[PMID: 38908044 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2024.114046] [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: 03/26/2024] [Revised: 05/30/2024] [Accepted: 06/15/2024] [Indexed: 06/24/2024]
Abstract
The present work explores the specificity of supramolecular assemblies comprising dialkylaminostyrylhetarene dye molecules incorporated into phosphatidylcholine (PC) or phosphatidylserine (PS) aggregates. In PS-based assemblies, the dyes demonstrate a concentration-dependent fluorescent response, distinguishing anionic proteins such as bovine serum albumin (BSA) and pepsin from lysozyme (LYZ) in aqueous solutions. Conversely, no significant response is observed when the dyes are incorporated into the well-organized bilayers of neutral PC. The fluorescent response arises from the binding of dyes to proteins, leading to the detachment of dye molecules from the assemblies, rather than from the binding of proteins to the assemblies, although the latter process is facilitated by electrostatic attraction. Thus, both the poor ordering of PS molecules and the interfacial arrangement of the dyes are prerequisites for the fluorescent response of dye-PS aggregates. The structure of the dyes significantly impacts the spectral features of dye-PS and dye-protein assemblies. An optimal dye structure has been identified for the recognition of BSA, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 10.8 nM.

Abstract
Reagentless molecular-imprinted polymer (MIP) electrochemical biosensors can offer the next generation of biosensing platforms for the detection of biomarkers owing to their simplicity, cost-efficacy, tunability, robustness, and accuracy. In this work, a novel combination of Prussian blue (PB), coated as an embedded redox probe on a gold working electrode (GWE), and a signal-off MIP assay has been proposed in an electrochemical format for the detection of troponin I (TnI) in biofluids. TnI is a variant exclusive to heart muscles, and its elevated level in the bloodstream is indicative of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The proposed lab-manufactured PB/MIP electrochemical biosensor, consisting of a simple signal-off MIP assay and a PB redox probe embedded on the GWE surface, is the first of its kind that allows for reagentless, label-free, and single-step electrochemical biosensing of proteins. The preparation steps of the biosensor were fully characterized by cyclic voltammetry (CV), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and Raman spectroscopy. Finally, the performance of the optimized biosensor was investigated through the determination of various concentrations of TnI, ranging from 10 to 100 pg mL-1 within 5 min, in serum and plasma with limits of detection less than 3.6 pg mL-1, and evaluation of selectivity towards TnI using some relevant proteins that exist in biofluids with higher concentrations.

Abstract
Aptamers are short oligonucleotides with single-stranded regions or peptides that recently started to transform the field of diagnostics. Their unique ability to bind to specific target molecules with high affinity and specificity is at least comparable to many traditional biorecognition elements. Aptamers are synthetically produced, with a compact size that facilitates deeper tissue penetration and improved cellular targeting. Furthermore, they can be easily modified with various labels or functional groups, tailoring them for diverse applications. Even more uniquely, aptamers can be regenerated after use, making aptasensors a cost-effective and sustainable alternative compared to disposable biosensors. This review delves into the inherent properties of aptamers that make them advantageous in established diagnostic methods. Furthermore, we will examine some of the limitations of aptamers, such as the need to engage in bioinformatics procedures in order to understand the relationship between the structure of the aptamer and its binding abilities. The objective is to develop a targeted design for specific targets. We analyse the process of aptamer selection and design by exploring the current landscape of aptamer utilisation across various industries. Here, we illuminate the potential advantages and applications of aptamers in a range of diagnostic techniques, with a specific focus on quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) aptasensors and their integration into the well-established ELISA method. This review serves as a comprehensive resource, summarising the latest knowledge and applications of aptamers, particularly highlighting their potential to revolutionise diagnostic approaches.

Abstract
When an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) occurs, myoglobin (Mb) is the biomarker whose concentration firstly increases, and the high sensitive detection of Mb is critical for early diagnosis of AMI. Herein, a sandwich-type electrochemical aptasensor for the sensitive detection of Mb was constructed by using Pt@Cu1.33OCo0.83O as the signal marker. On one hand, nano-flower-like Cu1.33OCo0.83O was synthesized by hydrothermal method and Pt nanoparticles (Pt NPs) were loaded on its surface. Pt@Cu1.33OCo0.83O could immobilize aptamer 2 (Apt2) successfully by the Pt-S bond. And because of the synergistic effect between Pt and bimetallic oxide, Pt@Cu1.33OCo0.83O had an excellent catalytic effect on the signal source of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to amplify the current signal, which enhance the sensitivity of the aptasensor. On the other hand, the screen-printed gold electrode (SPGE) was used as the sensing base, which had good conductivity and ensured the immobilization of aptamer 1 (Apt1). The quantitative detection of Mb was achieved by specific recognition between Mb and Apt1, Apt2. As a result, the constructed electrochemical aptasensor had a good linear range (1-1500 ng/mL) with a low detection limit (LOD) of 0.128 ng/mL (S/N = 3), and a high sensitivity of 29.47 μA dec-1. The aptasensor also realized the detection of Mb in human serum samples with good accuracy, and the results were consistent with the hospital's biochemical indicators, which demonstrated the potential application of the prepared sensor in the clinical detection of Mb.

Abstract
Introduction Biosensors, analytical devices integrating biological sensing elements with physicochemical transducers, have gained prominence as rapid and convenient tools for monitoring human health status using biochemical analytes. Due to its cost-effectiveness, simplicity, portability, and user-friendliness, electrochemical detection has emerged as a widely adopted method in biosensor applications. Crucially, biosensors enable early disease diagnosis by detecting protein biomarkers associated with various conditions. These biomarkers offer an objective indication of medical conditions that can be accurately observed from outside the patient. Method This review comprehensively documents both label-free and labelled detection methods in electrochemical biosensor techniques. Label-free detection mechanisms elicit response signals upon analyte molecule binding to the sensor surface, while labelled detection employs molecular labels such as enzymes, nanoparticles, and fluorescent tags. Conclusion The selection between label-free and labelled detection methods depends on various factors, including the biomolecular compound used, analyte type and biological binding site, biosensor design, sample volume, operational costs, analysis time, and desired detection limit. Focusing on the past six years, this review highlights the application of label-free and labelled electrochemical biosensors for detecting protein biomarkers of diseases.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer, which affects the female reproductive organs, is one of the most common types of cancer. Since this type of cancer has a high mortality rate from gynaecological cancers, the scientific community shows great interest in studies on its treatment. Chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgical treatment methods are used in its treatment. In the absence of targeted treatments in these treatment methods, side effects occur in patients, and patients show resistance to the drug. In addition, the underlying causes of ovarian cancer are still not fully known. The scientific world thinks that genetic factors, environmental conditions, and consumed foods may cause this cancer. The most important factor in the treatment of ovarian cancer is early diagnosis. Therefore, the drugs used in the treatment of ovarian cancer are platinum-based anticancer drugs. In addition to these drugs, the most preferred treatment method recently is targeted treatment approaches using poly(adenosine diphosphate ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors. In this review, studies on the sensitive analysis of the treatment methods of these new-generation drugs used in the treatment of ovarian cancer have been comprehensively examined. In addition, the basic features, structural aspects, and biological data of analytical methods used in treatments with new-generation drugs are explained. Analytical studies carried out in the literature in recent years aim to show future developments in how these new-generation drugs are used today and to guide future studies by comprehensively examining and explaining the structure-activity relationship, mechanism of action, toxicity, and pharmacokinetic studies. Finally, in this study, the methods used in the analysis of drugs used in the treatment of ovarian cancer and the studies conducted between 2015 and 2023 were discussed in detail.

Abstract
We report on the synthesis of "clickable" graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) and their application as a versatile interface for electrochemical biosensors. GNRs are successfully deposited on gold-coated working electrodes and serve as a platform for the covalent anchoring of a bioreceptor (i.e., a DNA aptamer), enabling selective and sensitive detection of Interleukin 6 (IL6). Moreover, when applied as the intermediate linker on reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-based field-effect transistors (FETs), the GNRs provide improved robustness compared to conventional aromatic bi-functional linker molecules. GNRs enable an orthogonal and covalent attachment of a recognition unit with a considerably higher probe density than previously established methods. Interestingly, we demonstrate that GNRs introduce photoluminescence (PL) when applied to rGO-based FETs, paving the way toward the simultaneous optical and electronic probing of the attached biointerface.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) is a cardiovascular disease that occurs when there is an elevated demand for myocardial oxygen as a result of the rupture or erosion of atherosclerotic plaques. Globally, the mortality rates associated with MI are steadily on the rise. Traditional diagnostic biomarkers employed in clinical settings for MI diagnosis have various drawbacks, prompting researchers to investigate fast, precise, and highly sensitive biosensor platforms and technologies. Biosensors are analytical devices that combine biological elements with physicochemical transducers to detect and quantify specific compounds or analytes. These devices play a crucial role in various fields including healthcare, environmental monitoring, food safety, and biotechnology. Biosensors developed for the detection of cardiac biomarkers are typically electrochemical, mass, and optical biosensors. Nanomaterials have emerged as revolutionary components in the field of biosensing, offering unique properties that significantly enhance the sensitivity and specificity of the detection systems. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the advancements and applications of nanomaterial-based biosensing systems. Beginning with an exploration of the fundamental principles governing nanomaterials, we delve into their diverse properties, including but not limited to electrical, optical, magnetic, and thermal characteristics. The integration of these nanomaterials as transducers in biosensors has paved the way for unprecedented developments in analytical techniques. Moreover, the principles and types of biosensors and their applications in cardiovascular disease diagnosis are explained in detail. The current biosensors for cardiac biomarker detection are also discussed, with an elaboration of the pros and cons of existing platforms and concluding with future perspectives.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is a complex clinical syndrome associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality. Over the years, it has been crucial to find accurate biomarkers capable of doing a precise monitor of HF and provide an early diagnosis. Of these, it has been established an important role of natriuretic peptides in HF assessment. Moreover, the development of biosensors has been garnering interest as new diagnostic medical tools. In this review we first provide a general overview of HF, its pathogenesis, and diagnostic features. We then discuss the role of natriuretic peptides in heart failure by characterizing them and point out their potential as biomarkers. Finally, we adress the evolution of biosensors development and the available natriuretic peptides biosensors for disease monitoring.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 236:116726. [PMID: 37495062 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.116726] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2023] [Revised: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 07/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/28/2023]
Abstract
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a remarkable cytokine that plays an important role in regulating vascular formation during the angiogenesis process. Therefore, real-time detection and quantification of VEGF is essential for clinical diagnosis and treatment due to its overexpression in various tumors. Among various sensing strategies, the aptamer-based sensors in combination with biological molecules improve the detection ability VEGFs. Aptamers are suitable biological recognition agents for the preparation of sensitive and reproducible aptasensors (Apt-sensors) due to their low immunogenicity, simple and straightforward chemical modification, and high resistance to denaturation. Here, a summary of the strategies for immobilization of aptamers (e.g., direct or self-assembled monolayer (SAM) attachment, etc.) on different types of electrodes was provided. Moreover, we discussed nanoparticle deposition techniques and surface modification methods used for signal amplification in the detection of VEGF. Furthermore, we are investigating various types of optical and electrochemical Apt-sensors used to improve sensor characterization in the detection of VEGF biomarkers.

An impedimetric immunosensor based on chitosan-Au nanoparticles-reduced graphene oxide nanosheet composite modified PG electrode for detection of brain natriuretic peptide. 3 Biotech 2023; 13:280.

Abstract
An ultrasensitive impedimetric immunosensor was developed to detect brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) for early diagnosis of heart failure. To construct this immunosensor, anti-BNP antibodies were immobilized covalently onto nanocomposite of chitosan-Au nanoparticles and reduced graphene oxide nanosheets (CHIT-Au@rGONs) electrodeposited onto pencil graphite electrode. This approach impedes charge transfer resistance (Rct) value proportionally to the BNP captured by antigen-antibody interactions. The observed Rct values by this immunosensor, were correlated with linear concentrations of BNP in the range, 1 × 10-2 to 1 × 103 pg/mL, with a limit of detection of 12 pg/mL and limit of quantification of 36.3 pg/mL. The immunosensor detected BNP in spiked human sera. The analytic recovery of added BNP in human sera was 97.04%. The present method was fairly consistent with commercial approach. The working electrode was stored for 2 months in cold. BSA-IgG had no interference in the electrode activity showing its high specificity for BNP. This novel approach provided a new POC-diagnostics, as direct sample measurements are easier and more efficient by this immunosensor compared to existing immunosensors.

Abstract
Bacterial infections resulting from foodborne pathogenic bacteria cause millions of infections that greatly threaten human health and are one of the leading causes of mortality around the world. To counter this, the early, rapid, and accurate detection of bacterial infections is very important to address serious health issue concerns. We, therefore, present an electrochemical biosensor based on aptamers that selectively bind with the DNA of specific bacteria for the accurate and rapid detection of various foodborne bacteria for the selective determination of bacterial infection types. Different aptamers were synthesized and immobilized on Au electrodes for selective bindings of different types of bacterial DNA (Escherichia coli, Salmonella enterica, and Staphylococcus aureus) for the accurate detection and quantification of bacterial concentrations from 101 to 107 CFU/mL without using any labeling methods. Under optimized conditions, the sensor showed a good response to the various concentrations of bacteria, and a robust calibration curve was obtained. The sensor could detect the bacterial concentration at meager quantities and possessed an LOD of 4.2 × 101, 6.1 × 101, and 4.4 × 101 CFU/mL for S. Typhimurium, E. Coli, and S. aureus, respectively, with a linear range from 100 to 104 CFU/mL for the total bacteria probe and 100 to 103 CFU/mL for individual probes, respectively. The proposed biosensor is simple and rapid and has shown a good response to bacterial DNA detections and thus can be applied in clinical applications and food safety monitoring.

Abstract
Early cancer screening enables timely detection of carcinogenesis, and aids in prompt clinical intervention. Herein, we report on the development of a simple, sensitive, and rapid fluorometric assay based on the aptamer probe (aptamer beacon probe, ABP) for monitoring the energy-demand biomarker adenosine triphosphate (ATP), an essential energy source that is released into the tumor microenvironment. Its level plays a significant role in risk assessment of malignancies. The operation of the ABP for ATP was examined using solutions of ATP and other nucleotides (UTP, GTP, CTP), followed by monitoring of ATP production in SW480 cancer cells. Then, the effect of a glycolysis inhibitor, 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG), on SW480 cells was investigated. The stability of predominant ABP conformations in the temperature range of 23-91 °C and the effects of temperature on ABP interactions with ATP, UTP, GTP, and CTP were evaluated based on quenching efficiencies (QE) and Stern-Volmer constants (KSV). The optimized temperature for best selectivity of ABP toward ATP was 40 °C (KSV = 1093 M-1, QE = 42%). We have found that the inhibition of glycolysis in SW480 cancer cells by 2-deoxyglucose resulted in lowering of ATP production by 31.7%. Therefore, monitoring and modulation of ATP concentration may aid in future cancer treatment.

Abstract
New possibilities for the development of biosensors that are ready to be implemented in the field have emerged thanks to the recent progress of functional nanomaterials and the careful engineering of nanostructures. Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials have exceptional physical, chemical, highly anisotropic, chemically active, and mechanical capabilities due to their ultra-thin structures. The diversity of the high surface area, layered topologies, and porosity found in 2D nanomaterials makes them amenable to being engineered with surface characteristics that make it possible for targeted identification. By integrating the distinctive features of several varieties of nanostructures and employing them as scaffolds for bimolecular assemblies, biosensing platforms with improved reliability, selectivity, and sensitivity for the identification of a plethora of analytes can be developed. In this review, we compile a number of approaches to using 2D nanomaterials for biomolecule detection. Subsequently, we summarize the advantages and disadvantages of using 2D nanomaterials in biosensing. Finally, both the opportunities and the challenges that exist within this potentially fruitful subject are discussed. This review will assist readers in understanding the synthesis of 2D nanomaterials, their alteration by enzymes and composite materials, and the implementation of 2D material-based biosensors for efficient bioanalysis and disease diagnosis.

Abstract
The increasing number of deaths from cardiovascular diseases has become a substantial concern in both developed and underdeveloped countries. Rapid and on-site monitoring of this disease is urgently important to control, prevent and make awareness of public health. Recently, a lot of focus has been placed on nanomaterials and modify these nanomaterials have been explored to detect cardiac biomarkers. By implementing biosensors that are modified with novel recognition elements and more stable nanomaterials, the use of electrochemistry for point-of-care devices is more realistic every day. This review focuses on the current state of nanomaterials conjugated biorecognition elements (enzyme integrated with nanomaterials, antibody conjugated nanomaterials and aptamer conjugated nanomaterials) for electrochemical cardiovascular disease detection. Specifically, a lot of attention has been given to the trends toward more stable biosensors that have increased the potential to be used as point-of-care devices for the detection of cardiac biomarkers due to their high stability and specificity. Moreover, the recent progress on biomolecule-free electrochemical nanosensors for cardiovascular disease detection has been considered. At last, the possibility and drawbacks of some of these techniques for point-of-care cardiac device development in the future have been discussed.

Abstract
This work presents the synthesis of a new representative of hemicurcuminoids with a nonyloxy substituent (HCur) as a fluorescent amphiphilic structural element of vesicular aggregates based on phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylserine (PS), and 10,12-pentacosadiynoic acid (PCDA). Both X-ray diffraction analysis of the single crystal and 1H NMR spectra of HCur in organic solvents indicate the predominance of the enol-tautomer of HCur. DFT calculations show the predominance of the enol tautomer HCur in supramolecular assemblies with PC, PS, and PCDA molecules. The results of the molecular modeling show that HCur molecules are surrounded by PC and PS with a rather weak exposure to water molecules, while an exposure of HCur molecules to water is enhanced under its supramolecular assembly with PCDA molecules. This is in good agreement with the higher loading of HCur into PC(PS) vesicles compared to PCDA vesicles converted into polydiacetylene (PDA) ones by photopolymerization. HCur molecules incorporated into HCur-PDA vesicles exhibit greater planarity distortion and hydration effect in comparison with HCur-PC(PS) ones. HCur-PDA is presented as a dual fluorescence-chromatic nanosensor responsive to a change in pH within 7.5-9.5, heavy metal ions and polylysine, and the concentration-dependent fluorescent response is more sensitive than the chromatic one. Thus, the fluorescent response of HCur-PDA allows for the distinguishing between Cd2+ and Pb2+ ions in the concentration range 0-0.01 mM, while the chromatic response allows for the selective sensing of Pb2+ over Cd2+ ions at their concentrations above 0.03 mM.

Abstract
The sensitive detection of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is of great significance for the early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Herein, in order to fabricate an electrochemical biosensor for ultrasensitive cTnI detection, atomic layer deposition (ALD) was employed to directly deposit NbS2 nanoflakes (NFs) on carbon fiber paper (CFP). Due to the self-limiting reaction of ALD, NbS2NFs were deposited uniformly and accurately on the surface of carbon fibers by controlling the number of ALD cycles, which ensured ultrasensitive detection. Precise regulation of the nanoscale morphology and electrochemical performance of NbS2 nanoflakes via ALD cycles was observed in depth. Owing to the high surface area and conductivity, an anodic/cathodic current of ∼3.01 mA of NbS2NFs/CFP can be obtained. Subsequently, an electrochemical biosensor based on the excellent performance of NbS2NFs/CFP was fabricated. The ultrasensitive detection of cTnI in a linear range of 1 fM to 0.1 nM with a detection limit of 0.32 fM was achieved.

Abstract
Nanobiosensors are devices that utilize a very small probe and any form of electrical, optical, or magnetic technology to detect and analyze a biochemical or biological process. With an increasing population today, nanobiosensors have become the broadly used electroanalytical tools for the timely detection of many infectious (dengue, hepatitis, tuberculosis, leukemia, etc.) and other fatal diseases, such as prostate cancer, breast cancer, etc., at their early stage. Compared to classical or traditional analytical methods, nanobiosensors have significant benefits, including low detection limit, high selectivity and sensitivity, shorter analysis duration, easier portability, biocompatibility, and ease of miniaturization for on-site monitoring. Very similar to biosensors, nanobiosensors can also be classified in numerous ways, either depending on biological molecules, such as enzymes, antibodies, and aptamer, or by working principles, such as optical and electrochemical. Various nanobiosensors, such as cyclic voltametric, amperometric, impedimetric, etc., have been discussed for the timely monitoring of the infectious and fatal diseases at their early stage. Nanobiosensors performance and efficiency can be enhanced by using a variety of engineered nanostructures, which include nanotubes, nanoparticles, nanopores, self-adhesive monolayers, nanowires, and nanocomposites. Here, this mini review recaps the application of two-dimensional (2D) materials, especially graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4), graphene oxide, black phosphorous, and MXenes, for the construction of the nanobiosensors and their application for the diagnosis of various infectious diseases at very early stage.

[PMID: 36688097 PMCID: PMC9847464 DOI: 10.1007/s10404-022-02622-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2022] [Accepted: 12/31/2022] [Indexed: 05/31/2023]
Abstract
Aptasensors have attracted considerable interest and widespread application in point-of-care testing worldwide. One of the biggest challenges of a point-of-care (POC) is the reduction of treatment time compared to central facilities that diagnose and monitor the applications. Over the past decades, biosensors have been introduced that offer more reliable, cost-effective, and accurate detection methods. Aptamer-based biosensors have unprecedented advantages over biosensors that use natural receptors such as antibodies and enzymes. In the current epidemic, point-of-care testing (POCT) is advantageous because it is easy to use, more accessible, faster to detect, and has high accuracy and sensitivity, reducing the burden of testing on healthcare systems. POCT is beneficial for daily epidemic control as well as early detection and treatment. This review provides detailed information on the various design strategies and virus detection methods using aptamer-based sensors. In addition, we discussed the importance of different aptamers and their detection principles. Aptasensors with higher sensitivity, specificity, and flexibility are critically discussed to establish simple, cost-effective, and rapid detection methods. POC-based aptasensors' diagnostic applications are classified and summarised based on infectious and infectious diseases. Finally, the design factors to be considered are outlined to meet the future of rapid POC-based sensors.

Abstract
Biomarkers detection and quantification in biological fluids play a key role in the screening, diagnosing and treating several diseases. Recently, a large number of aptamers have been selected and applied for the sensing of different biomarkers. Combined with different transducers, aptamers provide simple and rapid tools that allow highly sensitive and selective detection. Cardiology requires an accurate assessment of cardiac biomarkers for a complete diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases. The analysis is generally performed by immunoassays using antibodies as biorecognition elements. This review paper focuses on using aptamers as a promising alternative for antibodies in cardiac biomarkers biosensing. First, the different aptamers specific to the most important cardiac biomarkers are Troponin I, the peptide of B-type natriuretic peptide and myoglobin. Then, in the second part, we overview the electrochemical aptasensors principle and characteristics reported in the literature in the last five years.

Abstract
Curbing tuberculosis (TB) requires a combination of good strategies, including a proper prevention measure, diagnosis, and treatment. This study proposes an improvised tuberculosis diagnosis based on an amperometry approach for the sensitive detection of MPT64 antigen in clinical samples. An MPT64 aptamer specific to the target antigen was covalently attached to the carboxyphenyl diazonium-functionalized carbon electrode via carbodiimide chemistry. The electrochemical detection assay was adapted from a sandwich assay format to trap the antigen between the immobilized aptamer and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) tagged polyclonal anti-MPT64 antibody. The amperometric current was measured from the catalytic reaction response between HRP, hydrogen peroxide, and hydroquinone, which is used as an electron mediator. From the analysis, the detection limit in the measurement buffer was 1.11 ng mL-1. Additionally, the developed aptasensor exhibited a linear relationship between the current signal and the MPT64 antigen-spiked serum concentration ranging from 10 to 150 ng mL-1 with a 1.38 ng mL-1 detection limit. Finally, an evaluation using the clinical sputum samples from both TB (+) and TB (-) individuals revealed a sensitivity and specificity of 88% and 100%, respectively. Based on the analysis, the developed aptasensor was found to be simple in its fabrication, sensitive, and allowed for the efficient detection and diagnosis of TB in sputum samples.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is considered as one of the main causes of death, threating human lives for decades. Currently, its diagnosis relies on electrocardiography (ECG), which has been proven to be insufficient. In this context, the efficient detection of cardiac biomarkers was proposed to overcome the limitations of ECG. In particular, the measurement of troponins, specifically cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and cardiac troponin T (cTnT), has proven to be superior in terms of sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of myocardial damage. As one of the most life-threatening conditions, specific and sensitive investigation methods that are fast, universally available, and cost-efficient to allow for early initiation of evidence-based, living-saving treatment are desired. In this review, we aim to present and discuss the major breakthroughs made in the development of cTnI and cTnT specific biosensor designs and analytical tools, highlighting the achieved progress as well as the remaining challenges to reach the technological goal of simple, specific, cheap, and portable testing chips for the rapid and efficient on-site detection of cardiac cTnI/cTnT biomarkers in order to diagnose and treat cardiovascular diseases at an incipient stage.

Abstract
As a leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide, cardiovascular disease and its diagnosis, quantification, and stratification remain significant health issues. Increasingly, patients present with cardiovascular disease in the absence of known risk factors, suggesting the presence of yet unrecognized pathological processes and disease predispositions. Fortunately, a host of emerging cardiovascular biomarkers characterizing and quantifying ischaemic heart disease have shown great promise in both laboratory settings and clinical trials. These have demonstrated improved predictive value additional to widely accepted biomarkers as well as providing insight into molecular phenotypes beneath the broad umbrella of cardiovascular disease that may allow for further personalized treatment regimens. However, the process of translation into clinical practice – particularly navigating the legal and commercial landscape – poses a number of challenges. Practical and legal barriers to the biomarker translational pipeline must be further considered to develop strategies to bring novel biomarkers into the clinical sphere and apply these advances at the patient bedside. Here we review the progress of emerging biomarkers in the cardiovascular space, with particular focus on those relevant to the unmet needs in ischaemic heart disease.

Abstract
Exosome analysis is emerging as an attractive noninvasive approach for disease diagnosis and treatment monitoring in the field of liquid biopsy. Aptamer is considered as a promising molecular probe for exosomes detection because of the high binding affinity, remarkable specificity, and low cost. Recently, many approaches have been developed to further improve the performance of electrochemical aptamer based(E-AB) sensors with a lower limit of detection. In this review, we focus on the development of using aptamer as a specific recognition element for exosomes detection in electrochemical sensors. We first introduce recent advances in evolving aptamers against exosomes. Then, we review methods of immobilization aptamers on electrode surfaces, followed by a summary of the main strategies of signal amplification. Finally, we present the insights of the challenges and future directions of E-AB sensors for exosomes analysis.

Abstract
Functional photothermal nanomaterials have gained widespread attention in the field of precise cancer therapy and early disease diagnosis due to their unique photothermal conversion properties. However, the relatively narrow temperature response range and the outputable accuracy of commercial thermometers limit the accurate detection of biomarkers. Herein, we designed a liposome-embedded Cu2-xAgxS amplification-based photothermal sensor for the accurate determination of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) in health monitoring and point-of-care testing (POCT). The combinable 3D-printing detecting device monitored and visualized target signal changes in the testing system under the excitation of near-infrared (NIR) light, which was recorded and evaluated for possible pathogenicity by a smartphone. Notably, we predicted the potentially efficient thermal conversion efficiency of Cu2-xAgxS from the structure and charge density distribution, calculated by the first-principles and density functional theory (DFT), which provided a theoretical basis for the construction of novel photothermal materials, and the experimental results proved the correctness of the theoretical projections. Under optimal conditions, the photothermal immunoassay showed a dynamic linear range of 0.02-10 ng mL-1 with a detection limit of 11.2 pg mL-1. This work instructively introduces promising theoretical research and provides new insights for the development of sensitive portable photothermal biosensors.

Abstract
The detection of cardiac biomarkers is used for diagnostics, prognostics, and the risk assessment of cardiovascular diseases. The analysis of cardiac biomarkers is routinely performed with high-sensitivity immunological assays. Aptamers offer an attractive alternative to antibodies for analytical applications but, to date, are not widely practically implemented in diagnostics and medicinal research. This review summarizes the information on the most common cardiac biomarkers and the current state of aptamer research regarding these biomarkers. Aptamers as an analytical tool are well established for troponin I, troponin T, myoglobin, and C-reactive protein. For the rest of the considered cardiac biomarkers, the isolation of novel aptamers or more detailed characterization of the known aptamers are required. More attention should be addressed to the development of dual-aptamer sandwich detection assays and to the studies of aptamer sensing in alternative biological fluids. The universalization of aptamer-based biomarker detection platforms and the integration of aptamer-based sensing to clinical studies are demanded for the practical implementation of aptamers to routine diagnostics. Nevertheless, the wide usage of aptamers for the diagnostics of cardiovascular diseases is promising for the future, with respect to both point-of-care and laboratory testing.

Abstract
Chronic inflammatory diseases, such as cancer, diabetes mellitus, stroke, ischemic heart diseases, neurodegenerative conditions, and COVID-19 have had a high number of deaths worldwide in recent years. The accurate detection of the biomarkers for chronic inflammatory diseases can significantly improve diagnosis, as well as therapy and clinical care in patients. Graphene derivative materials (GDMs), such as pristine graphene (G), graphene oxide (GO), and reduced graphene oxide (rGO), have shown tremendous benefits for biosensing and in the development of novel biosensor devices. GDMs exhibit excellent chemical, electrical and mechanical properties, good biocompatibility, and the facility of surface modification for biomolecular recognition, opening new opportunities for simple, accurate, and sensitive detection of biomarkers. This review shows the recent advances, properties, and potentialities of GDMs for developing robust biosensors. We show the main electrochemical and optical-sensing methods based on GDMs, as well as their design and manufacture in order to integrate them into robust, wearable, remote, and smart biosensors devices. We also describe the current application of such methods and technologies for the biosensing of chronic disease biomarkers. We also describe the current application of such methods and technologies for the biosensing of chronic disease biomarkers with improved sensitivity, reaching limits of detection from the nano to atto range concentration.

Abstract
Driven by the increasing concern about the risk of diclofenac (DCF) residues as water pollutants in the aqueous environment and the growing need for its trace determination, a simple but sensitive electrochemical aptasensor for the trace detection of DCF was developed. To construct the aptasensor, the amine-terminated DCF aptamer was covalently immobilized on the surface of the carboxylic acid–functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotube (f-MWCNT)–modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) through EDC/NHS chemistry. The f-MWCNTs provide a reliable matrix for aptamer immobilization with high grafting density, while the aptamer serves as a biorecognition probe for DCF. The obtained aptasensor was incubated with DCF solutions at different concentrations and was then investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). It displays two linear ranges of concentration for DCF detection, from 250 fM to 1pM and from 1 pM to 500 nM with an extremely low detection limit of 162 fM. Also, the developed biosensor shows great reproducibility, acceptable stability, and reliable selectivity. Therefore, it offers a simple but effective aptasensor construction strategy for trace detection of DCF and is anticipated to show great potential for environmental applications.

Abstract
Background A significant heart attack known as a myocardial infarction (MI) occurs when the blood supply to the heart is suddenly interrupted, harming the heart muscles due to a lack of oxygen. The incidence of myocardial infarction is increasing worldwide. A relationship between COVID-19 and myocardial infarction due to the recent COVID-19 pandemic has also been revealed. Objective We propose a biomarker and a method that can be used for the diagnosis of myocardial infarction, and an aptamer-based approach. Results For the diagnosis of myocardial infarction, an algorithm-based diagnosis method was developed using electrocardiogram data. A diagnosis method through biomarker detection was then developed. Conclusion Myocardial infarction is a disease that is difficult to diagnose based on the aspect of a single factor. For this reason, it is necessary to use a combination of various methods to diagnose myocardial infarction quickly and accurately. In addition, new materials such as aptamers must be grafted and integrated into new ways. Purpose of Review The incidence of myocardial infarction is increasing worldwide, and some studies are being conducted on the association between COVID-19 and myocardial infarction. The key to properly treating myocardial infarction is early detection, thus we aim to do this by offering both tools and techniques as well as the most recent diagnostic techniques. Recent Findings Myocardial infarction is diagnosed using an electrocardiogram and echocardiogram, which utilize cardiac signals. It is required to identify biomarkers of myocardial infarction and use biomarker-based ELISA, SPR, gold nanoparticle, and aptamer technologies in order to correctly diagnose myocardial infarction.

Abstract
In recent years, the need for simple, fast, and economical detection of food and environmental contaminants, and the necessity to monitor biomarkers of different diseases have considerably accelerated the development of biosensor technology. However, designing biosensors capable of simultaneous determination of two or more analytes in a single measurement, for example on a single working electrode in single solution, is still a great challenge. On the other hand, such analysis offers many advantages compared to single analyte tests, such as cost per test, labor, throughput, and convenience. Because of the high sensitivity and scalability of the electrochemical detection systems on the one hand and the specificity of aptamers on the other, the electrochemical aptasensors are considered to be highly effective devices for simultaneous detection of multiple-target analytes. In this review, we describe and evaluate multi-label approaches based on (1) metal quantum dots and metal ions, (2) redox labels, and (3) enzyme labels. We focus on recently developed strategies for multiplex sensing using electrochemical aptasensors. Furthermore, we emphasize the use of different nanomaterials in the construction of these aptasensors. Based on examples from the existing literature, we highlight recent applications of multiplexed detection platforms in clinical diagnostics, food control, and environmental monitoring. Finally, we discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the aptasensors developed so far, and debate possible challenges and prospects.

Abstract
As a major cause of deaths in developed countries, cardiovascular disease (CVD) has been a big burden for human health systems. Its early and rapid detection is crucial to efficiently apply appropriate on time therapy and to ultimately reduce the associated mortality rate. Aptamers, known as single-stranded DNA/RNA or oligonucleotides containing receptors and/or catalytic properties, have been widely employed in biodetection platforms due to their beneficial properties. Like antibodies, aptamers have served as artificial target receptors in affinity biosensors. Currently, advanced biosensors with improved sensitivity and specificity are fabricated by the synergistic combination of aptamers and diverse nanomaterials. Herein, we review the current development and applications of nanomaterial-based aptasensors for the recognition of CVD biomarkers with special emphasis on electrochemical and optical technologies. The performance of aptasensors has been assessed further in terms of key quality assurance metrics along with discussions on recent technologies developed for the amplification of signals with enhanced portability.

Abstract
Sensitive and selective detection of biomarkers in serum in a short time has a significant impact on health. The enormous clinical importance of developing reliable methods and devices for testing serum levels of cardiac troponin I (cTnI), which are directly correlated to acute myocardial infarction (AMI), has spurred an unmatched race among researchers for the development of highly sensitive and cost-effective sensing formats to be able to differentiate patients with early onset of cardiac injury from healthy individuals with a mean cTnI level of 26 pg mL-1. Electronic- and electrochemical-based detection schemes allow for fast and quantitative detection not otherwise possible at the point of care. Such approaches rely largely on voltammetric and field-effect-based readouts. Here, we systematically investigate electric and electrochemical point-of-care sensors for the detection of cTnI in serum samples by using the same surface receptors, cTnI aptamer-functionalized CVD graphene-coated interdigated gold electrodes. The analytical performances of both sensors are comparable with a limit of detection (LoD) of 5.7 ± 0.6 pg mL-1(electrochemical) and 3.3 ± 1.2 pg mL-1 (electric). However, both sensors exhibit different equilibrium dissociation constant (KD) values between the aptamer-linked surface receptor and the cTnI analyte, being 160 pg mL-1 for the electrochemical and about three times lower for the electrical approach with KD = 51.4 pg mL-1. This difference is believed to be related to the use of a redox mediator in the electrochemical sensor for readout. The ability of the redox mediator to diffuse from the solution to the surface via the cTnI/aptamer interface is hindered, correlating to higher KD values. In contrast, the electric readout has the advantage of being label-free with a sensing limitation due to ionic strength effects, which can be limited using poly(ethylene) glycol surface ligands.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the main cause of death from cardiovascular diseases. Thus, early diagnosis of AMI is essential for the treatment of irreversible damage from myocardial infarction. Traditional electrocardiograms (ECG) cannot meet the specific detection of AMI. Cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is the main biomarker for the diagnosis of myocardial infarction, and the detection of cTnI content has become particularly important. In this review, we introduced and compared the advantages and disadvantages of various cTnI detection methods. We focused on the analysis and comparison of the main indicators and limitations of various cTnI biosensors, including the detection range, detection limit, specificity, repeatability, and stability. In particular, we pay more attention to the application and development of electrochemical biosensors in the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases based on different biological components. The application of electrochemical microfluidic chips for cTnI was also briefly introduced in this review. Finally, this review also briefly discusses the unresolved challenges of electrochemical detection and the expectations for improvement in the detection of cTnI biosensing in the future.

Abstract
Point-of-care testing (POCT) is a specific format of diagnostic testing that is conducted without accompanying infrastructure or sophisticated instrumentation. Traditionally, such rapid sample-to-answer assays provide inferior analytical performances to their laboratory counterparts when measuring cardiac biomarkers. Hence, their potentially broad applicability is somewhat bound by their inability to detect clinically relevant concentrations of cardiac troponin (cTn) in the early stages of myocardial injury. However, the continuous refinement of biorecognition elements, the optimization of detection techniques, and the fabrication of tailored fluid handling systems to manage the sensing process has stimulated the production of commercial assays that can support accelerated diagnostic pathways. This review will present the latest commercial POC assays and examine their impact on clinical decision-making. The individual elements that constitute POC assays will be explored, with an emphasis on aspects that contribute to economically feasible and highly sensitive assays. Furthermore, the prospect of POCT imparting a greater influence on early interventions for medium to high-risk individuals and the potential to re-shape the paradigm of cardiovascular risk assessments will be discussed.

Abstract
Heart disease, as the most serious threat to human health globally, is responsible for rising mortality rates, largely due to lifestyle and diet. Unfortunately, the main problem for patients at high risk of heart disease is the validation of prognostic tests. To this end, the detection of cardiovascular biomarkers has been employed to obtain pathological and physiological information in order to improve prognosis and early-stage diagnosis of chronic heart failure. Short-term changes in B-type natriuretic peptide are known as a standard and important biomarker for diagnosis of heart failure. The most important problem for detection is low concentration and short half-life in the blood. The normal concentration of BNP in blood is less than 7 nM (25 pg/mL), which increases significantly to more than 80 pg/mL. Therefore, the development of new biosensors with better sensitivity, detection limit, and dynamic range than current commercial kits is urgently needed. This review classifies the biosensors designed for detection of BNP into electrochemical, optical, microfluidic, and lateral-flow immunoassay techniques. The review clearly demonstrates that a variety of immunoassay, aptasensor, enzymatic and catalytic nanomaterials, and fluorophores have been successfully employed for detection of BNP at low attomolar ranges.

Abstract
Luteinizing hormone (LH)/lutropin is an interstitial cell-stimulating hormone playing a predominant role in the reproductive system, and highly correlated with the infertility treatment in both men and women. This research was concentrated to quantify LH level by using interdigitated electrode sensor. To improve the electric current flow, sensing electrode was modified with graphene oxide (GO) and the aptamer probe was attached on GO through biotin-streptavidin linker. Current responses were measured with aptamer-LH interaction at the target concentrations between 7.5 nM and 1 μM and the detection limit of LH was calculated as 60 nM with the determination coefficient (R2 ) value, 0.9229 [y = 1.296x - 2.8435] on a linear range from 30 nM to 1 μM. Further, biofouling effect on sensing electrode surface was analyzed with complementary aptamer sequence, control proteins (albumin and globulin). The above GO-aptamer-modified interdigitated electrode sensor helps to quantify LH level and diagnose gynecological endocrinology-related complications.

Abstract
A label-free chemical bonding strategy mediated by reduced graphene oxide (rGO) basal plane functional groups has been developed for cardiac Troponin I (cTnI) detection. Four different chemical strategies on respective electrode sensing surface were precedingly examined using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The impedimetric assessment was carried out by sweeping frequency at the range 0.1-500 kHz perturbated at a small amplitude of AC voltage (25 mV). The chemical strategy-4 denoted as S-4 shows a significant analytical performance on cTnI detection in spiked buffer and human serum, whereby the pre-mixture of rGO and (3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) creates a large number of amine sites (-NH2), which significantly enhanced the antibody immobilization without excessive functionalization. The as-fabricated immunosensor exhibited an ultra-low limit of detection of 6.3 ag mL-1 and the lowest antigen concentration measured was at 10 ag mL-1. The immunosensor showed a linear and wide range of cTnI detection (10 ag mL-1-100 ng mL-1) in human serum with a regression coefficient of 0.9716, rapid detection (5 min of binding time), and stable and highly reproducible bioelectrode response with RSD < 5%. Hence, the demonstrated S-4 strategy is highly recommended for other downstream biosensors applications.

Abstract
Hybridization chain reaction (HCR) amplification strategy has been extensively explored for the application of electrochemical DNA-based sensors. Despite the enhancement in its sensitivity using the HCR, such sensor platform exhibited significant sensor-to-sensor variations in current due to variations in probe counts and lengths. To circumvent this, we are developing here a calibration-free "O-N" approach to generate a ratiometric, unitless value that is independent of these variations. Specifically, this approach employs two types of redox reporters, denoted as "One reporter" and "N reporters", with the former attached on the capture DNA and the latter on H1 and H2 strands. By optimizing the attachment sites of these reporters onto DNA strands, we demonstrate a significantly enhanced sensitivity of such sensor platform by four orders of magnitude, achieving accurate, calibration-free measurement of nucleic acids including ctDNA directly in undiluted whole blood without the requirement to calibrate each individual sensor.

Zeolite-iron oxide nanocomposite from fly ash formed a 'clubbell' structure: integration of cardiac biocapture macromolecules in serum on microelectrodes. Mikrochim Acta 2021; 188:187. [PMID: 33990848 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-021-04834-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2021] [Accepted: 04/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
A new zeolite-iron oxide nanocomposite (ZEO-IO) was extracted from waste fly ash of a thermal power plant and utilized for capturing aptamers used to quantify the myocardial infarction (MI) biomarker N-terminal prohormone B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-ProBNP); this was used in a probe with an integrated microelectrode sensor. High-resolution microscopy revealed that ZEO-IO displayed a clubbell structure and a particle size range of 100-200 nm. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed the presence of Si, Al, Fe, and O in the synthesized ZEO-IO. The limit of detection for NT-ProBNP was 1-2 pg/mL (0.1-0.2 pM) when the aptamer was sandwiched with antibody and showed the doubled current response even at a low NT-ProBNP abundance. A dose-dependent interaction was identified for this sandwich with a linear plot in the concentration range 1 to 32 pg/mL (0.1-3.2 pM) with a determination coefficient R2 = 0.9884; y = 0.8425x-0.5771. Without sandwich, the detection limit was 2-4 pg/mL (0.2-0.4 pM) and the determination coefficient was R2 = 0.9854; y = 1.0996x-1.4729. Stability and nonfouling assays in the presence of bovine serum albumin, cardiac troponin I, and myoglobin revealed that the aptamer-modified surface is stable and specific for NT-Pro-BNP. Moreover, NT-ProBNP-spiked human serum exhibited selective detection. This new nanocomposite-modified surface helps in detecting NT-Pro-BNP and diagnosing MI at stages of low expression.
