Exploring T7 RNA polymerase-assisted CRISPR/Cas13a amplification for the detection of BNP via electrochemiluminescence sensing platform. Anal Chim Acta 2024; 1300:342409. [PMID: 38521567 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2024.342409] [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: 12/04/2023] [Revised: 01/25/2024] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024]
Abstract
Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) is considered to be an important biomarker of heart failure (HF) attracting attention. However, its low concentration and short half-life in blood lead to a low-sensitivity detection of BNP, which is a challenge that has to be overcome. In this work, we propose a highly specific, highly sensitive T7 RNA polymerase-assisted clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas13a system to detect BNP via an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensing platform and incorporate exonuclease III (Exo III)-hairpin and dumbbell-shaped hybridization chain reaction (HCR) technologies. In this detection scheme, the ECL sensing platform possesses low background signal and high sensitivity. Firstly, the T7 promoter-initiated T7 RNA polymerase acts as a signal amplification technique to generate large amounts of RNAs that can activate CRISPR/Cas13a activity. Secondly, CRISPR/Cas13a is able to trans-cleave the surrounding trigger strand to produce DNA1. Thirdly, DNA1 is involved in the co-amplification reaction of Exo III and hairpin DNA, which subsequently triggers a dumbbell-shaped HCR technology. Eventually, a large number of Ru (II) molecules are inserted into the interstitial space of the dumbbell-shaped HCR to generate a strong ECL signal. The CRISPR/Cas13a possesses outstanding specificity for a single base and increased sensitivity. The tightly conformed dumbbell-shaped HCR provides higher sensitivity than the traditional linear HCR amplification technique. Ultimately, the clever combination of several amplification reactions enables the limit of detection (LOD) as low as 3.2 fg/mL. It showed promise for clinical sample testing, with recovery rates ranging from 98.4% to 103% in 5% human serum samples. This detection method offered a valuable tool for early HF detection, emphasizing the synergy of amplification strategies and specificity conferred by CRISPR/Cas13a technology.

Abstract
The multi-target simultaneous detection strategy based on potential-resolved electrochemiluminescence (ECL) has still been a research hotspot in analytical science, but the limited selection of ECL luminophores hinders the development of this field. Herein, polyethyleneimine functionalized perylene derivatives (PTC-PEI) and luminol functionalized gold nanoparticles (Lu-Au NPs) possessed significantly resolved emission potentials as ECL luminophore. The ternary ECL system was constructed with MoS2 nanoflowers and K2S2O8 as the coreaction accelerator and coreactant respectively, which significantly improved the cathode ECL emission of PTC-PEI. Simultaneously, the anode coreaction accelerator ZnO nanoflowers could promote the anode coreactant dissolved O2 reduction, and extremely enhanced the anode ECL emission of Lu-Au NPs. The proposed strategy addressed the major technical challenge of cross interference and competition of the coreactants for dual-biomarker detection, thus enabling accurate detection of miRNA-205 and miRNA-21 from 10 fM to 100 nM, with detection limits of 2.57 and 1.15 fM, respectively. In general, this work achieved a single-step synchronous detection of dual biomarkers, providing a new idea for the ECL detection of multiple biomarkers, and having potential value in the clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
The accumulation of pesticide residues poses a significant threat to the health of people and the surrounding ecological systems. However, traditional methods are not only costly but require expertise in analysis. An electrochemiluminescence (ECL) aptasensor was developed using chitosan and molybdenum disulfide (CTS-MoS2), along with acetylene black (AB@CTS) for the rapid detection of malathion residues. Due to the weak interaction force, simple composite may lead to uneven dispersion; MoS2 and AB were dissolved in CTS solution, respectively, and utilized the biocompatibility of CTS to interact with each other on the electrode. The MoS2 nanosheets provided a large specific surface area, enhancing the utilization rate of catalytic materials, while AB exhibited excellent conductivity. Additionally, the dendritic polylysine (PLL) contained numerous amino groups to load abundant luminol to catalyze hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and generate reactive oxygen species (ROS). The proposed ECL aptasensor obtained a low detection limit of 2.75 × 10-3 ng/mL (S/N = 3) with a good detection range from 1.0 × 10-2 ng/mL to 1.0 × 103 ng/mL, demonstrating excellent specificity, repeatability, and stability. Moreover, the ECL aptasensor was successfully applied for detecting malathion pesticide residues in authentic samples with recovery rates ranging from 94.21% to 99.63% (RSD < 2.52%). This work offers valuable insights for advancing ECL sensor technology in future applications.

Abstract
As a crucial indicator in food and water safety testing, the detection of Escherichia coli plays a significant role in maintaining environmental sanitation and promoting public health. Herein, based on the electrochemical activity characteristics of E. coli, we established an enhanced electrochemiluminescence aptasensor for E. coli analysis. This study presents a new method for accurate identification by utilizing a double aptamer recognition system. Specifically, a nano-cadmium sulfide (CdS) modified aptamer was used for primary labeling, while a second aptamer was immobilized on a graphene/chitosan composite electrode for re-capture. The use of two aptamers improves the accuracy of the identification process. Furthermore, the application of an electrode potential facilitates continuous electron transfer between the electrode and electrochemically active microorganisms, resulting in an enhanced electroluminescence signal in relation to the metabolic status. This strategy possesses better sensitivity, accuracy, and stability, demonstrating its potential for E. coli analysis.

Abstract
Based on the highly specific interaction between concanavalin A (Con A) and glucose (Glu), a competitive electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor was constructed for ultrasensitive detection of Con A. Nanocomposites with excellent electrocatalytic and photothermal properties were obtained by covalently bonding zinc oxide quantum dots (ZnO QDs) to vanadium carbide MXene (V2C MXene) surfaces. The modification of ZnO QDs hinders the aggregation of V2C MXene and increases the catalytic activity of oxygen reduction reaction, thus amplifying the luminol cathodic emission. In addition, the excellent photothermal performance of the V2C MXene-ZnO QDs can convert light energy into heat energy under the irradiation of 808 nm near infrared laser, thus increasing the temperature of the reaction system and accelerating the electron transfer process to realize the synergistic amplified homogeneous ECL system. This innovative work not only enriches the fundamental research on multifunctional MXene nanomaterials for biosensing, but also provides an effective strategy for ECL signal amplification.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are often used as carriers in the preparation of electrochemiluminescent (ECL) materials, and ECL materials stabilized in the aqueous phase can be prepared by encapsulating chromophores inside MOFs by an in situ growth method. In this study, nanocomposites MIL-88B(Fe)-NH2@Ru(py)32+ with excellent ECL response were prepared by encapsulating Tris(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium dichloride (Ru(py)32+) inside MIL-88B(Fe)-NH2 using the one-step hydrothermal method. MIL-88B(Fe)-NH2 possesses abundant amino groups, which can accelerate the catalytic activation process of K2S2O8, and its abundant pores are also conducive to the enhancement of the transmission rate of co-reactant agents, ions, and electrons, which effectively improves the ECL efficiency. In order to obtain more excellent ECL signals, we prepared aminated biochar (NH2-biochar) using Pu-erh tea dregs as precursor and loaded gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) on its surface as substrate material for modified electrodes. Both NH2-biochar and Au NPs can also be used as a co-reactant promoter to catalyze the activation process of co-reactant K2S2O8. Therefore, a sandwich-type ECL immunosensor was prepared based on a dual signal-enhanced strategy for the highly sensitive and selective detection of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1). Under the optimal experimental conditions, the sensitive detection of AFB1 was achieved in the range of 1 pg·mL-1~100 ng·mL-1 with a detection limit of 209 fg·mL-1. The proposed dual signal-enhanced ECL immunosensor can provide a simple, convenient, and efficient method for the sensitive detection of AFB1 in food and agricultural products.

Abstract
Thioacetamide (TAA) is a well-known hepatotoxic substance, so it is important to determine its presence and content in food and environmental samples. Herein, we report a highly sensitive determination method for TAA based on the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) of tris(2,2'-bipyridyl)ruthenium(ii) (Ru(bpy)32+) for the first time by using TAA as a new coreactant for Ru(bpy)32+ ECL via an anodic route. The developed Ru(bpy)32+-TAA ECL system allows the determination of TAA with a good dynamic linear range and low limit of detection (LOD) of 0.1 μM to 1000 μM and 0.035 μM (3σ/m), respectively. In addition, the established ECL system can be applied to detect TAA in fruit juice and waste water samples with outstanding recoveries.

Abstract
Simultaneous cathodic and anodic electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emissions of needle-like nanostructures of Ru(bpy)32+ (RuNDs) as the only luminophore are reported based on different co-reactants. Cathodic ECL was attained from RuNDs/K2S2O8 system, while anodic ECL was achieved from RuNDs/black phosphorus quantum dots (BPQDs) system. Ferrocene attached to the hairpin DNA could quench the cathodic and anodic ECL simultaneously. Subsequently, the ECL signals recovered in the presence of tumor marker mucin 1 (MUC1), which made it possible to quantitatively detect MUC1. The variation of ECL signal was related linearly to the concentrations of MUC1 in the range 20 pg mL-1 to 10 ng mL-1, and the detection limits were calculated to 2.5 pg mL-1 (anodic system, 3σ) and 6.2 pg mL-1 (cathodic system, 3σ), respectively. The recoveries were 97.0%, 105%, and 95.2% obtained from three human serum samples, and the relative standard deviation (RSD) is 5.3%. As a proof of concept, this work realized simultaneous ECL emission of a single luminophore, which initiates a new thought in biomarker ECL detection beyond the traditional ones. Simultaneous cathodic and anodic ECL emissions of RuNDs were reported based on different co-reactants. Ferrocene could quench the ECL emission in the cathode and the anode simultaneously. Thus, an aptasensor was constructed based on the variation of ECL intensity. As a proof of concept, this work realized simultaneous ECL emission of a single luminophore, which initiates a new thought in biomarker ECL detection beyond the traditional ones by avoiding the false positive signals.

Abstract
Though luminol is one of the most prominent and extensively studied luminophores in ECL studies, only H2O2 has been widely used as a co-reactant. This limits the variety of applications because of the short-time radical stability and low quantum efficiency. In the present work, we identified dicyclohexylamine (DCHA) as a new and highly efficient anodic co-reactant in ECL for the luminol molecule. The electrochemical and ECL behavior of the luminol/DCHA system was studied on a simple bare GCE surface, which results in two anodic ECL peaks at the potential region of +0.38 and +0.94 V vs Ag/AgCl. The evidence of (DCHA•+) and O2•- generated in the system was detected via flat-cell electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy experiments at ∼20 °C. Using the bimodal ECL system, the highly sensitive detection of luminol was achieved with the detection limit down to 1.5 pM. Further, a homebuilt electrochemiluminescent detector coupled with a flow injection analysis (ECL-FIA) system was adopted to detect the DCHA contaminant in harvested honey, which achieved higher detection and sensitivity under the optimized experimental conditions. DCHA was detected in the range of 10 nM to 100 μM with the detection limit of 2 nM (S/N = 3). The present findings of new luminol/DCHA ECL signals produced a strong ECL emission, which leads to a greater potential to meet the fast-developing analytical application of a luminol-based ECL system.

Abstract
Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) can be produced through two main routes: annihilation route and coreactant route. The vast majority of applications of ECL are based on coreactant ECL which can be generated in aqueous media at relatively low potentials compared with organic solvents. However, the development of more efficient ECL systems remains a compelling goal. Co-reaction accelerator (CRA) can significantly enhance the ECL signal through promoting more production of the coreactant intermediate. Compared with other ECL enhancement strategies, the CRA protocol is distinctive owing to its diverse, simple, and highly effective features. Various species such as inorganic compound, organic compound, and nanomaterials (NMs) have been developed as CRA and NM CRA has gained particular attention owing to their unique properties of excellent catalytic behavior and large surface area. By integration with the inherent advantages of ECL, bioanalysis based on CRA-enhanced ECL showed excellent performance such as ultrahigh sensitivity, wide dynamic range, low cost, simple instrumentation, and measurements in complex media. It has been extensively applied in various fields including clinical diagnosis, environmental monitoring, and food safety. Therefore, it is of great interest to present a systematic and critical review on the advances in ECL CRA. Herein, the recent progress on CRA and its applications in ECL bioanalysis are summarized by illustrating some representative work and a discussion of the future development trends of CRA ECL is offered.

Abstract
Herein, we report a novel dual-quenching electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor for detecting protein induced by vitamin K absence or antagonist-II (PIVKA-II) based on ECL resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET). In this protocol, self-accelerated ECL hybrids of CeO2 and Au nanoparticles functionalized g-C3N4 nanosheets (CeO2-Au-g-C3N4) were prepared, which exhibited high ECL emission in the presence of S2O82- as a coreactant for "signal on" state. Concretely, CeO2 with a reproducible redox couple of Ce3+ and Ce4+ could act as an efficient co-reaction accelerator to generate more oxidizing intermediate (SO4•-) to significantly self-promote the ECL emission of g-C3N4 NSs/S2O82- ECL system. Besides, Au nanoparticles not only accelerated electron transfer in the ECL process, but also provided massive active sites for biomolecules immobilization. The dual quenching labels of Ag nanocubes modified with vitamin B2 (AgNCs-VB2) were firstly proposed towards g-C3N4 NSs/S2O82- ECL system by ECL-RET, resulting in the remarkable ECL decrease for "signal off" state. Based on the sandwich immunoreaction, the "on-off" PIVKA-II ECL immunosensor gratifyingly possessed excellent detection sensitivity with the linear range of 0.4 pg mL-1-10 ng mL-1 and the low detection limit of 28.46 fg mL-1 (S/N = 3). This presented strategy might provide a potential alternative tool for PIVKA-II detection in medical research and early clinical diagnostics of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract
Due to the proliferative cancer rates, cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative disorders, autoimmune diseases and a plethora of infections across the globe, it is essential to introduce strategies that can rapidly and specifically detect the ultralow concentrations of relevant biomarkers, pathogens, toxins and pharmaceuticals in biological matrices. Considering these pathophysiologies, various research works have become necessary to fabricate biosensors for their early diagnosis and treatment, using nanomaterials like quantum dots (QDs). These nanomaterials effectively ameliorate the sensor performance with respect to their reproducibility, selectivity as well as sensitivity. In particular, graphene quantum dots (GQDs), which are ideally graphene fragments of nanometer size, constitute discrete features such as acting as attractive fluorophores and excellent electro-catalysts owing to their photo-stability, water-solubility, biocompatibility, non-toxicity and lucrativeness that make them favorable candidates for a wide range of novel biomedical applications. Herein, we reviewed about 300 biomedical studies reported over the last five years which entail the state of art as well as some pioneering ideas with respect to the prominent role of GQDs, especially in the development of optical, electrochemical and photoelectrochemical biosensors. Additionally, we outline the ideal properties of GQDs, their eclectic methods of synthesis, and the general principle behind several biosensing techniques.

Abstract
In traditional electrochemiluminescence (ECL) analysis, gold nanomaterials are commonly used as a tool for signal amplification and linking antibodies due to their good electrical conductivity and biocompatibility. Here, we found that multitipped gold nanoparticles-gold nanoflowers (AuNFs) as coreactant accelerator have good catalytic activity for the reduction of dissolved oxygen (O2) to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) using tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane (Tris) as electron donor. Based on this, a new enzyme-free and label-free ECL immunosensor have been constructed for the detection of α-fetoprotein (AFP). In this system, due to the unique geometric and spatial effects of AuNFs, the dissolved O2 as endogenous coreactant was catalyzed by AuNFs to produce H2O2 using Tris as an electron donor. The in situ generated H2O2 can more efficiently produce various electrogenerated reactive oxygen species (ROSs) as the important intermediates on the electrode surface. Then, oxidation of luminol reacts with ROSs significantly amplifies the luminol ECL signal. Under optimal experimental conditions, the proposed ECL immunosensor was able to detect the AFP concentration from 0.01 to 100 ng mL-1, with a low detection limit of 3.4 pg mL-1 (S/N = 3). In addition, the prepared ITO-based sensor is similar to a micro-test chip and convenient to use, thus making it suitable for clinical use as a disposable device in point-of-care tests (POCTs).

Furthermore, the results herein discussed would demonstrate that the use of nanomaterials with unique chemical and physical properties in the ECL biosensing systems is one of the most interesting research lines for the development of ultrasensitive electrochemiluminescence biosensors. In addition, ECL based sensing assays for clinical samples analysis and medical diagnostics and developing of immunosensors, aptasensors and cytosensor for this purpose is also highlighted.

Abstract
Flexible and wearable chemical sensors show great capability and potential in retrieving physiologically related chemical or biochemical information from elastic and curvilinear living bodies. However, so far, no flexible electrochemiluminescence (ECL) device has been reported, though ECL measurements have been extensively investigated and widely applied in many fields. Herein, we for the first time designed and fabricated a flexible ECL sensor by immobilizing highly luminescent nanospheres on Au nanotube (Au NT) networks, and subsequently coating an elastic molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) thereon. The as-prepared flexible ECL platform displayed successive and desirable mechanical compliance while generating a very stable ECL signal during deformation, facilitating highly selective detection of physiologically relevant chemicals from bodies. On-body wearable sampling and subsequent detection of lactate and urea from sweat showed the ECL performance of this sensor displaying desirable fidelity, reusability and high stability against disturbance. This work successfully incorporated the ECL sensing model into a flexible and wearable device, therefore providing a promising new path for non-invasively monitoring the products of metabolism for health care and biomedical investigations.

Abstract
Ratiometric electrochemical sensors can provide a relatively accurate analysis of target analytes due to their self-calibration function. Herein, we report a simple ratiometric strategy for achieving the electrochemical detection of Cd(ii), Hg(ii), Pb(ii) and Zn(ii), as well as multiple cancer biomarkers by using metal sulfide nanoparticles as signal tags. A conductive polymer film of poly(2-amino terephthalic acid) (ATA) was electrochemically produced on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) and doped with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and mercaptosuccinic acid (MSA). Using Bi(iii) as an enhancer and internal reference in anodic stripping voltammetry, the MSA-CNT-ATA/GCE exhibited sensitive and distinguishable voltammetric responses to Cd(ii), Hg(ii), Pb(ii) and Zn(ii), with detection limits of 0.13, 0.49, 0.16 and 0.089 μg L-1, respectively. By using CdS, HgS, PbS and ZnS labeled secondary antibodies as the signal tags, alpha-fetoprotein, carbohydrate antigen 19-9, carbohydrate antigen 125, and carcinoembryonic antigen were determined simultaneously according to the amounts of metal sulfide in the sandwich-type complexes, with detection limits of 0.11 pg mL-1, 0.68 mU mL-1, 1.4 mU mL-1 and 0.23 pg mL-1, respectively. This ratiometric approach has a wide scope in the electrochemical detection of heavy metal ions as well as immunoassays with metal ions serving as signal tags.
