[PMID: 37299629 DOI: 10.3390/nano13111726] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2023] [Revised: 05/22/2023] [Accepted: 05/23/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play important roles in organisms and are closely related to various physiological and pathological processes. Due to the short lifetime and easy transformation of ROS, the determination of ROS content in biosystem has always been a challenging task. Chemiluminescence (CL) analysis has been widely used in the detection of ROS due to its advantages of high sensitivity, good selectivity and no background signal, among which nanomaterial-related CL probes are rapidly developing. In this review, the roles of nanomaterials in CL systems are summarized, mainly including their roles as catalysts, emitters, and carriers. The nanomaterial-based CL probes for biosensing and bioimaging of ROS developed in the past five years are reviewed. We expect that this review will provide guidance for the design and development of nanomaterial-based CL probes and facilitate the wider application of CL analysis in ROS sensing and imaging in biological systems.

First bioelectronic immunoplatform for quantitative secretomic analysis of total and metastasis-driven glycosylated haptoglobin. Anal Bioanal Chem 2022; 415:2045-2057.

Abstract
Abstract
The glycosylation status of proteins is increasingly used as biomarker to improve the reliability in the diagnosis and prognosis of diseases as relevant as cancer. This feeds the need for tools that allow its simple and reliable analysis and are compatible with applicability in the clinic. With this objective in mind, this work reports the first bioelectronic immunoplatforms described to date for the determination of glycosylated haptoglobin (Hp) and the simultaneous determination of total and glycosylated Hp. The bioelectronic immunoplatform is based on the implementation of non-competitive bioassays using two different antibodies or an antibody and a lectin on the surface of commercial magnetic microcarriers. The resulting bioconjugates are labeled with the horseradish peroxidase (HRP) enzyme, and after their magnetic capture on disposable electroplatforms, the amperometric transduction using the H2O2/hydroquinone (HQ) system allows the single or multiple detection. The developed immunoplatform achieves limits of detection (LODs) of 0.07 and 0.46 ng mL−1 for total and glycosylated Hp in buffer solution, respectively. The immunoplatform allows accurate determination using simple and relatively short protocols (approx. 75 min) of total and glycosylated Hp in the secretomes of in vitro–cultured colorectal cancer (CRC) cells with different metastatic potentials, which is not feasible, due to lack of sensitivity, by means of some commercial ELISA kits and Western blot methodology.

Abstract
Chemiluminescence signal amplification (CLSA) is of huge interest because of its sensitive detection in various applications such as food analysis, biomedical diagnosis and environmental monitoring. Due to this, there is a manifold attention to develop rapidly prototyped and miniaturized devices for CLSA. In this context, herein, a novel CLSA approach is demonstrated on a 3D printed microfluidic paper-based analytical device (μPADs), fabricated using Fused deposition modeling (FDM) printing technology. Influence of working temperature, ranging 30 °C-110 °C, on CL signal generation from well-established Luminol/Co+2 - H2O2 reaction was analyzed using a screen-printed flexible heater onto the 3D printed reaction platform. A smartphone-based capturing/detection system provided the amenability for a point-of-care testing system. For the first time, strong and stable CLSA was found with about 255% ± 5% increase in its signal intensity without using any additional external enhancers. The on-site working temperature was directly in proportional to the intensity of CL signal generated from Luminol/Co+2 - H2O2 reaction under optimum conditions, wherein the device had a wide linear range from 50 nM to 1 μM with a detection limit of 35 nM for H2O2 detection. The reliability of the developed amplification method was tested for practicability to detect the concentration of H2O2 in milk as real sample analysis. Overall, such CLSA mechanism in miniaturized μPADs will have strong potential for multiple CL based detection and monitoring application.

Abstract
Bovine mastitis (BM) is the most common inflammatory disease in the dairy sector worldwide, originated from bacterial invasion onto the mammary gland. Early BM detection is crucial for identifying new pathogenic infections within the dairy herd, which can be alleviated by antimicrobial therapy. N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAGase) is a prominent BM inflammatory biomarker secreted onto the blood circulation upon pathogenesis and then released into milk, capable of separating healthy quarters from subclinical and clinical BM cases. Herein, we report on a sensitive differentiation assay of BM severity based on enhanced fluorescence emission of a conventional NAGase activity assay. The addition of silica-coated zinc oxide nanoparticles induces non-radiative energy transfer to the lysosomal reaction products, thus leading to enhanced fluorescence (above 3-fold). Various milk qualities within the entire inflammatory spectrum were evaluated by the modified fluorescence assay with respect to non-infected milk. The amplified emission values differentiate between two predominant BM causative pathogens (Streptococcus dysgalactiae and Escherichia coli) at various somatic cell counts. In general, the presented concept offers an efficient, simple, cost-effective fluorescence signal augmentation for mastitis identification, thus offering means to diagnose the severity of the associated disease.

Abstract
A weak CL emission was initiated by peroxynitrous acid (PA) produced by the interaction of nitrite with hydrogen peroxide in sulphuric acid solution. In the presence of nitrogen doped carbon dots (NCDs), the CL intensity was enhanced significantly. The CL mechanism of the NCDs-PA system was studied using the CL spectrum, FL spectrum and the effect of radical scavengers. The NCDs-PA CL system was developed for the determination of 2-naphthol (2-NAP) based on its inhibition effect. The reduced CL intensity was proportional to the concentration of 2-NAP in the range from 0.3 to 20.0 μM and the detection limit was 48.0 nM. This method had been successfully applied to determine 2-NAP in environmental water samples with recoveries of 99.5-102.8%.

Abstract
Bovine mastitis (BM) is a prominent inflammatory disease affecting the dairy industry worldwide, originated by pathogenic agent invasion onto the mammary gland. Early detection of new BM cases is of high importance for infection control within the herd. Conventional analytical techniques lack the ability to detect BM-predicting biomarkers, used as analytical indicators for health status evaluation, in real time or outside the laboratory boundaries. Herein, we describe a biosensing platform for label-free detection and identification of BM onset through targeting N-acetyl-β-d-glucosaminidase (NAGase) for potential evidence-based therapy. The lysosomal activity in dissimilar milk qualities was monitored by a gelatin-functionalized porous Si Fabry-Pérot interferometer, while estimating the biochemical reaction precipitating products within the nanostructure. The optical response was proportional to the inherent NAGase concentration found in real milk samples, influenced by two dominant BM causative pathogens (i.e., Escherichia coli and Streptococcus dysgalactiae) at various somatic cell counts. Quantitative analysis of NAGase levels within the entire inflammatory spectrum (healthy, subclinical, and clinical BM) was obtained within the range of 1.0-4.2 μM/min (enzymatic activity per volume unit), while presenting a detection limit of 0.51 μM/min. The optical performances correspond with standardized biochemical activity assay in dissimilar milk qualities. Overall, the presented sensing concept exhibits the potential of BM-predicting biomarker detection using a simple and portable experimental setup for convenient early biodiagnostics and health status evaluation.

Abstract
Lysozyme aptamer-functionalized magnetic alginate hydrogel was prepared for separation and enrichment of lysozyme. Luminol-labeled aptamer was used as a signal tag, and the signal tag was adsorbed on magnetic carboxylated carbon nanotubes based on the π-interaction. When lysozyme was added, the aptamer specifically binds to the lysozyme, causing the signal tag to detach from the magnetic carboxylated carbon nanotubes. When the aptamer/lysozyme complex bound to the complementary single strand of aptamer on the hemin@HKUST-1, lysozyme was released. The released lysozyme can be recombined with the signal tag adsorbed on the magnetic carboxylated carbon nanotube, allowing more signal tag to be dispersed into the solution. Determination of lysozyme was achieved by releasing the luminol-labeled aptamer to generate a chemiluminescence signal at a wavelength of 425 nm. It was proved by experiments that the synthesized hemin@HKUST-1 had a strong catalytic effect on the luminol-NaOH-H2O2 system. The chemiluminescence signal was increased nearly 100 times. The complementary pairing allowed the luminol to be immobilized on the surface of hemin@HKUST-1. The generation and consumption of short-lived reactive oxygen species were concentrated on the surface of the MOFs, which improves the chemiluminescence efficiency. The introduction of hemin@HKUST-1 and DNA solved the defects of chemiluminescence analysis. The chemiluminescence assay was able to detect lysozyme with linear range of 1.05 × 10-6 U∙mg-1 (6.00 × 10-13 mol∙L-1)-1.25 × 10-2 U∙mg-1 (7.14 × 10-9 mol∙L-1); the detection limit was 3.50 × 10-7 U∙mg-1 (2.00 × 10-13 mol∙L-1) (R2 = 0.99). The recovery of lysozyme in spiked saliva samples was 97.4-102.8%. Graphical abstract Schematic presentation of chemiluminescence assay. Lysozyme (Lys) was captured by aptamer-modified magnetic sodium alginate (M-Alg-Apt); Glycine (pH = 2) as eluent for Lys. Luminol-modified Apt (Apt-luminol) as signal tag; magnetic carbon nanotubes (MCNTs) as adsorption matrix; cDNA was complementary to Apt; hemin@HKUST-1 as catalyst.

Abstract
Here, a novel chemiluminescence (CL) immunoassay was fabricated for sensitive determination of tetrabromobisphenol A bis(2-hydroxyethyl) ether (TBBPA-DHEE), one of typical tetrabromobisphenol A derivatives. At the indirectly competitive method, the synthesized PS@hemin@Co2+ was labelled by secondary antibody (Ab2) instead of common natural enzymes, which showed excellent catalysis towards the decomposition of luminol-H2O2 for producing CL signal. Furthermore, the CL signal was greatly amplified owing to the synergistic catalysis of hemin and Co2+ in the detection system. Under the optimized conditions, the established method offered (i) low detection limit (LOD, 0.9 μg/L), which was almost 5 times lower than that using a conventional ELISA with the same antibody; (ii) a good linearity (1.6-14.3 μg/L); (iii) satisfactory accuracy and precision (recoveries, 89.67-125.33%; CV, 2.75-8.37%). The proposed CL immunoassay was applied for analysis of environmental samples from various sources collected from Jiangsu and Zhejiang province, China. And the detected concentrations were ranged in 2.4-3.7 μg/L in environmental waters and 1.8-2.4 ng/g (dry weight, dw) in soil samples, indicating great potential for trace TBBPA-DHEE detection from environmental samples.

Abstract
Bovine mastitis (BM) is a prominent inflammatory disease affecting the dairy industry worldwide, originated by pathogenic agent invasion onto the mammary gland. The early detection of new BM cases is of high importance for infection control within the herd. During inflammation, various biomarkers are released into the blood circulation, which are consequently found in milk. Herein, the lysosomal activity of N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAGase), a predominant BM indicator, was utilized for highly sensitive clinical state differentiation. The latter is achieved by the precise addition of tetraethyl orthosilicate-coated zinc oxide nanostructures (quantum dots or nanoparticles, individually) onto a conventional assay. Enhanced fluorescence due to the nanomaterial accumulative near-field effect is achieved within real milk samples, contaminated with Streptococcus dysgalactiae, favoring quantum dots over nanoparticles (> 7-fold and 3-fold, respectively), thus revealing significant differentiation between various somatic cell counts. The main advantage of the presented sensing concept, besides its clinically relevant concentrations, is the early bio-diagnostic detection of mastitis (subclinical BM) by using a simple and cost-effective experimental setup. Moreover, the assay can be adapted for BM recovery prognosis evaluation, and thus impact on udder health status, producing an alternative means for conventional diagnosis practices.

Abstract
Background Haptoglobin is an acute-phase protein used as predicting diagnostic biomarker both in humans (i.e., diabetes, ovarian cancer, some neurological and cardiovascular disorders) and in animals (e.g., bovine mastitis). The latter is a frequent disease of dairy industry with staggering economical losses upon decreased milk production and increased health care costs. Early stage diagnosis of the associated diseases or inflammation onset is almost impossible by conventional analytical manners. Results The present study demonstrates a simple, rapid, and cost-effective label-free chemiluminescence bioassay based on magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) for sensitive detection of haptoglobin by employing the specific interaction of hemoglobin-modified MNPs. The resulting haptoglobin-hemoglobin complex inhibits the peroxidase-like activity of luminol/H2O2-hemoglobin-MNPs sensing scheme and reduces the chemiluminescence intensities correspondingly to the innate haptoglobin concentrations. Quantitative detection of bovine haptoglobin was obtained within the range of 1 pg mL−1 to 1 µg mL−1, while presenting 0.89 pg mL−1 limit of detection. Moreover, the influence of causative pathogenic bacteria (i.e., Streptococcus dysgalactiae and Escherichia coli) and somatic cell counts (depicting healthy, sub-clinical and clinical mastitis) on the emitted chemiluminescence radiation were established. The presented bioassay quantitative performances correspond with a standardized assay kit in differentiating dissimilar milk qualities. Conclusions Overall, the main advantage of the presented sensing concept is the ability to detect haptoglobin, at clinically relevant concentrations within real milk samples for early bio-diagnostic detection of mastitis and hence adjusting the precise treatment, potentially initiating a positive influence on animals’ individual health and hence on dairy farms economy.

Abstract
Recurrent mastitis events are the major cause of annual revenue losses in the dairy sector resulting in decreased milk yield, escalading treatment costs and increased health risk of the entire herd. Upon udder inflammation, several biomarkers are proportionally secreted to its severity onto the blood circulation and consequently into milk (upon breached blood-milk barrier). N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase activity is widely used mastitis indicator in milk, offering simple means of differentiation between healthy quarters from those with subclinical or clinical severity. Herein, we demonstrate fluorescence signal amplification concept for sensitive clinical status discrimination. Tetraethyl orthosilicate coated zinc oxide quantum dots were employed within the conventional N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase activity assay. Under the experimental conditions, a profound non-radiative energy transfer occurred between quantum nanomaterials onto enzymatic fluorescent products resulting in intensified emission of the latter, over 11-folds, in comparison to nanoparticle-free assay. Overall, the fluorescence intensities were proportionally related to zinc oxide quantum dots surface coverage and concentration, SCC values and influenced by the causing bacteria (i.e., Streptococcus dysgalactiae and Coagulase-negative Staphylococci). Finally, the presented proof-of-concept offers an efficient, simple, cost-effective fluorescence signal amplification for early stage mastitis identification, offering means to diagnose the severity of the associated diseases and hence deducing on animals' clinical status.

Gold Nanoparticle Size-Dependent Enhanced Chemiluminescence for Ultra-Sensitive Haptoglobin Biomarker Detection. Biomolecules 2019; 9:biom9080372. [PMID: 31416293 PMCID: PMC6723178 DOI: 10.3390/biom9080372] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2019] [Revised: 08/13/2019] [Accepted: 08/13/2019] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Bovine mastitis (BM) is a frequent disease in the dairy industry that causes staggering economical losses due to decreased milk production and increased health care costs. Traditionally, BM detection depends on the efficacy and reliability of analytical techniques that measure somatic cell counts (SCC), detect pathogens, and reveal inflammatory status. Herein, we demonstrate the detection of bovine haptoglobin, a well-documented acute phase protein for evaluating BM clinical status, by utilizing hemoglobin-binding capacity within luminol chemiluminescence (CL) system. The resulting haptoglobin–hemoglobin complex reduces the CL signal proportionally to inherent haptoglobin concentrations. Different sizes of cross-linked gold nanoparticles (GNPs) were examined for enhanced CL (eCL) signal amplification, presenting over 30-fold emitted radiation enhancement for optimized size within real milk samples with respect to nanoparticle-free assay. The eCL values were proportionally related to nanoparticle size and content, influenced by SCC and pathogen type (e.g., Escherichia coli and coagulase-negative staphylococci). The optimized bioassay showed a broad linear response (1 pg mL−1–10 µg mL−1) and minute detection limit of 0.19 pg mL−1, while presenting quantitative performance in agreement with commercial ELISA kit. Finally, the resulting optimized eCL concept offers an efficient label-free detection of haptoglobin biomarker, offering means to diagnose the severity of the associated diseases.
