Abstract
Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) quantum dots (QDs) based therapeutic approaches hold great promise for biomedical applications, necessitating a thorough evaluation of their potential effects on biological systems. In this study, we systematically investigated the impact of MoS2 QDs coated with 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-[amino(polyethyleneglycol)-2000](DPSE-PEG) linked with (3-carboxypropyl)triphenyl-phosphonium-bromide (TPP) on molecular structures of hepatic tissue lipids and proteins through a multifaceted analysis. The DSPE-PEG-TPP-MoS2 QDs were prepared and administered to the mice daily for 7 weeks. Liver tissues were subjected to a comprehensive examination using various techniques, including Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy, and liver function tests. FTIR revealed subtle changes in the lipid composition of liver tissues, indicating potential modifications in the cell membrane structure. Also, the (CH stretching and amides I and II regions) analysis unveiled tiny alterations in lipid chain length and fluidity without changes in the protein structures, suggesting a minor influence of DSPE-PEG-TPP-MoS2 QDs on the liver's cellular membrane and no effect on the protein structures. Further scrutiny using UV-vis spectroscopy demonstrated that DSPE-PEG-TPP-MoS2 QDs had no discernible impact on the absorbance intensities of aromatic amino acids and the Soret band. This observation implies that the treatment with SPE-PEG-TPP-MoS2 QDs did not induce significant alterations in helical conformation or the microenvironment surrounding prosthetic groups in liver tissues. The liver function tests, including ALP, ALT, AST, and BIL levels, revealed no statistically significant changes in these key biomarkers despite minor fluctuations in their values, indicating a lack of significant liver dysfunction. This study provides a detailed understanding of the effects of DSPE-PEG-TPP-MoS2 QDs on hepatic lipids and proteins, offering valuable insights into the biocompatibility and limited impact on the molecular and functional aspects of the liver tissue. These findings could be essential for the application of MoS2 QDs-based therapies.

Abstract
An innovative aptasensor incorporating MoS2-modified bicolor quantum dots and a portable spectrometer, designed for the simultaneous detection of ochratoxin A (OTA) and aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in corn was developed. Carbon dots and CdZnTe quantum dots were as nano-donors to label OTA and AFB1 aptamers, respectively. These labeled aptamers were subsequently attached to MoS2 receptors, enabling fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). With targets, the labeled aptamers detached from the nano-donors, thereby disrupting the FRET process and resulting in fluorescence recovery. Furthermore, a portable dual-mode fluorescence detection system, complemented with customized python-based analysis software, was developed to facilitate rapid and convenient detection using this dual-color FRET aptasensor. The developed host program is connected to the spectrometer and transmits data to the cloud, enabling the device to have Internet of Things (IoT) characteristics. Connected to the cloud, this IoT-enabled device offers convenient and reliable fungal toxin detection for food safety.

Abstract
Label-free nucleic acid fluorescent probes are gaining popularity due to their low cost and ease of application. However, the primary challenges associated with label-free fluorescent probes stem from their tendency to interact with other biomolecules, such as RNA, proteins, and enzymes, which results in low specificity. In this work, we have developed a simple detection platform that utilizes Fe3O4@PPy in combination with a label-free nucleic acid probe, 1,1,2,2-tetrakis[4-(2-bromo-ethoxy)phenyl]ethene (TTAPE) or Malachite Green (MG), for highly selective detection of metal ions, acetamiprid, and thrombin. Fe3O4@PPy not only adsorbs aptamers through electrostatic interactions, π-π bonding, and hydrogen bonding, but also quenches the fluorescence of the TTAPE/MG. Upon the addition of target compounds, the aptasensor separates from Fe3O4@PPy through magnetic separation. Moreover, by changing different aptamers, the aptasensor was applied to detect metal ions, acetamiprid, and thrombin, with the turned-on photoluminescence (PL) emission intensity recorded and showing linearity to the concentrations of targets. The robustness of method was demonstrated by applying it to real samples, which included vegetables (for detecting acetamiprid with LODs of 0.02 and 0.04 ng/L), serum samples (for detecting thrombin with LODs of 5.5 and 4.3 nM), and water samples (for detecting Pb2+ with an LOD of 0.17 nM). Therefore, due to its impressive selectivity and sensitivity, the Fe3O4@PPy aptasensor could be utilized as a universal detection platform for various clinical and environmental applications.

Abstract
Clinical oncology is currently experiencing a technology bottleneck due to the expeditious evolution of therapy defiance in tumors. Although drugs used in chemotherapy work for a sort of cell death with potential clinical application, the effectiveness of chemotherapy-inducing drugs is subject to several endogenous conditions when used alone, necessitating the urgent need for controlled mechanisms. A tumor-targeted drug delivery therapy using Li-Al (M+/M3+)-based layered double hydroxide (LDHs) family has been proposed with the general chemical formula [M+1-x M3+x (OH)]2x+[(Am-)2x/m. n(H2O)]2x-, which is fully biodegradable and works in connection with the therapeutic interaction between LDH nanocarriers and anticancerous doxorubicin (DOX). Compositional variation of Li and Al in LDHs has been used as a nanoplatform, which provides a functional balance between circulation lifetime, drug loading capacity, encapsulation efficiency, and tumor-specific uptake to act as self-regulatory therapeutic cargo to be released intracellularly. First-principle analyses based on DFT have been employed to investigate the interaction of bonding and electronic structure of LDH with DOX and assess its capability and potential for a superior drug carrier. Following the internalization into cancer cells, nanoformulations are carried to the nucleus via lysosomes, and the mechanistic pathways have been revealed. Additionally, in vitro along with in vivo therapeutic assessments on melanoma-bearing mice show a dimensional effect of nanoformulation for better biocompatibility and excellent synergetic anticancer activity. Further, the severe toxic consequences associated with traditional chemotherapy have been eradicated by using injectable hydrogel placed just beneath the tumor site, and regulated release of the drug has been confirmed through protein expression applying various markers. However, Li-Al-based LDH nanocarriers open up new design options for multifunctional nanomedicine, which has intriguing potential for use in cancer treatment through sustained drug delivery.

Abstract
Traditionally, the acquisition of 2D materials involved the exfoliation of layered crystals. However, the anisotropic bonding arrangements within 3D crystals indicate they are mechanically reminiscent of 2D counterparts and could also be exfoliated into nanosheets. This report delineates the preparation of 2D nanosheets from six representative 3D metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) through liquid-phase exfoliation. Notably, the cleavage planes of exfoliated nanosheets align perpendicular to the direction of the minimum elastic modulus (Emin) within the pristine 3D frameworks. The findings suggest that the in-plane and out-of-plane bonding forces of the exfoliated nanosheets can be correlated with the maximum elastic modulus (Emax) and Emin of the 3D frameworks, respectively. Emax influences the ease of cleaving adjacent layers, while Emin governs the ability to resist cracking of layers. Hence, a combination of large Emax and small Emin indicates an efficient exfoliation process, and vice versa. The ratio of Emax/Emin, denoted as Amax/min, is adopted as a universal index to quantify the ease of mechanical exfoliation for 3D MOFs. This ratio, readily accessible through mechanical experiments and computation, serves as a valuable metric for selecting appropriate exfoliation methods to produce surfactant-free 2D nanosheets from various 3D materials.

Abstract
In this work, we employ molecular dynamics simulations with semi-empirical interatomic potentials to explore heat dissipation in Janus transition metal dichalcogenides (JTMDs). The middle atomic layer is composed of either molybdenum (Mo) or tungsten (W) atoms, and the top and bottom atomic layers consist of sulfur (S) and selenium (Se) atoms, respectively. Various nanomaterials have been investigated, including both pristine JTMDs and nanostructures incorporating inner triangular regions with a composition distinct from the outer bulk material. At the beginning of our simulations, a temperature gradient across the system is imposed by heating the central region to a high temperature while the surrounding area remains at room temperature. Once a steady state is reached, characterized by a constant energy flux, the temperature control in the central region is switched off. The heat attenuation is investigated by monitoring the characteristic relaxation time (τav) of the local temperature at the central region toward thermal equilibrium. We find that SMoSe JTMDs exhibit thermal attenuation similar to conventional TMDs (τav~10-15 ps). On the contrary, SWSe JTMDs feature relaxation times up to two times as high (τav~14-28 ps). Forming triangular lateral heterostructures in their surfaces leads to a significant slowdown in heat attenuation by up to about an order of magnitude (τav~100 ps).

Abstract
Typical fluorescent biosensors use fluorescently labeled ssDNA for target recognition and nanomaterials for signal transduction. Herein, we propose a reverse sensing strategy that Mo5N6 nanosheets are used for target recognition while fluorescein (FAM)-labeled ssDNA only serves for signal generation. We discover that Mo5N6 nanosheets show high fluorescence quenching ability (>95%) and selective recognition for sodium hexametaphosphate (SHMP). After FAM-labeled ssDNA is adsorbed on Mo5N6 nanosheets, the fluorescence is quenched due to the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) effect between FAM and Mo5N6 nanosheets. SHMP can specifically displace the adsorbed FAM-labeled ssDNA from Mo5N6 nanosheets, resulting in more than 80% fluorescence recovery on addition of 5 μmol L-1 SHMP. This biosensor can sensitively detect SHMP down to 150 nmol L-1 and selectively recognize SHMP over glucose, lactose, common amino acids, Zn2+, Mg2+, Ca2+ and other phosphates (such as Na2HPO4, sodium pyrophosphate, sodium tripolyphosphate). This biosensor also shows great potential for the detection of SHMP in bacon sample. This work not only provides a facile sensitive and selective biosensor for SHMP but also exploits the application of transition metal nitrides in the field of sensing and biosensing.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) represents the leading cause of cardiovascular death worldwide, and it is thus pivotal to develop effective approaches for the timely detection of AMI markers, especially possessing the characteristics of antibody-free, signal amplification, and manipulation convenience. We herein construct a MoS2 nanosheet-powered CRISPR/Cas12a sensing strategy for sensitive determination of miR-499, a superior AMI biomarker to protein markers. The presence of miR-499 at a trace level is able to induce a significantly enhanced fluorescence signal in a DNA-based molecular engineering platform, which consists of CRISPR/Cas12a enzymatic reactions and MoS2 nanosheet-controllable signal reporting components. The MoS2 nanosheets were characterized by using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The detection feasibility was verified by using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) analysis and fluorescence measurements. The detection limit is determined as 381.78 pM with the linear range from 0.1 ⅹ 10-9 to 13.33 ⅹ 10-9 M in a fast manner (about 30 min). Furthermore, miRNA detection in real human serum is also conducted with desirable recovery rates (89.5 %-97.6 %), which may find potential application for the clinic diagnosis. We describe herein the first example of MoS2 nanosheet-based signal amplified fluorescence sensor for effective detection of AMI-related miRNA.

Abstract
Understanding of DNA interaction with carbonaceous surfaces (including graphite, graphene and carbon nanotubes) is important for the development of DNA-based biosensors and other biotechnological devices. Though many issues related to DNA adsorption on graphitic surfaces have been studied, some important aspects of DNA interaction with graphite remain unclear. In this work, we use atomic force microscopy (AFM) equipped with super-sharp cantilevers to analyze the morphology and conformation of relatively long DNA molecule adsorbed on a highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surface. We have revealed the effect of DNA embedding into an organic monolayer of N,N'-(decane-1,10-diyl)-bis(tetraglycinamide) (GM), which may "freeze" DNA conformation on a HOPG surface during drying. The dependence of the mean squared point-to-point distance on the contour length suggests that DNA adsorbs on a bare HOPG by a "kinetic trapping" mechanism. For the first time, we have estimated the unfolded fraction of DNA upon contact with a HOPG surface (24 ± 5 %). The obtained results represent a novel experimental model for investigation of the conformation and morphology of DNA adsorbed on graphitic surfaces and provide with a new insight into DNA interaction with graphite.

Abstract
Addressing the limitations observed in previous studies, where the quantitative range of nanoprobes for detecting K+ and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) did not cover concentrations found within living cells, the present study aimed to develop ratiometric nanoprobes that can accurately sense changes in K+ and ATP levels in living cells and quantify them in human fluids. The proposed nanoprobes consisted of recognition flares modified with 6-carboxyfluorescein (FAM) and 5-carboxytetramethylrhodamine (TAMRA), along with thiolate single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and molybdenum disulfide nanosheets (MoS2 NSs). The thiolate ssDNA acts as a linker between the flares and the MoS2 NSs, directly forming a functional nanostructure at room temperature. The direct conjugation of labeled flares to the MoS2 NSs simplifies the fabrication process. In the absence of K+ and ATP, the hybridization of flares and thiolate ssDNA caused FAM to move away from TAMRA, suppressing the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) process. However, upon the introduction of K+ and ATP, the flares undergo a structural transformation via the formation of G-quadruplex formation and the generation of hairpin-shaped structures, respectively. This structural change leads to the release of the flares from the ssDNA-conjugated nanosheet surface. The release of the flares brings FAM and TAMRA into close proximity, allowing FRET to occur, leading to FRET and static quenching. By monitoring the ratio between the fluorescence intensities of FAM and TAMRA, the concentration of K+ (5-100 mM) and ATP (0.3-5 mM) can be accurately determined by the proposed nanoprobes. The advantages of these nanoprobes lie in their ability to provide ratiometric measurements, which enhance the accuracy and reliability of the quantification process. The proposed nanoprobes offer potential applications as ratiometric imaging probes for monitoring K+ and ATP-related reactions in living cells, providing valuable insights into cellular processes. Additionally, they can be employed for determining the levels of K+ and ATP in human fluids, offering potential diagnostic applications in various clinical settings.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a new class of functional solids featuring several fantastic structural characteristics, including a great diversity of building units and cross-linking patterns, precise integration of building blocks, and adjustable topology of porous architecture. In addition to the above features, some COF samples are constructed with high-density conjugated fragments, which have unique potential advantages in fluorescence imaging, and thus may have great potential applications in bioimaging. Herein, this article summarizes the recent progress in the design and preparation of fluorescent covalent organic frameworks. We investigate the systemic correlation between the structural qualities of COF networks and biological sensors. Finally, the significant advantages, major challenges, and future opportunities of fluorescent covalent organic frameworks are discussed for the development of next-generation porous materials for sensing applications.

Abstract
Nanofluidic biosensors have been widely used for detection of analytes based on the change of system resistance before and after target-probe interactions. However, their sensitivity is limited when system resistance barely changes toward low-concentration targets. Here, we proposed a strategy to address this issue by means of target-induced change of local membrane potential under relatively unchanged system resistance. The local membrane potential originated from the directional diffusion of photogenerated carriers across nanofluidic biosensors and gated photoinduced ionic current signal before and after target-probe interactions. The sensitivity of such biosensors for the detection of biomolecules such as circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and lysozyme exceeds that of applying a traditional strategy by more than 3 orders of magnitude under unchanged system resistance. Such biosensors can specifically detect the small molecule biomarker in the blood sample between prostate cancer patients and healthy humans. The key advantages of such nanofluidic biosensors are therefore complementary to traditional nanofluidic biosensors, with potential applications in a point-of-care analytical tool.

Abstract
Following the discovery of graphene, there has been a surge in exploring other two-dimensional (2D) nanocrystals, including MoS2. Over the past few decades, MoS2-based nanocrystals have shown great potential applications in biosensing, owing to their excellent physico-chemical properties. Unlike graphene, MoS2 shows layer-dependent finite band gaps (∼1.8 eV for a single layer and ∼1.2 for bulk) and relatively strong interaction with the electromagnetic spectrum. The tunability of the size, shape, and intrinsic properties, such as high optical absorption, electron mobility, mechanical strength and large surface area, of MoS2 nanocrystals, make them excellent alternative probe materials for preparing optical, photothermal, and electrical bio/immunosensors. In this review, we will provide insights into the rapid evolutions in bio/immunosensing applications based on MoS2 and its nanohybrids. We emphasized the various synthesis, characterization, and functionalization routes of 2D MoS2 nanosheets/nanoflakes. Finally, we discussed various fabrication techniques and the critical parameters, including the limit of detection (LOD), linear detection range, and sensitivity of the biosensors. In addition, the role of MoS2 in enhancing the performance of biosensors, the limitations associated with current biosensing technologies, future challenges, and clinical implications are addressed. The advantages/disadvantages of each biosensor technique are also summarized. Collectively, we believe that this review will encourage resolute researchers to follow up further with the state-of-the-art MoS2-based biosensing technology.

Abstract
MXene two-dimensional materials have been widely used in energy storage, catalysis, sensing and other fields, Nb2C as a typical two-dimensional MXene material, its exploration in the field of optoelectronics is still in its infancy, especially Nb2C-based photodetectors are still to be developed. This paper demonstrates that two-dimensional films based on few-layer Nb2C have a photoelectric response in the wavelength range from visible to near-infrared. We have found that the light response performance can be easily adjusted by controlling the thickness of the spin-coated film, and that Nb2C photodetectors show great advantages in terms of wide bandwidth, polarization response, high switching ratio, etc. By adjusting the material concentration and sample thickness, the photocurrent can reach up to 330 nA, the switching ratio can reach 410, and the responsivity can reach 8.3 × 10-4A W-1. In the polarization characteristic test, an extinction ratio of 7.6 can be obtained. By adjusting the content of that doped MoS2quantum dot, the dark current can reach 7.6 × 10-13A, and the switching ratio can reach 3 × 105, which can be increased by 700 times. The above results show that the few-layer Nb2C nanosheets can be used as optoelectronic detectors in the visible to near-infrared bands, which further broadens the application prospects of two-dimensional MXene.

Abstract
We employ molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to investigate the influence of boridene on the behavior of a protein model, HP35, with the aim of assessing the potential biotoxicity of boridene. Our MD results reveal that HP35 can undergo unfolding via an "anchoring-perturbation" mechanism upon adsorption onto the boridene surface. Specifically, the third helix of HP35 becomes tightly anchored to the boridene surface through strong electrostatic interactions between the abundant molybdenum atoms on the boridene surface and the oxygen atoms on the HP35 backbone. Meanwhile, the first helix, experiencing continuous perturbation from the surrounding water solution over an extended period, suffers from potential breakage of hydrogen bonds, ultimately resulting in its unfolding. Our findings not only propose, for the first time to our knowledge, the "anchoring-perturbation" mechanism as a guiding principle for protein unfolding but also reveal the potential toxicity of boridene on protein structures.

Abstract
Exosomes are 30-150 nm vesicles derived from diverse cell types, serving as one of the most important biomarkers for early diagnosis and prognosis of diseases. However, the conventional detection method for exosomes faces significant challenges, such as unsatisfactory sensitivity, complicated operation, and the requirement of complicated devices. In recent years, colorimetric exosome biosensors with a visual readout underwent rapid development due to the advances in natural enzyme-based assays and the integration of various types of nanozymes. These synthetic nanomaterials show unique physiochemical properties and catalytic abilities, enabling the construction of exosome colorimetric biosensors with novel principles. This review will illustrate the reaction mechanisms and properties of natural enzymes and nanozymes, followed by a detailed introduction of the recent advances in both types of enzyme-based colorimetric biosensors. A comparison between natural enzymes and nanozymes is made to provide insights into the research that improves the sensitivity and convenience of assays. Finally, the advantages, challenges, and future directions of enzymes as well as exosome colorimetric biosensors are highlighted, aiming at improving the overall performance from different approaches.

Abstract
Pathological bacterial infection poses a serious threat to public health security. The excessive use of antibiotics has resulted in a serious decline in treatment effect and bacterial resistance. For the treatment of infected wounds, we compounded dopamine-assisted exfoliated molybdenum disulfide (MoS2@PDA) into lipoic acid modified chitosan (LAMC) to obtain a composite hydrogel dressing (LAMC-MoS2@PDA). LAMC-MoS2@PDA hydrogels exhibited excellent photothermal conversion ability and the LAMC-MoS2@PDA2 group (0.3 wt%) has a photothermal conversion efficiency of 26.29 %. Meanwhile, they showed good biocompatibility and ROS scavenging activity in vitro. Photothermal therapy usually utilizes photothermal agents to convert near-infrared light into heat energy for bacterial cell membrane destruction and bacterial protein inactivation. Under the near-infrared light irradiation, the antibacterial ratio of LAMC-MoS2@PDA hydrogels against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli reached nearly 100 %, and the morphology of the bacteria showed obvious contraction and cleavage. The hydrogels also showed an excellent antibacterial effect and wound healing promotion in the infected wound of rats. In particular, the LAMC-MoS2@PDA2 (+) group (with NIR) showed almost complete wound closure after 14 days, indicating that the LAMC-MoS2@PDA hydrogels have great potential in clinical anti-infected treatment.

Abstract
The coronavirus disease-2019 pandemic reflects the underdevelopment of point-of-care diagnostic technology. Nuclei acid (NA) detection is the "gold standard" method for the early diagnosis of the B.1.1.529 (Omicron) variant of severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus disease-2. Polymerase chain reaction is the main method for NA detection but requires considerable manpower and sample processing taking ≥ 3 h. To simplify the operation processes and reduce the detection time, exonuclease III (Exo III)-aided MoS2 /AIE nanoprobes were developed for rapid and sensitive detection of the oligonucleotides of Omicron. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2 ) nanosheets with excellent optical absorbance and distinguishable affinity to single-strand and duplex DNAs were applied as quenchers, and aggregation-induced emission (AIE) molecules with high luminous efficiency were designed as donor in fluorescence resonance energy transfer-based nanoprobes. Exo III with catalytic capability was used for signal amplification to increase the sensitivity of detection. The composite nanoprobes detected the mutated nucleocapsid (N)-gene and spike (S)-gene oligonucleotides of Omicron within 40 min with a limit of detection of 4.7 pM, and showed great potential for application in community medicine.

[PMID: 38040141 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.128522] [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: 08/09/2023] [Revised: 11/12/2023] [Accepted: 11/28/2023] [Indexed: 12/03/2023]
Abstract
In this investigation, we have explored the protective capacity of MoS2 QDs coated with 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-[amino(polyethyleneglycol) -2000] (DSPE-PEG) linked with (3-carboxypropyl) triphenylphosphonium-bromide (TPP), on the secondary structure of proteins in Alzheimer's disease (AD)-affected brain tissues. Using a cohort of fifteen male SWR/J mice, we establish three groups: a control group, a second group induced with AD through daily doses of AlCl3 and D-galactose for 49 consecutive days, and a third group receiving the same AD-inducing doses but treated with DSPE-PEG-TPP-MoS2 QDs. Brain tissues are meticulously separated from the skull, and their molecular structures are analyzed via FTIR spectroscopy. Employing the curve fitting method on the amide I peak, we delve into the nuances of protein secondary structure. The FTIR analysis reveals a marked increase in β-sheet structures and a concurrent decline in turn and α-helix structures in the AD group in comparison to the control group. Notably, no statistically significant differences emerge between the treated and control mice. Furthermore, multivariate analysis of the FTIR spectral region, encompassing protein amide molecular structures, underscores a remarkable similarity between the treated and normal mice. This study elucidates the potential of DSPE-PEG-TPP-MoS2 QDs in shielding brain tissue proteins against the pathogenic influences of AD.

Abstract
To meet the increasing needs of point-of-care testing in clinical diagnosis and daily health monitoring, numerous cutting-edge techniques have emerged to upgrade current portable biosensors with higher sensitivity, smaller size, and better intelligence. In particular, due to the controlled locomotion characteristics in the micro/nano scale, microrobots can effectively enhance the sensitivity of biosensors by disrupting conventional passive diffusion into an active enrichment during the test. In addition, microrobots are ideal to create biosensors with functions of on-demand delivery, transportation, and multi-objective detections with the capability of actively controlled motion. In this review, five types of portable biosensors and their integration with microrobots are critically introduced. Microrobots can enhance the detection signal in fluorescence intensity and surface-enhanced Raman scattering detection via the active enrichment. The existence and quantity of detection substances also affect the motion state of microrobots for the locomotion-based detection. In addition, microrobots realize the indirect detection of the bio-molecules by functionalizing their surfaces in the electrochemical current and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy detections. We pay a special focus on the roles of microrobots with active locomotion to enhance the detection performance of portable sensors. At last, perspectives and future trends of microrobots in biosensing are also discussed.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) layered MoS2 has good dispersion and adsorption properties, but being a narrow bandgap semiconductor limits its application in photoelectric sensing. In this study, a homogeneous photoelectrochemical sensor based on three-dimensional (3D) ZnO/Au/2D MoS2 is proposed for the ultrasensitive detection of tetracycline (TET). MoS2 is uniformly embedded on the 3D ZnO/Au surface by ordered self-assembly. The physical method of π-π interaction of MoS2 replaces the conventional use of chemically modifying aptamers on the electrode material surface. Under optimal conditions, this method has been successfully applied to the detection of TET in milk, honey, pig kidney and pork samples with reliable results. We believe that this study presents a method for the preparation of sensing carriers and target detection with great potential for application.

Abstract
The world of 2D materials is steadily growing, with numerous researchers attempting to discover, elucidate, and exploit their properties. Approaches relying on the detection of single fluorescent molecules offer a set of advantages, for instance, high sensitivity and specificity, that allow the drawing of conclusions with unprecedented precision. Herein, it is argued how the study of 2D materials benefits from fluorescence-based single-molecule modalities, and vice versa. A special focus is placed on DNA, serving as a versatile adaptor when anchoring single dye molecules to 2D materials. The existing literature on the fruitful combination of the two fields is reviewed, and an outlook on the additional synergies that can be created between them provided.

Abstract
Technological advances in the detection of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) have made new options available for diagnosis, classification, biological studies, and treatment selection. However, effective and practical methods for analyzing this emerging class of biomarkers are still lacking. In this work, a fluorescent biosensor was designed for the label-free detection of ctDNA (EGFR 19 del for non-small cell lung cancer, NSCLC). The biosensor was based on the fact that MnO2 nanosheets (MnO2 NSs) have stronger affinity towards single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), as compared with double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). As a high-performance nanoenzyme, MnO2 NSs could oxidize dopamine (DA) into fluorescent polydopamine nanoparticles (FL-PDA NPs), which could be used as a fluorescence signal. The probe ssDNA could be adsorbed on the surface of MnO2 NSs through π-π stacking, and the active site would be masked, causing a lower fluorescence. After the targets were recognized by probe ssDNA to form dsDNA, its affinity for MnO2 NSs decreased and the active site recovered, causing a restored fluorescence. It was verified that Mn ions, •OH radicals and electron transfer were the important factors in the catalytic oxidation of DA. Under the optimal experimental conditions, this biosensor exhibited a detection limit of 380 pM and a linear range of 25-125 nM, providing reliable readout in a short time (45 min). This sensor exhibited outstanding specificity, stability and reproducibility. In addition, this sensor was applied to the detection of ctDNA in serum samples and cell lysates. It is demonstrated that FL-PDA NPs can be used as a fluorescence signal for easy, rapid and label-free detection of ctDNA without any other amplification strategies, and the proposed strategy has great potential for biomarker detection in the field of liquid biopsy.

Abstract
One of the highly attractive research directions in the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) field is how to regulate and improve ECL efficiency. Quantum dots (QDs) are highly promising ECL materials due to their adjustable luminescence size and strong luminous efficiency. MoS2 NSs@QDs, an ECL emitter, is synthesized via hydrothermal methods, and its ECL mechanism is investigated using cyclic voltammetry and ECL-potential curves. Then, a stable and vertical attachment of a triplex DNA (tsDNA) probe to the MoS2 nanosheets (NSs) is applied to the electrode. Next, an innovative ECL sensor is courageously empoldered for precise and ultrasensitive detection of target miRNA-199a through the agency of ECL-resonance energy transfer (RET) strategy and a dextrous target-initiated catalytic three-arm DNA junction assembly (CTDJA) based on a toehold strand displacement reaction (TSDR) signal amplification approach. Impressively, the ingenious system not only precisely regulates the distance between energy donor-acceptor pairs leave energy less loss and more ECL-RET efficiency, but also simplifies the operational procedure and verifies the feasibility of this self-assembly process without human intervention. This study can expand MoS2 NSs@QDs utilization in ECL biosensing applications, and the proposed nucleic acid amplification strategy can become a miracle cure for ultrasensitive detecting diverse biomarkers, which helps researchers to better study the tumor mechanism, thereby unambiguously increasing cancer cure rates and reducing the risk of recurrence.

Abstract
The interesting adsorption affinity of two-dimensional nanosheets to single stranded over double stranded nucleic acids have stimulated the exploration of these materials in biosensing. Herein, MoS2 nanosheets decorated anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) membrane was simply prepared by suction filtration. The MoS2/AAO hybrid membrane was initially applied to the electrochemical detection of microRNA using let-7a as the model. When let-7a was incubated with its complementary DNA, double stranded DNA-RNA formed and which displayed weak adsorption capability to the hybrid membrane. And thus the steric effect combining the electrostatic repulsion of the backbone phosphate of nucleic acids for [Fe(CN)6]3- transport across the hybrid membrane varied with the concentration of let-7a. In this way, a label-free electrochemical detection method for microRNA was established by monitoring the change of the redox current of [Fe(CN)6]3-. To further improve the detection sensitivity of the method, we proposed two separate strategies focusing on the amplification of the target-induced steric hindrance with DNA nanostructure and the magnification of the electrode sensitivity for [Fe(CN)6]3- by electrode modification. By using the two strategies, the hybrid membrane based-detection method exhibited broad linear range, low detection limit and good selectivity as well as reproducibility. Therefore, this study provided a proof-of-concept for the application of two-dimensional material to nucleic acids detection.

Abstract
Field-effect transistor (FET) biosensors based on two-dimensional materials have gained extensive attention due to their high sensitivity, label-free detection capability, and fast response. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), with tunable bandgap, high surface-to-volume ratio, and smooth surface without dangling bonds, is a promising material for FET biosensors. Previous reports have demonstrated the fabrication of MoS2-FET biosensors and their high sensitivity detection of proteins. However, most prior research has focused on the realization of MoS2-FETs for detecting different kinds of proteins or molecules, while comprehensive analysis of the sensing mechanism and dominant device factors of MoS2-FETs in response to proteins is yet to investigate. In this study, we first fabricated MoS2-FET biosensor and detected different types of proteins (immunoglobulin G (IgG),β-actin, and prostate-specific antigen (PSA)). Secondly, we built the model of the device and analyzed the sensing mechanism of MoS2-FETs in response to proteins. Experimental and modeling results showed that the induced doping effect and gating effect caused by the target protein binding to the device surface were the major influential factors. Specifically, the channel doping concentration and gate voltage (Vg) offset exhibited monotonic change as the concentration of the protein solution increases. For example, the channel doping concentration increased up to ∼37.9% and theVgoffset was ∼-1.3 V with 10-7μgμl-1IgG. The change was less affected by the device size. We also investigated the effects of proteins with opposite acid-base properties (β-actin and PSA) to IgG on the device sensing mechanism.β-actin and PSA exhibited behavior opposite to that of IgG. Additionally, we studied the response behavior of MoS2-FETs with different dimensions and dielectric materials (channel length, MoS2thickness, dielectric layer thickness, dielectric layer material) to proteins. The underlying mechanisms were discussed in details. This study provides valuable guidelines for the design and application of MoS2-FET biosensors.

Abstract
DNA has excellent molecular recognition properties. At the same time, DNA has a programmable structure, high stability, and can be easily modified, making DNA attractive for biosensor design. To convert DNA hybridization or aptamer binding events to physically detectable signals, various nanomaterials have been extensively exploited to take advantage of their optical and surface properties. A popular sensing scheme is through the adsorption of a fluorescently-labeled DNA probe, where detection is achieved by target-induced probe desorption and fluorescence recovery. Another method is to use DNA to protect the colloidal stability of nanomaterials, where subsequent target binding can decrease the protection ability and induce aggregation; this method has mainly been used for gold nanoparticles. This Perspective summarizes some of our work in examining the sensing mechanisms, and we articulate the importance of the understanding of DNA/surface and target/surface interactions for the development of practical DNA-based biosensors.

Abstract
Detecting Escherichia coli is essential in biomedical, environmental, and food safety applications. In this paper, we have developed a simple, rapid, sensitive, and selective E. coli DNA sensor based on the novel hybrid-type [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] nanosheets. The sensor uses the absorbance measurement to distinguish among the DNA of E. coli, Vibrio proteolyticus, and Bacillus subtilis when implemented in conjunction with [Formula: see text]-probes. Our experiments showed that the absorbance increased when sensors detected E. coli DNA, whereas it decreased when sensors detected V. proteolyticus and B. subtilis DNA. To the best of authors' knowledge, there are no reports using the novel hybrid-[Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] materials for differentiating three types of DNA using cost-effective and rapid absorbance measurements. In addition, the label-free E. coli DNA biosensor exhibited a linear response in the range of 0 fM to 11.65 fM with a limit of detection of 2 fM. The effect of [Formula: see text]-probes on our sensors' working performance is also investigated. Our results will facilitate further research in pathogen detection applications, which have not been fully developed yet.

Abstract
The exposure of MoS2 nanosheets can cause cytotoxicity, which causes health risks and affects its medical applications. However, knowledge of the underlying molecular mechanisms remains limited. This study reports that MoS2 nanosheets induces ferroptosis in vivo and in vitro, which is caused by the nanosheet themselves rather than by the dissolved ions. MoS2 nanosheets induce ferroptosis in epithelial (BEAS-2B) and macrophage (RAW264.7) cells due to nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4)-dependent excusive ferritinophagy and the inhibition of ferroportin-1 (FPN). In this process, most of the MoS2 nanosheets enter the cells via macropinocytosis and are localized to the lysosome, contributing to an increase in the lysosomal membrane permeability. At the same time, NCOA4-dependent ferritinophagy is activated, and ferritin is degraded in the lysosome, which generates Fe2+ .Fe2+ leaks into the cytoplasm, leading to ferroptosis. Furthermore, the inhibition of FPN further aggravates the overload of Fe2+ in the cell. It has also been observed that ferroptosis is increased in lung tissue in mouse models exposed to MoS2 nanosheets. This work highlights a novel mechanism by which MoS2 nanosheets induce ferroptosis by promoting NCOA4-dependent ferritinophagy and inhibiting FPN, which could be of importance to elucidate the toxicity and identify the medical applications of 2D nanoparticles.

Abstract
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-caused COVID-19 pandemic has rapidly escalated into the largest global health emergency, which pushes to develop detection kits for the detection of COVID-19 with high sensitivity, specificity, and fast analysis. Here, aptamer-functionalized MXene nanosheet is demonstrated as a novel bionanosensor that detects COVID-19. Upon binding to the spike receptor binding domain of SARS-CoV-2, the aptamer probe is released from MXene surface restoring the quenched fluorescence. The performances of the fluorosensor are evaluated using antigen protein, cultured virus, and swab specimens from COVID-19 patients. It is evidenced that this sensor can detect SARS-CoV-2 spike protein at final concentration of 38.9 fg mL-1 and SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus (limit of detection: 7.2 copies) within 30 min. Its application for clinical samples analysis is also demonstrated successfully. This work offers an effective sensing platform for sensitive and rapid detection of COVID-19 with high specificity.

Abstract
As traditional methods for detection of heavy metal pollution in water involve complex procedures and require expensive equipment, there is a great deal of interest in the development of rapid and simple methods for determining heavy metal ions in water. Here, a nanobiosensor based on molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) nanosheets and fluorophore (FAM) labeled oligonucleotides was proposed, and fluorescence spectroscopy was adopted for detection of Hg2+ or Ag+ ions in aqueous solution. The principle underlying detection by the sensor involves the formation of T-Hg2+-T or C-Ag+-C mismatches by single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) rich in thymine (T) or cytosine (C), thereby forming stable double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) structures. By exploiting the different adsorption capacity of MoS2 nanosheets for ssDNA and dsDNA, when oligonucleotides were in a single chain state, MoS2 nanosheets possessed a strong adsorption capacity for ssDNA, resulting in fluorescence quenching of FAM. After the addition of Hg2+ or Ag+, ssDNA formed double chains structure, the fluorescence recovered due to the weak adsorption capacity of MoS2 nanosheets for dsDNA. Along this line, an "off-on" mode fluorescence nanobiosensor was designed to alternatively detect these two heavy metal ions in water. The sensor showed high sensitivity and excellent selectivity for both Hg2+ and Ag+ ions, with minimum detection limits of 6.8 nM and 8.9 nM, respectively.

Abstract
We present a simple approach for producing photoluminescent MoS2 quantum dots (QDs) using commercial MoS2 powder as a precursor along with NaOH and isopropanol. The synthesis method is particularly easy and environmentally friendly. The successful intercalation of Na+ ions into MoS2 layers and subsequent oxidative cutting reaction leads to the formation of luminescent MoS2 QDs. The present work, for the first time, shows the formation of MoS2 QDs without any additional energy source. The as-synthesized MoS2 QDs were characterized using microscopy and spectroscopy. The QDs have a few layer thicknesses and a narrow size distribution with an average diameter of ∼3.8 nm. Nitrobenzene (NB), an industrial chemical, is both toxic to human health and dangerously explosive. The present MoS2 QDs can be used as an effective photoluminescent probe, and a new turn-off sensor for NB detection. The selective quenching was operated via multiple mechanisms; electron transfer between the nitro group and MoS2 QDs through dynamic quenching and the primary inner filter effect (IFE). The quenching has a linear relationship with NB concentrations from 0.5 μM to 11 μM, with a calculated detection limit of 50 nM.

Abstract
Thiol functionalization of two-dimensional (2D) metal sulfides has been demonstrated as an effective approach to enhance the sensing performances. However, most thiol functionalization is realized by multiple-step approaches in liquid medium and depends on the dispersity of 2D materials. Here, we utilize a three-dimensional (3D) In2S3 nano-porous structure that self-assembled from 2D components as the nanoreactor, in which the surface-absorbed thiol molecules from the chemical residues of the nanoreactor are used for the in-situ covalent functionalization. Such functionalization is realized by facile heat the nanoreactor at 100 °C, leading to the recombing sulfur vacancies with thiol-terminated groups. The NO2 sensing performances of such functionalized nanoreactor are investigated at room temperature, in which In2S3-100 exhibits a response magnitude of 21.5 towards 10 ppm NO2 with full reversibility, high selectivity, and excellent repeatability. Such high-performance gas sensors can be attributed to the additional electrons that transferring from the functional group into the host, thus significantly modifying the electronic band structure. This work provides a guideline for the facile in-situ functionalization of metal sulfides and an efficient strategy for the high performances gas sensors without external stimulus.

Abstract
Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a thermally stable n-type semiconducting material. ZnO 2D nanosheets have mainly gained substantial attention due to their unique properties, such as direct bandgap and strong excitonic binding energy at room temperature. These are widely utilized in piezotronics, energy storage, photodetectors, light-emitting diodes, solar cells, gas sensors, and photocatalysis. Notably, the chemical properties and performances of ZnO nanosheets largely depend on the nano-structuring that can be regulated and controlled through modulating synthetic strategies. Two synthetic approaches, top-down and bottom-up, are mainly employed for preparing ZnO 2D nanomaterials. However, owing to better results in producing defect-free nanostructures, homogenous chemical composition, etc., the bottom-up approach is extensively used compared to the top-down method for preparing ZnO 2D nanosheets. This review presents a comprehensive study on designing and developing 2D ZnO nanomaterials, followed by accenting its potential applications. To begin with, various synthetic strategies and attributes of ZnO 2D nanosheets are discussed, followed by focusing on methodologies and reaction mechanisms. Then, their deliberation toward batteries, supercapacitors, electronics/optoelectronics, photocatalysis, sensing, and piezoelectronic platforms are further discussed. Finally, the challenges and future opportunities are featured based on its current development.

A dual “turn-on” biosensor based on AIE effect and FRET for in situ detection of miR-125b biomarker in early Alzheimer's disease. Biosens Bioelectron 2023; 230:115270. [PMID: 37023551 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115270] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2023] [Revised: 03/22/2023] [Accepted: 03/26/2023] [Indexed: 04/03/2023]
Abstract
MicroRNA-125b (miR-125b) is highly associated with synaptic dysfunction and tau hyperphosphorylation in the early pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD), making it a promising biomarker for early AD diagnosis. Hence, there is an urgent need for a reliable sensing platform to assist in situ miR-125b detection. In this work, we report a dual "turn-on" fluorescence biosensor based on the nanocomposite of aggregation-induced emission fluorogen (AIEgen)-labeled oligonucleotide (TPET-DNA) probes immobilized on the surface of cationic dextran modified molybdenum disulfide (TPET-DNA@Dex-MoS2). In the presence of the target, TEPT-DNA can hybridize with miR-125b to form a DNA/RNA duplex, causing TPET-DNA to detach from the surface of Dex-MoS2 that simultaneously activates the dual fluorescence enhancement processes: (1) recovery of TPET-DNA signal and (2) strong fluorescent emission from AIEgen triggered by restriction of the intramolecular rotation. The sensing performance of TPET-DNA@Dex-MoS2 was demonstrated by detecting miR-125b in vitro with good sensitivity at the picomolar level and rapid response (≤1 h) without amplification procedures. Furthermore, our nanoprobes exhibited excellent imaging capabilities to aid real-time monitoring of the endogenous miR-125b in PC12 cells and brain tissues of mice AD model induced by local administration of okadaic acid (OA). The fluorescence signals of the nanoprobes indicated miR-125b was spatially associated with phosphorylated tau protein (p-tau) in vitro and in vivo. Therefore, TPET-DNA@Dex-MoS2 could be a promising tool for in situ and real-time monitoring of the AD-related microRNAs and also provide mechanistic insight into the early prognosis of AD.

Abstract
There has been an exponential surge in reports on two-dimensional (2D) materials ever since the discovery of graphene in 2004. Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are a class of 2D materials where weak van der Waals force binds individual covalently bonded X-M-X layers (where M is the transition metal and X is the chalcogen), making layer-controlled synthesis possible. These individual building blocks (single-layer TMDs) transition from indirect to direct band gaps and have fascinating optical and electronic properties. Layer-dependent opto-electrical properties, along with the existence of finite band gaps, make single-layer TMDs superior to the well-known graphene that paves the way for their applications in many areas. Ultra-fast response, high on/off ratio, planar structure, low operational voltage, wafer scale synthesis capabilities, high surface-to-volume ratio, and compatibility with standard fabrication processes makes TMDs ideal candidates to replace conventional semiconductors, such as silicon, etc., in the new-age electrical, electronic, and opto-electronic devices. Besides, TMDs can be potentially utilized in single molecular sensing for early detection of different biomarkers, gas sensors, photodetector, and catalytic applications. The impact of COVID-19 has given rise to an upsurge in demand for biosensors with real-time detection capabilities. TMDs as active or supporting biosensing elements exhibit potential for real-time detection of single biomarkers and, hence, show promise in the development of point-of-care healthcare devices. In this review, we provide a historical survey of 2D TMD-based biosensors for the detection of bio analytes ranging from bacteria, viruses, and whole cells to molecular biomarkers via optical, electronic, and electrochemical sensing mechanisms. Current approaches and the latest developments in the study of healthcare devices using 2D TMDs are discussed. Additionally, this review presents an overview of the challenges in the area and discusses the future perspective of 2D TMDs in the field of biosensing for healthcare devices.

Anal Bioanal Chem 2023; 415:703-713. [PMID: 36469053 PMCID: PMC9734815 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-022-04461-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2022] [Revised: 11/18/2022] [Accepted: 11/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is an evolving infectious entity that causes viral hepatitis infections worldwide. Current routine methods of identifying and diagnosing HEV are someway laborious and costly. Based on the biomimicking oxidase-like activity of MnO2 nanosheets, we designed a label-free, highly sensitive colorimetric sensing technique for HEV detection. The prepared MnO2 catalyst displays intrinsic biomimicking oxidase-like catalytic activity and efficiently oxidizes the 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) substrate from colorless to blue colored oxidized TMB (oxTMB) product which can be measured at 652 nm by UV-visible spectrum. When the HEV-DNA was added, DNA adsorbed easily on MnO2 surface through physical adsorption and electrostatic interaction which hinders the oxidase-like catalytic activity of MnO2. Upon the introduction of target, the HEV target DNA binds with its complementary ssDNA on the surface of MnO2, the hybridized DNA releases from the surface of MnO2, which leads to recovery of oxidase-like catalytic activity of MnO2. This strategy was applied to construct a colorimetric technique for HEV detection. The approach works in the linear range of 1 fM-100 nM DNA concentration with the limit of detection (LOD) of 3.26 fM (S/N = 3) and quantitative limit (LOQ) of 36.08 fM. The TMB-MnO2 platform was highly selective for HEV target DNA detection when compared with potential interferences. Result of serum sample analysis demonstrates that this sensing system can be used for clinical diagnostic applications.

Abstract
Recognizing multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria with high accuracy and precision from clinical samples has long been a difficulty. For reliable detection of MDR bacteria, we investigated a programmable molecular circuit called the Background-free isothermal circuital kit (BRICK). The BRICK method provides a near-zero background signal by integrating four inherent modules equivalent to the conversion, amplification, separation, and reading modules. Interference elimination is largely owing to a molybdenum disulfide nanosheets-based fluorescence nanoswitch and non-specific suppression mediated by molecular inhibitors. In less than 70 min, an accurate distinction of various MDR bacteria was achieved without bacterial lysis. The BRICK technique detected 6.73 CFU/mL of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in clinical samples in a proof-of-concept trial. By simply reprogramming the sequence panel, such a high signal-to-noise characteristic has been proven in the four other superbugs. The proposed BRICK method can provide a universal platform for infection surveillance and environmental management thanks to its superior programmability.

Abstract
The recent COVID-19 infection outbreak has raised the demand for rapid, highly sensitive POC biosensing technology for intelligent health and wellness. In this direction, efforts are being made to explore high-performance nano-systems for developing novel sensing technologies capable of functioning at point-of-care (POC) applications for quick diagnosis, data acquisition, and disease management. A combination of nanostructures [i.e., 0D (nanoparticles & quantum dots), 1D (nanorods, nanofibers, nanopillars, & nanowires), 2D (nanosheets, nanoplates, nanopores) & 3D nanomaterials (nanocomposites and complex hierarchical structures)], biosensing prototype, and micro-electronics makes biosensing suitable for early diagnosis, detection & prevention of life-threatening diseases. However, a knowledge gap associated with the potential of 0D, 1D, 2D, and 3D nanostructures for the design and development of efficient POC sensing is yet to be explored carefully and critically. With this focus, this review highlights the latest engineered 0D, 1D, 2D, and 3D nanomaterials for developing next-generation miniaturized, portable POC biosensors development to achieve high sensitivity with potential integration with the internet of medical things (IoMT, for miniaturization and data collection, security, and sharing), artificial intelligence (AI, for desired analytics), etc. for better diagnosis and disease management at the personalized level.

Abstract
Recently, there has been increasing interest in electrochemical printed sensors for a wide range of applications such as biomedical, pharmaceutical, food safety, and environmental fields. A major challenge is to obtain selective, sensitive, and reliable sensing platforms that can meet the stringent performance requirements of these application areas. Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials advances have accelerated the performance of electrochemical sensors towards more practical approaches. This review discusses the recent development of electrochemical printed sensors, with emphasis on the integration of non-carbon 2D materials as sensing platforms. A brief introduction to printed electrochemical sensors and electrochemical technique analysis are presented in the first section of this review. Subsequently, sensor surface functionalization and modification techniques including drop-casting, electrodeposition, and printing of functional ink are discussed. In the next section, we review recent insights into novel fabrication methodologies, electrochemical techniques, and sensors' performances of the most used transition metal dichalcogenides materials (such as MoS2, MoSe2, and WS2), MXenes, and hexagonal boron-nitride (hBN). Finally, the challenges that are faced by electrochemical printed sensors are highlighted in the conclusion. This review is not only useful to provide insights for researchers that are currently working in the related area, but also instructive to the ones new to this field.

Abstract
The small non-coding RNA, microRNA-21 (miR-21), is dysregulated in various cancers and can be considered an appropriate target for therapeutic approaches. Therefore, the detection of miR-21 concentration is important in the diagnosis of diseases. Low specificity and the cost of materials are two necessary limitations in the traditional diagnosis method such as RT-PCR, northern blotting and microarray analysis. Biosensor technology can play an effective role in improving the quality of human life due to its capacity of rapid diagnosis, monitoring different markers, suitable sensitivity, and specificity. Moreover, bioanalytical systems have an essential role in the detection of biomolecules or miRNAs due to their critical features, including easy usage, portability, low cost and real-time analysis. Electrochemical biosensors based on novel nanomaterials and oligonucleotides can hybridize with miR-21 in different ranges. Moreover, optical biosensors and piezoelectric devices have been developed for miR-21 detection. In this study, we have evaluated different materials used in bioanalytical systems for miR-21 detection as well as various nanomaterials that offer improved electrodes for its detection.
