Abstract
Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is a popular real-time technique for the measurement of binding affinity and kinetics, and bench-top instruments combine affordability and ease of use with other benefits of the technique. Biomolecular ligands labeled with the 6xHis tag can be immobilized onto sensing surfaces presenting the Ni2+-nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) functional group. While Ni-NTA immobilization offers many advantages, including the ability to regenerate and reuse the sensors, its use can lead to signal variability between experimental replicates. We report here a study of factors contributing to this variability using the Nicoya OpenSPR as a model system and suggest ways to control for those factors, increasing the reproducibility and rigor of the data. Our model ligand/analyte pairs were two ovarian cancer biomarker proteins (MUC16 and HE4) and their corresponding monoclonal antibodies. We observed a broad range of non-specific binding across multiple NTA chips. Experiments run on the same chips had more consistent results in ligand immobilization and analyte binding than experiments run on different chips. Further assessment showed that different chips demonstrated different maximum immobilizations for the same concentration of injected protein. We also show a variety of relationships between ligand immobilization level and analyte response, which we attribute to steric crowding at high ligand concentrations. Using this calibration to inform experimental design, researchers can choose protein concentrations for immobilization corresponding to the linear range of analyte response. We are the first to demonstrate calibration and normalization as a strategy to increase reproducibility and data quality of these chips. Our study assesses a variety of factors affecting chip variability, addressing a gap in knowledge about commercially available sensor chips. Controlling for these factors in the process of experimental design will minimize variability in analyte signal when using these important sensing platforms.

[PMID: 37430747 DOI: 10.3390/s23104831] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2023] [Revised: 05/13/2023] [Accepted: 05/16/2023] [Indexed: 07/12/2023]
Abstract
The Nicoya OpenSPR is a benchtop surface plasmon resonance (SPR) instrument. As with other optical biosensor instruments, it is suitable for the label-free interaction analysis of a diverse set of biomolecules, including proteins, peptides, antibodies, nucleic acids, lipids, viruses, and hormones/cytokines. Supported assays include affinity/kinetics characterization, concentration analysis, yes/no assessment of binding, competition studies, and epitope mapping. OpenSPR exploits localized SPR detection in a benchtop platform and can be connected with an autosampler (XT) to perform automated analysis over an extended time period. In this review article, we provide a comprehensive survey of the 200 peer-reviewed papers published between 2016 and 2022 that use the OpenSPR platform. We highlight the range of biomolecular analytes and interactions that have been investigated using the platform, provide an overview on the most common applications for the instrument, and point out some representative research that highlights the flexibility and utility of the instrument.

Abstract
In this work, a novel, label-free electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor was constructed for the ultrasensitive detection of carbohydrate antigen 15-3 (CA15-3) by the combined use of NiFe2O4@C@CeO2/Au hexahedral microbox and luminol luminophore. The synthesis of the co-reaction accelerator (NiFe2O4@C@CeO2/Au) was related to the calcination of FeNi-based metal-organic framework (MOF), as well as the ingrowth of CeO2 nanoparticles and modification of Au nanoparticles. To be specific, the electrical conductivity will be boosted due to the Au nanoparticles, the synergetic effect generated between CeO2 and calcination FeNi-MOF could offer better activity of oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, the NiFe2O4@C@CeO2/Au hexahedral microbox as a co-reaction accelerator has excellent OER activity and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), thus increasing the ECL intensity of luminol in a neutral medium without other co-reactants such as H2O2. Because of these benefits, the constructed ECL immunosensor was applied to detect CA15-3 as an example under optimum conditions, the designed ECL immunosensor exhibited high-level selectivity and sensitivity for CA15-3 biomarker within a linear response range of 0.01-100 U mL-1 and an ultralow detection limit of 0.545 mU mL-1 (S/N = 3), demonstrating its potentially valuable application in the area of clinical analysis.

Abstract
A biomarker is a physiological observable marker that acts as a stand-in and, in the best-case scenario, forecasts a clinically significant outcome. Diagnostic biomarkers are more convenient and cost-effective than directly measuring the ultimate clinical outcome. Cancer is among the most prominent global health problems and a major cause of morbidity and death globally. Therefore, cancer biomarker assays that are trustworthy, consistent, precise, and verified are desperately needed. Biomarker-based tumor detection holds a lot of promise for improving disease knowledge at the molecular scale and early detection and surveillance. In contrast to conventional approaches, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) allows for the quick and less invasive screening of a variety of circulating indicators, such as circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), microRNA (miRNA), circulating tumor cells (CTCs), lipids, and proteins. With several advantages, the SPR technique is a particularly beneficial choice for the point-of-care identification of biomarkers. As a result, it enables the timely detection of tumor markers, which could be used to track cancer development and suppress the relapse of malignant tumors. This review emphasizes advancements in SPR biosensing technologies for cancer detection.

Abstract
Nowadays, diagnosing early-stage cancers can be vital for saving patients and dramatically decreases mortality rates. Therefore, specificity and sensitivity in the detection of cancer antigens should be elaborately ensured. Some early-stage cancers can be diagnosed via detecting the cancer antigen CA-125, such as ovarian cancer, and required treatments can be applied more efficiently. Thus, detection of CA-125 by employing various optical or electrochemical biosensors is a preliminary and crucial step to treating cancers. In this review, a diverse range of optical and electrochemical means of detecting CA-125 are reviewed. Furthermore, an applicable comparison of their performance and sensitivity is provided, several commercial detection kits are investigated, and their applications are compared and discussed to determine whether they are applicable and accurate enough.

Abstract
Graphdiyne's (GDY's) outstanding features have made it a novel 2D nanomaterial and a great candidate for electronic gadgets and optoelectronic devices, and it has opened new opportunities for the development of highly sensitive electronic and optical detection methods as well. Here, we testified a non-covalent grafting strategy in which GDY serves as a charge carrier layer and a bioaffinity substrate to immobilize biological receptors on GDY-based field-effect transistor (FET) devices. Firm non-covalent anchoring of biological molecules via pyrene groups and electrostatic interactions in addition to preserved electrical properties of GDY endows it with features of an ultrasensitive and stable detection mechanism. With emerging new forms and extending the subtypes of the already existing fatal diseases, genetic and biological knowledge demands more details. In this regard, we constructed simple yet efficient platforms using GDY-based FET devices in order to detect different kinds of biological molecules that threaten human health. The resulted data showed that the proposed non-covalent bioaffinity assays in GDY-based FET devices could be considered reliable strategies for novel label-free biosensing platforms, which still reach a high on/off ratio of over 104. The limits of detection of the FET devices to detect DNA strands, the CA19-9 antigen, microRNA-155, the CA15-3 antigen, and the COVID-19 antigen were 0.2 aM, 0.04 pU mL-1, 0.11 aM, 0.043 pU mL-1, and 0.003 fg mL-1, respectively, in the linear ranges of 1 aM to 1 pM, 1 pU mL-1 to 0.1 μU mL-1, 1 aM to 1 pM, 1 pU mL-1 to 10 μU mL-1, and 1 fg mL-1 to 10 ng mL-1, respectively. Finally, the extraordinary performance of these label-free FET biosensors with low detection limits, high sensitivity and selectivity, capable of being miniaturized, and implantability for in vivo analysis makes them a great candidate in disease diagnostics and point-of-care testing.

Abstract
Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) can track molecular interactions in real time, and is a powerful as well as widely used biological and chemical sensing technique. Among the different SPR-based sensing applications, aptamer-based SPR biosensors have attracted significant attention because of their simplicity, feasibility, and low cost for target detection. Continuous developments in SPR aptasensing research have led to the emergence of abundant technical and design concepts. To understand the recent advances in SPR for biosensing, this paper reviews SPR-based research from the last seven years based on different sensing-type strategies and sub-directions.

Abstract
Developing a highly sensitive immunoassay for tumor biomarkers is particularly important in bioanalysis and early disease diagnosis. In this work, a simple one-pot solvothermal method was developed for controllable synthesis of well-dispersed PtCo alloyed nanodendrites (PtCo NDs) by using l-carnosine as the co-structure-directing agent. The PtCo NDs had a large specific surface area and provided abundant active sites available for electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Based on the highly enhanced currents of the ORR, a novel label-free electrochemical immunosensor was fabricated for highly sensitive assay of carbohydrate antigen 15-3 (CA15-3). The sensor showed a wide linear range of 0.1-200 U mL-1 and a low limit of detection (LOD) down to 0.0114 U mL-1 (S/N = 3), in turn exploring its application to diluted human serum samples with satisfactory results. This study provides a feasible platform for monitoring other tumor markers in clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
In this work, we describe an innovative methodology based on combined surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and electrochemical responses (eSPR) in the same immunoassay for screening CA 15-3 cancer biomarker with high sensitivity (and selectivity), in a very simple, label-free, accurate, and fully automated manner. Detection was achieved by performing two simple steps. In the first step, direct SPR was used to monitor CA 15-3 interaction with surface immobilized antibody. Two linear response ranges were obtained and the detection limit achieved is poor (LOD of 21 U mL-1). However, in the second detection step, electrochemical measurements at the SPR gold surface were performed to measure the decrease of redox probe peak current upon antigen-antibody interaction, providing a suitable amplification strategy to lower detection levels of CA 15-3 (LOD of 0.0998 U mL-1), without the need of additional complex and/or expensive amplification steps to enhance the sensitivity. Moreover, selectivity studies were performed against other common cancer biomarkers and the results showed that the eSPR immunosensor is selective for the CA 15-3 protein. Finally, the clinical applicability of the developed eSPR biosensing methodology was successfully applied to detect CA 15-3 in human serum samples at clinically relevant levels due to the high sensitivity of electrochemical readout. The same concept may be further extended to other proteins of interest.

Abstract
Phase-sensitive surface plasmon resonance biosensors are known for their high sensitivity. One of the technology bottle-necks of such sensors is that the phase sensorgram, when measured at fixed angle set-up, can lead to low reproducibility as the signal conveys multiple data. Leveraging the sensitivity, while securing satisfying reproducibility, is therefore is an underdiscussed key issue. One potential solution is to map the phase sensorgram into refractive index unit by the use of sensor calibration data, via a simple non-linear fit. However, basic fitting functions poorly portray the asymmetric phase curve. On the other hand, multi-layer reflectivity calculation based on the Fresnel coefficient can be employed for a precise mapping function. This numerical approach however lacks the explicit mathematical formulation to be used in an optimization process. To this end, we aim to provide a first methodology for the issue, where mapping functions are constructed from Bayesian optimized multi-layer model of the experimental data. The challenge of using multi-layer model as optimization trial function is addressed by meta-modeling via segmented polynomial approximation. A visualization approach is proposed for assessment of the goodness-of-the-fit on the optimized model. Using metastatic cancer exosome sensing, we demonstrate how the present work paves the way toward better plasmonic sensors.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2021; 403:123953. [PMID: 33264997 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2020.123953] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2020] [Revised: 08/24/2020] [Accepted: 09/05/2020] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
In situ monitoring of the interactions and properties of pollutant molecules at the aptasensor interface is being a very hot and interesting topic in environmental analysis since its charming molecule level understanding of the mechanism of environmental biosensors. Attenuated total reflection surface enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy (ATR-SEIRAS) provides a unique and convenient technique for the in situ analysis, but is not easy for small molecules. Herein, an ATR-SEIRAS platform has been successfully developed to in situ monitor the selective adsorption mechanism of small pollutant molecule atrazine (ATZ) on the aptasensor interface by characteristic N‒H peak of ATZ for the first time. Based on the constructed ATR-SEIRAS platform, a thermodynamics model is established for the selective adsorption of ATZ on the aptasensor interface, described with Langmuir adsorption with a dissociation constant of 1.1 nM. The adsorption kinetics parameters are further obtained with a binding rate constant of 8.08×105 M-1 s-1. A promising and feasible platform has therefore successfully provided for the study of the selective sensing mechanism of small pollutant molecules on biosensors interfaces, further broadening the application of ATR-SEIRAS technology in the field of small pollutant molecules.

Abstract
The human sweet taste receptor (T1R2) monomer-a member of the G-protein coupled receptor family that detects a wide variety of chemically and structurally diverse sweet tasting molecules, is known to pose a significant threat to human health. Protein that lack crystal structure is a challenge in structure-based protein design. This study focused on the interaction of the T1R2 monomer with rebaudioside A (Reb-A), a steviol glycoside with potential use as a natural sweetener using in-silico and biosensing methods. Herein, homology modelling, docking studies, and molecular dynamics simulations were applied to elucidate the interaction between Reb-A and the T1R2 monomer. In addition, the electrochemical sensing of the immobilised T1R2-Reb-A complex with zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) and graphene oxide (GO) were assessed by testing the performance of multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) as an adsorbent experimentally. Results indicate a strong interaction between Reb-A and the T1R2 receptor, revealing the stabilizing interaction of the amino acids with the Reb-A by hydrogen bonds with the hydroxyl groups of the glucose moieties, along with a significant amount of hydrophobic interactions. Moreover, the presence of the MWCNT as an anchor confirms the adsorption strength of the T1R2-Reb-A complex onto the GO nanocomposite and supported with electrochemical measurements. Overall, this study could serve as a cornerstone in the development of electrochemical immunosensor for the detection of Reb-A, with applications in the food industry.

Abstract
Mortality level is worsening the situation worldwide thru blood diseases and greatly jeopardizes the human health with poor diagnostics. Due to the lack of successful generation of early diagnosis, the survival rate is currently lower. To overcome the present hurdle, new diagnostic methods have been choreographed for blood disease biomarkers analyses with the conjunction of ultra-small ideal gold nanohybrids. Gold-hybrids hold varieties of unique features, such as high biocompatibility, increased surface-to-volume ratio, less-toxicity, ease in electron transfer and have a greater localized surface plasmon resonance. Gold-nanocomposites can be physically hybrid on the sensor surface and functionalize with the biomolecules using appropriate chemical conjugations. Revolutionizing biosensor platform can be prominently linked for the nanocomposite applications in the current research on medical diagnosis. This review encloses the new developments in diagnosing blood biomarkers by utilizing the gold-nanohybrids. Further, the current state-of-the-art and the future envision with digital monitoring for facile telediagnosis were narrated.

Abstract
Human mucin-1 (MUC1) has attracted considerable attention owing to its overexpression in diverse malignancies. Here, for the rapid and efficient detection of MUC1, we present a SERS-colorimetric dual-mode aptasensor, by integrating SERS probes with magnetic separation, which has several distinctive advantages. Using such a dual-mode aptasensor, the colorimetric functionality is distinguishable by the naked eye, providing a fast and straightforward screening ability for the detection of MUC1. Moreover, SERS-based detection greatly improves the detection sensitivity, reaching a limit of detection of 0.1 U/mL. In addition, the combination of SERS and colorimetric method holds the advantages of these two techniques and thereby increases the reliability and efficiency of MUC1 detection. On the one hand, the magnetic nanobeads functionalized with MUC1-specific aptamer were utilized as an efficient capturing substrate for separating MUC1 from biological complex medium. On the other hand, the gold-silver core-shell nanoparticles modified with Raman reporters and the complementary sequences of MUC1 were used as the signal indicator, which could simultaneously report the SERS signal and colorimetric change. This strategy can achieve a good detection range and realize MUC1 analysis in real patients' samples. Thus, we anticipate that this kind of aptasensor would provide promising potential applications in the diagnosis and prognosis of cancers. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
Background Pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A and -A2 (PAPP-A and -A2) are principally expressed in placental trophoblasts and play a critical role in the regulation of fetal and placental growth. PAPP-A2 shares 45% amino acid similarity with PAPP-A. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of real-time detection of PAPP-A and PAPP-A2 using a novel surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor based on graphene oxide (GO). Methods Traditional SPR and GO-based SPR chips were fabricated to measure PAPP-A and PAPP-A2 concentrations. We compared SPR response curves of PAPP-A and PAPP-A2 between traditional SPR and GO-SPR biosensors. We also performed interference tests and specificity analyses among PAPP-A, PAPP-A2, and mixed interference proteins. Results The time to detect PAPP-A and PAPP-A2 was about 150 seconds with both traditional SPR and GO-SPR biosensors. Approximately double SPR angle shifts were noted with the GO-SPR biosensor compared to the traditional SPR biosensor at a PAPP-A and PAPP-A2 concentration of 5 μg/mL. The limit of detection of the GO-SPR biosensor was as low as 0.5 ng/mL for both PAPP-A and PAPP-A2. Interference testing revealed that almost all of the protein bonded on the GO-SPR biosensor with anti-PAPP-A from the mixture of proteins was PAPP-A, and that almost no other proteins were captured except for PAPP-A2. However, the SPR signal of PAPP-A2 (5.75 mdeg) was much smaller than that of PAPP-A (13.76 mdeg). Similar results were noted with anti-PAPP-A2, where almost all of the protein bonded on the GO-SPR biosensor was PAPP-A2. The SPR signal of PAPP-A (5.17 mdeg) was much smaller than that of PAPP-A2 (13.94 mdeg). Conclusion The GO-SPR biosensor could distinguish PAPP-A and PAPP-A2 from various mixed interference proteins with high sensitivity and specificity. It could potentially be used to measure PAPP-A and PAPP-A2 in clinical blood samples during pregnancy.

Abstract
We report results of the studies relating to the fabrication of a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) based label-free immunosensor for real-time monitoring of endothelin-1 (ET-1), a colon cancer biomarker. A gold disk modified with a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (11-MUA) was functionalised via covalent immobilization of monoclonal anti-ET-1 antibodies using EDC-NHS (1-(3-(dimethylamine)-propyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride, N-hydroxy succinimide) chemistry. This immunosensing platform (ethanolamine/anti-ET-1/11-MUA/Au) was characterized via atomic force microscopy (AFM), contact angle (CA) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopic techniques. The fabricated SPR electrode was further used to detect ET-1 in the broad concentration range 2-100 pg mL-1, with a detection limit of 0.30 pg mL-1 and remarkable sensitivity of 2.18 mo pg-1mL. The adsorption mechanism was studied using monophasic model and the values of association (ka) and dissociation (kd) constants for anti-ET-1 and ET-1 binding were calculated to be 4.4 ± 0.4 × 105 M-1 s-1 and 2.04 ± 0.0003 × 10-3 s-1, respectively. The results obtained via analysis of serum samples of colorectal cancer patients were found to be in good agreement with those obtained from enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) technique. Further, electrochemical studies were performed to prove the efficacy of the fabricated platform as a point of care device for the detection of ET-1.

Abstract
Metallo-oxide (MO)-based bioinorganic nanocomposites promise unique structures, physicochemical properties, and novel biochemical functionalities, and within the past decade, investment in research on materials such as ZnO, TiO2, SiO2, and GeO2 has significantly increased. Besides traditional approaches, the synthesis, shaping, structural patterning, and postprocessing chemical functionalization of the materials surface is inspired by strategies which mimic processes in nature. Would such materials deliver new technologies? Answering this question requires the merging of historical knowledge and current research from different fields of science. Practically, we need an effective defragmentation of the research area. From our perspective, the superficial accounting of material properties, chemistry of the surfaces, and the behavior of biomolecules next to such surfaces is a problem. This is particularly of concern when we wish to bridge between technologies in vitro and biotechnologies in vivo. Further, besides the potential practical technological efficiency and advantages such materials might exhibit, we have to consider the wider long-term implications of material stability and toxicity. In this contribution, we present a critical review of recent advances in the chemistry and engineering of MO-based biocomposites, highlighting the role of interactions at the interface and the techniques by which these can be studied. At the end of the article, we outline the challenges which hamper progress in research and extrapolate to developing and promising directions including additive manufacturing and synthetic biology that could benefit from molecular level understanding of interactions occurring between inanimate (abiotic) and living (biotic) materials.

Abstract
The current work explores the excitation of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) on a one dimensional (1D) silver nano-grating device, simulated on glass substrate, which can sense a very small change in the refractive index of an analyte adjacent to it. The most recent modeling technique finite element analysis is applied in this work by using a COMSOL RF module. The models of 1D grating devices of different slit widths with fixed periodicity and film thickness are simulated. The data is collected and then used to study higher refractive index unit per nanometer (RIU/nm) as well as the effect of the widths of the slits on the RIU. A number of investigations are done by the simulated data, like a dip in the transmission spectra of p-polarized light. This dip is due to SPP resonance with the variation of slit width. Furthermore, the most fascinating part of the research is the COMSOL modeling that provides an opportunity to look into factors affecting higher RIU/nm, while visualizing the cross-sectional view of the grating device and strong electric field enhancement at the surface of the metallic device. When the slit width is almost equal to half of the periodicity of the grating device, SPP resonance increases and it is at maximum for the slit width equal to two-thirds of the periodicity, because the coupling efficiency is at maximum.

Abstract
An early on-time detection of breast cancer can effectively affect the outcome of the treatment. Here, we developed an ultrasensitive, simple and reliable immunosensor to detect the lowest alteration of CA 15-3, the standard biomarker of breast cancer patients. The proposed immunosensor was achieved by modification of gold electrode by streptavidin to immobilize the biotinylated anti-CA 15-3 monoclonal antibody (mAb). Bovine serum albumin was used to prevent nonspecific binding. To improve the sensitivity of modified immunosensor, the sandwich signal enhancer consisting of streptavidin-coated magnetic beads conjugated with biotinylated horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and anti-CA 15-3 biotinylated mAb was applied. The electrochemical measurements were obtained in the presence of hydroquinone as a redox agent and H2O2 as the activating agent of HRP. Under optimized condition and using square wave voltammetry, the lower limit of quantification was obtained as 15 × 10-6 U/mL and the linear CA 15-3 concentration range was 50-15 × 10-6 U/mL. While showing significant stability, the immunosensor displayed an excellent sensitivity and specificity for the detection of CA 15-3 even in the human serum as compared to the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) as a gold standard method. Based on our findings, the engineered immunosensor is proposed as a robust diagnostic tool for the clinical determination of CA 15-3 and other cancer biomarkers.

Abstract
In this work, we have developed for the first time a carboxylic group riched graphene oxide based disposable electrochemical immunosensor for cancer biomarker detection using methylene blue (MB). The developed immunosensor is highly sensitive for detection of biomarker Mucin1 (MUC1) in human serum samples. Development of this disposable electrochemical immunosensor was premeditated by applying specific monoclonal antibodies against MUC1. In this method, we explored highly conductive surface of carboxylic group (-COOH-) rich graphene oxide (GO) on screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCE). This modified GO-COOH-SPCE was employed for the detection of MUC1 protein based on the reaction with methylene blue (MB) redox probe using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) technique. Developed immunosensor exhibited good detection range for MUC1 with excellent linearity (0.1 U/mL- 2 U/mL), with a limit of detection of 0.04 U/mL. Upon potential application of developed biosensor, good recoveries were recorded in the range of 96-96.67% with % R.S.D 4.2. Analytical performance of the developed immunosensor assures the applicability in clinical diagnostic applications.

Abstract
An electrochemical immunosensor employs antibodies as capture and detection means to produce electrical charges for the quantitative analysis of target molecules. This sensor type can be utilized as a miniaturized device for the detection of point-of-care testing (POCT). Achieving high-performance analysis regarding sensitivity has been one of the key issues with developing this type of biosensor system. Many modern nanotechnology efforts allowed for the development of innovative electrochemical biosensors with high sensitivity by employing various nanomaterials that facilitate the electron transfer and carrying capacity of signal tracers in combination with surface modification and bioconjugation techniques. In this review, we introduce novel nanomaterials (e.g., carbon nanotube, graphene, indium tin oxide, nanowire and metallic nanoparticles) in order to construct a high-performance electrode. Also, we describe how to increase the number of signal tracers by employing nanomaterials as carriers and making the polymeric enzyme complex associated with redox cycling for signal amplification. The pros and cons of each method are considered throughout this review. We expect that these reviewed strategies for signal enhancement will be applied to the next versions of lateral-flow paper chromatography and microfluidic immunosensor, which are considered the most practical POCT biosensor platforms.

Abstract
Using glucose oxidase (GOx) and α-Zr(IV) phosphate nanoplates (α-ZrP) as a model system, a generally applicable approach to control enzyme-solid interactions via chemical modification of amino acid side chains of the enzyme is demonstrated. Net charge on GOx was systematically tuned by appending different amounts of polyamine to the protein surface to produce chemically modified GOx(n), where n is the net charge on the enzyme after the modification and ranged from -62 to +95 electrostatic units in the system. The binding of GOx(n) with α-ZrP nanosheets was studied by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) as well as by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy. Pristine GOx showed no affinity for the α-ZrP nanosheets, but GOx(n) where n ≥ -20 showed binding affinities exceeding (2.1 ± 0.6) × 106 M-1, resulting from the charge modification of the enzyme. A plot of GOx(n) charge vs Gibbs free energy of binding (ΔG) for n = +20 to n = +65 indicated an overall increase in favorable interaction between GOx(n) and α-ZrP nanosheets. However, ΔG is less dependent on the net charge for n > +45, as evidenced by the decrease in the slope as charge increased further. All modified enzyme samples and enzyme/α-ZrP complexes retained a significant amount of folding structure (examined by circular dichroism) as well as enzymatic activities. Thus, strong control over enzyme-nanosheet interactions via modulating the net charge of enzymes may find potential applications in biosensing and biocatalysis.

Abstract
The lacrimal gland is an important organ responsible for regulating tear synthesis and secretion. The major work of lacrimal gland (LG) is to lubricate the ocular surface and maintain the health of eyes. Functional deterioration of the lacrimal gland happens because of aging, diseases, or therapeutic complications, but without effective treatments till now. The LG originates from the epithelium of ocular surface and develops by branching morphogenesis. To regenerate functional LGs, it is required to explore the way of recapitulating and facilitating the organ to establish the intricate and ramified structure. In this study, we proposed an approach using chitosan biomaterials to create a biomimetic environment beneficial to the branching structure formation of developing LG. The morphogenetic effect of chitosan was specific and optimized to promote LG branching. With chitosan, increase in temporal expression and local concentration of endogenous HGF-related molecules creates an environment around the emerging tip of LG epithelia. By efficiently enhancing downstream signaling of HGF pathways, the cellular activities and behaviors were activated to contribute to LG branching morphogenesis. The morphogenetic effect of chitosan was abolished by either ligand or receptor deprivation, or inhibition of downstream signaling transduction. Our results elucidated the underlying mechanism accounting for chitosan morphogenetic effects on LG, and also proposed promising approaches with chitosan to assist tissue structure formation of the LG.

Abstract
Circulating tumour cells (CTCs) are active participants in the metastasis process and account for ∼90% of all cancer deaths. As CTCs are admixed with a very large amount of erythrocytes, leukocytes, and platelets in blood, CTCs are very rare, making their isolation, capture, and detection a major technological challenge. Microfluidic technologies have opened-up new opportunities for the screening of blood samples and the detection of CTCs or other important cancer biomarker-proteins. In this study, the authors have reviewed the most recent developments in microfluidic devices for cells/biomarkers manipulation and detection, focusing their attention on immunomagnetic-affinity-based devices, dielectrophoresis-based devices, surface-plasmon-resonance microfluidic sensors, and quantum-dots-based sensors.

Abstract
Breast cancer is highly prevalent in females and accounts for second highest number of deaths, worldwide. Cumbersome, expensive and time consuming detection techniques presently available for detection of breast cancer potentiates the need for development of novel, specific and ultrasensitive devices. Biosensors are the promising and selective detection devices which hold immense potential as point of care (POC) tools. Present review comprehensively scrutinizes various breast cancer biosensors developed so far and their technical evaluation with respect to efficiency and potency of selected bioreceptors and biotransducers. Use of glycoproteins, DNA biomarkers, micro-RNA, circulatory tumor cells (CTC) and some potential biomarkers are introduced briefly. The review also discusses various strategies used in signal amplification such as nanomaterials, redox mediators, p19 protein, duplex specific nucleases (DSN) and redox cycling.

Abstract
This work demonstrates the excellent potential of carboxyl-functionalized graphene oxide (GO-COOH) composites to form biocompatible surfaces on sensing films for use in surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based immunoaffinity biosensors. Carboxyl-functionalization of graphene carbon can modulate its visible spectrum, and can therefore be used to improve and control the plasmonic coupling mechanism. The binding properties of the molecules between a sensing film and a protein were elucidated at various flow rates of those molecules. The bio-specific binding interaction among the molecules was investigated by performing an antigen and antibody affinity immunoassay. The results thus obtained revealed that the overall affinity binding value, KA, of the Au/GO-COOH chip can be significantly enhanced by up to ∼5.15 times that of the Au/GO chip. With respect to the shifts of the SPR angles of the chips, the affinity immunoassay interaction at a BSA concentration of 1μg/ml for an Au/GO-COOH chip, an Au/GO chip and a traditional SPR chip are 35.5m°, 9.128m° and 8.816m°, respectively. The enhancement of the antigen-antibody interaction of the Au/GO-COOH chip cause this chip to become four times as sensitive to the SPR angle shift and to have the lowest antibody detection limit of 0.01pg/ml. These results indicate the potential of the chip in detecting specific proteins, and the development of real-time in vivo blood analysis and diagnosis based on cancer tumor markers.

Abstract
Polycytosine DNA strands are often found among natural sequences, including the ends of telomeres, centromeres, and introns or in the regulatory regions of genes. A characteristic feature of oligonucleotides that are rich in cytosine (C-rich) is their ability to associate under acidic conditions to form a tetraplex i-motif consisting of two parallel stranded cytosine-hemiprotonated cytosine (C·C+) base-paired duplexes that are mutually intercalated in an antiparallel orientation. Nanotechnology has been exploiting the advantages of i-motif pH-dependent formation to fabricate nanomachines, nanoswitches, electrodes and intelligent nanosurfaces or nanomaterials. Although a few reviews regarding the structure, properties and applications of i-motifs have been published, this review focuses on recently developed biosensors (e.g., to detect pH, glucose or silver ions) and drug-delivery biomaterials. Furthermore, we have included examples of sensors based on parallel C-rich triplexes and silver nanoclusters (AgNCs) fabricated on cytosine-rich DNA strands. The potential diagnostic and therapeutic applications of this type of material are discussed.
