[PMID: 38725991 PMCID: PMC11079243 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2024.1319830] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2023] [Accepted: 04/11/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Bacteriophages, also known as phages, are viruses that replicate in bacteria and archaea. Phages were initially discovered as antimicrobial agents, and they have been used as therapeutic agents for bacterial infection in a process known as "phage therapy." Recently, phages have been investigated as functional nanomaterials in a variety of areas, as they can function not only as therapeutic agents but also as biosensors and tissue regenerative materials. Phages are nontoxic to humans, and they possess self-assembled nanostructures and functional properties. Additionally, phages can be easily genetically modified to display specific peptides or to screen for functional peptides via phage display. Here, we demonstrated the application of phage nanomaterials in the context of tissue engineering, sensing, and probing.

Non-intrusive quality appraisal of differentiation-induced cardiovascular stem cells using E-Nose sensor technology. Biosens Bioelectron 2024; 246:115838. [PMID: 38042052 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115838] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2023] [Revised: 10/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/11/2023] [Indexed: 12/04/2023]
Abstract
Stem cell technology holds immense potential for revolutionizing medicine, particularly in regenerative treatment for heart disease. The unique capacity of stem cells to differentiate into diverse cell types offers promise in repairing damaged tissues and implanting organs. Ensuring the quality of differentiated cells, essential for specific functions, demands in-depth analysis. However, this process consumes time and incurs substantial costs while invasive methods may alter stem cell features during differentiation and deplete cell numbers. To address these challenges, we propose a non-invasive strategy, using cellular respiration, to assess the quality of differentiation-induced stem cells, notably cardiovascular stem cells. This evaluation employs an electronic nose (E-Nose) and neural pattern separation (NPS). Our goal is to assess differentiation-induced cardiac stem cells (DICs) quality through E-Nose data analysis and compare it with standard commercial human cells (SCHCs). Sensitivity and specificity were evaluated by interacting SCHCs and DICs with the E-Nose, achieving over 90% classification accuracy. Employing selective combinations optimized by NPS, E-Nose successfully classified all six cell types. Consequently, the relative similarity among DICs like cardiomyocytes, endothelial cells with SCHCs was established relied on comparing response data from the E-Nose sensor without resorting to complex evaluations.

Biosens Bioelectron 2023; 237:115519. [PMID: 37437455 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115519] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2023] [Revised: 06/14/2023] [Accepted: 07/05/2023] [Indexed: 07/14/2023]
Abstract
Self-assembled functional nanomaterials with electromagnetic hot spots are crucial and highly desirable in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). Due to its versatile biological scaffold, the M13 phage has been employed to produce novel nano-building blocks and devices. In this study, we propose a novel M13 phage-based SERS nanocarrier, that utilizes the pVIII capsid in M13 to conjugate Au@Ag core-shell nanorod (Au@AgNR) with linker carboxy-PEG-thiol (M13-Au@AgNR) and the pIII capsid to specifically target Escherichia coli (E. coli). The M13-Au@AgNR@DTTC (3,3'- diethylthiocarbocyanine iodide) SERS probe was used to detect E. coli in a concentration range of 6 to 6 × 105 cfu/mL, achieving a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.5 cfu/mL. The proposed SERS platform was also tested in real samples, showing good recoveries (92%-114.3%) and a relative standard deviation (RSD) of 1.2%-4.7%. Furthermore, the system demonstrated high antibacterial efficiency against E. coli, approximately 90%, as measured by the standard plate-count method. The investigation provides an effective strategy for in vitro bacteria detection and inactivation.

Abstract
Bacteriophages have emerged as versatile tools in the field of bioengineering, with enormous potential in tissue engineering, vaccine development, and immunotherapy. The genetic makeup of phages can be harnessed for the development of novel DNA vaccines and antigen display systems, as they can provide a highly organized and repetitive presentation of antigens to immune cells. Bacteriophages have opened new possibilities for the targeting of specific molecular determinants of cancer cells. Phages can be used as anticancer agents and carriers of imaging molecules and therapeutics. In this review, we explored the role of bacteriophages and bacteriophage engineering in targeted cancer therapy. The question of how the engineered bacteriophages can interact with the biological and immunological systems is emphasized to comprehend the underlying mechanism of phage use in cancer immunotherapy. The effectiveness of phage display technology in identifying high-affinity ligands for substrates, such as cancer cells and tumor-associated molecules, and the emerging field of phage engineering and its potential in the development of effective cancer treatments are discussed. We also highlight phage usage in clinical trials as well as the related patents. This review provides a new insight into engineered phage-based cancer vaccines.

Abstract
Viruses are changing the biosensing and biomedicine landscape due to their multivalency, orthogonal reactivities, and responsiveness to genetic modifications. As the most extensively studied phage model for constructing a phage display library, M13 phage has received much research attention as building blocks or viral scaffolds for various applications including isolation/separation, sensing/probing, and in vivo imaging. Through genetic engineering and chemical modification, M13 phages can be functionalized into a multifunctional analysis platform with various functional regions conducting their functionality without mutual disturbance. Its unique filamentous morphology and flexibility also promoted the analytical performance in terms of target affinity and signal amplification. In this review, we mainly focused on the application of M13 phage in the analytical field and the benefit it brings. We also introduced several genetic engineering and chemical modification approaches for endowing M13 with various functionalities, and summarized some representative applications using M13 phages to construct isolation sorbents, biosensors, cell imaging probes, and immunoassays. Finally, current issues and challenges remaining in this field were discussed and future perspectives were also proposed.

Abstract
Techniques for detecting chemicals dispersed at low concentrations in air continue to evolve. These techniques can be applied not only to manage the quality of agricultural products using a post-ripening process but also to establish a safety prevention system by detecting harmful gases and diagnosing diseases. Recently, techniques for rapid response to various chemicals and detection in complex and noisy environments have been developed using M13 bacteriophage-based sensors. In this review, M13 bacteriophage-based multi-array colourimetric sensors for the development of an electronic nose is discussed. The self-templating process was adapted to fabricate a colour band structure consisting of an M13 bacteriophage. To detect diverse target chemicals, the colour band was utilised with wild and genetically engineered M13 bacteriophages to enhance their sensing abilities. Multi-array colourimetric sensors were optimised for application in complex and noisy environments based on simulation and deep learning analysis. The development of a multi-array colourimetric sensor platform based on the M13 bacteriophage is likely to result in significant advances in the detection of various harmful gases and the diagnosis of various diseases based on exhaled gas in the future.

Abstract
Artificial olfactory sensors that recognize patterns transmitted by olfactory receptors are emerging as a technology for monitoring volatile organic compounds. Advances in statistical processing methods and data processing technology have made it possible to classify patterns in sensor arrays. Moreover, biomimetic olfactory recognition sensors in the form of pattern recognition have been developed. Deep learning and artificial intelligence technologies have enabled the classification of pattern data from more sensor arrays, and improved artificial olfactory sensor technology is being developed with the introduction of artificial neural networks. An example of an artificial olfactory sensor is the electronic nose. It is an array of various types of sensors, such as metal oxides, electrochemical sensors, surface acoustic waves, quartz crystal microbalances, organic dyes, colorimetric sensors, conductive polymers, and mass spectrometers. It can be tailored depending on the operating environment and the performance requirements of the artificial olfactory sensor. This review compiles artificial olfactory sensor technology based on olfactory mechanisms. We introduce the mechanisms of artificial olfactory sensors and examples used in food quality and stability assessment, environmental monitoring, and diagnostics. Although current artificial olfactory sensor technology has several limitations and there is limited commercialization owing to reliability and standardization issues, there is considerable potential for developing this technology. Artificial olfactory sensors are expected to be widely used in advanced pattern recognition and learning technologies, along with advanced sensor technology in the future.

Abstract
There is a growing interest in electronic nose-based diagnostic systems that are fast and portable. However, existing technologies are suitable only for operation in the laboratory, making them difficult to apply in a rapid, non-face-to-face, and field-suitable manner. Here, we demonstrate a DNA-derived phage nose (D2pNose) as a portable respiratory disease diagnosis system requiring no pretreatment. D2pNose was produced based on phage colour films implanted with DNA sequences from mammalian olfactory receptor cells, and as a result, it possesses the comprehensive reactivity of these cells. The manipulated surface chemistry of the genetically engineered phages was verified through a correlation analysis between the calculated and the experimentally measured reactivity. Breaths from 31 healthy subjects and 31 lung cancer patients were collected and exposed to D2pNose without pretreatment. With the help of deep learning and neural pattern separation, D2pNose has achieved a diagnostic success rate of over 75% and a classification success rate of over 86% for lung cancer based on raw human breath. Based on these results, D2pNose can be expected to be directly applicable to other respiratory diseases.

Abstract
Conventional enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is commonly used for Ochratoxin A (OTA) screening, but it is limited by low sensitivity and harmful competing antigens of enzyme-OTA conjugates. Herein, a bifunctional M13 bacteriophage with OTA mimotopes fused on the p3 protein and biotin modified on major p8 proteins was introduced as an eco-friendly competing antigen and enzyme container for enhanced sensitivity. Mercaptopropionic acid-modified quantum dots (MPA-QDs), which are extremely sensitive to hydrogen peroxide, were chosen as fluorescent signal transducers that could manifest glucose oxidase-induced fluorescence quenching in the presence of glucose. On these bases, a highly sensitive and eco-friendly fluorescent immunoassay for OTA sensing was developed. Under optimized conditions, the proposed method demonstrates a good linear detection of OTA from 4.8 to 625 pg/mL and a limit of detection (LOD) of 5.39 pg/mL. The LOD is approximately 26-fold lower than that of a conventional horse radish peroxidase (HRP) based ELISA and six-fold lower than that of a GOx-OTA conjugate-based fluorescent ELISA. The proposed method also shows great specificity and accepted accuracy for analyzing OTA in real corn samples. The detection results are highly consistent with those obtained using the ultra-performance liquid chromatography-fluorescence detection method, indicating the high reliability of the proposed method for OTA detection. In conclusion, the proposed method is an excellent OTA screening platform over a conventional ELISA and can be easily extended for sensing other analytes by altering specific mimic peptide sequences in phages.

Abstract
The electronic nose is a reliable practical sensor device that mimics olfactory organs. Although numerous studies have demonstrated excellence in detecting various target substances with the help of ideal models, biomimetic approaches still suffer in practical realization because of the inability to mimic the signal processing performed by olfactory neural systems. Herein, we propose an electronic nose based on the programable surface chemistry of M13 bacteriophage, inspired by the neural mechanism of the mammalian olfactory system. The neural pattern separation (NPS) was devised to apply the pattern separation that operates in the memory and learning process of the brain to the electronic nose. We demonstrate an electronic nose in a portable device form, distinguishing polycyclic aromatic compounds (harmful in living environment) in an atomic-level resolution (97.5% selectivity rate) for the first time. Our results provide practical methodology and inspiration for the second-generation electronic nose development toward the performance of detection dogs (K9).

Abstract
Artificial olfactory systems are needed in various fields that require real-time monitoring, such as healthcare. This review introduces cases of detection of specific volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in a patient's exhaled breath and discusses trends in disease diagnosis technology development using artificial olfactory technology that analyzes exhaled human breath. We briefly introduce algorithms that classify patterns of odors (VOC profiles) and describe artificial olfactory systems based on nanosensors. On the basis of recently published research results, we describe the development trend of artificial olfactory systems based on the pattern-recognition gas sensor array technology and the prospects of application of this technology to disease diagnostic devices. Medical technologies that enable early monitoring of health conditions and early diagnosis of diseases are crucial in modern healthcare. By regularly monitoring health status, diseases can be prevented or treated at an early stage, thus increasing the human survival rate and reducing the overall treatment costs. This review introduces several promising technical fields with the aim of developing technologies that can monitor health conditions and diagnose diseases early by analyzing exhaled human breath in real time.

Abstract
Photonic pigment particles prepared via self-assembly have been suffering from their poor mechanical performances; i.e., they can easily be damaged and lose structural color under a compression force. This greatly limits their uses as mechanochromic pigments. Here, a nanoscale concentric lamellar structure of alternating glassy-rubbery microdomains is successfully created within photonic microparticles through a confined self-assembly and photo-cross-linking strategy. The glassy domain is composed of polystyrene, and cross-linked bottlebrush polydimethylsiloxane served as the supersoft elastic domain. The obtained photonic structure not only shows large deformation and visible color changes under a loaded compression force but also rapidly recovers to its original state in less than 1 s (∼0.16 s) upon unloading. Continuously loading-unloading micro compression test indicates that no obvious damage can be identified after 250 cycles, indicating the high durability of the pigments against deformation. These pigments with different reflected colors are simply obtained using bottlebrush block copolymer formulations with tunable weight percentages of polymer additives. The mechanical robust photonic pigments may be useful in many important applications.

Abstract
Ultratrace quantitative detection based on fluorescence is highly desirable for many important applications such as environmental monitoring or disease diagnosis, which however has remained a great challenge because of limited and irregular fluorescence responses to analytes at ultralow concentrations. Herein the problem is circumvented via local enrichment and detection of analytes within a microsensor, that is, photonic porous microspheres grafted with aggregation-induced emission gens (AIEgens). The obtained microspheres exhibit dual structural and molecular functions, namely, bright structural colors and strong fluorescence. Large fluorescence quenching induced by nitrophenol compounds in an aqueous environment is observed at ultralow concentrations (10-12-10-8 mol/L), enabling quantitative detection at a ppb level (ng/L). This is achieved within a porous structure with good connectivity between the nanopores to improve analyte diffusion, an internal layer of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) for analyte enrichment via hydrogen bonding, and homogeneous distribution of AIEgens within the PEO layer for enhanced fluorescence quenching. The fluorescent porous microspheres can be readily obtained in a single step templated by well-ordered water-in-oil-in-water double emulsion droplets with AIE amphiphilic bottlebrush block copolymers as the effective stabilizer.

SENSORS 2021; 21:s21030986. [PMID: 33540631 PMCID: PMC7867267 DOI: 10.3390/s21030986] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2021] [Revised: 01/25/2021] [Accepted: 01/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/03/2022]
Abstract
A single M13 bacteriophage color sensor was previously utilized for discriminating the geographical origins of agricultural products (garlic, onion, and perilla). The resulting discrimination accuracy was acceptable, ranging from 88.6% to 94.0%. To improve the accuracy further, the use of three separate M13 bacteriophage color sensors containing different amino acid residues providing unique individual color changes (Wild sensor: glutamic acid (E)-glycine (G)-aspartic acid (D), WHW sensor: tryptophan (W)-histidine (H)-tryptophan (W), 4E sensor: four repeating glutamic acids (E)) was proposed. This study was driven by the possibility of enhancing sample discrimination by combining mutually characteristic and complimentary RGB signals obtained from each color sensor, which resulted from dissimilar interactions of sample odors with the employed color sensors. When each color sensor was used individually, the discrimination accuracy based on support vector machine (SVM) ranged from 91.8–94.0%, 88.6–90.3%, and 89.8–92.1% for garlic, onion, and perilla samples, respectively. Accuracy improved to 98.0%, 97.5%, and 97.1%, respectively, by integrating all of the RGB signals acquired from the three color sensors. Therefore, the proposed strategy was effective for improving sample discriminability. To further examine the dissimilar responses of each color sensor to odor molecules, typical odor components in the samples (allyl disulfide, allyl methyl disulfide, and perillaldehyde) were measured using each color sensor, and differences in RGB signals were analyzed.

Abstract
The M13 bacteriophage, a nature-inspired environmentally friendly biomaterial, is used as a perovskite crystal growth template and a grain boundary passivator in perovskite solar cells. The amino groups and carboxyl groups of amino acids on the M13 bacteriophage surface function as Lewis bases, interacting with the perovskite materials. The M13 bacteriophage-added perovskite films show a larger grain size and reduced trap-sites compared with the reference perovskite films. In addition, the existence of the M13 bacteriophage induces light scattering effect, which enhances the light absorption particularly in the long-wavelength region around 825 nm. Both the passivation effect of the M13 bacteriophage coordinating to the perovskite defect sites and the light scattering effect intensify when the M13 virus-added perovskite precursor solution is heated at 90 °C prior to the film formation. Heating the solution denatures the M13 bacteriophage by breaking their inter- and intra-molecular bondings. The denatured M13 bacteriophage-added perovskite solar cells exhibit an efficiency of 20.1% while the reference devices give an efficiency of 17.8%. The great improvement in efficiency comes from all of the three photovoltaic parameters, namely short-circuit current, open-circuit voltage, and fill factor, which correspond to the perovskite grain size, trap-site passivation, and charge transport, respectively.

Abstract
To capture a broader scope of complex biological phenomena, alternatives to conventional sensing based on specificity for cell detection and characterization are needed. Pattern-recognition-based sensing is an analytical method designed to mimic mammalian sensory systems for analyte identification based on the pattern recognition of multivariate data, which are generated using an array of multiple probes that cross-reactively interact with analytes. This sensing approach is significantly different from conventional specific cell sensing based on highly specific probes, including antibodies against biomarkers. Encouraged by the advantages of this technique, such as the simplicity, rapidity, and tunability of the systems without requiring a priori knowledge of biomarkers, numerous sensor arrays have been developed over the past decade and used in a variety of cell sensing applications; these include disease diagnosis, drug discovery, and fundamental research. This review summarizes recent progress in pattern-recognition-based cell sensing, with a particular focus on guidelines for designing materials and arrays, techniques for analyzing response patterns, and applications of sensor systems that are focused primarily for the biomedical field.

Abstract
Bacteriophages are interesting entities on the border of biology and chemistry. In nature, they are bacteria parasites, while, after genetic manipulation, they gain new properties, e.g., selectively binding proteins. Owing to this, they may be applied as recognition elements in biosensors. Combining bacteriophages with different transducers can then result in the development of innovative sensor designs that may revolutionize bioanalytics and improve the quality of medical services. Therefore, here, we review the use of bacteriophages, or peptides from bacteriophages, as new sensing elements for the recognition of biomarkers and the construction of the highly effective diagnostics tools.

Abstract
M13 bacteriophage-based colorimetric sensors, especially multi-array sensors, have been successfully demonstrated to be a powerful platform for detecting extremely small amounts of target molecules. Colorimetric sensors can be fabricated easily using self-assembly of genetically engineered M13 bacteriophage which incorporates peptide libraries on its surface. However, the ability to discriminate many types of target molecules is still required. In this work, we introduce a statistical method to efficiently analyze a huge amount of numerical results in order to classify various types of target molecules. To enhance the selectivity of M13 bacteriophage-based colorimetric sensors, a multi-array sensor system can be an appropriate platform. On this basis, a pattern-recognizing multi-array biosensor platform was fabricated by integrating three types of sensors in which genetically engineered M13 bacteriophages (wild-, RGD-, and EEEE-type) were utilized as a primary building block. This sensor system was used to analyze a pattern of color change caused by a reaction between the sensor array and external substances, followed by separating the specific target substances by means of hierarchical cluster analysis. The biosensor platform could detect drug contaminants such as hormone drugs (estrogen) and antibiotics. We expect that the proposed biosensor system could be used for the development of a first-analysis kit, which would be inexpensive and easy to supply and could be applied in monitoring the environment and health care.

Abstract
While oncolytic vaccinia virus-based therapy has shown promising results for uncured patients with cancer, its effects on cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) remain unclear. Here, we evaluated the anti-cancer activity of the cancer-favoring oncolytic vaccinia virus (CVV), which was recognized as a promising therapy for stem cell-like colon cancer cells (SCCs) and metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in previous studies. CCA presents major challenges, such as clinical complexity, stem cell cancer characteristics, a high refractory rate, resistance to conventional therapy, and a dismal prognosis. In the present study, we confirmed the oncolytic activity of the CVV in CCA with a slightly alkaline microenvironment (pH 7-8), in which the CVV was stable and highly effective at infecting CCA. Taken together, our findings suggest that CVV-based therapy is highly suitable for the treatment of CCA.

Abstract
Recently, new virus-based sensor systems that operate on M13 bacteriophage infrastructure have attracted considerable attention. These systems can detect a range of chemicals with excellent sensitivity and selectivity. Filaments consistent with M13 bacteriophages can be ordered by highly established forms of self-assembly. This allows M13 bacteriophages to build a homogeneous distribution and infiltrate the network structure of nanostructures under mild conditions. Phage display, involving the genetic engineering of M13 bacteriophages, is another strong feature of the M13 bacteriophage as a functional building block. The numerous genetic modification possibilities of M13 bacteriophages are clearly the key features, and far more applications are envisaged. This paper reviews the recent progress in the application of the M13 bacteriophage self-assembly structures through to sensor systems and discusses future M13 bacteriophage technology.

Abstract
A highly-integrated sphere-based sensing platform for directly identifying numerous saccharides very efficiently is developed.
Saccharides have strong hydrophilicities, and are complex molecular structures with subtle structure differences, and tremendous structural variations. The creation of one sensing platform capable of efficiently identifying such target systems presents a huge challenge. Using the integration of unique multiple noncovalent interactions simultaneously occurring in poly(ionic liquid)s (PILs) with multiple signaling channels, in this research an aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-doped photonic structured PIL sphere is constructed. It is found that such a sphere can serve as a highly integrated platform to provide abundant fingerprints for directly sensing numerous saccharides with an unprecedented efficiency. As a demonstration, 23 saccharides can be conveniently identified using only one sphere. More importantly, by using simple ion-exchanges of PIL receptors or/and increasing the AIE signaling channels, this platform is able to perform, on demand, different sensing tasks very efficiently. This is demonstrated by using it for the detection of difficult targets, such as greatly extended saccharides as well as mixed targets, in real-life examples on one or two spheres. The findings show that this new class of platform is very promising for addressing the challenges of identifying saccharides.

Improvement of High Affinity and Selectivity on Biosensors Using Genetically Engineered Phage by Binding Isotherm Screening. Viruses 2019; 11:v11030248. [PMID: 30871031 PMCID: PMC6466209 DOI: 10.3390/v11030248] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2019] [Revised: 03/05/2019] [Accepted: 03/08/2019] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
The genetically engineered M13 bacteriophage (M13 phage), developed via directed evolutionary screening process, can improve the sensitivity of sensors because of its selective binding to a target material. Herein, we propose a screening method to develop a selective and sensitive bioreporter for toxic material based on genetically engineered M13 phage. The paraquat (PQ)-binding M13 phage, developed by directed evolution, was used. The binding affinities of the PQ-binding M13 phage to PQ and similar molecules were analyzed using isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). Based on the isotherms measured by ITC, binding affinities were calculated using the one-site binding model. The binding affinity was 5.161 × 10−7 for PQ, and 3.043 × 10−7 for diquat (DQ). The isotherm and raw ITC data show that the PQ-binding M13 phage does not selectively bind to difenzoquat (DIF). The phage biofilter experiment confirmed the ability of PQ-binding M13 bacteriophage to bind PQ. The surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) platform based on the bioreporter, PQ-binding M13 phage, exhibited 3.7 times the signal intensity as compared with the wild-type-M13-phage-coated platform.

Seol D, Jang D, Oh JW, Cha K, Chung H. Discrimination of phthalate species using a simple phage-based colorimetric sensor in conjunction with hierarchical support vector machine. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2019; 170:238-242.

Abstract
Here, the analytical potential of an M13 bacteriophage-based color sensor for discrimination of 4 phthalates with similar molecular structures (bis-(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate (BEHP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP), diethyl phthalate (DEP), and benzyl-butyl-phthalate (BBP)) was investigated. The pattern and magnitude of the RGB color changes were different depending on the functional groups present in the phthalate structures. For example, BEHP possessing a long alkyl chain resulted in a minute color change, while the variation of color was substantially large when BBP containing an additional benzene ring was measured. Since a tryptophan-histidine-tryptophan residue possessing indole and imidazole was present on the self-assembled phages, the π-π interaction of benzene in BBP with the sensor surface produced a considerably greater color change. To evaluate the multi-modally varying color signals due to diverse interactions of the phthalates with the sensor and to discriminate them, support vector machine (SVM), which can construct a boundary hyperplane among complexly scattered sample groups, was used. In addition, hierarchical SVM (H-SVM) was adopted to deal with multi-class discrimination. The use of H-SVM improved the discrimination accuracy up to 90.1%, compared to 87.1% using SVM. The demonstrated color sensor is versatile and can be potentially adopted as an on-site screening tool. Strategies to improve the accuracy further for real applications are also discussed.

Abstract
An M13 bacteriophage-based Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) system is developed to estimate intermolecular distance at the nanoscale using a complex of CdSSe/ZnS nanocrystal quantum dots, genetically engineered M13 bacteriophages labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate and trinitrotoluene (TNT) as an inhibitor. In the absence of trinitrotoluene, it is observed that a significant spectral shift from blue to green occur, which represents efficient energy transfer through dipole-dipole coupling between donor and acceptor, or FRET-on mode. On the other hand, in the presence of trinitrotoluene, the energy transfer is suppressed, since the donor-to-acceptor intermolecular distance is detuned by the specific capturing of TNT by the M13 bacteriophage, denoted as FRET-off mode. These noble features are confirmed by changes in the fluorescence intensity and the fluorescence decay curve. TNT addition to our system results in reducing the total energy transfer efficiency considerably from 16.1% to 7.6% compared to that in the non-TNT condition, while the exciton decay rate is significantly enhanced. In particular, we confirm that the energy transfer efficiency satisfies the original intermolecular distance dependence of FRET. The relative donor-to-acceptor distance is changed from 70.03 Å to 80.61 Å by inclusion of TNT.

Abstract
Highly periodic and uniform nanostructures, based on a genetically engineered M13 bacteriophage, displayed unique properties at the nanoscale that have the potential for a variety of applications. In this work, we report a multilayer biofilm with self-assembled nanoporous surfaces involving a nanofiber-like genetically engineered 4E-type M13 bacteriophage, which was fabricated using a simple pulling method. The nanoporous surfaces were effectively formed by using the networking-like structural layers of the M13 bacteriophage during self-assembly. Therefore, an external template was not required. The actual M13 bacteriophage-based fabricated multilayered biofilm with porous nanostructures agreed well with experimental and simulation results. Pores formed in the final layer had a diameter of about 150–500 nm and a depth of about 15–30 nm. We outline a filter application for this multilayered biofilm that enables selected ions to be extracted from a sodium chloride solution. Here, we describe a simple, environmentally friendly, and inexpensive fabrication approach with large-scale production potential. The technique and the multi-layered biofilms produced may be applied to sensor, filter, plasmonics, and bio-mimetic fields.

Abstract
A surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensor comprising silver nanowires (AgNWs) and genetically engineered M13 bacteriophages expressing a tryptophan-histidine-tryptophan (WHW) peptide sequence (BPWHW) was fabricated by simple mixing of BPWHW and AgNW solutions, followed by vacuum filtration onto a glass-fiber filter paper (GFFP) membrane. The AgNWs stacked on the GFFP formed a high density of SERS-active hot spots at the points of nanowire intersections, and the surface-coated BPWHW functioned as a bioreceptor for selective pesticide detection. The BPWHW-functionalized AgNW (BPWHW/AgNW) sensor was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, confocal scanning fluorescence microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The Raman signal enhancement and the selective pesticide SERS detection properties of the BPWHW/AgNW sensor were investigated in the presence of control substrates such as wild-type M13 bacteriophage-decorated AgNWs (BPWT/AgNW) and undecorated AgNWs (AgNW). The BPWHW/AgNW sensor exhibited a significantly higher capture capability for pesticides, especially paraquat (PQ), than the control SERS substrates, and it also showed a relatively higher selectivity for PQ than for other bipyridylium pesticides such as diquat and difenzoquat. Furthermore, as a field application test, PQ was detected on the surface of PQ-pretreated apple peels, and the results demonstrated the feasibility of using a paper-based SERS substrate for on-site residual pesticide detection. The developed M13 bacteriophage-functionalized AgNW SERS sensor might be applicable for the detection of various pesticides and chemicals through modification of the M13 bacteriophage surface peptide sequence.

Abstract
Over the last decade, viruses have established themselves as a powerful tool in nanotechnology. Their proteinaceous capsids benefit from biocompatibility, chemical addressability, and a variety of sizes and geometries, while their ability to encapsulate, scaffold, and self-assemble enables their use for a wide array of purposes. Moreover, the scaling up of viral-based nanotechnologies is facilitated by high capsid production yield and speed, which is particularly advantageous when compared with slower and costlier lithographic techniques. These features enable the bottom-up fabrication of photonic and plasmonic materials, which relies on the precise arrangement of photoactive material at the nanoscale to control phenomena such as electromagnetic wave propagation and energy transfer. The interdisciplinary approach required for the fabrication of such materials combines techniques from the life sciences and device engineering, thus promoting innovative research. Materials with applications spanning the fields of sensing (biological, chemical, and physical sensors), nanomedicine (cellular imaging, drug delivery, phototherapy), energy transfer and conversion (solar cells, light harvesting, photocatalysis), metamaterials (negative refraction, artificial magnetism, near-field amplification), and nanoparticle synthesis are considered with exclusive emphasis on viral capsids and protein cages. This article is categorized under: Biology-Inspired Nanomaterials > Protein and Virus-Based Structures.

Abstract
By simultaneously exploiting the unique properties of ionic liquids and aggregation-induced emission (AIE) luminogens, as well as photonic structures, a novel customizable sensing system for multi-analytes was developed based on a single AIE-doped poly(ionic liquid) photonic sphere. It was found that due to the extraordinary multiple intermolecular interactions involved in the ionic liquid units, one single sphere could differentially interact with broader classes of analytes, thus generating response patterns with remarkable diversity. Moreover, the optical properties of both the AIE luminogen and photonic structure integrated in the poly(ionic liquid) sphere provide multidimensional signal channels for transducing the involved recognition process in a complementary manner and the acquisition of abundant and sufficient sensing information could be easily achieved on only one sphere sensor element. More importantly, the sensing performance of our poly(ionic liquid) photonic sphere is designable and customizable through a simple ion-exchange reaction and target-oriented multi-analyte sensing can be conveniently realized using a selective receptor species, such as counterions, showing great flexibility and extendibility. The power of our single sphere-based customizable sensing system was exemplified by the successful on-demand detection and discrimination of four multi-analyte challenge systems: all 20 natural amino acids, nine important phosphate derivatives, ten metal ions and three pairs of enantiomers. To further demonstrate the potential of our spheres for real-life application, 20 amino acids in human urine and their 26 unprecedented complex mixtures were also discriminated between by the single sphere-based array.
