Abstract
Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), classified as a class I carcinogen, is a widespread mycotoxin that poses a serious threat to public health and economic development, and the food safety problems caused by AFB1 have aroused worldwide concern. The development of accurate and sensitive methods for the detection of AFB1 is significant for food safety monitoring. In this work, a sandwich-type photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensor for AFB1 detection was constructed on the basis of an aptamer-antibody structure. A good photocurrent response was obtained due to the sensitization of In2S3 by Ru(bpy)32+. In addition, this sandwich-type sensor constructed by modification with the antibody, target detector, and aptamer layer by layer attenuated the migration hindering effect of photogenerated carriers caused by the double antibody structure. The aptamer and antibody synergistically recognized and captured the target analyte, resulting in more reliable PEC response signals. CdSe@CdS QDs-Apt were modified as a signal-off probe onto the sensor platform to quantitatively detect AFB1 with a "signal-off" response, which enhanced the sensitivity of the sensor. The PEC biosensor showed a linear response range from 10-12 to 10-6 g mL-1 with a detection limit of 0.023 pg mL-1, providing a feasible approach for the quantitative detection of AFB1 in food samples.

Abstract
Small molecules are significant risk factors for causing food safety issues, posing serious threats to human health. Sensitive screening for hazards is beneficial for enhancing public security. However, traditional detection methods are unable to meet the requirements for the field screening of small molecules. Therefore, it is necessary to develop applicable methods with high levels of sensitivity and specificity to identify the small molecules. Aptamers are short-chain nucleic acids that can specifically bind to small molecules. By utilizing aptamers to enhance the performance of recognition technology, it is possible to achieve high selectivity and sensitivity levels when detecting small molecules. There have been several varieties of aptamer target recognition techniques developed to improve the ability to detect small molecules in recent years. This review focuses on the principles of detection platforms, classifies the conjugating methods between small molecules and aptamers, summarizes advancements in aptamer-based conjugate recognition techniques for the detection of small molecules in food, and seeks to provide emerging powerful tools in the field of point-of-care diagnostics.

Food Chem 2024; 441:138382. [PMID: 38218151 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.138382] [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: 10/27/2023] [Revised: 12/27/2023] [Accepted: 01/04/2024] [Indexed: 01/15/2024]
Abstract
Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), a hepatotoxic and carcinogenic food contaminant, is commonly found in agricultural food. Herein, Au NPs anchored ZIF-8-derived porous carbon-ZnO (Au NPs/PCZIF-8-ZnO) was firstly synthesized to act as the sensing substrate. Then, a ratiometric electrochemical (EC) and "off-on" photoelectrochemical (PEC) dual-mode paper-based aptasensor was presented for AFB1 detection based on a distance-modulation sensing strategy. The independent signal transduction mechanisms and output mode not only broaden the dynamic detection range but also provide a self-verification to assay results, improving the sensitivity and reliability. The wide detection ranges of 0.1 pg/mL-100 ng/mL (EC mode) and 0.02 pg/mL-100 ng/mL (PEC mode) were obtained using dual-mode aptasensor, with detection limits of 36.7 and 9.3 fg/mL, respectively. The fabricated aptasensor exhibited excellent selectivity, reproducibility and stability. Furthermore, it exhibited good practicability for AFB1 assays in real samples, demonstrating great potential applications for food safety evaluation.
