THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 925:171763. [PMID: 38494030 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.171763] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2023] [Revised: 02/29/2024] [Accepted: 03/14/2024] [Indexed: 03/19/2024]
Abstract
Microbial biofilms are behind microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC). Sessile cells in biofilms are many times more concentrated volumetrically than planktonic cells in the bulk fluids, thus providing locally high concentrations of chemicals. More importantly, "electroactive" sessile cells in biofilms are capable of utilizing extracellularly supplied electrons (e.g., from elemental Fe) for intracellular reduction of an oxidant such as sulfate in energy metabolism. MIC directly caused by anaerobic biofilms is classified into two main types based on their mechanisms: extracellular electron transfer MIC (EET-MIC) and metabolite MIC (M-MIC). Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) are notorious for their corrosivity. They can cause EET-MIC in carbon steel, but they can also secrete biogenic H2S to corrode other metals such as Cu directly via M-MIC. This study investigated the use of conductive magnetic nanowires as electron mediators to accelerate and thus identify EET-MIC of C1020 by Desulfovibrio vulgaris. The presence of 40 ppm (w/w) nanowires in ATCC 1249 culture medium at 37 °C resulted in 45 % higher weight loss and 57 % deeper corrosion pits after 7-day incubation. Electrochemical tests using linear polarization resistance and potentiodynamic polarization supported the weight loss data trend. These findings suggest that conductive magnetic nanowires can be employed to identify EET-MIC. The use of insoluble 2 μm long nanowires proved that the extracellular section of the electron transfer process is a bottleneck in SRB MIC of carbon steel.

Abstract
Infectious diseases, caused by pathogenic microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, or fungi, are crucial for efficient disease management, reducing morbidity and mortality rates and controlling disease spread. Traditional laboratory-based diagnostic methods face challenges such as high costs, time consumption, and a lack of trained personnel in resource-poor settings. Diagnostic biosensors have gained momentum as a potential solution, offering advantages such as low cost, high sensitivity, ease of use, and portability. Nanobiosensors are a promising tool for detecting and diagnosing infectious diseases such as coronavirus disease, human immunodeficiency virus, and hepatitis. These sensors use nanostructured carbon nanotubes, graphene, and nanoparticles to detect specific biomarkers or pathogens. They operate through mechanisms like the lateral flow test platform, where a sample containing the biomarker or pathogen is applied to a test strip. If present, the sample binds to specific recognition probes on the strip, indicating a positive result. This binding event is visualized through a colored line. This review discusses the importance, benefits, and potential of nanobiosensors in detecting infectious diseases.

Abstract
To address the requirement of ultra-sensitive detection of trace mercury(II) (Hg2+) ions in the environment and food, we developed an electrochemical biosensor with super-sensitivity, extremely high selectivity, and reusability. This biosensor comprised two signal amplification components: a three-dimensional macroporous dealloyed (3DOMD) Au-Ag thin-film electrode and a multifunctional encoded Au@Pt nanocage (APNC). As a platform for immobilized capture DNA (cDNA), a 3DOMD Au-Ag thin film prepared by a dealloying method with an active surface area 4.8 times higher than that of 3D macroporous gold films generated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) with sulfuric acid was capable of increasing the sensing surface area while also strengthening the electron transport capacity of the sensing substrate due to its multilayered multi-porous framework. In the presence of Hg2+, probe DNA (pDNA) could be hybridized with the mismatched capture DNA (cDNA) through stable thymine-Hg2+-thymine (T-Hg2+-T) linkages, connecting thionine-APNC to the electrode surface and utilizing the large specific surface area to accomplish highly sensitive detection of Hg2+. With an extremely low Hg2+ detection limit of 2 pM and a detection range from 0.01 to 1000 nM, this technique opened up a new avenue for the ultrasensitive detection of a wider range of heavy metal ions or biomolecules.
