Abstract
The biomimetic olfactory and gustatory biosensing devices have broad applications in many fields, such as industry, security, and biomedicine. The development of these biosensors was inspired by the organization of biological olfactory and gustatory systems. In this review, we summarized the most recent advances in the development of detection strategies for chemical sensing based on olfactory and gustatory biomimetic biosensors. First, sensing mechanisms and principles of olfaction and gustation are briefly introduced. Then, different biomimetic sensing detection strategies are outlined based on different sensing devices functionalized with various molecular and cellular components originating from natural olfactory and gustatory systems. Thereafter, various biomimetic olfactory and gustatory biosensors are introduced in detail by classifying and summarizing the detection strategies based on different sensing devices. Finally, the future directions and challenges of biomimetic biosensing development are proposed and discussed.

Self-healable and anti-freezing ion conducting hydrogel-based artificial bioelectronic tongue sensing toward astringent and bitter tastes. Biosens Bioelectron 2022; 198:113811. [PMID: 34823963 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2021.113811] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2021] [Revised: 10/04/2021] [Accepted: 11/13/2021] [Indexed: 01/12/2023]
Abstract
Numerous efforts have been attempted to mimic human tongue since years. However, they still have limitations because of damages, temperature effects, detection ranges etc. Herein, a self-healable hydrogel-based artificial bioelectronic tongue (E-tongue) containing mucin as a secreted protein, sodium chloride as an ion transporting electrolyte, and chitosan/poly(acrylamide-co-acrylic acid) as the main 3D structure holding hydrogel network is synthesized. This E-tongue is introduced to mimic astringent and bitter mouth feel based on cyclic voltammetry (CV) measurements subjected to target substances, which permits astringent tannic acid (TA) and bitter quinine sulfate (QS) to be detected over wide corresponding ranges of 29.3 mM-0.59 μM and 63.8 mM-6.38 μM with remarkable respective sensitivities of 0.2 and 0.12 wt%-1. Besides, the taste selectivity of this E-tongue is performed in the presence of various mixed-taste chemicals to show its high selective behavior toward bitter and astringent chemicals. The electrical self-healability is shown via CV responses to illustrate electrical recovery within a short time span. In addition, cytotoxicity tests using HeLa cells are performed, where a clear viability of ≥95% verified its biocompatibility. The anti-freezing sensing of E-tongue tastes at -5 °C also makes this work to be useful at sub-zero environments. Real time degrees of tastes are detected using beverages and fruits to confirm future potential applications in food taste detections and humanoid robots.

Abstract
Various lipid-based nanocarriers have been developed for the co-delivery of protein antigens with immunological adjuvants. However, their in vivo potency in vaccine delivery is limited by structural instability, which causes off-target delivery and low cross-presentation efficacies. Recent works employ covalent cross-linking to stabilize the lipid nanostructures, though the immunogenicity and side effects of chemically modified protein antigens and lipids can cause a long-lasting safety issue. Here robust "conjugation-free" multilamellar protein antigen-lipid hybrid nanovesicles (MPLVs) are introduced through the antigen-mediated self-assembly of unilamellar lipid vesicles for the co-delivery of protein antigens and immunologic adjuvants. The nanocarriers coated with monophosphoryl lipid A and hyaluronic acids elicit highly increase antigen-specific immune responses in vitro and in vivo. The MPLVs increase the generation of immunological surface markers and cytokines in mouse-derived bone-marrow dendritic cells compared to soluble antigens with adjuvants. Besides, the vaccination of mice with the MPLVs significantly increase the production of anti-antigen antibody and interferon-gamma via the activation of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, respectively. These findings suggest that MPLVs can serve as a promising nanovaccine delivery platform for efficient antigen cross-presentation through the efficient co-delivery of protein antigens with adjuvants.

Abstract
Heterogeneous tissue models require the assembly and co-culture of multiple types of cells. Our recent work demonstrated taste signal transmission from gustatory cells to neurons by grafting single-stranded DNA into the cell membrane to construct multicellular assemblies. However, the weak DNA linkage and low grafting density allowed the formation of large gustatory cell self-aggregates that cannot communicate with neurons efficiently. This article presents the construction of artificial taste buds exhibiting active intercellular taste signal transmission through the hybridization of gustatory-neuronal multicellular interfaces using bioorthogonal click chemistry. Hybrid cell clusters were formed by the self-assembly of neonatal gustatory cells displaying tetrazine with a precultured embryonic hippocampal neuronal network displaying trans-cyclooctene. A bitter taste signal transduction was provoked in gustatory cells using denatonium benzoate and transmitted to neurons as monitored by intracellular calcium ion sensing. In the multicellular hybrids, the average number of signal transmissions was five to six peaks per cell, and the signal transmission lasted for ∼5 min with a signal-to-signal gap time of 10-40 s. The frequent and extended intercellular signal transmission suggests that the cell surface modification by the bioorthogonal click chemistry is a promising approach to fabricating functional multicellular hybrid clusters potentially useful for cell-based biosensors, toxicity assays, and tissue regeneration.

Abstract
In the course of evolution, nature has endowed humans with systems for the recognition of a wide range of tastes with a sensitivity and selectivity which are indispensable for the evaluation of edibility and flavour attributes. Inspiration by a biological sense of taste has become a basis for the design of instruments, operation principles and parameters enabling to mimic the unique properties of their biological precursors. In response to the demand for fast, sensitive and selective techniques of flavouring analysis, devices belonging to the group of bioelectronic tongues (B-ETs) have been designed. They combine achievements of chemometric analysis employed for many years in electronic tongues (ETs), with unique properties of bio-inspired materials, such as natural taste receptors (TRs) regarding receptor/ligand affinity. Investigations of the efficiency of the prototype devices create new application possibilities and suggest successful implementation in real applications. With advances in the field of biotechnology, microfluidics and nanotechnologies, many exciting developments have been made in the design of B-ETs in the last five years or so. The presented characteristics of the recent design solutions, application possibilities, critical evaluation of potentialities and limitations as well as the outline of further development prospects related to B-ETs should contribute to the systematisation and expansion of our knowledge.
