Abstract
DNA nanostructures, with their fascinating luminescent and detecting capabilities, provide a basis that can accommodate a wide range of applications. The unique electronic configurations, and physical and chemical properties of aptamer-assembled gold nanoclusters (apt-AuNCs) as a novel type of fluorophore have gradually piqued the interest of the scientific community. Bending DNA sequences and other templates/legends as a stabilizing agent with Au metal has produced an abundance of biosensors, along with catalytic and imaging properties. This review article summarizes the synthesis, conjugation tactics, advantages, and sensing mechanisms of AuNCs aptasensor after providing a brief introduction to the topic. Moreover, the application of DNA/aptamer functionalization has been briefly discussed in the fields of food safety and quality, catalysis, clinical diagnosis, cancer cell bioimaging, detection of cancer cell indicators, and therapy. We also concluded the current obstacles and made recommendations about the future prospects of AuNCs for fundamental research and applications in line with the developments in DNA/aptamer-AuNCs.

Cas12a-based direct visualization of nanoparticle-stabilized fluorescence signal for multiplex detection of DNA methylation biomarkers. Biosens Bioelectron 2024; 244:115810. [PMID: 37924654 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115810] [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: 09/11/2023] [Revised: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/30/2023] [Indexed: 11/06/2023]
Abstract
The CRISPR-Cas12a RNA-guided complexes hold immense promise for nucleic acid detection. However, limitations arise from their specificity in detecting off-targets and the stability of the signal molecules. Here, we have developed a platform that integrates multiplex amplification and nanomolecular-reporting signals, allowing us to detect various clinically relevant nucleic acid targets with enhanced stability, sensitivity, and visual interpretation. Through the electrostatic co-assembly of the Oligo reporter with oppositely charged nanoparticles, we observed a significant enhancement in its stability in low-pollution environments, reaching up to a threefold increase compared to the original version. Additionally, the fluorescence efficiency was expanded by three orders of magnitude, broadening the detection range considerably. Utilizing a multiplex strategy, this assay can accomplish simultaneous detection of multiple targets and single-point indication detection of nine specific targets. This significant advancement heightened the sensitivity of disease screening and improved the accuracy of diagnosing disease-related changes. We tested this assay in a colorectal cancer model, demonstrating that it can identify DNA methylation features at the aM-level within 40-60 min. Validation using clinical samples yielded consistent results with qPCR and bisulfite sequencing, affirming the assay's reliability and potential for clinical applications.

Abstract
Serving as the basis of cell life, interactions between nucleic acids and proteins play essential roles in fundamental cellular processes. Aptamers are unique single-stranded oligonucleotides generated by in vitro evolution methods, possessing the ability to interact with proteins specifically. Altering the structure of aptamers will largely modulate their interactions with proteins and further affect related cellular behaviors. Recently, with the in-depth research of aptamer-protein interactions, the analytical assays based on their interactions have been widely developed and become a powerful tool for biomolecular detection. There are some insightful reviews on aptamers applied in protein detection, while few systematic discussions are from the perspective of regulating aptamer-protein interactions. Herein, we comprehensively introduce the methods for regulating aptamer-protein interactions and elaborate on the detection techniques for analyzing aptamer-protein interactions. Additionally, this review provides a broad summary of analytical assays based on the regulation of aptamer-protein interactions for detecting biomolecules. Finally, we present our perspectives regarding the opportunities and challenges of analytical assays for biological analysis, aiming to provide guidance for disease mechanism research and drug discovery.

Abstract
A detailed kinetic investigation of As(III) oxidation was performed on gold surface within pH between ∼3.0 and ∼9.0. It was found that the As(III) oxidation on the gold surface follows a purely adsorption-controlled process irrespective of pH. The evaluated adsorption equilibrium constant decreased from 3.21 × 105 to 1.61 × 105 mol L-1 for acidic to basic medium, which implies the strong affinity of the arsenic species in the acidic medium. Besides, the estimation of Gibbs free energy revealed that an acidic medium promotes arsenic oxidation on gold surface. In mechanistic aspect, the oxidation reaction adopts a stepwise pathway for acidic medium and a concerted pathway for neutral and basic medium. From the substantial kinetic evaluation, it is established that a conducive and compatible environment for the oxidation of arsenic was found in an acidic medium rather than a basic or neutral medium on gold surface. Besides, in sensitivity concern, neutral and highly acidic medium is quite favourable for the arsenite oxidation on gold surface.

Biosens Bioelectron 2022; 215:114556. [PMID: 35870337 PMCID: PMC9288240 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2022.114556] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2022] [Revised: 07/04/2022] [Accepted: 07/07/2022] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
Herein, an aptasensor was designed to detect the receptor-binding domain of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2-RBD) based on the encapsulation of the methylene blue (MB) inside the mesoporous silica film (MPSF), and an aptamer as an electrochemical probe, a porous matrix, and a bio-gatekeeper, respectively. The signal analysis of the proposed aptasensor indicated that the surface coverage of the encapsulated MB inside the MPSF (MB@MPSF) was 1.9 nmol/cm2. Aptamers were capped the MB@MPSF, avoiding the release of MB into the solution via the electrostatic attraction between the positively charged amino groups of the MPSF and negatively charged phosphate groups of the aptamers. Therefore, the electrochemical signal of the encapsulated MB in the absence of the SARS-CoV-2-RBD was high. In the presence of SARS-CoV-2-RBD, the aptamers that had a high affinity to the SARS-CoV-2-RBD molecules were removed from the electrode surface to interact with SARS-CoV-2-RBD. It gave rise to the release of the MB from the MPSF to the solution and washed away on the electrode surface. Therefore, the electrochemical signal of the aptasensor decreased. The electrochemical signal was recorded with a square wave voltammetry technical in the range of 0.5-250 ng/mL of SARS-CoV-2-RBD in a saliva sample. The limit of detection was found to be 0.36 ng/mL. Furthermore, the selectivity factor values of the proposed aptasensor to 32 ng/mL SARS-CoV-2-RBD in the presence of C-reactive protein, hemagglutinin, and neuraminidase of influenza A virus were 35.9, 11.7, and 17.37, respectively, indicating the high selectivity of the proposed aptasensor.

Abstract
Arsenic is a ubiquitously found metalloid in our ecosystem because of natural and anthropogenic activities. People exposed to a higher level of arsenic become susceptible to several disorders, including cancer. According to current statistics, the population chronically exposed to arsenic has surpassed 200 million. Therefore, its detection in our environment is of great importance. There are many analytical techniques for the assessment of arsenic in different kinds of environmental samples. Among these techniques, the biosensor is considered a convenient platform and a widely applied analytical device for rapid qualitative and quantitative analysis in the field of environmental monitoring, food safety, and disease diagnosis. Today, there is a trend of including nanomaterials in sensors and biosensors because it empowers researchers to explore new arsenic detection methods and to enhance their analytical capabilities. In this review article, we summarized the latest developments in arsenic biosensors in particular with emphasis on the works based on cell-free approaches that are protein/enzyme-based, DNA-based, and aptamer-based utilizing various transduction platforms. In the meantime, we compared the capabilities that were related to these cell-free arsenic biosensors. This review article also highlights the development and application of novel nanomaterials for arsenic detection.

Abstract
The combination of electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) and aptamer‐gated indicator delivering (gAID) magnetic mesoporous silica nanoparticles embedded into glass fibre paper functionalised with poly(ethyleneglycol) and N‐(3‐triethoxysilylpropyl)diethanolamine allowed the development of a rapid test that detects penicillin directly in diluted milk down to 50±9 ppt in <5 min. Covalent attachment of the aptamer “cap” to the silica scaffold enabled pore closure through non‐covalent electrostatic interactions with surface amino groups, while binding of penicillin led to a folding‐up of the aptamer thus releasing the ECL reporter Ru(bpy)32+ previously loaded into the material and letting it be detected after lateral flow by a smartphone camera upon electrochemical excitation with a screen printed electrode inserted into a 3D‐printed holder. The approach is simple, generic and presents advantages with respect to sensitivity, measurement uncertainty and robustness compared with conventional fluorescence or electrochemical detection, especially for point‐of‐need analyses of challenging matrices and analytes at ultra‐trace levels.

Abstract
Excessive use of pesticides can cause contamination of the environment and agricultural products that are directly threatening human life and health. Therefore, in the process of food safety supervision, it is crucial to conduct sensitive and rapid detection of pesticide residues. The recognition element is the vital component of sensors and methods for fast testing pesticide residues in food. Improper recognition elements may lead to defects of testing methods, such as poor stability, low sensitivity, high economic costs, and waste of time. We can use the molecular biological technique to address these challenges as a good strategy for recognition element production and modification. Herein, we review the molecular biological methods of five specific recognition elements, including aptamers, genetic engineering antibodies, DNAzymes, genetically engineered enzymes, and whole-cell-based biosensors. In addition, the application of these identification elements combined with biosensor and immunoassay methods in actual detection was also discussed. The purpose of this review was to provide a valuable reference for further development of rapid detection methods for pesticide residues.

Abstract
A complex of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and fluorescein (FL) dye nanoparticles of size between 50 and 100 nm has been prepared and its sensing performance for detection of As(III) in drinking water has been reported. When As(III) binds to the rGO-FL nanoparticles the relative quenching of fluorescence was increased with increase in As(III) concentration thus provide two linear calibration ranges (0-4.0 mmol L-1 and 4.0-10 mmol L-1). The fluorescence quenching mechanism was investigated by using time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy and molecular modeling. The detection limit of this sensor has been determined as equal to 0.96 µg L-1 which is about 10 times lower than the WHO stipulated standard for As(III) in drinking water (10 µg L-1). The analytical performance and potential application of the nanosensor was compared to commercial field kits used in arsenic monitoring. The sensor proposed in this study is fast, sensitive and accurate for detection of As(III) in drinking water and environmental samples.

[PMID: 34209675 PMCID: PMC8309014 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics13070982] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2021] [Revised: 06/21/2021] [Accepted: 06/22/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Mesoporous silica microparticles functionalized with lactose for the specific release of essential oil components (EOCs) in the small intestine are presented. In vitro and in vivo intestinal models were applied to validate the microparticles (M41-EOC-L), in which the presence of lactase acts as the triggering stimulus for the controlled release of EOCs. Among the different microdevices prepared (containing thymol, eugenol and cinnamaldehyde), the one loaded with cinnamaldehyde showed the most significant Caco-2 cell viability reduction. On the other hand, interaction of the particles with enterocyte-like monolayers showed a reduction of EOCs permeability when protected into the designed microdevices. Then, a microdevice loaded with cinnamaldehyde was applied in the in vivo model of Wistar rat. The results showed a reduction in cinnamaldehyde plasma levels and an increase in its concentration in the lumen of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). The absence of payload release in the stomach, the progressive release throughout the intestine and the prolonged stay of the payload in the GIT-lumen increased the bioavailability of the encapsulated compound at the site of the desired action. These innovative results, based on the specific intestinal controlled delivery, suggest that the M41-payload-L could be a potential hybrid microdevice for the protection and administration of bioactive molecules in the small intestine and colon.

Abstract
Many important human diseases, and especially cancer, have been related to the overproduction of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dG). This molecule is a product of oxidative stress processes over nucleophilic bases in DNA. In this work, an aptasensor for the rapid, selective and accurate detection of this oncomarker is presented. The aptasensor consists of a nanoporous anodic alumina material loaded with a dye and is functionalized with an aptamer-based "molecular gate". In the presence of target 8-oxo-dG, the capping aptamer displaces from the surface due to the high affinity of the analyte with the capping aptamer, thus inducing delivery of the preloaded fluorescent dye. In contrast, in the absence of 8-oxo-dG, a poor payload delivery is accomplished. This aptamer-based nanodevice has great sensitivity for 8-oxo-dG, resulting in a LOD of 1 nM and a detection time of ca. 60 min. Moreover, the aptasensor is able to accurately detect 8-oxo-dG in unmodified urine and serum without pre-concentration treatments. This diagnostic tool is validated in a set of 38 urine and serum samples from patients diagnosed of colorectal cancer and control patients. These samples are also analyzed using a standardized and specific ELISA kit. The aptasensor displays excellent sensitivity (95.83/100%) and specificity (80/100%) for 8-oxo-dG detection in serum and urine samples, respectively. Our results may serve as a basis for the development of generalized fluorogenic diagnostic platforms for the easy diagnosis of cancer in biofluids as well as for monitoring therapeutic treatments and detection of relapses without the use of expensive equipment or trained personnel.

Abstract
Circulating microRNAs have emerged as potential diagnostic biomarkers. The deregulation of the microRNA miR-99a-5p has been previously described as an effective biomarker of early breast cancer. Herein, we present a new nanoporous anodic alumina (NAA)-based biosensor that can detect plasma miR-99a-5p with high sensitivity and selectivity. NAA pores are loaded with rhodamine B and capped with a specific oligonucleotide that is able to block cargo release until the target is present. In the presence of miR-99a-5p, the capping oligonucleotide recognizes the miR-99a-5p sequence and displaces it allowing the release of the encapsulated dye. This method is able to successfully distinguish healthy controls from breast cancer patients, even at early stages with high efficiency, showing the presented system as a promising tool for breast cancer detection.

Abstract
Cellular senescence is a state of stable cell cycle arrest that can negatively affect the regenerative capacities of tissues and can contribute to inflammation and the progression of various aging-related diseases. Advances in the in vivo detection of cellular senescence are still crucial to monitor the action of senolytic drugs and to assess the early onset or accumulation of senescent cells. Here, we describe a naphthalimide-styrene-based probe (HeckGal) for the detection of cellular senescence both in vitro and in vivo. HeckGal is hydrolyzed by the increased lysosomal β-galactosidase activity of senescent cells, resulting in fluorescence emission. The probe was validated in vitro using normal human fibroblasts and various cancer cell lines undergoing senescence induced by different stress stimuli. Remarkably, HeckGal was also validated in vivo in an orthotopic breast cancer mouse model treated with senescence-inducing chemotherapy and in a renal fibrosis mouse model. In all cases, HeckGal allowed the unambiguous detection of senescence in vitro as well as in tissues and tumors in vivo. This work is expected to provide a potential technology for senescence detection in aged or damaged tissues.

Abstract
A short ssDNA (Apt-21) rationally truncated from the parent 100 nt As(III) aptamer was used for colorimetric determination of As(III). Apt-21 serves dual functions, i.e., recognition of trace As(III) and regulation of AuNPs dispersion by surface attachment, while gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) functioned as colorimetric signal reporters. Under the optimal conditions, the ratio of the absorbance at 650 nm to 520 nm (A650/A520) of AuNPs changed proportionally with increasing concentration of As(III), which showed a linear relationship within the concentration ranges 1-30 ppb and 30-100 ppb with a detection limit of 0.18 ppb. The feasibility of this assay was demonstrated by determining As(III) in spiked water samples with mean recoveries ranging from 96.5-107.1%.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Environmental pollutants are threat to human beings. Pollutants can lead to human health and environment hazards. The purpose of this review is to summarize the work done on detection of environmental pollutants using DNA nanosensors and challenges in the areas that can be focused for safe environment. RECENT FINDINGS Most of the DNA-based nanosensors designed so far use DNA as recognition element. ssDNA, dsDNA, complementary mismatched DNA, aptamers, and G-quadruplex DNA are commonly used as probes in nanosensors. More and more DNA sequences are being designed that can specifically detect various pollutants even simultaneously in complex milk, wastewater, soil, blood, tap water, river, and pond water samples. The feasibility of direct detection, ease of designing, and analysis makes DNA nanosensors fit for future point-of-care applications. SUMMARY DNA nanosensors are easy to design and have good sensitivity. DNA component and nanomaterials can be designed in a controlled manner to detect various environmental pollutants. This review identifies the recent advances in DNA nanosensor designing and opportunities available to design nanosensors for unexplored pathogens, antibiotics, pesticides, GMO, heavy metals, and other toxic pollutant.

Abstract
Pneumocystis pneumonia (PcP) is a disease produced by the opportunistic infection of the fungus Pneumocystis jirovecii. As delayed or unsuitable treatments increase the risk of mortality, the development of rapid and accurate diagnostic tools for PcP are of great importance. Unfortunately, current standard methods present severe limitations and are far from adequate. In this work, a time-competitive, sensitive and selective biosensor based on DNA-gated nanomaterials for the identification of P. jirovecii is presented. The biosensor consists of a nanoporous anodic alumina (NAA) scaffold which pores are filled with a dye reporter and capped with specific DNA oligonucleotides. In the presence of P. jirovecii genomic DNA, the gated biosensor is open, and the cargo is delivered to the solution where it is monitored through fluorescence spectroscopy. The use of capping oligonucleotides able to form duplex or triplex with P. jirovecii DNA is studied. The final diagnostic tool shows a limit of detection (LOD) of 1 nM of target complementary DNA and does not require previous amplification steps. The method was applied to identify DNA from P. jirovecii in unmodified bronchoalveolar lavage, nasopharyngeal aspirates, and sputum samples in 60 min. This is a promising alternative method for the routinely diagnosis of Pneumocystis pneumonia.

Abstract
A bio-inspired nanodevice for the selective and sensitive fluorogenic detection of 3,4-methylenedioxypyrovalerone (MDPV), usually known as Cannibal drug, is reported. The sensing nanodevice is based on mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs), loaded with a fluorescent reporter (rhodamine B), and functionalized on their external surface with a dopamine derivative (3), which specifically interacts with the recombinant human dopamine transporter (DAT), capping the pores. In the presence of MDPV, DAT detaches from the MSNs consequently, causing rhodamine B release and allowing drug detection. The nanosensor shows a detection limit of 5.2 μM, and it is able to detect the MDPV drug both in saliva and blood plasma samples.

Abstract
Introduction Many bacteria are responsible for infections in humans and plants, being found in vegetables, water, and medical devices. Most bacterial detection methods are time-consuming and take days to give the result. Aptamers are a promising alternative for a quick and reliable measurement technique to detect bacteria present in food products. Selected aptamers are DNA or RNA oligonucleotides that can bind with bacteria or other molecules with affinity and specificity for the target cells by the SELEX or cell-SELEX technique. This method is based on some rounds to remove the non-ligand oligonucleotides, leaving the aptamers specific to bind to the selected bacteria. Compared with conventional methodologies, the detection approach using aptamers is a rapid, low-cost form of analysis. Objective This review summarizes obtention methods and applications of aptamers in the food industry and biotechnology. Besides, different techniques with aptamers are presented, which enable more effective target detection. Conclusion Applications of aptamers as biosensors, or the association of aptamers with nanomaterials, may be employed in analyses by colorimetric, fluorescence, or electrical devices. Additionally, more efficient ways of sample preparation are presented, which can support food safety to provide human health, with a low-cost method for contaminant detection.Key points • Aptamers are promising for detecting contaminants outbreaks. • Studies are needed to identify aptamers for different targets. |

Abstract
As(III) is a toxic heavy metal which causes serious health problems. Therefore, the development of highly sensitive sensors for As(III) detection is of great significance. Herein, a turn-on luminescence resonance energy transfer (LRET) method based on luminous nanorods was designed for As(III) detection. Biotin-labelled As(III) aptamers were tagged to avidin functionalized luminous nanorods as energy donors, while graphene oxide (GO) acted as the energy acceptor. The adsorption of single-stranded DNA on graphene oxide resulted in the efficient quenching of the luminescence of the nanorods through the LRET process. In the presence of As(III), aptamers bonded to As(III) preferentially and resulted in the formation of aptamer-As(III) complexes. The aptamer-As(III) complexes were rubbed off from the GO surface due to their conformational change, which led to the recovery of the luminescence of the nanorods. A good linear relationship between the luminescence intensity and concentration of As(III) was obtained in the range from 1 to 50 ng·mL−1, with a detection limit of 0.5 ng·mL−1. Furthermore, the developed sensors showed good specificity towards As(III) and proved capable of detecting As(III) in the environment and food samples. The proposed time-resolved sensors provide a promising sensing strategy for the rapid and sensitive detection of As(III).

Abstract
Arsenic (As) is a highly toxic contaminant in the environment and a serious carcinogen for the human being. The toxicity of arsenic significantly threatens environmental and human health. The effective removing technology for arsenic remains challenging, and one of the reasons is due to the lack of powerful detection method in the complex environmental matrix. There is thus an urgent need to develop novel analytical methods for arsenic, preferably with the potential for the field-testing. To combat arsenic pollution and maintain a healthy environment and eco-system, many analytical methods have been developed for arsenic detection in various samples. Among these strategies, biosensors hold great promise for rapid detection of arsenic, in particular, nanomaterials-based aptamer sensors have attracted significant attention due to their simplicity, high sensitivity and rapidness. In this paper, we reviewed the recent development and applications of aptamer sensors (aptasensors) based-on nanomaterial for arsenic detection, in particular with emphasis on the works using optical and electrochemical technologies. We also discussed the recent novel technology in aptasensors development for arsenic detection, including nucleic acid amplification for signal enhancement and device integration for the portability of arsenic sensors. We are hoping this review could inspire further researches in developing novel nanotechnologies based aptasensors for possible on-site detection of arsenic.

Abstract
In the present work, for the first time we takes the advantages of chitosan-Nafion (Chit-Naf) composite as a highly conductive surface platform and a novel CNT-based signal amplification strategy to develop a lable-free impedimetricaptamer-based sensor for highly sensitive detection of As(III). The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) investigations surprisingly revealed that the glassy carbon electrode (GC) electrode modified with Chit-Naf composite had higher electron transfer kinetics compared the bare GC, GC/Naf and GC/Chit electrodes, which promises a great potential as an efficient platform in construction of biosensing assays. In this work, we employed a signal amplification strategy based on carbon nanotube-bovine serum albumin (CNT-BSA) hybrid system, by which sensitivity and detection limit of the aptasensor for the detection of As(III) were obtained to be 100.82 Ω nM-1 and a of 74 pM, respectively. This protocol provided one of the lowest limits of detection for As(III) on aptamer-based electrodes recently described in the literature. Moreover, the change of the optical absorptive properties of CNTs upon biorecognition interactions provides a way to detect the biorecognition process and thus allowed us to design an optical As(III) aptasensor using the UV-Vis spectroscopic method. The discrimination capability of the fabricated aptasensor for recognizing As(III) in the presence of other metal ions and a complex matrix of waste water samples was successfully investigated. This protocol provided a new method for sensitive detection of As(III) with considerable advantages in terms of reproducibility, selectivity, being mediator free and regenerability of the sensing interface.

Abstract
Globally, heavy metal ion (HMI) contamination is on the rise, posing an ever-increasing risk to ecological and human health. In recent years, great research effort has been devoted to the sensitive detection and quantitative analysis of HMIs. Low cost, sensitive, selective, and rapid methods for HMI detection are of growing demand, and HMI biosensors have great potential in meeting this need due to their timeliness, cost-effectiveness and convenience in operation. Glutathione is known for its strong ability to bind with toxic heavy metal ions, in addition to its water solubility, stable activity and ready availability. As a result, glutathione is becoming a molecular probe of choice in the preparation of sensors for sensitive, affordable, and accessible HMI detection. This review summarizes the results from various glutathione-based HMI detection strategies reported in recent years, which are categorized according to their signal transduction methods. Their operation and implementation, along with figures of merit such as limit of detection, selectivity, and response time, are discussed and compared. Based on the review, both individual HMI detection and simultaneous detection of multiple HMIs can be realized under specific reaction conditions, showing the great potential of glutathione-based detection to realize various types of practical HMI detection.

Abstract
A highly sensitive fluorescence biosensing system was designed for the detection of trace amounts of arsenic(III) (As3+) based on target-triggered successive signal amplification strategy. The specific recognition between the target As3+ and the aptamer sequence results in the release of the blocking DNA to trigger the subsequent signal amplification steps. Exonuclease III (Exo III)-mediated DNA recycling digest process is introduced into the sensing system to generate numerous Mg2+-dependent DNAzymes. After magnetic separation, the active DNAzyme with multiple turnovers could catalyze the continuous cleavage of the fluorophore-quencher-functionalized substrate strands, thus yielding a significantly amplified fluorescence signal for target detection. Due to the synergetic signal amplification of Exo III and DNAzyme, the fluorescent biosensor exhibits ultrasensitivity for As3+ monitoring, with a detection limit of 2 pM. Our established biosensor also displays excellent selectivity toward the target As3+ and has been successfully applied to the determination of As3+ in water samples with satisfactory accuracy. This sensing platform can be developed as a universal approach for the fast, sensitive, and accurate detection of aptamer-binding molecules.

Abstract
Mesoporous materials are ideal carriers for guest molecules and they have been widely used in analytical science. The unique mesoporous structure provides special properties including large specific surface area, tunable pore size, and excellent pore connectivity. The structural properties of mesoporous materials have been largely made use of to improve the performance of analytical methods. For instance, the large specific surface area of mesoporous materials can provide abundant active sites and increase the probability of contact between analytes and active sites to produce stronger signals, thus leading to the improvement of detection sensitivity. The connections between analytical performances and the structural properties of mesoporous materials have not been discussed previously. Understanding the "structure-performance relationship" is highly important for the development of analytical methods with excellent performance based on mesoporous materials. In this review, we discuss the structural properties of mesoporous materials that can be optimized to improve the analytical performance. The discussion is divided into five sections according to the analytical performances: (i) selectivity-related structural properties, (ii) sensitivity-related structural properties, (iii) response time-related structural properties, (iv) stability-related structural properties, and (v) recovery time-related structural properties.

A label-free fluorescent aptasensor for detection of kanamycin based on dsDNA-capped mesoporous silica nanoparticles and Rhodamine B. Anal Chim Acta 2018; 1030:142-147.

Abstract
Kanamycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic that can be useful against both gram negative and positive bacteria. However, if its serum levels are not controlled properly, it can cause serious side effects like ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity. The aim of this study was to design a simple and rapid fluorescent aptasensor for detection of kanamycin, based on Aptamer/Complementary strand (dsDNA)-capped mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) and Rhodamine B as a fluorescent probe. The MSNs pores were filled with Rhodamine B and then gated with dsDNA. In the presence of kanamycin, the aptamer sequence was separated from its complementary strand (CS), so that, uncovered the pores and leading to leakage of Rhodamine B. Thus, a significant increase in the fluorescence intensity was observed. The relative fluorescence intensity showed a linearity range from 24.75 nM to 137.15 nM of kanamycin with a detection limit of 7.5 nM. The aptasensor also showed to be useful for detection of kanamycin in serum samples and was able to distinguish kanamycin from other antibiotics, resulting in a sensitive, rapid and inexpensive method for kanamycin detection.

Abstract
Aptamers have been used as recognition elements for several molecules due to their great affinity and selectivity. Additionally, mesoporous nanomaterials have demonstrated great potential in sensing applications. Based on these concepts, we report herein the use of two aptamer-capped mesoporous silica materials for the selective detection of ochratoxin A (OTA). A specific aptamer for OTA was used to block the pores of rhodamine B-loaded mesoporous silica nanoparticles. Two solids were prepared in which the aptamer capped the porous scaffolds by using a covalent or electrostatic approach. Whereas the prepared materials remained capped in water, dye delivery was selectively observed in the presence of OTA. The protocol showed excellent analytical performance in terms of sensitivity (limit of detection: 0.5-0.05 nm), reproducibility, and selectivity. Moreover, the aptasensors were tested for OTA detection in commercial foodstuff matrices, which demonstrated their potential applicability in real samples.

Abstract
Arsenic (As) is an extremely toxic element that exists in the environment in different chemical forms. The detection of arsenic in potable water remains a challenging task. This study presents a highly sensitive enzymatic catalysis system for trace sensing of inorganic arsenic in water. This is the first enzyme-catalyzed fluorescence assay capable of detecting arsenic at concentrations below the allowable level adopted by the World Health Organization (10 ppb in drinking water). The enzyme catalytically produces fluorescent NADH in the presence of arsenate, which enables facile detection of arsenate at concentrations in the 0-200 ppb range. Calibration curves made at a set time interval allow accurate determination of unknown arsenic samples. This method holds potential for interfacing with automated analytical sampling systems to allow arsenic determinations in environmental health applications.
