Abstract
Gold Nanoparticles (AuNPs) have gained significant attention in biosensor development due to their unique physical, chemical, and optical properties. When incorporated into biosensors, AuNPs offer several advantages, including a high surface area-to-volume ratio, excellent biocompatibility, ease of functionalization, and tunable optical properties. These properties make them ideal for the detection of various biomolecules, including proteins, nucleic acids, and bacterial and viral biomarkers. Traditional methods for detecting bacteria and viruses, such as RT-PCR and ELISA, often suffer from complexities, time consumption, and labor intensiveness. Consequently, researchers are continuously exploring novel devices to address these limitations and effectively detect a diverse array of infectious pathogenic microorganisms. In light of these challenges, nanotechnology has been instrumental in refining the architecture and performance of biosensors. By leveraging advancements in nanomaterials and strategies of biosensor fabrication the sensitivity and specificity of biosensors can be enhanced, enabling more precise detection of pathogenic bacteria and viruses. This review explores the versatility of AuNPs in detecting a variety of biomolecules, including proteins, nucleic acids, and bacterial and viral biomarkers. Furthermore, it evaluates recent advancements in AuNPs-based biosensors for the detection of pathogens, utilizing techniques such as optical biosensors, lateral flow immunoassays, colorimetric immunosensors, electrochemical biosensors, and fluorescence nanobiosensors. Additionally, the study discusses the existing challenges in the field and proposes future directions to improve AuNPs-based biosensors, with a focus on enhancing sensitivity, selectivity, and their utility in clinical and diagnostic applications.

Abstract
Cow's milk, an excellent source of fat, protein, amino acids, vitamins and minerals, is currently one of the most consumed products worldwide. Contaminations originating from diverse sources, such as biological, chemical, and physical, cause dairy product quality problems and thus dairy-related disorders, raising public health issues. For this reason, legal authorities have deemed it necessary to classify certain contaminations in commercial milk and keep them within particular limitations; therefore, it is urgent to develop next-generation detection systems that can accurately identify just the contaminants of concern to human health. This review presents a detailed investigation of biosensors based on graphene and its derivatives, which offer superior sensitivity and selectivity, by classifying the contaminants under the headings biological, chemical, and physical, in cow's milk according to their sources. We reviewed the current status of graphene-based biosensor (GBs) technology for milk or dairy analysis, highlighting its strengths and weaknesses with the help of comparative studies, tables, and charts, and we put forward a novel perspective to handle future challenges.

Abstract
An outbreak of foodborne pathogens would cause severe consequences. Detecting and diagnosing foodborne diseases is crucial for food safety, and it is increasingly important to develop fast, sensitive, and cost-effective methods for detecting foodborne pathogens. In contrast to traditional methods, such as medium-based culture, nucleic acid amplification test, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, electrochemical biosensors possess the advantages of simplicity, rapidity, high sensitivity, miniaturization, and low cost, making them ideal for developing pathogen-sensing devices. The biorecognition layer, consisting of recognition elements, such as aptamers, antibodies and bacteriophages, and other biomolecules or polymers, is the most critical component to determine the selectivity, specificity, reproducibility, and lifetime of a biosensor when detecting pathogens in a biosample. Furthermore, nanomaterials have been frequently used to improve electrochemical biosensors for sensitively detecting foodborne pathogens due to their high conductivity, surface-to-volume ratio, and electrocatalytic activity. In this review, we survey the characteristics of biorecognition elements and nanomaterials in constructing electrochemical biosensors applicable for detecting foodborne pathogens during the past five years. As well as the challenges and opportunities of electrochemical biosensors in the application of foodborne pathogen detection are discussed.

Abstract
Although colorectal cancer (CRC) is easy to treat surgically and can be combined with postoperative chemotherapy, its five-year survival rate is still not optimistic. Therefore, developing sensitive, efficient, and compliant detection technology is essential to diagnose CRC at an early stage, providing more opportunities for effective treatment and intervention. Currently, the widely used clinical CRC detection methods include endoscopy, stool examination, imaging modalities, and tumor biomarker detection; among them, blood biomarkers, a noninvasive strategy for CRC screening, have shown significant potential for early diagnosis, prediction, prognosis, and staging of cancer. As shown by recent studies, electrochemical biosensors have attracted extensive attention for the detection of blood biomarkers because of their advantages of being cost-effective and having sound sensitivity, good versatility, high selectivity, and a fast response. Among these, nano-conductive polymer materials, especially the conductive polymer polypyrrole (PPy), have been broadly applied to improve sensing performance due to their excellent electrical properties and the flexibility of their surface properties, as well as their easy preparation and functionalization and good biocompatibility. This review mainly discusses the characteristics of PPy-based biosensors, their synthetic methods, and their application for the detection of CRC biomarkers. Finally, the opportunities and challenges related to the use of PPy-based sensors for diagnosing CRC are also discussed.

Abstract
Modern society has been facing serious health-related problems including food safety, diseases and illness. Hence, it is urgent to develop analysis methods for the detection and control of food contaminants, disease biomarkers and pathogens. As the traditional instrumental methods have several disadvantages, including being time consuming, and having high cost and laborious procedures, optical nanosensors have emerged as promising alternative or complementary approaches to those traditional ones. With the advantages of simple preparation, high surface-to-volume ratio, excellent biocompatibility, and especially, unique optical properties, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been demonstrated as excellent transducers for optical sensing systems. Herein, we provide an overview of the synthesis of AuNPs and their excellent optical properties that are ideal for the development of optical nanosensors based on local surface plasmon resonance (LSPR), colorimetry, fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) phenomena. We also review the sensing strategies and their mechanisms, as well as summarizing the recent advances in the monitoring of food contaminants, disease biomarkers and pathogens using developed AuNP-based optical nanosensors in the past seven years (2015-now). Furthermore, trends and challenges in the application of these nanosensors in the determination of those analytes are discussed to suggest possible directions for future developments.

Abstract
An ultrasensitive label-free electrochemical immunosensor was fabricated for quantitative detection of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG). The N/O co-doped three-dimensional hierarchical porous graphitic (THPG) carbon was synthesized by a one-step synthesis of polyaniline hydrogel, and followed by simple carbonization and chemical activation procedures. Because of the unique structure design, the obtained THPG carbon networks possess an ultra-large specific surface area of 4859 m2 g-1 along with a class of highly graphitic carbons. The results offer an enormous surface area and excellent electrical conductivity for label-free electrochemical immunosensing of probiotic L. rhamnosus strain. Under optimal conditions, the immunosensor showed a good linear relationship between peak current and concentration of LGG (R2 = 0.9976), with a detection limit of 2 CFU mL-1. Furthermore, this label-free immunosensor also shows good specificity, long-term stability, and reliability, and could be applied to detect probiotic LGG in dairy products and drinks with satisfactory results. The present protocol was shown to be quite promising for practical screening and functional evaluation of probiotic products containing LGG. A ultrasensitive label-free electrochemical immunosensor based on THPG carbon was fabricated for detection of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG.

Abstract
Due to their properties, snail slime-based products have been appreciated and used worldwide. So, as an alternative and innovative use of snail slime, it was adopted to induce gold nanoparticles' formation, conferring them interesting properties. By a simple, one-pot, and eco-friendly approach, 14 ± 6 nm wide hybrid gold nanoparticles, having an inorganic metallic core decorated by the slime's main components, were obtained. Among their several properties, their antioxidant and tyrosinase inhibition activity were investigated through the DPPH and ABTS and the tyrosinase assays, respectively. After assessing their non-cytotoxicity in our previous work, the results revealed positive responses, enabling their use as a potential novel multifunctional ingredient in cosmetics. Interestingly, the gold nanoparticle photostability, investigated by means of a solar simulator lamp, suggests using them in commercial cosmetic sunscreen products as a potential alternative to the commonly used inorganic sunscreen ingredients. The theoretical Sun Protection Factor was evaluated, obtaining values in the range 0-12. The proposed environmentally friendly and cost-effective protocol for nanoparticle synthesis, following the principles of Green Chemistry, opens a hugely attractive space toward the study of snail slime-based gold nanoparticles as a potential multipurpose platform in cosmetics.

Abstract
Infectious diseases are a potential risk for public health and the global economy. Fast and accurate detection of the pathogens that cause these infections is important to avoid the transmission of the diseases. Conventional methods for the detection of these microorganisms are time-consuming, costly, and not applicable for on-site monitoring. Biosensors can provide a fast, reliable, and point of care diagnostic. Nanomaterials, due to their outstanding electrical, chemical, and optical features, have become key players in the area of biosensors. This review will cover different nanomaterials that employed in electrochemical, optical, and instrumental biosensors for infectious disease diagnosis and how these contributed to enhancing the sensitivity and rapidity of the various sensing platforms. Examples of nanomaterial synthesis methods as well as a comprehensive description of their properties are explained. Moreover, when available, comparative data, in the presence and absence of the nanomaterials, have been reported to further highlight how the usage of nanomaterials enhances the performances of the sensor.

Abstract
Escherichia coli is a harmful Gram-negative bacterium commonly found in the gut of warm-blooded organisms and affects millions of people annually worldwide. In this study, we have synthesized a ZnO-CuO nanocomposite (NC) by a co-precipitation method and characterized the as-synthesized NC using FTIR spectroscopy, XRD, Raman spectroscopy, and FESEM techniques. To fabricate the immunosensor, the ZnO-CuO NC composite was screen-printed on gold-plated electrodes followed by physisorption of the anti-LPS E. coli antibody. The biosensor was optimized for higher specificity and sensitivity. The immunosensor exhibited a high sensitivity (11.04 μA CFU mL-1) with a low detection limit of 2 CFU mL-1 with a redox couple. The improved performance of the immunosensor is attributed to the synergistic effect of the NC and the antilipopolysaccharide antibody against E. coli. The selectivity studies were also carried out with Staphylococcus aureus to assess the specificity of the immunosensor. Testing in milk samples was done by spiking the milk samples with different concentrations of E. coli to check the potential of this immunosensor. We further checked the affinity between ZnO-CuO NC with E. coli LPS and the anti-LPS antibody using molecular docking studies. Atomic charge computation and interaction analyses were performed to support our hypothesis. Our results discern that there is a strong correlation between molecular docking studies and electrochemical characterization. The interaction analysis further displays the strong affinity between the antibody-LPS complex when immobilized with a nanoparticle composite (ZnO-CuO).

Abstract
Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) are a growing concern around the world. They contribute to increasing mortality and morbidity rates and are an economic threat. All hospital patients have the potential to contract an HAI, but those with weakened or inferior immune systems are at highest risk. Most hospital patients will contract at least one HAI, but many will contract multiple ones. Bacteria are the most common cause of HAIs and contribute to 80-90% of all HAIs, with Staphylococcus aureus, Clostridium difficile, Escherichia coli, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumoniae accounting for the majority. Each of these bacteria are highly resistant to antibiotics and can produce a protective film, known as a biofilm, to further prevent their eradication. It has been shown that by detecting and eradicating bacteria in the environment, infection rates can be reduced. The current methods for detecting bacteria are time consuming, non-specific, and prone to false negatives or false positives. Aptamer-based biosensors have demonstrated specific, time-efficient and simple detection, highlighting the likelihood that they could be used in a similar way to detect HAI-causing bacteria.

Abstract
This work investigates polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane modification to enhance its hydrophilicity and antibacterial properties. PVDF membranes were coated with nanoparticles of titanium dioxide (TiO2-NP) and silver (AgNP) at different concentrations and coating times and characterized for their porosity, morphology, chemical functional groups and composition changes. The results showed the successfully modified PVDF membranes containing TiO2-NP and AgNP on their surfaces. When the coating time was increased from 8 to 24 h, the compositions of Ti and Ag of the modified membranes were increased from 1.39 ± 0.13 to 4.29 ± 0.16 and from 1.03 ± 0.07 to 3.62 ± 0.08, respectively. The water contact angle of the membranes was decreased with increasing the coating time and TiO2-NP/AgNP ratio. The surface roughness and permeate fluxes of coated membranes were increased due to increased hydrophilicity. Antimicrobial and antifouling properties were investigated by the reduction of Escherichia coli cells and the inhibition of biofilm formation on the membrane surface, respectively. Compared with that of the original PVDF membrane, the modified membranes exhibited antibacterial efficiency up to 94% against E. coli cells and inhibition up to 65% of the biofilm mass reduction. The findings showed hydrophilic improvement and an antimicrobial property for possible wastewater treatment without facing the eminent problem of biofouling.

Abstract
A facile immunosensor was constructed based on a barometer indicator using a double-antibody- sandwich method for rapid and sensitive detection of Escherichia coli (E. coli) from water samples. At the present study, Anti- E. coli DH-5 polyclonal antibody was modified through enriching carboxylated magnetic beads and catalase functionalized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)- loaded nanospheres. The functionalized AuNPs-loaded nanospheres exhibited an excellent catalysis towards decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), generating a large volume of oxygen (O2) into waters, increasing the pressure inside the glass vial, which in turn raised the water level in barometer. Under the optimized experimental conditions, the proposed method showed wide linear ranges (102- 107 cfu mL-1), good accuracy and precision (recoveries, 86.7- 107%; CV, 3.2- 8.1%) with a limit of detection (LOD, S/N = 3) and the limit of quantification (LOQ, S/N = 10) were 80 cfu mL-1and 267 cfu mL-1, respectively. Furthermore, the fabricated portable immunosensor device showed some distinct features in low cost and visibility, suggesting great potential for rapid and on-site analysis of this bacteria from waters in less developed areas of developing countries.

Abstract
An electrochemical aptasensing method is described for the determination of the biomarker CA125. It combines aptamer recognition and target-triggered strand displacement amplification. Flower like gold nanostructures were electrodeposited on a screen-printed carbon electrode to increase the sensor surface, to assemble more toehold-containing hairpin probe 1 (Hp1), and to improve the accessibility for DNA strands. Under the optimal conditions, this assay has a linear response in the 0.05 to 50 ng•mL-1 CA125 concentration range, with a low detection limit of 5.0 pg•mL-1. This method is specific and stable. It was successfully applied to the detection of CA125 in spiked biological samples, with recoveries between 82.5% and 104.1%. Graphical abstract.
