Abstract
A one-target-many-trigger signal model sensing strategy is proposed for quickly, sensitive and on-site detection of the environmental pollutant p-aminophenol (PAP) by use of a commercial personal glucose meter (PGM) for signal readout with the core-shell "loading-type" nanomaterial MSNs@MnO2 as amplifiable nanoprobes. In this design, the mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) nanocontainer with entrapped signal molecule glucose is coated with redoxable manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanosheets to form the amplifiable nanoprobes (Glu-MSNs@MnO2). When encountered with PAP, the redox reaction between the MnO2 and PAP can induce the degradation of the outer layer of MSNs@MnO2, liberating multiple copies of the loaded glucose to light up the PGM signal. Owing to the high loading capability of nanocarriers, a "one-to-many" relationship exists between the target and the signal molecule glucose, which can generate adequate signal outputs to achieve the requirement of on-site determination of environmental pollutants. Taking advantage of this amplification mode, the developed PAP assay owns a dynamic linear range of 10.0-400 μM with a detection limit of 2.78 μM and provides good practical application performance with above 96.7 ± 4.83% recovery in environmental water and soil samples. Therefore, the PGM-based amplifiable sensor for PAP proposed can accommodate these requirements of environment monitoring and has promising potential for evaluating pollutants in real environmental samples.

Abstract
Food safety has emerged as a significant concern for global public health and sustainable development. The development of analytical tools capable of rapidly, conveniently, and sensitively detecting food safety hazards is imperative. Over the past few decades, personal glucose meters (PGMs), characterized by their rapid response, low cost, and high degree of commercialization, have served as portable signal output devices extensively utilized in the construction of biosensors. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the mechanism underlying the construction of PGM-based biosensors, which consists of three fundamental components: recognition, signal transduction, and signal output. It also detailedly enumerates available recognition and signal transduction elements, and their modes of integration. Then, a multitude of instances is examined to present the latest advancements in the application of PGMs in food safety detection, including targets such as pathogenic bacteria, mycotoxins, agricultural and veterinary drug residues, heavy metal ions, and illegal additives. Finally, the challenges and prospects of PGM-based biosensors are highlighted, aiming to offer valuable references for the iterative refinement of detection techniques and provide a comprehensive framework and inspiration for further investigations.

Construction of a portable immunosensor for the sensitive detection of carbendazim in agricultural products using a personal glucose meter. Food Chem 2023; 407:135161. [PMID: 36502732 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2022.135161] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2022] [Revised: 11/26/2022] [Accepted: 12/04/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Portable and sensitive detection of carbendazim (CBD) is highly desirable for food safety and environmental protection. Herein, a portable immunosensor for the sensitive detection of CBD is proposed based on alkaline phosphatase (ALP)-labeled and secondary antibody-modified gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The quantification is based on ALP catalyzing the dephosphorylation of glucose-1-phosphate disodium salt to generate glucose, thus converting the concentration of CBD into glucose, thereby realizing the portable detection of CBD by personal glucose meter. Benefiting from signal amplification strategy that integrates the large specific surface area of AuNPs, the enzymatic reactions of terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase and ALP, a low detection limit of 0.37 ng/mL for CBD is achieved. When this portable method is used to analyze citrus fruit, canned citrus, and cabbage, good-consistency results are obtained with the UPLC-MS/MS method. The good performance demonstrates the great potential of this portable method for CBD monitoring in resource-poor settings.

Abstract
Ensuring food safety is paramount worldwide. Developing effective detection methods to ensure food safety can be challenging owing to trace hazards, long detection time, and resource-poor sites, in addition to the matrix effects of food. Personal glucose meter (PGM), a classic point-of-care testing device, possesses unique application advantages, demonstrating promise in food safety. Currently, many studies have used PGM-based biosensors and signal amplification technologies to achieve sensitive and specific detection of food hazards. Signal amplification technologies have the potential to greatly improve the analytical performance and integration of PGMs with biosensors, which is crucial for solving the challenges associated with the use of PGMs for food safety analysis. This review introduces the basic detection principle of a PGM-based sensing strategy, which consists of three key factors: target recognition, signal transduction, and signal output. Representative studies of existing PGM-based sensing strategies combined with various signal amplification technologies (nanomaterial-loaded multienzyme labeling, nucleic acid reaction, DNAzyme catalysis, responsive nanomaterial encapsulation, and others) in the field of food safety detection are reviewed. Future perspectives and potential opportunities and challenges associated with PGMs in the field of food safety are discussed. Despite the need for complex sample preparation and the lack of standardization in the field, using PGMs in combination with signal amplification technology shows promise as a rapid and cost-effective method for food safety hazard analysis.

Abstract
The α-glucosidase inhibitor is regarded as one of the most important drugs for the treatment of diabetes, which can control postprandial blood glucose levels via prolonging the carbohydrate digestion time and retarding the carbohydrates’ absorption. The present work aims to establish a facile bioanalytical method, based on α-glucosidase catalyzing the hydrolysis of 2-O-alpha-D-Glucopyranosyl-L-ascorbic acid (AA-2G), for the quantification of acarbose and migliol using a personal glucose meter (PGM). The hydrolysis products (ascorbic acid and glucose) can trigger the reduction of K3[Fe(CN)6] to K4[Fe(CN)6] in the glucose test strips, which results in the formation of the electron, which can be measured by PGM. Thus, ascorbic acid and glucose can be simultaneously measured by a simplified and miniaturized PGM method. However, the products produced by the hydrolysis of AA-2G will be decreased after the addition of acarbose or migliol to inhibit the activity of α-glucosidase, thereby resulting in a decreased PGM readout. After being incubated with α-glucosidase for 3.0 min and enzymatic reaction for 5.0 min, the quantitative detection of acarbose and migliol can be achieved within the ranges of 1.0–30.0 μM with the limit of detection of 0.33 μM and 3.0–33.3 μM with the limit of detection of 1.0 μM, respectively. IC50 values for acarbose and migliol are calculated to be 10.0 μM and 16.0 μM, respectively. The recoveries of the acarbose and migliol spiked with three different concentrations (final concentrations of 10.0, 20.0, and 30.0 μM) in human serum sample are in the ranges of 89.6–114.5% and 93.9–106.5%, respectively. These results demonstrate that the developed PGM method may be useful in future studies on therapeutic monitoring of acarbose and migliol.

Abstract
Heavy metal contamination remains a major threat to the environment. Evaluating the concentrations of heavy metals in water environments is a crucial step towards a viable treatment strategy. Non-cadmium photo-luminescent I-III-VI ternary QDs have attracted increasing attention due to their low toxicity and extraordinary optical properties, which have made them popular in biological applications. Recently, ternary I-III-VI-QDs have gained growing interest as fluorescent detectors of heavy metal ions in water. Here, we review the research progress of ternary I-III-VI QDs for the fluorescence detection of heavy metal ions in water. First, we summarize the optical properties and synthesis methodologies of ternary I-III-VI QDs. Then, we present various detection mechanisms involved in the fluorescence detection of heavy metal ions, which are mostly attributed to direct interaction between these unique QDs and the metal ions, seen in the form of fluorescence quenching and fluorescence enhancement. We also display the potential applications in environmental remediation such as water treatment and associated challenges of I-III-VI QDs in the fluorescence detection of Cu2+ and other metal ions.

Abstract
As a key enzyme regulating postprandial blood glucose, α-Glucosidase is considered to be an effective target for the treatment of diabetes mellitus. In this study, a simple, rapid, and effective method for enzyme inhibitors screening assay was established based on α-glucosidase catalyzes reactions in a personal glucose meter (PGM). α-glucosidase catalyzes the hydrolysis of maltose to produce glucose, which triggers the reduction of ferricyanide (K3[Fe(CN)6]) to ferrocyanide (K4[Fe(CN)6]) and generates the PGM detectable signals. When the α-glucosidase inhibitor (such as acarbose) is added, the yield of glucose and the readout of PGM decreased accordingly. This method can achieve the direct determination of α-glucosidase activity by the PGM as simple as the blood glucose tests. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the developed method was applied to evaluate the inhibitory activity of thirty-four small-molecule compounds and eighteen medicinal plants extracts on α-glucosidase. The results exhibit that lithospermic acid (52.5 ± 3.0%) and protocatechualdehyde (36.8 ± 2.8%) have higher inhibitory activity than that of positive control acarbose (31.5 ± 2.5%) at the same final concentration of 5.0 mM. Besides, the lemon extract has a good inhibitory effect on α-glucosidase with a percentage of inhibition of 43.3 ± 3.5%. Finally, the binding sites and modes of four active small-molecule compounds to α-glucosidase were investigated by molecular docking analysis. These results indicate that the PGM method is feasible to screening inhibitors from natural products with simple and rapid operations.

Abstract
Development of personal glucose meters (PGMs) for blood glucose monitoring and management by the diabetic patients has been a long history since its first invention in 1968 and commercial application in 1975. The main reasons for its wide acceptance and popularity can be attributed mainly to the easy operation, test-to-result model, low cost, and small volume of sample required for blood glucose concentration test. During past decades, advances in analytical techniques have repurposed the use of PGMs into a general point-of-care testing platform for a variety of non-glucose targets, especially the food hazards. In this review, we summarized the recent published research using PGMs to detect the food safety hazards of mycotoxins, illegal additives, pathogen bacteria, and pesticide and veterinary drug residues detection with PGMs. The progress on PGM-based detection achieved in food safety have been carefully compared and analyzed. Furthermore, the current bottlenecks and challenges for practical applications of PGM for hazards detection in food safety have also been proposed.

Abstract
The application of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) as drug delivery systems to deliver drugs, proteins, and genes has expanded considerably in recent years, using in vitro and animal studies. For future translation to clinical applications, the biological safety aspects of MSNs must be considered carefully. This paper reviews the biosafety of MSNs, examining key issues such as biocompatibility, effects on immune cells and erythrocytes, biodistribution, biodegradation and clearance, and how these vary depending on the effects of the physical and chemical properties of MSNs such as particle size, porosity, morphology, surface charge, and chemical modifications. The future use of MSNs as a delivery system must extend beyond what has been learnt thus far using rodent animal models to encompass larger animals.

A portable personal glucose meter method for enzyme activity detection and inhibitory activity evaluation based on alkaline phosphatase-mediated reaction. Anal Bioanal Chem 2021; 413:2457-2466. [PMID: 33674935 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-021-03187-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2020] [Revised: 01/17/2021] [Accepted: 01/19/2021] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
In this study, an effective and portable method for enzyme activity detection and inhibitory activity evaluation was developed based on the alkaline phosphatase (ALP)-mediated reaction in a personal glucose meter (PGM). In this method, ALP catalyzes the hydrolysis of substrate amifostine (WR-2721) to produce ethanethiol (WR-1065), which can trigger the reduction of ferricyanide (K3[Fe(CN)6]), an electron transfer mediator in glucose test strips, to ferrocyanide ([K4Fe(CN)6]) and generate a PGM-detectable signal. Thus, WR-1065 can be directly quantified by a PGM as simply as detecting glucose in blood. After being systematically optimized, the method was applied to evaluate the inhibitory activity of ten small-molecule compounds and six Cordyceps sinensis (CS) extracts on ALP. The results showed that adenosine-5-monophosphate and theophylline had high inhibitory activity, but two CS extracts have promotion potency on ALP with the values of -20.7 ± 1.3% and -46.6 ± 2.1%, respectively. Moreover, the binding sites and modes of small-molecule compounds to ALP were investigated by molecular docking, while a new substrate competitor with theoretically good inhibitory activity against ALP was designed by scaffold hopping. Finally, the accuracy of the PGM method for enzyme activity detection was assessed by detecting ALP from milk samples, and the recovery ranged from 87.7% to 116.9%. These results indicate that it is feasible to evaluate enzyme activity and the inhibitory activity of small-molecule compounds and CS extracts on ALP using a PGM based on ALP-mediated reaction.

Abstract
There is a growing demand for high-performance point-of-care (POC) diagnostic technologies where in vitro diagnostics (IVD) is fundamental for prevention, identification, and treatment of many diseases. Over the past decade, a shift of IVDs from the centralized laboratories to POC settings is emerging. In this review, we summarize recent progress in translating IVDs from centralized labs to POC settings using commercially available handheld meters. After introducing typical workflows for IVDs and highlight innovative technologies in this area, we discuss advantages of using commercially available handheld meters for translating IVDs from centralized labs to POC settings. We then provide comprehensive coverage of different signal transduction strategies to repurpose the commercially-available handheld meters, including personal glucose meter, pH meter, thermometer and pressure meter, for detecting a wide range of targets by integrating biochemical assays with the meters for POC testing. Finally, we identify remaining challenges and offer future outlook in this area.

Abstract
Lead contamination in drinking water is a primary concern in public health, but it is difficult to monitor by end-users. Here, we provide a rapid and power-free microfluidic particle dam which enables visual quantification of lead ions (Pb2+) by the naked eye. GR-5 DNAzyme with extended termini can connect magnetic microparticles (MMPs) and polystyrene microparticles (PMPs) by DNA hybridization, forming "MMPs-GR-5-PMPs". When Pb2+ is present, GR-5 is cleaved, resulting in an increasing number of free PMPs. To visually count the free PMPs, the solution is loaded to a capillary-driven microfluidic device that consists of a magnetic separator to remove the MMPs-GR-5-PMPs, followed by a particle dam that traps and accumulates the free PMPs into a visual bar with growing length proportional to the concentration of lead. The device achieved a limit of detection at 2.12 nM (0.44 ppb), high selectivity (>20,000-fold) against other metal ions, high tolerance to different pH and water hardness, and is compatible with tap water with a high recovery rate, enabling visual quantification and user-friendly interface for rapid screening of water safety.

Abstract
Developing a facile and sensitive sensing platform is of importance for point-of-care testing (POCT). Herein, a sensitive and portable POCT platform based on "dual gates" aminated magnetic mesoporous silica nanocomposites (AMMS) bearing polydopamine (PDA)-aptamer (Apt) two-tier shells, as a novel nanodevice, is designed for target detection through a target-triggered glucose (GO) release from AMMS with personal glucometer (PGM) readout. In the absence of target, GO can be firmly captured in pores by the designed "dual gates", which would decrease the high background signal of this system and ensure the accuracy of the detection results. Upon the introduction of the target molecules under acidic conditions (pH 5.5), the subsequent PDA self-degradation and the specific Apt-target reaction can cause the departure of "dual gates" and the opening of pores to release the loaded GO molecules, which could be quantitatively monitored by a portable PGM. It has been demonstrated that such POCT platform shows high sensitivity and excellent selectivity for aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) detection, accompanied by the well-presented reproducibility and stability. Importantly, this sensing platform was further validated by assaying contaminated samples, where the obtained results were well matched with that by HPLC. Regarding the features of portability, high sensitivity, and high throughput detection, the developed platform might find wide applications in POCT.

Abstract
As a simple and feasible method for acute biotoxicity assessment, personal glucose meter (PGM) can be successfully applied in the early warning of environmental pollutants in sewage. In this paper, the acute biotoxicity of single and joint heavy metals in sewage and real sludge samples was systematically described based on the glucose metabolism of Escherichia coli (E. coli). Results indicated that the biotoxicity order of five single heavy metals in sewage was Hg2+ > As3+ > Cu2+ > Zn2+ > Cd2+. The joint heavy metals of Cu2+ + Zn2+, Cu2+ + Cd2+, and Cu2+ + Hg2+ produced synergistic effects, while Cu2+ + As3+ and Cd2+ + Zn2+ possessed antagonistic effects for the combined biotoxicity. In spiked sludge, Cd2+ and Zn2+ owned higher biotoxicity than Cu2+ and As3+. Notably, the electroplate factory and housing estate sludge respectively showed the highest and lowest inhibition rates as 57.4% and 17.7% under the real sludge biotoxicity assessment. These results demonstrated that PGM was a sensitive and portable method, which could be widely used for acute biotoxicity assessment of heavy metals in sewage sludge.

Abstract
Mesoporous materials are ideal carriers for guest molecules and they have been widely used in analytical science. The unique mesoporous structure provides special properties including large specific surface area, tunable pore size, and excellent pore connectivity. The structural properties of mesoporous materials have been largely made use of to improve the performance of analytical methods. For instance, the large specific surface area of mesoporous materials can provide abundant active sites and increase the probability of contact between analytes and active sites to produce stronger signals, thus leading to the improvement of detection sensitivity. The connections between analytical performances and the structural properties of mesoporous materials have not been discussed previously. Understanding the "structure-performance relationship" is highly important for the development of analytical methods with excellent performance based on mesoporous materials. In this review, we discuss the structural properties of mesoporous materials that can be optimized to improve the analytical performance. The discussion is divided into five sections according to the analytical performances: (i) selectivity-related structural properties, (ii) sensitivity-related structural properties, (iii) response time-related structural properties, (iv) stability-related structural properties, and (v) recovery time-related structural properties.

Abstract
The discovery and control of the biological roles mediated by nucleic acids have turned them into a powerful tool for the development of advanced biotechnological materials. Such is the importance of these gene-keeping biomacromolecules that even nanomaterials have succumbed to the claimed benefits of DNA and RNA. Currently, there could be found in the literature a practically intractable number of examples reporting the use of combination of nanoparticles with nucleic acids, so boundaries are demanded. Following this premise, this review will only cover the most recent and powerful strategies developed to exploit the possibilities of nucleic acids as biotechnological materials when in combination with mesoporous silica nanoparticles. The extensive research done on nucleic acids has significantly incremented the technological possibilities for those biomacromolecules, which could be employed in many different applications, where substrate or sequence recognition or modulation of biological pathways due to its coding role in living cells are the most promising. In the present review, the chosen counterpart, mesoporous silica nanoparticles, also with unique properties, became a reference material for drug delivery and biomedical applications due to their high biocompatibility and porous structure suitable for hosting and delivering small molecules. Although most of the reviews dealt with significant advances in the use of nucleic acid and mesoporous silica nanoparticles in biotechnological applications, a rational classification of these new generation hybrid materials is still uncovered. In this review, there will be covered promising strategies for the development of living cell and biological sensors, DNA-based molecular gates with targeting, transfection or silencing properties, which could provide a significant advance in current nanomedicine.

Abstract
To solve the requirement of on-site, rapid, and visual detection of copper (II) (Cu2+) in aqueous solution, a turn-off sensor for detecting copper (II) ion was developed based on Cu2+-dependent DNAzyme as the recognition element and hybridization chain reaction (HCR)-based horseradish peroxidase (HRP) concatemers as the signal amplifier and the signal report element. The detection unit, which was composed of the immobilized Cu2+-dependent DNAzyme coupled with HCR-based HRP concatemers via Waston-Crick base pairing, could catalyze hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) via TMB, generating obvious green color and turning yellow after sulfuric acid termination with optical absorption at 450 nm. Upon Cu2+ addition, the substrate strand of the Cu2+-dependent DNAzyme concatenated with the HCR-based HRP complex was irreversibly cleaved, efficiently causing dramatic reduction of the detection signal. Under optimal conditions, the detection signal decreased with the concentration of Cu2+ in 5 min, exhibiting a linear calibration from 0.05 to 3 μM with a detection limit of 8 nM. The sensor also displayed a high selectivity for Cu2+ given the specificity and anti-interference of the detection unit, and this system was applicable for monitoring Cu2+ in real water samples. Generally speaking, the proposed sensor exhibits good potential in environment surveys.

Abstract
We present herein the use of nanoporous anodic alumina (NAA) as a suitable support to implement "molecular gates" for sensing applications. In our design, a NAA support is loaded with a fluorescent reporter (rhodamine B) and functionalized with a short single-stranded DNA. Then pores are blocked by the subsequent hybridisation of a specific cocaine aptamer. The response of the gated material was studied in aqueous solution. In a typical experiment, the support was immersed in hybridisation buffer solution in the absence or presence of cocaine. At certain times, the release of rhodamine B from pore voids was measured by fluorescence spectroscopy. The capped NAA support showed poor cargo delivery, but presence of cocaine in the solution selectively induced rhodamine B release. By this simple procedure a limit of detection as low as 5 × 10-7 M was calculated for cocaine. The gated NAA was successfully applied to detect cocaine in saliva samples and the possible re-use of the nanostructures was assessed. Based on these results, we believe that NAA could be a suitable support to prepare optical gated probes with a synergic combination of the favourable features of selected gated sensing systems and NAA.

Abstract
Recent advances in mobile network and smartphones have provided an enormous opportunity for transforming in vitro diagnostics (IVD) from central labs to home or other points of care (POC). A major challenge to achieving the goal is a long time and high costs associated with developing POC IVD devices in mobile Health (mHealth). Instead of developing a new POC device for every new IVD target, we and others are taking advantage of decades of research, development, engineering and continuous improvement of the blood glucose meter (BGM), including those already integrated with smartphones, and transforming the BGM into a general healthcare meter for POC IVDs of a wide range of biomarkers, therapeutic drugs and other analytical targets. In this review, we summarize methods to transduce and amplify selective binding of targets by antibodies, DNA/RNA aptamers, DNAzyme/ribozymes and protein enzymes into signals such as glucose or NADH that can be measured by commercially available BGM, making it possible to adapt many clinical assays performed in central labs, such as immunoassays, aptamer/DNAzyme assays, molecular diagnostic assays, and enzymatic activity assays onto BGM platform for quantification of non-glucose targets for a wide variety of IVDs in mHealth.

Abstract
Water contaminants, e.g., inorganic chemicals and microorganisms, are critical metrics for water quality monitoring and have significant impacts on human health and plants/organisms living in water. The scope and focus of this review is nanomaterial-based optical, electronic, and electrochemical sensors for rapid detection of water contaminants, e.g., heavy metals, anions, and bacteria. These contaminants are commonly found in different water systems. The importance of water quality monitoring and control demands significant advancement in the detection of contaminants in water because current sensing technologies for water contaminants have limitations. The advantages of nanomaterial-based sensing technologies are highlighted and recent progress on nanomaterial-based sensors for rapid water contaminant detection is discussed. An outlook for future research into this rapidly growing field is also provided.

Abstract
Silica mesoporous supports (SMSs) have a large specific surface area and volume and are particularly exciting vehicles for delivery applications. Such container-like structures can be loaded with numerous different chemical substances, such as drugs and reporters. Gated systems also contain addressable functions at openings of voids, and cargo delivery can be controlled on-command using chemical, biochemical or physical stimuli. Many of these gated SMSs have been applied for drug delivery. However, fewer examples of their use in sensing protocols have been reported. The approach of applying SMSs in sensing uses another concept-that of loading pores with a reporter and designing a capping mechanism that is selectively opened in the presence of a target analyte, which results in the delivery of the reporter. According to this concept, we provide herein a complete compilation of published examples of probes based on the use of capped SMSs for sensing. Examples for the detection of anions, cations, small molecules and biomolecules are provided. The diverse range of gated silica mesoporous materials presented here highlights their usefulness in recognition protocols.

Abstract
Hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (HMSNs) are one of the most promising carriers for effective drug delivery due to their large surface area, high volume for drug loading and excellent biocompatibility. However, the non-ionic surfactant templated HMSNs often have a broad size distribution and a defective mesoporous structure because of the difficulties involved in controlling the formation and organization of micelles for the growth of silica framework. In this paper, a novel "Eudragit assisted" strategy has been developed to fabricate HMSNs by utilising the Eudragit nanoparticles as cores and to assist in the self-assembly of micelle organisation. Highly dispersed mesoporous silica spheres with intact hollow interiors and through pores on the shell were fabricated. The HMSNs have a high surface area (670 m(2)/g), small diameter (120 nm) and uniform pore size (2.5 nm) that facilitated the effective encapsulation of 5-fluorouracil within HMSNs, achieving a high loading capacity of 194.5 mg(5-FU)/g(HMSNs). The HMSNs were non-cytotoxic to colorectal cancer cells SW480 and can be bioconjugated with Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) for efficient and specific cell internalization. The high specificity and excellent targeting performance of EGF grafted HMSNs have demonstrated that they can become potential intracellular drug delivery vehicles for colorectal cancers via EGF-EGFR interaction.
