Abstract
One of the lessons we learned from the COVID-19 pandemic is that the need for ultrasensitive detection systems is now more critical than ever. While sensors' sensitivity, portability, selectivity, and low cost are crucial, new ways to couple synergistic methods enable the highest performance levels. This review article critically discusses the synergetic combinations of optical and electrochemical methods. We also discuss three key application fields-energy, biomedicine, and environment. Finally, we selected the most promising approaches and examples, the open challenges in sensing, and ways to overcome them. We expect this work to set a clear reference for developing and understanding strategies, pros and cons of different combinations of electrochemical and optical sensors integrated into a single device.

Talanta 2024; 274:125916. [PMID: 38547835 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.125916] [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: 09/10/2023] [Revised: 01/07/2024] [Accepted: 03/11/2024] [Indexed: 05/04/2024]
Abstract
In this report, a facile and label-free electrochemical RNA biosensor is developed by exploiting methylene blue (MB) as an electroactive positive ligand of G-quadruplex. The electrochemical response mechanism of the nucleic acid assay was based on the change in differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) signal of adsorbed MB on the immobilized human telomeric G-quadruplex DNA with a loop that is complementary to the target RNA. Hybridization between synthetic positive control RNA and G-quadruplex DNA probe on the transducer platform rendered a conformational change of G-quadruplex to double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), and increased the redox current of cationic MB π planar ligand at the sensing interface, thereby the electrochemical signal of the MB-adsorbed duplex is proportional to the concentration of target RNA, with SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) RNA as the model. Under optimal conditions, the target RNA can be detected in a linear range from 1 zM to 1 μM with a limit of detection (LOD) obtained at 0.59 zM for synthetic target RNA and as low as 1.4 copy number for positive control plasmid. This genosensor exhibited high selectivity towards SARS-CoV-2 RNA over other RNA nucleotides, such as SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV. The electrochemical RNA biosensor showed DPV signal, which was proportional to the 2019-nCoV_N_positive control plasmid from 2 to 200000 copies (R2 = 0.978). A good correlation between the genosensor and qRT-PCR gold standard was attained for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in terms of viral copy number in clinical samples from upper respiratory specimens.

Abstract
Capsaicin (CAP) is a primary indicator for assessing the level of pungency. Herein, iron-based single-atom nanozymes (SAzymes) (Fe/NC) with exceptional oxidase-like activity were used to construct an immunosensor for CAP analysis. Fe/NC could imitate oxidase actions by transforming O2 to •O2- radicals in the absence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), which could avoid complex operations and unstable results. By regulating the Fe atom loads, an optimal Fe0.7/NC atom usage rate could improve the catalytic activity (Michaelis-Menten constant (Km) = 0.09 mM). Fe0.7/NC was integrated with goat antimouse IgG by facile mix incubation to develop a competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Our Fe0.7/NC immunosensing platform is anticipated to outperform the conventional ELISA in terms of stability and shelf life. The proposed immunosensor provided color responses across 0.01-1000 ng/mL CAP concentrations, with a detection limit of 0.046 ng/mL. Fe/NC may have potential as nanozymes for CAP detection in spicy foods, with promising applications in food biosensing.

Abstract
A sensitive and robust electrochemical cholinesterase-based sensor was developed to detect the quaternary ammonium (QAs) biocides most frequently found in agri-food industry wash waters: benzalkonium chloride (BAC) and didecyldimethylammonium chloride (DDAC). To reach the maximum residue limit of 28 nM imposed by the European Union (EU), two types of cholinesterases were tested, acetylcholinesterase (AChE, from Drosophila melanogaster) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE, from horse serum). The sensors were designed by entrapping AChE or BChE on cobalt phthalocyanine-modified screen-printed carbon electrodes. The limits of detection (LOD) of the resulting biosensors were 38 nM for DDAC and 320 nM for BAC, using, respectively, AChE and BChE. A simple solid-phase extraction step was used to concentrate the samples before biosensor analysis, allowing for the accurate determination of DDAC and BAC in tap water with limits of quantification (LOQ) as low as 2.7 nM and 5.3 nM, respectively. Additional assays demonstrated that the use of a phosphotriesterase enzyme allows for the total removal of interferences due to the possible presence of organophosphate insecticides in the sample. The developed biosensors were shown to be stable during 3 months storage at 4 °C.

Abstract
This work reports the construction of a novel nanostructured immunosensor for detection of the troponin I biomarker (cTnI). Anti-troponin I antibody was anchored on the modified graphite electrode with reduced graphene oxide and polytyramine for detection of troponin I in serum samples. The performance of the electro-immunosensor was evaluated by differential pulse voltammetry. The immunosensor presented a wide work range, from 4 ng mL-1 to 4 pg mL-1 , whose detection limit (4 pg mL-1 ) is significantly lower than the basal level in human serum, and maintained 100% of response after 30 days of storage. Moreover, the immunosensor showed good selectivity for detection of cTnI in real sample containing interfering substances and specificity of response to cTnI in the serum of healthy and sick patients, and demonstrated the possibility of reuse for two consecutive analyses, in addition to using a simplified and inexpensive platform when compared to other devices, demonstrating them excellent potential for application in diagnosis in the early stages of acute myocardial infarction.

Abstract
Both passive and active microfluidic chips are used in many biomedical and chemical applications to support fluid mixing, particle manipulations, and signal detection. Passive microfluidic devices are geometry-dependent, and their uses are rather limited. Active microfluidic devices include sensors or detectors that transduce chemical, biological, and physical changes into electrical or optical signals. Also, they are transduction devices that detect biological and chemical changes in biomedical applications, and they are highly versatile microfluidic tools for disease diagnosis and organ modeling. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the significant advances that have been made in the development of microfluidics devices. We will discuss the function of microfluidic devices as micromixers or as sorters of cells and substances (e.g., microfiltration, flow or displacement, and trapping). Microfluidic devices are fabricated using a range of techniques, including molding, etching, three-dimensional printing, and nanofabrication. Their broad utility lies in the detection of diagnostic biomarkers and organ-on-chip approaches that permit disease modeling in cancer, as well as uses in neurological, cardiovascular, hepatic, and pulmonary diseases. Biosensor applications allow for point-of-care testing, using assays based on enzymes, nanozymes, antibodies, or nucleic acids (DNA or RNA). An anticipated development in the field includes the optimization of techniques for the fabrication of microfluidic devices using biocompatible materials. These developments will increase biomedical versatility, reduce diagnostic costs, and accelerate diagnosis time of microfluidics technology.

Abstract
Methods for producing DNA SAM-based sensors with improved thermal stability and control over the homogeneity of low DNA probe density will enable advanced sensor development. The thermal stability of low-coverage DNA SAMs was studied for surfaces prepared using potential-assisted thiol exchange (Edep) and compared to DNA SAMs prepared without control over the substrate potential (OCPdep). Both surface preparation methods were studied using in situ fluorescence microscopy and electrochemistry with fluorophore or redox-modified DNA SAMs on a single-crystal gold bead electrode. Fluorescence microscopy showed that the influence of the underlying surface crystallography was important in both cases. The highest thermal stability was realized for square or rectangular surface atomic structure (e.g., surfaces from 110 to 100). The 111 and related surfaces were the least thermally stable. The low DNA coverage surfaces prepared by Edep had better thermal stability and higher DNA probe mobility as compared to OCPdep-prepared surfaces with the similar coverage. These results were correlated with methylene blue redox-tagged DNA probes, which directly measured the average DNA coverage. Both methods indicated that Edep DNA SAMs were more uniformly distributed across the electrode surface, while the surfaces prepared via OCPdep assembled into clusters with reduced mobility. The potential-assisted thiol-exchange approach to preparing low-coverage DNA SAMs was shown to quickly create modified surfaces that were consistent, had mobility characteristics which should yield superior DNA hybridization efficiencies, and having greater thermal stability which will translate into a longer shelf-life.

Abstract
Nitinol exhibits unique (thermo)mechanical properties that make it central to the design of many medical devices. However, nitinol nominally contains 50 atomic percent nickel, which if released in sufficient quantities, can lead to adverse health effects. While nickel release from nitinol devices is typically characterized using in vitro immersion tests, these evaluations require lengthy time periods. We have explored elevated temperature as a potential method to expedite this testing. Nickel release was characterized in nitinol materials with surface oxide thickness ranging from 12 to 1564 nm at four different temperatures from 310 to 360 K. We found that for three of the materials with relatively thin oxide layers, ≤ 87 nm nickel release exhibited Arrhenius behavior over the entire temperature range with activation energies of 80 to 85 kJ/mol. Conversely, the fourth ''black-oxide'' material, with a much thicker, complex oxide layer, was not well characterized by an Arrhenius relationship. Power law release profiles were observed in all four materials; however, the exponent from the thin oxide materials was approximately 1/4 compared with 3/4 for the black-oxide material. To illustrate the potential benefit of using elevated temperature to abbreviate nickel release testing, we demonstrated that a > 50 day 310 K release profile could be accurately recovered by testing for less than 1 week at 340 K. However, because the materials explored in this study were limited, additional testing and mechanistic insight are needed to establish a protective temperature scaling that can be applied to all nitinol medical device components.

Abstract
Electrochemical sensors play a significant role in detecting chemical ions, molecules, and pathogens in water and other applications. These sensors are sensitive, portable, fast, inexpensive, and suitable for online and in-situ measurements compared to other methods. They can provide the detection for any compound that can undergo certain transformations within a potential window. It enables applications in multiple ion detection, mainly since these sensors are primarily non-specific. In this paper, we provide a survey of electrochemical sensors for the detection of water contaminants, i.e., pesticides, nitrate, nitrite, phosphorus, water hardeners, disinfectant, and other emergent contaminants (phenol, estrogen, gallic acid etc.). We focus on the influence of surface modification of the working electrodes by carbon nanomaterials, metallic nanostructures, imprinted polymers and evaluate the corresponding sensing performance. Especially for pesticides, which are challenging and need special care, we highlight biosensors, such as enzymatic sensors, immunobiosensor, aptasensors, and biomimetic sensors. We discuss the sensors' overall performance, especially concerning real-sample performance and the capability for actual field application.

Abstract
The thermal stability of thiol based DNA SAMs prepared on gold surfaces is an important parameter that is correlated to sensor lifetime. The thermal stability of DNA SAMs was evaluated in aqueous buffer through the use of fluorophore labeled DNA, a single crystal gold bead electrode, and microscopy. The stability of different crystallographic regions on the electrode was studied for thermal treatments up to 95 °C for 90 min. Using a in situ combinatorial surface analytical measurement showed that the crystallography of the underlying gold surface played a significant role, with the square or rectangular lattices (e.g., 110, 100, 210) having the highest stability. Surfaces with hexagonal lattices (e.g., 111, 311, 211) were less stable toward thermal treatments. These crystallographic trends were observed for both high and low coverage DNA SAMs. High coverage DNA SAMs were the most stable, with stability decreasing with decreasing coverage on average. Increasing DNA SAM coverage appears to slow the kinetics of thermal desorption, but the coordination to the underlying surface determined their relative stability. Preparing the DNA SAMs under nominally similar conditions were found to create surfaces that were similar at room temperature, but had significantly different thermal stability. Optimal DNA sensing with these surfaces most often requires low coverage DNA SAMs which results in poor thermal stability, which is predictive of a poor shelf life, making optimization of both parameters challenging. Furthermore, the crystallographically specific results should be taken into account when studying the typically used polycrystalline substrates since the underlying surface crystallography maybe different for different samples. It appears that preparing DNA SAMs with low coverage and significant thermal stability will be challenging using the current SAM preparation procedures.

Abstract
Bioreactors at the microliter scale offer a promising approach to accelerate bioprocess development. Advantages of such microbioreactors include a reduction in the use of expensive reagents. In this study, a chemostat operation mode of a cuvette-based microbubble column bioreactor made of polystyrene (working volume of 550 µL) was demonstrated. Aeration occurs through a nozzle (Ø ≤ 100 µm) and supports submerged whole-cell cultivation of Staphylococcus carnosus. Stationary concentrations of biomass and glucose were determined in the dilution rate regime ranging from 0.12 to 0.80 1/h with a glucose feed concentration of 1 g/L. For the first time, reaction kinetics of S. carnosus were estimated from data obtained from continuous cultivation. The maximal specific growth rate (µmax = 0.824 1/h), Monod constant (KS = 34 × 10- 3gS/L), substrate-related biomass yield coefficient (YX/S = 0.315 gCDW/gS), and maintenance coefficient (mS = 0.0035 gS/(gCDW·h)) were determined. These parameters are now available for further studies in the field of synthetic biology.
