Talanta 2024; 268:125281. [PMID: 37832450 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.125281] [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: 07/18/2023] [Revised: 09/09/2023] [Accepted: 10/05/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023]
Abstract
Rapid and reliable detection of pathogenic bacteria is absolutely essential for research in environmental science, food quality, and medical diagnostics. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), as an emerging spectroscopic technique, has the advantages of high sensitivity, good selectivity, rapid detection speed, and portable operation, which has been broadly used in the detection of pathogenic bacteria in different kinds of complex samples. However, the SERS detection method is also challenging in dealing with the detection difficulties of bacterial samples in complex matrices, such as interference from complex matrices, confusion of similar bacteria, and complexity of data processing. Therefore, researchers have developed some technologies to assist in SERS detection of bacteria, including both the front-end process of obtaining bacterial sample data and the back-end data processing process. The review summarizes the key steps for improving bacterial SERS signals in complex samples: separation, recognition, detection, and analysis, highlighting the principles of each step and the key roles for SERS pathogenic bacteria analysis, and the interconnectivity between each step. In addition, the current challenges in the practical application of SERS technology and the development trends are discussed. The purpose of this review is to deepen researchers' understanding of the various stages of using SERS technology to detect bacteria in complex sample matrices, and help them find new breakthroughs in different stages to facilitate the detection and control of bacteria in complex samples.

Abstract
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) have greatly affected human health in recent years. Accurate and rapid diagnosis of UTIs can enable a more effective treatment. Herein, we developed a multichannel sensor array for efficient identification of bacteria based on three antimicrobial agents (vancomycin, lysozyme, and bacitracin) functional gold nanoclusters (AuNCs). In this sensor, the fluorescence intensity of the three AuNCs was quenched to varying degrees by the bacterial species, providing a unique fingerprint for different bacteria. With this sensing platform, seven pathogenic bacteria, different concentrations of the same bacteria, and even bacterial mixtures were successfully differentiated. Furthermore, UTIs can be accurately identified with our sensors in ∼30 min with 100% classification accuracy. The proposed sensing systems offer a rapid, high-throughput, and reliable sensing platform for the diagnosis of UTIs.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a powerful analytical technique renowned for its ultra-high sensitivity. Extensive research in SERS has led to the development of a wide range of SERS substrates, including plasmonic metals, semiconductors, metal organic frameworks, and their assemblies. Some of these materials are also excellent photocatalysts, and by taking advantage of their bifunctional characteristics, the photocatalytic processes that occur on their surface can be monitored in situ via SERS. This provides us with unique opportunities to gain valuable insights into the intricate details of the photocatalytic processes that are challenging to access using other techniques. In this review, we highlight key development in in situ and/or real-time SERS-tracking of photocatalytic reactions. We begin by providing a brief account of recent developments in SERS substrates, followed by discussions on how SERS can be used to elucidate crucial aspects of photocatalytic processes, including: (1) the influence of the surrounding media on charge carrier extraction; (2) the direction of charge carrier transfer; (3) the pathway of photocatalytic activation; and (4) differentiation between the effects of photo-thermal and energetic electrons. Additionally, we discuss the benefits of tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) due to the ability to achieve high-spatial-resolution measurements. Finally, we address major challenges and propose potential directions for the future of SERS monitoring of photocatalytic reactions. By leveraging the capabilities of SERS, we can uncover new insights into photocatalytic processes, paving the way for advancements in sustainable energy and environmental remediation.

Abstract
Multidrug-resistant bacterial infections, especially those caused by multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria, are an ever-growing threat because of the shrinking arsenal of efficacious antibiotics. Therefore, it is urgently needed to develop a kind of novel, long-term antibacterial agent effectively overcome resistant bacteria. Herein, we present a novel designed antibacterial agent-6-Aza-2-thiothymine-capped gold nanoclusters (ATT-AuNCs), which show excellent antibacterial activity against multidrug-resistant E. coli bacteria. The prepared AuNCs could permeabilize into the bacterial cell membrane via binding with a bivalent cation (e.g., Ca2+), followed by the generation of reactive oxygen species (e.g., •OH and •O2-), ultimately resulting in protein leakage from compromised cell membranes, inducing DNA damage and upregulating pro-oxidative genes intracellular. The AuNCs also speed up the wound healing process without noticeable hemolytic activity or cytotoxicity to erythrocytes and mammalian tissue. Altogether, the results indicate the great promise of ATT-AuNCs for treating multidrug-resistant E. coli bacterial infection.

Abstract
We report a low-cost and highly sensitive label-free SERS biosensor for pathogen detection. Herein, this study prepared 4-formylphenylboric acid (FPBA) functionalized magnetic nanoparticles to adsorb pathogenic bacteria through boric acid affinity principle, and used aptamer modified Au@AgNPs as SERS substrate to specifically combine with pathogenic bacteria to form a sandwich structure. The pathogenic bacteria were detected by portable Raman spectrometer for SERS detection, and the fingerprint signals of pathogenic bacteria were analyzed by principal component analysis (PCA) to achieve the purpose of classification and identification of pathogenic bacteria. Under the optimized conditions, the SERS detection of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) was 102 ∼ 106 CFU/mL (R2 = 0.9925), and the limit of detection (LOD) was 34 CFU/mL. The linear range of Escherichia coli (E. coli) showed a good linear relationship in the range of 102 ∼ 106 CFU/mL (R2 = 0.9993), and the LOD was 18 CFU/mL. The whole detection process was used the portable Raman spectrometer, which makes it suitable for the application of point-of-care testing (POCT).

Abstract
Photophoretic Au@MoS2 micromotors are used as smart mobile substrates for dynamic surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) sensing. The photophoretic capabilities and swarming-like propulsion of the micromotors allow for their schooling and accumulation in the measuring spot, increasing the density of SERS-active gold nanoparticles for Raman mapping and, simultaneously, the preconcentration of the target analyte. The generation of "hot-microflake spots" directly in the Raman irradiation point results in a 15-18-fold enhancement in the detection of crystal violet without the requirement for additional external sources for propulsion. Moreover, the reproducible collective micromotor motion does not depend on the exact position of the laser spot concerning individual micromotors, which greatly simplifies the experimental setup, avoiding the requirements of sophisticated equipment. The strategy was further applied for the detection of malachite green and paraquat with a good signal enhancement. The new on-the-move-based SERS strategy holds great promise for on-site detection with portable instrumentation in a myriad of environmental monitoring and clinical applications.

Abstract
Rapid, universal, and accurate identification of bacteria in their natural states is necessary for on-site environmental monitoring and fundamental microbial research. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy emerges as an attractive tool due to its molecule-specific spectral fingerprinting and multiplexing capabilities, as well as portability and speed of readout. Here, we develop a SERS-based surface chemotaxonomy that uses bacterial extracellular matrices (ECMs) as proxy biosignatures to hierarchically classify bacteria based on their shared surface biochemical characteristics to eventually identify six distinct bacterial species at >98% classification accuracy. Corroborating with in silico simulations, we establish a three-way inter-relation between the bacteria identity, their ECM surface characteristics, and their SERS spectral fingerprints. The SERS spectra effectively capture multitiered surface biochemical insights including ensemble surface characteristics, e.g., charge and biochemical profiles, and molecular-level information, e.g., types and numbers of functional groups. Our surface chemotaxonomy thus offers an orthogonal taxonomic definition to traditional classification methods and is achieved without gene amplification, biochemical testing, or specific biomarker recognition, which holds great promise for point-of-need applications and microbial research.

Abstract
Biosensors have rapidly emerged as a high-sensitivity and convenient detection method. Among various types of biosensors, optical and electrochemical are the most commonly used. Conventionally, antibodies have been employed to ensure specific interaction between the transmission material and analytes. However, there has been increasing recognition of peptides as a promising recognition element for biosensor development in recent years. The use of peptides as recognition elements provides high level of specificity, sensitivity, and stability for the detection process. The combination of peptide designs and optical or electrochemical detection methods has significantly improved biosensor efficacy. These advancements present opportunities for developing biosensors with diverse functions that can be used to lay a strong scientific foundation for the development of personalized medicine and various other fields. This paper reviews the recent advancements in the development and application of peptide-based optical and electrochemical biosensors, as well as their prospects as a sensor type.

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
The treatment of Staphylococcus aureus skin and soft tissue infections faces several challenges, such as the increased incidence of antibiotic-resistant strains and the fact that the antibiotics available to treat methicillin-resistant S. aureus present low bioavailability, are not easily metabolized, and cause severe secondary effects. Moreover, besides the susceptibility pattern of the S. aureus isolates detected in vitro, during patient treatment, the antibiotics may never encounter the bacteria because S. aureus hides within biofilms or inside eukaryotic cells. In addition, vascular compromise as well as other comorbidities of the patient may impede proper arrival to the skin when the antibiotic is given parenterally. In this manuscript, we revise some of the more promising strategies to improve antibiotic sensitivity, bioavailability, and delivery, including the combination of antibiotics with bactericidal nanomaterials, chemical inhibitors, antisense oligonucleotides, and lytic enzymes, among others. In addition, alternative non-antibiotic-based experimental therapies, including the delivery of antimicrobial peptides, bioactive glass nanoparticles or nanocrystalline cellulose, phototherapies, and hyperthermia, are also reviewed.

Abstract
A new lateral flow immunoassay strip (LFIA) combining sensitive detection and identification of multiple bacteria remains a huge challenge. In this study, we first developed multifunctional urchin-shaped Au-Ag@Pt nanoparticles (UAA@P NPs) with a unique combination of colorimetric-SERS-photothermal-catalytic (CM/SERS/PT/CL) properties and integrated them with LFIA for multiplexed detection and specific discrimination of pathogenic bacteria in blood samples. Unlike the conventional LFIA that relied on antibody (Ab), this novel LFIA introduced 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (4-MPBA) as an ideal Ab replacer that was functionalized on UAA@P NPs (UAA@P/M NPs) with outstanding binding and enrichment capacities toward bacteria. Taking Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) as model bacteria, the limit of detection (LOD) was 3 CFU/mL for SERS-LFIA, 27 CFU/mL for PT-LFIA, and 18 CFU/mL for CL-LFIA, three of which were over 330-fold, 37-fold, and 55-fold more sensitive than ordinary visual CM-LFIA, respectively. Besides, this SERS-LFIA is capable of identifying three types of bacterial spiked blood samples (E. coli, S. aureus, and P. aeruginosa) effectively according to specific bacterial Raman "fingerprints" by partial least-squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA). More importantly, this LFIA was successfully applied to blood samples with satisfactory recoveries from 90.3% to 108.8% and capable of identifying the infected patients (N = 4) from healthy subjects (N = 2) with great accuracy. Overall, the multimodal LFIA incorporates bacteria discrimination and quantitative detection, offering an avenue for early warning and diagnosis of bacterial infection.

Abstract
Water scarcity is a world issue, and a solution to address it is the use of treated wastewater. Indeed, in these wastewaters, pollutants such as pharmaceuticals, pesticides, herbicides, and heavy ions can be present at high concentrations. Thus, several analytical techniques were initiated throughout recent years for the detection and quantification of pollutants in different types of water. Among them, the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technique was examined due to its high sensitivity and its ability to provide details on the molecular structure. Herein, we summarize the most recent advances (2021-2023) on SERS sensors of pollutants in water treatment. In this context, we present the results obtained with the SERS sensors in terms of detection limits serving as assessment of SERS performances of these sensors for the detection of various pollutants.

Abstract
In this work, a kind of multifunctional magnetic plasmonic photocatalyst was prepared by a green and efficient process. Magnetic mesoporous anatase titanium dioxide (Fe3O4@mTiO2) was synthesized by microwave-assisted hydrothermal, and Ag NPs were simultaneously in-situ grown on Fe3O4@mTiO2 (Fe3O4@mTiO2@Ag), graphene oxide (GO) was then wrapped on Fe3O4@mTiO2@Ag (Fe3O4@mTiO2@Ag@GO) to increase its adsorption capacity for fluoroquinolone antibiotics (FQs). Owing to the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect of Ag, as well as the photocatalytic capacity of TiO2, a multifunctional platform based on Fe3O4@mTiO2@Ag@GO was constructed for adsorption, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) monitoring and photodegradation of FQs in water. The quantitative SERS detection of norfloxacin (NOR), ciprofloxacin (CIP), and enrofloxacin (ENR) was demonstrated with LOD of 0.1 μg mL-1, and the qualitative analysis was confirmed by density functional theory (DFT) calculation. The photocatalytic degradation rate of NOR over Fe3O4@mTiO2@Ag@GO was about 4.6 and 1.4 times faster than that of Fe3O4@mTiO2 and Fe3O4@mTiO2@Ag, indicating the synergetic effects of Ag NPs and GO, the used Fe3O4@mTiO2@Ag@GO can be easily recovered and recycled for at least 5 times. Thus, the eco-friendly magnetic plasmonic photocatalyst provided a potential solution for the removal and monitoring of residual FQs in environmental water.

Abstract
In this work, a novel surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sandwich strategy biosensing platform has been established for simultaneously detecting Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). Fe3O4@SiO2-Au nanocomposites (NCs) with varying amounts of Au nanocrystals were prepared, and the effect of interparticle gaps on SERS activity was studied by finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. The optimal magnetic SERS-active substrates (FS-A5) were functionalized with the specific aptamers to act as capture probes. Meanwhile, graphene oxide-Au nanostars (GO-Au NSs) decorated with Raman reporters and aptamers were used as SERS tags. The loading density of Au NSs on GO was tuned to change the number of SERS active sites. In this proposal, E. coli and S. aureus were first captured by capture probes and then bound with SERS tags to form a sandwich-like structure, which caused enhanced electromagnetic field because of the dual enhancement strategy. Under optimal conditions, SERS platform could detect E. coli and S. aureus simultaneously, and the detection limit was as low as 10 cfu/mL. Our sandwich assay-based dual-enhanced SERS platform provides a new idea for simultaneously detecting multiple pathogens with high selectivity and sensitivity, and thus will have more hopeful prospects in the field of food safety.

Abstract
Ultra-sensitive detection of cancer-related biomarkers in serum is of great significance for early diagnosis, treatment, prognosis, and staging of cancer. In this work, we proposed a surface-enhanced Raman scattering and fluorescence (SERS/FL) dual-mode biosensor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)-related miRNA (miR-224) detection using the composition of well-arranged Au nanoarrays (Au NAs) substrate coupled with the target-catalyzed hairpin assembly (CHA) strategy. The hot spots densely and uniformly distributed on the Au array offers considerably enhanced and reproducible SERS signals, along with their wide and open surface to facilitate miR-224 adsorption. By this sensing strategy, the target miR-224 can be detected in a wide linear range (1 fM to 1 nM) with a limit of detection of 0.34 fM in the SERS mode and 0.39 fM in the FL mode. Meanwhile, this biosensor with exceptional specificity and anti-interference ability can discriminate target miR-224 from other interference miRNAs. Practical analysis of human blood samples also demonstrated considerable reliability and repeatability of our developed strategy. Furthermore, this biosensor can distinguish HCC cancer subjects from normal ones and monitor HCC patients before and after hepatectomy as well as guide the distinct Barcelona clinic liver cancer (BCLC) stages. Overall, benefiting from a well-arranged Au nanoarray, CHA amplification strategy, and SERS/metal enhanced fluorescence effect, this established biosensor opens new avenues for the early prediction, warning, monitoring, and staging of HCC.

Abstract
Rapid control and prevention of diseases caused by foodborne pathogens is one of the existing food safety regulatory issues faced by various countries and has received wide attention from all sectors of society. The development of rapid and reliable detection methods for foodborne pathogens remains a hot research area for food safety and public health because of the limitations of complex steps, time-consuming, low sensitivity, or poor selectivity of commonly used methods. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), as a novel spectroscopic technique, has the advantages of high sensitivity, selectivity, rapid and nondestructive detection and has exhibited broad application prospects in the determination of pathogenic bacteria. In this study, the enhancement mechanisms of SERS are briefly introduced, then the characteristics and properties of liquid-phase, rigid solid-phase, and flexible solid-phase are categorized. Furthermore, a comprehensive review of the advances in label-free or label-based SERS strategies and SERS-compatible techniques for the detection of foodborne pathogens is provided, and the advantages and disadvantages of these methods are reviewed. Finally, the current challenges of SERS technology applied in practical applications are listed, and the possible development trends of SERS in the field of foodborne pathogens detection in the future are discussed.

Real-time SERS monitoring anticancer drug release along with SERS/MR imaging for pH-sensitive chemo-phototherapy. Acta Pharm Sin B 2023; 13:1303-1317. [PMID: 36970207 PMCID: PMC10031148 DOI: 10.1016/j.apsb.2022.08.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2022] [Revised: 07/28/2022] [Accepted: 08/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
Abstract
In situ and real-time monitoring of responsive drug release is critical for the assessment of pharmacodynamics in chemotherapy. In this study, a novel pH-responsive nanosystem is proposed for real-time monitoring of drug release and chemo-phototherapy by surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). The Fe3O4@Au@Ag nanoparticles (NPs) deposited graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposites with a high SERS activity and stability are synthesized and labeled with a Raman reporter 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (4-MPBA) to form SERS probes (GO-Fe3O4@Au@Ag-MPBA). Furthermore, doxorubicin (DOX) is attached to SERS probes through a pH-responsive linker boronic ester (GO-Fe3O4@Au@Ag-MPBA-DOX), accompanying the 4-MPBA signal change in SERS. After the entry into tumor, the breakage of boronic ester in the acidic environment gives rise to the release of DOX and the recovery of 4-MPBA SERS signal. Thus, the DOX dynamic release can be monitored by the real-time changes of 4-MPBA SERS spectra. Additionally, the strong T2 magnetic resonance (MR) signal and NIR photothermal transduction efficiency of the nanocomposites make it available for MR imaging and photothermal therapy (PTT). Altogether, this GO-Fe3O4@Au@Ag-MPBA-DOX can simultaneously fulfill the synergistic combination of cancer cell targeting, pH-sensitive drug release, SERS-traceable detection and MR imaging, endowing it great potential for SERS/MR imaging-guided efficient chemo-phototherapy on cancer treatment.

Abstract
A sandwich-structured SERS biosensor has been constructed for simultaneous detection of multiple pathogenic bacteria, consisting of non-interfering SERS probes for bacterial labeling and ConA-functionalizd magnetic nanoparticles for bacteria extraction. A the preparation method of PP3 SERS probe with high Raman activity is reported for the first time. Since the PP3 SERS probe has a very strong Raman peak at 2081 cm-1 in the "Raman silent region," the mixed SERS probe formed with MP1 and DP2 can meet the needs of multiple foodborne pathogen detection. Significantly, S. aureus, E. coli, and P. aeruginosa can be successfully extracted upon external magnetic field, and the limit of detection (LOD) is 1 CFU‧mL-1, lower than that of the congeneric detectors. This work paves a new way for the construction of a novel detector and absorbent for different bacteria in complex samples by using SERS probe.

Abstract
The rapid diagnosis and detection of respiratory bacteria at the early stage can effectively control the epidemic spread and bacterial infection. Here, we designed a rapid, ultrasensitive, and quantitative lateral flow immunoassay (LFA) strip for simultaneous detection of respiratory bacteria S. aureus and S. pneumoniae. In this assay, the surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) tags were designed through combining magnetite Raman enhancement nanoparticle Fe3O4@Au/DTNB and recognition element 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (4-MPBA). Further, 4-MPBA could capture multiple bacteria in a complex environmental solution. Based on the strategies, Fe3O4@Au/DTNB-mediated magnetic enrichment and 4-MPBA-mediated universal capture capabilities improved the detection sensitivity, the limits of detection for S. aureus and S. pneumoniae were as low as 8 and 13 CFU mL-1, respectively, which were more sensitive than those of colloidal gold method. The Fe3O4@Au/DTNB/Au/4-MPBA-LFA also exhibited good reproducibility, excellent specificity, and high recovery rates in sputum samples, indicating its potential application in the detection of respiratory bacteria samples.

Abstract
The world today is witnessing the significant role and huge demand for molecular detection and screening in healthcare and medical diagnosis, especially during the outbreak of COVID-19. Surface-enhanced spectroscopy techniques, including Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) and Infrared Absorption (SEIRA), provide lattice and molecular vibrational fingerprint information which is directly linked to the molecular constituents, chemical bonds, and configuration. These properties make them an unambiguous, nondestructive, and label-free toolkit for molecular diagnostics and screening. However, new issues in molecular diagnostics, such as increasing molecular species, faster spread of viruses, and higher requirements for detection accuracy and sensitivity, have brought great challenges to detection technology. Advancements in artificial intelligence and machine learning (ML) techniques show promising potential in empowering SERS and SEIRA with rapid analysis and automatic data processing to jointly tackle the challenge. This review introduces the combination of ML and SERS/SEIRA by investigating how ML algorithms can be beneficial to SERS/SEIRA, discussing the general process of combining ML and SEIRA/SERS, highlighting the molecular diagnostics and screening applications based on ML-combined SEIRA/SERS, and providing perspectives on the future development of ML-integrated SEIRA/SERS. In general, this review offers comprehensive knowledge about the recent advances and the future outlook regarding ML-integrated SEIRA/SERS for molecular diagnostics and screening.

Abstract
Emerging antibiotic resistant bacteria constitute one of the biggest threats to public health. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is highly promising for detecting such bacteria and for antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST). SERS is fast, non-destructive (can probe living cells) and it is technologically flexible (readily integrated with robotics and machine learning algorithms). However, in order to integrate into efficient point-of-care (PoC) devices and to effectively replace the current culture-based methods, it needs to overcome the challenges of reliability, cost and complexity. Recently, significant progress has been made with the emergence of both new questions and new promising directions of research and technological development. This article brings together insights from several representative SERS-based AST studies and approaches oriented towards clinical PoC biosensing. It aims to serve as a reference source that can guide progress towards PoC routines for identifying antibiotic resistant pathogens. In turn, such identification would help to trace the origin of sporadic infections, in order to prevent outbreaks and to design effective medical treatment and preventive procedures.

Abstract
Outbreaks of foodborne diseases mediated by food microorganisms and toxins remain one of the leading causes of disease and death worldwide. It not only poses a serious threat to human health and safety but also imposes a huge burden on health care and socioeconomics. Traditional methods for the removal and detection of pathogenic bacteria and toxins in various samples such as food and drinking water have certain limitations, requiring a rapid and sensitive strategy for the enrichment and separation of target analytes. Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) exhibit excellent performance in this field due to their fascinating properties. The strategy of combining biorecognition elements with MNPs can be used for fast and efficient enrichment and isolation of pathogens. In this review, we describe new trends and practical applications of magnetic nanoseparation technology in the detection of foodborne microorganisms and toxins. We mainly summarize the biochemical modification and functionalization methods of commonly used magnetic nanomaterial carriers and discuss the application of magnetic separation combined with other instrumental analysis techniques. Combined with various detection techniques, it will increase the efficiency of detection and identification of microorganisms and toxins in rapid assays.

Abstract
To gain superior signal-enhanced performance, metal nanocrystals serving as building blocks can be collectively assembled into a hierarchically ordered structure for creating multiple hotspots. However, the collaborative assembly of anisotropic crystals to form a hotspot-rich structure remains a challenging task. In this study, controllable shear was introduced to a soft liquid-liquid interface to provide a unique environment for the snowball assembly of silver pompon architectures (Ag-PAs). Micrometer-scale 3D plasmonic Ag pompon architectures composed of densely packed nanoparticles (NPs) are fabricated using shear-mediating crystal growth dynamics. The crystal morphology and size are easily controlled by tuning the interfacial shear and diffusion pathways. The hotspot-rich Ag-PAs with high sensitivity (LOD = 1.1 × 10-13 mol/L) exhibit a superior Raman enhancement performance, which is comparable to some bimetals.

Abstract
The abuse of antibiotics has led to the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacterial strains worldwide, which greatly threatens human health. In the present work, we developed single-atom catalysts (SACs) with atomically dispersed Fe as catalytic sites (Fe-SACs) to combat multidrug-resistant bacteria by elevating cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS). Our intensive studies confirmed that Fe-SACs were successfully prepared and exhibited excellent catalase (CAT)-, oxidase (OXD)-, and peroxidase (POD)-like activities. To enhance water dispersibility, biosafety and the interactions between the nanodrugs and gram-positive bacteria, phenylboronic acid group-functionalized carboxylated chitosan (CCS-PBA) was coated on the surface of Fe-SACs to yield Fe-SACs@CCS-PBA for in vitro and in vivo studies. The synergistic catalytic activity and photothermal activity of Fe-SACs@CCS-PBA effectively overcame multidrug-resistant bacterial strains (MRSA) in vitro and significantly accelerated wound healing in vivo, suggesting the great potential of SACs to overcome infectious disease caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria.

Abstract
Ultra-sensitive detection of pathogenic bacteria is of great significance in the early stage of bacterial infections and treatment. In this work, we report a novel strategy using multifunctional Au nano-bridged nanogap nanoparticles (Au NNPs)-based sandwich nanocomposites, that made of Concanavalin A-conjugated Fe3O4@SiO2 NPs (ConA-Fe3O4@SiO2 NPs)/bacteria/aptamer-modified Au NNPs (apt-Au NNPs), for bacteria discrimination and quantitative detection by surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), and subsequently photothermal antibacterial assay. The sandwich nanocomposite consists of ConA-Fe3O4@SiO2 NPs to magnetically enrich and photothermal killing bacteria, and dual-signal tags of apt-Au NNPs for both SERS sensing and ICP-MS quantification. This strategy can specifically distinguish different kinds of pathogenic bacteria, and provided a good linear relationship of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) in the range from 50 to 104 CFU/mL with a detection limit of 11 CFU/mL, as well as realized ultralow amounts of bacterial detection in serum sample with high accuracy. Based on the quantitative detection, high antibacterial efficiency was monitored by ICP-MS. Overall, the established method combines bacteria discrimination, quantitative detection, and photothermal elimination with a simple and rapid process, which provides a novel way for the early diagnosis and treatment of bacterial infection.

Abstract
Foodborne pathogens contamination is one of the main sources of food safety problems. Although the existing detection methods have been developed for a long time, the complexity of food samples is still the main factor affecting the detection time and sensitivity, and the rapid separation and enrichment of pathogens is still an objective to be studied. Magnetic separation strategy based on magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) is considered to be an effective tool for rapid separation and enrichment of foodborne pathogens in food. Therefore, this study comprehensively reviews the development of MNPs in the separation of foodborne pathogens over the past decade. First, various biorecognition reagents for identification of foodborne pathogens and their modifications on the surface of MNPs are introduced. Then, the factors affecting the separation of foodborne pathogens, including the size of MNPs, modification methods, separation strategies and separation forms are discussed. Finally, the application of MNPs in integrated detection methods is reviewed. Moreover, current challenges and prospects of MNPs for the analysis of foodborne pathogens are discussed. Further research should focus on the design of multifunctional MNPs, the processing of large-scale samples, the simultaneous analysis of multiple targets, and the development of all-in-one small analytical device with separation and detection.

Ag nanoparticle in situ decorated on Ti 3C 2T x with excellent SERS and EIS immunoassay performance for beta-human chorionic gonadotropin. Mikrochim Acta 2022; 189:348. [PMID: 36002597 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-022-05426-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2022] [Accepted: 07/21/2022] [Indexed: 10/15/2022]
Abstract
Two-dimensional transition metal carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides (MXene), with excellent optical and electrical properties, are promising substrates for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and electrochemical sensors. Therefore, a unique 3D-decorated structure containing silver (Ag) nanoparticles and Ti3C2Tx was designed as the substrates of SERS and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) immunosensors. The Ag/Ti3C2Tx composite significantly increases Raman intensity, which is attributed to the synergistic effect of Ti3C2Tx and Ag nanoparticles. Based on the SERS performance of the Ag/Ti3C2Tx composite, the magnetic properties of Fe3O4 and the specificity of antigen-antibody, a sandwich-structured SERS immunosensor is constructed, which can effectively detect trace amounts of beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG). The SERS immunosensor exhibits a wide linear range of 5.0 × 10-6-1.0 mIU mL-1, and a low detection limit of 9.0 × 10-7 mIU mL-1. Meanwhile, the Ag/Ti3C2Tx-based EIS immunosensor is constructed for the portable detection of β-hCG, which exhibits a wide linear range of 5.0 × 10-2-1.0 × 102 mIU mL-1, a low detection limit of 9.5 × 10-3 mIU mL-1. Moreover, two immunosensors can be used to detect actual serum samples with satisfactory recovery (98.5-102.2%). This work could guide the design of low-cost, sensitive, flexible, and portable biosensors. The SERS and EIS substrates composited with Ti3C2Tx and Ag nanoparticles enable excellent performance for detecting β-hCG.

Abstract
Phenotyping of bacteria with vibrational spectroscopy has caught much attention in bacteria-related research. It is known that many factors could affect this process. Among them, solution pH maintenance is crucial, yet its impact on the bacterial SERS spectra is surprisingly neglected. In this work, we focused on two situations related to pH maintenance: the effect of the same buffer on the SERS spectra of bacteria under different pH values, and the influence of different buffers on the SERS spectra of bacteria under the same pH value. Specifically, Britton-Robison (BR) buffer was used to evaluate the effect of pH value on bacteria SERS spectra thanks to its wide pH range. Four different buffers, namely BR buffer, acetate buffer, phosphate buffer, and carbonate buffer, were used to illustrate the impact of buffer types on SERS spectra of bacteria. The results showed that the intensity and number of characteristic peaks of the SERS spectra of Gram-negative (G -) bacteria changed more significantly than Gram-positive (G +) bacteria with the change of pH value. Furthermore, compared with phosphate buffer and carbonate buffer, BR buffer could bring more characteristic SERS bands with better reproducibility, but slightly inferior to acetate buffer. In conclusion, the influence of the pH and types of the buffer on the SERS spectra of bacteria are worthy of further discussion.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) stands out in the field of microbial analysis due to its rich molecular information, fast analysis speed, and high sensitivity. However, achieving strain-level differentiation is still challenging because numerous bacterial species inevitably have very similar SERS profiles. Here, a method inspired by the black-box theory was proposed to boost the spectral differences, where the undifferentiated bacteria was considered as a type of black-box, external environmental stress was used as the input, and the SERS spectra of bacteria exposed to the same stress was output. For proof of the concept, three types of environmental stress were explored, i.e., ethanol, ultraviolet light (UV), and ultrasound. Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) and three types of Escherichia coli (E. coli) were all subjected to the stimuli (stress) before SERS measurement. Then the collected spectra were processed only by simple principal component analysis (PCA) to achieve differentiation. The results showed that appropriate stress was beneficial to increase the differences in bacterial SERS spectra. When sonication at 490 W for 60 s was used as the input, the optimal differentiation of bacteria at the species (E. faecalis and E. coli) and strain-level (three E. coli) can be achieved.

Abstract
As the human population grows, the anthropogenic impacts from various agricultural and industrial processes produce unwanted contaminants in the environment. The accurate, sensitive and rapid detection of such contaminants is vital for human health and safety. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a valuable analytical tool with wide applications in environmental contaminant monitoring. The aim of this review is to summarize recent advancements within SERS research as it applies to environmental detection, with a focus on research published or accessible from January 2021 through December 2021 including early-access publications. Our goal is to provide a wide breadth of information that can be used to provide background knowledge of the field, as well as inform and encourage further development of SERS techniques in protecting environmental quality and safety. Specifically, we highlight the characteristics of effective SERS nanosubstrates, and explore methods for the SERS detection of inorganic, organic, and biological contaminants including heavy metals, pharmaceuticals, plastic particles, synthetic dyes, pesticides, viruses, bacteria and mycotoxins. We also discuss the current limitations of SERS technologies in environmental detection and propose several avenues for future investigation. We encourage researchers to fill in the identified gaps so that SERS can be implemented in a real-world environment more effectively and efficiently, ultimately providing reliable and timely data to help and make science-based strategies and policies to protect environmental safety and public health.

Abstract
New strategies combining sensitive pathogenic bacterial detection and high antimicrobial efficacy are urgently desirable. Here, we report smart triple-functional Au-Ag-stuffed nanopancakes (AAS-NPs) exhibiting (1) controllably oxidative Ag-etching thickness for simultaneously obtaining the best surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) enhancement and high Ag-loading antibacterial drug delivery, (2) expressive Ag+-accelerated releasing capability under neutral phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) (pH ∼ 7.4) stimulus and robust antibacterial effectiveness involving sustainable Ag+ release, and (3) three-in-one features combining specific discrimination, sensitive detection, and inactivation of different pathogenic bacteria. Originally, AAS-NPs were synthesized by particle growth of the selective Ag-etched Au@Ag nanoparticles with K3[Fe(CN)6], followed by the formation of an unstable Prussian blue analogue for specifically binding with bacteria through the cyano group. Using specific bacterial "fingerprints" resulting from the introduction of dual-function 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (4-MPBA, serving as both the SERS tag and internal standard) and a SERS sandwich nanostructure that was made of bacteria/SERS tags/AAS-NPs, three bacteria (E. coli, S. aureus, and P. aeruginosa) were highly sensitively discriminated and detected, with a limit of detection of 7 CFU mL-1. Meanwhile, AAS-NPs killed 99% of 1 × 105 CFU mL-1 bacteria within 60 min under PBS (pH ∼ 7.4) pretreatment. Antibacterial activities of PBS-stimulated AAS-NPs against S. aureus, E. coli, and P. aeruginosa were extraordinarily increased by 64-fold, 72-fold, and 72-fold versus PBS-untreated AAS-NPs, respectively. The multiple functions of PBS-stimulated AAS-NPs were validated by bacterial sensing, inactivation in human blood samples, and bacterial biofilm disruption. Our work exhibits an effective strategy for simultaneous bacterial sensing and inactivation.

Abstract
A system for the rapid and ultra-sensitive detection of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), a prevalent foodborne pathogen is introduced. Limitations of typical electrochemical sensing, often subjected to interference from non-specific protein adsorption are addressed. A dual-aptamer-based sandwich immunobiosensor is shown for its benefits regarding specificity and anti-fouling capacity, endowed by a sulfonated polyaniline layer combined with signal amplification via highly conductive gold nanoparticles. EIS spectra (Nyquist plots) were recorded at pH 7.4 PBS containing 5 mM Fe(CN)63-/Fe(CN)64-, in order to verify the possibility of the electrochemical sensing for detection of S. aureus. Results demonstrated that the constructed immunobiosensor presents an extended detection range (1 × 101 to 1 × 105 CFU/mL) and detection limit as low as 2 CFU/mL. The resistance values of the immunobiosensor developed maintain at a stable value during 2 weeks. Besides, the specificity of the system is highlighted by testing raw milk, and the results of which demonstrate the excellent prospects of the system for monitoring foodborne pathogens.

Abstract
Severe infections can cause a dysregulated response leading to organ dysfunction known as sepsis. Sepsis can be lethal if not identified and treated right away. This requires measuring biomarkers and pathogens rapidly at the different points where sepsis care is provided. Current commercial approaches for sepsis diagnosis are not fast, sensitive, and/or specific enough for meeting this medical challenge. In this article, we review recent advances in the development of diagnostic tools for sepsis management based on micro- and nanostructured materials. We start with a brief introduction to the most popular biomarkers for sepsis diagnosis (lactate, procalcitonin, cytokines, C-reactive protein, and other emerging protein and non-protein biomarkers including miRNAs and cell-based assays) and methods for detecting bacteremia. We then highlight the role of nano- and microstructured materials in developing biosensors for detecting them taking into consideration the particular needs of every point of sepsis care (e.g., ultrafast detection of multiple protein biomarkers for diagnosing in triage, emergency room, ward, and intensive care unit; quantitative detection to de-escalate treatment; ultrasensitive and culture-independent detection of blood pathogens for personalized antimicrobial therapies; robust, portable, and web-connected biomarker tests outside the hospital). We conclude with an overview of the most utilized nano- and microstructured materials used thus far for solving issues related to sepsis diagnosis and point to new challenges for future development.

Abstract
Glycoproteins are a class of proteins with significant biological functions and clinical implications. Due to glycoproteins' reliability for the quantitative analysis, they have been used as biomarkers and therapeutic targets for disease diagnosis. We propose a sandwich structure-based boronate affinity biosensor that can separate and detect target glycoproteins by magnetic separation and Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) probes. The biosensor relies on boronic acid affinity magnetic molecularly imprinted polymer (MMIPs) with pH response as "capturing probe" for glycoproteins, and Au-MPBA@Ag modified with 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (MPBA) as SERS probes, among which, MPBA has both strong SERS activity and can specifically recognize and bind to glycoproteins. MMIPs ensured specific and rapid analysis, and SERS detection provided high sensitivity. The proposed boronate affinity SERS strategy exhibited universal applicability and provided high sensitivity with limit of detection of 0.053 ng/mL and 0.078 ng/mL for horseradish peroxidase and acid phosphatase, respectively. Ultimately, the boronate affinity SERS strategy was successfully applied in detection of glycoprotein in spiked serum sample with recovery between 90.6% and 103.4%, respectively. In addition, this study used a portable Raman meter, which can meet the requirements of point-of-care testing. The biosensor presented here also has advantages in terms of cost-effectiveness, stability, and detection speed.

Abstract
Magnetic cell separation has become a key methodology for the isolation of target cell populations from biological suspensions, covering a wide spectrum of applications from diagnosis and therapy in biomedicine to environmental applications or fundamental research in biology. There now exists a great variety of commercially available separation instruments and reagents, which has permitted rapid dissemination of the technology. However, there is still an increasing demand for new tools and protocols which provide improved selectivity, yield and sensitivity of the separation process while reducing cost and providing a faster response. This review aims to introduce basic principles of magnetic cell separation for the neophyte, while giving an overview of recent research in the field, from the development of new cell labeling strategies to the design of integrated microfluidic cell sorters and of point-of-care platforms combining cell selection, capture, and downstream detection. Finally, we focus on clinical, industrial and environmental applications where magnetic cell separation strategies are amongst the most promising techniques to address the challenges of isolating rare cells.

Abstract
This work demonstrated an ultrasensitive and simple microfluidic immunosensor for point-of-care test of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) based on the stir bar enrichment and DNAzyme-assisted click reaction. Initially, S. aureus was enriched by the 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid-functionalized stir bar. The yolk antibody (immunoglobulin Y) and copper-labeled polydopamine nanoparticles were then specifically conjugated with the captured target. The Cu(II) was released under acidic conditions and effectively catalyzed the copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) between the alkyne group-labeled DNAzyme and the streptavidin-biotin-azido with the assistance of DNAzyme. Finally, the DNAzyme-streptavidin complexes were detected by microfluidic chips to quantify S. aureus. Under optimum conditions, this immunosensor showed good detection performances toward S. aureus within 10 to 2.5 × 104 CFU/mL with a limit of detection of 3 CFU/mL. Moreover, the satisfying detection results of real samples of animal origin also implied that this immunosensor owned great potential in practical applications.

Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa), a ubiquitous opportunistic pathogen, can frequently cause chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cystic fibrosis and chronic wounds, and potentially lead to severe morbidity and mortality. Timely and adequate treatment of nosocomial infection in clinic depends on rapid detection and accurate identification of P. aeruginosa and its early-stage antibiotic susceptibility test. Traditional methods like plating culture, polymerase chain reaction, and enzyme-linked immune sorbent assays are time-consuming and require expensive equipment, limiting the rapid diagnostic application. Advanced sensing strategy capable of fast, sensitive and simple detection with low cost has therefore become highly desired in point of care testing (POCT) of nosocomial pathogens. Within this review, advanced detection and sensing strategies for P. aeruginosa cells along with associated quorum sensing (QS) molecules over the last ten years are discussed and summarized. Firstly, the principles of four commonly used sensing strategies including localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR), surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), electrochemistry, and fluorescence are briefly overviewed. Then, the advancement of the above sensing techniques for P. aeruginosa cells and its QS biomarkers detection are introduced, respectively. In addition, the integration with novel compatible platforms towards clinical application is highlighted in each section. Finally, the current achievements are summarized along with proposed challenges and prospects.
