Wu X, Wei H, Tian J, Lu J. An aptasensor for chloramphenicol determination based on dual signal output of photoelectrochemistry and colorimetry. Talanta 2024; 277:126430. [PMID: 38878510 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126430] [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: 04/30/2024] [Revised: 06/05/2024] [Accepted: 06/13/2024] [Indexed: 07/19/2024]
Abstract
In the present work, we developed an aptasensor to determine chloramphenicol (CAP) based on the dual signal output of photoelectrochemistry (PEC) and colorimetry. The Fe3+-doped porous tungsten trioxide was prepared by sol-gel method and coated on the ITO conductive glass to form ITO/p-W(Fe)O3. After assembling the captured DNA (cDNA) and the aptamer of CAP (apt) successively, the constructed ITO/p-W(Fe)O3-cDNA/apt aptasensor exhibited excellent photocurrent response under visible light irradiation in the presence of glucose, which provided the feasibility for PEC measurement with high sensitivity. In the presence of CAP, the apt left the ITO/p-W(Fe)O3 surface and AuNPs linked on the probe DNA would be assembled on it, which led to the decrease of photocurrent. Thanks to the oxidase-mimic catalytic performance of AuNPs and the recycling catalytic hydrolysis by exonuclease I, the measurement signal of the aptasensor could be amplified significantly, and the photocurrent decrease of the aptasensor was linearly related to the concentration of CAP in the range of 1.0 pM-10.0 nM and low detection limit was 0.36 pM. Meanwhile, the H2O2 produced from catalytic oxidation of glucose could oxidize TMB to blue oxTMB under HRP catalysis, which absorbance at 652 nm was linearly related to the concentration of CAP in the range of 5.0 pM-10.0 nM and low detection limit was 1.72 pM. Therefore, an aptasensor that determine CAP in real samples was successfully constructed with good precision of the relative standard deviation less than 5.7 % for PEC method and 7.3 % for colorimetric method, which can meet the analysis needs in different scenarios.

Abstract
The escalating threat of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a grave concern to global public health, exacerbated by the alarming shortage of effective antibiotics in the pipeline. Biofilms, intricate populations of bacteria encased in self-produced matrices, pose a significant challenge to treatment, as they enhance resistance to antibiotics and contribute to the persistence of organisms. Amid these challenges, nanotechnology emerges as a promising domain in the fight against biofilms. Nanomaterials, with their unique properties at the nanoscale, offer innovative antibacterial modalities not present in traditional defensive mechanisms. This comprehensive review focuses on the potential of nanotechnology in combating biofilms, focusing on green-synthesized nanoparticles and their associated anti-biofilm potential. The review encompasses various aspects of nanoparticle-mediated biofilm inhibition, including mechanisms of action. The diverse mechanisms of action of green-synthesized nanoparticles offer valuable insights into their potential applications in addressing AMR and improving treatment outcomes, highlighting novel strategies in the ongoing battle against infectious diseases.

Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is often identified as the causative agent in nosocomial infections. Their adapted resistance makes them strong towards antimicrobial treatments. They protect and empower their survival behind strong biofilm architecture that works as their armor toward antimicrobial therapy. Additionally, P. aeruginosa generates virulence factors, contributing to chronic infection and recalcitrant phenotypic characteristics. The current study utilizes the benevolence of nanotechnology to develop an alternate technique to control the spreading of P. aeruginosa by limiting its biofilm and virulence development. This study used a natural compound, tetramethylpyrazine, to generate gold nanoparticles. Tetramethylpyrazine-gold nanoparticles (Tet-AuNPs) were presented in spherical shapes, with an average size of 168 ± 52.49 nm and a zeta potential of -12.22 ± 2.06 mV. The minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) of Tet-AuNPs that proved more than 90 % effective in inhibiting P. aeruginosa was 256 μg/mL. Additionally, it also shows antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus (MIC, 256 μg/mL), Streptococcus mutans (MIC, 128 μg/mL), Klebsiella pneumoniae (MIC, 128 μg/mL), Listeria monocytogenes (MIC, 256 μg/mL), and Escherichia coli (MIC, 256 μg/mL). The sub-MIC values of Tet-AuNPs significantly inhibited the early-stage biofilm formation of P. aeruginosa. Moreover, this concentration strongly affected hemolysis, protease activity, and different forms of motilities in P. aeruginosa. Additionally, Tet-AuNPs destroyed the well-established mature biofilm of P. aeruginosa. The expression of genes linked with the biofilm formation and virulence in P. aeruginosa treated with sub-MIC doses of Tet-AuNPs was shown to be significantly suppressed. Gene expression studies support biofilm- and virulence-suppressing effects of Tet-AuNPs at the phenotypic level.

Abstract
In the present work, we developed a photoelectrochemical aptasensor to determine omethoate (OMT) based on the dual signal amplification of CeO2@MnO2 photocatalysis for glucose oxidation and exonuclease I-assisted cyclic catalytic hydrolysis. CeO2@MnO2 heterojunction material prepared by hydrothermal method was linked with captured DNA (cDNA) and then assembled on the ITO conductive glass to form ITO/CeO2@MnO2-cDNA, which exhibited significant photocurrent response and good photocatalytic performance for glucose oxidation under visible light irradiation, providing the feasibility for sensitive determining OMT. After binding with the aptamer of OMT (apt), the formation of rigid double stranded cDNA/apt kept CeO2@MnO2 away from ITO surface, which ensured a low photocurrent background for the constructed ITO/CeO2@MnO2-cDNA/apt aptasensor. In the presence of target OMT, the restoration of the cDNA hairpin structure and the exonuclease I-assisted cyclic catalytic hydrolysis led to the generation and amplification of measurement photocurrent signals, and allowed the aptasensor to have an ideal quantitative range of 0.01-10.0 nM and low detection limit of 0.0027 nM. Moreover, the aptasensor has been applied for selective determination of OMT in real samples with good precision of the relative standard deviation less than 6.2 % and good accuracy of the recoveries from 93 % to 108 %. What's more, the aptasensor can be used for other target determination only by replacing the captured DNA and corresponding aptamer.

Abstract
The rapidly rising antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in pathogenic bacteria has become one of the most serious public health challenges, with a high death rate. Most pathogenic bacteria have been recognized as a source of AMR and a primary barrier to antimicrobial treatment failure due to the development of biofilms and the production of virulence factors. In this work, nanotechnology was employed as a substitute method to control the formation of biofilms and attenuate virulence features in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus. We synthesized biocompatible gold nanoparticles from marine-derived laminarin as potential biofilm and virulence treatments. Laminarin-gold nanoparticles (Lam-AuNPs) have been identified as spherical, 49.84 ± 7.32 nm in size and - 26.49 ± 1.29 mV zeta potential. The MIC value of Lam-AuNPs against several drug-resistant microbial pathogens varied from 2 to 1024 μg/mL in both standard and host-mimicking media. Sub-MIC values of Lam-AuNPs were reported to effectively reduce the production of P. aeruginosa and S. aureus biofilms in both standard and host-mimicking growth media. Furthermore, the sub-MIC of Lam-AuNPs strongly reduced hemolysis, pyocyanin, pyoverdine, protease, and several forms of flagellar and pili-mediated motility in P. aeruginosa. Lam-AuNPs also inhibited S. aureus hemolysis and the production of amyloid fibrils. The Lam-AuNPs strongly dispersed the preformed mature biofilm of these pathogens in a dose-dependent manner. The Lam-AuNPs would be considered an alternative antibiofilm and antivirulence agent to control P. aeruginosa and S. aureus infections. KEY POINTS: • Lam-AuNPs were biosynthesized to control biofilm and virulence. • Lam-AuNPs show effective biofilm inhibition in standard and host-mimicking media. • Lam-AuNPs suppress various virulence factors of P. aeruginosa and S. aureus.

Abstract
Doping is a powerful strategy for enhancing the performance of ceria (CeO2) nanomaterials in a range of catalytic, photocatalytic, biomedical, and energy applications. The present review summarizes recent developments in the doping of ceria nanomaterials with metal and non-metal dopants for selected applications. The most important metal dopants are grouped into s, p, d, and f block elements, and the relevant synthetic methods, novel properties, and key applications of metal doped ceria are collated and critically discussed. Non-metal dopants are similarly examined and compared with metal dopants using the same performance criteria. The review reveals that non-metal (N, S, P, F, and Cl) doped ceria has mainly been synthesized by calcination and hydrothermal methods, and it has found applications mostly in photocatalysis or as a cathode material for LiS batteries. In contrast, metal doped ceria nanomaterials have been prepared by a wider range of synthetic routes and evaluated for a larger number of applications, including as catalysts or photocatalysts, as antibacterial agents, and in devices such as fuel cells, gas sensors, and colorimetric detectors. Dual/co-doped ceria containing both metals and non-metals are also reviewed, and it is found that co-doping often leads to improved properties compared with single-element doping. The review concludes with a future outlook that identifies unaddressed issues in the synthesis and applications of doped ceria nanomaterials.

Abstract
The aim of this study is the green synthesis of cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2-NPs) using a natural capping agent and its application in water and wastewater treatment. This study presents the biosynthesis of CeO2-NPs by the exertion of a green method using zucchini (Cucurbita pepo) extract as a capping agent. Synthesized CeO2-NPs were distinguished through TGA/DTA, FT-IR, XRD, FESEM/TEM and EDX/PSA, and DRS procedures. According to the XRD pattern of NPs, the crystallinity structure was a face-centered cubic (fcc) with an Fm3m space group and the size was estimated at 30 nm. The spherical morphology of NPs was confirmed through FESEM/TEM images. In the following, the photocatalytic property of NPs was investigated by the decolorization of methylene blue (MB) dye within UV-A light. Also, the cytotoxicity of NPs on the CT26 cell line was evaluated through the MTT test, and no toxicity was observed in the results, which indicates their biocompatibility.

Abstract
As one of the most significant rare earth oxides, the redox ability of cerium oxide (CeO2) has become the primary factor that has attracted considerable interest over the past decades. In the present study, irregular pentagonal CeO2 (S-CeO2) and different amounts of (1, 4, 8, and 12% Co) cobalt-doped CeO2 nanoparticles (Co-CeO2 NPs) with particle sizes between 4 and 13 nm were synthesized via the microwave-assisted synthesis method. The structural, optical, and morphological studies of S-CeO2 and Co-CeO2 were carried out using various techniques. The shifts in the conduction band and valence band were found to cause the reduction of the band gap energies of S-CeO2 and Co-CeO2 NPs. Moreover, the quenching of photoluminescence intensity with more Co doping showed the enhanced separation of charge carriers. The photocatalytic activities of S-CeO2 and Co-CeO2 NPs for methylene blue dye degradation, 4-nitrophenol reduction, and their photoantibacterial properties under visible-light irradiation were investigated. Findings showed that, due to the lower band gap energy (2.28 eV), more than 40% of both photocatalytic activities were observed for 12% Co-CeO2 NPs. On the other hand, higher antibacterial impact in the presence of light shows that the Co doping has a considerable influence on the photoantibacterial response of Co-CeO2. Therefore, microwave-assisted synthesized CeO2 and Co-CeO2 NPs have shown potential in photocatalytic dye degradation, chemical reduction, and photoantibacterial activities.

In the present study, we hypothesized that novel nanocomposites of chitosan-coated cerium oxide (CS/CeO2 NCs) derived from aqueous extracts of tea polyphenols would be stabilized and reduced by using green chemistry. The UV-visible spectrum of the synthesized material revealed an SPR peak at 279 nm, and the morphological characteristics of nanoparticles (NPs) as a uniformly distributed spherical shape with a size range of 20 nm were confirmed by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectrum illustrated the amino groups of chitosan-coated with CeO2 NPs on the surface. While, the hydrodynamic size (376 nm) and surface charge (+ 25.0 mV) of particles were assessed by dynamic light scattering (DLS), and the existence of oxidation state elements Ce 3d, O 1 s, and C 1 s was identified by employing X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). A cubic fluorite polycrystalline structure with a crystallite size of (5.24 nm) NPs was determined using an X-ray Diffractometer (XRD). The developed CS/CeO2 NCs demonstrated excellent antibacterial and antifungal efficacy against foodborne pathogens such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Botrytis cinerea with zone of inhibition of 13.5 ± 0.2 and 11.7 ± 0.2 mm, respectively. The results elucidated the potential of biosynthesized CS/CeO2 NCs could be utilized as potent antimicrobial agents in the food and agriculture industries.

Abstract
Cerium oxide (CeO2) can exhibit good photocatalytic and photoantibacterial activities. However, its light-harvesting property is rather limited due to its large band gap. In order to boost these properties, doping with metal ions can improve light absorption and charge mobility. In this report, CeO2 and palladium−doped CeO2 (Pd−CeO2) NPs were synthesized via the microwave-assisted synthesis method. The structural, optical, and morphological studies of CeO2 and Pd−CeO2 NPs were carried out using various techniques. Mixed phases of CeO2/Ce2O3 were observed in pure CeO2 (S−CeO2) and Pd−CeO2. However, the Ce2O3 phase gradually disappeared upon doping with a higher percentage of Pd. Almost spherical particles were observed with average sizes between 6 and 13 nm. It was found that the incorporation of Pd reduced the particle size. Moreover, band gap energies of S−CeO2 and Pd−CeO2 NPs were reduced from 2.56 to 2.27 eV, and the PL intensities were also quenched with more Pd doping. The shifts in the conduction band and valence band were found to cause the reduction in the band gap energies of S−CeO2 and Pd−CeO2 NPs. In the case of photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue, photoelectrochemical, and photoantibacterial activities, Pd−CeO2 NPs showed enhanced activities under visible light irradiation. Therefore, Pd−CeO2 NPs have been shown to be a visible-light active material.

Abstract
Altered wound healing is a major challenge faced by both developed and developing nations. Biofilm formation has been identified as one of the causative factors for the progression of chronic wounds. The spread of biofilm is controlled by inhibiting the biofilm formation or disrupting the mature biofilm. Functional nanomaterials/enzymes with antimicrobial effects, such as metal oxides, rare earth metals, and carbon nanoparticles have been investigated to treat biofilm and overcome the drawbacks associated with the antibiotic therapy. Cerium oxide nanoparticles (CNPs) have drawn significant attention as a promising antimicrobial agent owing to their antibacterial, enzyme-mimetic, and crystalline properties but they suffer from poor colloidal stability and dispersity in an aqueous environment and size-dependent function. In this work, we have developed a functionalized silica ceria nanocomposite (FSC), as an antibiotic-free system, to treat biofilms. The FSC possesses a high surface area of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) combined with the intrinsic antibacterial activity of cerium oxide for biofilm inhibition. The nanocomposite was fabricated using silica and ceria precursors, and it exhibited a high surface area of 436 m2/g and an average particle size of around 450 nm. The physical and chemical properties of nanocomposite were characterized using FTIR, XRD, UV-Vis, BET, EDX, and XPS analysis. It exhibited a potent antioxidant activity (86%), positive haloperoxidase mimetic property, and broad-spectrum antibacterial activities. It showed 99.9% inhibition against S. aureus (Gram-positive) and 81% inhibition against E. coli (Gram-negative) within 12 and 24 h along with the significant inhibition of biofilm formation (80%) as well as the disruptive effect against the established biofilm (77%) of S. aureus. Cell viability assays indicated the proliferative nature of composite in normal basal conditions and increased cell viability (97%) in the presence of oxidative stress. Despite being a cationic nanomaterial, it showed a good hemocompatibility against human blood and caused complete wound closure in mouse fibroblast cell line within 24 h. The functionalized silica ceria nanocomposite developed has a strong potential in chronic wound healing applications.

Abstract
The ideal methods for the preparation of semiconductors should be reproducible and possess the ability to control the morphology of the particles with monodispersity yields. Apart from that, it is also crucial to synthesize a large quantity of desired materials with good control of size, shape, morphology, crystallinity, composition, and surface chemistry at a reasonably low production cost. Metal oxides and chalcogenides with various morphologies and crystal structures have been obtained using different anion metal precursors (and/or different sulfur sources for chalcogenides in particular) through typical synthesis methods. Generally, spherical particles are obtained as it is thermodynamically favorable. However, by changing the anion precursor salts, the morphology of a semiconductor is influenced. Therefore, precursors having different anions show some effects on the final forms of a semiconductor. This review compiled and discussed the effects of anions (NO3−, Cl−, SO42-, CH3COO−, CH(CH3)O−, etc.) and different sources of S2- on the morphology and crystal structure of selected metal oxides and chalcogenides respectively.

Abstract
Injudicious use of antibiotics has been the main driver of severe bacterial non-susceptibility to commonly available antibiotics (known as drug resistance or antimicrobial resistance), a global threat to human health and healthcare. There is an increase in the incidence and levels of resistance to antibacterial drugs not only in nosocomial settings but also in community ones. The drying pipeline of new and effective antibiotics has further worsened the situation and is leading to a potentially "post-antibiotic era." This requires novel and effective therapies and therapeutic agents for combating drug-resistant pathogenic microbes. Nanomaterials are emerging as potent antimicrobial agents with both bactericidal and potentiating effects reported against drug-resistant microbes. Among them, the photothermally active nanomaterials (PANs) are gaining attention for their broad-spectrum antibacterial potencies driven mainly by the photothermal effect, which is characterized by the conversion of absorbed photon energy into heat energy by the PANs. The current review capitalizes on the importance of using PANs as an effective approach for overcoming bacterial resistance to drugs. Various PANs leveraging broad-spectrum therapeutic antibacterial (both bactericidal and synergistic) potentials against drug-resistant pathogens have been discussed. The review also provides deeper mechanistic insights into the mechanisms of the action of PANs against a variety of drug-resistant pathogens with a critical evaluation of efflux pumps, cell membrane permeability, biofilm, and quorum sensing inhibition. We also discuss the use of PANs as drug carriers. This review also discusses possible cytotoxicities related to the therapeutic use of PANs and effective strategies to overcome this. Recent developments, success stories, challenges, and prospects are also presented.

Abstract
Synthesized cerium oxide nanoparticles (S-CeO2 NPs) and 1%, 5% and 10% zirconium doped CeO2 (Zr-doped CeO2) NPs were fabricated using aqueous leaf extract of Pometia pinnata. The synthesized NPs were characterized using standard techniques which confirmed successful synthesis of NPs with particle size ranging from 12 to 23 nm and band gap energy of 2.54-2.66 eV. Photoantioxidant activities showed enhanced activities under visible light irradiation in comparison to the dark condition in the dose-dependent study. Biofilm inhibition studies showed ~ 73% biofilm inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus at 512 µg/mL for S-CeO2, whereas 10% Zr-doped CeO2 NPs showed biofilm inhibition of 52.7%. The bactericidal tests showed killing properties at 1024 µg/mL of S-CeO2 NPs and at 512 µg/mL of 1% Zr-doped CeO2. Reduced bactericidal activities were observed for 5% and 10% Zr-doped CeO2. These studies showed that the fabricated NPs have both good photoantioxidant and antibacterial properties.

Abstract
Biofilm is the self-synthesized, mucus-like extracellular polymeric matrix that acts as a key virulence factor in various pathogenic microorganisms, thereby posing a serious threat to human health. It has been estimated that around 80% of hospital-acquired infections are associated with biofilms which are found to be present on both biotic and abiotic surfaces. Antibiotics, the current mainstream treatment strategy for biofilms are often found to be futile in the eradication of these complex structures, and to date, there is no effective therapeutic strategy established against biofilm infections. In this regard, nanotechnology can provide a potential platform for the alleviation of this problem owing to its unique size-dependent properties. Accordingly, various novel strategies are being developed for the synthesis of different types of nanoparticles. Bio-nanotechnology is a division of nanotechnology which is gaining significant attention due to its ability to synthesize nanoparticles of various compositions and sizes using biotic sources. It utilizes the rich biodiversity of various biological components which are biocompatible for the synthesis of nanoparticles. Additionally, the biogenic nanoparticles are eco-friendly, cost-effective, and relatively less toxic when compared to chemically or physically synthesized alternatives. Biogenic synthesis of nanoparticles is a bottom-top methodology in which the nanoparticles are formed due to the presence of biological components (plant extract and microbial enzymes) which act as stabilizing and reducing agents. These biosynthesized nanoparticles exhibit anti-biofilm activity via various mechanisms such as ROS production, inhibiting quorum sensing, inhibiting EPS production, etc. This review will provide an insight into the application of various biogenic sources for nanoparticle synthesis. Furthermore, we have highlighted the potential of phytosynthesized nanoparticles as a promising antibiofilm agent as well as elucidated their antibacterial and antibiofilm mechanism.

Abstract
Cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2 NPs) are a sought-after material in numerous fields due to their potential applications such as in catalysis, cancer therapy, photocatalytic degradation of pollutants, sensors, polishing agents. Green synthesis usually involves the production of CeO2 assisted by organic extracts obtained from plants, leaves, flowers, bacteria, algae, food, fruits, etc. The phytochemicals present in the organic extracts adhere to the NPs and act as reducing and/or oxidizing agents and capping agents to stabilize the NPs, modify the particle size, morphology and band gap energy of the as-synthesized materials, which would be advantageous for numerous applications. This review focuses on the green extract-mediated synthesis of CeO2 NPs and discusses the effects on CeO2 NPs of various synthesis methods that have been reported. Several photocatalytic, antimicrobial, antioxidant and cytotoxicity applications have been evaluated, compared and discussed. Future prospects are also suggested.
