102 ~ 108 CFU/mL for Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 103 ~ 108 CFU/mL for Enterococcus faecalis, 102 ~ 108 CFU/mL for Klebsiella pneumoniae, and 103 ~ 108 CFU/mL for Candida albicans. Combining the visible machine learning approach, this sensing array provides strategies for precision pathogenic microbial taxonomic identification.

Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of a novel titania/silica hybrid xerogel subsequently modified with 4-methylpyridine (4-Pic), named TiSi4Pic+Cl- is reported. The physicochemical, structural and thermal properties of TiSi4Pic+Cl- were characterized using several techniques. Anchoring cobalt(II) phthalocyanine (CoTsPc) in TiSi4Pic+Cl- showed greater electroanalytical sensitivity over other sensors built with these materials. A novel electroanalytical method was developed to quantify the noxious biocide pentachlorophenol (PCP) for environmental monitoring. The peak current intensity increased linearly with the analyte concentration in the range between 0.99 and 4.21 μmol L-1, based on the oxidation process (at + 0.81 V, vs. Ag/AgCl) of differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The estimated limit of detection (LOD) was 29 nmol L-1. Recovery tests in environmental samples showed a PCP concentration of 2.05 ± 0.03 μmol L-1 (n = 3). The method was statistically validated by comparing the PCP concentrations with those obtained by molecular absorption spectrometry and high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detection (HPLC-DAD). At a 95% confidence level, no difference between the results was found, therefore confirming the excellent accuracy of the proposed method.

Abstract
We developed an effective and specific colorimetric strategy to detect Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium) based on hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB)-induced supramolecular assembly of β-cyclodextrin-capped gold nanoparticles (β-CD-AuNPs). In this study, ssDNA aptamer of S. typhimurium could combine with CTAB to form the supramolecular ssDNA-CTAB composite, so the ssDNA aptamer was applied to control the concentration of CTAB. In the presence of S. typhimurium, ssDNA aptamers selectively bound to S. typhimurium but not to CTAB, leading to the host-guest chemistry reaction of CTAB and β-CD resulting in β-CD-AuNP supramolecular assembly aggregation with an obvious color change. The ratio of absorption at 650 and 520 nm (A650nm/A520nm) has a linear correlation to the log scale of the concentration of the bacteria (1 × 102-1 × 107 CFU/mL) with a low limit of detection (LOD) of 13 CFU/mL. In addition, this optical sensor has good selectivity and practicability. In milk samples, the recovery was 93.55-111.32%, which suggested its potential application in real samples.

Abstract
Salmonellosis caused by Salmonella sp. has long been reported all over the world. Despite the availability of various diagnostic methods, easy and effective detection systems are still required. This report describes a dialysis membrane electrode interface disc with immobilized specific antibodies to capture antigenic Salmonella cells. The interaction of a specific Salmonella antigen with a mouse anti-Salmonella monoclonal antibody complexed to rabbit anti-mouse secondary antibody conjugated with HRP and the substrate o-aminophenol resulted in a response signal output current measured using two electrode systems (cadmium reference electrode and glassy carbon working electrode) and an agilent HP34401A 6.5 digital multimeter without a potentiostat or applied potential input. A maximum response signal output current was recorded for various concentrations of Salmonella viz., 3, 30, 300, 3000, 30,000 and 300,000 cells. The biosensor has a detection limit of three cells, which is very sensitive when compared with other detection sensors. Little non-specific response was observed using Streptococcus, Vibrio, and Pseudomonas sp. The maximum response signal output current for a dialysis membrane electrode interface disc was greater than that for gelatin, collagen, and agarose. The device and technique have a range of biological applications. This novel detection system has great potential for future development and application in surveillance for microbial pathogens.

Abstract
Detection of cellular metabolites that are disease biomarkers is important for human healthcare monitoring and assessing prognosis and therapeutic response. Accurate and rapid detection of microbial metabolites and pathway intermediates is also crucial for the process optimization required for development of bioconversion methods using metabolically engineered cells. Various redox enzymes can generate electrons that can be employed in enzyme-based biosensors and in the detection of cellular metabolites. These reactions can directly transform target compounds into various readout signals. By incorporating engineered enzymes into enzymatic cascades, the readout signals can be improved in terms of accuracy and sensitivity. This review critically discusses selected redox enzymatic and chemoenzymatic cascades currently employed for detection of human- and microbe-related cellular metabolites including, amino acids, d-glucose, inorganic ions (pyrophosphate, phosphate, and sulfate), nitro- and halogenated phenols, NAD(P)H, fatty acids, fatty aldehyde, alkane, short chain acids, and cellular metabolites.

New analytical methods using carbon-based nanomaterials for detection of Salmonella species as a major food poisoning organism in water and soil resources. CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 287:132243.

Abstract
Salmonella is one of the most prevalent causing agents of food- and water-borne illnesses, posing an ongoing public health threat. These food-poisoning bacteria contaminate the resources at different stages such as production, aggregation, processing, distribution, as well as marketing. According to the high incidence of salmonellosis, effective strategies for early-stage detection are required at the highest priority. Since traditional culture-dependent methods and polymerase chain reaction are labor-intensive and time-taking, identification of early and accurate detection of Salmonella in food and water samples can prevent significant health economic burden and lessen the costs. The immense potentiality of biosensors in diagnosis, such as simplicity in operation, the ability of multiplex analysis, high sensitivity, and specificity, have driven research in the evolution of nanotechnology, innovating newer biosensors. Carbon nanomaterials enhance the detection sensitivity of biosensors while obtaining low levels of detection limits due to their possibility to immobilize huge amounts of bioreceptor units at insignificant volume. Moreover, conjugation and functionalization of carbon nanomaterials with metallic nanoparticles or organic molecules enables surface functional groups. According to these remarkable properties, carbon nanomaterials are widely exploited in the development of novel biosensors. To be specific, carbon nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes, graphene and fullerenes function as transducers in the analyte recognition process or surface immobilizers for biomolecules. Herein the potential application of carbon nanomaterials in the development of novel Salmonella biosensors platforms is reviewed comprehensively. In addition, the current problems and critical analyses of the future perspectives of Salmonella biosensors are discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) of body fluids is considered a quick, simple and easy to use method for the diagnosis of disease. OBJECTIVES To evaluate rapid, reliable, and non-destructive SERS-based diagnostic tool with multivariate data analysis including principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least square discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) for classification of different stages of typhoid on the basis of characteristic SERS spectral features. METHODS SERS has been used for analysis of serum samples of different stages of typhoid including early acute stage and late acute stage in comparison with healthy samples, in order to investigate capability of this technique for diagnosis of typhoid. SERS spectral features associated with the biochemical changes taking place during the development of the typhoid fever were analyzed and identified. RESULTS The value of area under the receiver operating characteristics (AUROC) for early acute stage versus healthy is 0.87 and that for healthy versus late acute stage is 0.52. PLS-DA classifier model gives values of 100 % for accuracy, sensitivity and specificity, respectively for the SERS spectral data sets of healthy versus early acute stage. Moreover, this classifier model gives values of 91 %, 89 % and 97 % for accuracy, sensitivity and specificity, respectively for the SERS spectral data sets of healthy versus late acute stage. CONCLUSIONS Based on preliminary work it is concluded that SERS has potential to diagnose various stages of typhoid fever including early acute and late acute stage in comparison with healthy samples.

Improving the detection limit of Salmonella colorimetry using long ssDNA of asymmetric-PCR and non-functionalized AuNPs. Anal Biochem 2021; 626:114229.

Abstract
A colorimetric sensor based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) is a simple and rapid method for detecting foodborne pathogens. However, the colorimetric method employed in previous studies involved short ssDNA (<100 nucleotides), including the aptamer and PCR products, resulting in the high detection limit of this technique. In this study, a colorimetric sensor was developed based on long ssDNA of asymmetric PCR (aPCR) and non-functionalized AuNPs for detecting Salmonella Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium). In the presence of S. Typhimurium, the long ssDNA (547 nt) amplified by aPCR-protected AuNPs from NaCl-induced aggregation, while the solution retained a red color. After optimizing parameters, the limit of detection (LOD) of the colorimetric sensor was 2.56 CFU/mL with high specificity. Recovery studies showed its feasibility for detecting S. Typhimurium (102 CFU/mL, 104 CFU/mL, and 106 CFU/mL) in spiked lettuce samples. This colorimetric sensor provides new opportunities for the highly sensitive detection of bacteria in real food samples.

Abstract
We review the challenges and opportunities for biosensor research in North America aimed to accelerate translational research. We call for platform approaches based on: i) tools that can support interoperability between food, environment and agriculture, ii) open-source tools for analytics, iii) algorithms used for data and information arbitrage, and iv) use-inspired sensor design. We summarize select mobile devices and phone-based biosensors that couple analytical systems with biosensors for improving decision support. Over 100 biosensors developed by labs in North America were analyzed, including lab-based and portable devices. The results of this literature review show that nearly one quarter of the manuscripts focused on fundamental platform development or material characterization. Among the biosensors analyzed for food (post-harvest) or environmental applications, most devices were based on optical transduction (whether a lab assay or portable device). Most biosensors for agricultural applications were based on electrochemical transduction and few utilized a mobile platform. Presently, the FEAST of biosensors has produced a wealth of opportunity but faces a famine of actionable information without a platform for analytics.

Abstract
Escherichia coli O157:H7 (E. coli O157:H7) is a dangerous foodborne pathogen, mainly found in beef, milk, fruits, and their products, causing harm to human health or even death. Therefore, the detection of E. coli O157:H7 in food is particularly important. In this paper, we report a lateral flow immunoassay strip (LFIS) based on aggregation-induced emission (AIE) material labeling antigen as a fluorescent probe for the rapid detection of E. coli O157:H7. The detection sensitivity of the strip is 105 CFU/mL, which is 10 times higher than that of the colloidal gold test strip. This method has good specificity and stability and can be used to detect about 250 CFU of E. coli O157:H7 successfully in 25 g or 25 mL of beef, jelly, and milk. AIE-LFIS might be valuable in monitoring food pathogens for rapid detection.

Abstract
Detection of pathogens, e.g., bacteria and viruses, is still a big challenge in analytical medicine due to their vast number and variety. Developing strategies for rapid, inexpensive, specific, and sensitive detection of the pathogens using nanomaterials, integrating with microfluidics devices, amplification methods, or even combining these strategies have received significant attention. Especially, after the health-threatening COVID-19 outbreak, rapid and sensitive detection of pathogens became very critical. Detection of pathogens could be realized with electrochemical, optical, mass sensitive, or thermal methods. Among them, electrochemical methods are very promising by bringing different advantages, i.e., they exhibit more versatile detection schemes and real-time quantification as well as label-free measurements, which provides a broader application perspective. In this review, we discuss the recent advances for the detection of bacteria and viruses using electrochemical biosensors. Moreover, electrochemical biosensors for pathogen detection were broadly reviewed in terms of analyte, bio-recognition and transduction elements. Different fabrication techniques, detection principles, and applications of various pathogens with the electrochemical biosensors were also discussed.

Abstract
An impedance biosensor using rotary magnetic separation and cascade reaction was developed for rapid and ultrasensitive detection of Salmonella typhimurium. First, magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) modified with anti-Salmonella monoclonal antibodies were injected into a capillary at the presence of a rotary high gradient magnetic field, which was rotated by a stepper motor. Then, a bacterial sample was injected into the capillary and the target bacteria were continuous-flow captured onto the MNPs. After organic-inorganic hybrid nanoflowers were prepared using manganese dioxide (MnO2), glucose oxidase (GOx) and anti-Salmonella polyclonal antibodies (pAbs), they were injected to label the bacteria, resulting in the formation of MNP-bacteria-nanoflower sandwich complexes. Finally, glucose (low conductivity) was injected and oxidized by GOx on the complexes to produce H2O2 (low conductivity) and gluconic acid (high conductivity), leading to impedance decrease. Besides, the produced H2O2 triggered a cascade reduction of MnO2 into Mn2+, leading to further impedance decrease. The impedance changes were measured using an interdigitated microelectrode and used to determine the concentration of target bacteria. This biosensor was able to detect Salmonella ranging from 101 to 106 CFU/mL in 2 h with a low detection limit of 101 CFU/mL and a mean recovery of 100.1% for the spiked chicken samples.

Abstract
Salmonella is one of the main causes of foodborne infectious diseases, posing a serious threat to public health. It can enter the food supply chain at various stages of production, processing, distribution, and marketing. High prevalence of Salmonella necessitates efficient and effective approaches for its identification, detection, and monitoring at an early stage. Because conventional methods based on plate counting and real-time polymerase chain reaction are time-consuming and laborious, novel rapid detection methods are urgently needed for in-field and on-line applications. Biosensors provide many advantages over conventional laboratory assays in terms of sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy, and show superiority in rapid response and potential portability. They are now recognized as promising alternative tools and one of the most on-site applicable and end user-accessible methods for rapid detection. In recent years, we have witnessed a flourishing of studies in the development of robust and elaborate biosensors for detection of Salmonella in food. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview on Salmonella biosensors by highlighting different signal-transducing mechanisms (optical, electrochemical, piezoelectric, etc.) and critically analyzing its recent trends, particularly in combination with nanomaterials, microfluidics, portable instruments, and smartphones. Furthermore, current challenges are emphasized and future perspectives are discussed.

Biosens Bioelectron 2020; 173:112800. [PMID: 33186789 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2020.112800] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2020] [Revised: 10/14/2020] [Accepted: 11/03/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Screening of pathogenic bacteria in foods is an effective way to prevent foodborne diseases. In this study, an impedance biosensor was developed for rapid and sensitive detection of Salmonella typhimurium using multiple magnetic nanobead (MNB) nets in a ring channel for continuous-flow separation of target bacteria from 10 mL of sample, manganese dioxide nanoflowers (MnO2 NFs) for efficient amplification of biological signal, and an interdigitated microelectrode for sensitive measurement of impedance change. First, the MNBs modified with capture antibodies were vortically injected from outer periphery of this ring channel to form multiple ring MNB nets at specific locations with high gradient magnetic fields. Then, the bacterial sample was continuous-flow injected, resulting in specific capture of target bacteria onto the nets, and the MnO2 NFs modified with detection antibodies were injected to form MNB-bacteria-MnO2 NF complexes. After the complexes were washed with deionized water to remove excessive nanoflowers and residual ions, H2O2 with poor conductivity was injected to reduce MnO2 NFs to conductive Mn2+ at neutral medium, leading to impedance decrease. Finally, impedance change was measured using the microelectrode for quantitative determination of Salmonella. This biosensor was able to separate ~60% of Salmonella from 10 mL of bacterial sample and detect Salmonella with a linear range of 3.0 × 101 to 3.0 × 106 CFU/mL in 1.5 h with lower detection limit of 19 CFU/mL. This biosensor might be further improved with higher sensitivity using a larger volume (100 mL or more) for routine screening of foodborne bacteria without bacterial pre-culture.

Abstract
Food spoilage is caused by the development of microorganisms, biogenic amines, and other harmful substances, which, when consumed, can lead to different health problems. Foodborne diseases can be avoided by assessing the safety and freshness of food along the production and supply chains. The routine methods for food analysis usually involve long analysis times and complex instrumentation and are performed in centralized laboratories. In this context, sensors based on screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) have gained increasing importance because of their advantageous characteristics, such as ease of use and portability, which allow fast analysis in point-of-need scenarios. This review provides a comprehensive overview of SPE-based sensors for the evaluation of food safety and freshness, focusing on the determination of bacteria and biogenic amines. After discussing the characteristics of SPEs as transducers, the main bacteria, and biogenic amines responsible for important and common foodborne diseases are described. Then, SPE-based sensors for the analysis of these bacteria and biogenic amines in food samples are discussed, comparing several parameters, such as limit of detection, analysis time, and sample type.

Abstract
Here, we reported an innovative and electrochemical biosensor for the rapid detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7. We fabricated the mesoporous ZrO2-Ag-G-SiO2 (ZAGS) and In2O3-G-SiO2 (IGS) sensors, and cyclic voltammetry (CV) was employed to detect the bacteria. The development of these portable sensors addresses the challenges of conventional time-consuming and more expensive laboratory-based analyses. Hence, the biosensors were highly selective to detect E. coli. The sensor could recognize an individual E. coli cell in 1 μL of sample volume within 30 s. E. coli live cells tied down on sample nanoparticles worked toward the definite acquirement of E. coli. The high thickness of negative charge on the surface of E. coli cells effectively regulated the concentration of dominant part charge carriers in the mesoporous channel, allowing a continuous check of E. coli concentration in a known sample. The signal current decreased linearly, while the E. coli concentration increased from 1.0 × 101 to 1.0 × 1010 CFU/mL. ZAGS and IGS biosensors could detect E. coli in the range from 101 to 1010 CFU/mL. ZAGS and IGS biosensors in this investigation showed great specificity, reproducibility, stability, and selectivity and are expected to have a great impact on applications in the detection of foodborne pathogens.

Abstract
Food-borne illnesses are a growing concern for the food industry and consumers, with millions of cases reported every year. Consequently, there is a critical need to develop rapid, sensitive, and inexpensive techniques for pathogen detection in order to mitigate this problem. However, current pathogen detection strategies mainly include time-consuming laboratory methods and highly trained personnel. Electrochemical in-field biosensors offer a rapid, low-cost alternative to laboratory techniques, but the electrodes used in these biosensors require expensive nanomaterials to increase their sensitivity, such as noble metals (e.g., platinum, gold) or carbon nanomaterials (e.g., carbon nanotubes, or graphene). Herein, we report the fabrication of a highly sensitive and label-free laser-induced graphene (LIG) electrode that is subsequently functionalized with antibodies to electrochemically quantify the food-borne pathogen Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. The LIG electrodes were produced by laser induction on the polyimide film in ambient conditions and, hence, circumvent the need for high-temperature, vacuum environment, and metal seed catalysts commonly associated with graphene-based electrodes fabricated via chemical vapor deposition processes. After functionalization with Salmonella antibodies, the LIG biosensors were able to detect live Salmonella in chicken broth across a wide linear range (25 to 105 CFU mL-1) and with a low detection limit (13 ± 7 CFU mL-1; n = 3, mean ± standard deviation). These results were acquired with an average response time of 22 min without the need for sample preconcentration or redox labeling techniques. Moreover, these LIG immunosensors displayed high selectivity as demonstrated by nonsignificant response to other bacteria strains. These results demonstrate how LIG-based electrodes can be used for electrochemical immunosensing in general and, more specifically, could be used as a viable option for rapid and low-cost pathogen detection in food processing facilities before contaminated foods reach the consumer.

Abstract
Escherichia coli O157:H7 is an important pathogenic Bacterium that threatens human health. A convenient, sensitive and specific method for the E. coli O157:H7 detection is necessary. We developed two pairs of monoclonal antibodies through traditional hybridoma technology, one specifically against E. coli O157 antigen and the other specifically against E. coli H7 antigen. Using these two pairs of antibodies, we developed two rapid test kits to specifically detect E. coli O157 antigen and E. coli H7 antigen, respectively. The detection sensitivity for O157 positive E. coli is 1 × 103 CFU per ml and for H7 positive E. coli is 1 × 104 CFU per ml. Combining these two pairs of antibodies together, we developed a combo test strip that can specifically detect O157: H7, with a detection sensitivity of 1 × 104 CFU per ml, when two detection lines are visible to the naked eye. This is currently the only rapid detection reagent that specifically detects O157: H7 by simultaneously detecting O157 antigen and H7 antigens of E. coli. Our product has advantages of simplicity and precision, and can be a very useful on-site inspection tool for accurate and rapid detection of E. coli O157:H7 infection.

Abstract
Recent insights into the rapidly emerging field of bacterial sensing and biofilm monitoring for infection diagnostics are discussed as well as recent key developments and emerging technologies in the field. Electrochemical sensing of bacteria and bacterial biofilm via synthetic, natural, and engineered recognition, as well as direct redox-sensing approaches via algorithm-based optical sensing, and tailor-made optotracing technology are discussed. These technologies are highlighted to answer the very critical question: "how can fast and accurate bacterial sensing and biofilm monitoring be achieved? Following on from that: "how can these different sensing concepts be translated for use in infection diagnostics? A central obstacle to this transformation is the absence of direct and fast analysis methods that provide high-throughput results and bio-interfaces that can control and regulate the means of communication between biological and electronic systems. Here, the overall progress made to date in building such translational efforts at the level of an individual bacterial cell to a bacterial community is discussed.

Abstract
Escherichia coli O157:H7 is an extremely serious foodborne pathogen accounting for a vast number of hospitalizations. In this system, a simple, rapid, and safe compound method was developed based on carbonyl iron powder (CIP) and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT). Then, the CIP@MWCNT-based aptasensor was constructed by strong π-stacking between nanocomposite and aptamer, single-strand DNA, causing fluorescent quenching of the dye-labeled aptamer. The restoration of dye fluorescence could be achieved when aptamer came off the surface of the CIP@MWCNT nanocomposite due to the presence of target bacteria. To the best of our knowledge, this fabrication of magnetic carbon nanotubes without irritating and corrosive reagents is described for the first time. The sensing platform was also an improvement on the conventional formation of the aptasensor between carbon materials and DNA aptamer. The nanocomposite was verified by diverse characterization of zeta potential, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and energy dispersive x-ray analysis. The CIP@MWCNT-based aptasensor was an effective nanoplatform for quantitative detection of E. coli O157:H7, and was measured to have high specificity, good reproducibility, and strong stability. The aptasensor's capacity to quantify E. coli O157:H7 was as low as 7.15 × 103 cfu/mL in pure culture. The detection limit of E. coli O157:H7 was 3.15 × 102 cfu/mL in contaminated milk after 1 h of pre-incubation. Hence, the developed assay is a new possibility for effective synthesis of nanocomposites and sensitive tests of foodborne pathogens in the dairy industry.
