Osaki S, Saito M, Nagai H, Tamiya E. Surface Modification of Screen-Printed Carbon Electrode through Oxygen Plasma to Enhance Biosensor Sensitivity. BIOSENSORS 2024; 14:165. [PMID: 38667159 PMCID: PMC11048330 DOI: 10.3390/bios14040165] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2024] [Revised: 03/25/2024] [Accepted: 03/25/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024]
Abstract
The screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) is a useful technology that has been widely used in the practical application of biosensors oriented to point-of-care testing (POCT) due to its characteristics of cost-effectiveness, disposability, miniaturization, wide potential window, and simple electrode design. Compared with gold or platinum electrodes, surface modification is difficult because the carbon surface is chemically or physically stable. Oxygen plasma (O2) can easily produce carboxyl groups on the carbon surface, which act as scaffolds for covalent bonds. However, the effect of O2-plasma treatment on electrode performance remains to be investigated from an electrochemical perspective, and sensor performance can be improved by clarifying the surface conditions of plasma-treated biosensors. In this research, we compared antibody modification by plasma treatment and physical adsorption, using our novel immunosensor based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). Consequently, the O2-plasma treatment produced carboxyl groups on the electrode surface that changed the electrochemical properties owing to electrostatic interactions. In this study, we compared the following four cases of SPCE modification: O2-plasma-treated electrode/covalent-bonded antibody (a); O2-plasma-treated electrode/physical adsorbed antibody (b); bare electrode/covalent-bonded antibody (c); and bare electrode/physical absorbed antibody (d). The limits of detection (LOD) were 0.50 ng/mL (a), 9.7 ng/mL (b), 0.54 ng/mL (c), and 1.2 ng/mL (d). The slopes of the linear response range were 0.039, 0.029, 0.014, and 0.022. The LOD of (a) was 2.4 times higher than the conventional condition (d), The slope of (a) showed higher sensitivity than other cases (b~d). This is because the plasma treatment generated many carboxyl groups and increased the number of antibody adsorption sites. In summary, the O2-plasma treatment was found to modify the electrode surface conditions and improve the amount of antibody modifications. In the future, O2-plasma treatment could be used as a simple method for modifying various molecular recognition elements on printed carbon electrodes.

Abstract
Nanomaterial-based biosensors have received significant attention owing to their unique properties, especially enhanced sensitivity. Recent advancements in biomedical diagnosis have highlighted the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) as sensitive prognostic and diagnostic biomarkers for various diseases. Current diagnostics methods, however, need further improvements with regards to their sensitivity, mainly due to the low concentration levels of miRNAs in the body. The low limit of detection of nanomaterial-based biosensors has turned them into powerful tools for detecting and quantifying these biomarkers. Herein, we assemble an overview of recent developments in the application of different nanomaterials and nanostructures as miRNA electrochemical biosensing platforms, along with their pros and cons. The techniques are categorized based on the nanomaterial used.

Abstract
Structural health monitoring (SHM) is a critical aspect of ensuring the safety and durability of smart biocomposite materials used as multifunctional materials. Smart biocomposites are composed of renewable or biodegradable materials and have emerged as eco-friendly alternatives of traditional non-biodegradable glass fiber-based composite materials. Although biocomposites exhibit fascinating properties and many desirable traits, real-time and early stage SHM is the most challenging issue to enable their long-term use. Smart biocomposites are integrated with sensors for in situ identification of the progress of damage and composite failure. The sensitivity of such smart biocomposites is a key functionality, which can be tuned by the introduction of an appropriate filler. In particular, nanocarbons hold promising potential to be incorporated in SHM applications of biocomposites. This review focused on the potential applications of nanocarbons in SHM of biocomposites. The aspects related to fabrication techniques and working mechanism of sensors are comprehensively discussed. Furthermore, their unique mechanical and electrical properties and sustainable nature ensure seamless integration into biocomposites, allowing for real-time monitoring without compromising the material's properties. These sensors offer multi-parameter sensing capabilities, such as strain, pressure, humidity, temperature, and chemical exposure, allowing a comprehensive assessment of biocomposite health. Additionally, their durability and longevity in harsh conditions, along with wireless connectivity options, provide cost-effective and sustainable SHM solutions. As research in this field advances, ongoing efforts seek to enhance the sensitivity and selectivity of these sensors, optimizing their performance for real-world applications. This review highlights the significant advances, ongoing efforts to enhance the sensitivity and selectivity, and performance optimization of nanocarbon-based sensors along with their working mechanism in the field of SHM for smart biocomposites. The key challenges and future research perspectives facing the conversion of nanocarbons to smart biocomposites are also displayed.

Abstract
Methylation of the promoter region of cancer related genes plays a crucial role in the occurrence and development of cancer, and the degree of methylation has great potential for the early cancer diagnosis. At present, the technology used to quantify DNA methylation is mainly based on the DNA sequencing which are time-consuming and high-cost in the relating application. We have developed an ultrasensitive method of methylation specific enzyme-linked oligonucleotide assays (MS-ELONA) to detect and quantify the level of DNA methylation. We could detect as little as 2 pg of methylated DNA in the 100000-fold excess of unmethylated genes, and discriminate prostate cancer from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and control with serum samples. We also demonstrate the reversibility of DNA methylation modification by treatment with demethylation drugs. With 16-channel electrochemical work station, our research reveals a simple and inexpensive method to quantify the methylation level of specially appointed genes, and have the potential to be applied in the clinical research.

Abstract
A highly sensitive and specific detection of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT), a typical nitrated aromatic explosive, was demonstrated by a silicon nanowire (SiNW) array sensor. The SiNW array devices were self-assembled and functionalized with the anti-TNT peptide to obtain unique sensitivity toward TNT. Also, the effect of the biointerfacing linker's chemistry and Debye screening with varied ionic strength of phosphate buffer solution (PBS) on TNT binding response signals were investigated. The optimization of the peptide-functionalized SiNW array sensor showed high sensitivity for TNT with a detection limit of 0.2 fM, the highest sensitivity reported to date. These initial promising results may help accelerate the development of portable sensors for femtomolar level TNT detection.

Abstract
microRNA (miRNA) is a kind of small non-coding RNA that has been regarded as potential biomarkers for cancers. Sensitive and specific detection of miRNA at low expression levels is highly desirable but remains challenging, especially for amplification-free and portable point of care (POC) diagnostics. The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas13a has been recently discovered and used in the field of RNA detection. Nonetheless, most CRISPR/Cas13a-based methods were burdened with expensive equipment, time-consuming procedures, and complicated operations which were not suitable for POC analysis. In this work, we constructed a three-dimensional tetrahedral DNA framework based CRISPR-electrochemical biosensor (CRISPR-E). By combining tetrahedral DNA framework, CRISPR, and electrochemical biosensor, the process of activation, cleavage of Cas13a, and signal readout were all finished on the chip, and a simple, amplification-free and sensitive detection of miRNA-19b was realized. Under the optimal experimental conditions, a linear range from 10 pM to 104 pM with detection limit of 10 pM for miRNA-19b in buffer solution was achieved. Selectivity analysis indicated that our CRISPR-E had good distinguishing ability between miRNA-19b and miRNA-197. The results of miRNA-19b detection in mimic serum samples were consistent with that of the buffer solution. This all-on-chip strategy of our CRISPR-E is very suitable for POC testing.

Abstract
Exosomes have been gaining attention for early cancer diagnosis owing to their biological functions in cells. Several studies have reported the relevance of exosomes in various diseases, including pancreatic cancer, retroperitoneal fibrosis, obesity, neurodegenerative diseases, and atherosclerosis. Particularly, exosomes are regarded as biomarkers for cancer diagnosis and can be detected in biofluids, such as saliva, urine, peritoneal fluid, and blood. Thus, exosomes are advantageous for cancer liquid biopsies as they overcome the current limitations of cancer tissue biopsies. Several studies have reported methods for exosome isolation, and analysis for cancer diagnosis. However, further clinical trials are still required to determine accurate exosome concentration quantification methods. Recently, various biosensors have been developed to detect exosomal biomarkers, including tumor-derived exosomes, nucleic acids, and proteins. Among these, the exact quantification of tumor-derived exosomes is a serious obstacle to the clinical use of liquid biopsies. Precise detection of exosome concentration is difficult because it requires clinical sample pretreatment. To solve this problem, the use of the nanobiohybrid material-based biosensor provides improved sensitivity and selectivity. The present review will discuss recent progress in exosome biosensors consisting of nanomaterials and biomaterial hybrids for electrochemical, electrical, and optical-based biosensors.

Abstract
A ratiometric electrochemical immunosensor, based on DNA tetrahedron nanostructure (DTNS), is introduced for vegetable phoxim determination. DTNS spontaneously adheres onto gold-nanoparticle-modified electrode and forms stable three-dimensional structure, providing plenty of binding sites to the built-in reference, methylene blue (MB). Monoclonal antibody (m-Ab) is vertically linked onto DTNS vertex, selectively responses antigenic phoxim, and promotes the target signal of IPHO. Thus, a ratiometric indicator, IPHO/IMB, is sensibly established with the target signal (IPHO) and the reference signal (IMB). Modifications, mechanisms and advances of the proposed method are subsequently examined with morphological methods and electrochemical experiments. This method brings considerable advances in analytical behaviors. The ratiometric signal presents better performance than solo system in repeatability and long-time stability. As-fabricated sensor presents wide dynamic range as 0.1∼30 μg/L, and limit of detection is well defined as 0.003 μg/L (S/N = 3). Finally, this method is verified with real-vegetable-sample analysis, certified HPLC and recovery test.

Abstract
Tumor-associated cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is a dynamic biomarker for genetic analysis, early diagnosis and clinical treatment of cancers. However, its detection has limitations because of its low abundance in blood or other complex bodily fluids. Herein, we developed an ultrasensitive cfDNA electrochemical biosensor (E-cfDNA sensor) based on tetrahedral DNA framework (TDF)-modified gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) with an interface for cfDNA detection. By accurately controlling the numbers of base pairs on each DNA framework, three types of TDFs were programmed: 26 base pairs of TDF; 17 base pairs of TDF; and 7 base pairs of TDF (TDF-26, TDF-16 and TDF-7, respectively). We also combined the TDF with hybridization chain reaction (HCR) to achieve signal amplification. Under optimal conditions, we detected the breast cancer susceptibility gene 1 (BRCA-1), a representative cfDNA closely related to breast cancer. An ultra-low detection limit of 1 aM with a linear range from 1 aM to 1 pM by TDF-26 was obtained, which was superior to the existing methods. Each type of TDF has excellent discrimination ability, which can distinguish single mismatch. More significantly, we also detected BRCA-1 in mimic serum samples, demonstrating that the E-cfDNA sensor has potential use in clinical research.

A Carbon-Based Antifouling Nano-Biosensing Interface for Label-Free POCT of HbA1c. BIOSENSORS-BASEL 2021; 11:bios11040118. [PMID: 33921226 PMCID: PMC8069255 DOI: 10.3390/bios11040118] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2021] [Revised: 04/05/2021] [Accepted: 04/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
Electrochemical biosensing relies on electron transport on electrode surfaces. However, electrode inactivation and biofouling caused by a complex biological sample severely decrease the efficiency of electron transfer and the specificity of biosensing. Here, we designed a three-dimensional antifouling nano-biosensing interface to improve the efficiency of electron transfer by a layer of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) cross-linked with glutaraldehyde (GA). The electrochemical properties of the BSA/MWCNTs/GA layer were investigated using both cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance to demonstrate its high-efficiency antifouling nano-biosensing interface. The BSA/MWCNTs/GA layer kept 92% of the original signal in 1% BSA and 88% of that in unprocessed human serum after a 1-month exposure, respectively. Importantly, we functionalized the BSA/MWCNTs/GA layer with HbA1c antibody (anti-HbA1c) and 3-aminophenylboronic acid (APBA) for sensitive detection of glycated hemoglobin A (HbA1c). The label-free direct electrocatalytic oxidation of HbA1c was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The linear dynamic range of 2 to 15% of blood glycated hemoglobin A (HbA1c) in non-glycated hemoglobin (HbAo) was determined. The detection limit was 0.4%. This high degree of differentiation would facilitate a label-free POCT detection of HbA1c.
