[PMID: 36696850 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115085] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2022] [Revised: 12/31/2022] [Accepted: 01/16/2023] [Indexed: 01/18/2023]
Abstract
Accurate and efficient detection of DNA is crucial for disease diagnosis and health monitoring. The traditional methods for DNA analysis involve multiple steps, including sample preparation, lysis, extraction, amplification, and detection. In this study, we present a one-step elution-free DNA analysis method based on the combination of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9)-mediated light-up aptamer transcription (CLAT) assay and a DNA-capturing poly(2-dimethylaminomethyl styrene) (pDMAMS)-coated tube. The sample solution and lysis buffer are added to the pDMAMS-coated tube, and the DNA is efficiently captured on the surface via electrostatic interaction and directly detected by CLAT assay. The ability of the CRISPR/Cas9 system to specifically recognize DNA enables direct detection of DNA captured on the pDMAMS-coated tube. The combination of CLAT assay and pDMAMS-coated tube simplifies DNA detection in a single tube without the need for complicated extraction steps, improving sensitivity. Our platform demonstrated attomolar sensitivity in the detection of target DNA in cell lysate (0.92 aM), urine (7.7 aM), and plasma (94.6 aM) samples within 1 h. The practical applicability of this method was further demonstrated in experiments with tumor-bearing mice. We believe that this approach brings us closer to an all-in-one DNA purification and detection tube system and has potential applications in tissue and liquid biopsies, as well as various other DNA sensing applications.

Abstract
The outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) has heightened awareness of the importance of quick and easy testing. The convenience, speed, and timely results from point-of-care testing (POCT) in all vitro diagnostic devices has drawn the strong interest of researchers. However, there are still many challenges in the development of POCT devices, such as the pretreatment of samples, detection sensitivity, specificity, and so on. It is anticipated that the unique properties of nanomaterials, e.g., their magnetic, optical, thermal, and electrically conductive features, will address the deficiencies that currently exist in POCT devices. In this review, we mainly analyze the work processes of POCT devices, especially in nucleic acid detection, and summarize how novel nanomaterials used in various aspects of POCT products can improve performance, with the ultimate aims of offering new ideas for the application of nanomaterials and the overall development of POCT devices.

Abstract
There is an urgent need to develop fast and sensitive detection methods for foodborne pathogens. But the conventional culture method that typically requires 2-3 days is not ideal for the rapid analysis. Food samples demonstrate a great challenge for direct detection due to the complex matrix. Hence, we present a new method based on the phage long-tail-fiber proteins (LTF4-a) immobilized magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) for specific separation and concentration of Salmonella. The LTF4-a-MNP was prepared via the coupling of recombinant LTF4-a with MNPs and used to isolate and enrich Salmonella cells from contaminated food samples. The captured material was further integrated with the direct PCR program for accurate detection of Salmonella. Our study successfully established a new method for detecting contaminated food samples of Salmonella, the overall approach took no more than 3 h, which allowed a detection limit of 7 CFU/mL, demonstrating a promising alternative to the immunomagnetic separation method by replacing antibodies or aptamers, that is compatible with downstream analysis.
