Abstract
The precision additive manufacturing and tessellated multitasking out of the structural DNA nanotechnology enable a configurable expression of densified electrochemiluminescent (ECL) complexes, which would streamline the bioconjugation while multiplying signals. Herein, a completely DNA-scaffold ECL "polyploid" was replicated out via the living course of rolling circle amplification. The amplicon carried the aptameric sequences of ZnPPIX/TSPP porphyrin as photoreactive centers that rallied at periodical intervals of the persistent extension into a close-packed nanoflower, ZnPDFI/II. Both microscopies and electrophoresis proved the robust nesting of guests at their deployed gene loci, while multispectral comparisons among cofactor substituents pinpointed the pivotal roles of singlet seclusion and Zn2+-chelation for the sake of intensive ECL irradiation. The adversity-resilient hydrogel texture made lipoidal filmogens as porphyrinic ECL prerequisites to be of no need at all, thus not only simplifying assay flows but also inspiring an in situ labeling plan. Upon bioprocessing optimization, an enriched probe ZnPDFIII was further derived that interpolated the binding motif related to calprotectin as validated by molecular docking and affinity titration. With it being a strongly indicative marker of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a competitive ECL aptasensing strategy was contrived, managing a signal-on and sensitive detection in mild conditions with a subnanogram-per-milliliter limit of detection by 2 orders of magnitude lower than the standard method as well as a comparable accuracy in clinical stool sample testing. Distinct from those conventional chemophysical rebuilding routes, this de novo biosynthetic fusion demonstrated a promising alternative toward ECL-source bioengineering, which may intrigue vibrant explorations of other ECL-shedding fabrics and, accordingly, a new bioanalytic mode downstream.

Effect of divalent cations on electrochemiluminescence of metal-organic frameworks in bioassay. Anal Chim Acta 2023; 1239:340659. [PMID: 36628752 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2022.340659] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2022] [Revised: 11/21/2022] [Accepted: 11/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
The structural characteristics of electrochemiluminescent (ECL) microreticula enabled flexible designs for probing specific molecules. However, bioanalysts paid little attention to the impact of concomitant electrolytic carriers on ECL responsiveness of these grids. Our previous finding confirmed the collisional quenching of ECL radiative secondary building units from polarized Br- and I-. To further address this concern, herein typical cationic commonplaces including Na+, K+, Ca2+, … in buffer plus regular transition metals - their influences upon the ECL performance of a well-defined zinc porphyrin-organic framework (ZnPOF) were inspected in a one-by-one manner. Except for Na+/K+, a dozen of divalent metal chlorides exerted an adverse effect in the form of Stern-Volmer quenching on the ECL brightness, which was illuminated to be cation channeling in open voids of ZnPOFs and bonding with O2-reactive sites as exemplified by the model Ca2+ via systematic compositional investigation. Following this principle, a simplistic Ca2+-sensitive sensor was developed for quantitative evaluation of health-care calcium supplements with high precision. Above all, this work highlighted the non-negligible interference from those Mn + requisites to the susceptible MOF-based ECL, which should be paid extra attention in bioassays and mechanistic analyses.

Abstract
Being synthetic supplements to natural lipids, lipoids now play an increasingly significant role in nanopore sequencing, olfactory sensing, and nanoimpact electrochemistry. Yet, systematic comparisons to sort and screen qualified lipoids are lacking for specific scenario applications. Here, taking the merits of electrochemiluminescence (ECL) in probing biointerfacial events, a new metric was proposed for the evaluation of substrate candidacy in the pool of hyamine bromides (ABs), that are used to cohere with electron-rich porphyrins for deep eutectics-like ECL matrices. Using a state-of-the-art framework emitter, the cocrystalline nanosheet of C70 and zinc meso-tetraphenylporphine (ZnTPP) via simple liquid-liquid interfacial deposition, 6 out of 20 ABs were inspected and identified as not only amenable filmogens but excitonic sensitizers in key terms of ECL strength as well as voltammetric characteristics. Among them, the methyltrioctyl (MTOAB) headgroup stood out; while the ECL activity at ZnTPP-C70@MTOAB was proven to be dictated by ionophoresis across multilamellar lipoidal layers. Thus, target-induced membrane deformation would let coreactant scavengers in to quench ECL, which enabled assays on two less visited bioprocesses regarding (1) the lipid solubility of ipratropium bromide, an aerosol medication for rhinitis treatment; and (2) the resorption of selenosugar as the central metabolite of Se-proteins on kidney glomerular basement barrier. Both resulted in nice membrane-binding measurements with comparable dissociation constants to reported microfluidic ELISA methods. By and large, though still being rudimentary, such parametrization of ECL-able biofilm would set up a basic ECL toolbox for archiving and resourcing multilipoidal even lipid-lipoid combos to handle the realistic (sub)cytomembrane processes in the future.
