Food Chem 2024; 441:138333. [PMID: 38185050 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.138333] [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: 11/02/2023] [Revised: 12/23/2023] [Accepted: 12/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/09/2024]
Abstract
A sensitive signal-on photoelectrochemical aptasensor for antibiotic determination was constructed based on the energy level matching between ferrocene and CuInS2. P-type CuInS2 microflower was complexed with reduced graphene oxide (CuInS2/rGO) to get photocathode current with good photoelectric conversion efficiency and stability. Then, hairpin DNA (HP) was covalently bonded to the electrode surface. A triple helix DNA (THMS) was used as a molecular switch. After the specific recognition between target and THMS in homogeneous solution, ferrocene labeled probe (Fc-T2) was released. Finally, Fc-T2 was captured by the HP, which leaded the obvious increase of photocurrent for the energy level matching between ferrocene and CuInS2. The increase of the photocurrent signal was proportional to the concentration of target amoxicillin (AMOX), the linear range was 100 fM-100 nM with detection limit of 19.57 fM. Meanwhile, the method has been successfully applied for milk and lake water samples analysis with satisfactory results.

Exonuclease-catalyzed recycling and annular four-footed DNA walking amplification-assisted "on-off-super on" signal transitions for photoelectrochemical biosensing of kanamycin. Biosens Bioelectron 2024; 246:115894.

Abstract
Photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensors have exhibited a promising potential for assays of a large variety of analytes; however, how to realize their low background-based "super on" signal output is still a great challenge. Herein, we report a novel multiple nucleic acid amplification-assisted "on-off-super on" signal transition mechanism for the PEC biosensing of kanamycin antibiotics. The biosensing platform was constructed on a perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic dianhydride-based photoelectrode, and its strong photocurrent could be well inhibited by an anchored ferrocene (Fc)-labeled hairpin DNA to produce a low background signal. Two target biorecognition-triggered exonuclease III-catalytic reactions were adopted to produce an annular four-footed DNA walker (AFW) and a methylene blue (MB)-labeled DNA strand. By using their synergistic effect to release Fc quenchers and simultaneously capture MB sensitizers, a "super on" signal output was realized. As a result, a very wide linear range from 10 fg mL-1 to 10 ng mL-1 and an ultra-low detection limit of 7.8 fg mL-1 were obtained. Meanwhile, the aptamer recognition-based homogeneous reaction and AFW-based multiple nucleic acid amplification effectively simplified the assay manipulation and well ensured the repeatability of the method. The satisfactory sample experiment results indicated its good reliability and accuracy for the antibiotic residue analysis application.

Abstract
Portable and on-site detection of target biomarker is of great significance in early diagnosis of diseases. Herein, we designed a portable smartphone-based PEC immunoassay platform to detect prostate specific antigen (PSA) adopting Co-doped Bi2O2S nanosheets as photoactive materials. The fast photocurrent response under visible light and excellent electrical transport rate invest Co-doped Bi2O2S with the property of being effectively excited even under a weak light source. Therefore, with the incorporation of a carriable flashlight that act as the excitation light source, disposable screen-printed electrodes, a microelectrochemical workstation and a smartphone that served as control center, point-of-care analytical detection of low-abundance small molecule analytes was successfully realized. Specifically, a sandwich-type immunoreaction was performed using alkaline phosphatase labeled secondary antibody as signal indicator. In the presence of PSA, ascorbic acid as generated through a catalytic reaction, resulting in the enhancement of photocurrent intensity. The photocurrent intensity increased linearly with the logarithm of PSA concentrations ranging from 0.2 to 50 ng mL-1 with a detection limit of 71.2 pg mL-1 (S/N = 3). This system provided an effective method for the construction of portable and miniaturized PEC sensing platform for the application of point-of-care health monitoring.

Abstract
Electrochemical aptasensors have been extensively used to quantify food contaminants (e.g., mycotoxin) by using high-affinity aptamer for target recognition. Yet, analytical performance of aptasensors using different aptamers can be varied for the same target. Here, four aptamers with different sequences (i.e., A22, A34, A42, and A45) of patulin (PAT) were selected to estimate sensing behaviors at electrodes with electrochemical (EC) and photoelectrochemical (PEC) assays. Synergistic effect of steric hindrance and electron transfer distance was found to significantly affect EC and PEC response for PAT at aptasensors fabricated with A22, A34, A42, or A45. Eventually, A22 emerged to be the optimal aptamer for aptasensing, despite the highest affinity of A42 to PAT. The A22-based EC-PEC dual-mode ratiometric aptasensor offered a linear range of 50 fg mL-1 - 500 ng mL-1 with a detection limit of 30 fg mL-1 for PAT, and it was applied to apple product (i.e., juice, puree) analysis.

Abstract
The early detection and prognosis of cancers require sensitive and accurate detection methods; with developments in medicine, electrochemical biosensors have been developed that can meet these clinical needs. However, the composition of biological samples represented by serum is complex; when substances undergo non-specific adsorption to an electrode and cause fouling, the sensitivity and accuracy of the electrochemical sensor are affected. In order to reduce the effects of fouling on electrochemical sensors, a variety of anti-fouling materials and methods have been developed, and enormous progress has been made over the past few decades. Herein, the recent advances in anti-fouling materials and strategies for using electrochemical sensors for tumor markers are reviewed; we focus on new anti-fouling methods that separate the immunorecognition and signal readout platforms.

Abstract
The continuous evolution of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), with discovery of multiple mutants, has caused widespread panic and concern worldwide. The rapid antigen detection method via a single ligand recognition, although currently implemented in many countries, remains challenging for mutated antigens. Herein, we present a novel strategy using a dual recognition by two types of targeted ligands, based on photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensing for detection of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. To demonstrate this strategy, the specific antibodies are modified onto the photoactive material with a supported nanostructure, created by loading the Pt nanoparticles onto MoS2 nanosheets (Pt/MoS2) to boost photon-to-electricity conversion efficiency. By subsequent binding of the targeted aptamers to the Au polyhedra, which act as a signal amplifier to suppress PEC photocurrent by competing with the Pt/MoS2 for the absorption of excitation light energy, the dual recognition is successfully achieved. The constructed biosensor not only shows satisfactory stability, high sensitivity, and selectivity, but is effective for test of the pseudovirus of SARS-CoV-2. The work provides useful advance for the development of PEC biosensors for sensitive detection of SARS-CoV-2.

Abstract
Organic photoelectric materials with conjugated electron-rich structures and good biocompatibilities have broad application prospects in biosensors. Herein, we report a promising organic photoelectric multielectron donor nanocomposite for highly sensitive PEC immunoassays. Specifically, the organic multielectron donor nanocomposite (DA-ZnTCPP-g-C3N4) was prepared from dopamine (DA, polyphenol hydroxyl structure substance), zinc tetracarboxylate porphyrin (ZnTCPP, large p-π conjugated heterocyclic compound), and two-dimensional graphene-like nitrogen carbide (g-C3N4) via an amidation reaction. With a multielectron donor structure and photoelectricity, this nanocomposite can achieve sensitization by self-structure without the addition of an electron donor in the test solution. It was utilized to label the carcinoembryonic detection antibody as a immuno-probe (Ab2-DA-ZnTCPP-g-C3N4). Meanwhile, the glassy carbon electrode electrodeposited with gold nanoparticles anchoring the capture antibody was used as a PEC immunomatrix (Ab1/DpAu/GCE). The enhanced PEC current, "signal on", was confirmed by the immunosensor via sandwich immunorecognition of a carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). Under optimal conditions, the as-prepared sensing platform displayed high sensitivity for CEA with a dynamic linear response range from 10 fg·mL-1 to 1 mg·mL-1 and a lower detection limit of 3.6 fg·mL-1. This organic nanocomposite showed good sensitivity and stability in an immunosensing system with a low background. This strategy affords a promising approach for biological applications of organic photoelectric materials.

Abstract
Herein, an efficient and feasible photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensor based on gold nanoparticle-decorated graphitic-like carbon nitride (Au NPs@g-C3N4) with excellent photoelectric performance was designed for the highly sensitive detection of mercury ions (Hg2+) . The proposed Au NPs@g-C3N4 was first modified on the surface of the electrode, which possessed a remarkable photocurrent conversion efficiency and could produce a strong initial photocurrent. Then, the thymine-rich DNA (S1) was immobilized on the surface of the modified electrode via Au-N bonds. Subsequently, 1-hexanethiol (HT) was added to the resultant electrode to block nonspecific binding sites. Finally, the target Hg2+ was incubated on the surface of the modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE). In the presence of target Hg2+, the thymine-Hg2+-thymine (T-Hg2+-T) structure formed due to the selective capture capability of thymine base pairs toward Hg2+, resulting in the significantly decrease of the photocurrent. Thereafter, the proposed PEC biosensor was successfully used for sensitive Hg2+ detection, as it possessed a wide linear range from 1 pM to 1000 nM with a low detection limit of 0.33 pM. Importantly, this study demonstrates a new method of detecting Hg2+ and provides a promising platform for the detection of other heavy metal ions of interest.

Abstract
This work presented a point-of-care (POC) photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensing for the detection of human papillomavirus-16 (HPV-16) on a portable electrochemical detection system by using CRISPR-Cas12a trans-cleaving the G-quadruplex for the biorecognition/amplification and a hollow In2O3-In2S3-modified screen-printed electrode (In2O3-In2S3/SPE) as the photoactive material. G-quadruplexes were capable of biocatalytic precipitation (H2O2-mediated 4-chloro-1-naphthol oxidation) on the In2O3-In2S3/SPE surface, resulting in a weakened photocurrent, but suffered from trans-cleavage when the CRISPR-Cas12a system specifically recognized the analyte. The photocurrent results could be directly observed with the card-sized electrochemical device via a smartphone, which displayed a high-value photocurrent for these positive samples, while a low-value photocurrent for the target-free samples. Such a system exhibited satisfying photocurrent responses toward HPV-16 within a wide working range from 5.0 to 5000 pM and allowed for detection of HPV-16 at a concentration as low as 1.2 pM. The proposed assay provided a smartphone signal readout to enable the rapid screening PEC determination of HPV-16 concentration without sophisticated instruments, thus meeting the requirements of remote areas and resource-limited settings. We envision that combining an efficient biometric PEC sensing platform with a wireless card-sized electrochemical device will enable high-throughput POC diagnostic analysis.

Abstract
A photoactive molecularly imprinted poly(2,5-benzimidazole)-modified vanadium dioxide-cupric tungstate (VO2-CuWO4) as an efficient photosensitive n-n type-II heterojunction thin film was electrochemically deposited on Ti substrate for the selective and robust photoelectrochemical (PEC) bioanalysis of dopamine (DA). The optical absorption of n-VO2/n-CuWO4 type-II heterojunction was capably broadened toward the visible region, which permitted superior light-harvesting and robust carriers generation, separation, and transfer processes significantly enhancing the anodic photocurrent, as confirmed by a series of PEC analyses. Findings revealed that the as-prepared label-free MIP-PEC sensor can quantitatively monitor DA in a linear range of 1 nM to 200 μM with a detection limit of 0.15 nM. This MIP-PEC sensor showed robust selectivity under conditions with high concentrations of interfering substances, which can be recovered in the real samples of urine, cocoa chocolate, and diluted yogurt, indicating its promising potential applications in biological and food samples. This work not only featured the use of photoelectrically active MIP/VO2-CuWO4 for PEC detection of DA, but also provided a new horizon for the design and implementation of functional polymers/metal oxides heterojunction materials in the field of PEC sensors and biosensors.

Abstract
The development of efficient signaling strategies is highly important for photoelectrochemical (PEC) immunoassay. We report here a new and efficient strategy for sensitive PEC immunoassay by tailoring the electrostatic interaction between the photoactive material and the electron donor. The photoelectric conversion of hexametaphosphate (HMP)-capped CdS quantum dots (QDs) in Na2SO3 solution is significantly boosted after Ca2+ incubation. The negative surface charges on CdS@HMP QDs decrease because of the complexation reaction between HMP and Ca2+, and the electrostatic repulsion between CdS@HMP QDs and electron donor (SO32-) becomes weak accordingly, leading to an improved electron-hole separation efficiency. Inspired by the PEC response of CdS@HMP QDs to Ca2+, a novel "signal-on" PEC immunoassay platform is established by employing CaCO3 nanoparticles as labels. By regulating the surface charge of CdS@HMP QDs with in situ-generated Ca2+ from CaCO3 labels, sensitive detection of the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is achieved. The linear detection range is 0.005-50 ng mL-1 and the detection limit is 1 pg mL-1 for CEA detection. Our work not only provides a facile route to tailor the photoelectric conversion but also lays the foundation for sensitive PEC immunoassay by simply regulating the surface charge of photoactive materials.

Abstract
A high initial signal for the sensitive detection of analytes is critical in photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensing systems. As a semiconductor, 3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA) possesses an appropriate optical band gap of 2.5 eV and inherently intense and stable PEC response. When gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) are electrodeposited on the surface of PTCDA to form a Schottky junction (Au NPs/PTCDA), a surprising and satisfactory PEC performance is unfolded before our eyes. Considering the outstanding PEC behaviors of Au NPs/PTCDA and the great quenching effect of gold nanoclusters (Au NCs), the "ON-OFF-ON" PEC sensing platform has been developed for microRNA 1246 (miRNA 1246) detection combined with the cascaded quadratic amplification strategy of the polymerization/nicking reaction and dual-particle 3D DNA roller. The higher initial PEC signals of the system can be acquired by regulating the deposition time for 35 s (-0.2 V), which is derived from the synergetic effect of localized surface plasmon resonance of Au NPs and the formation of a Schottky junction. The dual-particle 3D DNA roller has been designed to guarantee wide walking space, remarkable operation performances, and inhibition of derailment. The proposed biosensor shows a dynamic range from 10 aM to 1 pM at a low detection limit of 3.1 aM and exhibits good analytical behaviors while analyzing miRNA 1246 in healthy human serum samples. This work not only expands the application of organic photoelectric materials in bioanalysis but also provides potential possibility of detecting other biomarkers by choosing appropriate target units.

Abstract
Photoelectrochemical (PEC) immunoassay is a burgeoning and promising bioanalytical method. However, the practical application of PEC still exist some challenges such as the inevitable damage of biomolecules caused by the PEC system and the unsatisfactory sensitivity for biomarkers with low abundance in real sample. To solve the problems, we integrated the cosensitized structure of Ag2S/ZnO nanocomposities as photoelectrode with photogenerated hole-induced chemical redox cycling amplification (CRCA) strategy to develop a split-type PEC immunosensor for cardiac troponin I (cTnI) with high sensitivity. Initially, the immunoreaction was carried out on the 96-well plates in which alkaline phosphatase (ALP) could catalyze ascorbic acid 2-phosphate (AAP) to generate the signal-reporting species ascorbic acid (AA). Subsequently, the AA participated and the tris (2-carboxyethyl) phosphine (TCEP) mediated chemical redox cycling reaction took place on the photoelectrode, thus leading to signal amplification. Under the optimized conditions, the immunosensor demonstrated a detection limit (LOD) of 3.0 × 10-15 g mL-1 with a detection range of 1.0 × 10-14 g mL-1 to 1.0 × 10-9 g mL-1 for cTnI. Impressively, the proposed method could determine the cTnI in human serum samples with high sensitivity and satisfactory accuracy. Considering the virtues of the photoelectrode and the chemical redox cycling strategy, the method would hold great potential for highly sensitive biosensing and bioanalysis.
