Abstract
Heparin, being a widely employed anticoagulant in numerus clinical complications, requires strict quantification and qualitative screening to ensure the safety of patients from potential threat of thrombocytopenia. However, the intricacy of heparin's chemical structures and low abundance hinders the precise monitoring of its level and quality in clinical settings. Conventional laboratory assays have limitations in sensitivity and specificity, necessitating the development of innovative approaches. In this context, nanosensors emerged as a promising solution due to enhanced sensitivity, selectivity, and ability to detect heparin even at low concentrations. This review delves into a range of sensing approaches including colorimetric, fluorometric, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, and electrochemical techniques using different types of nanomaterials, thus providing insights of its principles, capabilities, and limitations. Moreover, integration of smart-phone with nanosensors for point of care diagnostics has also been explored. Additionally, recent advances in nanopore technologies, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) have been discussed offering specificity against contaminants present in heparin to ensure its quality. By consolidating current knowledge and highlighting the potential of nanosensors, this review aims to contribute to the advancement of efficient, reliable, and economical heparin detection methods providing improved patient care.

PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2024; 308:123670. [PMID: 38006866 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2023.123670] [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: 09/01/2023] [Revised: 11/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/19/2023] [Indexed: 11/27/2023]
Abstract
A highly sensitive detection platform for heparin was constructed via the utilization of a commercially available cationic fluorescent dye (cresyl violet acetate, CV) as a fluorescence probe. The electrostatic binding between CV and heparin quenched the fluorescence in 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic (HEPES) buffer solution (10 mM, pH 7.1). CV was highly selective towards heparin over other potential inferring substances. The detection limit of heparin detection was 5.19 ng/mL, and the linear working range was 0 ∼ 1 μg/mL in HEPES solution. In 1 % serum, the detection platform based on the fluorescence "turn-off" behavior of CV was also successfully constructed with a detection limit of 5.86 ng/mL in the linear range of 0 ∼ 0.8 μg/mL. Moreover, the CV-heparin complex was considered a potential sensor platform for the detection of protamine because of its stronger affinity for heparin and protamine.

Abstract
Monitoring ctDNA in blood is important for cancer management. Here, a one-step single particle counting approach was developed for directly quantifying ctDNA in plasma. Hairpin DNA containing a triple helix stem was immobilized onto QD 585 as a probe. The hairpin was opened by the target, and therefore hybridized with assistant DNA on QD 655, resulting in an aggregate of QD 585 and QD 655. The two-color QD aggregate was regarded as the target. Observed under a single particle transmission grating-based spectral microscope, the two-color QD aggregate was distinguished by a unique spectral pattern of two first-order streaks, and it was counted. The difference in the responses of the probes to perfect-match DNA, single-base mismatch DNA, and non-match DNA indicated that the probe had sufficient single-base discrimination capabilities. The success in plasma recovery tests demonstrated the feasibility of carrying out the direct detection of ctDNA in plasma.

Abstract
The heparin family, which includes unfractionated heparin, low-molecular heparin, and fondaparinux, is a class of drugs clinically used as intravenous blood thinners. To date, issues related to both the reversal of anticoagulation and the blood level determination of the anticoagulant at the point-of-care remain: while the only U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved antidote for heparin displays serious efficacy and safety drawbacks, the current assays for heparin monitoring are indirect measurements subject to their own limitations and variations. Herein, we provide an update on the numerous recent chemical approaches to tackle these issues, from which it is clear that some new antidotes and sensors for heparin certainly have the potential to exceed current clinical standards. This review aims to review a field that requires close collaborations between physicians, biologists, and chemists in order to foster advances toward clinical translation.

Abstract
A novel fluorescence 'Switch on' for the detection of heparin based on the RhB-COL/GO system was achieved. A strong fluorescence dye, Rhodamine B, was modified by chitosan oligosaccharide lactate (COL), which plays a major role in the formation of a positively charged RhB-COL complex. RhB-COL was soluble and stable in solution, which was characterized by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. GO sheets quenched the fluorescence intensity of RhB-COL due to electron transfer from RhB to the GO surface. The decrease in fluorescence intensity of RhB-COL with increasing GO concentration was recorded using a Cary Eclipse fluorescence spectrophotometer. On the other hand, the addition of heparin replaced GO to bind with the RhB-COL surface via an electrostatic and noncovalent bond due to the abundant negative charge, which resulted in recovery of the fluorescence intensity. This RhB-COL/GO system possessed high selectivity and good sensitivity for the detection of heparin compared to other biomolecules, such as glycine, D-glucose, hyaluronic acid, L-glutamic acid, and ascorbic acid. The linear response toward heparin was measured over the range, 0-1.8 U · ml-1, with a low detection limit of 0.04 U · ml-1. The satisfactory sensing performance of RhB-COL/GO for heparin supports new 'switch-on' sensor applications in heparin-related biomedical detection.

Abstract
Quantum dots (QDs), also known as nanoscale semiconductor crystals, are nanoparticles with unique optical and electronic properties such as bright and intensive fluorescence. Since most conventional organic label dyes do not offer the near-infrared (>650 nm) emission possibility, QDs, with their tunable optical properties, have gained a lot of interest. They possess characteristics such as good chemical and photo-stability, high quantum yield and size-tunable light emission. Different types of QDs can be excited with the same light wavelength, and their narrow emission bands can be detected simultaneously for multiple assays. There is an increasing interest in the development of nano-theranostics platforms for simultaneous sensing, imaging and therapy. QDs have great potential for such applications, with notable results already published in the fields of sensors, drug delivery and biomedical imaging. This review summarizes the latest developments available in literature regarding the use of QDs for medical applications.
