Abstract
Multiplex biosensors are highly sought-after tools in disease diagnosis. This technique involves the simultaneous sensing of multiple biomarkers, whose levels and ratios can provide a more comprehensive assessment of disease conditions compared to single biomarker detection. In most diseases like cancer due to its complexity, several biomarkers are involved in their occurrence. On the other hand, a single biomarker may be implicated in various diseases. Multiplex sensing employs various techniques, such as optical, electrochemical, and electrochemiluminescence methods. This comprehensive review focuses on optical multiplex sensing techniques, including surface plasmon resonance, localized surface plasmon resonance, fluorescence resonance energy transfer, chemiluminescence, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, and photonic crystal sensors. The review delves into their mechanisms, materials utilized, and strategies for biomarker detection.

Abstract
Multiplex detection can enhance diagnostic precision and improve diagnostic efficiency, providing important assistance for epidemiological investigation and epidemic prevention. There is a great need for multi-detection sensing platforms to accurately diagnose diseases. Herein, we reported a μPAD-based chemiluminescence (CL) assay for ultrasensitive multiplex detection of AIV biomarkers, based on three DNAzyme/Lum/PEI/CaCO3. Three time-resolved CL signals were sequentially generated with detection limits of 0.32, 0.34, and 0.29 pM for H1N1, H7N9, and H5N1, respectively, and with excellent selectivity against interfering DNA. The recovery test in human serum displayed satisfactory analysis capabilities for complex biological samples. The μPAD-based CL assay achieved multiplex detection within 70 s, with a high time resolution of 20 s. The proposed strategy has the advantages of low cost, high sensitivity, good selectivity, and wide time resolution, the μPAD-based CL assay has shown great potential in the early and accurate diagnosis of diseases.

Abstract
Sensitive detection of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is of great significance in the diagnosis of a fatal acute myocardial infarction. A redox-active nanocomposite of copper(II)-tannic acid@Cu (CuTA@Cu) was herein prepared on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode by electrochemical deposition of metallic copper combined with a metal stripping strategy. Then, HAuCl4 was in situ reduced to gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) by strong reductive catechol groups in the TA ligand. The AuNPs/CuTA@Cu composite was further utilized as a bifunctional matrix for the immobilization of the cTnI antibody (anti-cTnI), producing an electrochemical immunosensor. Electrochemical tests show that the immunoreaction between anti-cTnI and target cTnI can cause a significant reduction of the electrochemical signal of CuTA@Cu. It can be attributed to the insulating characteristic of the immunocomplex and its barrier effect to the electrolyte ion diffusion. From the signal changes of CuTA@Cu, cTnI can be analyzed in a wide range from 10 fg mL-1 to 10 ng mL-1, with an ultralow detection limit of 0.65 fg mL-1. The spiked recovery assays show that the immunosensor is reliable for cTnI determination in human serum samples, demonstrating its promising application in the early clinical diagnosis of myocardial infarction.

Abstract
Food safety requires point-of-care testing (POCT) for mycotoxins, since their presence in wine significantly impacts the wine industry and poses a severe threat to human life. Traditional detection methods are usually limited to detecting one mycotoxin and cannot achieve high-throughput, automated, and rapid quantitative analysis of multiple mycotoxins in real samples. Here, we propose a portable automated microfluidic platform (PAMP) integrating a chemiluminescence (CL) imaging system and a microfluidic chip to realize POCT for multiple mycotoxins in real samples, simplifying complex manual operations, shortening the detection time, and improving the detection sensitivity. Specially, silicone films were used as substrates on microfluidic chips to incubate mycotoxin conjugations, and the streptavidin-biotin (SA-B) system and an indirect immunoassay were implemented on silicone films to improve the sensitivity of reaction results. Interestingly, these methods significantly improved detection results, resulting in sensitive detection of mycotoxins, including zearalenone (ZEA) ranging from 1 to 32 ng/mL, aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) ranging from 0.2 to 6.4 ng/mL, and ochratoxin A (OTA) ranging from 2 to 64 ng/mL. The recovery of samples reached 91.39-109.14%, which verified the reliability and practicability of the PAMP. This PAMP enables sensitive and rapid detection of multiple mycotoxins in markets or wineries that lack advanced laboratory facilities. Therefore, it is essential to develop a portable microfluidic platform for POCT to detect mycotoxins in real samples.

Abstract
Programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1)-expressing exosomes are considered a potential marker for diagnosis and classification of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). There is an urgent need to develop highly sensitive and accurate chemiluminescence (CL) immunosensors for the detection of PD-L1-expressing exosomes. Herein, N-(4-aminobutyl)-N-ethylisopropanol-functionalized nickel-cobalt hydroxide (NiCo-DH-AA) with a hollow nanoflower structure as a highly efficient CL nanoprobe was synthesized using gold nanoparticles as a "bridge". The resulting NiCo-DH-AA exhibited a strong and stable CL emission, which was ascribed to the exceptional catalytic capability and large specific surface area of NiCo-DH, along with the capacity of AuNPs to facilitate free radical generation. On this basis, an ultrasensitive sandwich CL immunosensor for the detection of PD-L1-expressing exosomes was constructed by using PD-L1 antibody-modified NiCo-DH-AA as an effective signal probe and rabbit anti-CD63 protein polyclonal antibody-modified carboxylated magnetic bead as a capture platform. The immunosensor demonstrated outstanding analytical performance with a wide detection range of 4.75 × 103-4.75 × 108 particles/mL and a low detection limit of 7.76 × 102 particles/mL, which was over 2 orders of magnitude lower than the reported CL method for detecting PD-L1-expressing exosomes. Importantly, it was able to differentiate well not only between healthy persons and LUAD patients (100% specificity and 87.5% sensitivity) but also between patients with minimally invasive adenocarcinoma and invasive adenocarcinoma (92.3% specificity and 52.6% sensitivity). Therefore, this study not only presents an ultrasensitive and accurate diagnostic method for LUAD but also offers a novel, simple, and noninvasive approach for the classification of LUAD.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are a range of diseases, pointing the functional hindrances in the heart and blood vessels of the human system that contributes to 48.6 % of the world's adult death rate. The diagnosis of CVD relies upon the Electro Cardio Gram (ECG) and detection of muscle markers such as troponins. Among the cardiac trio, Cardiac Troponin I (cTnI) weighing 23 KiloDalton (kDa) is a sorted biomarker for CVD. cTnI remains high in the blood after 1-2 weeks of myocardial damage. Testing of cTnI in CVD patients aids in diagnosis and risk stratification of the disease. Different determination systems including optical, electrochemical, and acoustic have been put forward for monitoring the cTnI which are Point of Care (POC) that promotes simple and sensitive detection of cTnI. The modern era has paved way to high-sensitivity Troponin I (hscTnI) devices that can detect up to 0.01 ng/ml in human blood/plasma/serum. Yet, the practice of hscTnI is impracticable due to cost inefficiency. Development of new hscTnI devices with minimal investment and maximal detection range will meet the global requirement. This review gives an over view on different detection systems of cardiac troponin I which stands as a translational detection molecule for CVDs.

Abstract
Nanozymes with core@shell nanostructure are considered promising biolabeling materials for their multifunctional properties. In this work, a simple one-pot strategy has been proposed for scalable synthesis of gold@cerium dioxide core@shell nanoparticles (Au@CeO2 NPs) with strong localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) absorption and high peroxidase-like catalytic activity by redox reactions of Ce3+ ions and AuCl4- ions in diluted ammonia solution under room temperature. A colorimetric lateral flow immunochromatographic assay (LFIA) has been successfully fabricated for sensitive detection of heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP, an early cardiac biomarker) by using the Au@CeO2 NPs as reporters. The as-developed LFIA with Au@CeO2 NP reporter (termed as Au@CeO2-LFIA) exhibits a dynamic range of nearly two orders of magnitude, and a limit of detection (LOD) as low as 0.35 ng mL-1 H-FABP with nanozyme-triggered 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) colorimetric amplification. Furthermore, the practicality of Au@CeO2-LFIA has been demonstrated by profiling the concentrations of H-FABP in 156 blood samples of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients, and satisfactory results are obtained.

Abstract
Accurate detection of multiple cardiovascular biomarkers is crucial for the timely screening of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and differential diagnosis from acute aortic syndrome (AAS). Herein, an antibody microarray-based metal-enhanced fluorescence assay (AMMEFA) has been developed to quantitatively detect 7 cardiovascular biomarkers through the formation of a sandwich immunoassay on the poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)-decorated GNR-modified slide (GNR@P(GMA-HEMA) slide). The AMMEFA exhibits high specificity and sensitivity, the linear ranges span 5 orders of magnitude, and the limits of detection (LODs) of cardiac troponin I (cTnI), heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP), C-reactive protein (CRP), copeptin, myoglobin, D-Dimer, and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) reach 0.07, 0.2, 65.7, 0.6, 0.2, 8.3, and 0.3 pg mL-1, respectively. To demonstrate its practicability, the AMMEFA has been applied to quantitatively analyze 7 cardiovascular biomarkers in 140 clinical plasma samples. In addition, the expression levels of cardiovascular biomarkers were analyzed by the least absolute shrinkage and selector operator (LASSO) regression, and the area under receiver operator characteristic curves (AUCs) of healthy donors (HDs), ACS patients, and AAS patients are 0.99, 0.98, and 0.97, respectively.

Abstract
In this study, we demonstrate that palladium-platinum bimetallic nanoparticles (Pd@Pt NPs) as the nanozyme, combined with a multi-layer paper-based analytical device and DNA hybridization, can successfully detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This nanozyme has peroxidase-like properties, which can increase the oxidation rate of the substrate. Compared with horseradish peroxidase, which is widely used in traditional detection, the Michaelis constants of Pd@Pt NPs are fourteen and seventeen times lower than those for 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine and H2O2, respectively. To verify the catalytic efficiency of Pd@Pt NPs, this study will execute molecular diagnosis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. We chose the IS6110 fragment as the target DNA and divided the complementary sequences into the capture DNA and reporter DNA. They were modified on paper and Pd@Pt NPs, respectively, to detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis on a paper-based analytical device. With the above-mentioned method, we can detect target DNA within 15 minutes with a linear range between 0.75 and 10 nM, and a detection limit of 0.216 nM. These results demonstrate that the proposed platform (a DNA-nanozyme integrated paper-based analytical device, dnPAD) can provide sensitive and on-site infection prognosis in areas with insufficient medical resources.

Abstract
In this work, an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) quenching system using multimetal-organic frameworks (MMOFs) was proposed for the sensitive and specific detection of heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP), a marker of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Bimetallic MOFs containing Ru and Mn as metal centers were synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal method, yielding RuMn MOFs as the ECL emitter. The RuMn MOFs not only possessed the strong ECL performance of Ru(bpy)32+ but also maintained high porosity and original metal active sites characteristic of MOFs. Moreover, under the synergistic effect of MOFs and Ru(bpy)32+, RuMn MOFs have more efficient and stable ECL emission. The trimetal-based MOF (FePtRh MOF) was used as the ECL quencher because of the electron transfer between FePtRh MOFs and RuMn MOFs. In addition, active intramolecular electron transfer from Pt to Fe or Rh atoms also occurred in FePtRh MOFs, which could promote intermolecular electron transfer and improve electron transfer efficiency to enhance the quenching efficiency. The proposed ECL immunosensor demonstrated a wide dynamic range and a low detection limit of 0.01-100 ng mL-1 and 6.8 pg mL-1, respectively, under optimal conditions. The ECL quenching system also presented good specificity, stability, and reproducibility. Therefore, an alternative method for H-FABP detection in clinical diagnosis was provided by this study, highlighting the potential of MMOFs in advancing ECL technology.

Talanta 2024; 266:125009. [PMID: 37531884 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.125009] [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: 05/31/2023] [Revised: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 07/28/2023] [Indexed: 08/04/2023]
Abstract
Cardiac troponin I (cTnI), a gold biomarker for the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), plays a vital role in the early diagnosis, treatment and prognosis analysis of AMI. In this paper, an electrochemical biosensor for the highly sensitive determination of cTnI was fabricated based on the dual signal amplification strategy of electron transfer atom transfer radical polymerization (ARGET ATRP) and ring-opening polymerization (ROP) for the first time. Briefly, the thiolate cTnI-aptamer 1, which was bonded to the electrode via Au-S bonds, specifically captured cTnI to the electrode surface. Then, cTnI-aptamer 2 (Apt2) was successfully introduced to the electrode surface to form Apt-cTnI-Apt sandwich structure. Subsequently, the initiator BIBB was connected to Apt2 through bromination reaction, and then the resulting ATRP polymer was employed as a macromolecular initiator for the succeeding reaction. Next, the monomers, α-amino acid-N-carboxylic acid anhydride ferrocene derivatives (NCA-Fc), used for the ROP reaction produced numerous electroactive polymers on the electrode surface. The dual action of ARGET ATRP and ROP significantly improved sensitivity of cTnI biosensor assay, the prepared biosensor displayed a wide linear detection range from 100 fg mL-1 to 100 ng mL-1, with a detection limit of 32.24 fg mL-1. The method exhibited favorable selectivity, simple operation and excellent stability. Furthermore, the biosensor still rendered satisfactory analytical performance in the detection of clinical serum samples, indicating the application potential in clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Microfluidic devices are capable of handling 10-9 L to 10-18 L of fluids by incorporating tiny channels with dimensions of ten to hundreds of micrometers, and they can be fabricated using a wide range of materials including glass, silicon, polymers, paper, and cloth for tailored sensing applications. Microfluidic biosensors integrated with detection methods such as electrochemiluminescence (ECL) can be used for the diagnosis and prognosis of diseases. Coupled with ECL, these tandem devices are capable of sensing biomarkers at nanomolar to picomolar concentrations, reproducibly. Measurement at this low level of concentration makes microfluidic electrochemiluminescence (MF-ECL) devices ideal for biomarker detection in the context of early warning systems for diseases such as myocardial infarction, cancer, and others. However, the technology relies on the nature and inherent characteristics of an efficient luminophore. The luminophore typically undergoes a redox process to generate excited species which emit energy in the form of light upon relaxation to lower energy states. Therefore, in biosensor design the efficiency of the luminophore is critical. This review is focused on the integration of microfluidic devices with biosensors and using electrochemiluminescence as a detection method. We highlight the dual role of carbon quantum dots as a luminophore and co-reactant in electrochemiluminescence analysis, drawing on their unique properties that include large specific surface area, easy functionalization, and unique luminescent properties.

Abstract
The implementation of metal enhanced fluorescence (MEF) as an efficient detection tool, especially in the near-infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum, is a rather new direction for diagnostic analytical technologies. In this context, we propose a novel microfluidic plasmonic design based on paper for efficient MEF detection of the "proof-of-concept" biotin-streptavidin recognition interaction. Our design made use of the benefits of gold nanobipyramids (AuBPs), considering the strong enhanced electromagnetic field present at their sharp tips, and filter paper to operate as a natural microfluidic channel due to excellent wicking abilities. The calligraphed plasmonic paper, obtained using a commercial pen filled with AuBPs, was integrated in a robust sandwich optically transparent polydimethylsiloxane chip, exhibiting portability and flexibility while preserving the chip's properties. To place the Alexa 680 fluorophore at an optimal distance from the nanobipyramid substrate, the human IgG-anti-IgG-conjugated biotin sandwich reaction was employed. Thus, upon the capture of Alexa 680-conjugated streptavidin by the biotinylated system, a 1.3-fold average enhancement of the fluorophore's emission was determined by bulk fluorescence measurements. However, the local enhancement factor was considerably higher with values spanning from 5 to 6.3, as proven by mapping the fluorescence emission under both re-scan microscopy and fluorescence lifetime imaging, endorsing the proposed chip's feasibility for bulk MEF biosensing as well as high-resolution MEF bioimaging. Finally, the versatility of our chip was demonstrated by adapting the biosensing protocol for cardiac troponin I biomarker detection, validated using 10 plasma samples collected from pediatric patients and corroborated with a conventional ELISA assay.

Abstract
Cellular biomarkers mainly contain proteins, nucleic acids, glycans and many small molecules including small biomolecule metabolites, reactive oxygen species and other cellular chemical entities. The detection and mapping of the key cellular biomarkers can effectively help us to understand important cellular mechanisms associated with physiological and pathological processes, which greatly promote the development of clinical diagnosis and disease treatment. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) possesses high sensitivity and is free from the influence of strong self-fluorescence in living systems as well as the photobleaching of the dyes. It exhibits rich and narrow chemical fingerprint spectra for multiplexed detection, and has become a powerful tool to detect and map cellular biomarkers. In this review, we present an overview of recent advances in the detection and mapping of different classes of cellular biomarkers based on SERS sensing. These advances fully confirm that the SERS-based sensors and sensing methods have great potential for the exploration of biological mechanisms and clinical applications. Additionally, we also discuss the limitations of present research and the future developments of the SERS technology in this field.

Abstract
Rapid and precise detection methods for the early-stage detection of cardiovascular irregularities are crucial to stopping and reducing their development. Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death in the world. Hence, cardiac-related biomarkers are essential for monitoring and managing of process. The necessity for biomarker detection has significantly widened the field of biosensor development. Bio-sensing methods offer rapid detection, low cost, sensitivity, portability, and selectivity in the development of devices for biomarker detection. For the prediction of cardiovascular diseases, some biomarkers can be used, like C-reactive protein (CRP), troponin I or T, creatine kinase (CK-MB), B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), myoglobin (Mb), suppression of tumorigenicity 2 protein (ST2) and galectin-3 (Gal3). In this review, recent research studies were covered for gaining insight into utilizing optical-based biosensors, including surface plasmon resonance (SPR), photonic crystals (PCs), fluorescence-based techniques, fiber optics, and also Raman spectroscopy biosensors for the ultrasensitive detection of cardiac biomarkers. The main goal of this review is to focus on the improvement of optical biosensors in the future for the diagnosis of heart diseases and to discuss how to enhance their properties for use in medicine. Some main data from each study reviewed are emphasized, including the CVD biomarkers and the response range of the optical-based devices and biosensors.

Abstract
Chemiluminescence (CL) has emerged as a critical tool for the sensing and quantification of various bioanalytes in virtually all clinical fields. However, the rapid nature of many CL reactions raises challenges for typical low-cost optical sensors such as cameras to achieve accurate and sensitive detection. Meanwhile, classic sensors such as photomultiplier tubes are highly sensitive but lack spatial multiplexing capabilities and are generally not suited for point-of-care applications outside a standard laboratory setting. To address this issue, in this paper, a miniaturized and versatile silicon-photomultiplier-based fiber-integrated CL device (SFCD) was designed for sensitive multiplex CL detection. The SFCD comprises a silicon photomultiplier array coupled to an array of high numerical aperture plastic optical fibers to achieve 16-plex detection. The optical fibers ensure efficient light collection while allowing the fixed detector to be mated with diverse sample geometries (e.g., circular or grid), simply by adjusting the fiber configuration. In a head-to-head comparison with a lens-based camera system featuring a cooled detector, the SFCD achieved a 14-fold improved limit of detection in both direct and enzyme-mediated CL reactions. The SFCD also features improved compactness and lower cost, as well as faster temporal resolution compared with camera-based systems while preserving spatial multiplexing and good environmental robustness. Thus, the SFCD has excellent potential for point-of-care biosensing applications.

Abstract
Detection of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) plays a critical role in diagnosing acute myocardial infarction (AMI). In this report, a new kind of spherical AuPt@FexOy core@shell nanoparticles (termed as AuPt@FexOy NPs) were one-pot synthesized by a redox interaction-engaged strategy (RIES) without the addition of any surfactants or reducing agents. The as-synthesized AuPt@FexOy NPs not only retain the plasmonic activity of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), but also possess excellent catalytic activities of platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) and FexOy nanoclusters. The features of AuPt@FexOy NPs enable greatly enhance the colorimetric detection sensitivity of lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) through integrating AuPt@FexOy NPs labeling procedure and catalyzing oxidation of chromogenic substrate 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) signal amplification strategy. The as-developed colorimetric LFIA (termed as AuPt@FexOy-LFIA) exhibits the limit of detection (LOD) as 26.0 pg mL-1 cTnI under the TMB signal amplification mode. In particular, the detection results of cTnI in 40 clinical seral samples by AuPt@FexOy-LFIA are correlated well with those of cTnI in the same samples by commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) detection kit (R2 = 0.97, slope = 1), demonstrating the highly reliable analytical performance and good application prospect of AuPt@FexOy-LFIA.

Abstract
The application of active metal-based nanoscale catalysts as signal enhancers for chemiluminescent immunoassay (CLIA) is restricted by poor thermodynamic stability and ease of aggregation. For the present exploration, zirconium-based MOFs UiO-66-NH2 were adopted as supports to load cobalt species by an impregnation-reduction approach. Cobalt species were uniformly distributed in the framework architecture of the MOF materials. The prepared cobalt-loaded MOF hybrids, noted as UiO-66-NH2/Co, display superior chemiluminescence (CL) catalytic activity owing to the introduction of cobalt catalytic centers. The CL catalytic capability of UiO-66-NH2/Co hybrids is about 18 times of that of free cobalt ions at the same cobalt amount. The results of mechanism exploration manifest that the hybrids are capable of accelerating the decay of hydrogen peroxide and promoting the yield of reactive oxygen species. Based on their remarkable CL catalytic capability, a CLIA approach was proposed to monitor carbendazim by adopting the hybrids as signal probes, which showed the merits of high sensitivity and satisfactory selectivity. Carbendazim was quantitated within a concentration range of 0.05 to 60 ng mL-1, with a detection limit of 19.8 pg mL-1. The results for monitoring spiked samples verify the acceptable practicality of the proposed CLIA approach.

Abstract
The traditional analytical methods used for biomedical analysis are expensive and not easy to handle and require sophisticated instruments, thus their application is limited in resource-limited settings. Due to their portability, low cost, and ability to be applied to different analytical techniques, paper-based analytical devices are becoming valuable tools for biomedical analysis. The integration of smartphones into analytical devices has provided the ability to build portable, cost-effective, straightforward analytical devices for biomedical analysis and mobile health. The key aim of this review is to emphasize the recent applications of PADs combined with a smartphone for the optical analysis of biomedical species. We started this review by highlighting the type of papers and their modifications with different materials to prepare the PADs. After that, this review presents various detection methods including colorimetry, fluorescence, and luminescence where the smartphone is used for read-out. In the end, we provided the recent applications of the analysis of different biomedical compounds such as cancer and cardiovascular biomarkers, metal ions, glucose, viruses, etc. We believe that the present review will attract a wide scientific community in the areas of analytical chemistry, sensors, and clinical testing.

Abstract
It is highly desired to exploit good nanomaterials as nanocarriers for immobilizing chemiluminescence (CL) reagents, catalysts and antibodies to develop signal probes with intensive and stable CL properties for immunoassays. In this work, N-(4-aminobutyl)-N-ethylisoluminol (ABEI) and Co2+ bifunctionalized polymethylacrylic acid nanogels (PMAANGs-ABEI/Co2+) were synthesized via a facile strategy by utilizing carboxyl group-rich PMAANGs as nanocarriers to immobilize ABEI and Co2+. The obtained PMAANGs-ABEI/Co2+ showed extraordinary CL performance. The CL intensity is 2 orders of magnitude higher than that of previously reported ABEI and Cu2+-cysteine complex bifunctionalized gold nanoparticles with high CL efficiency. This was attributed to the excellent catalytic ability of Co2+ and polymethylacrylic acid nanogels, as well as the improved CL catalytic efficiency from a decreased spatial distance between ABEI and the catalyst. The as-prepared nanogels also possess abundant surface reaction sites and good CL stability. On this basis, a sandwich immunoassay for the nucleocapsid protein of SARS-CoV-2 (N protein) was developed by using magnetic bead connected primary antibody as a capture probe and PMAANGs-ABEI/Co2+ connected secondary antibody as a signal probe. The linear range of the proposed method for N protein detection was 3.16-316 ng/mL, and its detection limit was 2.19 ng/mL (S/N = 3). Moreover, the developed immunoassay was performed with a short incubation time of 5 min, which greatly reduced the detection time for N protein. By using corresponding antibodies, the developed strategy might be applied to detect other biomarkers.

Abstract
The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak has urged the establishment of a global-wide rapid diagnostic system. Current widely-used tests for COVID-19 include nucleic acid assays, immunoassays, and radiological imaging. Immunoassays play an irreplaceable role in rapidly diagnosing COVID-19 and monitoring the patients for the assessment of their severity, risks of the immune storm, and prediction of treatment outcomes. Despite of the enormous needs for immunoassays, the widespread use of traditional immunoassay platforms is still limited by high cost and low automation, which are currently not suitable for point-of-care tests (POCTs). Microfluidic chips with the features of low consumption, high throughput, and integration, provide the potential to enable immunoassays for POCTs, especially in remote areas. Meanwhile, luminescence detection can be merged with immunoassays on microfluidic platforms for their good performance in quantification, sensitivity, and specificity. This review introduces both homogenous and heterogenous luminescence immunoassays with various microfluidic platforms. We also summarize the strengths and weaknesses of the categorized methods, highlighting their recent typical progress. Additionally, different microfluidic platforms are described for comparison. The latest advances in combining luminescence immunoassays with microfluidic platforms for POCTs of COVID-19 are further explained with antigens, antibodies, and related cytokines. Finally, challenges and future perspectives were discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The demand for point-of-care testing (POCT) devices has rapidly grown since they offer immediate test results with ease of use, makingthem suitable for home self-testing patients and caretakers. However, the POCT development has faced the challenges of increased cost and limited resources. Therefore, the paper substrate as a low-cost material has been employed to develop a cost-effective POCT device, known as "Microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs)". This device is gaining attention as a promising tool for medicinal diagnostic applications owing to its unique features of simple fabrication, low cost, enabling manipulation flow (capillarydriven flow), the ability to store reagents, and accommodating multistep assay requirements. OBJECTIVE This review comprehensively examines the fabrication methods and device designs (2D/3D configuration) and their advantages and disadvantages, focusing on updated μPADs applications for motif identification. METHODS The evolution of paper-based devices, starting from the traditional devices of dipstick and lateral flow assay (LFA) with μPADs, has been described. Patterned structure fabrication of each technique has been compared among the equipment used, benefits, and drawbacks. Microfluidic device designs, including 2D and 3D configurations, have been introduced as well as their modifications. Various designs of μPADs have been integrated with many powerful detection methods such as colorimetry, electrochemistry, fluorescence, chemiluminescence, electrochemiluminescence, and SER-based sensors for medicinal diagnosis applications. CONCLUSION The μPADs potential to deal with commercialization in terms of the state-of-the-art of μPADs in medicinal diagnosis has been discussed. A great prototype, which is currently in a reallife application breakthrough, has been updated.

Abstract
1,4-Dithiothreitol (DTT), a highly water-soluble and well-known reducing agent for preservation and regeneration of sulfhydryl groups in biomedical applications, has been developed as an efficient and stable coreactant of lucigenin for the first time. DTT efficiently reacts with lucigenin to generate intense chemiluminescence (CL), eliminating the need for external catalysts to facilitate the lucigenin CL. The DTT-lucigenin CL is approximately 15-fold more intense when compared with the lucigenin-H2O2 classical system. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) remarkably quenches the DTT-lucigenin CL. Based on this phenomenon, a newly developed CL approach for the determination of SOD was proposed with a linear range of 0.01-1.5 μg/mL and a limit of detection of 2.2 ng/mL. Various factors affecting the CL emission of the DTT-lucigenin probe were studied and optimized. Plausible mechanistic pathways for the CL coreaction of lucigenin with DTT were proposed and fully discussed. Our proposed method not only has the merit of being selective toward the target analytes but also eliminates the need for the complex synthesis of luminescent probes and facilitates the sensitive detection of SOD in human serum and cosmetics SOD raw material with satisfactory recoveries.

Abstract
Microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs) have attracted significant attention in the field of point-of-care (POC) diagnostics. However, the heterogeneous structure of the paper often impairs the limit of detection (LOD) for low-abundance targets when those targets are directly analyzed. One viable solution to bypass this limitation is to elevate the target concentration above the LOD on-site to reach a valid readout. Here, we developed a 3D μPADs preconcentrator (3D-μP2) to increase sample concentration by electrokinetic trapping and demonstrated its application in increasing the LOD of a downstream colorimetric assay. The three-dimensional (3D) structure of this device was composed of a loading pad, a vertical fluid path formed by stacked absorbent pads, and an ion-selective membrane of PEDOT:PSS. This novel design facilitates fast preconcentration, high capacity in sample processing, and easy target retrieval. The concentration of an exemplary target, a single-stranded DNA sequence, was increased up to 170-fold within 80 s. The LOD of the colorimetric assay to verify the DNA target was increased 3 orders of magnitude with a preconcentrated sample compared to the control. The device and its analysis equipment used in this study were all cheap and portable. Thus, the 3D-μP2 can be a powerful POC tool for sample pretreatment in resource-limited areas.

Abstract
Early screening of cancer can effectively prolong survival time and reduce cancer mortality. However, the existing health-monitoring devices can only be carried out in professional laboratories, so large-scale early cancer screening in resource-limited settings is hardly achieved. To embrace the challenge, we developed a novel chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) analyzer that does not require a professional operation. Then, it was applied to detect carbohydrate antigen 50 (CA50), a non–organ-specific tumor marker for screening various cancers. As a result, the analyzer exhibited excellent performance that the total assay time was only 15 min, and the detection limit reached 0.057 U ml−1. A coefficient of variance (CV) less than 15% was well-controlled for both intra- and inter-assay precision, and the linear range was 0–500 U ml−1. More importantly, this analyzer can continuously detect 60 samples per hour without any professional paramedic. Finally, this analyzer has been applied to evaluate clinical samples and the detected results showed a good correlation with the clinical test results (correlation coefficient, 0.9958). These characteristics exactly meet large-scale and high-throughput early screening of cancer. Thus, this miniaturized analyzer for CA50 detection is promising to achieve early large-scale screening of cancer in the resource-limited grassroots community.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected the world, causing enormous loss of lives. A greater impact on the economy was also observed worldwide. During the pandemic, the antimicrobial aprons, face masks, sterilizers, sensor processed touch-free sanitizers, and highly effective diagnostic devices having greater sensitivity and selectivity helped to foster the healthcare facilities. Furthermore, the research and development sectors are tackling this emergency with the rapid invention of vaccines and medicines. In this regard, two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials are greatly explored to combat the extreme severity of the pandemic. Among the nanomaterials, the 2D MXene is a prospective element due to its unique properties like greater surface functionalities, enhanced conductivity, superior hydrophilicity, and excellent photocatalytic and/or photothermal properties. These unique properties of MXene can be utilized to fabricate face masks, PPE kits, face shields, and biomedical instruments like efficient biosensors having greater antiviral activities. MXenes can also cure comorbidities in COVID-19 patients and have high drug loading as well as controlled drug release capacity. Moreover, the remarkable biocompatibility of MXene adds a feather in its cap for diverse biomedical applications. This review briefly explains the different synthesis processes of 2D MXenes, their biocompatibility, cytotoxicity and antiviral features. In addition, this review also discusses the viral cycle of SARS-CoV-2 and its inactivation mechanism using MXene. Finally, various applications of MXene for combatting the COVID-19 pandemic and their future perspectives are discussed.

Abstract
In traditional lateral flow immunoassays (LFIA) for pathogens detection, capture antibody (CA) is necessary and usually conjugated to Au nanoparticles (NPs) in order to label the target analyte. However, the acquisition process of the Au-CA nanoprobe is relatively complicated and costly, which will limit the application of LFIA. Herein, p-mercaptophenylboronic acid-modified Au NPs (namely Au-PMBA nanocrabs), were synthesized and applied for a new CA-independent LFIA method. The stable Au-PMBA nanocrabs showed outstanding capability to capture both Gram-negative bacteria and Gram-positive bacteria through covalent bonding. The acquired Au-PMBA-bacteria complexes were dropped onto the strip, and then captured by the detection antibody on the test line (T-line). Take Escherichia coli O157:H7 as an example, the gray value of T-line was proportional to the bacteria concentration and the linear range was 103-107 cfu·mL-1. This CA-independent strategy exhibited higher sensitivity than the traditional CA-dependent double antibody sandwich method, because detection limit of the former one was 103 cfu·mL-1 only by visual observation, which was reduced by 3 orders of magnitude. Besides, this platform successfully screened E. coli O157:H7 in four food samples with recoveries ranging from 90.25% to 107.25%. This CA-independent LFIA showed great advantages and satisfactory potential for rapid foodborne pathogens detection in real samples.

Ascorbic acid-mediated organic photoelectrochemical transistor sensing strategy for highly sensitive detection of heart-type fatty acid binding protein. Biosens Bioelectron 2022; 201:113958.

Abstract
Heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) has been regarded as a promising biomarker for early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Developing fast and reliable method for H-FABP detection is still highly desirable but challenging. Herein, an ascorbic acid (AA)-mediated organic photoelectrochemical transistor (OPECT) sensing strategy was reported for the detection of H-FABP in phosphate buffer saline (PBS) solution and human serum. A primary antibody/H-FABP/secondary antibody-Au NPs-alkaline phosphatase (ALP) sandwich immunorecognition structure was constructed. The modified ALP could catalytically convert ascorbic acid-2-phosphate to AA, which was then analyzed by OPECT. As a result, the AA-mediated OPECT sensing strategy realized highly sensitive detection of H-FABP with a detection limit of 3.23 × 10-14 g/mL which is two orders of magnitude lower than that of PEC method. Under optimal experimental conditions, H-FABP concentration could be obtained in ∼90 min. Importantly, the analysis of H-FABP was resistant to the interference from immunoglobulin G, bovine serum albumin, cysteine, AA and human serum. The proposed AA-mediated OPECT sensing strategy provides a simple, fast, and accurate way for H-FABP detection in AMI suspected patients.

[PMID: 34607116 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2021.113684] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2021] [Revised: 09/27/2021] [Accepted: 09/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
The application of conventional chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) in resource-limited settings is limited due to the large apparatus footprint, cumbersome operation and maintenance process, and high consumption of reagents. To address this issue, we developed an active droplet-array (ADA) microfluidics-based CLIA system, which consists of a compact microchip analyzer and microfluidic chips with preloaded reagents. The microfluidic chip contains microslit-connected microchambers, in which all the required reagents were preloaded in water-in-oil droplets. The microfluidic chip analyzer can manipulate five microfluidic chips in parallel in a single run. By interacting the microchip with magnetic, thermal, optical mechanisms programmatically, the entire workflow of CLIA can be accomplished in an automated manner. With the proposed CLIA, the detection of procalcitonin (PCT) can be completed in 12 min, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.044 ng mL-1 and a detection range from 0.044 to 100 ng mL-1. We found a good linear correlation between the microfluidic CLIA and the conventional electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (R2=0.98).The microfluidic CLIA has significant advantages over the conventional ELISA in detection sensitivity, dynamic range, instrument size and turnaround time, and can provide more consistent and reliable results than the lateral flow immunoassays. The compact microfluidic system can perform automated and parallelized CLIA in a short turnaround time, and thus well suited to Point-of-Care detection of disease biomarkers.

Abstract
The accurate assay of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is very important for acute myocardial infarction (AMI), it also can be employed as an effective index for screening serious patients in COVID-19 pandemic before fatal heart injury to reduce the mortality. A ratiometric sensing strategy was proposed based on electrochemiluminescent (ECL) signal of doxorubicin (Dox)-luminol or the electrochemical (EC) signal of methylene blue (MB) vs. referable EC signal of Dox. The bio-recognitive Tro4-aptamer ensures the high specificity of the sensor by affinity binding to catch cTnI, and the tetrahedral DNA (TDs) on Au/Ti3C2-MXene built an excellent sensing matrix. An in situ hybrid chain reaction (HCR) amplification greatly improved the sensitivity. The ratiometric sensing responses ECLDox-luminol/CurrentDox or CurrentMB/CurrentDox linearly regressed to cTnI concentration in the range of 0.1 fM-1 pM or 0.1 fM-500 fM with the limit of detection (LOD) as 0.04 fM or 0.1 fM, respectively. Served as the reference signal, CurrentDox reflected the variation of sensor, it is very effective to ensure the accuracy of detection to obviate the false results. The proposed biosensors show good specificity, sensitivity, reproducibility and stability, have been applied to determine cTnI in real samples with satisfactory results. They are worth looking forward to be used for screening serious patient of COVID-19 to reduce the mortality, especially in mobile cabin hospital.

Label-Free Immunoassay for Sensitive and Rapid Detection of the SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Based on Functionalized Magnetic Nanobeads with Chemiluminescence and Immunoactivity.

Abstract
Direct detection of SARS-CoV-2 in biological specimens is often challenging due to the low abundance of viral components and lack of enough sensitivity. Herein, we developed a new type of chemiluminescent functionalized magnetic nanomaterial for sensitive detection of the SARS-CoV-2 antigen. First, HAuCl4 was reduced by N-(aminobutyl)-N-(ethylisoluminol) (ABEI) in the presence of amino magnetic beads (MB-NH2) to generate ABEI-AuNPs, which were directly assembled on the surface of MB-NH2. Then, Co2+ was modified onto the surface to form MB@ABEI-Au/Co2+ (MAA/Co2+). MAA/Co2+ exhibited good chemiluminescence (CL) and magnetic properties. It was also found that it was easy for the antibody to be connected with MAA/Co2+. Accordingly, MAA/Co2+ was used as a sensing interface to construct a label-free immunoassay for rapid detection of the N protein in SARS-CoV-2. The immunoassay showed a linear range from 0.1 pg/mL to 10 ng/mL and a low detection limit of 69 fg/mL, which was superior to previously reported methods for N protein detection. It also demonstrated good selectivity by virtue of magnetic separation, which effectively removed a sample matrix after immunoreactions. It was successfully applied for the detection of the N protein in spiked human serum and saliva samples. Furthermore, the immunoassay was integrated with an automatic CL analyzer with magnetic separation to detect the N protein in patient serums and rehabilitation patient serums with satisfactory results. Thus, the CL immunoassay without a complicated labeling procedure is sensitive, selective, fast, simple, and cost-effective, which may be used to combat the COVID-19 pandemic. Finally, the CL quenching mechanism of the N protein in the immunoassay was also explored.

Abstract
Herein, a highly sensitive electrochemical immunosensor was presented for the cardiac troponin I (cTnI) determination using a multifunctional covalent organic framework-based nanocomposite (HRP-Ab2-Au-COF) as the signal amplification probe. The spherical COF with a large surface area was synthesized in a short time by a simple solution-based method at room temperature. The good biocompatibility, low toxicity, and high stability in water of the COF guarantee its application in biosensing. Besides, its high porosity makes it an excellent carrier for loading abundant horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The modified gold nanoparticles on the surface of COF not only provide a load platform for secondary antibody (Ab2) but also improve the conductivity of COF. Under the synergistic effect of the hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and HRP, hydroquinone (HQ) in the solution is catalytically oxidized to benzoquinone (BQ), which is then reduced on the electrode surface to generate the electrochemical signal. The designed probes not only show the specific recognition behavior of Ab2 to cTnI but also improve the sensitivity of the biosensing system due to the signal amplification caused by the excellent enzyme catalytic performance of HRP. Based on the H2O2-HRP-HQ signal amplification system, the biosensor for cTnI was fabricated and exhibited a linear response as a function of logarithmic cTnI concentration ranging from 5 pg/mL to 10 ng/mL, and the detection limit was 1.7 pg/mL. Moreover, the biosensor exhibited excellent recovery and reproducibility in the actual sample testing. This work provided a simple approach to determine cTnI quantitatively in practical samples and broadened the utilization scope of the COF-based nanocomposite in the electrochemical immunosensor.

Abstract
The detection of trypsin and its inhibitor is significantly important for both clinical diagnosis and disease treatment. Herein, we demonstrate a hydrogel-assisted paper-based lateral flow sensor for the detection of trypsin and its inhibitor for the first time. The gelatin hydrogel is hydrolyzed based on the gel-to-sol transition in the presence of trypsin, which results in the release of the trapped water molecules in the gelatin hydrogel. By placing one end of a pH indicator strip onto the hydrolyzed gelatin hydrogel, water is flowing along the pH indicator strip. However, in the absence of trypsin, water cannot flow along the pH indicator strip as the water molecules are trapped in the gelatin hydrogel. The detection limit of the system reaches as low as 1.0 × 10-6 mg/mL, and it is also applied to the quantitative detection of trypsin in human serum. In addition, the detection of a clinical drug aprotinin that is an inhibitor of trypsin is also successfully achieved. Noteworthy, only the gelatin hydrogel, pH indicator strip, and PS substrate are needed to fulfill the detection of trypsin without the need of other chemicals or reagents. Overall, we develop a particularly simple, elegant, robust, competitive, high-throughput, and low-cost approach for the rapid and label-free detection of trypsin and its inhibitor, which is very promising in the development of commercial products for sensing, diagnostic, and pharmaceutical applications. Besides, the hydrogel-assisted paper-based lateral flow sensor can also be employed to detect other analytes of interest by use of different stimuli-responsive hydrogel systems.

Abstract
In recent years, point-of-care testing has played an important role in immunoassay, biochemical analysis, and molecular diagnosis, especially in low-resource settings. Among various point-of-care-testing platforms, microfluidic chips have many outstanding advantages. Microfluidic chip applies the technology of miniaturizing conventional laboratory which enables the whole biochemical process including reagent loading, reaction, separation, and detection on the microchip. As a result, microfluidic platform has become a hotspot of research in the fields of food safety, health care, and environmental monitoring in the past few decades. Here, the state-of-the-art application of microfluidics in immunoassay in the past decade will be reviewed. According to different driving forces of fluid, microfluidic platform is divided into two parts: passive manipulation and active manipulation. In passive manipulation, we focus on the capillary-driven microfluidics, while in active manipulation, we introduce pressure microfluidics, centrifugal microfluidics, electric microfluidics, optofluidics, magnetic microfluidics, and digital microfluidics. Additionally, within the introduction of each platform, innovation of the methods used and their corresponding performance improvement will be discussed. Ultimately, the shortcomings of different platforms and approaches for improvement will be proposed.

Abstract
Chemiluminescence (CL) is a dominant technology in clinical diagnosis. In order to meet the increasing demand for the sensitive and simultaneous detection of chemiluminescence from multiple samples, the development of multiplex analysis on a single chip is highly desired. However, most chemiluminescence detection systems for multiple samples are still simple lens-based optical imaging systems, and a compromise must always be made between a large aperture (required by the weak chemiluminescence) and a large field of view (required by the size of the sample array). In this paper, we report a fiber bundle-based chemiluminescence detection system for the simultaneous and efficient detection of multiple chemiluminescent samples. In this system, one side of the fiber bundle is directly coupled to the optically active surface of a charge-coupled device (CCD), while the other end is divided into many sub-bundles that are aligned above the samples in a chemiluminescence array to collect their chemiluminescence. Taking advantage of the large numerical aperture and high transmittance of optical fibers, this system shows about a 50 times increase in chemiluminescence collection efficiency over the lens-based imaging system. Moreover, it shows no vignetting effect that is inevitable in a lens-based imaging system with a large field of view. This work provides a promising method for multiple sample chemiluminescence detection, and should find application in bioassays.

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.

Abstract
Paper-based analytical devices (PADs) have emerged as a promising approach to point-of-care (POC) detection applications in biomedical and clinical diagnosis owing to their advantages, including cost-effectiveness, ease of use, and rapid responses as well as for being equipment-free, disposable, and user-friendly. However, the overall sensitivity of PADs still remains weak, posing a challenge for biosensing scientists exploiting them in clinical applications. This review comprehensively summarizes the current applicable potential of PADs, focusing on total signal-amplification strategies that have been applied widely in PADs involving colorimetry, luminescence, surface-enhanced Raman scattering, photoacoustic, photothermal, and photoelectrochemical methods as well as nucleic acid-mediated PAD modifications. The advances in signal-amplification strategies in terms of signal-enhancing principles, sensitivity, and time reactions are discussed in detail to provide an overview of these approaches to using PADs in biosensing applications. Furthermore, a comparison of these methods summarizes the potential for scientists to develop superior PADs. This review serves as a useful inside look at the current progress and prospective directions in using PADs for clinical diagnostics and provides a better source of reference for further investigations, as well as innovations, in the POC diagnostics field.

Abstract
Lab-on-paper, or microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs), use paper as a substrate material, and are patterned with a system of microchannels, reaction zones and sensing elements to perform analysis and detection. The sample transfer in such devices is performed by capillary action. As a result, external driving forces are not required, and hence the size and cost of the device are significantly reduced. Lab-on-paper devices have thus attracted significant attention for point-of-care medical diagnostic purposes in recent years, particularly in less-developed regions of the world lacking medical resources and infrastructures. This review discusses the major advances in lab-on-paper technology for blood analysis and diagnosis in the past five years. The review focuses particularly on the many clinical applications of lab-on-paper devices, including diabetes diagnosis, acute myocardial infarction (AMI) detection, kidney function diagnosis, liver function diagnosis, cholesterol and triglyceride (TG) analysis, sickle-cell disease (SCD) and phenylketonuria (PKU) analysis, virus analysis, C-reactive protein (CRP) analysis, blood ion analysis, cancer factor analysis, and drug analysis. The review commences by introducing the basic transmission principles, fabrication methods, structural characteristics, detection techniques, and sample pretreatment process of modern lab-on-paper devices. A comprehensive review of the most recent applications of lab-on-paper devices to the diagnosis of common human diseases using blood samples is then presented. The review concludes with a brief summary of the main challenges and opportunities facing the lab-on-paper technology field in the coming years.

Abstract
On-demand screening, real-time monitoring and rapid diagnosis of ubiquitous diseases, such as diabetes, at early stages are indispensable in personalised treatment. Emerging impacts of nano/microscale materials on optical and portable biosensor strips and devices have become increasingly important in the remarkable development of sensitive visualisation (i.e. visible inspection by the human eye) assays, low-cost analyses and personalised home testing of patients with diabetes. With the increasing public attention regarding the self-monitoring of diabetes, the development of visual readout, easy-to-use and wearable biosensors has gained considerable interest. Our comprehensive review bridges the practical assessment gap between optical bio-visualisation assays, disposable test strips, sensor array designs and full integration into flexible skin-based or contact lens devices with the on-site wireless signal transmission of glucose detection in physiological fluids. To date, the fully modulated integration of nano/microscale optical biosensors into wearable electronic devices, such as smartphones, is critical to prolong periods of indoor and outdoor clinical diagnostics. Focus should be given to the improvements of invasive, wireless and portable sensing technologies to improve the applicability and reliability of screen display, continuous monitoring, dynamic data visualisation, online acquisition and self and in-home healthcare management of patients with diabetes.
