Abstract
Tetracycline is a broad-spectrum antibiotic for human, poultry and livestock that may cause health damage when enriched in humans. Therefore, it is essential to create a rapid tetracycline assay with high sensitivity, specificity and portability. In this study, a miniaturized tetracycline biosensor based on aptamer-modified graphene field-effect transistor (Apt-SGGT) was fabricated and two detection strategies using transfer characteristic curves and real-time channel current were established for different circumstances. The detection limits of the two strategies were 2.073 pM and 100 pM, respectively. The biosensor also demonstrated outstanding stability, anti-interference and specificity ability. Finally, the biosensor was employed to detect the content of tetracycline in Skim Milk with outstanding recovery rate. We believe that the miniaturized Apt-SGGT biosensor with appropriate detection strategies will provide an ideal portable sensing platform for many important analytes in food with superior selectivity and sensitivity.

Abstract
Field-effect transistor (FET) biosensors use FETs to detect changes in the amount of electrical charge caused by biomolecules like antigens and antibodies. COVID-19 can be detected by employing these biosensors by immobilising bio-receptor molecules that bind to the SARS-CoV-2 virus on the FET channel surface and subsequent monitoring of the changes in the current triggered by the virus. Graphene Field-effect Transistor (GFET)-based biosensors utilise graphene, a two-dimensional material with high electrical conductivity, as the sensing element. These biosensors can rapidly detect several biomolecules including the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which is responsible for COVID-19. GFETs are ideal for real-time infectious illness diagnosis due to their great sensitivity and specificity. These graphene transistor-based biosensors could revolutionise clinical diagnostics by generating fast, accurate data that could aid pandemic management. GFETs can also be integrated into point-of-care (POC) diagnostic equipment. Recent advances in GFET-type biosensors for SARS-CoV-2 detection are discussed here, along with their associated challenges and future scope.

Abstract
Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is the common serum-relevant biomarker for early prostate cancer (PCa) detection in clinical diagnosis. However, it is difficult to accurately diagnose PCa in the early stage due to the low specificity of PSA. Herein, a new solution-gated graphene field transistor (SGGT) biosensor with dual-gate for dual-biomarker detection is designed. The sensing mechanism is that the designed aptamers immobilized on the surface of the gate electrodes can capture PSA and sarcosine (SAR) biomolecules and induce the capacitance changes of the electric double layers of SGGT. The limit of detections of PSA and SAR biomarkers can reach 0.01 fg mL-1 , which is three-to-four orders of magnitude lower than previously reported assays. The detection time of PSA and SAR is ≈4.5 and ≈13 min, which is significantly faster than the detection time (1-2 h) of conventional methods. The clinical serum samples testing demonstrates that the biosensor can distinguish the PCa patients from the control group and the diagnosis accuracy can reach 100%. The SGGT biosensor can be integrated into the portable platform and the diagnostic results can directly display on the smartphone/Pad. Therefore, the integrated portable platform of the biosensor can distinguish cancer types through the dual-biomarker detection.

Abstract
CRISPR/Cas system is becoming an increasingly influential technology that has been repositioned in nucleic acid detection. A preamplification step is usually required to improve the sensitivity of CRISPR/Cas-based detection. The striking biological features of CRISPR/Cas, including programmability, high sensitivity and sequence specificity, and single-base resolution. More strikingly, the target-activated trans-cleavage could act as a biocatalytic signal transductor and amplifier, thereby empowering it to potentially perform nucleic acid detection without a preamplification step. The reports of such work are on the rise, which is not only scientifically significant but also promising for futuristic end-user applications. This review started with the introduction of the detection methods of nucleic acids and the CRISPR/Cas-based diagnostics (CRISPR-Dx). Next, we objectively discussed the pros and cons of preamplification steps for CRISPR-Dx. We then illustrated and highlighted the recently developed strategies for CRISPR/Cas-powered amplification-free detection that can be realized through the uses of ultralocalized reactors, cascade reactions, ultrasensitive detection systems, or others. Lastly, the challenges and futuristic perspectives were proposed. It can be expected that this work not only makes the researchers better understand the current strategies for this emerging field, but also provides insight for designing novel CRISPR-Dx without a preamplification step to win practicable use in the near future.

Abstract
The persistent infection of high-risk-human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16) is considered an essential element for suffering cervical cancer. Despite polymerase chain reaction, loop-mediated amplification, and microfluidic chips are used to detect the HPV16, these methods still exist some drawbacks including time-consuming and false positive results. The CRISPR-Cas system is widely used in the region of biological detection due to its precise targeted recognition capability. In this contribution, the novel solution-gated graphene transistor sensor is designed to realize the unamplified and label-free detection of HPV16 DNA. Using the precise recognition of the CRISPR-Cas12a system and the gate functionalization, HPV16 DNA can be precisely identified without need the amplification and labeling. The limit of detection of the sensor can be up to 8.3 × 10-18 m and the detection can be within 20 min. Additionally, the heat-Inactivated clinical samples can be clearly distinguished by the sensor the diagnosis results have a high degree of agreement with q-PCR detection.
