Abstract
G-quadruplex/thioflavin T (G4/THT) is one of the ideal label-free fluorescent light-emitting elements in the field of biosensors due to its good programmability and adaptability. However, the unsatisfactory luminous efficiency of single-molecule G4/THT limits its more practical applications. Here, we developed a G4 embedded semi-catalytic hairpin assembly (G4-SCHA) reaction by rationally modifying the traditional CHA reaction, and combined with the invasive reaction, supplemented by magnetic separation technology, for label-free sensitive detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The invasive reaction enabled specific recognition of single-base mutations in DNA sequences as well as preliminary signal cycle amplification. Then, magnetic separation was used to shield the false positive signals. Finally, the G4-SCHA was created for secondary amplification and label-free output of the signal. This dual-signal amplified label-free biosensor has been shown to detect mutant targets as low as 78.54 fM. What's more, this biosensor could distinguish 0.01 % of the mutant targets from a mixed sample containing a large number of wild-type targets. In addition, the detection of real and complex biological samples also verified the practical application value of this biosensor in the field of molecular design breeding. Therefore, this study improves a label-free fluorescent light-emitting element, and then proposes a simple, efficient and universal label-free SNP biosensing strategy, which also provides an important reference for the development of other G4/THT based biosensors.

Abstract
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is the gold standard for nucleic acid amplification and quantification in diverse fields such as life sciences, global health, medicine, agricultural science, forensic science, and environmental science for global sustainability. However, implementing a cost-effective PCR remains challenging for rapid preventive medical action to the widespread pandemic diseases due to the absence of highly efficient and low-cost PCR chip-based POC molecular diagnostics. Here, this work reports an ultrafast metaphotonic PCR chip as a solution of a cost-effective and low-power-consumption POC device for the emerging global challenge of sustainable healthcare. This work designs a near-perfect photonic meta-absorber using ring-shaped titanium nitride to maximize the photothermal effect and realize rapid heating and cooling cycles during the PCR process. This work fabricates a large-area photonic meta-absorber on a 6-inch wafer cost-effectively using simple colloidal lithography. In addition, this work demonstrates 30 thermocycles from 65 (annealing temperature) to 95 °C (denaturation temperature) within 3 min 15 s, achieving an average 16.66 °C s-1 heating rate and 7.77 °C s-1 cooling rate during thermocycling, succeeding rapid metaphotonic PCR. This work believes a metaphotonic PCR chip can be used to create a low-cost, ultrafast molecular diagnostic chip with a meta-absorber.

Abstract
Single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) is widely used in the study of disease-related genes and in the genetic study of animal and plant strains. Therefore, SNP detection is crucial for biomedical diagnosis and treatment as well as for molecular design breeding of animals and plants. In this regard, this article describes a novel technique for detecting SNP using flap endonuclease 1 (FEN 1) as a specific recognition element and catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) cascade reaction as a signal amplification strategy. The mutant target (MT) was hybridized with a biotin-modified upstream probe and hairpin-type downstream probe (DP) to form a specific three-base overlapping structure. Then, FEN 1 was employed for three-base overlapping structure-specific recognition, namely, the precise SNP site identification and the 5' flap of DP dissociation. After dissociation, the hybridized probes were magnetically separated by a streptavidin-biotin complex. Especially, the ability to establish such a hairpin-type DP provided a powerful tool that could be used to hide the cut sequence (CS) and avoid false-positive signals. The cleaved CS initiated the CHA reaction and allowed superior fluorescence signal generation. Owing to the high specificity of FEN 1 for single base recognition, only the MT could be distinguished from the wild-type target and mismatched DNA. Owing to the dual signal amplification, as low as 0.36 fM MT and 1% mutation abundance from the mixtures could be detected, respectively. Furthermore, it could accurately identify SNPs from human cancer cells, as well as soybean leaf genome extracts. This strategy paves the way for the development of more precise and sensitive tools for diagnosing early onset diseases as well as molecular design breeding tools.

Double base mismatches mediated catalytic hairpin assembly for enzyme-free single-base mutation detection: integrating signal recognition and amplification in one. Mikrochim Acta 2024; 191:334.

Abstract
Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) biosensors are emerging rapidly for their promising applications in human disease prevention diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. However, it remains a bottleneck in equipping simple and stable biosensors with the traits of high sensitivity, non-enzyme, and low cost. Double base mismatches mediated chain displacement reactions have attracted fascinating advantages of tailorable thermodynamics stability, non-enzyme, and excellent assembly compliance to involvement in SNP identification. As the base mismatch position and amount in DNA sequence can be artificially adjusted, it provides plenty of selectivity and specificity for exploring perfect biosensors. Herein, a biosensor with double base mismatches mediated catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) is designed via one base mismatch in the toehold domain and the other base mismatch in the stem sequence of hairpin 1 (H1) by triggering CHA reaction to achieve selective amplification of the mutation target (MT) and fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) effect that is composed of Cy3 and Cy5 terminally attached H1 and hairpin 2 (H2). Depending on the rationally designed base mismatch position and toehold length, the fabricated biosensors show superior SNP detection performance, exhibiting a good linearity with high sensitivity of 6.6 fM detection limit and a broad detection abundance of 1%. The proposed biosensor can be used to detect the KRAS mutation gene in real samples and obtain good recoveries between 106 and 116.99%. Remarkably, these extendible designs of base mismatches can be used for more types of SNP detection, providing flexible adjustment based on base mismatch position and toehold length variations, especially for their thermodynamic model for DNA-strand displacement reactions.

Abstract
Foodborne illnesses can be infectious and dangerous, and most of them are caused by bacteria. Some common food-related bacteria species exist widely in nature and pose a serious threat to both humans and animals; they can cause poisoning, diseases, disabilities and even death. Rapid, reliable and cost-effective methods for bacterial detection are of paramount importance in food safety and environmental monitoring. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR), lateral flow immunochromatographic assay (LFIA) and electrochemical methods have been widely used in food safety and environmental monitoring. In this paper, the recent developments (2013-2023) covering PCR, LFIA and electrochemical methods for various bacterial species (Salmonella, Listeria, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli)), considering different food sample types, analytical performances and the reported limit of detection (LOD), are discussed. It was found that the bacteria species and food sample type contributed significantly to the analytical performance and LOD. Detection via LFIA has a higher average LOD (24 CFU/mL) than detection via electrochemical methods (12 CFU/mL) and PCR (6 CFU/mL). Salmonella and E. coli in the Pseudomonadota domain usually have low LODs. LODs are usually lower for detection in fish and eggs. Gold and iron nanoparticles were the most studied in the reported articles for LFIA, and average LODs were 26 CFU/mL and 12 CFU/mL, respectively. The electrochemical method revealed that the average LOD was highest for cyclic voltammetry (CV) at 18 CFU/mL, followed by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) at 12 CFU/mL and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) at 8 CFU/mL. LOD usually decreases when the sample number increases until it remains unchanged. Exponential relations (R2 > 0.95) between LODs of Listeria in milk via LFIA and via the electrochemical method with sample numbers have been obtained. Finally, the review discusses challenges and future perspectives (including the role of nanomaterials/advanced materials) to improve analytical performance for bacterial detection.

Abstract
Bacterial infections have emerged as the leading causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Herein, we developed a dual-channel fluorescence "turn-on" sensor array, comprising six electrostatic complexes formed from one negatively charged poly(para-aryleneethynylene) (PPE) and six positively charged aggregation-induced emission (AIE) fluorophores. The 6-element array enabled the simultaneous identification of 20 bacteria (OD600=0.005) within 30s (99.0 % accuracy), demonstrating significant advantages over the array constituted by the 7 separate elements that constitute the complexes. Meanwhile, the array realized different mixing ratios and quantitative detection of prevalent bacteria associated with urinary tract infection (UTI). It also excelled in distinguishing six simulated bacteria samples in artificial urine. Remarkably, the limit of detection for E. coli and E. faecalis was notably low, at 0.000295 and 0.000329 (OD600), respectively. Finally, optimized by diverse machine learning algorithms, the designed array achieved 96.7 % accuracy in differentiating UTI clinical samples from healthy individuals using a random forest model, demonstrating the great potential for medical diagnostic applications.

Abstract
In situ profiling of single-nucleotide variations (SNVs) can elucidate drug-resistant genotypes with single-cell resolution. The capacity to directly "see" genetic information is crucial for investigating the relationship between mutated genes and phenotypes. Fluorescence in situ hybridization serves as a canonical tool for genetic imaging; however, it cannot detect subtle sequence alteration including SNVs. Herein, we develop an in situ Cas12a-based amplification refractory mutation system-PCR (ARMS-PCR) method that allows the visualization of SNVs related to quinolone resistance inside cells. The capacity of discriminating SNVs is enhanced by incorporating optimized mismatched bases in the allele-specific primers, thus allowing to specifically amplify quinolone-resistant related genes. After in situ ARMS-PCR, we employed a modified Cas12a/CRISPR RNA to tag the amplicon, thereby enabling specific binding of fluorophore-labeled DNA probes. The method allows to precisely quantify quinolone-resistant Salmonella enterica in the bacterial mixture. Utilizing this method, we investigated the survival competition capacity of quinolone-resistant and quinolone-sensitive bacteria toward antimicrobial peptides and indicated the enrichment of quinolone-resistant bacteria under colistin sulfate stress. The in situ Cas12a-based ARMS-PCR method holds the potential for profiling cellular phenotypes and gene regulation with single-nucleotide resolution at the single-cell level.

Abstract
Despite extensive efforts, point-of-care testing (POCT) of protein markers with high sensitivity and specificity and at a low cost remains challenging. In this work, we developed an aptamer-CRISPR/Cas12a-regulated liquid crystal sensor (ALICS), which achieved ultrasensitive protein detection using a smartphone-coupled portable device. Specifically, a DNA probe that contained an aptamer sequence for the protein target and an activation sequence for the Cas12a-crRNA complex was prefixed on a substrate and was released in the presence of target. The activation sequence of the DNA probe then bound to the Cas12a-crRNA complex to activate the collateral cleavage reaction, producing a bright-to-dark optical change in a DNA-functionalized liquid crystal interface. The optical image was captured by a smartphone for quantification of the target concentration. For the two model proteins, SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein (N protein) and carcino-embryonic antigen (CEA), ALICS achieved detection limits of 0.4 and 20 pg/mL, respectively, which are higher than the typical sensitivity of the SARS-CoV-2 test and the clinical CEA test. In the clinical sample tests, ALICS also exhibited superior performances compared to those of the commercial ELISA and lateral flow test kits. Overall, ALICS represents an ultrasensitive and cost-effective platform for POCT, showing a great potential for pathogen detection and disease monitoring under resource-limited conditions.

Rationally Designed Dual Base Pair Mismatch Enables Toehold-Mediated Strand Displacement to Efficiently Recognize Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism without Enzymes. Anal Chem 2024; 96:554-563.

Abstract
The efficiency of the enzyme-free toehold-mediated strand displacement (TMSD) technique is often insufficient to detect single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) that possesses only single base pair mismatch discrimination. Here, we report a novel dual base pair mismatch strategy enabling TMSD biosensing for SNP detection under enzyme-free conditions when coupled with catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) and fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). The strategy is based on a competitive strand displacement reaction mechanism, affected by the thermodynamic stability originating from rationally designed dual base pair mismatch, for the specific recognition of mutant-type DNA. In particular, enzyme-free nucleic acid circuits, such as CHA, emerge as a powerful method for signal amplification. Eventually, the signal transduction of this proposed biosensor was determined by FRET between streptavidin-coated 605 nm emission quantum dots (605QDs, donor) and Cy5/biotin hybridization (acceptor, from CHA) when incubated with each other. The proposed biosensor displayed high sensitivity to the mutant target (MT) with a detection concentration down to 4.3 fM and led to high discrimination factors for all types of mismatches in multiple sequence contexts. As such, the application of this proposed biosensor to investigate mechanisms of the competitive strand displacement reaction further illustrates the versatility of our dual base pair mismatch strategy, which can be utilized for the creation of a new class of biosensors.

Abstract
The COVID-19 outbreak has caused public and global health crises. However, the lack of on-site fast, reliable, sensitive, and low-cost reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) testing limits early detection, timely isolation, and epidemic prevention and control. Here, the authors report a rapid mobile efficient diagnostics of infectious diseases via on-chip -RT-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR): MEDIC-PCR. First, the authors use a roll-to-roll printing process to accomplish low-cost carbon-black-based disposable PCR chips that enable rapid LED-induced photothermal PCR cycles. The MEDIC-PCR can perform RT (3 min), and PCR (9 min) steps. Further, the cohort of 89 COVID-19 and 103 non-COVID-19 patients testing is completed by the MEDIC-PCR to show excellent diagnostic accuracy of 97%, sensitivity of 94%, and specificity of 98%. This MEDIC-PCR can contribute to the preventive global health in the face of a future pandemic.

Abstract
Hemorrhagic fever viruses (HFVs) are virulent pathogens that can cause severe and often fatal illnesses in humans. Timely and accurate detection of HFVs is critical for effective disease management and prevention. In recent years, micro- and nano-technologies have emerged as promising approaches for the detection of HFVs. This paper provides an overview of the current state-of-the-art systems for micro- and nano-scale approaches to detect HFVs. It covers various aspects of these technologies, including the principles behind their sensing assays, as well as the different types of diagnostic strategies that have been developed. This paper also explores future possibilities of employing micro- and nano-systems for the development of HFV diagnostic tools that meet the practical demands of clinical settings.

Abstract
Detection of RNA targets is typically achieved through RT-qPCR or RNAseq. RT-qPCR is rapid but limited in number and complexity of targets detected, while RNAseq is high-throughput but takes multiple days. We demonstrate simultaneous amplification and detection of 28 distinct RNA targets from a single unsplit purified RNA sample in under 40 minutes using our convective array PCR (caPCR) technology. We integrate tunable strand displacement probes into caPCR to allow detection of RNA species with programmable sequence selectivity for either a single, perfectly matched target sequence or for targets with up to 2 single-nucleotide variants within the probe-binding regions. Tunable probes allow for robust detection of desired RNA species against high homology background sequences and robust detection of RNA species with significant sequence diversity due to community-acquired mutations. As a proof-of-concept, we experimentally demonstrated detection of 7 human coronaviruses and 7 key variants of concern of SARS-CoV-2 in a single assay.

Abstract
Assays for the molecular detection of miRNAs are typically constrained by the level of multiplexing, especially in a single tube. Here, we report a general and programmable diagnostic platform by combining mesophilic Clostridium perfringens Argonaute (CpAgo) with exponential isothermal amplification (EXPAR), which is a dual-signal amplification strategy, allowing for the rapid and sensitive detection of multiple miRNAs with single-nucleotide discrimination in one pot. The CpAgo-based One-Pot (COP) assay achieved a limit of detection of 1 zM miRNA within 30 min of turnaround time and a wide concentration range. This COP assay was applied to simultaneously detect four miRNAs in a single tube from clinical serum samples, showing superior analytical performance in distinguishing colorectal cancer patients from healthy individuals. This programmable, one-pot, multiplex, rapid, and specific strategy offers great promise in scientific research and clinical applications.

Abstract
It is critical that breweries of all sizes routinely monitor the microbiome of their process to limit financial losses due to microbial contamination. Contamination by beer-spoiling microbes (BSMs) at any point during the brewing process may lead to significant losses for breweries if gone undetected and allowed to spread. Testing and detection of BSMs must be routine and rapid, and because even small breweries need the capability of BSM detection and identification, the method also needs to be affordable. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are responsible for most spoilage incidents, many of which have been shown to enter the viable but nonculturable (VBNC) state under conditions present in beer such as cold or oxidative stress. These bacteria are invisible to traditional methods of detection using selective media. This article describes several methods of BSM detection and identification that may be useful in the majority of craft breweries. While there are several genomic methods that meet some or many qualifications of being useful in craft breweries, real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) currently best meets the desired method characteristics and holds the most utility in this industry, specifically SYBR Green qPCR. qPCR is a targeted method of detection and identification of microbes that is affordable, rapid, specific, sensitive, quantitative, and reliable, and when paired with valid DNA extraction techniques can be used to detect BSMs, including those in the VBNC state.

Abstract
Molecular diagnostics for crop diseases can guide the precise application of pesticides, thereby reducing pesticide usage while improving crop yield, but tools are lacking. Here, we report an in-field molecular diagnostic tool that uses a cheap colorimetric paper and a smartphone, allowing multiplexed, low-cost, rapid detection of crop pathogens. Rapid nucleic acid amplification-free detection of pathogenic RNA is achieved by combining toehold-mediated strand displacement with a metal ion-mediated urease catalysis reaction. We demonstrate multiplexed detection of six wheat pathogenic fungi and an early detection of wheat stripe rust. When coupled with a microneedle for rapid nucleic acid extraction and a smartphone app for results analysis, the sample-to-result test can be completed in ~10 min in the field. Importantly, by detecting fungal RNA and mutations, the approach allows to distinguish viable and dead pathogens and to sensitively identify mutation-carrying fungicide-resistant isolates, providing fundamental information for precision crop disease management.

Abstract
Current technologies to subtype glioblastoma (GBM), the most lethal brain tumor, require highly invasive brain biopsies. Here, we develop a dedicated analytical platform to achieve direct and multiplexed profiling of circulating RNAs in extracellular vesicles for blood-based GBM characterization. The technology, termed 'enzyme ZIF-8 complexes for regenerative and catalytic digital detection of RNA' (EZ-READ), leverages an RNA-responsive transducer to regeneratively convert and catalytically enhance signals from rare RNA targets. Each transducer comprises hybrid complexes - protein enzymes encapsulated within metal organic frameworks - to configure strong catalytic activity and robust protection. Upon target RNA hybridization, the transducer activates directly to liberate catalytic complexes, in a target-recyclable manner; when partitioned within a microfluidic device, these complexes can individually catalyze strong chemifluorescence reactions for digital RNA quantification. The EZ-READ platform thus enables programmable and reliable RNA detection, across different-sized RNA subtypes (miRNA and mRNA), directly in sample lysates. When clinically evaluated, the EZ-READ platform established composite signatures for accurate blood-based GBM diagnosis and subtyping.

[PMID: 37504131 PMCID: PMC10377012 DOI: 10.3390/bios13070732] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2023] [Revised: 07/05/2023] [Accepted: 07/12/2023] [Indexed: 07/29/2023]
Abstract
Pathogenic pathogens invade the human body through various pathways, causing damage to host cells, tissues, and their functions, ultimately leading to the development of diseases and posing a threat to human health. The rapid and accurate detection of pathogenic pathogens in humans is crucial and pressing. Nucleic acid detection offers advantages such as higher sensitivity, accuracy, and specificity compared to antibody and antigen detection methods. However, conventional nucleic acid testing is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and requires sophisticated equipment and specialized medical personnel. Therefore, this review focuses on advanced nucleic acid testing systems that aim to address the issues of testing time, portability, degree of automation, and cross-contamination. These systems include extraction-free rapid nucleic acid testing, fully automated extraction, amplification, and detection, as well as fully enclosed testing and commercial nucleic acid testing equipment. Additionally, the biochemical methods used for extraction, amplification, and detection in nucleic acid testing are briefly described. We hope that this review will inspire further research and the development of more suitable extraction-free reagents and fully automated testing devices for rapid, point-of-care diagnostics.

Abstract
Pathogen screening is an important step in preventing foodborne diseases. In this study, a hybrid nanozyme, metal organic framework decorated with palladium (Pd) and platinum (Pt) (MIL-88@Pd/Pt), was innovatively synthesized and used with immune magnetic nanobeads (MNBs) for sensitive biosensing of Salmonella. First, immune MIL-88@Pd/Pt nanozymes and immune MNBs were mixed with target pathogens in a large-volume sample, resulting in effective isolation and specific label of target pathogens to form nanobead-Salmonella-nanozyme conjugates. Then, these conjugates were used to catalyze H2O2-TMB, and its color was changed from colorless to blue. Finally, catalysate absorption was measured to determine pathogen concentration. This colorimetric immunoassay could determine Salmonella typhimurium from 4 × 101 to 4 × 105 CFU/mL in 60 min with a detection limit of 32 CFU/mL.

Abstract
Breakthroughs within the fields of genomics and bioinformatics have enabled the identification of numerous genetic biomarkers that reflect an individual's disease susceptibility, disease progression, and therapy responsiveness. The personalized medicine paradigm capitalizes on these breakthroughs by utilizing an individual's genetic profile to guide treatment selection, dosing, and preventative care. However, integration of personalized medicine into routine clinical practice has been limited-in part-by a dearth of widely deployable, timely, and cost-effective genetic analysis tools. Fortunately, the last several decades have been characterized by tremendous progress with respect to the development of molecular point-of-care tests (POCTs). Advances in microfluidic technologies, accompanied by improvements and innovations in amplification methods, have opened new doors to health monitoring at the point-of-care. While many of these technologies were developed with rapid infectious disease diagnostics in mind, they are well-suited for deployment as genetic testing platforms for personalized medicine applications. In the coming years, we expect that these innovations in molecular POCT technology will play a critical role in enabling widespread adoption of personalized medicine methods. In this work, we review the current and emerging generations of point-of-care molecular testing platforms and assess their applicability toward accelerating the personalized medicine paradigm.

Abstract
DNA nanosheets (DNSs) have been utilized effectively as a fluorescence anisotropy (FA) amplifier for biosensing. But, their sensitivity needs to be further improved. Herein, CRISPR-Cas12a with strong trans-cleavage activity was utilized to enhance the FA amplification ability of DNSs for the sensitive detection of miRNA-155 (miR-155) as a proof-of-principle target. In this method, the hybrid of the recognition probe of miR-155 (T1) and a blocker sequence (T2) was immobilized on the surface of magnetic beads (MBs). In the presence of miR-155, T2 was released by a strand displacement reaction, which activated the trans-cleavage activity of CRISPR-Cas12a. The single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) probe modified with a carboxytetramethylrhodamine (TAMRA) fluorophore was cleaved in large quantities and could not bind to the handle chain on DNSs, inducing a low FA value. In contrast, in the absence of miR-155, T2 could not be released and the trans-cleavage activity of CRISPR-Cas12a could not be activated. The TAMRA-modified ssDNA probe remained intact and was complementary to the handle chain on the DNSs, and a high FA value was obtained. Thus, miR-155 was detected through the obviously decreased FA value with a low limit of detection (LOD) of 40 pM. Impressively, the sensitivity of this method was greatly improved about 322 times by CRISPR-Cas12a, confirming the amazing signal amplification ability of CRISPR-Cas12a. At the same time, the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein was detected by the strategy successfully, indicating that this method was general. Moreover, this method has been applied in the analysis of miR-155 in human serum and the lysates of cells, which provides a new avenue for the sensitive determination of biomarkers in biochemical research and disease diagnosis.

Abstract
Current biosensing detection assays were developed to focus on rapid, low-cost, stable detection for clinical diagnosis and food safety monitoring. In this work, a novel portable cartridge voltage-sensitive micropump immunosensor (CVMS) biosensing device based on the integration of the microchannel circuit biosensing principle and polydopamine (PDA) was presented for rapid and sensitive detection of pathogenic factors in real samples at trace levels. The CVMS can sensitively evaluate voltage signal changes caused by clogging effects in the closed-loop circuit when the insulated microspheres pass through the microchannel. The targets could trigger the immune reaction between antibody-antigens that leads to the change in the concentration of horseradish peroxidase (HRP). And the HRP was further employed to catalyze the polymerization of dopamine into PDA, resulting in the rapid formation of the magnetic @PDA nanoparticles (MNP@PDA) with core-shell structures. The abundant functional groups on the MNP@PDA surface can efficiently adsorb polystyrene microspheres, thus causing changes in the number of polystyrene microspheres (PS). The CVMS can accurately monitor the change of PS with a portable device, which weighs less than 0.8 kg and costs only $50. The completion of CVMS takes 90 min to complete. The limit of detection of this immunosensor for procalcitonin and ochratoxin A were 42 pg/mL and 77 pg/mL, respectively, which improved about 15 folds and 38 folds, respectively, than those of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

Abstract
Diverse (sub)cellular materials are secreted by cells into the systemic circulation at different stages of disease progression. These circulating biomarkers include whole cells, such as circulating tumour cells, subcellular extracellular vesicles and cell-free factors such as DNA, RNA and proteins. The biophysical and biomolecular state of circulating biomarkers carry a rich repertoire of molecular information that can be captured in the form of liquid biopsies for disease detection and monitoring. In this Review, we discuss miniaturized platforms that allow the minimally invasive and rapid detection and analysis of circulating biomarkers, accounting for their differences in size, concentration and molecular composition. We examine differently scaled materials and devices that can enrich, measure and analyse specific circulating biomarkers, outlining their distinct detection challenges. Finally, we highlight emerging opportunities in biomarker and device integration and provide key future milestones for their clinical translation.

Abstract
Active enrichment can detect nucleic acid at ultra-low concentrations without relatively time-consuming polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which is an important development direction for future rapid nucleic acid detection. Here, we reported an integrated active enrichment platform for direct hand-held detection of nucleic acid of COVID-19 in nanoliter samples without PCR. The platform consists of a capillary-assisted liquid-carrying system for sampling, integrated circuit system for ultrasound output, and cell-phone-based surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) system. Considering the acoustic responsiveness and SERS-enhanced performance, gold nanorods were selected for biomedical applications. Functionalized gold nanorods can effectively capture and enrich biomarkers under ultrasonic aggregation. Such approaches can actively assemble gold nanorods in 1-2 s and achieved highly sensitive (6.15 × 10-13 M) SERS detection of COVID-19 biomarkers in nanoliter (10-7 L) samples within 5 min. We further demonstrated the high stability, repeatability, and selectivity of the platform, and validated its potential for the detection of throat swab samples. This simple, portable, and ultra-trace integrated active enrichment detection platform is a promising diagnostic tool for the direct and rapid detection of COVID-19.

Abstract
As nucleic acid testing is playing a vital role in increasingly many research fields, the need for rapid on-site testing methods is also increasing. The test procedure often consists of three steps: Sample preparation, amplification, and detection. This review covers recent advances in on-chip methods for each of these three steps and explains the principles underlying related methods. The sample preparation process is further divided into cell lysis and nucleic acid purification, and methods for the integration of these two steps on a single chip are discussed. Under amplification, on-chip studies based on PCR and isothermal amplification are covered. Three isothermal amplification methods reported to have good resistance to PCR inhibitors are selected for discussion due to their potential for use in direct amplification. Chip designs and novel strategies employed to achieve rapid extraction/amplification with satisfactory efficiency are discussed. Four detection methods providing rapid responses (fluorescent, optical, and electrochemical detection methods, plus lateral flow assay) are evaluated for their potential in rapid on-site detection. In the final section, we discuss strategies to improve the speed of the entire procedure and to integrate all three steps onto a single chip; we also comment on recent advances, and on obstacles to reducing the cost of chip manufacture and achieving mass production. We conclude that future trends will focus on effective nucleic acid extraction via combined methods and direct amplification via isothermal methods.

Abstract
Most multiplex nucleic acids detection methods require numerous reagents and high-priced instruments. The emerging clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas has been regarded as a promising point-of-care (POC) strategy for nucleic acids detection. However, how to achieve CRISPR/Cas multiplex biosensing remains a challenge. Here, an affordable means termed CRISPR-RDB (CRISPR-based reverse dot blot) for multiplex target detection in parallel, which possesses the advantages of high sensitivity and specificity, cost-effectiveness, instrument-free, ease to use, and visualization is reported. CRISPR-RDB integrates the trans-cleavage activity of CRISPR-Cas12a with a commercial RDB technique. It utilizes different Cas12a-crRNA complexes to separately identify multiple targets in one sample and converts targeted information into colorimetric signals on a piece of accessible nylon membrane that attaches corresponding specific-oligonucleotide probes. It has demonstrated that the versatility of CRISPR-RDB by constructing a four-channel system to simultaneously detect influenza A, influenza B, respiratory syncytial virus, and SARS-CoV-2. With a simple modification of crRNAs, the CRISPR-RDB can be modified to detect human papillomavirus, saving two-thirds of the time compared to a commercial PCR-RDB kit. Further, a user-friendly microchip system for convenient use, as well as a smartphone app for signal interpretation, is engineered. CRISPR-RDB represents a desirable option for multiplexed biosensing and on-site diagnosis.

Rolling Circle Amplification Tailored for Plasmonic Biosensors: From Ensemble to Single-Molecule Detection. ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES 2022; 14:55017-55027. [PMID: 36446038 PMCID: PMC9756284 DOI: 10.1021/acsami.2c14500] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2022] [Accepted: 11/16/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
We report on the tailoring of rolling circle amplification (RCA) for affinity biosensors relying on the optical probing of their surface with confined surface plasmon field. Affinity capture of the target analyte at the metallic sensor surface (e.g., by using immunoassays) is followed by the RCA step for subsequent readout based on increased refractive index (surface plasmon resonance, SPR) or RCA-incorporated high number of fluorophores (in surface plasmon-enhanced fluorescence, PEF). By combining SPR and PEF methods, this work investigates the impact of the conformation of long RCA-generated single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) chains to the plasmonic sensor response enhancement. In order to confine the RCA reaction within the evanescent surface plasmon field and hence maximize the sensor response, an interface carrying analyte-capturing molecules and additional guiding ssDNA strands (complementary to the repeating segments of RCA-generated chains) is developed. When using the circular padlock probe as a model target analyte, the PEF readout shows that the reported RCA implementation improves the limit of detection (LOD) from 13 pM to high femtomolar concentration when compared to direct labeling. The respective enhancement factor is of about 2 orders of magnitude, which agrees with the maximum number of fluorophore emitters attached to the RCA chain that is folded in the evanescent surface plasmon field by the developed biointerface. Moreover, the RCA allows facile visualizing of individual binding events by fluorescence microscopy, which enables direct counting of captured molecules. This approach offers a versatile route toward a fast digital readout format of single-molecule detection with further reduced LOD.

Abstract
The emerging pandemic of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) critically challenges early and accurate virus diagnoses. However, the current gold standard for SARS-CoV-2 detection, reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), has reportedly failed to detect low-viral loads. One compound, graphene oxide (GO), which adsorbs single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), has been widely applied in molecular pathogen detection. This study presents a highly sensitive GO-multiplex qPCR method for simultaneous detection of two SARS-CoV-2 genes (RdRP and E) and one reference gene (RNase P). In a GO-multiplex qPCR system, GO pre-absorbs each forward primer to form specific GO-forward primer composites before entering the amplification system. Target gene amplification is confined within the primer-enriched composites, thus, improving the sensitivity of the assay. Compared to conventional multiplex qPCR, GO-multiplex qPCR reduces the limit of detection by 10-fold to 10 copies/reaction. Hence, the GO-multiplex qPCR assay can be effectively used for SARS-CoV-2 detection.

Abstract
When dealing with infectious pathogens, the point-of-care screening and diagnosis strategy should be low-cost, simple, rapid and accurate. Here, we report a multifunctional rapid PCR platform allowing both simultaneous screening of suspected cases and accurate identification and quantification of the virus. Based on the platform, samples suspected of being infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) are screened first, after which subsequent precise quantification of the virus (SARS-CoV-2) can be performed if necessary. This fast screening technique offers a detection limit of 10 nucleic acid copies per test during the entire running time of 15 minutes, with a throughput of 9 samples at a time. Besides, depending on a droplet microfluidic chip, this platform could also provide assays of nucleic acids across four orders of magnitude of concentration within less than 15 minutes. Additionally, we successfully use the platform to quickly distinguish between positive and negative cases in clinical samples and rapidly quantify the viral load in each sample, which is consistent with standard RT-qPCR tests. As such, we demonstrate a promising and versatile rapid PCR platform for point-of-care diagnosis of infectious diseases.

Fluorescence-based simultaneous dual oligo sensing of HCV genotypes 1 and 3 using magnetite nanoparticles. JOURNAL OF PHOTOCHEMISTRY AND PHOTOBIOLOGY. B, BIOLOGY 2022; 232:112463.

Abstract
Nucleic acid tests (NATs) have gained an important position in biosensing in the context of the increasing need to meet the stringent requirements for accurate diagnosis of infectious diseases with high sensitivity and selectivity. Recently, the development of new strategies towards multiplex detection of analytes in a single assay is gaining impetus since such an approach would lead to high throughput analysis, leading to substantial benefits in terms of time, infrastructure, labor, and cost. In this work, we demonstrate a facile fluorescence-based simultaneous dual oligo sensing of genotypes 1 and 3 by employing two target sequences (36-mers each) derived from the NS4B and NS5A regions of HCV genome, respectively. A set of 18-mer amine-tagged probes and another set of 18-mer fluorescently-labeled probes that were complementary to each half of the 36-mer target sequences were designed. The amine-tagged probes were immobilized over aldehyde-derivatized magnetite nanoparticles (NPs) via imine bond formation, which was characterized using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) mapping techniques. The successful hybridization between the two probes with their target followed by magnetic removal of the NPs from the solution enabled quantitative analysis of the target by measuring the fluorescence intensity of the residual concentration of the fluorescently-tagged probe. In this manner, the targets corresponding to genotypes 1 and 3 were simultaneously detected with the detection limit in the range of 10-15 nM. The current strategy can potentially be amalgamated with existing nanotechnology-based techniques towards multiplex oligo sensing of several pathogens.

Abstract
SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOCs) contain several single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) at key sites in the receptor-binding region (RBD) that enhance infectivity and transmission, as well as cause immune escape, resulting in an aggravation of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Emerging VOCs have sparked the need for a diagnostic method capable of simultaneously monitoring these SNVs. To date, no highly sensitive, efficient clinical tool exists to monitor SNVs simultaneously. Here, an encodable multiplex microsphere-phase amplification (MMPA) sensing platform that combines primer-coded microsphere technology with dual fluorescence decoding strategy to detect SARS-CoV-2 RNA and simultaneously identify 10 key SNVs in the RBD. MMPA limits the amplification refractory mutation system PCR (ARMS-PCR) reaction for specific target sequence to the surface of a microsphere with specific fluorescence coding. This effectively solves the problem of non-specific amplification among primers and probes in multiplex PCR. For signal detection, specific fluorescence codes inside microspheres are used to determine the corresponding relationship between the microspheres and the SNV sites, while the report probes hybridized with PCR products are used to detect the microsphere amplification intensity. The MMPA platform offers a lower SARS-CoV-2 RNA detection limit of 28 copies/reaction, the ability to detect a respiratory pathogen panel without cross-reactivity, and a SNV analysis accuracy level comparable to that of sequencing. Moreover, this super-multiple parallel SNVs detection method enables a timely updating of the panel of detected SNVs that accompanies changing VOCs, and presents a clinical availability that traditional sequencing methods do not.

Abstract
Porous silicon (pSi) is an established porous material that offers ample opportunities for biosensor design thanks to its tunable structure, versatile surface chemistry, and large surface area. Nonetheless, its potential for electrochemical sensing is relatively unexplored. This study investigates layered carbon-stabilized pSi nanostructures with site-specific functionalities as an electrochemical biosensor. A double-layer nanostructure combining a top hydrophilic layer of thermally carbonized pSi (TCpSi) and a bottom hydrophobic layer of thermally hydrocarbonized pSi (THCpSi) is prepared. The modified layers are formed in a stepwise process, involving first an electrochemical anodization step to generate a porous layer with precisely defined pore morphological features, followed by deposition of a thin thermally carbonized coating on the pore walls via temperature-controlled acetylene decomposition. The second layer is then generated beneath the first by following the same two-step process, but the acetylene decomposition conditions are adjusted to deposit a thermally hydrocarbonized coating. The double-layer platform features excellent electrochemical properties such as fast electron-transfer kinetics, which underpin the performance of a TCpSi-THCpSi voltammetric DNA sensor. The biosensor targets a 28-nucleotide single-stranded DNA sequence with a detection limit of 0.4 pM, two orders of magnitude lower than the values reported to date by any other pSi-based electrochemical DNA sensor.

Abstract
Food safety analysis plays a significant role in controlling food contamination and supervision. In recent years, multiplex optical bioassays (MOBAs) have been widely applied to analyze multiple hazards due to their efficiency and low cost. However, due to the challenges such as multiplexing capacity, poor sensitivity, and bulky instrumentation, the further application of traditional MOBAs in food screening has been limited. In this review, effective strategies regarding food safety MOBAs are summarized, such as spatial-resolution modes performed in multi-T lines/dots strips or arrays of strip/microplate/microfluidic chip/SPR chip and signal-resolution modes employing distinguishable colorimetric/luminescence/fluorescence/surface plasma resonance/surface-enhanced Raman spectrum as signal tags. Following this, new trends on how to design engineered sensor architecture and exploit distinguishable signal reporters, how to improve both multiplexing capacity and sensitivity, and how to integrate these formats into smartphones so as to be mobile are summarized systematically. Typically, in the case of enhancing multiplexing capacity and detection throughput, microfluidic array chips with multichannel architecture would be a favorable approach to overcome the spatial and physical limitations of immunochromatographic assay (ICA) test strips. Moreover, noble metal nanoparticles and single-excitation, multiple-emission luminescence nanomaterials hold great potential in developing ultrasensitive MOBAs. Finally, the exploitation of innovative multiplexing strategy hybridized with powerful and widely available smartphones opens new perspectives to MOBAs. In future, the MOBAs should be more sensitive, have higher multiplexing capacity, and easier instrumentation.

Abstract
The incidence rates of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including the four major curable STIs - chlamydia, gonorrhea, trichomoniasis and, syphilis - continue to increase globally, causing medical cost burden and morbidity especially in low and middle-income countries (LMIC). There have seen significant advances in diagnostic testing, but commercial antigen-based point-of-care tests (POCTs) are often insufficiently sensitive and specific, while near-point-of-care (POC) instruments that can perform sensitive and specific nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) are technically complex and expensive, especially for LMIC. Thus, there remains a critical need for NAAT-based STI POCTs that can improve diagnosis and curb the ongoing epidemic. Unfortunately, the development of such POCTs has been challenging due to the gap between researchers developing new technologies and healthcare providers using these technologies. This review aims to bridge this gap. We first present a short introduction of the four major STIs, followed by a discussion on the current landscape of commercial near-POC instruments for the detection of these STIs. We present relevant research toward addressing the gaps in developing NAAT-based STI POCT technologies and supplement this discussion with technologies for HIV and other infectious diseases, which may be adapted for STIs. Additionally, as case studies, we highlight the developmental trajectory of two different POCT technologies, including one approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Finally, we offer our perspectives on future development of NAAT-based STI POCT technologies.

Abstract
A multiplex assay based on a low-density hydrogel microarray was developed to identify genomic substitutions in N. gonorrhoeae that determine resistance to the currently recommended treatment agents ceftriaxone and azithromycin and the previously used drugs penicillin, tetracycline, and ciprofloxacin. The microarray identifies 74 drug resistance determinants in the N. gonorrhoeae penA, ponA, porB, gyrA, parC, rpsJ, mtrR, blaTEM, tetM, and 23S rRNA genes. The hydrogel elements were formed by automated dispensing of nanoliter-volume droplets followed by UV-induced copolymerization of NH2-containing oligonucleotides with gel-forming monomers. Polybutylene terephthalate plates without special modifications were used as microarray substrates. Sequences and concentrations of immobilized oligonucleotides, gel composition, and hybridization conditions were carefully selected, and the median discrimination ratio ranged from 2.8 to 29.4, allowing unambiguous identification of single-nucleotide substitutions. The mutation identification results in a control sample of 180 N. gonorrhoeae isolates were completely consistent with the Sanger sequencing results. In total, 648 clinical N. gonorrhoeae isolates obtained in Russia during the last 5 years were analyzed and genotyped using these microarrays. The results allowed us to draw conclusions about the present situation with antimicrobial susceptibility of N. gonorrhoeae in Russia and demonstrated the possibility of using hydrogel microarrays to control the spread of antibiotic resistance.
