BIOSENSORS 2024; 14:49. [PMID: 38248426 PMCID: PMC10813625 DOI: 10.3390/bios14010049] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2023] [Revised: 01/11/2024] [Accepted: 01/13/2024] [Indexed: 01/23/2024]
Abstract
Glutathione (GSH) and nickel (II) cation have an indispensable role in various physiological processes, including preventing the oxidative damage of cells and acting as a cofactor for lipid metabolic enzymes. An imbalance in the physiological level of these species may cause serious health complications. Therefore, sensitive and selective fluorescent probes for the detection of GSH and nickel (II) are of great interest for clinical as well as environmental monitoring. Herein, vancomycin-conjugated gold nanoparticles (PEI-AuNP@Van) were prepared and employed for the detection of GSH and nickel (II) based on a turn-on-off mechanism. The as-synthesized PEI-AuNP@Van was ~7.5 nm in size; it exhibited a spherical shape with face-centered cubic lattice symmetry. As compared to vancomycin unconjugated gold nanoparticles, GSH led to the turn-on state of PEI-AuNP@Van, while Ni2+ acted as a fluorescence quencher (turn-off) without the aggregation of nanoparticles. These phenomena strongly justify the active role of vancomycin conjugation for the detection of GSH and Ni2+. The turn-on-off kinetics was linearly proportional over the concentration range between 0.05-0.8 µM and 0.05-6.4 μM. The detection limits were 205.9 and 90.5 nM for GSH and Ni2+, respectively; these results are excellent in comparison to previous reports. This study demonstrates the active role of vancomycin conjugation for sensing of GSH and Ni2+ along with PEI-AuNP@Van as a promising nanoprobe.

Abstract
In this study, cationic carbon dots (CDs) were prepared from p-phenylenediamine (pPDA) via a one-step hydrothermal method and used to trigger the aggregation and dispersion of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) for the colorimetric detection of nucleic acids. Physicochemical characterization results revealed that the CDs are enriched with positively charged surface functional groups with an average size of ∼11 nm. The interaction between the CDs and AuNPs was confirmed via fluorescence and absorption studies. Absorption spectroscopic results revealed that the primary surface plasmon resonance (SPR) band of the AuNPs decreased upon introduction of CDs, and a new band emerged at ∼600 nm, indicating the aggregated assembly of AuNPs. Upon the introduction of double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), the band corresponding to the aggregated AuNPs showed a continuous decrease, accompanied by a simultaneous increase in the primary SPR band, leading to a noticeable purple-to-red color transformation. Based on this phenomenon, a colorimetric assay for DNA was developed, which relies on the interaction between negatively charged DNA and cationic CDs, leaving the AuNPs dispersed. The assay exhibited a linear response within a DNA concentration range of 0.7-14 nM with a detection limit of 1.70 nM. Selectivity results showed that colorimetric assays are specific for both DNA and single-stranded DNA (ssDNA). Smartphone-assisted detection was developed by monitoring the colorimetric response of a AuNPs/CDs probe. As a proof-of-concept experiment, the AuNPs/CDs probe was used to visualize the loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) of Escherichia coli (E. coli), a robust indicator of sewage contamination in water.

Abstract
In this study, a novel "on-off-enhanced on" approach to highly sensitive rapid sensing of biothiols was developed, based on competitive modulation of gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) and Hg2+ ions. In our approach, the AuNCs were encapsulated into a zeolite imidazole framework (ZIF) for predesigned competitive aggregation-induced luminescence (AIE) emission. To readily operate this approach, the Hg2+ ions were selected as mediators to quench the fluorescence of AuNCs. Then, due to the stronger affinities between the interactions of Hg2+ ions with -SH groups in comparison to the AuNCs with -SH groups, the quenched probe of AuNCs@ZIF-8/Hg2+ displayed enhanced fluorescence after the Hg2+ ions were competitively interacted with -SH groups. Based on enhanced fluorescence, the probe for AuNCs@ZIF-8/Hg2+ had a sensitive and specific response to trace amounts of biothiols. The developed fluorescence strategy had limit of quantification (LOQ) values of 1.0 μM and 1.5 μM for Cys and GSH molecules in serum, respectively. This competitive AIE strategy provided a new direction for developing biological probes and a promising method for quantifying trace amounts of biothiols in serum. It could promote progress in disease diagnosis.

Abstract
This paper reported a real-time detection strategy for Hg2+ inspired by the visible spectrophotometer that used a smartphone as a low-cost micro-spectrometer. In combination with the smartphone's camera and optical accessories, the phone's built-in software can process the received light band image and then read out the spectral data in real time. The sensor was also used to detect gold nanoparticles with an LOD of 0.14 μM, which are widely used in colorimetric biosensors. Ultimately, a gold nanoparticles-glutathione (AuNPs-GSH) conjugate was used as a probe to detect Hg2+ in water with an LOD of 1.2 nM and was applied successfully to natural mineral water, pure water, tap water, and river water samples.

Abstract
The ability to estimate and quantify biothiols in biological fluids is very significant for attaining a detailed understanding of biothiols-related pathological diseases. Most of the developed methods for biothiols detection are not suitable for this purpose owing to their low sensitivity, poor selectivity, and long experimental procedures. In this study, a novel and simple structure electrochemical probe has been synthesized for the first time for the selective determination of biothiols. The developed probe is based on using 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfonyl moiety (DNBS) as a selective recognition moiety for biothiols. The electrochemical probe was successfully fabricated through a facile one-step reaction between 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfonyl chloride (DNBS-Cl) and p-aminophenol. The successful synthesis of the probe was confirmed by using different characterization techniques such as an NMR spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry. Biothiols can selectively cleave the DNBS moiety through an aromatic nucleophilic substitution (ANS) reaction within 10 min to release p-aminophenol, which is a highly electrochemical active molecule that can be selectively detected easily by cyclic voltammetry at low potential. The probe has been employed for the quantification of cysteine, glutathione, and homocysteine with a LOD of 1.50, 3.48, and 4.67 μM, respectively. Excellent recoveries have been achieved in the range of 95.44-98.71% for the determination of the total biothiols in the human plasma sample.

Abstract
This work initially reports a new nanosening method for simple, sensitive, specific, visual detection of mercury (II) (Hg2+) and glutathione (GSH) using the Tyndall Effect (TE) of the same colloidal gold nanoparticle (GNP) probes for efficient colorimetric signaling amplification. For the TE-inspired assay (TEA) method, arginine (Arg) molecules are pre-modified on the GNPs' surfaces (Arg-GNPs). Upon the Hg2+ introduction, it can be specifically coordinated with the terminal -NH2 and -COOH groups of the Arg molecules to make the Arg-GNPs aggregate, producing a significantly-enhanced TE signal in the reaction solution after its irradiation by a 635-nm red laser pointer pen. On the other hand, the introduction of the GSH results in the production of the original Arg-GNPs' weak TE response, as it is able to bind such metal ion via mercury-thiol reactions to inhibit the above aggregation. Under the optimal conditions, the utility of the new TEA method is well demonstrated to quantitatively detect the Hg2+ and GSH with the aid of a smartphone as a portable TE reader during the linear concentration ranges of 50-3000 and 10-3000 nM, respectively. The detection limits for the Hg2+ and GSH are estimated to be as low as ∼3.5 and ∼0.3 nM, respectively. The recovery results obtained from the detection of Hg2+ in the complex tap and pond water samples and the assay of GSH in real human serum and urine samples are also satisfactory.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative disorders (NDDs) are progressive, incurable health conditions that primarily affect brain cells, and result in loss of brain mass and impaired function. Current sensing technologies for NDD detection are limited by high cost, long sample preparation, and/or require skilled personnel. To overcome these limitations, optical sensors, specifically colorimetric sensors, have garnered increasing attention towards the development of a cost-effective, simple, and rapid alternative approach. In this review, we evaluate colorimetric sensing strategies of NDD biomarkers (e.g. proteins, neurotransmitters, bio-thiols, and sulfide), address the limitations and challenges of optical sensor technologies, and provide our outlook on the future of this field.

Abstract
A new nanosensor for glutathione (GSH) detection by use of single nanoelectrodes has been developed through a dual-signaling ratiometric amplification strategy. Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) metalized DNA1 was modified on an Au nanoelectrode surface. Due to the strong affinity between Ag NP and GSH, Ag NPs could be removed by the addition of GSH. The remaining metalized DNA1 could hardly form a double strand, while the de-metalized DNA1 could hybrid with DNA2 and DNA3 to form a complex structure to adsorb methylene blue (MB), and then the electrochemical signal of differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) from MB oxidation could be observed. With the addition of GSH, the peak current of MB oxidation at about -0.27 V (IMB) increases, while the signal of Ag oxidation at about 0.1 V (IAg) decreases. It was found that there had a linear relationship between the ratio of dual-signal (IMB/IAg) and the GSH concentrations, which could be used to detect GSH. The ratiometric nanosensor is label-free, easy to operate, and can eliminate inherent system errors. Considering the advantages of nanoelectrodes, such as low IR drop, fast response, and small overall dimension, this developed nanosensor can be used for GSH detection living systems (e.g., cell lysate).

Abstract
Distance dependent optical properties of colloidal gold nanoparticles offer designing of colorimetric sensing modalities for detection of a variety of analytes. Herein, we report a simple and facile colorimetric detection assay for an anti-cancer drug, Sanguinarine (SNG) and Calf Thymus DNA (Ct-DNA) based on citrate reduced gold nanoparticles (CI-Au NPs). The electrostatic interaction between SNG and CI-Au NPs induce aggregation of Au NPs accompanied with visible colour change of colloidal solution. The assay conditions like salt concentration, pH and reaction time had been adjusted to achieve highly sensitive and fast colorimetric response. Furthermore, the optimized CI-Au NPs/SNG sensing system is used for the detection of Ct-DNA based on the mechanism of anti-aggregation of CI-Au NPs. The simultaneous presence of SNG and Ct-DNA prevent aggregation of Au NPs owing to preferential formation of Ct-DNA-SNG intercalation complex and colour of the Au NPs solution tends to remain red, depending on the concentration of Ct-DNA in solution. The degree of aggregation and anti-aggregation of CI-Au NPs was monitored using Transmission electron microscopic (TEM) measurements and UV-Visible spectrophotometry by analysing the ratio of absorptions for aggregated and dispersed Au NPs. The intercalation mode of binding between SNG and Ct-DNA in CI-Au NPs/SNG sensing system was determined by Fluorescence spectral studies and UV-thermal melting studies. The absorption ratio (A627/A525) of Au NPs exhibited a linear correlation with SNG concentrations in the range from 0 to 0.9 μM with detection limit as 0.046 μM. This optical method can determine Ct-DNA as low as 0.36 μM and the calibration is linear for concentration range 0 to 5 μM. The proposed sensing strategy enables detection as well as quantification of SNG & Ct-DNA in real samples with satisfactory results and finds application in drug or DNA monitoring.

Abstract
In this work, a new type of hollow MnFeO oxide derived obtained from the metal-organic framework (MOF)@MOF was designed and proposed, which has intrinsic activity of mimicking enzymes of oxidase and peroxidase by adjustment pH values. Based on the colorimetric reaction and the hindrance of the oxidase-like activity in the presence of L-cysteine (Cys), as well as the recovery of oxidase-like activity due to the specific complexation of Cys and mercury (II) ions (Hg2+), a new type of colorimetric transmission platform for Cys and Hg2+ detection with wide linear ranges of 1-25 μM for Cys and 0.1-15 μM for Hg2+ has been developed. Besides, a better colorimetric sensing platform for detecting H2O2 was established with linear ranges of 1-60 μM and 60-300 μM based on generating hydroxyl radicals (·OH). Furthermore, the hollow MnFeO oxide has high stability, excellent selectivity with good activity over a long period of time. Surprisingly, the proposed method for Cys, Hg2+ and H2O2 estimation can also be used in actual samples. These characteristics lay a foundation for further investigation about the catalytic activity of the hollow MnFeO oxide nanomaterials and make it show broad prospects in the field of biosensing and catalysis.

Abstract
Abnormal concentrations of glutathione (GSH) are important indicators of many human diseases such as cancers, liver damage, AIDS, and Alzheimer's disease. In this work, a kind of bovine serum albumin (BSA)@Au core-shell particles were fabricated using 110 nm BSA aggregates as a template, onto which gold shells composed of Au nanoparticles (NPs) were grown through a seeded growth approach. The morphology of the Au shells deposited on BSA aggregates was tuned from sparse to dense distribution of Au NPs by increasing the concentration of silver ions contained in the growth solutions. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) peaks of BSA@Au particles were tunable in the range from 550 to 620 nm, corresponding to evolution in color from red to blue due to the enhanced plasmonic coupling among the Au NPs in the shell. The blue BSA@Au particles were qualified for colorimetric detection of GSH since GSH may act as a swelling agent for BSA@Au particles by breaking the intermolecular disulfide bonds in BSA aggregates. With an increased amount of GSH presented, the color of BSA@Au particles evolved from blue to red attributed to gradual swelling of BSA@Au particles and thus increased the distance among the Au NPs in the shell, which was readily recognized by naked eyes or recorded by ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy. This colorimetric method exhibited good selectivity and anti-interference capability in the analysis of GSH in real samples. In addition, a solid sensing system for the detection of GSH was designed and fabricated by dispersing BSA@Au particles into an agarose hydrogel.

Abstract
Intracellular thiols (e.g., cysteine, homocysteine, and glutathione) play critical roles in biological functions. Glutathione is the most abundant cellular thiol which is important for preserving redox homeostasis in biosystems. Herein, we demonstrated the fabrication of responsive photonic crystals (RPCs) for selective detection of thiol-containing biomolecules through the combination of self-assembly of monodisperse carbon-encapsulated Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) and in situ photopolymerization. Typically, the polyacrylamide-based PCs were prepared by a cross-linking agent containing disulfide bonds. Interestingly, the specific chemical reaction between the disulfide bonds and thiol-containing biomolecules leads to the decrease of the cross-linking degree for the RPCs, triggering the swelling of the hydrogel and increase of the NP lattice spacing. The reduced glutathione (10-6 to 10-2 mol/L) can be determined by measuring the diffracted wavelength or visually observing the structural color change. Moreover, the RPCs can be used to detect different kinds of thiol-containing biomolecules by a simple color variation due to different reaction rates between disulfide bonds and different thiol-containing biomolecules. This study provides a facile yet effective strategy for visualized determination of the thiol-containing biomolecules.

Abstract
Gold nanostar@reduced graphene oxide (GNS@rGO) nanocomposite was used as a catalyst in a chemiluminescence (CL) reaction. Composites with different sizes of gold nanostars were prepared without any surfactant, and characterized by transmission electron microscopy, UV-visible, FT-IR and Raman spectroscopy. We showed that GNS@rGO can strongly enhance the intensity of luminol‑sodium periodate CL system and the larger the GNS size, the greater the enhancing effect. This effect results from the unique catalytic action of GNS@rGO, which leads to the acceleration of reactive oxygen species generation. We also found that a remarkable increase in the CL intensity of GNS@rGO-luminol-NaIO4 system occurs in the presence of glutathione (GSH). Based on this observation, a simple and highly sensitive CL probe was developed for detection of GSH. Under the optimum conditions, the calibration curve exhibits a linear range from 1.0 nM to 1.0 μM for GSH with a detection limit of 0.2 nM. The developed method was applied to the detection of GSH in human plasma samples.

Abstract
The rapid development of information and communication technology provides an opportunity for scientists to develop a quantitative analytical method that is built on a mobile gadget as a detector. In this paper, we report a low-cost, simple and portable analytical method for mercury ion quantification based on digital image colorimetry coupled with a smartphone application. A small amount of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was used as a colorimetric agent that is selective only to mercury ions. The yellowish brown color of AgNPs instantly changed to colorless after the addition of mercury ions due to a redox reaction. To increase the portability, we attached the AgNPs onto a medium to create a paper-based analytical device. The final data processing of the colorimetric analysis was conducted using an android application available on the Google Play Store, called “Mercury Detector”. The proposed method has good sensitivity, with a detection limit of 0.86 ppb, which is comparable to those of bulk and more expensive instruments. This allows for the detection of mercury ions as low as 2 ppb (10 nM), which is also the maximum contaminant level permitted in drinking water by the US Environmental Protection Agency. The proposed method was applied to real samples that provide satisfactory results on accuracy (2.4%) and precision (2.5%).

Abstract
There is burgeoning interest among supramolecular chemists to develop novel molecular systems to detect biogenic amines and bio-thiols in aqueous and non-aqueous media due to their potential role in biological processes. Biogenic amines are biologically important targets because of their involvement in the energy metabolism of human biological systems and their requirement is met through food and nutrition. However, the increasing instances of serious health problems due to food toxicity have raised the quality of food nowadays. Biogenic amines have been frequently considered as the markers or primary quality parameters of foods like antioxidant properties, freshness and spoilage. For instance, these amines such as spermine, spermidine, cadavarine, etc. may originate during microbial decarboxylation of amino acids of fermented foods/beverages. These amines may also react with nitrite available in certain meat products and concomitantly produce carcinogenic nitrosamine compounds. On the other hand, it is also well established that biothiols, particularly, thiol amino acids, provide the basic characteristics to food including flavor, color and texture that determine its acceptability. For instance, the reduction of thiol groups produces hydrogen sulfide which reduces flavour as in rotten eggs and spoiled fish, and the presence of hydrogen sulfide in fish is indicative of spoilage. Thus, biogenic amines and bio-thiols have attracted the profound interest of researchers as analytical tools for their quantification. Much scientific and technological information is issued every year, where the establishment of precise interactions of biogenic amines and bio-thiols with other molecules is sought in aqueous and non-aqueous media. This review summarizes the optical chemosensors developed for the selective detection of biogenic amines and bio-thiols.

Abstract
Future food safety monitoring with simple, fast, and visual methods has become increasingly important. Accordingly, this work was designed to construct a new-style dual-emission ratiometric fluorescent probe (CdSe@SiO2@CdTe) for visual assay of glutathione (GSH) with a "turn on" strategy. After adding Hg2+, the red fluorescence of the outer CdTe quantum dots (QDs) was quenched through both electron transfer and ion-binding processes. Upon the addition of GSH, the red fluorescence occurred again owing to the strong affinity between GSH and Hg2+, whereas the inner green fluorescence of CdSe QDs was unchanged, leading to a clearly recognizable fluorescence color change (from green to orange-red). In the concentration range from 0.1 to 10 μM, the relative fluorescence intensity ratios ( I619/ I535) showed an excellent linear correlation with the concentration of GSH, and the detection limit was as low as 42 nM under optimal conditions. Meanwhile, the ratiometric hybrid probes were successfully applied for direct visual sensing GSH in real vegetable and fruit samples.

Abstract
In this work, a multilayer-modified paper-based colorimetric sensing platform with improved color uniformity and intensity was developed for the sensitive and selective determination of uric acid and glucose with smartphone as signal readout. In detail, chitosan, different kinds of chromogenic reagents, and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) combined with a specific oxidase, e.g., uricase or glucose oxidase (GOD), were immoblized onto the paper substrate to form a multilayer-modified test paper. Hydrogen peroxide produced by the oxidases (uricase or GOD) reacts with the substrates (uric acid or glucose), and could oxidize the co-immoblized chromogenic reagents to form colored products with HRP as catalyst. A simple strategy by placing the test paper on top of a light-emitting diode lamp was adopted to efficiently prevent influence from the external light. The color images were recorded by the smartphone camera, and then the gray values of the color images were calculated for quantitative analysis. The developed method provided a wide linear response from 0.01 to 1.0 mM for uric acid detection and from 0.02 to 4.0 mM for glucose detection, with a limit of detection (LOD) as low as 0.003 and 0.014 mM, respectively, which was much lower than for previously reported paper-based colorimetric assays. The proposed assays were successfully applied to uric acid and glucose detection in real serum samples. Furthermore, the enhanced analytical performance of the proposed method allowed the non-invasive detection of glucose levels in tear samples, which holds great potential for point-of-care analysis.

Abstract
AbstractAptamers are promising alternative binders that can substitute antibodies in various applications. Due to the advantages of aptamers, namely their high affinity, specificity and stability, along with the benefits originating from the chemical synthesis of aptamers, they have attracted attention in various applications including their use on nanostructured material. This necessitates the immobilization of aptamers on a solid support. Since aptamer immobilization may interfere with its binding properties, the immobilization of aptamers has to be investigated and optimized. Within this review, we give general insights into the principles and factors controlling the binding affinity of immobilized aptamers. Specific features of aptamer immobilization on nanostructured surfaces and nanoparticles are highlighted and a brief overview of applications of aptamer-modified nanostructured materials is given.

Abstract
Glutathione (GSH) is a crucial antioxidant produced endogenously and plays key roles in biological systems. It is vitally important to design simple, selective, and sensitive methods to sense GSH and monitor changes of GSH concentration. In this work, the cathodic electrochemiluminescence (ECL) of lucigenin in the presence of MnO2 nanosheets at a glassy carbon electrode was utilized for GSH detection. GSH can reduce MnO2 nanosheets into Mn(2+) which can obviously inhibit the ECL of lucigenin. The ECL inhibition efficiencies increase linearly with the concentrations of glutathione in the range of 10 to 2000 nM. The detection limit for GSH measurement is 3.7 nM. This proposed method is highly sensitive, selective, simple, fast, and cost-effective. Moreover, this approach can detect GSH in human serum samples with excellent recoveries, which indicates its promising application under physiological conditions.

Abstract
Mercury (Hg) and its derivatives pose a serious threat to the environment and human health. Thus, the development of methods for the selective and sensitive determination of Hg(2+) is very important to understand its distribution, and to implement more detailed toxicological studies. Herein, we developed a new method for the detection of Hg(2+) based on the tricyanoethylene derivative and mercaptoethanol. This method could selectively detect Hg(2+) in a 100% aqueous solution by the naked-eye within the range of 1 - 60 μM. Importantly, this method also could detect Hg(2+) quantitatively by ratiometic absorption spectroscopy in the range of 0.1 - 6 μM with a detection limit of 55 nM. We anticipate that this proposed method will be used widely to monitor Hg(2+) in the environment.

Abstract
A label-free colorimetric method for the detection of biological thiols (biothiols) was developed. This method is based on prevention of the photoinduced reduction of auric ions (Au(III)) in the presence of amino acids (acting as a reducing agent) by biothiols; the photoinduced reduction is inhibited due to the strong interaction of the biothiols with Au(III). In this method, the sample was first incubated in an assay solution containing Au(III) and threonine; the sample solution was then exposed to 254 nm UV light. For samples without biothiols, this process led to the photoreduction of Au(III) followed by growth of gold nanoparticles accompanied by the visually detectable development of a red coloration typified by an absorption peak at ca 530 nm. Conversely, in the presence of biothiols, reduction of Au(III) to Au(0) was prevented by entrapment of Au(III) within the biothiols via the thiol group. The solution thus remained colorless even after UV irradiation, which was used as an indicator of the presence of biothiols. Using this strategy, biothiols were very conveniently analyzed by monitoring color changes of the samples with the naked eye or a UV-vis spectrometer. The strategy based on this interesting phenomenon exhibited high selectivity toward biothiols over common amino acids and was successfully employed for reliable quantification of biothiols present in human plasma, demonstrating its great potential for clinical applications.
