Abstract
High-quality DNA is an important guarantee to start downstream experiments in many biological and medical research areas. Magnetic particle-based DNA extraction methods from blood mainly depend on electrostatic adsorption in a low-pH environment. However, the strong acidic environment can influence the DNA stability. Herein, a polydopamine-functionalized magnetic particle (PDA@Fe3O4)-based protocol was developed for DNA extraction from whole blood samples. In the protocol, Mg2+ and Ca2+ were utilized to bridge the adsorption of DNA by PDA@Fe3O4 via the metal-mediated coordination. Isopropanol was found to efficiently promote DNA adsorption by triggering the change of the conformation of DNA from B-form to more compact A-form. In 50 % isopropanol solution, the DNA adsorption efficiency was nearly 100 % in the presence of 0.5 mM Ca2+ or 1.5 mM Mg2+. The role of metal ions and isopropanol in DNA adsorption was explored. The protocol averts the strong acidic environment and PCR inhibitors, such as high concentrations of salt or polyethylene glycol. It demonstrates superiority in DNA yield (59.13 ± 3.63 ng μL-1) over the commercial kit (27.33 ± 4.98 ng μL-1) and phenol-chloroform methods (37.90 ± 0.47 ng μL-1). In addition, to simplify the operastion, an automated nucleic acid extraction device was designed and fabricated to extract whole genomic DNA from blood. The feasibility of the device was verified by extracting DNA from cattle and pig blood samples. The extracted DNA was successfully applied to discriminate the beef authenticity by a duplex PCR system. The results demonstrate that the DNA extraction protocol and the automated device have great potential in blood samples.

Abstract
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have evolved tremendously during recent years, in part due to the rapid expansion of nanotechnology and to their active magnetic core with a high surface-to-volume ratio, while their surface functionalization opened the door to a plethora of drug, gene and bioactive molecule immobilization. Taming the high reactivity of the magnetic core was achieved by various functionalization techniques, producing MNPs tailored for the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular or neurological disease, tumors and cancer. Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) are established at the core of drug-delivery systems and could act as efficient agents for MFH (magnetic fluid hyperthermia). Depending on the functionalization molecule and intrinsic morphological features, MNPs now cover a broad scope which the current review aims to overview. Considering the exponential expansion of the field, the current review will be limited to roughly the past three years.

Abstract
Nucleic acid (NA) extraction is an essential step in molecular testing for a wide range of applications. Conventional extraction protocols usually suffer from time consuming removal of non-nucleic acid impurities. In this study, a new magnetic nanoparticle (MNP) is presented to simplify the NA extraction. A core-shell design, comprising of a ferromagnetic core coated with mesoporous silica, forms the basis of the functional nanoparticle. Chemical functionalization of the silica coating includes a multistep synthesis, in which an activated nanoparticle is coupled with a triethylene glycol spaced glycosyl imidazole. The molecular design aims for charge interactions between the imidazolium-based positive nanoparticle surface and nucleic acids, with specific hydrogen bonding between the surface bonded carbohydrate and nucleic acid targets to ensure nucleic acid selectivity and avoid protein contamination. Two different carbohydrates, differing in molecular size, were selected to compare the efficiency in terms of NA extraction. A triethylene glycol spacer provides sufficient flexibility to remove particle surface constraints for the interaction. The Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis shows a significantly larger surface area for the disaccharide-based particles NpFeSiImMalt (∼181 m2 g-1) compared to the monosaccharide analogue NpFeSiImGlc (∼116 m2 g-1) at small particles sizes (range ∼ 15 nm) and sufficient magnetization (29 emu g-1) for easy isolation by an external magnetic field. The particles enabled a high DNA particle loading ratio of 30-45 wt% (MNP/DNA ratio), reflecting an efficient extraction process. A high desorption rate (7 min) with more than 86% of unchanged DNA loading was recorded, indicating low damage to the target extract.

Abstract
The separation and purification of biomacromolecules such as nucleic acid is a perpetual topic in separation processes and bioengineering (fine chemicals, biopharmaceutical engineering, diagnostics, and biological characterization). In principle, the solid-phase extraction for nucleic acid exhibits efficient phase separation, low pollution risk, and small sample demand, compared to the conventional liquid-phase extraction. Herein, solid-phase extraction methods are systematically reviewed to outline research progress and explore additional solid-phase sorbents and devices for novel, flexible, and high-efficiency nucleic acid separation processes. The functional materials capture nucleic acid, magnetic and magnetic-free solid-phase extraction methods, separation device design and optimization, and high-throughput automatable applications based on high-performance solid-phase extraction are summarized. Finally, the current challenges and promising topics are discussed.

Abstract
Magnetic nanoparticles have been widely used for the separation of biomolecules for biological applications due to the mild and efficient separation process. In previous studies, core-shell magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) were designed for DNA extraction without much sequence specificity. In this work, to achieve highly selective DNA extraction, we designed a core-shell magnetic structure by coating polydopamine (PDA) on Fe3O4 NPs. Without divalent metal ions, PDA does not adsorb DNA at neutral pH. The Fe3O4@PDA NPs were then functionalized with spherical nucleic acids (SNA) to provide a high density of probe DNA. Fe3O4@PDA@SNA was also compared with when a linear SH-DNA was covalently attached to the NPs surface, showing a higher density of the probe SNA than SH-DNA can be loaded on the NPs in a remarkably shorter time. Nonspecific DNA extraction was thoroughly inhibited by both probes. DNA extraction by the Fe3O4@PDA@SNA was more effective as well as 5-fold faster than by the Fe3O4@PDA@SH-DNA, probably due to the favorable standing conformation of DNA strands in SNA. Moreover, extraction by Fe3O4@PDA@SNA showed high robustness in fetal bovine serum, and the same design can be used for selective detection of DNA. Finally, the method was also demonstrated on silica NPs and WS2 nanosheets for coating with PDA and SNA. Altogether, our findings revealed an interesting and general surface modification strategy using PDA@SNA conjugates for sequence-specific DNA extraction.
