Abstract
We introduce an innovative solution to reduce plastic dependence in flexible electronics: a biodegradable, water-resistant, and flexible cellulose-based substrate for crafting electrochemical printed platforms. This sustainable material based on ethyl cellulose (EC) serves as an eco-friendly alternative to PET in screen printing, boasting superior water resistance compared to other biodegradable options. Our study evaluates the performance of carbon-based screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) fabricated on conventional PET, recycled PET (r-PET), and (EC)-based materials. Electrochemical characterization reveals that EC-SPEs exhibit comparable analytical performance to both P-SPEs and rP-SPEs, as evidenced by similar limits of detection (LOD), limits of quantification (LOQ), and reproducibility values for all the analytes tested (ferro-ferricyanide, hexaammineruthenium chloride, uric acid, and hydroquinone). This finding underscores the potential of our cellulose-based substrate to match the performance of conventional PET-based electrodes. Moreover, the scalability and low-energy requirements of our fabrication process highlight the potential of this material to revolutionize eco-conscious manufacturing. By offering a sustainable alternative without compromising performance, our cellulose-based substrate paves the way for greener practices in flexible electronics production.

Abstract
The enzymatic glucose sensors as modified by MXene-dPIn and MWCNT-dPIn on a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) were investigated. Herein, MXene was molybdenum carbide (Mo3C2) which has never been utilized and reported for glucose sensors. The biopolymer type to support the enzyme immobilization was examined and compared between chitosan (CHI) and κ-carrageenan (κC). MWCNT-dPIn obviously showed a larger electroactive surface area, lower charge transfer resistance and higher redox current than Mo3C2-dPIn, indicating that MWCNT-dPIn is superior to Mo3C2-dPIn. For the chitosan-based sensors, the sensitivity value of CHI-GOD/Mo3C2-dPIn is 3.53 μA mM-1 cm-2 in the linear range of 2.5-10 mM with the calculated LOD of 1.57 mM. The sensitivity value of CHI-GOD/MWCNT-dPIn is 18.85 μA mM-1 cm-2 in the linear range of 0.5-25 mM with the calculated LOD of 0.115 mM. For the κ-carrageenan based sensors, κC-GOD/MWCNT-dPIn exhibits the sensitivity of 15.80 μA mM-1 cm-2 and the widest linear range from 0.1 to 50 mM with the calculated LOD of 0.03 mM. The presently fabricated sensors exhibit excellent reproducibility, good selectivity, high stability, and disposal use. The fabricated glucose sensors are potential as practical glucose sensors as the detectable glucose ranges well cover the glucose levels found in blood, urine, and sweat for both healthy people and diabetic patients.

Abstract
Reliable and precise quantification of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 in clinical samples is vital because vitamin D3 deficiency lead to several disorders, such as mental illness, osteoporosis, and coronavirus disease. Herein, we report the fabrication of a novel electrochemical aptasensor using a nanocomposite, including reduced graphene oxide, pyrrole, and l-cysteine, for the sensitive detection of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 . Subsequently, the aptamer of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 was immobilized on the surface of the modified electrode. Differential pulse voltammetry signals were utilized for studying the binding and measurement of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 based on the oxidation peak. Under the optimum conditions, the designed electrochemical aptasensor exhibited a linear detection range of 0.001-150 nM, with a limit of detection of 0.006 nM. Furthermore, the proposed aptasensor selectively detected 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 compared to other analogs. Moreover, this aptasensor was successfully applied for the detection of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 in human serum samples, which were quantified by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method. The acceptable recoveries of 82.67%-111.07% demonstrated that this proposed electrochemical aptasensor can be a promising alternative for clinical methods of vitamin D determination.

Photo-assisted "co-movement catalysis": CoFe 2O 4/CNS heterojunction based portable electrochemical sensor for simultaneous detection of Pb 2+ and Cd 2+ in natural water. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 460:132420. [PMID: 37703735 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.132420] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2023] [Revised: 08/23/2023] [Accepted: 08/26/2023] [Indexed: 09/15/2023]
Abstract
Heavy metal ions (HMIs) seriously threaten human health even under trace conditions. Therefore, accurate, efficient and simultaneous detection of multiple HMIs is of great significance. Here, a strategy of "co-movement catalysis" based on photo-assisted electrochemical catalysis is proposed by constructing a flexible electrochemical sensor with CoFe2O4/CNS heterojunction-modified nickel foam as the working electrode for simultaneous detection of HMIs. Regarding photo-assisted catalysis, CoFe2O4/CNS nanocomposites formed a p-n type heterojunction, effectively separating photo-generated electron-hole pairs and reducing photo-generated carriers' recombination rate, leading to the catalytic reaction of photogenerated electrons and holes with HMIs and atoms to improve the efficiency of preconcentration and stripping, further amplifying the electrochemical signal. Regarding electrochemical catalysis, the CoFe2O4 spinel contains variable valence transition metal ions Fe2+/Fe3+ and Co2+/Co3+, which can reduce and oxidize HMIs circularly, further enhancing the sensor's sensitivity. The portable sensor based on "co-movement catalysis" exhibited sensitive detection performance. The linear range is 0.100-10.0 μM for Pb2+ and 1.00-10.0 μM for Cd2+, with the detection limit of 0.0310 μM for Pb2+ and 0.219 μM for Cd2+, respectively. The recovery rate of the sensor to natural water samples is between 96% and 105%, which proves its development potential in environmental monitoring.

Abstract
In this work, we used a simple ultrasonic stripping method to synthesize a bimetal MOFs at room temperature as a nanoenzyme with peroxidase-like (POD-like) activity. Through bimetal MOFs catalytic Fenton-like competitive reaction, thiamphenicol can be quantitatively dual-mode detected by fluorescence and colorimetry. It realized the sensitive detection of thiamphenicol in water, and the limits of detection (LOD) were 0.030 nM and 0.031 nM, and the liner ranges were 0.1-150 nM and 0.1-100 nM, respectively. The methods were applied to river water, lake water and tap water samples, and with satisfactory recoveries between 97.67% and 105.54%.

Abstract
With the increasing number of patients suffering from Parkinson's disease, the importance of measuring drug levels in patient body fluids has increased exponentially, particularly for the drug clozapine. There is a growing demand for real-time analysis of biofluids on a single low-cost platform in ultra-low fluid volumes with robustness. This study aims to measure the level of clozapine (Clz) with a portable potentiostat using a practical approach. For this purpose, we developed an inexpensive, portable platform via electrochemistry on a commercial glucose test strip (CTS). CTSs were first modified by removing the enzyme mixture from the surface of the sensing zone, which was followed by modification with Multi walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and Nafion. The electrochemical characteristics of CTS electrodes were investigated using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential voltammetry (DPV) techniques. The designed sensor displayed decent linear range, detection limit, reproducibility, and reusability results. A linear dynamic range of 0.1-5 μM clozapine was observed under optimized conditions with a good sensitivity (1.295 μA/μM) and detection limit (83 nM). Furthermore, the designed sensing electrode was used to measure the amount of Clz in real samples.

Abstract
The establishment of a fluorescence sensing system for sensitive and selective visual detection of trace antibiotics is of great significance to food safety and human health risk assessment. A simple and rapid one-pot strategy was developed successfully to synthesize a down/up-conversion dual-excitation multi-emission fluorescence imprinted sensor for dual-channel thiamphenicol (TAP) detection. In this strategy, the metal-organic frameworks were in situ incorporated into the fluorescence imprinted sensor, guiding the coordination induced emission of abiotic carbon dots and signal-amplification effect of fluorescence sensing. Under dual-excitation (370 nm and 780 nm), the fluorescence imprinted sensor exhibited a dual-channel fluorescence response toward TAP with two-part linear ranges of 5.0 nM-6.0 μM and 6.0 μM-26.0 μM. Significantly, the fluorescence color ranged from blue to purple to red can be observed with the naked eye. The results of the dual-channel TAP determination in actual samples by the fluorescence imprinted sensor indicated that the fluorescence imprinted sensor provided a sensitive, selective, and multiplexed visual detection of TAP in complex sample.

Abstract
Herein, N, S co-doped carbon quantum dots (N, S-CDs) with high absolute quantitative yield (Abs-QY) of 50.2% were produced by hydrothermal treatment of food residue crayfish shells. A new detection method of thiamphenicol (TAP) and its analogues was established by discovering the obvious fluorescence response between TAP and N, S-CDs, which achieved a wide linear range of 20–300 μg·L−1 with a detection limit (LOD) of 11.12 μg·L−1. This novel probe exhibited strong sensitivity and shows rapid response in complex food matrices (overall detection time is less than 45 min) mainly induced by static quenching. Spiked food sample recovery ranged from 97.3 to 99.34%. Further, the cell experiments of N, S-CDs were conducted, and the cell viability remained 91.76% under high concentration of N, S-CDs due to the environmentally friendly materials. The low cytotoxicity and good cytocompatibility make these N, S-CDs compatible for cell bioimaging and intracellular detection of TAP.

Abstract
Amphenicols are broad-spectrum antibiotics. Despite their benefits, they also present toxic effects and therefore their presence in animal-derived food was regulated. Various analytical methods have been reported for their trace analysis in food and environmental samples, as well as in the quality control of pharmaceuticals. Among these methods, the electrochemical ones are simpler, more rapid and cost-effective. The working electrode is the core of any electroanalytical method because the selectivity and sensitivity of the determination depend on its surface activity. Therefore, this review offers a comprehensive overview of the electrochemical sensors and methods along with their performance characteristics for chloramphenicol, thiamphenicol and florfenicol detection, with a focus on those reported in the last five years. Electrode modification procedures and analytical applications of the recently described devices for amphenicol electroanalysis in various matrices (pharmaceuticals, environmental, foods), together with the sample preparation methods were discussed. Therefore, the information and the concepts contained in this review can be a starting point for future new findings in the field of amphenicol electrochemical detection.

Abstract
The milk and dairy industries are some of the most profitable sectors in many countries. This business requires close control of product quality and continuous testing to ensure the safety of the consumers. The potential risk of contaminants or degradation products and undesirable chemicals necessitates the use of fast, reliable detection tools to make immediate production decisions. This review covers studies on the application of electrochemical methods to milk (i.e., voltammetric and amperometric) to quantify different analytes, as reported over the last 10 to 15 years. The review covers a wide range of analytes, including allergens, antioxidants, organic compounds, nitrogen- and aldehyde containing compounds, biochemicals, heavy metals, hydrogen peroxide, nitrite, and endocrine disruptors. The review also examines pretreatment procedures applied to milk samples and the use of novel sensor materials. Final perspectives are provided on the future of cost-effective and easy-to-use electrochemical sensors and their advantages over conventional methods.

[PMID: 34481254 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2021.120324] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2021] [Revised: 08/03/2021] [Accepted: 08/24/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
A hybrid fluorescent sensing probe was developed and used to quantitatively analyse thiamphenicol. The probe was constructed by entrapping mesoporous carbon and CdTe*CdS*ZnS quantum dots in molecularly imprinted polymer. The probe was characterized, and the construction and detection conditions were optimized. In the optimized conditions, the recognition sites of the nanoprobe were ultrasensitive and highly selective toward thiamphenicol. The quantitative analysis of thiamphenicol was based on the fluorescence quenching of the hybrid nanoprobe by thiamphenicol. Fluorescence emission was quenched linearly from 0.10 to 100 μg L-1 with a coefficient of determination (R2) of 0.9979. The limit of detection was 0.04 μg L-1. The accuracy of an optosensor based on the hybrid probe was evaluated by analyzing spiked milk samples. The results obtained were compared with the results of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis. The quantitative analysis of the spiked samples with the optosensor agreed well with HPLC analysis. Recoveries were in the range of 93.5 to 100.1 % with good precision (RSD < 5%). The accuracy, speed and convenience of the developed optosensor make it a powerful tool for the detection of thiamphenicol in milk.

Abstract
Carbon dots (CDs) are usually smaller than 10 nm in size, and are meticulously formulated and recently introduced nanomaterials, among the other types of carbon-based nanomaterials. They have gained significant attention and an incredible interest in the field of nanotechnology and biomedical science, which is merely due to their considerable and exclusive attributes; including their enhanced electron transferability, photobleaching and photo-blinking effects, high photoluminescent quantum yield, fluorescence property, resistance to photo-decomposition, increased electrocatalytic activity, good aqueous solubility, excellent biocompatibility, long-term chemical stability, cost-effectiveness, negligible toxicity, and acquaintance of large effective surface area-to-volume ratio. CDs can be readily functionalized owing to the abundant functional groups on their surfaces, and they also exhibit remarkable sensing features such as specific, selective, and multiplex detectability. In addition, the physico-chemical characteristics of CDs can be easily tunable based on their intended usage or application. In this comprehensive review article, we mainly discuss the classification of CDs, their ideal properties, their general synthesis approaches, and primary characterization techniques. More importantly, we update the readers about the recent trends of CDs in health care applications (viz., their substantial and prominent role in the area of electrochemical and optical biosensing, bioimaging, drug/gene delivery, as well as in photodynamic/photothermal therapy).

Abstract
Electrochemical sensors have found a wide range of applications in analytical chemistry thanks to the advent of high-throughput printing technologies. However, these techniques are usually limited to two-dimensional (2D) geometry with relatively large minimal feature sizes. Here, we report on the scalable fabrication of monolithically integrated electrochemical devices with novel and customizable fiber-based architectures. The multimaterial thermal drawing technique is employed to co-process polymer composites and metallic glass into uniform electroactive and pseudoreference electrodes embedded in an insulating polymer cladding fiber. To demonstrate the versatility of the process, we tailor the fiber microstructure to two configurations: a small-footprint fiber tip sensor and a high-surface-area capillary cell. We demonstrate the performance of our devices using cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry for the direct detection and quantification of paracetamol, a common anesthetic drug. Finally, we showcase a fully portable pipet-based analyzer using low-power electronics and an "electrochemical pipet tip" for direct sampling and analysis of microliter-range volumes. Our approach paves the way toward novel materials and architectures for efficient electrochemical sensing to be deployed in existing and novel personal care and surgical configurations.

Abstract
Several antibiotics have been applied to veterinary medicine due to their broad-spectrum of antibacterial activity and prophylactic power. Residues of these antibiotics can be accumulated in dairy cattle, in addition to promoting contamination of the environment and, in more serious cases, in milk, causing a public health problem. Different regulatory agencies establish maximum residue limits for these antibiotics in milk, so it becomes important to develop sensitive analytical methods for monitoring these compounds. Electrochemical techniques are important analytical tools in analytical chemistry because they present low cost, simplicity, high sensitivity, and adequate analytical frequency (sample throughput) for routine analyses. In this sense, this review summarizes the state of the art of the main electrochemical sensors and biosensors, instrumental techniques, and sample preparation used for the development of analytical methods, published in the last five years, for the monitoring of different classes of antibiotics: aminoglycosides, amphenicols, beta-lactams, fluoroquinolones, sulfonamides, and tetracyclines, in milk samples. The different strategies to develop electrochemical sensors and biosensors are critically compared considering their analytical features. The mechanisms of electrochemical oxidation/reduction of the antibiotics are revised and discussed considering strategies to improve the selectivity of the method. In addition, current challenges and future prospects are discussed.

Abstract
A glassy carbon electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) decorated with gold nanoparticles has been investigated for the first time as an ultrasensitive electrochemical sensor for the determination of doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX), an efficient antitumor agent. The developed nanocomposite has been characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), besides cyclic and linear sweep voltammetry electrochemical techniques. An efficient catalytic activity for the reduction of DOX has been demonstrated, leading to a significant increase in peak current density and a remarkable decrease in reduction over-potential. Under the optimal condition, a wide linear DOX concentration range from 1×10-11 to 1×10-6 M with a very low detection limit of 6.5 pM was achieved with the modified electrode. Meanwhile, the functionalized MWCNTs/gold nanoparticles indicated an appropriate selectivity, reproducibility, and repeatability as well as long-term stability. The promising outcomes of this research approved the applicability of the developed nanocomposite sensor towards trace amounts of DOX in pharmaceutical and clinical preparations.

Abstract
Stencil-printing conductive carbon inks has revolutionized the development of inexpensive, disposable and portable electrochemical sensors. However, stencil-printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs) typically suffer from poor electrochemical properties. While many surface pretreatments and modifications have been tested to improve the electrochemical activity of SPCEs, the bulk composition of the inks used for printing has been largely ignored. Recent studies of other carbon composite electrode materials show significant evidence that the conductive carbon particle component is strongly related to electrochemical performance. However, such a study has not been carried out with SPCEs. In this work, we perform a systematic characterization of SPCEs made with different carbon particle types including graphite particles, glassy carbon microparticles and carbon black. The relationship between carbon particle characteristics including particle size, particle purity, and particle morphology as well as particle mass loading on the fabrication and electrochemical properties of SPCEs is studied. SPCEs were plasma treated for surface activation and the electrochemical properties of both untreated and plasma treated SPCEs are also compared. SPCEs displayed distinct analytical utilities characterized through solvent window and double layer capacitance. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) of several standard redox probes, FcTMA+, ferri/ferrocyanide, and pAP was used to establish the effects of carbon particle type and plasma treatment on electron transfer kinetics of SPCEs. CV of the biologically relevant molecules uric acid, NADH and dopamine was employed to further illustrate the differences in sensing and fouling characteristics of SPCEs fabricated with different carbon particle types. SEM imaging revealed significant differences in the SPCE surface microstructures. This systematic study demonstrates that the electrochemical properties of SPCEs can be tuned and significantly improved through careful selection of carbon particle type and plasma cleaning with a goal toward the development of better performing electrochemical point-of-need sensors.

Abstract
In recent years, considering the increasing use of antibiotics, and their continued entry into the environment, extensive research has been conducted on the impact of antibiotics on human health, water resources, and the environment. In this study, a suitable method has been proposed for detecting and elimination the trace amounts of the antibiotic cloxacillin in aqueous. For identify trace amounts of cloxacillin in solution, a new electrochemical nanosensor based on a screen printed carbon electrode (SPCE) modified with gold nanorods/graphene oxide was proposed. This nanosensor, which was prepared by self-assembling method, was capable of measuring cloxacillin in the 5.0-775.0 nM with a detection limit of 1.6 nM. In order to reduce the amount of antibiotics in the environment, a novel carbon nanocomposite based on sol-gel method was prepared and its application as a high-capacity adsorbent for the removal of cloxacillin was studied. In the antibiotic removal experiments, the effect of pH, contact time, different mass ratios of SWCNT and amount of nanocomposite adsorbent were also optimized by response surface methodology (RSM). The prepared nanosensor and synthesized carbon nanocomposites were then characterized by commonly identical techniques involve SEM, EDAX, BET and FT-IR. The presented nanosensor was successfully used for the in situ determination of Clox in adsorptive tests with reliable recovery. As well, the AuNR/GO/SPC electrode presented well stability, repeatability and reproducibility. In addition, good performance and high adsorption capacity make developed adsorbent as a suitable case for the removal of water-soluble pharmaceutical contaminants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In several years ago, infection with human papillomaviruses (HPVs), have been prevalent in the worlds especially HPV type 18, can lead to cervical cancer. Therefore, rapid, accurate, and early diagnosis of HPV for successful treatment is essential. The present study describes the development of a selective and sensitive electrochemical biosensor base on DNA, for early detection of HPV-18. For this purpose, a nanocomposite of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were electrodeposited on a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE). Then, Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) were dropped on a modified SPCE. Subsequently, single strand DNA (ssDNA) probe was immobilized on the modified electrode. The link attached between AuNPs and probe ssDNA provided by L-cysteine via functionalizing AuNPs (Cys-AuNPs). The differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) assay was also used to electrochemical measurement. The measurement was based on the oxidation signals of anthraquninone-2-sulfonic acid monohydrate sodium salt (AQMS) before and after hybridization between the probe and target DNA. RESULTS The calibration curve showed a linear range between 0.01 fM to 0.01 nM with a limit of detection 0.05 fM. The results showed that the optimum concentration for DNA probe was 5 µM. The good performance of the proposed biosensor was achieved through hybridization of DNA probe-modified SPCE with extracted DNA from clinical samples. CONCLUSIONS According to the investigated results, this biosensor can be introduced as a proprietary, accurate, sensitive, and rapid diagnostic method of HPV 18 in the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of real samples.

Abstract
We have investigated the influence exerted by the concentration of graphene oxide (GO) dispersion as a modifier for screen printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs) on the fabrication of an electrochemical biosensor to detect DNA hybridization. A new pretreatment protocol for SPCEs, involving two successive steps in order to achieve a reproducible deposition of GO, is also proposed. Aqueous GO dispersions of different concentrations (0.05, 0.1, 0.15, and 0.2 mg/mL) were first drop-cast on the SPCE substrates and then electrochemically reduced. The electrochemical properties of the modified electrodes were investigated after each modification step by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), while physicochemical characterization was performed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Raman spectroscopy. Finally, the sensing platform was obtained by the simple adsorption of the single-stranded DNA probe onto the electrochemically reduced GO (RGO)-modified SPCEs under optimized conditions. The hybridization was achieved by incubating the functionalized SPCEs with complementary DNA target and detected by measuring the change in the electrochemical response of [Fe(CN)6]3-/4- redox reporter in CV and EIS measurements induced by the release of the newly formed double-stranded DNA from the electrode surface. Our results showed that a higher GO concentration generated a more sensitive response towards DNA detection.

These toxic inorganic gases, volatile organic compounds, heavy metals, personal care products, endocrine-disrupting chemicals, dyes, and pharmaceuticals are destroying the balance in the Earth and increasing environmental toxicity at an alarming rate. Thus, their detection, adsorption and removal are of great significance. Various carbon nanomaterials including carbon nanotubes, graphene, mesoporous carbon, carbon dots, and boron-doped diamond have been extensively utilized and further proven to be ideal candidates for resolving environmental problems, emerging as adsorbents, electrochemical sensors and electrodes. Herein, we review the recent advances, progress and achievements in the design and properties of carbon nanomaterials and their applications for the electrochemical detection and removal of environmental pollutants.

Detection of unamplified target genes via CRISPR-Cas9 immobilized on a graphene field-effect transistor. Nat Biomed Eng 2019; 3:427-437. [PMID: 31097816 PMCID: PMC6556128 DOI: 10.1038/s41551-019-0371-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 351] [Impact Index Per Article: 70.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2018] [Accepted: 02/19/2019] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
Most methods for the detection of nucleic acids require many reagents and expensive and bulky instrumentation. Here, we report the development and testing of a graphene-based field-effect transistor that uses clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) technology to enable the digital detection of a target sequence within intact genomic material. Termed CRISPR-Chip, the biosensor uses the gene-targeting capacity of catalytically deactivated CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) complexed with a specific single-guide RNA and immobilized on the transistor to yield a label-free nucleic-acid-testing device whose output signal can be measured with a simple handheld reader. We used CRISPR-Chip to analyse DNA samples collected from HEK293T cell lines expressing blue fluorescent protein, and clinical samples of DNA with two distinct mutations at exons commonly deleted in individuals with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. In the presence of genomic DNA containing the target gene, CRISPR-Chip generates, within 15 min, with a sensitivity of 1.7 fM and without the need for amplification, a significant enhancement in output signal relative to samples lacking the target sequence. CRISPR-Chip expands the applications of CRISPR-Cas9 technology to the on-chip electrical detection of nucleic acids.

SENSORS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2018; 18:E2716. [PMID: 30126183 PMCID: PMC6111749 DOI: 10.3390/s18082716] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2018] [Revised: 08/12/2018] [Accepted: 08/14/2018] [Indexed: 01/18/2023]
Abstract
A nanostructured electrochemical bi-sensor system for the analysis of milks has been developed using the layer-by-layer technique. The non-enzymatic sensor [CHI+IL/CuPcS]₂, is a layered material containing a negative film of the anionic sulfonated copper phthalocyanine (CuPcS) acting as electrocatalytic material, and a cationic layer containing a mixture of an ionic liquid (IL) (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate) that enhances the conductivity, and chitosan (CHI), that facilitates the enzyme immobilization. The biosensor ([CHI+IL/CuPcS]₂-GAO) results from the immobilization of galactose oxidase on the top of the LbL layers. FTIR, UV⁻vis, and AFM have confirmed the proposed structure and cyclic voltammetry has demonstrated the amplification caused by the combination of materials in the film. Sensors have been combined to form an electronic tongue for milk analysis. Principal component analysis has revealed the ability of the sensor system to discriminate between milk samples with different lactose content. Using a PLS-1 calibration models, correlations have been found between the voltammetric signals and chemical parameters measured by classical methods. PLS-1 models provide excellent correlations with lactose content. Additional information about other components, such as fats, proteins, and acidity, can also be obtained. The method developed is simple, and the short response time permits its use in assaying milk samples online.
