Abstract
Herein, a flexible near-infrared (NIR) light-actuated photoelectrochemical (PEC) lab-on-paper device was constructed toward miRNA-122 detection, utilizing the combination of DNA-programmed NaYF4/Yb,Tm upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) and the Z-scheme AgI/WO3 heterojunction grown in situ on gold nanoparticle-decorated 3D cellulose fibers. The UCNPs were employed as light transducers for converting NIR light into ultraviolet/visible (UV/vis) light to excite the nanojunction. The multiple diffraction of NaYF4/Yb,Tm matched the absorption band of the Z-scheme AgI/WO3 heterojunction, resulting in enhanced PEC photocurrent output. This prepared Z-scheme heterojunction effectively directed charge migration and highly facilitated the electron-hole pair separation. Target miRNA-122 activated the nonenzyme catalytic hairpin assembly signal amplification strategy, generating duplexes which caused the exfoliation of NaYF4/Yb,Tm UCNPs from the biosensor electrode and lowered the photocurrent under 980 nm irradiation. Under optimized circumstances, the proposed NIR-actuated PEC lab-on-paper device presented accurate miRNA-122 detection within a wide linear range of 10 fM-100 nM with a low limit of detection of 2.32 fM, providing a reliable strategy in the exploration of NIR-actuated PEC biosensors for low-cost, high-performance bioassay in clinical applications.

Abstract
The catalytic ability of nanozymes has become an enzymology hotspot in the field of application. Most nanozymes were characterized to simultaneously have oxidase-like and peroxidase-like activities, but the practical application often focuses on certain activity; other complex activities may cause interference. The peroxidase-like activity (POD-like activity) of nanozymes have been widely used in the colorimetric detection of H2O2 or substances producing H2O2 as an intermediate, such as the detection of small biological molecules with the oxidative reaction of a chromogenic reagent in the presence of POD-like nanozymes. In this work, we used polydopamine (PDA) as the surface coating of Cu-CeO2 nanosheets (PDA@ Cu-CeO2), which enhanced peroxidase-like activity while inhibiting their oxidase-like activity, providing a feasible method for the sensitive determination of cholesterol by integrating visual colorimetric detection and a smartphone application as a readout. The absorbance intensity and RGB values displayed a linear range on cholesterol from 0.05 to 1.2 mM with the LOD (limit of detection) of 42.7 and 99.4 μM. In addition, the method is expected to apply in detecting cholesterol in human serum with acceptable accuracy.

Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR)-responsive bioassays based on upconversion nanoparticle (UCNP) incorporating high-performance semiconductors have been developed by researchers, but most lack satisfactory ultrasensitivity for exceedingly trace amounts of target. Herein, for the first time, the CRISPR/Cas13a system is combined with cascade DNA circuits, fluorescent resonance energy transfer (FRET) effect, and luminescence-confined UCNPs-bonded CuInS2/ZnO p-n heterostructures-functionalized paper-working electrode to construct dual-signal-on paper-supported NIR-irradiated photoelectrochemical (PEC) (NIR-PEC) and upconversion luminescence (UCL) bioassay for high-sensitive quantification of miRNA-106a (miR-106a). By constructing an ideal FAM-labeled aminating molecular beacon (FAM-H2) model, a relatively good FRET ratio between the UCNP and FAM (≈85.3%) can be achieved. In the existence of miR-106a, the hairpin-structure FAM-H2 was unwound, bringing about the distance increase of UCNP and FAM and the restraint of FRET. Accordingly, both the NIR-PEC signal and the UCL intensity gradually recovered distinctly. Unlike conventional single-mode PEC sensors, with NIR excitation, the designed dual-mode sensing system could implement minimized misdiagnose assay and quantitative miR-106a determination with low detection limits, that is, 76.54 and 51.36 aM for NIR-PEC and UCL detection, respectively. This work not only broadens the horizon of application of the CRISPR/Cas13a strategy toward biosensing but also constructs a new structure of the UCNP-semiconductor in the exploration of efficient NIR-responsive tools and inspires the construction of a no-misdiagnosed and novel biosensor for dual-mode liquid biopsy.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD), one of the most common chronic neurodegenerative diseases, is characterized by memory impairment, synaptic dysfunction, and character mutations. The pathological features of AD are Aβ accumulation, tau protein enrichment, oxidative stress, and immune inflammation. Since the pathogenesis of AD is complicated and ambiguous, it is still challenging to achieve early detection and timely treatment of AD. Due to the unique physical, electrical, magnetic, and optical properties of nanoparticles (NPs), nanotechnology has shown great potential for detecting and treating AD. This review provides an overview of the latest developments in AD detection via nanotechnology based on NPs with electrochemical sensing, optical sensing, and imaging techniques. Meanwhile, we highlight the important advances in nanotechnology-based AD treatment through targeting disease biomarkers, stem-cell therapy and immunotherapy. Furthermore, we summarize the current challenges and present a promising prospect for nanotechnology-based AD diagnosis and intervention.

Abstract
Nowadays, lung cancer is one of the most dangerous cancers threatening human life all over the world. As a crucial biomarker, cytokeratin 19 fragment 21-1 (CYFRA 21-1) is extraordinary important for diagnosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In this work, we synthesized hollow SnO2/CdS QDs/CdCO3 heterostructured nanocubes with high and stable photocurrents, which applied to construction of a sandwich-typed photoelectrochemical (PEC) immunosensor for detection of CYFRA 21-1, integrated by in-situ catalytic precipitation strategy with home-built PtPd alloy anchored MnCo-CeO2 (PtPd/MnCo-CeO2) nanozyme for synergistic amplification. The interfacial electron transfer mechanism upon visible-light irradiation was investigated in details. Further, the PEC responses were seriously quenched by the specific immunoreaction and precipitation catalyzed by the PtPd/MnCo-CeO2 nanozyme. The established biosensor showed a wider linear range of 0.001-200 ng mL-1 and a lower limit of detection (LOD = 0.2 pg mL-1, S/N = 3), coupled by exploring such analysis even in diluted human serum sample. This work opens a constructive avenue to develop ultrasensitive PEC sensing platforms for detecting diverse cancer biomarkers in clinic.

Abstract
Organophosphorus pesticides (OP) have extensive applications in agriculture, while their overuse causes inevitable residues in food, soil, and water, ultimately being harmful to human health and even causing diverse dysfunctions. Herein, a novel colorimetric platform was established for quantitative determination of malathion based on peroxidase mimic AuPt alloy decorated on CeO2 nanorods (CeO2@AuPt NRs). The synthesized nanozyme oxidized colorless 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) in the presence of H2O2. Besides, the oxidized TMB was inversely reduced by ascorbic acid (AA), which were originated from hydrolysis of L-ascorbic acid-2-phosphate (AA2P) with the assistance of acid phosphatase (ACP). Based upon this observation ACP analysis was explored by colorimetry, showing a wid linear range of 0.2 ~ 3.5 U L-1 and a low limit of detection (LOD = 0.085 U L-1, S/N = 3). Furthermore, malathion present in the colorimetric system inhibited the activity of ACP and simultaneously affected the generation of AA, in turn promoting the recovery of the chromogenic reaction. Based on this, the LOD was decreased to 1.5 nM (S/N = 3) for the assay of malathion with a wide linear range of 6 ~ 100 nM. This simple colorimetric platform provides some informative guidelines for determination of other pesticides and disease markers.

Abstract
Amyloid-β (Aβ) protein is considered to be a key biomarker that is closely associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). The level of Aβ, particularly its subtle fluctuation, indicates early neuropathological changes, which poses a considerable challenge in predicting AD, considering the detection limit of sensing technologies. Herein, a new label-free sensor based on luminol electrochemiluminescence (ECL) was proposed by developing a close-packed monolayered-SiO2 array with gold (Au) nanoparticles (NPs) entrapped in their gaps as the basal electrode. The well-organized SiO2 NPs with a quasiphotonic crystal structure amplified the ECL signal via light scattering, while Au NPs amplified the signal by directly catalyzing luminol oxidation. Owing to the dual signal amplification, the proposed electrode furnished an ∼64-fold-intensified ECL signal of luminol as the sensing background. Further, the as-prepared ECL electrode served as the substrate to develop an aptasensor for the sensitive detection of Aβ. The inhibition of the ECL signal due to the suppressed diffusion of luminol to the sensor surface acts as an indicator to quantify the amount of Aβ. The transfer dynamics mechanism provides a label-free sensing strategy and facilitates the high sensitivity of the aptasensor for Aβ detection. Under optimal conditions, the developed aptasensor exhibits an ultrasensitive performance for Aβ with a very low limit of detection of 5 fM, providing a new prospect for clinical research on Aβ and a promising approach in the field of ECL sensing.

Abstract
A dual-mode lab-on-paper device based on BiVO4/FeOOH nanocomposites as an efficient generating photoelectrochemical (PEC)/colorimetric signal reporter has been successfully constructed by integration of the lab-on-paper sensing platform and PEC/colorimetric detection technologies for sensitive detection of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). Concretely, the BiVO4/FeOOH nanocomposites were in situ synthesized onto the paper-working electrode (PWE) through hydrothermal synthesis of the BiVO4 layer on cellulose fibers (paper-based BiVO4) which were initially modified by Au nanoparticles for improving the conductivity of three dimensional PWE, and then the photo-electrodeposition of FeOOH onto the paper-based BiVO4 to construct the paper-based BiVO4/FeOOH for the portable dual-mode lab-on-paper device. The obtained nanocomposites with an FeOOH needle-like structure deposited on the BiVO4 layer exhibits enhanced PEC response activity due to its effective separation of the electron-hole pair which could further accelerate the PEC conversion efficiency during the sensing process. With the introduction of CEA targets onto the surface of nanocomposite-modified PWE assisted by the interaction with the CEA antibody from a specific recognition property, a signal-off PEC signal state with a remarkable photocurrent response decreasing trend can be achieved, realizing the quantitative detection of CEA with the PEC signal readout mode. By means of a smart origami paper folding, the colorimetric signal readout is achieved by catalyzing 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to generate blue oxidized TMB in the presence of H2O2 due to the satisfied enzyme-like catalytic activity of the needle-like structure, FeOOH, thereby achieving the dual-mode signal readout system for the proposed lab-on-paper device. Under the optimal conditions, the PEC and colorimetric signals measurement were effectively carried out, and the corresponding linear ranges were 0.001-200 ng·mL-1 and 0.5-100 ng·mL-1 separately, with the limit of detection of 0.0008 and 0.013 ng·mL-1 for each dual-mode. The prepared lab-on-paper device also presented a successful application in serum samples for the detection of CEA, providing a potential pathway for the sensitive detection of target biomarkers in clinical application.

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.

A Paper-Based Photoelectrochemical Sensing Platform Based on In Situ Grown ZnO/ZnIn 2S 4 Heterojunctions onto Paper Fibers for Sensitively Detecting AFP. BIOSENSORS 2022; 12:bios12100818. [PMID: 36290955 PMCID: PMC9599276 DOI: 10.3390/bios12100818] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2022] [Revised: 09/23/2022] [Accepted: 09/28/2022] [Indexed: 06/06/2023]
Abstract
Nowadays, developing a cost-effective, easy-to-operate, and efficient signal amplification platform is of important to microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPAD) for end-use markets of point-of-care (POC) assay applications. Herein, an ultrasensitive, paper-based photoelectrochemical (PEC) bioassay platform is constructed by in situ grown ZnO/ZnIn2S4 heterojunctions onto paper fibers, which acted as photoactive signal amplification probes for enhancing the sensitivity of antibodies-based diagnostic assays, for the sensitive detection of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) targets. The crystalline flake-like ZnIn2S4 composited with hexagonal nanorods (NRs) morphology of ZnO is an in situ grown, at the first time, onto cellulose fibers surface supported with Au nanoparticle (Au NP) modification to improve conductivity of the device working zone. The obtained composites on paper fibers are implemented as a flexible paper-based photoelectrode to realize remarkable performance of the fabricated μPAD, resulting from the enhanced PEC activity of heterojunctions with effective electron-hole pair separation for accelerating photoelectric conversion efficiency of the sensing process under light irradiation. Once the target AFP was introduced into the biosensing interface assistant, with a specific recognition interaction of AFP antibody, a drastically photocurrent response was generated, in view of the apparent steric effects. With the concentration increase of AFP targets, more immune conjugates could be confined onto the biosensing interface, eventually leading to the quantitative decrease of photocurrent intensity. Combined with an ingenious origami design and permitting the hydrophobic/hydrophilic conversion procedure in the bioassay process, the ultrasensitive PEC detection of AFP targets was realized. Under the optimized conditions, the level of AFP could be sensitively tracked by the prepared μPAD with a liner range from 0.1 to 100 ng mL-1 and limit of detection of 0.03 ng mL-1. This work provides a great potential application for highly selective and sensitive POC testing of AFP, and finally, developments for clinical disease diagnosis.

Abstract
In this work, a CRISPR/Cas12a initiated switchable ternary electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor combined with a Co3O4@Au nanoemitter is presented for the in vitro monitoring of miRNA-141. Benefiting from the advantages of high-throughput cargo payload capability and superconductivity, three-dimensional reduced graphene oxide (3D-rGO) was designated as an introductory conducting stratum of a paper working electrode (PWE). With the collaborative participation of Co3O4@Au NPs, the transmutation of TPrA in the Ru(bpy)32+/TPrA system can be riotously expedited into exorbitant free radical ions TPrA•, which provoked the exaggeration of the ECL signal. Moreover, the programmable enzyme-free hybrid chain reaction (HCR) amplifier on the PWE surface accurately anchored the assembly of nucleic acid tandem and accomplished the secondary recursion of the signal. Impressively, the multifunctional CRISPR/Cas12a with nonspecific cis/trans-splitting decomposition manipulated the photoswitch of the "on-off" signal state that avoided the false-positive diagnosis. The presented multistrategy cooperative biosensor demonstrated extraordinary sensitivity and specificity, with a low detection limit of 3.3 fM (S/N = 3) in the concentration scope from 10 fM to 100 nM, which fully corresponded to the expectation. Overall, this innovative methodology paved a generous avenue for evaluating multifarious biotransformations and provided a tremendous impetus to the development of real-time diagnosis and clinical detection of other biomarkers.

Abstract
In this work, novel dual-mode lab-on-paper devices based on in situ grown WO3/BiVO4 heterojunctions onto cellulose fibers, as signal amplification probes, were successfully fabricated by the integration of photoelectrochemical (PEC)/colorimetric analysis technologies into a paper sensing platform for the ultrasensitive detection of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP). Specifically, to achieve an impressive PEC performance of the lab-on-paper device, the WO3/BiVO4 heterojunction was in situ grown onto the surface of cellulose fibers assisted with Au nanoparticle (Au NP) functionalization for enhancing the conductivity of the working zone of the device. With the target concentration increased, more immune conjugates could be captured by the proposed paper photoelectrode, which could lead to a quantitative decrease in the photocurrent intensity, eventually realizing the accurate PEC signal readout. To meet the requirement of end-user application, a colorimetric signal readout system was designed for the lab-on-paper device based on the color reaction of 3,3'5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) oxidized by WO3/BiVO4 nanoflowers in the presence of H2O2. Noticeably, it is the first time that the WO3/BiVO4 heterojunction is in situ grown onto cellulose fibers, which enhances the sensitivity in view of both their PEC activity and catalytic ability. By controlling the conversion process of hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity on the lab-on-paper device combined with diverse origami methods, the dual-mode PEC/colorimetric signal output for the ultrasensitive AFP detection was realized. Under optimal conditions, the proposed dual-mode lab-on-paper device could enable the sensitive PEC/colorimetric diagnosis of AFP in the linear range of 0.09-100 ng mL-1 and 5-100 ng mL-1 with the limit of detection of 0.03 and 1.47 ng mL-1, respectively.

Abstract
Paper-based analytical devices (PADs), including lateral flow assays (LFAs), dipstick assays and microfluidic PADs (μPADs), have a great impact on the healthcare realm and environmental monitoring. This is especially evident in developing countries because PADs-based point-of-care testing (POCT) enables to rapidly determine various (bio)chemical analytes in a miniaturized, cost-effective and user-friendly manner. Low sensitivity and poor specificity are the main bottlenecks associated with PADs, which limit the entry of PADs into the real-life applications. The application of nanomaterials in PADs is showing great improvement in their detection performance in terms of sensitivity, selectivity and accuracy since the nanomaterials have unique physicochemical properties. In this review, the research progress on the nanomaterial-based PADs is summarized by highlighting representative recent publications. We mainly focus on the detection principles, the sensing mechanisms of how they work and applications in disease diagnosis, environmental monitoring and food safety management. In addition, the limitations and challenges associated with the development of nanomaterial-based PADs are discussed, and further directions in this research field are proposed.
