Abstract
BACKGROUND Highly reactive oxygen species (ROS) could lead to serious damage in living cells and are associated with many diseases like cancers. Metal cluster with strong fluorescence has great potential in biosensing and many thiolate ligands-protected clusters have been applied in ROS sensing. RESULTS In this work, we synthesized levonorgestrel protected Au10 cluster with specific sensing ability for highly ROS via crystal transformation from Au8 cluster, demonstrating the significance of inner core structure on detecting performance. The detection limit of Au10 cluster for ClO- could reach as low as 0.1 μM. This fluorescent probe not only achieving detection of exogenous ClO- in living cells and zebrafish, but also successful imaging of endogenous ClO- in HeLa and HepG2 cells. SIGNIFICANCE In comparison to previously reported cluster-based sensors for ROS, this work proposes a different reaction mechanism of metal nanoclusters for ROS detection (breakage of gold-alkynyl bond and oxidation of alkynyl group). This provides new directions for designing specific ROS probes and broadens the applications of metal clusters in disease diagnostics.

Biosens Bioelectron 2024; 248:115947. [PMID: 38181518 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115947] [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: 11/30/2023] [Revised: 12/18/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/07/2024]
Abstract
Owing to their advantages such as great specificity, sensitivity, rapidity, and possibility of noninvasive and real-time monitoring, electrochemical cell-based biosensors (ECBBs) have been a powerful tool for food analysis encompassing the areas of nutrition, flavor, and safety. Notably, the distinctive biological relevance of ECBBs enables them to mimic physiological environments and reflect cellular behaviors, leading to valuable insights into the biological function of target components in food. Compared with previous reviews, this review fills the current gap in the narrative of ECBB construction strategies. The review commences by providing an overview of the materials and configuration of ECBBs, including cell types, cell immobilization strategies, electrode modification materials, and electrochemical sensing types. Subsequently, a detailed discussion is presented on the fabrication strategies of ECBBs in food analysis applications, which are categorized based on distinct signal sources. Lastly, we summarize the merits, drawbacks, and application scope of these diverse strategies, and discuss the current challenges and future perspectives of ECBBs. Consequently, this review provides guidance for the design of ECBBs with specific functions and promotes the application of ECBBs in food analysis.
