Abstract
In this work, a sea urchin gold nanoparticles-zearalenone aptamer- tetramethylrhodamine sensor was constructed. Sea urchin gold nanoparticles, prepared using the seed-mediated growth method, were used as Raman substrates. Nucleic acid aptamers were mainly used as specific recognition molecules. Zearalenone detection in miscellaneous beans was accomplished using the principle of conformational change in aptamer. In addition, we evaluated the linear range, sensitivity, and selectivity of our sensor. We observed that at the displacement of 814 cm-1, for Zearalenone concentrations of 0.01-60 ng/mL, the Raman signal intensity linearly correlated with the zearalenone concentration, with a limit of detection of 0.01 ng/mL, and recoveries of 91.7% to 108.3%. The optimum detection time was 30 min. Thus, our sensor exhibited great potential in zearalenone detection in food products.

Abstract
An electrochemical aptasensor was used for the fast and sensitive detection of zearalenone (ZEN) based on the combination of Co3O4/MoS2/Au nanocomposites and the hybrid chain reaction (HCR). The glassy carbon electrode was coated with Co3O4/MoS2/Au nanomaterials to immobilize the ZEN-cDNA that had been bound with ZEN-Apt by the principle of base complementary pairing. In the absence of ZEN, the HCR could not be triggered because the ZEN-cDNA could not be exposed. After ZEN was added to the surface of the electrode, a complex structure was produced on the modified electrode by the combination of ZEN and ZEN-Apt. Therefore, the ZEN-cDNA can raise the HCR to produce the long-strand dsDNA structure. Due to the formation of dsDNA, the methylene blue (MB) could be inserted into the superstructure of branched DNA and the peak currents of the MB redox signal dramatically increased. So the concentration of ZEN could be detected by the change of signal intensity. Under optimized conditions, the developed electrochemical biosensing strategy showed an outstanding linear detection range of 1.0×10-10 mol/L to 1.0×10-6 mol/L, a low detection limit (LOD) of 8.5×10-11 mol/L with desirable selectivity and stability. Therefore, the fabricated platform possessed a great application potential in fields of food safety, medical detection, and drug analysis.

Abstract
Zearalenone (ZEN), a resorcinolactone toxin, which has been a potential threat to agricultural production and human health. In this study, a sample and rapid fluorescence sensor was established for the detection of ZEN, which is based on the fluorescence properties of N-doped carbon dots-aptamer (NCDs-apt) and the quenching ability of oxidized single-walled carbon nanohorns (oxSWCNHs). NCDs synthesized by one-step hydrothermal method were connected with ZEN-aptamer (ZEN-apt), and oxSWCNHs were added to quench the fluorescence of NCDs-apt. Therefore, an oxSWCNHs/NCDs-apt aptasensor based on fluorescence "on-off" for the determination of ZEN in food was formed. Under optimum conditions, the limit of detection (LOD) of this method was 18 ng/mL and the linear range was 20 ~ 100 ng/mL. The possible interfering substances were investigated, and the results showed excellent selectivity. The recoveries were in the range of 99.5%~114.3%, and the relative standard deviations (RSDs) were not more than 6.5%, which demonstrated that this aptasensor was successfully applied for the detection of ZEN in food samples with satisfactory result.

Abstract
Detrimental contamination of zearalenone (ZEN) in crops and foodstuffs has drawn intensive public attention since it poses an ongoing threat to global food security and human health. Highly sensitive and rapid response ZEN trace analysis suitable for complex matrices at different processing stages is an indispensable part of food production. Conventional detection methods for ZEN encounter many deficiencies and demerits such as sophisticated equipment and heavy labor intensity. Alternatively, the nanomaterial-based biosensors featured with high sensitivity, portability, and miniaturization are springing up and emerging as superb substitutes to monitor ZEN in recent years. Herein, we predominantly devoted to overview the progress in the fabrication strategies and applications of various nanomaterial-based biosensors, highlighting rationales on sensing mechanisms, response types, and practical analytical performance. Synchronously, the versatile nanomaterials integrating with diverse recognition elements for augmenting sensing capabilities are emphasized. Finally, critical challenges and perspectives to expedite ZEN detection are outlooked.

Abstract
Recent years have witnessed an exponential increase in the research on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)-based colorimetric sensors to revolutionize point-of-use sensing devices. Hence, this review is compiled focused on current progress in the design and performance parameters of AuNPs-based sensors. The review begins with the characteristics of AuNPs, followed by a brief explanation of synthesis and functionalization methods. Then, the mechanisms of AuNPs-based sensors are comprehensively explained in two broad categories based on the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) characteristics of AuNPs and their peroxidase-like catalytic properties (nanozyme). SPR-based colorimetric sensors further categorize into aggregation, anti-aggregation, etching, growth-mediated, and accumulation-based methods depending on their sensing mechanisms. On the other hand, peroxidase activity-based colorimetric sensors are divided into two methods based on the expression or inhibition of peroxidase-like activity. Next, the analytes in environmental and food samples are classified as inorganic, organic, and biological pollutants, and recent progress in detection of these analytes are reviewed in detail. Finally, conclusions are provided, and future directions are highlighted. Improving the sensitivity, reproducibility, multiplexing capabilities, and cost-effectiveness for colorimetric detection of various analytes in environment and food matrices will have significant impact on fast testing of hazardous substances, hence reducing the pollution load in environment as well as rendering food contamination to ensure food safety.

Abstract
Zearalenone (ZEN), one of the most frequently occurring mycotoxin contaminants in foods and feeds, poses considerable threat to human and animal health, owing to its acute and chronic toxicities. Thus, rapid and accurate detection of ZEN has attracted broad research interest. In this work, a novel and label-free chemiluminescence aptasensor based on a ZEN aptamer and a G-quadruplex DNAzyme was constructed. It was established on a competitive assay between ZEN and an auxiliary DNA for the aptamer, leading to activation of the G-quadruplex/hemin DNAzyme and subsequent signal amplification by chemiluminescence generation after substrate addition. To maximize the detection sensitivity, numerous key parameters including truncated aptamers were optimized with molecular docking analysis. Upon optimization, our aptasensor exhibited a perfect linear relationship (R2 = 0.9996) for ZEN detection in a concentration range of 1-100 ng/mL (3.14-314.10 nM) within 40 min, achieving a detection limit of 2.85 ng/mL (8.95 nM), which was a 6.7-fold improvement over that before optimization. Most importantly, the aptasensor obtained a satisfactory recovery rate of 92.84-137.27% and 84.90-124.24% for ZEN-spiked wheat and maize samples, respectively. Overall, our label-free chemiluminescence aptasensor displayed simplicity, sensitivity, specificity and practicality in real samples, indicating high application prospects in the food supply chain for rapid detection of ZEN.

Evanescent Wave Optical-Fiber Aptasensor for Rapid Detection of Zearalenone in Corn with Unprecedented Sensitivity. BIOSENSORS 2022; 12:bios12070438.

Abstract
Zearalenone (ZEN) is a common mycotoxin pollutant found in agricultural products. Aptamers are attractive recognition biomolecules for the development of mycotoxin biosensors. Even though numerous aptasensors have been reported for the detection of ZEN in recent years, many of them suffer from problems including low sensitivity, low specificity, tedious experimental steps, high-cost, and difficulty of automation. We report here the first evanescent wave optical-fiber aptasensor for the detection of ZEN with unprecedented sensitivity, high specificity, low cost, and easy of automation. In our aptasensor, a 40-nt ZEN-specific aptamer (8Z31) is covalently immobilized on the fiber. The 17-nt fluorophore Cy5.5-labeled complementary DNA strand and ZEN competitively bind with the aptamer immobilized on the fiber, enabling the signal-off fluorescent detection of ZEN. The coating of Tween 80 enhanced both the sensitivity and the reproducibility of the aptasensor. The sensor was able to detect ZEN spiked-in the corn flour extract with a semilog linear detection range of 10 pM-10 nM and a limit of detection (LOD, S/N = 3) of 18.4 ± 4.0 pM (equivalent to 29.3 ± 6.4 ng/kg). The LOD is more than 1000-fold lower than the maximum ZEN residue limits set by China (60 μg/kg) and EU (20 μg/kg). The sensor also has extremely high specificity and showed negligible cross-reactivity to other common mycotoxins. In addition, the sensor was able to be regenerated for 28 times, further decreasing its cost. Our sensor holds great potential for practical applications according to its multiple compelling features.

Abstract
An ultrasensitive fluorometric oligonucleotide immunoassay (UFOIA) based on a fluorometric oligonucleotide and magnetic separation was proposed for the simultaneous detection of two mycotoxins. Two kinds of magnetic nanoparticle (MNP) probes and their corresponding fluorometric oligonucleotide probes were prepared. After the immune reaction, Cy5-linked and 6-FAM-linked oligonucleotides were dissociated and applied to detect fluorescence signals simultaneously. Under optimal conditions, the detection ranges of the UFOIA were in the range of 0.654-1438.8 pg mL-1 for zearalenone (ZEN) and 0.215-3190.1 pg mL-1 for aflatoxin B1 (AFB1). The limits of detection (LODs) were 0.378 pg mL-1 for ZEN and 0.043 pg mL-1 for AFB1, which showed improved sensitivities of 529-fold and 112-fold compared to those from the ELISA. The positive results of the UFOIA for authentic agricultural products were highly correlated with those from LC-MS/MS. The specificity, accuracy, precision and reliability of the UFOIA are well demonstrated. The proposed UFOIA method achieved the simultaneous and ultrasensitive detection of mycotoxins at the pg mL-1 level, which was a considerable improvement. This study might provide an alternative approach for detecting multi-component contamination equipped with the notable highlights of ultrasensitivity, simultaneity, simplicity, high efficiency and a low background signal.

Abstract
Modern society has been facing serious health-related problems including food safety, diseases and illness. Hence, it is urgent to develop analysis methods for the detection and control of food contaminants, disease biomarkers and pathogens. As the traditional instrumental methods have several disadvantages, including being time consuming, and having high cost and laborious procedures, optical nanosensors have emerged as promising alternative or complementary approaches to those traditional ones. With the advantages of simple preparation, high surface-to-volume ratio, excellent biocompatibility, and especially, unique optical properties, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been demonstrated as excellent transducers for optical sensing systems. Herein, we provide an overview of the synthesis of AuNPs and their excellent optical properties that are ideal for the development of optical nanosensors based on local surface plasmon resonance (LSPR), colorimetry, fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) phenomena. We also review the sensing strategies and their mechanisms, as well as summarizing the recent advances in the monitoring of food contaminants, disease biomarkers and pathogens using developed AuNP-based optical nanosensors in the past seven years (2015-now). Furthermore, trends and challenges in the application of these nanosensors in the determination of those analytes are discussed to suggest possible directions for future developments.

Development of a label-free plasmonic gold nanoparticles aggregates sensor on the basis of charge neutralization for the detection of zearalenone. Food Chem 2022; 370:131365. [PMID: 34662795 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2021.131365] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2021] [Revised: 09/06/2021] [Accepted: 10/05/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Mycotoxin contamination of corn has been considered a serious problem because it can accumulate in different organs or tissues via ingestion or skin contact and cause several health problems in humans. We have constructed a label-free, colorimetric, and fluorescence dual-channel sensing platform for the detection of zearalenone. Here, we demonstrate that plasmonic gold nanoparticles aggregates could be rapidly formed on the basis of charge neutralization by positively charged SYBR Green I. The sensing platform allowed quantitative detection as low as 0.89 μg kg-1 and visual detection as low as 2.5 μg kg-1. The charge neutralization strategy eliminates a major source of instability in conventional gold nanoparticles colorimetric measurements and paves the way for accurate, label-free bioanalysis.

[PMID: 34201367 PMCID: PMC8293044 DOI: 10.3390/gels7020067] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2021] [Revised: 06/03/2021] [Accepted: 06/04/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
In this work, two typical fluorescent sensors were generated by exploiting molecularly imprinted polymeric hydrogels (MIPGs) for zearalenone (ZON) and glucuronic acid (GA) detection, via the analyte's self-fluorescence property and receptor's fluorescence effect, respectively. Though significant advances have been achieved on MIPG-fluorescent sensors endowed with superior stability over natural receptor-sensors, there is an increasing demand for developing sensing devices with cost-effective, easy-to-use, portable advantages in terms of commercialization. Zooming in on the commercial potential of MIPG-fluorescent sensors, the MIPG_ZON is synthesized using zearalanone (an analogue of ZON) as template, which exhibits good detection performance even in corn samples with a limit of detection of 1.6 μM. In parallel, fluorescein-incorporated MIPG_GA is obtained and directly used for cancer cell imaging, with significant specificity and selectivity. Last but not least, our consolidated application results unfold new opportunities for MIPG-fluorescent sensors for environmentally and medicinally important analytes detection.
