JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 458:131874. [PMID: 37379602 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.131874] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2023] [Revised: 06/09/2023] [Accepted: 06/14/2023] [Indexed: 06/30/2023]
Abstract
Diethylstilbestrol (DES) is a threatening factor to the human endocrine system. Here, we reported a DNA origami-assembled plasmonic dimer nanoantenna-based surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) biosensor for measuring trace DES in foods. A critical factor influencing the SERS effect is interparticle gap modulation of SERS hotspots with nanometer-scale accuracy. DNA origami technology aims to generate naturally perfect structures with nano-scale precision. Exploiting the specificity of base-pairing and spatial addressability of DNA origami to form plasmonic dimer nanoantenna, the designed SERS biosensor generated electromagnetic-enhancement and uniform-enhancement hotspots to improve sensitivity and uniformity. Owing to their high target-binding affinity, aptamer-functionalized DNA origami biosensors transduced the target recognition into dynamic structural transformations of plasmonic nanoantennas, which were further converted to amplified Raman outputs. A broad linear range from 10-10 to 10-5 M was obtained with the detection limit of 0.217 nM. Our findings demonstrate the utility of aptamer-integrated DNA origami-based biosensors as a promising approach for trace analysis of environmental hazards.

Abstract
DNA origami nanostructures are self-assembled into almost arbitrary two- and three-dimensional shapes from a long, single-stranded viral scaffold strand and a set of short artificial oligonucleotides. Each DNA strand can be functionalized individually using well-established DNA chemistry, representing addressable sites that allow for the nanometre precise placement of various chemical entities such as proteins, molecular chromophores, nanoparticles, or simply DNA motifs. By means of microscopic and spectroscopic techniques, these entities can be visualized or detected, and either their mutual interaction or their interaction with external stimuli such as radiation can be studied. This gives rise to the Lab-on-a-DNA origami approach, which is introduced in this Feature Article, and the state-of-the-art is summarized with a focus on light-harvesting nanoantennas and DNA platforms for single-molecule analysis either by optical spectroscopy or atomic force microscopy (AFM). Light-harvesting antennas can be generated by the precise arrangement of chromophores to channel and direct excitation energy. At the same time, plasmonic nanoparticles represent a complementary approach to focus light on the nanoscale. Plasmonic nanoantennas also allow for the observation of single molecules either by Raman scattering or fluorescence spectroscopy and DNA origami platforms provide unique opportunities to arrange nanoparticles and molecules to be studied. Finally, the analysis of single DNA motifs by AFM allows for an investigation of radiation-induced processes in DNA with unprecedented detail and accuracy.

Hossain MK. Silver-Decorated Silicon Nanostructures: Fabrication and Characterization of Nanoscale Terraces as an Efficient SERS-Active Substrate. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 24:ijms24010106. [PMID: 36613545 PMCID: PMC9820282 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24010106] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2022] [Revised: 12/08/2022] [Accepted: 12/15/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Rich and highly dense surface-enhanced Raman (SERS) hotspots available in the SERS-active platform are highly anticipated in SERS measurements. In this work, conventional silicon wafer was treated to have wide exposure to terraces available within the silicon nanostructures (Si-NSs). High-resolution field emission scanning electron microscopic (FESEM) investigations confirmed that the terraces were several microns wide and spread over different steps. These terraces were further decorated with silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) of different shapes and sizes to achieve SERS-active hotspots. Based on more than 150 events, a histogram of the size distribution of Ag-NPs indicated a relatively narrow size distribution, 29.64 ± 4.66 nm. The coverage density was estimated to be ~4 × 1010 cm-2. The SERS-activity of Ag-NPs -decorated Si-NSs was found to be enhanced with reference to those obtained in pristine Si-NSs. Finite difference time domain models were developed to support experimental observations in view of electromagnetic (EM) near-field distributions. Three archetype models; (i) dimer of same constituent Ag-NPs, (ii) dimer of different constituent Ag-NPs, and (iii) linear trimer of different constituent Ag-NPs were developed. EM near-field distributions were extracted at different incident polarizations. Si-NSs are well-known to facilitate light confinement, and such confinement can be cascaded within different Ag-NPs-decorated terraces of Si-NSs.

Abstract
Exosomes have been widely used in early cancer diagnosis as promising cancer biomarkers due to their abundant tumor-specific molecular information. In this study, we developed a sensitive and straightforward surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) aptasensor to detect exosomes based on gold nanostars-decorated molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanocomposites (MoS2-AuNSs). ROX-labeled aptamers (ROX-Apt) were assembled on MoS2-AuNSs surface as recognition probes that specifically bind with transmembrane protein CD63 (a representative surface marker on exosomes). Thus obvious ROX Raman signals were obtained through the synergistic Raman enhancement effect of AuNSs and MoS2 nanosheet. In presence of exosomes, ROX-Apt is preferentially tethered onto exosomes and released from the surface of nanocomposites, resulting in a decrease of the SERS signal. Expectedly, the as-fabricated SERS aptasensor was capable of detecting exosomes in a wide range from 55 to 5.5 × 105 particles μL-1 with a detection limit of 17 particles μL-1. Moreover, the aptasensor exhibited accepted stability and potential clinical applicability.

Abstract
Integrating nanoscale building blocks of low dimensionality (0D; i.e., spheres) into higher dimensional structures endows them and their corresponding materials with emergent properties non-existent or only weakly existent in the individual building blocks. Constructing 1D chains, 2D arrays and 3D superlattices using nanoparticles and colloids therefore continues to be one of the grand goals in colloid and nanomaterial science. Amongst these higher order structures, 1D colloidal chains are of particular interest, as they possess unique anisotropic properties. In recent years, the most relevant advances in 1D colloidal chain research have been made in novel synthetic methodologies and applications. In this review, we first address a comprehensive description of the research progress concerning various synthetic strategies developed to construct 1D colloidal chains. Following this, we highlight the amplified and emergent properties of the resulting materials, originating from the assembly of the individual building blocks and their collective behavior, and discuss relevant applications in advanced materials. In the discussion of synthetic strategies, properties, and applications, particular attention will be paid to overarching concepts, fresh trends, and potential areas of future research. We believe that this comprehensive review will be a driver to guide the interdisciplinary field of 1D colloidal chains, where nanomaterial synthesis, self-assembly, physical property studies, and material applications meet, to a higher level, and open up new research opportunities at the interface of classical disciplines.

Abstract
Until now, the green and facile synthesis of multicolor fluorescent silicon nanoparticles (SiNPs) with favorable biocompatibility for cellular imaging and biosensors is still a challenge. Herein, a facile one-step room temperature method for preparing fluorescent SiNPs displayed different emission wavelengths was reported. Green and red fluorescent SiNPs (G-SiNPs and R-SiNPs) were synthesized by adjusting the concentration of the reducing agent 2,4-diaminophenol hydrochloride when the amount of N-[3-(trimethoxysilyl)-propyl]-ethylenediamine was consistent. Characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, the results revealed that the G-SiNPs and R-SiNPs were assembled by polymerization of different building blocks, and the emission characteristics of these SiNPs were attributed to the difference in their structural composition and particle size. Interestingly, these fluorescent SiNPs exhibited excellent water solubility, salt tolerance, pH stability, photobleaching resistance, and low cytotoxicity, which facilitated multicolor cell imaging, and further led to these SiNPs were highly attractive in a variety of applications, such as multi-channel sensing and biological imaging. Furthermore, the R-SiNPs have shown the potential to detect acid phosphatase, which is a biomarker of prostate cancer.

Abstract
Nucleic acids, including deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA), are natural biopolymers composed of nucleotides that store, transmit, and express genetic information. Overexpressed or underexpressed as well as mutated nucleic acids have been implicated in many diseases. Therefore, nucleic acid tests (NATs) are extremely important. Inspired by intracellular DNA replication and RNA transcription, in vitro NATs have been extensively developed to improve the detection specificity, sensitivity, and simplicity. The principles of NATs can be in general classified into three categories: nucleic acid hybridization, thermal-cycle or isothermal amplification, and signal amplification. Driven by pressing needs in clinical diagnosis and prevention of infectious diseases, NATs have evolved to be a rapidly advancing field. During the past ten years, an explosive increase of research interest in both basic research and clinical translation has been witnessed. In this review, we aim to provide comprehensive coverage of the progress to analyze nucleic acids, use nucleic acids as recognition probes, construct detection devices based on nucleic acids, and utilize nucleic acids in clinical diagnosis and other important fields. We also discuss the new frontiers in the field and the challenges to be addressed.

Abstract
The reliable programmability of DNA origami makes it an extremely attractive tool for bottom-up self-assembly of complex nanostructures. Utilizing this property for the tuned arrangement of plasmonic nanoparticles holds great promise particularly in the field of biosensing. Plasmonic particles are beneficial for sensing in multiple ways, from enhancing fluorescence to enabling a visualization of the nanoscale dynamic actuation via chiral rearrangements. In this Perspective, we discuss the recent developments and possible future directions of DNA origami-enabled plasmonic sensing systems. We start by discussing recent advancements in the area of fluorescence-based plasmonic sensing using DNA origami. We then move on to surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy sensors followed by chiral sensing, both utilizing DNA origami nanostructures. We conclude by providing our own views on the future prospects for plasmonic biosensors enabled using DNA origami.

Abstract
Biosensors are small but smart devices responding to the external stimulus, widely used in many fields including clinical diagnosis, healthcare and environment monitoring, etc. Moreover, there is still a pressing need to fabricate sensitive, stable, reliable sensors at present. DNA origami technology is able to not only construct arbitrary shapes in two/three dimension but also control the arrangement of molecules with different functionalities precisely. The functionalization of DNA origami nanostructure endows the sensing system potential of filling in weak spots in traditional DNA-based biosensor. Herein, we mainly review the construction and sensing mechanisms of sensing platforms based on DNA origami nanostructure according to different signal output strategies. It will offer guidance for the application of DNA origami structures functionalized by other materials. We also point out some promising directions for improving performance of biosensors.

Abstract
DNA nanotechnology is a powerful and promising tool for the development of nanoscale devices for numerous and diverse applications. One of the greatest potential fields of application for DNA nanotechnology is in biomedicine, in particular biosensing. Thanks to the control over their size, shape, and fabrication, DNA origami represents a unique opportunity to assemble dynamic and complex devices with precise and predictable structural characteristics. Combined with the addressability and flexibility of the chemistry for DNA functionalization, DNA origami allows the precise design of sensors capable of detecting a large range of different targets, encompassing RNA, DNA, proteins, small molecules, or changes in physico-chemical parameters, that could serve as diagnostic tools. Here, we review some recent, salient developments in DNA origami-based sensors centered on optical detection methods (readout) with a special emphasis on the sensitivity, the selectivity, and response time. We also discuss challenges that still need to be addressed before this approach can be translated into robust diagnostic devices for bio-medical applications.

Abstract
Successful translation of laboratory-based surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) platforms to clinical applications requires multiplex and ultratrace detection of small biomarker molecules from a complex biofluid. However, these biomarker molecules generally exhibit low Raman scattering cross sections and do not possess specific affinity to plasmonic nanoparticle surfaces, significantly increasing the challenge of detecting them at low concentrations. Herein, we demonstrate a "confine-and-capture" approach for multiplex detection of two families of urine metabolites correlated with miscarriage risks, 5β-pregnane-3α,20α-diol-3α-glucuronide and tetrahydrocortisone. To enhance SERS signals by 1012-fold, we use specific nanoscale surface chemistry for targeted metabolite capture from a complex urine matrix prior to confining them on a superhydrophobic SERS platform. We then apply chemometrics, including principal component analysis and partial least-squares regression, to convert molecular fingerprint information into quantifiable readouts. The whole screening procedure requires only 30 min, including urine pretreatment, sample drying on the SERS platform, SERS measurements, and chemometric analyses. These readouts correlate well with the pregnancy outcomes in a case-control study of 40 patients presenting threatened miscarriage symptoms.

Abstract
This review is focused on recent developments of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) applications in Analytical Chemistry. The work covers advances in the fabrication methods of SERS substrates, including nanoparticles immobilization techniques and advanced nanopatterning with metallic features. Recent insights in quantitative and sampling methods for SERS implementation and the development of new SERS-based approaches for both qualitative and quantitative analysis are discussed. The advent of methods for pre-concentration and new approaches for single-molecule SERS quantification, such as the digital SERS procedure, has provided additional improvements in the analytical figures-of-merit for analysis and assays based on SERS. The use of metal nanostructures as SERS detection elements integrated in devices, such as microfluidic systems and optical fibers, provided new tools for SERS applications that expand beyond the laboratory environment, bringing new opportunities for real-time field tests and process monitoring based on SERS. Finally, selected examples of SERS applications in analytical and bioanalytical chemistry are discussed. The breadth of this work reflects the vast diversity of subjects and approaches that are inherent to the SERS field. The state of the field indicates the potential for a variety of new SERS-based methods and technologies that can be routinely applied in analytical laboratories.

Abstract
In this manuscript, we demonstrate that the in situ growth of fluorescent silicon (Si) nanomaterials is stimulated when organosilicane molecules interact with different green teas, producing multifunctional Si nanomaterials with controllable zero- (e.g., nanoparticles), two- (e.g., nanosheets), and three- (e.g., nanospheres) dimensional nanostructures. Such green tea-originated Si nanomaterials (GTSN) exhibit strong fluorescence (quantum yield: ∼19-30%) coupled with ultrahigh photostability, as well as intrinsic anti-cancer activity with high specificity (e.g., the GTSN can accurately kill various cancer cells, rather than normal cells). Taking advantage of these unique merits, we further performed systematic in vitro and in vivo experiments to interrogate the mechanism of the green tea- and GTSN-related cancer prevention. Typically, we found that the GTSN entered the cell nuclei and induced cell apoptosis/death of cancer cells. The prepared GTSN were observed in vivo to accumulate in the tumour tissues after 14-d post-injection, leading to an efficient inhibition of tumour growth. Our results open new avenues for designing novel multifunctional and side-effect-free Si nanomaterials with controllable structures.
