Abstract
A novel iridium (III) complex bearing boron dipyrromethene (Bodipy) as the light-harvesting antenna has been synthesized and is firstly employed as photosensitizer to assemble a dye-sensitized NiO photocathode. The assembled photocathode exhibits significantly improved photoelectrochemical (PEC) performance. Integrating the prepared photocathode with hybridization chain reaction (HCR)--based signal amplification strategy, a cathodic PEC biosensor is proposed for the detection of microRNA-133a (miRNA-133a). In the presence of the target, HCR is triggered to form long duplex concatamers on the photocathode, which allows numerous manganese porphyrins (MnPP) to bind in the dsDNA groove. With the help of H2O2, MnPP with peroxidase-like activity catalyzes 4--chloro-1-naphthol (4-CN) to produce benzo--4--chlorohexadienone (4-CD) precipitate on the electrode, leading to a significant decrease of photocurrent signal. The decreased photocurrent correlates linearly with the target concentration from 0.1 fM to 1 nM with a detection limit of 66.2 aM (S/N = 3). The proposed PEC strategy exhibits delightful selectivity, reproducibility and stability.

Abstract
Interesting double-channel microfluidic chip integration with a sandwich-type cathodic photo-electrochemical (PEC) biosensor is utilized for ultrasensitive and efficient detection of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) based on a signal amplification strategy. The Pd nanoparticles loading on the I-doped bismuth oxybromide with oxygen vacancies (Pd/I:BiOBr-OVs) as a sensing platform can effectively enhance cathodic photocurrent response by improving the visible light absorption ability with I doping, facilitating the efficiency separation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs with OVs, and increasing the electron-transfer rate with Pd loading, where the photogenerated electron could be captured by dissolved O2 to boost generation of a superoxide anion radical (•O2-). To further enhance the PEC response, a novel superoxide dismutase loaded on gold@polyaniline (SOD-Au@PANI) as a signal amplification label is developed for incubating the detection antibody (dAb). It is particularly noteworthy that SOD can effectively catalyze dismutation of the •O2- to produce H2O2 and O2, and Au@PANI with a good reduction and catalytic property can catalyze the produced H2O2 into H2O and O2. Then, the produced O2 that has been dissolved or adsorbed can capture more photogenerated electrons, resulting in more electron-hole pairs to separate, so as to the cathodic photocurrent signal of this system which can be amplified more significantly. Therefore, a signal amplification cathodic PEC biosensor is prepared for sensitively detecting cTnI, in which a good linearity ranging from 0.1 pg/mL to 100 ng/mL with a low detection limit of 0.042 pg/mL is obtained. Furthermore, the proposed biosensor exhibits excellent sensitivity and high selectivity, which could be extended to detect other disease markers in biological analysis and early disease diagnosis.

Abstract
This work reports an efficient [(C6)2Ir(dppz)]+PF6- (C6 = coumarin 6 and dppz = dipyridophenazine)-sensitized NiO photocathode and its application in photoelectrochemical (PEC) bioanalysis field for the first time. This dye-sensitized NiO photocathode was found to exhibit a markedly enhanced cathodic photocurrent. A sensitive cathodic PEC platform was proposed integrating the as-prepared photocathode with enzyme-free cascaded amplification strategies of the catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) and the hybridization chain reaction (HCR) for DNA methyltransferase (MTase) assay. A hairpin DNA(HDam) with specific recognition site of Dam MTase in its stem was designed. The site of HDam was methylated in the presence of Dam MTase and then cut by endonuclease DpnI. The released loop fragment, as an initiator, triggered the CHA circuit and the follow-up HCR circuit, resulting in long dsDNA concatemers on the ITO electrode. Numerous [(C6)2Ir(dppz)]+PF6- were intercalated into dsDNA, and highly efficient signal amplification was realized. Benefiting from the superior iridium(III) complex-sensitized NiO photocathode and effective amplification strategy, a detection limit of 0.0028 U/mL for the determination of Dam MTase was achieved. Moreover, this work further demonstrated that these proposed tactics could be applied to screen Dam MTase activity inhibitors.
