Abstract
This work aims at the detection of the important herbicide glyphosate based on the previous modification of glyphosate in two stages and final detection by surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). In a first step, the affinity of glyphosate for metal plasmonic surfaces was increased by inclusion of a sulphur containing group (dithiocarbamate). In a second step, the cyclization of the latter intermediate rendered a thiazole derivative of the herbicide. The latter compound exhibits higher Raman cross section which leads to stronger SERS enhancement factors. The second step was possible thanks to the plasmon catalysis driven by metal nanoparticles, specifically silver adatoms created at the surface, and irradiated at a proper wavelength. This methodology was optimized by selecting the most appropriate experimental conditions for the chemical reactions. Density Functional Theory treatment of all the involved molecules was done in order to obtain the theoretical spectra and to identify the structural marker bands. A key goal of this work was to develop an effective system of glyphosate detection based on portable PickMolTM technology developed and patented by the SAFTRA Photonics Ltd. company to ensure an easy, quick, low cost, in-situ, and univocal detection of glyphosate in the environment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Presently, glyphosate (Gly) is the most extensively used herbicide globally, Nevertheless, its excessive usage has increased its accumulation in off-target locations, and aroused concerns for food and environmental safety. Commonly used detection methods, such as high-performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography, have limitations due to expensive instruments, complex pre-processing steps, and inadequate sensitivity. Therefore, a facile, sensitive, and reliable Gly detection method should be developed. RESULTS A photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensor consisting of a three-dimensional polymer phenylethnylcopper/nitrogen-doped graphene aerogel (PPhECu/3DNGA) electrode coupled with Fe3O4 NPs nanozyme was constructed for sensitive detection of Gly. The microscopic 3D network of electrodes offered fast transfer routes for photo-generated electrons and a large surface area for nanozyme loading, allowing high signal output and analytical sensitivity. Furthermore, the use of peroxidase-mimicking Fe3O4 NPs instead of natural enzyme improved the stability of the sensor against ambient temperature changes. Based on the inhibitory effect of Gly on the catalytic activity Fe3O4 NPs, the protocol achieved Gly detection in the range of 5 × 10-10 to 1 × 10-4 mol L-1. Additionally, feasibility of the detection was confirmed in real agricultural matrix including tea, maize seedlings, maize seeds and soil. SIGNIFICANCE This work achieved facile, sensitive and reliable analysis towards Gly, and it was expected to inspire the design and utilization of 3D architectures in monitoring agricultural chemicals in food and environmental matrix.

Molecules 2024; 29:1503. [PMID: 38611782 PMCID: PMC11013303 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29071503] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2024] [Revised: 03/25/2024] [Accepted: 03/26/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
A sensitive and simple method for detecting Cu2+ in the water source was proposed by using surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectroscopy (SERS) based on the Ag@SiO2/Au core-shell composite. The Ag@SiO2 SERS tag was synthesized by a simple approach, in which Ag nanoparticles were first embedded with Raman reporter PATP and next coated with a SiO2 shell. The Ag@SiO2 nanoparticles had strong stability even in a high-concentration salty solution, and there were no changes to their properties and appearance within one month. The Ag@SiO2/Au composite was fabricated through a controllable self-assemble process. L-cysteine was decorated on the surface of a functionalized Ag@SiO2/Au composite, as the amino and carboxyl groups of it can form coordinate covalent bond with Cu2+, which shows that the Ag@SiO2/Au composite labelled with L-cysteine has excellent performance for the detection of Cu2+ in aqueous media. In this study, the SERS detection of Cu2+ was carried out using Ag@SiO2 nanoparticles, and the limit of detection (LOD) as low as 0.1 mg/L was achieved.

Abstract
Handly and easy-to-use optical instrumentation is very important for food safety monitoring, as it provides the possibility to assess law and health compliances at every stage of the food chain. In particular, the Surface-enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) method appears highly promising because the intrinsic drawback of Raman spectroscopy, i.e., the natural weakness of the effect and, in turn, of the signal, is overcome thanks to the peculiar interaction between laser light and plasmonic excitations at the SERS substrate. This fact paved the way for the widespread use of SERS sensing not only for food safety but also for biomedicine, pharmaceutical process analysis, forensic science, cultural heritage and more. However, the current technological maturity of the SERS technique does not find a counterpart in the recognition of SERS as a routine method in compliance protocols. This is mainly due to the very scattered landscape of SERS substrates designed and tailored specifically for the targeted analyte. In fact, a very large variety of SERS substrates were proposed for molecular sensing in different environments and matrices. This review presents the advantages and perspectives of SERS sensing in food safety. The focus of the survey is limited to specific analytes of interest for producers, consumers and stakeholders in Oltrepò Pavese, a definite regional area that is located within the district of Pavia in the northern part of Italy. Our attention has been addressed to (i) glyphosate in rice fields, (ii) histamine in a world-famous local product (wine), (iii) tetracycline, an antibiotic often detected in waste sludges that can be dangerous, for instance in maize crops and (iv) Sudan dyes-used as adulterants-in the production of saffron and other spices, which represent niche crops for Oltrepò. The review aims to highlight the SERS performance for each analyte, with a discussion of the different methods used to prepare SERS substrates and the different reported limits of detection.

Abstract
Nanozymes show great promise in enhancing disease biomarker sensing by leveraging their physicochemical properties and enzymatic activities. These qualities facilitate signal amplification and matrix effects reduction, thus boosting biomarker sensing performance. In this review, recent studies from the last five years, concentrating on disease biomarker detection improvement through nanozyme-based biosensing are examined. This enhancement primarily involves the modulations of the size, morphology, doping, modification, electromagnetic mechanisms, electron conduction efficiency, and surface plasmon resonance effects of nanozymes for increased sensitivity. In addition, a comprehensive description of the synthesis and tuning strategies employed for nanozymes has been provided. This includes a detailed elucidation of their catalytic mechanisms in alignment with the fundamental principles of enhanced sensing technology, accompanied by the presentation of quantitatively analyzed results. Moreover, the diverse applications of nanozymes in strip sensing, colorimetric sensing, electrochemical sensing, and surface-enhanced Raman scattering have been outlined. Additionally, the limitations, challenges, and corresponding recommendations concerning the application of nanozymes in biosensing have been summarized. Furthermore, insights have been offered into the future development and outlook of nanozymes for biosensing. This review aims to serve not only as a reference for enhancing the sensitivity of nanozyme-based biosensors but also as a catalyst for exploring nanozyme properties and their broader applications in biosensing.

Abstract
Glyphosate is one of the most widely used pesticides in the world, but it has been shown to persist in the environment and therefore needs to be detected in food. In this work, the detection of glyphosate by surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) using gold and silver nanoparticles and three different commonly used laser excitations (532, 632, and 785 nm wavelengths) of a Raman microscope complemented with a portable Raman spectrometer with 785 nm excitation is compared. The silver and gold nanosphere SERS substrates were prepared by chemical synthesis. In addition, colorimetric detection of glyphosate using cysteamine-modified gold and silver nanoparticles was also tested. The best results were obtained with Ag NPs at 532 nm excitation with a detection limit of 1 mM and with Au nanoparticles at 785 nm excitation with a detection limit of 100 µM. The SERS spectra of glyphosate with cysteamine-modified silver NPs improved the detection limits by two orders of magnitude for 532 nm excitation, i.e., up to 10 µM, and by one order of magnitude for 632 and 785 nm excitation wavelengths.

Abstract
The development of nanozymes with enhanced catalytic activity has been drawing great interest. Lentinan with special structure may be used to prepare bimetallic nanomaterials to enhance their catalytic activity. Herein, lentinan stabilized PdPt3 dendritic nanoparticles (PdPt3-LNT NDs) were prepared through reduction of Na2PdCl4 and K2PtCl4 with a molar ratio of 1:3 using lentinan as a biological template. PdPt3-LNT NDs had dendritic shape with size of 10.76 ± 1.82 nm. PdPt3-LNT NDs had the hydrodynamic size about 25.7 nm and the zeta potential between -1.4 mV and - 4.9 mV at different pH. Furthermore, PdPt3-LNT NDs catalyzed 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to produce oxidized TMB, suggesting their oxidase-like property. The catalytic activity of PdPt3-LNT NDs was the highest when pH was 4 and the temperature was 40 °C. The catalytic mechanism was the generation of ·O2- and 1O2 from O2 catalyzed by PdPt3-LNT NDs. More importantly, L-cysteine detection method was set up based on the oxidase-like property of PdPt3-LNT NDs. This method had wide linear range for 0-200 μM and low detection limit for 3.099 μM. Taken together, PdPt3-LNT NDs have good potential applications in bio-related detection in the future.

Abstract
Accurate, sensitive and selective detection of metabolic biomarkers in biofluids are of vital significance for health self-monitoring and chronic disease prevention. Here, for the first time, a smart dual-responsive nanozyme sensor (DNS) was developed for simultaneous analysis of glucose and caffeine utilizing stimuli-responsive yolk-shell gold nanoparticles (GNPs)-embedded MIL-53 (Al) (GNPs@MIL-53) structures. After the introduction of glucose, GNPs@MIL-53 displays excellent glucose oxidase (GOx)-like activity to induce the conversion of glucose to gluconic acid and H2O2. H2O2 can oxidize 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) with the generation a bright-blue color, enabling in-field visualization and surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) detection of glucose. Upon the addition of caffeine, 2-aminoterephthalic acid modified MIL-53 can react with the caffeine to form intermolecular hydrogen-bonded complexes, leading to strong cyan fluorescence and significant Raman enhancements. The DNS with multi-channel signal outputs can simultaneously determine glucose and caffeine at concentrations of as low as 3 × 10-8 M and 1.2 × 10-11 M, respectively. Importantly, the DNS-based analytical system not only enables visual discrimination and accurate assay of glucose and caffeine in biofluids, but also exhibits negligible cross-interference between glucose and caffeine determination. The combined characteristics of high selectivity, enhanced accuracy and superior quantitative performance make our platform suitable for the point-of-care monitoring of chronic-disease-related metabolic biomarkers.

Abstract
A rapid and convenient fluorescence glyphosate (GLYP) biosensor was developed based on DNA-templated copper nanoparticles (DNA-CuNPs). In the absence of GLYP, the DNA-CuNPs were formed through the reduction of Cu2+ by vitamin C (Vc). The DNA-CuNPs emitted intense fluorescence at 615 nm when being excited at 340 nm. In the presence of GLYP, GLYP can strongly chelate with Cu2+ by the phosphate and carboxyl groups to decrease the amount of free Cu2+. Due to the lack of free Cu2+, DNA-CuNPs cannot be formed, which caused the fluorescence to decrease. The whole detection process of this proposed GLYP biosensor can be completed within 14 min. Titration experiments showed that this biosensor had a linear relationship for GLYP in the range 1 to 18 µM with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.47 µM. This biosensor showed obvious selectivity among other pesticides, even between GLYP and organophosphorus pesticides. This biosensor performed well for GLYP detection in real samples with recoveries of 88.0-104.0%.

[PMID: 36132655 PMCID: PMC9417754 DOI: 10.1039/d1na00464f] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2021] [Accepted: 10/19/2021] [Indexed: 05/07/2023]
Abstract
The reliability and reproducibility of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technology is still a great challenge in bio-related analysis. Prussian blue (PB)-based SERS tags have attracted increasing interest for improving these deficiencies due to its unique Raman band (near 2156 cm-1) in the Raman-silent region, providing zero-background bio-Raman labels without interference from endogenous biomolecules. Moreover, the stable PB shell consisting of multiple layers of CN- reporters ensure a stable and strong Raman signal output, avoiding the desorption of the Raman reporter from the plasmonic region by the competitive adsorption of the analyte. More importantly, they possess outstanding multiplexing potential in biological analysis owing to the adjustable Raman shift with unique narrow spectral widths. Despite more attention having been attracted to the structure and preparation of PB-based SERS tags for their better biological applications over the past five years, there is still a great challenge for SERS suitable for applications in the actual environment. The biological applications of PB-based SERS tags are comprehensively recounted in this minireview, mainly focusing on quantification analysis, multiple-spectral analysis and cell-imaging joint phototherapy. The prospects of PB-based SERS tags in clinical diagnosis and treatment are also discussed. This review aims to draw attention to the importance of SERS tags and provide a reference for the design and application of PB-based SERS tags in future bio-applications.
