Abstract
Two-dimensional black phosphorus (2D BP) has attracted significant research interest in the field of biomedical applications due to its unique characteristics, including high biocompatibility, impressive drug-loading efficiency, phototherapeutic ability, and minimal side effects. However, its puckered honeycomb lattice structure with lone-pair electrons of BP leads to higher sensitivity and chemical reactivity towards H2O and O2 molecules, resulting in the degradation of the structure with physical and chemical changes. In our study, we synthesize polyethylene glycol (PEG) and glutathione-stabilized doxorubicin drug-assembled Au nanoparticle (Au-GSH-DOX)-functionalized BP nanosheets (BP-PEG@Au-GSH-DOX) with improved degradation stability, biocompatibility, and tumor-targeting ability. Transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy indicate the nanoscale degradation behavior of synthesized nanoconjugates in three different environmental exposure conditions, and the results demonstrate the remarkable nanoscale stability of BP-PEG@Au-GSH-DOX against the degradation of BP, which provides significant interest in employing 2D BP-based nanotherapeutic agents for tumor-targeted cancer phototherapy.

Pan M, Han X, Chen S, Yang J, Wang Y, Li H, Wang S. Paper-based microfluidic device for selective detection of peanut allergen Ara h1 applying black phosphorus-Au nanocomposites for signal amplification. Talanta 2024; 267:125188. [PMID: 37716240 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.125188] [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: 05/09/2023] [Revised: 09/04/2023] [Accepted: 09/08/2023] [Indexed: 09/18/2023]
Abstract
This paper developed a portable microfluidic paper-based analysis device (μ-PAD) combined with the electrochemical technique for efficient and sensitive detection of peanut allergen Ara h1. The proposed μ-PAD works based on the variation of differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) response current induced by peanut allergen Ara h1. Black phosphorus (BP)-Au nanocomposites were introduced both to improve the electron transfer rate at the electrode interface for signal amplification, and to immobilize the specific Ara h1 aptamers through Au-S bonding to recognize the target in food matrices. This μ-PAD had good specificity and detection stability for Ara h1 allergen and could complete the entire analysis process within 20 min, achieving a wide linear response range (25-800 ng mL-1) and a low detection limit (LOD, 11.8 ng mL-1). In the Ara h1 allergen detection applied to real peanut products (cookies, milk, and bread), the constructed μ-PAD obtained acceptable recoveries (93.50%-101.86%) with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 0.36-2.97% (n = 3), with a good correlation with the ELISA results (R2 = 0.9956). Therefore, the portable μ-PAD based on BP-Au nanocomposites was demonstrated to provide an effective strategy for rapid analysis and screening of Ara h1 allergen in food, which has broad application prospects.

Abstract
Coconut cadang-cadang viroid (CCCVd) is an infectious single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) pathogen, which leads directly to the death of a large number of coconut palm trees and heavy economic loss to coconut farmers. Herein, a novel electrochemical impedance RNA genosensor is presented based on highly stable gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) decorated phosphorene (BP) nanohybrid with graphene (Gr) for highly sensitive, low-cost, and label-free detection of CCCVd. BP-AuNPs are environmentally friendly prepared by ultrasonic-assisted liquid-phase exfoliation of black phosphorus, accompanying direct reduction of chloroauric acid. Gr/BP-AuNPs are facilely prepared by the in situ growth of AuNPs onto the BP surface and its nanohybrid with Gr to improve environmental stability of BP. Gr/BP-AuNP-based RNA genosensor is fabricated by immobilizing the thiol-functionalized single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) oligonucleotide probe onto the surface of Gr/BP-AuNP-modified glassy carbon electrode via gold-thiol interactions, which served as an electrochemical genosensing platform for the label-free impedance detection of CCCVd by hybridization between the functionalized ssDNA probe and the complementary CCCVd ssRNA sequence in a wide linear range from 1.0 × 10-11 to 1.0 × 10-7 M with a low limit of detection of 2.8 × 10-12 M. This work supplies an experimental support and theoretical direction for the fabrication of RNA biosensors based on graphene-like materials and potential application for a specific diagnosis of plant RNA viral disease in Arecaceae planting industry.

[PMID: 37304786 PMCID: PMC10251399 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra01744c] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2023] [Accepted: 05/29/2023] [Indexed: 06/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Enhancement of the photocatalytic activity of black phosphorus (BP) is a highly challenging proposition. The fabrication of electrospun composite nanofibers (NFs) through the incorporation of modified BP nanosheets (BPNs) into conductive polymeric NFs has been recently introduced as a newer strategy not only to enhance the photocatalytic activity of BPNs but also to overcome their drawbacks including ambient instability, aggregation, and hard recycling, which exist in their nanoscale powdered forms. The proposed composite NFs were prepared through the incorporation of silver (Ag)-modified BPNs, gold (Au)-modified BPNs, and graphene oxide (GO)-modified BPNs into polyaniline/polyacrylonitrile (PANi/PAN) NFs by an electrospinning process. The successful preparation of the modified BPNs and electrospun NFs was confirmed by the characterization techniques of Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and Raman spectroscopy. The pure PANi/PAN NFs exhibited high thermal stability with a main weight loss of ∼23% for the temperature range of 390-500 °C, and the thermal stability of NFs was enhanced after their incorporation with the modified BPNs. The BPNs@GO-incorporated PANi/PAN NFs indicated improved mechanical properties compared to the pure PANi/PAN NFs with tensile strength (TS) of 1.83 MPa and elongation at break (EAB) of 24.91%. The wettability of the composite NFs was measured in the range of 35-36°, which exhibited their good hydrophilicity. The photodegradation performance was found in the sequence of BPNs@GO > BPNs@Au > BPNs@Ag > bulk BP ∼BPNs > red phosphorus (RP) for methyl orange (MO) and in the sequence of BPNs@GO > BPNs@Ag > BPNs@Au > bulk BP > BPNs > RP for methylene blue (MB), accordingly. The composite NFs degraded the MO and MB dyes more efficiently relative to the modified BPNs and pure PANi/PAN NFs.

A multifunctional black phosphorus nanosheet-based immunomagnetic bio-interface for heterogeneous circulating tumor cell capture and simultaneous self-identification in gastric cancer patients.

Abstract
A single epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) for circulating tumor cell (CTCs) isolation has been proved to be low in efficiency as it fails to recognize EpCAM-negative CTCs. Meanwhile, the current immunocytochemical (ICC) identification strategy for the captured cells is tedious and time-consuming. To address these issues, we designed a dual-labeled fluorescent immunomagnetic nanoprobe (BP-Fe3O4-AuNR/Apt), by loading magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles and gold nanorods (AuNRs) onto black phosphorus (BP) nanosheets and then linking them with Cy3-labeled EpCAM and Texas red-labeled tyrosine protein kinase 7 (PTK7) aptamers, which created a high-performance bio-interface for efficient, heterogeneous CTC capture and rapid self-identification with high accuracy. As few as 5 CTCs could be captured from 1.0 mL PBS, mixed cell solution and lysed blood. What's more, the presence of BP and AuNRs on this capturing interface also allowed us to preliminarily investigate the potential photothermal therapeutic effect of the probe toward CTC elimination. The applicability of the probe was further demonstrated in gastric cancer patients. By detecting the number of CTCs in the blood of gastric cancer patients, the correlations between the CTC number and the disease stage, as well as distant metastasis were systematically explored.
