Abstract
Inaccurate or cumbersome clinical pathogen diagnosis between Gram-positive bacteria (G+) and Gram-negative (G-) bacteria lead to delayed clinical therapeutic interventions. Microelectrode-based electrochemical sensors exhibit the significant advantages of rapid response and minimal sample consumption, but the loading capacity and discrimination precision are weak. Herein, we develop reversible fusion-fission MXene-based fiber microelectrodes for G+/G- bacteria analysis. During the fissuring process, the spatial utilization, loading capacity, sensitivity, and selectivity of microelectrodes were maximized, and polymyxin B and vancomycin were assembled for G+/G- identification. The surface-tension-driven reversible fusion facilitated its reusability. A deep learning model was further applied for the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) identification in diverse ratio concentrations of G+ and G- of (1:100-100:1) with higher accuracy (>93%) and gave predictable detection results for unknown samples. Meanwhile, the as-proposed sensing platform reached higher sensitivity toward E. coli (24.3 CFU/mL) and S. aureus (37.2 CFU/mL) in 20 min. The as-proposed platform provides valuable insights for bacterium discrimination and quantification.

Abstract
The development of artificial receptors has great significance in measurement science and technology. The need for a robust version of natural receptors is getting increased attention because the cost of natural receptors is still high along with storage difficulties. Aptamers, imprinted polymers, and nanozymes are some of the matured artificial receptors in analytical chemistry. Recently, a new direction has been discovered by organic chemists, who can synthesize robust, activity-based, self-immolative organic molecules that have artificial receptor properties for the targeted analytes. Specifically designed trigger moieties implant selectivity and sensitivity. These latent electrochemical redox substrates are highly stable, mass-producible, inexpensive, and eco-friendly. Combining redox substrates with the merits of electrochemical techniques is a good opportunity to establish a new direction in artificial receptors. This Review provides an overview of electrochemical redox substrate design, anatomy, benefits, and biosensing potential. A proper understanding of molecular design can lead to the development of a library of novel self-immolative redox molecules that would have huge implications for measurement science and technology.

Abstract
The critical performance factors such as selectivity, sensitivity, operational and storage stability, and response time of electrochemical biosensors are governed mainly by the function of their key component, the bioelectrode. Suitable design and fabrication strategies of the bioelectrode interface are essential for realizing the requisite performance of the biosensors for their practical utility. A multifaceted attempt to achieve this goal is visible from the vast literature exploring effective strategies for preparing, immobilizing, and stabilizing biorecognition elements on the electrode surface and efficient transduction of biochemical signals into electrical ones (i.e., current, voltage, and impedance) through the bioelectrode interface with the aid of advanced materials and techniques. The commercial success of biosensors in modern society is also increasingly influenced by their size (and hence portability), multiplexing capability, and coupling in the interface of the wireless communication technology, which facilitates quick data transfer and linked decision-making processes in real-time in different areas such as healthcare, agriculture, food, and environmental applications. Therefore, fabrication of the bioelectrode involves careful selection and control of several parameters, including biorecognition elements, electrode materials, shape and size of the electrode, detection principles, and various fabrication strategies, including microscale and printing technologies. This review discusses recent trends in bioelectrode designs and fabrications for developing electrochemical biosensors. The discussions have been delineated into the types of biorecognition elements and their immobilization strategies, signal transduction approaches, commonly used advanced materials for electrode fabrication and techniques for fabricating the bioelectrodes, and device integration with modern electronic communication technology for developing electrochemical biosensors of commercial interest.

Abstract
Paper-based analytical devices (PADs) are powerful platforms for point-of-need testing since they are inexpensive devices fabricated in different shapes and miniaturized sizes, ensuring better portability. Additionally, the readout and detection systems can be accomplished with portable devices, allying with the features of both systems. These devices have been introduced as promising analytical platforms to meet critical demands involving rapid, reliable, and simple testing. They have been applied to monitor species related to environmental, health, and food issues. Herein, an outline of chronological events involving PADs is first reported. This work also introduces insights into fundamental parameters to engineer new analytical platforms, including the paper type and device operation. The discussions involve the main analytical techniques used as detection systems, such as colorimetry, fluorescence, and electrochemistry. It also showed recent advances involving PADs, especially combining optical and electrochemical detection into a single device. Dual/combined detection systems can overcome individual barriers of the analytical techniques, making possible simultaneous determinations, or enhancing the devices' sensitivity and/or selectivity. In addition, this review reports on distance-based detection, which is also considered a trend in analytical chemistry. Distance-based detection offers instrument-free analyses and avoids user interpretation errors, which are outstanding features for analyses at the point of need, especially for resource-limited regions. Finally, this review provides a critical overview of the practical specifications of the recent analytical platforms involving PADs, demonstrating their challenges. Therefore, this work can be a highly useful reference for new research and innovation.

Abstract
In this work, aptamers against E. coli with better performance were obtained via cell systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (cell-SELEX) and dissociation constants (Kd) of aptamers were estimated to range from 133.87 to 199.44 nM. Furthermore, the selected aptamer was employed for label-free colorimetric detection of E. coli using gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with peroxidase-like activity to catalyze the oxidation of tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to produce color development. This colorimetric apta-assay started with an aptamer-bacteria binding step, and the concentration of residual aptamers after binding depended on the amount of target bacteria. Then, the amount of separated residual aptamers determined the degree of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)-inhibited catalytic activity of AuNPs, which resulted in a color change from dark blue to light blue. Owing to the excellent peroxidase activity of AuNPs, they could emit strong visible color intensity in less than 1 minute to improve visual detection sensitivity. Under optimized conditions, the sensitivity of detection was 5 × 103 CFU mL-1 visually and 75 CFU mL-1 using the UV-vis spectrum with a linear range from 5 × 102 to 1 × 106 CFU mL-1. And it had shown a good recovery rate in real samples of water, juice and milk compared with classical counting methods.

Abstract
As an easily disposable substrate with a microporous texture, paper is a well-suited, generic substrate to build analytical devices for studying bacteria. Using a multi-pass lasing process, cellulose-based laser-induced graphene (cLIG) with a sheet resistance of 43.7 ± 2.3 Ωsq-1 is developed and utilized in the fabrication of low-cost and environmentally-friendly paper sensor arrays. Two case studies with Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli demonstrate the practicality of the cLIG sensors for the electrochemical analysis of bacteria. The first study measures the time-dependent profile of phenazines released from both planktonic (up to 60 h) and on-chip-grown (up to 22 h) Pseudomonas aeruginosa cultures. While similarities do exist, marked differences in phenazine production are seen with cells grown directly on cLIG compared to the planktonic culture. Moreover, in planktonic cultures, pyocyanin levels increase early on and plateau around 20 h, while optical density measurements increase monotonically over the duration of testing. The second study monitors the viability and metabolic activity of Escherichia coli using a resazurin-based electrochemical assay. These results demonstrate the utility of cLIG paper sensors as an inexpensive and versatile platform for monitoring bacteria and could enable new opportunities in high-throughput antibiotic susceptibility testing, ecological studies, and biofilm studies.

Abstract
The detection of pathogenic bacteria is essential to prevent and treat infections and to provide food security. Current gold-standard detection techniques, such as culture-based assays and polymerase chain reaction, are time-consuming and require centralized laboratories. Therefore, efforts have focused on developing point-of-care devices that are fast, cheap, portable and do not require specialized training. Paper-based analytical devices meet these criteria and are particularly suitable to deployment in low-resource settings. In this Review, we highlight paper-based analytical devices with substantial point-of-care applicability for bacteria detection and discuss challenges and opportunities for future development.

Abstract
Nowadays, foodborne pathogens and other food contaminants are among the major contributors to human illnesses and even deaths worldwide. There is a growing need for improvements in food safety globally. However, it is a challenge to detect and identify these harmful analytes in a rapid, sensitive, portable, and user-friendly manner. Recently, researchers have paid attention to the development of paper-based electrochemical biosensors due to their features and promising potential for food safety analysis. The use of paper in electrochemical biosensors offers several advantages such as device miniaturization, low sample consumption, inexpensive mass production, capillary force-driven fluid flow, and capability to store reagents within the pores of the paper substrate. Various paper-based electrochemical biosensors have been developed to enable the detection of foodborne pathogens and other contaminants that pose health hazards to humans. In this review, we discussed several aspects of the biosensors including different device designs (e.g., 2D and 3D devices), fabrication techniques, and electrode modification approaches that are often optimized to generate measurable signals for sensitive detection of analytes. The utilization of different nanomaterials for the modification of electrode surface to improve the detection of analytes via enzyme-, antigen/antibody-, DNA-, aptamer-, and cell-based bioassays is also described. Next, we discussed the current applications of the sensors to detect food contaminants such as foodborne pathogens, pesticides, veterinary drug residues, allergens, and heavy metals. Most of the electrochemical paper analytical devices (e-PADs) reviewed are small and portable, and therefore are suitable for field applications. Lastly, e-PADs are an excellent platform for food safety analysis owing to their user-friendliness, low cost, sensitivity, and a high potential for customization to meet certain analytical needs.

Abstract
Rapid and accurate sensing of β-galactosidase (β-gal) activity is particularly critical for the early detection of many diseases and has become a topic of interest in recent years. However, most traditional probes for β-gal sensing often suffer from the disadvantages of narrow dynamic range, low reaction efficiency and are only employed with either colorimetric or fluorescence sensing. Furthermore, β-galactosidase sensing based assay for efficient detection and antibiotic resistance analysis of Escherichia coli (E.coli) is not available. Here, an enzyme-induced probe assay was reported for dual sensitive fluorescence and colorimetric measurement of β-gal activity, and was further employed for detection of Escherichia coli and their antibiotic resistance analysis. The DCM-βgal probe was virtually non-emissive in aqueous solution, while it could be activated by β-gal to produce bright emission. Under optimized conditions, DCM-βgal displayed high sensitivity, selectivity and rapid response to β-gal with a low detection limit of 1.5 × 10−3 U ml−1. Importantly, this assay was successfully applied to sensitive detection of E. coli cells with a fast detection process within 5 h and a low detection concentration of 1 × 103 CFU ml−1. Furthermore, the enzyme-activatable assay was also successfully applied for high throughput E. coli antibiotic resistance analysis. The DCM-βgal strategy is applied for the first time on the detection of E. coli cells and their antibiotic resistance analysis. It is provided with the advantages of high selectively, a simple operation, low cost and rapid detection. The detection platform can also be extended to analyze the level of β-gal in other types of cells or biological samples. Overall, the simple, effective and dual-readout assay holds promise for efficient sensing of β-gal activity and provides a potential tool for E. coli detection and their antibiotic resistance analysis.

Abstract
Bacterial infection poses severe threats to public health, and early rapid detection of the pathogen is critical for controlling bacterial infectious diseases. Current methods are commonly labor intensive, time consuming or dependent on lab-based equipment. In this study, we proposed a novel and practical method for bacterial detection based on smartphones using the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) phenomena of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The proposed smartphone-based SPR sensing method is achieved by utilizing color development that arises from the change in interparticle distance of AuNPs induced by bacterial lysate. The pictures of bacteria/AuNPs color development were captured, and their color signals were acquired through a commercial smartphone. The proposed method has a detection range between 2.44 × 105 and 1.25 × 108 cfu mL−1 and a detection limit of 8.81 × 104 cfu mL−1. Furthermore, this method has acceptable recoveries (between 85.7% and 95.4%) when measuring spiked real waters. Combining smartphone-based signal reading with AuNP-dependent color development also offers the following advantages: easy-to-use, real-time detection, free of complex equipment and low cost. In view of these features, this sensing platform would have widespread applications in the fields of medical, food, and environmental sciences. In this study, we propose a novel and practical method for bacterial detection based on smartphones using the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) phenomena of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs).![]()

Abstract
β-Glucuronidase (β-GLU), a kind of hydrolase, is widely distributed in mammalian tissues, body fluids, and microbiota. Abnormal changes of β-GLU activity are often correlated with the occurrence of diseases and deterioration of water quality. Therefore, detection of β-GLU activity is of great significance in biomedicine and environmental health such as cancer diagnosis and water monitoring. However, the conventional β-GLU activity assay suffers from the limitations of low sensitivity, poor accuracy, and complex procedure. With the development of analytical chemistry, many advances have been made in the detection of β-GLU activity in recent years. The sensors for β-GLU activity detection which have the advantages of rapid and reliable detection have been attracting increased attentions. In this paper, the principles, performances, and limitations of these β-GLU sensors, including colorimetric sensing, fluorescent sensing, electrochemical sensing for the determination of β-GLU activity, have been summarized and discussed. Moreover, the challenges and research trends of β-GLU activity assay are proposed.

Abstract
Foods contaminated by foodborne pathogens have always been a great threat to human life. Herein, we constructed an electrochemical immunosensor for Salmonella detection by using a Fe3O4@graphene modified electrode. Because of the excellent electrical conductivity and mechanical stability of graphene and the large specific surface area of Fe3O4, the Fe3O4@graphene nanocomposite exhibits an excellent electrical signal, which greatly increased the sensitivity of the immunosensor. Gold nanoparticles were deposited on Fe3O4@graphene nanocomposite by electrochemical technology for the immobilization of the antibody. Cyclic voltammetry was selected to electrochemically characterize the construction process of immunosensors. The microstructure and morphology of related nanocomposites were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy. Under optimized experimental conditions, a good linear relationship was achieved in the Salmonella concentration range of 2.4 × 102 to 2.4 × 107 cfu/mL, and the limit of detection of the immunosensor was 2.4 × 102 cfu/mL. Additionally, the constructed immunosensor exhibited acceptable selectivity, reproducibility, and stability and provides a new reference for detecting pathogenic bacteria in milk.

Abstract
Recently, the β-galactosidase assay has become a key component in the development of assays and biosensors for the detection of enterobacteria and E. coli in water quality monitoring. The assay has often performed below its maximum potential, mainly due to a poor choice of conditions. In this study we establish a set of optimal conditions and provide a rough estimate of how departure from optimal values reduces the output of the assay potentially decreasing its sensitivity. We have established that maximum response for detecting low cell concentrations requires an induction of the samples using IPTG at a concentration of 0.2 mM during 180 min. Permeabilization of the samples is mandatory as lack of it results in an almost 60% reduction in assay output. The choice of enzyme substrate is critical as different substrates yield products with different extinction coefficients or fluorescence yields. The concentration of substrate used must be high enough (around 3 to 4 times Km) to ensure that the activity measured is not substrate limited. Finally, as the color/fluorescence of the reaction products is highly dependent on pH, care must be taken to ensure that pH at the time of reading is high enough to provide maximum signal.

Abstract
Electroactive bacteria produce or consume electrical current by moving electrons to and from extracellular acceptors and donors. This specialized process, known as extracellular electron transfer, relies on pathways composed of redox active proteins and biomolecules and has enabled technologies ranging from harvesting energy on the sea floor, to chemical sensing, to carbon capture. Harnessing and controlling extracellular electron transfer pathways using bioengineering and synthetic biology promises to heighten the limits of established technologies and open doors to new possibilities. In this review, we provide an overview of recent advancements in genetic tools for manipulating native electroactive bacteria to control extracellular electron transfer. After reviewing electron transfer pathways in natively electroactive organisms, we examine lessons learned from the introduction of extracellular electron transfer pathways into Escherichia coli. We conclude by presenting challenges to future efforts and give examples of opportunities to bioengineer microbes for electrochemical applications.

Abstract
Over the last few years, the microfluidics phenomenon coupled with the Internet of Things (IoT) using innovative nano-functional materials has been recognized as a sustainable and economical tool for point-of-care testing (POCT) of various pathogens influencing human health. The sensors based on these phenomena aim to be designed for cost-effectiveness, make it handy, environment-friendly, and get an accurate, easy, and rapid response. Considering the burgeoning importance of analytical devices in the healthcare domain, this review paper is based on the gist of sensing aspects of the microfabricated paper-based analytical devices (μPADs). The article discusses the various used design methodologies and fabrication approaches and elucidates the recently reported surface modification strategies, detection mechanisms viz., colorimetric, electrochemical, fluorescence, electrochemiluminescence, etc. In a nutshell, this article summarizes the state-of-the-art research work carried out over the nano functionalized paper-based analytical devices and associated challenges/solutions in the point of care testing domain.

Abstract
In this study, Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) was introduced to detect the concentration of live bacteria for the first time depending on the redox reaction between CCK-8 solution and dehydrogenase. CCK-8 solution can be reduced to form water soluble orange-yellow formazan by the dehydrogenase present in bacterial cells, and the concentration of live bacteria is proportional to the absorbance value of formazan at 450 nm. Based on this principle, Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli were chosen as the model bacteria. The optimal detection conditions were investigated and a good linear relationship was obtained in the concentration range from 2.600 × 102 to 1.160 × 109 CFU mL-1 with a linear equation of Y = 0.06305 log10 X-0.1153 (X in CFU mL-1, R2 = 0.9747) for S. aureus and 9.750 × 102 to 6.000 × 108 CFU mL-1 with a linear equation of Y = 0.06122 log10 X-0.1358 (X in CFU mL-1, R2 = 0.9958) for E. coli. The CCK-8 based viable bacteria detection method can be completed within 2 h with a wide bacterial detection concentration range. Satisfactory results were obtained when applied to an actual sample analysis and there is a good consistency between the proposed CCK-8 based method and the traditional plate counting method. More importantly, this method can realize the one-time detection of a large number of samples with high sensitivity, which suggests its great potential in high-throughput bacterial detection.

Abstract
Regulatory authorities require analytical methods for bacteria detection to analyze large sample volumes (typically 100 mL). Currently only the Membrane Filtration and the Most Probable Number assays analyze such large volumes, while other assays for bacteria detection (ELISA, lateral flow assays, etc.) typically analyze volumes 1000 times smaller. This study describes flow-through direct immunoassays (FTDI), a new methodology for the targeted detection of bacteria in liquid samples of theoretically any volume. Flow-through direct immunoassays are performed in fluid-permeable microwells (e.g., wells of a filter well plate) that have a membrane on their bottom where the bacteria are trapped before their detection using a direct immunoassay. Two versions of FTDI assays for the detection of E. coli in 10 mL of sample were developed. A rapid FTDI assay that can be completed in less than 2.5 h can detect E. coli bacteria in levels down to 17 CFU/mL, and an ultrasensitive FTDI assay that employs an additional bacteria culturing step to boost the sensitivity can detect E. coli bacteria in levels lower than 1 CFU/mL in less than 5.5 h. All the steps of the assays, including the immunoassay steps, the culturing step, and the analytical signal measurement step are performed inside the well plate to decrease the chance of contamination and ensure a safe, easy process for the user. The assays were assessed and validated in tap water, river water, and apple juice samples, and the results suggests that the assays are robust, precise, and accurate. When the assays are performed in 96-well filter plates, a filter well plate vacuum manifold and a multichannel peristaltic pump are also used, so multiple samples can be analyzed in parallel to allow high-throughput analysis of samples.

Abstract
This study presents a paper-based thin-layer optical cuvette for absorption spectroscopy with a pneumatically driven pump for the introduction of an aqueous sample. The three major components, a sample reservoir, an open-channel as an optical path and a pneumatic pump, are patterned in polypropylene paper using an electronic cutting machine. When sealed with transparent tape, the patterned paper serves as the side walls of the paper-based cuvette with an integrated pneumatic pump. Due to the reduced pressure inside the open-channel caused by the depression of the pump with a finger, aqueous samples spotted onto the reservoir are introduced into the open-channel of the paper-based cuvette. We demonstrated that the paper-based cuvettes are compatible with conventional spectrophotometers for absorption spectroscopic measurements and capable of quantifying the concentrations of various colored dyes in aqueous samples.

Abstract
Organophosphate (OP) pesticides cause hundreds of illnesses and deaths annually. Unfortunately, exposures are often detected by monitoring degradation products in blood and urine, with few effective methods for detection and remediation at the point of dispersal. We have developed an innovative strategy to remediate these compounds: an engineered microbial technology for the targeted detection and destruction of OP pesticides. This system is based upon microbial electrochemistry using two engineered strains. The strains are combined such that the first microbe (E. coli) degrades the pesticide, while the second (S. oneidensis) generates current in response to the degradation product without requiring external electrochemical stimulus or labels. This cellular technology is unique in that the E. coli serves only as an inert scaffold for enzymes to degrade OPs, circumventing a fundamental requirement of coculture design: maintaining the viability of two microbial strains simultaneously. With this platform, we can detect OP degradation products at submicromolar levels, outperforming reported colorimetric and fluorescence sensors. Importantly, this approach affords a modular, adaptable strategy that can be expanded to additional environmental contaminants.

Abstract
A bacteria-capturing platform is a critical function of accurate, quantitative, and sensitive identification of bacterial pathogens for potential usage in the detection of foodborne diseases. Despite the development of various nanostructures and their surface chemical modification strategies, relative to the principal physical contact propagation of bacterial infections, mechanically robust and nanostructured platforms that are available to capture bacteria remain a significant problem. Here, a three-dimensional (3D) hierarchically structured polyaniline nanoweb film is developed for the efficient capture of bacterial pathogens by hand-touching. This unique nanostructure ensures sufficient mechanical resistance when exposed to compression and shear forces and facilitates the 3D interfacial interactions between bacterial extracellular organelles and polyaniline surfaces. The bacterial pathogens (Escherichia coli O157:H7, Salmonella enteritidis, and Staphylococcus aureus) are efficiently captured through finger-touching, as verified by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis. Moreover, the real-time PCR results of finger-touched cells on a 3D nanoweb film show a highly sensitive detection of bacteria, which is similar to those of the real-time PCR using cultured cells without the capturing step without any interfering of fluorescence signal and structural deformation during thermal cycling.

Abstract
Water-borne pathogens are mostly generated due to poor sanitation, industrial effluents, and sewage sludge, leading to a significant increase in mortality rate. To prevent this, we need a simple, user-friendly, and rapid on-site detection tool of pathogens, i.e., a biosensor. As contaminated water mainly contains (80%) coliform bacteria, of which Escherichia coli is the major species, we have developed a screen-printed paper-based, label-free biosensor for the detection of E. coli in water. A nanoarchitectured graphene oxide (GO), as a fast electron-transfer flatland, was deposited on the screen-printed graphene (G) on a hydrophobic paper, followed by the immobilization of lectin Concanavalin A (ConA) as a biorecognition element for a GGO_ConA-biosensing electrode. The electrochemical characterization of GGO_ConA shows fast electron transfer with a calculated electroactive surface area of 0.16 cm2. The biosensor performance was tested in the sludge water and beach water (real sample) as an analyte using the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) technique. The charge-transfer resistance (Rct) of GGO_ConA increases linearly with the bacterial concentration in the range of 10-108 CFU mL-1 with an estimated limit of detection (LOD) of 10 CFU mL-1, which indicates the ultrasensitivity of our biosensor, with 100 times more sensitivity than previous studies. Our reported biosensor, being cost-effective, eco-friendly, and ultrasensitive, may serve greatly as a portable monitoring kit for checking water-borne bacterial contamination.

Abstract
Versatile sensing matrixes are essential for the development of enzyme-immobilized optical biosensors. A novel three-dimensional titanium dioxide nanotubes/alginate hydrogel scaffold is proposed for the detection of sweat biomarkers, lactate, and glucose in artificial sweat. Hydrothermally synthesized titanium dioxide nanotubes were introduced to the alginate polymeric matrix, followed by cross-linking nanocomposite with dicationic calcium ions to fabricate the scaffold platform. Rapid colorimetric detection (blue color optical signal) was carried out for both lactate and glucose biomarkers in artificial sweat at 4 and 6 min, respectively. The superhydrophilicity and the capillarity of the synthesized titanium dioxide nanotubes, when incorporated into the alginate matrix, facilitate the rapid transfer of the artificial sweat components throughout the sensor scaffold, decreasing the detection times. Moreover, the scaffold was integrated on a cellulose paper to demonstrate the adaptability of the material to other matrixes, obtaining fast and homogeneous colorimetric detection of lactate and glucose in the paper substrate when image analysis was performed. The properties of this new composite provide new avenues in the development of paper-based sensor devices. The biocompatibility, the efficient immobilization of biological enzymes/colorimetric assays, and the quick optical signal readout behavior of the titanium dioxide nanotubes/alginate hydrogel scaffolds provide a prospective opportunity for integration into wearable devices.

Abstract
Protamine, a guanidinium rich polymer, is proposed as a universal bioreceptor for bacteria, towards rapid and handheld bacteria detection from complex environmental water samples without the need for specific antibodies or primers. Escherichia coli K12, Salmonella Typhimurium, and Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) were assayed, representing gram-negative, gram-positive, rod- and round-shaped bacteria. Samples and the protamine conjugated fluorescent particles were sequentially loaded to the paper microfluidic chips and flowed through the channels spontaneously via capillary action. The particles were aggregated via protamine-bacteria membrane interactions and unbound particles were rinsed via capillary action. A low-cost smartphone fluorescence microscope was designed, fabricated, and imaged the paper channels. A unique image processing algorithm isolated only the aggregated particles to detect all three bacteria (p < 0.05) with a detection limit of 101-102 CFU/mL. Protamine did not induce any particle aggregation with a model protein, algae, and virus. Successful bacteria detection was also demonstrated with environmental field water samples. Total assay time was < 10 min with neither extraction nor enrichment steps. In summary, a guanidinium-rich polymer showed a promise as a universal bioreceptor for bacteria and can be used on a paper microfluidic chip and smartphone quantification towards rapid and handheld detection.

Abstract
Simple and visual quantitative detection of foodborne pathogens can effectively reduce the outbreaks of foodborne diseases. Herein, we developed a simple and sensitive quantum dot (QD)-based paper device for visual and quantitative detection of Escherichia coli (E. coli) O157:H7 based on immunomagnetic separation and nanoparticle dissolution-triggered signal amplification. In this study, E. coli O157:H7 was magnetically separated and labeled with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), and the AgNP labels can be converted into millions of Ag ions, which subsequently quench the fluorescence of QDs in the paper strip, which along with the readout can be visualized and quantified by the change in length of fluorescent quenched band. Owing to the high capture efficiency and effective signal amplification, as low as 500 cfu mL-1 of E. coli O157:H7 could be easily detected by naked eyes. Furthermore, this novel platform was successfully applied to detect E. coli O157:H7 in spiked milk samples with good accuracy, indicating its potential in the detection of foodborne pathogens in real samples.

Abstract
With the rise in outbreaks of pathogenic bacteria in both food and water resulting in an increased instance of infection, there is a growing public health problem in both developed and developing countries. In this increasing threat the most effective method for control and prevention is rapid and cost-effective detection. Research has shifted in recent years towards the development of rapid and on-site assays for the detection of these kinds of bacteria. However, there are still some limitations in the implementation of these assays in the field. This article discusses the current on-site detection methods. Current scope of advancements and limitations in the development or use of these on-site technologies for food and waterborne bacterial detection is evaluated in this study. With the continued development of these technologies, on-site detection will continue to impact many areas of public health. As these methods continue to improve and diversify further, on-site detection could become more widely implemented in food and water analysis.

Abstract
Skin-interfaced wearable electronics can find a broad spectrum of applications in healthcare, human-machine interface, robotics, and others. The state-of-the-art wearable electronics usually suffer from costly and complex fabrication procedures and nonbiodegradable polymer substrates. Paper, comprising entangled micro- or nano-scale cellulose fibers, is compatible with scalable fabrication techniques and emerges as a sustainable, inexpensive, disposable, and biocompatible substrate for wearable electronics. Given various attractive properties (e.g., breathability, flexibility, biocompatibility, and biodegradability) and rich tunability of surface chemistry and porous structures, paper offers many exciting opportunities for wearable electronics. In this review, we first introduce the intriguing properties of paper-based wearable electronics and strategies for cellulose modifications to satisfy specific demands. We then overview the applications of paper-based devices in biosensing, energy storage and generation, optoelectronics, soft actuators, and several others. Finally, we discuss some challenges that need to be addressed before practical uses and wide implementation of paper-based wearable electronics.

Effective Diagnosis of Foot-And-Mouth Disease Virus (FMDV) Serotypes O and A Based on Optical and Electrochemical Dual-Modal Detection. Biomolecules 2021; 11:biom11060841.

Abstract
Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) is a highly contagious disease that affects cloven-hoofed animals. The traditional diagnostic methods for FMDV have several drawbacks such as cross-reactivity, low sensitivity, and low selectivity. To overcome these drawbacks, we present an optical and electrochemical dual-modal approach for the specific detection of FMDV serotypes O and A by utilizing a magnetic nanoparticle labeling technique with resorufin β-d-glucopyranoside (res-β-glc) and β-glucosidase (β-glc), without the use of typical lateral flow assay or polymerase chain reaction. FMDV serotypes O and A were reacted with pan-FMDV antibodies that recognize all seven FMDV serotypes (O, A, C, Asia 1, SAT 1, SAT 2, and SAT 3). The antigen–antibody complex was then immobilized on magnetic nanoparticles and reacted with β-glc-conjugated FMDV type O or type A antibodies. Subsequently, the addition of res-β-glc resulted in the release of fluorescent resorufin and glucose owing to catalytic hydrolysis by β-glc. The detection limit of fluorescent signals using a fluorescence spectrophotometer was estimated to be log(6.7) and log(5.9) copies/mL for FMDV type O and A, respectively, while that of electrochemical signals using a glucometer was estimated to be log(6.9) and log(6.1) copies/mL for FMDV type O and A, respectively. Compared with a commercially available lateral flow assay diagnostic kit for immunochromatographic detection of FMDV type O and A, this dual-modal detection platform offers approximately four-fold greater sensitivity. This highly sensitive and accurate dual-modal detection method can be used for effective disease diagnosis and treatment, and will find application in the early-stage diagnosis of viral diseases and next-generation diagnostic platforms.

Abstract
Bacteria identification has predominantly been conducted using specific bioreceptors such as antibodies or nucleic acid sequences. This approach may be inappropriate for environmental monitoring when the user does not know the target bacterial species and for screening complex water samples with many unknown bacterial species. In this work, we investigate the supervised machine learning of the bacteria-particle aggregation pattern induced by the peptide sets identified from the biofilm-bacteria interface. Each peptide is covalently conjugated to polystyrene particles and loaded together with bacterial suspensions onto paper microfluidic chips. Each peptide interacts with bacterial species to a different extent, leading to varying sizes of particle aggregation. This aggregation changes the surface tension and viscosity of the liquid flowing through the paper pores, altering the flow velocity at different extents. A smartphone camera captures this flow velocity without being affected by ambient and environmental conditions, towards a low-cost, rapid, and field-ready assay. A collection of such flow velocity data generates a unique fingerprinting profile for each bacterial species. Support vector machine is utilized to classify the species. At optimized conditions, the training model can predict the species at 93.3% accuracy out of five bacteria: Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella Typhimurium, Enterococcus faecium, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Flow rates are monitored for less than 6 s and the sample-to-answer assay time is less than 10 min. The demonstrated method can open a new way of analyzing complex biological and environmental samples in a biomimetic manner with machine learning classification.

Abstract
Bacterial infections are a major threat to human health, exacerbated by increasing antibiotic resistance. These infections can result in tremendous morbidity and mortality, emphasizing the need to identify and treat pathogenic bacteria quickly and effectively. Recent developments in detection methods have focused on electrochemical, optical, and mass-based biosensors. Advances in these systems include implementing multifunctional materials, microfluidic sampling, and portable data-processing to improve sensitivity, specificity, and ease of operation. Concurrently, advances in antibacterial treatment have largely focused on targeted and responsive delivery for both antibiotics and antibiotic alternatives. Antibiotic alternatives described here include repurposed drugs, antimicrobial peptides and polymers, nucleic acids, small molecules, living systems, and bacteriophages. Finally, closed-loop therapies are combining advances in the fields of both detection and treatment.

Abstract
Screen-printed technology has helped considerably to the development of portable electrochemical sensors since it provides miniaturized but robust and user-friendly electrodes. Moreover, this technology allows to obtain very versatile transducers, not only regarding their design, but also their ease of modification. Therefore, in the last decades, the use of screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) has exponentially increased, with ceramic as the main substrate. However, with the growing interest in the use of cheap and widely available materials as the basis of analytical devices, paper or other low-cost flat materials have become common substrates for SPEs. Thus, in this revision, a comprehensive overview on paper-based SPEs used for analytical proposes is provided. A great variety of designs is reported, together with several examples to illustrate the main applications.

Abstract
With the increasing prevalence of growing population, aging and chronic diseases continuously rising healthcare costs, the healthcare system is undergoing a vital transformation from the traditional hospital-centered system to an individual-centered system. Since the 20th century, wearable sensors are becoming widespread in healthcare and biomedical monitoring systems, empowering continuous measurement of critical biomarkers for monitoring of the diseased condition and health, medical diagnostics and evaluation in biological fluids like saliva, blood, and sweat. Over the past few decades, the developments have been focused on electrochemical and optical biosensors, along with advances with the non-invasive monitoring of biomarkers, bacteria and hormones, etc. Wearable devices have evolved gradually with a mix of multiplexed biosensing, microfluidic sampling and transport systems integrated with flexible materials and body attachments for improved wearability and simplicity. These wearables hold promise and are capable of a higher understanding of the correlations between analyte concentrations within the blood or non-invasive biofluids and feedback to the patient, which is significantly important in timely diagnosis, treatment, and control of medical conditions. However, cohort validation studies and performance evaluation of wearable biosensors are needed to underpin their clinical acceptance. In the present review, we discuss the importance, features, types of wearables, challenges and applications of wearable devices for biological fluids for the prevention of diseased conditions and real-time monitoring of human health. Herein, we summarize the various wearable devices that are developed for healthcare monitoring and their future potential has been discussed in detail.

Abstract
This study is focused on identifying novel epithelial markers in circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) through the development of a dual sandwich-type electrochemical paper-based immunosensor for Claudin 7 and CD81 determination, as well as its validation in breast cancer (BC) patients. This immunosensor allows for rapid, sensitive, and label-free detection of these two relevant BC biomarkers. Under optimum conditions, the limit of detection for Claudin 7 was 0.4 pg mL-1, with a wide linear range of 2 to 1000 pg mL-1, while for CD81, the limit of detection was 3 pg mL-1, with a wide linear range of 0.01 to 10 ng mL-1. Finally, we validated Claudin 7 and CD81 determination in EVs from 60 BC patients and 20 healthy volunteers, reporting higher diagnostic accuracy than the one observed with classical diagnostic markers. This analysis provides a low-cost, specific, versatile, and user-friendly strategy as a robust and reliable tool for early BC diagnosis.

Abstract
There is a growing demand for rapid and sensitive detection approaches for pathogenic bacteria that can be applied by non-specialists in non-laboratory field settings. Here, the detection of the typical E. coli enzyme β-glucuronidase using a chitosan-based sensing hydrogel-coated paper sensor and the detailed analysis of the reaction kinetics, as detected by a smartphone camera, is reported. The chromogenic reporter unit affords an intense blue color in a two-step reaction, which was analyzed using a modified Michaelis-Menten approach. This generalizable approach can be used to determine the limit of detection and comprises an invaluable tool to characterize the performance of lab-in-a-phone type approaches. For the particular system analyzed, the ratio of reaction rate and equilibrium constants of the enzyme-substrate complex are 0.3 and 0.9 pM-1h-1 for β-glucuronidase in phosphate buffered saline and lysogeny broth, respectively. The minimal degree of substrate conversion for detection of the indigo pigment formed during the reaction is 0.15, while the minimal time required for detection in this particular system is ~2 h at an enzyme concentration of 100 nM. Therefore, this approach is applicable for quantitative lab-in-a-phone based point of care detection systems that are based on enzymatic substrate conversion via bacterial enzymes.
