Abstract
Silver and gold nanoparticles have found extensive biomedical applications due to their strong localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) and intriguing plasmonic properties. This review article focuses on the correlation among particle geometry, plasmon properties and biomedical applications. It discusses how particle shape and size are tailored via controllable synthetic approaches, and how plasmonic properties are tuned by particle shape and size, which are embodied by nanospheres, nanorods, nanocubes, nanocages, nanostars and core-shell composites. This article summarizes the design strategies for the use of silver and gold nanoparticles in plasmon-enhanced fluorescence, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), electroluminescence, and photoelectrochemistry. It especially discusses how to use plasmonic nanoparticles to construct optical probes including colorimetric, SERS and plasmonic fluorescence probes (labels/reporters). It also demonstrates the employment of Ag and Au nanoparticles in polymer- and paper-based microfluidic devices for point-of-care testing (POCT). In addition, this article highlights how to utilize plasmonic nanoparticles for in vitro and in vivo bio-imaging based on SERS, fluorescence, photoacoustic and dark-field models. Finally, this article shows perspectives in plasmon-enhanced photothermal and photodynamic therapy.

Abstract
Rapid detection of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is pivotal for the early screening of prostate cancer (PCa). Here, we devise a one-step, amplification-free fluorescent detection strategy for PSA, employing the trans-cleavage principle of a CRISPR-Cas12a-aptamer system. This method offers a linear range of 0.31-5 ng mL-1 and a detection limit of 0.16 ng mL-1. The high-confidence quantification of PSA is demonstrated through the analysis of real samples, effectively distinguishing between PCa patients and healthy individuals.

Abstract
A closed bipolar electrochemiluminescence (BP-ECL) platform for sensitive prostate specific antigen (PSA) detection was proposed based on a novel synergistic signal amplification strategy. Specifically, glucose oxidase-loaded Cu-based metal-organic frameworks (Cu-MOFs/GOx) as bifunctional probes were bridged on the anodic interface with the target PSA as the intermediate unit. In virtue of the large loading capacity of Cu-MOFs, a large amount of a co-reactant, i.e., H2O2 in this L-012-based ECL system and gluconic acid were generated on the anodic pole in the presence of glucose. The generated gluconic acid could effectively degrade the Cu-MOFs to release Cu2+ which greatly accelerates the formation of highly active intermediates from co-reactant H2O2, boosting the ECL intensity. As for the cathodic pole, K3Fe(CN)6 with a lower reduction potential is used to reduce the driving voltage and speed up the reaction rate, further strengthening the ECL intensity. Thanks to the synergistic signal amplification effect at both two electrode poles of the BP-ECL system, highly sensitive detection of PSA was realized with a detection limit of 5.0 × 10-14 g/mL and a wide linear range of 1.0 × 10-13-1.0 × 10-7 g/mL. The strategy provides a novel way for signal amplification in the BP-ECL biosensing field.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the major killers across the globe. According to the WHO, more than 10 million people succumbed to cancer in the year 2020 alone. The early detection of cancer is key to reducing the mortality rate. In low- and medium-income countries, the screening facilities are limited due to a scarcity of resources and equipment. Paper-based microfluidics provide a platform for a low-cost, biodegradable micro-total analysis system (µTAS) that can be used for the detection of critical biomarkers for cancer screening. This work aims to review and provide a perspective on various available paper-based methods for cancer screening. The work includes an overview of paper-based sensors, the analytes that can be detected and the detection, and readout methods used.

Abstract
This manuscript reports on a simple paper-based bienzymatic colorimetric assay for sarcosine as an important urinary biomarker of prostate cancer. All required assay reagents are pre-deposited on hydrophilic filter paper spots surrounded by a hydrophobic barrier. Sarcosine in the sample solution is selectively oxidized in the presence of sarcosine oxidase (SOx), resulting in the formation of hydrogen peroxide, which is subsequently detected through the horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-catalyzed conversion of the colorless indicator 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) into its blue-colored oxidation product. By the modification of the paper with positively charged poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH), a linear response to sarcosine between 0 and 10 μM and a significant lowering of the limit of detection (LOD) (0.6 μM) compared to the unmodified paper substrate (12.6 μM) has been achieved. The improvement of the LOD was attributed to the fact that the presence of the polymer limits the enzyme-driven colorimetric reaction to the surface of the paper substrate, resulting in stronger color development. In experiments in artificial urine matrix, the bicarbonate anion was identified as an inhibitor of the colorimetric reaction. This inhibition was successfully eliminated through on-device sample pH adjustments with pH-buffer components pre-deposited onto assay devices. The LOD for sarcosine achieved in artificial urine matrix (2.5 μM) is below the 5 μM threshold value for this urinary biomarker required for diagnostic purposes. Finally, good selectivity over all 20 natural amino acids and satisfactory long-term storage stability of reagent-modified paper substrates at - 20 °C for a period of 50 days were confirmed.

Abstract
The detection of trypsin and its inhibitor is significantly important for both clinical diagnosis and disease treatment. Herein, we demonstrate a hydrogel-assisted paper-based lateral flow sensor for the detection of trypsin and its inhibitor for the first time. The gelatin hydrogel is hydrolyzed based on the gel-to-sol transition in the presence of trypsin, which results in the release of the trapped water molecules in the gelatin hydrogel. By placing one end of a pH indicator strip onto the hydrolyzed gelatin hydrogel, water is flowing along the pH indicator strip. However, in the absence of trypsin, water cannot flow along the pH indicator strip as the water molecules are trapped in the gelatin hydrogel. The detection limit of the system reaches as low as 1.0 × 10-6 mg/mL, and it is also applied to the quantitative detection of trypsin in human serum. In addition, the detection of a clinical drug aprotinin that is an inhibitor of trypsin is also successfully achieved. Noteworthy, only the gelatin hydrogel, pH indicator strip, and PS substrate are needed to fulfill the detection of trypsin without the need of other chemicals or reagents. Overall, we develop a particularly simple, elegant, robust, competitive, high-throughput, and low-cost approach for the rapid and label-free detection of trypsin and its inhibitor, which is very promising in the development of commercial products for sensing, diagnostic, and pharmaceutical applications. Besides, the hydrogel-assisted paper-based lateral flow sensor can also be employed to detect other analytes of interest by use of different stimuli-responsive hydrogel systems.

Abstract
This paper describes the use of fused deposition modeling (FDM) printing to fabricate paper-based analytical devices (PAD) with three-dimensional (3D) features, which is termed as 3D-PAD. Material depositions followed by heat reflow is a standard approach for the fabrication of PAD. Such devices are primarily two-dimensional (2D) and can hold only a limited amount of liquid samples in the device. This constraint can pose problems when the sample consists of organic solvents that have low interfacial energies with the hydrophobic barriers. To overcome this limitation, we developed a method to fabricate PAD integrated with 3D features (vertical walls as an example) by FDM 3D printing. 3D-PADs were fabricated using two types of thermoplastics. One thermoplastic had a low melting point that formed hydrophobic barriers upon penetration, and another thermoplastic had a high melting point that maintained 3D features on the filter paper without reflowing. We used polycaprolactone (PCL) for the former, and polylactic acid (PLA) for the latter. Both PCL and PLA were printed with FDM without gaps at the interface, and the resulting paper-based devices possessed hydrophobic barriers consisting of PCL seamlessly integrated with vertical features consisting of PLA. We validated the capability of 3D-PAD to hold 30 μL of solvents (ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, and acetone), all of which would not be retained on conventional PADs fabricated with solid wax printers. To highlight the importance of containing an increased amount of liquid samples, a colorimetric assay for the formation of dimethylglyoxime (DMG)-Ni (II) was demonstrated using two volumes (10 μL and 30 μL) of solvent-based dimethylglyoxime (DMG). FDM printing of 3D-PAD enabled the facile construction of 3D structures integrated with PAD, which would find applications in paper-based chemical and biological assays requiring organic solvents.

Abstract
Biosensors are essential tools which have been traditionally used to monitor environmental pollution and detect the presence of toxic elements and biohazardous bacteria or virus in organic matter and biomolecules for clinical diagnostics. In the last couple of decades, the scientific community has witnessed their widespread application in the fields of military, health care, industrial process control, environmental monitoring, food-quality control, and microbiology. Biosensor technology has greatly evolved from in vitro studies based on the biosensing ability of organic beings to the highly sophisticated world of nanofabrication-enabled miniaturized biosensors. The incorporation of nanotechnology in the vast field of biosensing has led to the development of novel sensors and sensing mechanisms, as well as an increase in the sensitivity and performance of the existing biosensors. Additionally, the nanoscale dimension further assists the development of sensors for rapid and simple detection in vivo as well as the ability to probe single biomolecules and obtain critical information for their detection and analysis. However, the major drawbacks of this include, but are not limited to, potential toxicities associated with the unavoidable release of nanoparticles into the environment, miniaturization-induced unreliability, lack of automation, and difficulty of integrating the nanostructured-based biosensors, as well as unreliable transduction signals from these devices. Although the field of biosensors is vast, we intend to explore various nanotechnology-enabled biosensors as part of this review article and provide a brief description of their fundamental working principles and potential applications. The article aims to provide the reader a holistic overview of different nanostructures which have been used for biosensing purposes along with some specific applications in the field of cancer detection and the Internet of things (IoT), as well as a brief overview of machine-learning-based biosensing.

Abstract
This paper introduces a novel potential-resolved paper-based biosensor for simultaneous detection of multiple microRNAs (miRNAs) (taking miRNA-155 and miRNA-126 as examples) based on the bipolar electrode (BPE) electrochemiluminescence (ECL) strategy. The proposed multiple-channel paper-based sensing microfluidic platform was prepared by wax-printing technology, screen-printing method, and in situ Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) growth to form hydrophilic areas, hydrophobic boundaries, waterproof electronic bridge, driving electrode regions, and parallel bipolar electrode regions. CdTe quantum dots (QDs)-H2 and Au@g-C3N4 nanosheets (NSs)-DNA1 were used as dual electrochemiluminescence signal probes, and carboxylated Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles existed as carriers. CdTe QDs-H2/S2O82- and Au@g-C3N4 NSs-DNA1/S2O82- could exhibit two strong and stable ECL emissions at a drive voltage of 9 and 12 V, respectively, which can be used as effective potential-resolved signal tags. In addition, the proposed three-dimensional (3D) DNA nanomachine model and the target miRNA cycle strategy were used to achieve double amplification of electrochemiluminescence intensity. More importantly, the combination of the bipolar electrode system and the potential-resolved multitarget electrochemiluminescence method can greatly reduce the spatial interference between substances. The prepared ECL biosensor showed a favorable linear response for the detection of miRNA-155 and miRNA-126 with relatively low detection limits of 5.7 and 4.2 fM, respectively. With excellent sensitivity, the strategy may provide an efficient method for clinical application, especially in detection of trace multiple targets.

Abstract
Applications of electrochemical detection methods in microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs) has revolutionized the area of point-of-care (POC) testing towards highly sensitive and selective quantification of various (bio)chemical analytes in a miniaturized, low-coat, rapid, and user-friendly manner. Shortly after the initiation, these relatively new modulations of μPADs, named as electrochemical paper-based analytical devices (ePADs), gained widespread popularity within the POC research community thanks to the inherent advantages of both electrochemical sensing and usage of paper as a suitable substrate for POC testing platforms. Even though general aspects of ePADs such as applications and fabrication techniques, have already been reviewed multiple times in the literature, herein, we intend to provide a critical engineering insight into the area of ePADs by focusing particularly on the practical strategies utilized to enhance their analytical performance (i.e. sensitivity), while maintaining the desired simplicity and efficiency intact. Basically, the discussed strategies are driven by considering the parameters potentially affecting the generated electrochemical signal in the ePADs. Some of these parameters include the type of filter paper, electrode fabrication methods, electrode materials, fluid flow patterns, etc. Besides, the limitations and challenges associated with the development of ePADs are discussed, and further insights and directions for future research in this field are proposed.

Firstly, the nano-components of the ECL sensing system are discussed. The construction and signal amplification methods of the nanosensing system are emphasized. Secondly, the high-efficiency cancer identification strategies are presented, including protein tumor marker detection, nucleic acid assay, cancer cell identification and exosome detection. The recent advances in representative examples of ECL nanosenors in cancer diagnosis are highlighted, including high-throughput ECL analysis, in situ assay, visual ECL detection, single-cell imaging diagnosis, and so on. Finally, the challenges are featured based on the recent development of the ECL nanosensing system in the clinical diagnosis. The ECL nanosensors provide effective and reliable analytical methods and open new paths for cancer diagnosis. It is noteworthy that the prospects of the ECL nanosensing system in clinical diagnosis are instructive to the developments of other nanosensor research.

Abstract
A wide range of microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs) have been developed in the last decade. Despite this, the quality of colorimetric analysis has not substantially improved as the data is vulnerable to heterogeneous color distribution (e.g., coffee ring effects), non-uniform shapes of colored detection area, and noise from the underlying paper structure. These limitations are here addressed by a colorimetric method to quantify freely discharged dye on paper substrate, without the need for a defined channel or hydrophobic barrier. For accurate quantification, colorimetric absorbance values are calculated for each pixel based on the recorded RGB values and noise from the paper structure eliminated, to extract accurate absorbance information at the pixel level. Total analyte quantity is then calculated through the conversion of absorbance values into quantity values for each pixel followed by integration across the entire image. The resulting quantity is shown to be independent of the shape of the applied colored dye spot, with a cross, circle or rod shape all giving the same quantity information. The approach is applied to a capillary-based potassium-selective sensor, where the sample solution is loaded with the dye thioflavin T (ThT) obtained by quantitative exchange with K+ in a sensing capillary, which is discharged onto a bare paper substrate without any channels. The resulting dye quantity is successfully obtained by flatbed scanner and smartphone. The successful automated computation of colorimetric data on μPADs will help realize simpler paper-based assay and reaction systems that should be more applicable to addressing real world analytical problems.

Abstract
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) based biosensors are recognized to be a next generation building block for ultrasensitive and fast biosensing systems. This article starting with a brief history on CNTs provides an overview on the recent expansion of research in the field of CNT-based biosensors. This is followed by the discussion on structure and properties related to CNTs. Furthermore, the basic and some newly developed synthetic methods of CNTs are summarized. In this chapter, we used polyaniline cobalt multiwalled CNTs to immobilize β-galactosidase, by adopting both noncovalent and covalent strategies. Herein, the methodologies of both techniques have been discussed in detail. The η (effectiveness factor) values for nanocomposite bound β-galactosidase by physical adsorption and covalent method were calculated to be 0.93 and 0.97, respectively. The covalently bound β-galactosidase retained 92% activity even after its 10th successive reuse as compared to the adsorbed enzyme which exhibited only 74% of its initial activity. CNT armored enzymes demonstrated remarkably high catalytic stability at both sides of temperature and pH-optima along with easy recovery from the reaction medium which can be utilized in various biotechnological applications. Lastly, the scientific and technological challenges in the field are discussed at the end of this chapter.

Abstract
Multisensor detectors have merits of low cost, compact size, and capability of supplying accurate and reliable information otherwise hard to obtain by any single sensors. They are therefore highly desired in various applications. Despite the advantages and needs, they face great challenges in technique especially when integrating sensors with different sensing principles. To bridge the gap between the demand and technique, we here demonstrated an integration of electrochemical and colorimetric sensors with a webcam readout for multiple gas detection. Designed with two parallel gas channels but independent sensor cells, the dual-sensor detector could simultaneously detect each gas from their gas mixture by analysis of the group photo of the two sensors. Using Ag electro-dissolution as reporter, the bipolar electrochemical sensor achieved quantitative analysis for the first time thanks to application of pulse voltage. The sacrificed Ag layer used in the bipolar electrochemical (EC) sensor was recycled from CD, which further decreased the sensor cost and supplied a new way of CD recycling. The EC O2 sensor response, edge displacement of Ag layer due to electrochemical dissolution, has a linear relationship with O2 concentration ranging from 0 to 30% and has good selectivity to common oxidative gases. The colorimetric NO2 sensor linearly responded to NO2 concentrations ranging from 0 to 230 ppb with low detection limit of 10 ppb, good selectivity, and humidity tolerance. This integration method could be extended to integrating other gas sensors.

Abstract
Paper-based sensors offer an affordable yet powerful platform for field and point-of-care (POC) testing due to their self-pumping ability and utility for many different analytical measurements. When combined with electrochemical detection using small and portable electronics, sensitivity and selectivity of the paper devices can be improved over naked eye detection without sacrificing portability. Herein, we review how the field of electrochemical paper-based analytical devices (ePADs) has grown since it was introduced a decade ago. We start by reviewing fabrication methods relevant to ePADs with more focus given to the electrode fabrication, which is fundamental for electrochemical sensing. Multiple sensing approaches applicable to ePADs are then discussed and evaluated to present applicability, advantages and challenges associated with each approach. Recent applications of ePADs in the fields of clinical diagnostics, environmental testing, and food analysis are also presented. Finally, we discuss how the current ePAD technologies have progressed to meet the analytical and practical specifications required for field and/or POC applications, as well as challenges and outlook.

Abstract
Analysis of food, pharmaceutical, and environmental compounds is an inevitable issue to evaluate quality of the compounds used in human life. Quality of drinking water, food products, and pharmaceutical compounds is directly associated with human health. Presence of forbidden additives in food products, toxic compounds in water samples and drugs with low quality lead to important problems for human health. Therefore, attention to analytical strategy for investigation of quality of food, pharmaceutical, and environmental compounds and monitoring presence of forbidden compounds in materials used by humans has increased in recent years. Analytical methods help to identify and quantify both permissible and unauthorized compounds present in the materials used in human daily life. Among analytical methods, electrochemical methods have been shown to have more advantages compared to other analytical methods due to their portability and low cost. Most of big companies have applied this type of analytical methods because of their fast and selective analysis. Due to simple operation and high diversity of electroanalytical sensors, these types of sensors are expected to be the future generation of analytical systems. Therefore, many scientists and researchers have focused on designing and fabrication of electroanalytical sensors with good selectivity and high sensitivity for different types of compounds such as drugs, food, and environmental pollutants. In this paper, we described the mechanism and different examples of DNA, enzymatic and electro-catalytic methods for electroanalytical determination of drug, food and environmental compounds.

Abstract
This work reports an electrofluorochromic strategy on the basis of electric field control of fluorescent signal generation on bipolar electrodes (BPEs) for visualizing cancer cell surface glycoprotein (mucin 1). The device included two separate cells: anodic sensing cell and cathodic reporting cell, which were connected by a screen-printing electrode patterned on poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) membrane. In the sensing cell, anti-MUC1 antibody immobilized on a chitosan-multiwalled carbon nanotube (CS-MWCNT)-modified anodic BPE channel was used for capturing mucin-1 (MUC1) or MCF-7 cancer cells. Then ferrocene (Fc)-labeled mucin 1 aptamers were introduced through hybridization. Under an applied voltage, the ferrocene was oxidized and the electroactive molecules of 1,4-benzoquinone (BQ) in the cathodic reporting cell were reduced according to electroneutrality. This produced a strongly basic 1,4-benzoquinone anion radical (BQ•-), which turned on the fluorescence of pH-responsive fluorescent molecules of (2-(2-(4-hydroxystyryl)-6-methyl-4 H-pyran-4-ylidene)malononitrile) (SPM) coexisting in the cathode reporting cell for both spectrophotometric detection and imaging. This strategy allowed sensitive detection of MUC1 at a concentration down to 10 fM and was capable of detecting a minimum of three MCF-7 cells. Furthermore, the amount of MUC1 on MCF-7 cells was calculated to be 6.02 × 104 molecules/cell. Our strategy also had the advantages of high temporal and spatial resolution, short response time, and high luminous contrast and is of great significance for human health and the promotion of life science development.

Abstract
Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) have been widely used in clinical examination, food safety, and environmental analyses. However, they still face a great challenge in designing a device for a point-of-care test (POCT) due to its bulk optical detector and complexity. Herein an electrophoresis titration (ET) model of a moving redox boundary (MRB) was proposed for constructing an ET-ELISA chip of a POCT just with sextuplet electrode pairs and laminated cells. The chip had an anodic well, middle well, and cathode well which were connected by microchannels. The ELISA process was conducted in the bottom of the middle well, where horseradish peroxidase (HRP) catalyzed 3,3',5,5'-tetra-methyl benzidine (TMB) as a blue TMB dimer with two positive charges. Under an electrical field of 29 V, the TMB dimer migrated into the titration channel and reacted with the ascorbic acid, creating an MRB. The MRB motion was a function of antigen content, indicating a visual distance-based assay. As a proof of concept, a C-reactive protein was chosen as a model antigen. The experiments systemically validated the ET-ELISA model and method. Particularly, the chip was smartphone-detected, traditional power supply free, and did not use sulfuric acid used in typical ELISA, making the ET-ELISA method extremely simple, portable, and safe. The ET-ELISA has great potential to visual and portable ELISA in clinical medicine, the environment, and food safety immunoassay.

Sensitivity enhancement of cloth-based closed bipolar electrochemiluminescence glucose sensor via electrode decoration with chitosan/multi-walled carbon nanotubes/graphene quantum dots-gold nanoparticles. Biosens Bioelectron 2019; 130:55-64. [PMID: 30731346 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2019.01.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 51] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2018] [Revised: 12/11/2018] [Accepted: 01/10/2019] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
In this work, a novel facile closed bipolar electrochemiluminescence (C-BP-ECL) sensor has been developed for highly sensitive detection of glucose based on the integration of chitosan (CS), poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride)-functioned multi-walled carbon nanotubes (PDDA-MWCNTs) and graphene quantum dots-gold nanoparticles (GQDs-AuNPs) on the wax/carbon ink-screen-printed cloth-based device. When CS, PDDA-MWCNTs and GQDs-AuNPs are successively decorated onto the cathode of closed bipolar electrode (C-BPE), the C-BPE anode can emit much stronger C-BP-ECL signals. Moreover, the cathodic decoration of the C-BPE can generate a stronger ECL signal in comparison with its anodic decoration. Under optimized conditions, glucose can be detected in the range of 0.1-5000 μM, and the limit of detection is estimated to be 64 nM, which is about three orders of magnitude lower than that in case of the bare C-BPE cathode (31 μM). It has been shown that the proposed sensor has high detection sensitivity, wide dynamic range, and as well acceptable reproducibility, selectivity and stability. Finally, the applicability and validity of the C-BP-ECL sensor are demonstrated for the detection of glucose in human serum samples. We believe that this novel highly-sensitive sensor will have potential applications in various areas such as clinical diagnosis, food analysis and environmental monitoring.

Abstract
In this work, novel multifunctional patchy gold coated Fe3O4 hybrid nanoparticles (PG-Fe3O4 NPs) have been successfully synthesized in aqueous medium via a facile adsorption-reduction method. A rational formation mechanism has been proposed by monitoring the morphological evolution. The PG-Fe3O4 NPs retained the good magnetic property and exhibited excellent catalytical effeciency towards the electrochemical reduction of hydrogen peroxide. Chronoamperometric and amperometric experiments indicated a relatively high catalytic rate constant of 3.13 × 105 M-1 s-1, a high sensitivity of 578.87 µA mM-1 cm-2 and a low Michaelis-Menten constant of 462 µM. Meanwhile, the introduction of patchy gold could help biofunctionalization via Au-S bond for different biodetection and biosensing purposes. Here, as an example, thiol-terminated aptamers were immobilized onto the patchy gold part as a signal probe to detect carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). A related paper-based bipolar electrode-electrochemiluminescence (pBPE-ECL) aptasensor was fabricated as the low-cost, disposable and miniature platform. To improve the sensitivity, Au nanodendrites were electrodeposited at the BPE cathode as the matrix for Apt1 immobilization. This aptasensor showed a wide linear range of 0.1 pg mL-1-15 ng mL-1 with a low detection limit of 0.03 pg mL-1, remaining competitive against other ones, and also demonstrating the PG-Fe3O4 NPs have promising potential for catalysis and bioassays.

Abstract
We suggest an electrochemiluminescence (ECL)-sensing platform driven by ecofriendly, disposable, and miniaturized reverse electrodialysis (RED) patches as an electric power source. The flexible RED patches composed of ion-exchange membranes (IEMs) can produce voltage required for ECL sensing by simply choosing the appropriate number of IEMs and the ratio of salt concentrations. We integrate the RED patch with a bipolar electrode on the microfluidic chip to demonstrate the proof-of-concept, i.e., glucose detection in the range of 0.5-10 mM by observing ECL emissions with naked eyes. The miniaturized RED-powered biosensing system is widely applicable for electrochemical-sensing platforms. This is expected to be a solution for practical availability of battery-free electrochemical sensors for disease diagnosis in developing countries.

Abstract
Development of a rapid and sensitive method for Aβ(1-42) aggregation detection is of great importance to overcome the limitations of conventional techniques. In this study, we developed a label-free paper-based electrochemiluminescence sensor for amyloid-β aggregation detection toward potential diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The paper-based chip used in the system serves as a low-cost and disposable detection method. In this detection platform, the bonding of [Ru(phen)2dppz]2+ to Aβ(1-42) aggregates results in enhanced electrochemiluminescence due to the change in the polarity of the microenvironment when [Ru(phen)2dppz]2+ intercalated into the β-sheets during oligomerization. The oligomerization process of Aβ(1-42) can be monitored in real time by the novel method, and as low as 100 pM equivalent monomer concentration of Aβ(1-42) could be detected simultaneously. In addition, the cerebrospinal fluid of transgenic AD model mice was tested by this method, which is highly consistent with genetic identification. In addition, we demonstrated that this detection platform could be a potential new method for the screening of Aβ(1-42) aggregation inhibitors, highlighting the practical application capacity of this platform. The platform is label free, low cost and sensitive. Therefore, the proposed platform holds great promise for the diagnosis of AD.

Abstract
Aiming to overcome the obstacles of power supply requirement and chip usefulness in practice, a low-cost and convenient portable electrochemical sensing device is introduced for the first time, featuring bipolar electrode system, LED read-out, laminated paper-based devices, and low-voltage button cells. The electric circuits of this practical device are constructed on laminating films with copper and conductive carbon tapes, and the reservoirs facilitating chemical reactions are made with chromatography paper. The device is sensitive to electrochemical responses, validated by the demonstrative hydrogen peroxide and enzyme-assisted glucose detection. The business-card-size chip achieves sensitive analyte detection by naked eyes as well as further image processing in both laboratory samples and human serum samples testing, featuring detection limit as low as 1.79 μM and a dynamic range from 10 μM to 10 mM. This new practical design of point-of-care sensing chip entails the properties of facile fabrication, simple usage, high robustness, low power consumption, and accurate sensing showing the attainability of fabricating a useful and portable analytical device.

Abstract
Exosomes, as potential cancer diagnostic markers have received close attention in recent years. However, there is still a lack of simple and convenient methods to detect and quantitate exosomes. Herein, we used a simple paper-supported aptasensor based on luminescence resonance energy transfer (LRET) from upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) to gold nanorods (Au NRs) for the accessible determination of exosomes. When exosomes are present, the two sections of the aptamer can combine with the CD63 protein on the surface of exosomes and form a conjugation to close the distance between UCNPs and Au NRs, which initiates the LRET and promotes luminescence quenching. These variations can be monitored by the homemade image system, and the green channel intensities of obtained colored images were extracted with photoshop software to quantify the luminescence. As a result, the quenching of the luminescence of the UCNPs is linearly correlated to the concentration of the exosomes (in the range of 1.0 × 104 ~ 1.0 × 108 particles/μL), enabling the detection and quantification of the exosomes. Such approach can reach a low detection limit of exosomes (1.1 × 103 particles/μL) and effectively reduce the background signal by using UCNPs as a luminescent material. This study provides an efficient and practical approach to the detection of exosomes, which should lead to point-of-care testing in clinical applications.

Abstract
A microfluidic paper analytical device (μPAD) was created for the sensitive quantification of cancer antigens, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9), from human whole blood and serum, toward diagnosis and prognosis of colorectal cancer. Anti-CEA and anti-CA 19-9 antibodies were covalently linked to submicron, fluorescent polystyrene particles, loaded, and then dried in the center of the μPAD channel. CEA- or CA 19-9-spiked blood or serum samples were loaded to the inlet of μPAD, and subsequent immunoagglutination changed the fluorescent scatter signals upon ultraviolet (UV) excitation. The total assay time was about 1 min. Detection limits were 1 pg/mL for CEA and 0.1 U/mL for CA 19-9 from both 10% diluted blood and undiluted serum. The use of UV excitation and subsequent fluorescence scattering enabled much higher double-normalized intensities (up to 1.28-3.51, compared with 1.067 with the elastic Mie scatter detection), successful detection in the presence of blood or serum, and distinct multiplex assays with minimum cross-reaction of antibodies. The results with undiluted serum showed the larger dynamic range and smaller standard errors, which can be attributed to the presence of serum proteins, functioning as a stabilizer or a passivating protein for the particles within paper fibers.

Abstract
Recently, paper substrates have attracted tremendous interest from both academia and industry. Not only is paper highly abundant and portable, it is lightweight, disposable, easy-to-use, and can be rolled or folded into 3D configurations. More importantly, with a unique porous bulk structure and rough and absorptive surface properties, the construction of nanomaterials-functionalized cellulose has enabled cellulose paper to be applied for point-of-care (POC) paper devices with reasonably good performance at low cost. In this review, the latest advances in the modification of nanomaterials on paper cellulose are summed up. To begin with, the attractive properties of paper-based analytical devices are described. Then, fabricating methods for the functionalization of cellulose with diverse materials, including noble metals, bimetals, metal oxides, carbon nanomaterials, and molecular imprinting polymer nanoparticles, as well as their applications, are introduced in detail. Finally, the current critical issues, challenges, and future prospectives for exploring a paper-based analytical system based on nanomaterials-modified cellulose are discussed. It is believed that more strategies will be developed in the future to construct nanomaterials-functionalized cellulose, paving the way for the mass production of POC paper devices with a satisfactory performance.
