Abstract
Metal nanoclusters (MNCs) have outstanding fluorescence property and biocompatibility, which show widespread applications in biological analysis. Particularly, evaluation of enzyme activity with the fluorescent MNCs has been developed rapidly within the past several years. In this review, we first introduced the fluorescent mechanism of mono- and bi-metallic nanoclusters, respectively, whose interesting luminescence properties are mainly resulted from electron transfer between the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) and highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy levels. Meanwhile, the charge migration within the structure occurs through ligand-metal charge transfer (LMCT) or ligand-metal-metal charge transfer (LMMCT). On such foundation, diverse enzyme activities were rigorously evaluated, including three transferases and nine hydrolases, in turn harvesting rapid research progresses within past 5 years. Finally, we summarized the design strategies for evaluating enzyme activity with the MNCs, presented the major issues and challenges remained in the relevant research, coupled by showing some improvement measures. This review will attract researchers dedicated to the studies of the MNCs and provide some constructive insights for their further applications in enzyme analysis.

Abstract
Cysteine, a sulfur-containing amino acid, is a vital candidate for physiology. Coinage metal particles (both clusters and nanoparticles) are highly interesting for their spectacular plasmonic properties. In this case, copper is the most important candidate for its cost-effectiveness and abundance. However, rapid oxidation destroys the stability of copper particles, warranting the necessity of suitable capping agents and experimental conditions. Cysteine can efficiently carry out such a role. On the contrary, cysteine sensing is a vital step for biomedical science. This review article is based on a comparative account of copper particles with cysteine passivation and copper particles for cysteine sensing. For the deep understanding of readers, we discuss nanoparticles and nanoclusters, properties of cysteine, and importance of capping agents, along with various synthetic protocols and applications (sensing and bioimaging) of cysteine-capped copper particles (cysteine-capped copper nanoparticles and cysteine-capped copper nanoclusters). We also include copper nanoparticles and copper nanoclusters for cysteine sensing. As copper is a plasmonic material, fluorometric and colorimetric methods are mostly used for sensing. Real sample analysis for both copper particles with cysteine and copper particles for cysteine sensing are also incorporated in this review to demonstrate their practical applications. Both cysteine-capped copper particles and copper particles for cysteine sensing are the main essence of this review. The aspect of the synergism of copper and cysteine (unlike other amino acids) is quite promising for future researchers.

Abstract
Kidney injury in hematologic malignancies can manifest in many ways. We present a case report of a 44-year-old female with de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and acute kidney injury. Following the etiological investigation, lysozyme-induced nephropathy was believed to be the most probable cause of renal injury. Intensive cytoreduction and chemotherapy were started and the patient's cytopenias and kidney injury have improved. This case highlights the importance of recognizing lysozyme-induced nephropathy as a form of kidney injury in AML. Despite being frequently underrecognized, a precocious diagnosis may impact the patient's prognosis.

Multi-Factors Cooperatively Actuated Photonic Hydrogel Aptasensors for Facile, Label-Free and Colorimetric Detection of Lysozyme. BIOSENSORS 2022; 12:bios12080662.

Abstract
Responsive two-dimensional photonic crystal (2DPC) hydrogels have been widely used as smart sensing materials for constructing various optical sensors to accurately detect different target analytes. Herein, we report photonic hydrogel aptasensors based on aptamer-functionalized 2DPC poly(acrylamide-acrylic acid-N-tert-butyl acrylamide) hydrogels for facile, label-free and colorimetric detection of lysozyme in human serum. The constructed photonic hydrogel aptasensors undergo shrinkage upon exposure to lysozyme solution through multi-factors cooperative actuation. Here, the specific binding between the aptamer and lysozyme, and the simultaneous interactions between carboxyl anions and N-tert-butyl groups with lysozyme, increase the cross-linking density of the hydrogel, leading to its shrinkage. The aptasensors’ shrinkage decreases the particle spacing of the 2DPC embedded in the hydrogel network. It can be simply monitored by measuring the Debye diffraction ring of the photonic hydrogel aptasensors using a laser pointer and a ruler without needing sophisticated apparatus. The significant shrinkage of the aptasensors can be observed by the naked eye via the hydrogel size and color change. The aptasensors show good sensitivity with a limit of detection of 1.8 nM, high selectivity and anti-interference for the detection of lysozyme. The photonic hydrogel aptasensors have been successfully used to accurately determine the concentration of lysozyme in human serum. Therefore, novel photonic hydrogel aptasensors can be constructed by designing functional monomers and aptamers that can specifically bind target analytes.

Abstract
Renal dysfunction in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) can be multifactorial. We present the case of a 72-year-old male with relapsed myelomonocytic AML who presented with transient acute kidney injury (AKI) and severe persistent electrolyte derangements. In the setting of nephrotic-range proteinuria and electrolyte wasting without significant albuminuria or glucosuria, a diagnosis of lysozymuria was made. Lysozymuria is a rare paraneoplastic complication of AML and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia characterized by lysozyme. This represents the first case of lysozymuria presenting primarily with refractory electrolyte derangements rather than severe AKI. Lysozymuria portends a poor clinical prognosis even with aggressive management.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Therapy-related acute monocytic leukemias in patients with plasma cell dyscrasias are infrequent.
Case presentation
We here present a case of a 60 year old female who developed an acute monocytic leukemia two years after the diagnosis of multiple myeloma. She was treated with an alkylating agent and bortezomib before undergoing a hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. She suffered of multiple severe infections until her immune system was adequately reconstituted. A year afterwards, she presented signs of deterioration unrelated to the MM, with pancytopenia. The bone marrow aspirate failed to show a prominent blast population. The diagnosis of AML was confirmed after a bone marrow biopsy.
Discussion
The development of acute leukaemia after treatment for multiple myeloma is a well characterized phenomenon. Most frequently, patients develop a myelomonocytic leukemia. Similarly, synchronous acute myeloid leukemias are myelomonocytic or myeloblastic. Rarely synchronous AMLs are monocytic. The development of such suggests a dysfunctional bone marrow microenvironment.

Lysozyme-AuNPs Interactions: Determination of Binding Free Energy. NANOMATERIALS 2021; 11:nano11082139.

Abstract
Investigation and optimization of lysozyme (Lys) adsorption onto gold nanoparticles, AuNPs, were carried out. The purpose of this study is to determine the magnitude of the AuNPs–lysozyme interaction in aqueous media by simple spectrophotometric means, and to obtain the free energy of binding of the system for the first time. In order to explore the possibilities of gold nanoparticles for sensing lysozyme in aqueous media, the stability of the samples and the influence of the gold and nanoparticle concentrations in the detection limit were studied. ζ potential measurements and the shift of the surface plasmon band showed a state of saturation with an average number of 55 Lys per gold nanoparticle. Lysozyme–AuNPs interactions induce aggregation of citrate-stabilized AuNPs at low concentrations by neutering the negative charges of citrate anions; from those aggregation data, the magnitude of the interactions has been measured by using Benesi–Hildebrand plots. However, at higher protein concentrations aggregation has been found to decrease. Although the nanocluster morphology remains unchanged in the presence of Lys, slight conformational changes of the protein occur. The influence of the size of the nanoclusters was also investigated for 5, 10, and 20 nm AuNPs, and 10 nm AuNPs was found the most appropriate.

Abstract
A new strategy for the design and construction of molecularly imprinted magnetic fluorescent nanocomposite-based-sensor is proposed. This multifunctional nanocomposite exhibits the necessary optics, magnetism and biocompatibility for use in the selective fluorescence detection of lysozyme. The magnetic fluorescent nanocomposites are prepared by combining carboxyl- functionalized Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles with l-cysteine-modified zinc sulfide quantum dots (MNP/QDs). Surface molecular imprinting technology was employed to coat the lysozyme molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) layer on the MNP/QDs to form a core-shell structure. The molecularly imprinted MNP/QDs (MNP/QD@MIPs) can rapidly separate the target protein and then use fluorescence sensing to detect the protein; this reduces the background interference, and the selectivity and sensitivity of the detection are improved. The molecularly imprinted MNP/QDs sensor presented good linearity over a lysozyme concentration range from 0.2 to 2.0 μM and a detection limit of 4.53 × 10-3 μM for lysozyme. The imprinting factor of the MNP/QD@MIPs was 4.12, and the selectivity coefficient ranged from 3.19 to 3.85. Furthermore, the MNP/QD@MIPs sensor was applied to detect of lysozyme in human urine and egg white samples with recoveries of 95.40-103.33%. Experimental results showed that the prepared MNP/QD@MIPs has potential for selective magnetic separation and fluorescence sensing of target proteins in biological samples.

Abstract
Lysozyme (LYZ) sensors have attracted increased attention because rapid and sensitive detection of LYZ is highly desirable for various diseases associated with humans. In this research, we designed L-cysteine-protected ultra small photoluminescent (PL) copper nanoclusters (CuNCs) conjugated with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) for rapid detection of LYZ in human serum samples at room temperature. The proposed β-CD-CuNCs exhibited excellent water solubility, ultrafine size, good dispersion, bright photoluminescence, and good photostability. The β-CD-CuNCs exhibit an excitation and emission maximum at 370 nm and 492 nm, respectively, with an absolute quantum yield (QY) of 54.6%. β-CD-CuNCs showed a fluorescence lifetime of 12.7 ns. The addition of LYZ would result in PL quenching from β-CD-CuNCs. The lowest detectable LYZ concentration was 50 nM for the naked eye and the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were 0.36 nM and 1.21 nM, respectively, by emission measurement observed in the LYZ concentration range from 30 to 100 nM. It is important to note that the PL β-CD-CuNC strategy possessed great selectivity toward LYZ relative to other biomolecules. The proposed nanosensor was efficiently applied to determine the LYZ level in human serum sample average recoveries from 96.15 to 104.05% and relative standard deviation (RSD) values lower than 3.0%. Moreover, the proposed sensing system showed many advantages, including high speed, high sensitivity, high selectivity, low cost, and simple preparation.

Abstract
A porous zwitterionic monolithic column was prepared to rapidly and efficiently separate lysozyme from egg white. The monolith was synthesized in a stainless steel HPLC column (5 cm × 4.6 mm i.d.) by in-situ thermal initiated co-polymerization of N,N-dimethyl-N-methacryloxyethyl-N-(3-sulfopropyl) ammonium betaine (MSA) and ethylene dimethacrylate (EDMA). Due to the combination of quaternary ammonium and sulfonic groups on the monolithic matrix in one-pot process, the hydrophobic carbon chain and hydrophilic radical were obtained, which provided multiple driving forces for neutral, basic and acidic analytes, thus mix-mode chromatography mechanism contributed to the retention of different charged proteins. Properties such as composition, morphology and stability of the MSA-co-EDMA monolithic column were characterized by various analytical methods and the results showed that the monolith has large through-pores, good hydrophilicity and permeability. The effects of mobile phase pH and ionic strength on proteins were investigated, drawing the conclusion that the main adsorption and elution mechanism of lysozyme on MSA-co-EDMA monolith was electrostatic interaction, while those of other proteins included hydrophobic, hydrophilic and electrostatic interactions. Therefore, efficient separation of lysozyme and other proteins could be successfully achieved by switching the pH of mobile phase. Lysozyme can be adsorbed using 20 mmol/L phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) and eluted with 20 mmol/L phosphate buffer (pH 2.0). To prove the practicality of the monolithic column, it was also applied in the separation of lysozyme in egg white, which means the work has the potential for further development in proteome analysis of real biological samples.

Abstract
In this work, a novel method based on aptamers is proposed for electrochemical measurement of lysozyme. To this end, screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) was modified with a nanocomposite made from amino-reduced graphene oxide (Amino-rGO) synthesized from natural graphite powder, an ionic liquid (IL), and amino-mesosilica nanoparticles (Amino-MSNs). The composition of the nanocomposite (Amino-rGO/IL/Amino-MSNs) results in high thermal and chemical stability, conductivity, surface-to-volume ratio, cost efficiency, biocompatibility, and great bioelectrocatalysis characteristics. Presence of numerous amino groups, as well as remaining oxygen defects in rGO, provides a suitable site for immobilization of aptamers. Furthermore, use of this nanocomposite leads to considerable enhancement of the electrochemical signal and improved method sensitivity. Covalent coupling of aptamer's amino groups with that of the nanocomposite using glutaraldehyde (GLA) as a linker helps immobilize amino-linked lysozyme aptamers (Anti-Lys aptamers) on nanocomposite. The modified electrode was characterized using electrochemical methods such as cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The immobilized aptamer selectively adsorbs lysozyme (Lys) on the electrode interface, leading to increased Charge Transfer Resistance (RCT) in EIS and decrease in the DPV peak currents which are used as analytical signals. Two separate calibration curves were drawn using the data acquired from EIS and DPV. The prepared anti-Lys aptasensor has two very low LODs equal to 2.1 and 4.2 fmol L-1 with wide detection ranges of 10 fmol L-1 to 200 nmol L-1, and 20 fmol L-1 to 50 nmol L-1 for EIS and DPV calibration curves, respectively. The SPCE/Amino-rGO/IL/Amino-MSNs/APT also showed high reproducibility, specificity, sensitivity, and rapid response to Lys which has various applications in fields of bioengineering and biomedicine.

Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) functionalized with glutamic acid (GA) was used as a biochemical sensing probe in colorimetry for detection of lysozyme protein in milk samples. The method is based on the color change of AgNPs/GA from yellow to reddish-yellow differentiated with naked eyes for qualitative determination and red shift of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) absorption signal intensity of AgNPs/GA in visible region used for quantitative determination of lysozyme. The control experiments were performed to demonstrate the electrostatic force of interactions between AgNPs/GA and protein molecule. A wide linear range of 3-150 nM with limit of detection of 1.5 nM was acquired for quantitative determination of lysozyme using AgNPs/GA as a biochemical sensing probe. The advantages of using AgNPs/GA as a biochemical sensing probe are simple, label-free and economic for determination of lysozyme from milk samples.

Abstract
Gold nanoparticle (GNP) interaction with hen egg white lysozyme (Lyz) has been investigated by many groups in order to understand protein mediated aggregation of GNPs and the underlying mechanism of aggregation. In this article, we have studied the interaction of citrate-capped GNPs of 16, 28, 41, and 69 nm sizes with Lyz by the non-destructive label-free second harmonic light scattering (SHLS) technique at physiological pH in phosphate buffer. The surface sensitivity of the nonlinear optical SHLS technique is very high and we have looked at the GNP-Lyz interaction at nanomolar concentrations. We have followed the increase in the SHLS intensity of GNPs as a function of the added concentration of Lyz in small aliquots. The SH intensity profile exhibits saturation behaviour and was fitted with a modified Langmuir adsorption model which yielded the binding constant (Kb), the binding stoichiometry (nsat) at saturation and the free energy change (ΔG) in the adsorption process. The free energy change was further decomposed into changes in the enthalpy (ΔH) and entropy (ΔS) of adsorption by carrying out temperature dependent SHLS measurements in a specially designed cell. The thermodynamic quantities extracted from the measurements show that the binding is exothermic (ΔH < 0) as well as spontaneous (ΔS > 0). We find that the first step in the adsorption of Lyz on the GNP surface is nanoparticle protein corona (NP-PC) formation driven predominantly by electrostatic attraction. In the second step of adsorption, the adsorbed lysozymes on the surface form a bridge between two or more GNPs leading to the latter's aggregation, which is the main reason for the enhancement of the SH scattering signal. Although the interaction between the GNPs and Lyz is driven by strong electrostatic attraction, the thermodynamic quantities reported here indicate that the protein is physisorbed on the nanoparticle surface. We have also demonstrated that SHLS provides a new tool for full thermodynamic characterization of protein adsorption on metal nanoparticles at ultralow concentrations.

Abstract
Qualitative and quantitative determination of lysozyme concentrations in urine and serum with high selectivity and sensitivity is important for diagnosing the progression of several diseases. In this report, we devised an improved method for specifically detecting lysozyme by combining magnetic nanoparticles (for separation and enrichment), an aptamer (for selective binding of lysozyme) and strongly scattering silver nanoparticles (AgNPs, for detection by light scattering, but also providing another level of selectivity due to their electrostatic binding with lysozyme). In this system, 0.4-30 nM lysozyme could be simply detected owing to the decreased light scattering of AgNPs in solution after magnetic separation, with a detection limit of 100 pM. In addition, lysozyme was also able to be semi-quantified by using the dark-field light scattering images of AgNPs after enrichment by the MNP-apt-lysozyme complex. Moreover, this design shows great promise for the robust and reliable detection of lysozyme in real samples, with a recovery rate ranging from 98.6% to 101.3% in human serum samples. Therefore, this assay provided robust measurements with good specificity, sensitivity, and tolerance of changes in the sample matrix. We expect that this MNP-based aptasensor may find utility in the accurate diagnosis of lysozyme-related diseases.

Abstract
The negatively charged ruthenate(II) complex [Ru(bpy)(PPh3)(CN)3]- and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were used for detecting lysozyme (LYS). The luminescence of the ruthenate(II) complex is quenched by AuNPs, and this induces the aggregation of AuNPs and a color change from red to blue. After addition of lysozyme, the positively charged lysozyme and the negatively charged ruthenate(II) complex bind each other by electrostatic interaction firstly. This prevents AuNPs from aggregation and quenches the emission of the ruthenate(II) complex. Its luminescence and the degree of aggregation of the AuNPs can be used to quantify LYS. The fluorometric calibration plot is linear in the 0.01 to 0.20 μM LYS concentration range, and the calibration plot is linear between 0.02 and 0.20 μM of LYS. The color of the solution can be easily distinguished by bare eyes at 0.08 μM or higher concentration of LYS. The applicability of the method was verified by the correct analysis of LYS in chicken egg white.

Abstract
Quantum dots (QDs) have significant potentials in biomedical applications of bioimaging and biosensing. Spontaneous adsorption of proteins on QDs surface is a common phenomenon, which occurred to serum proteins in biological samples, and has been observed to enhance QDs fluorescence. In this study, fluorescence alteration of 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) capped CdSe quantum dots by four individual biomarker proteins was investigated. By monitoring the fluorescence emission of QDs, the biomarker protein adsorbed spontaneously on QDs surface was recognized and quantified. When alpha fetoprotein (AFP) or heat shock protein 90 alpha (HSP90α) were present, the QDs became brighter. The presence of cytochrome C (CytoC) or lysozyme (Lyz) made the QDs dimmer first, and then brighter. Within five minutes response time all four biomarker proteins were detected individually with the estimated detection limit in the range of 1-10 ng/mL and good linear dynamic ranges. The results suggested that the fluorescence of QDs was responsive to not only serum proteins but also biomarker proteins. The fluorescence response was able to correlate quantitatively with the amount of biomarker proteins in relatively low concentrations. These results provide more information to understand QDs and support their applications in biomedical fields.

Abstract
Lysozyme (LYS) is a bacteriolytic enzyme, available in secretions such as saliva, tears and human milk. LYS is an important defence molecule of the innate immune system, and its overexpression can be a consequence of diseases such as leukemia, kidney disease and sarcoidosis. This paper reports on a digital microfluidic-based approach that combines the gold nanoparticle-enhanced chemiluminescence with aptamer interaction to detect human lysozyme into droplets 20 nanoliters in volume. The described method allows identifying LYS with a 44.6 femtomolar limit of detection, using sample volume as low as 1μL and detection time in the range of 10min. We used luminol to generate the chemiluminescence and demonstrated that the compartmentalization of LYS in droplets also comprising gold nanoparticles provided enhanced luminescence. We functionalized the gold nanoparticles with a thiolated aptamer to achieve the required selectivity that allowed us to detect LYS in human serum.

Abstract
Among the various advantages of aptamers over antibodies, remarkable is their ability to tolerate a large number of chemical modifications within their backbone or at the termini without losing significant activity. Indeed, aptamers can be easily equipped with a wide variety of reporter groups or coupled to different carriers, nanoparticles, or other biomolecules, thus producing valuable molecular recognition tools effective for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. This review reports an updated overview on fluorescent DNA aptamers, designed to recognize significant cancer biomarkers both in soluble or membrane-bound form. In many examples, the aptamer secondary structure switches induced by target recognition are suitably translated in a detectable fluorescent signal using either fluorescently-labelled or label-free aptamers. The fluorescence emission changes, producing an enhancement (“signal-on”) or a quenching (“signal-off”) effect, directly reflect the extent of the binding, thereby allowing for quantitative determination of the target in bioanalytical assays. Furthermore, several aptamers conjugated to fluorescent probes proved to be effective for applications in tumour diagnosis and intraoperative surgery, producing tumour-type specific, non-invasive in vivo imaging tools for cancer pre- and post-treatment assessment.

Abstract
A growing body of evidence indicates that lysozyme plays a significant role as an indicator for many diseases and a drug for treatment of infections, ulcers and to study the spatial conformation, enzyme kinetics, and molecular immunology. Therefore, highly sensitive determination of lysozyme is necessary and vital in a wide variety of fields. In this work, we put forward a simple but effective strategy for colorimetric visualization of lysozyme based on iodide-responsive Cu@Au nanoparticles (Cu@Au NPs) as well as the iodide-catalyzed H2O2-TMB (3,3,5,5-tetramethylbenzidine) reaction system. Colorimetric detection is applied because of its simplicity, fast response for analysis, high detection limit, low costs and practicality. In our strategy, iodide is applied for the reason that it can induce an obvious color change of the Cu@Au nanoparticles solution from gray to red, along with the change of morphologies of the Cu@Au nanoparticles from irregular to spherical. Consequently, this phenomenon results in colorimetric signal variation of the iodide-catalytic H2O2-TMB system. What's more, by quite simple biomolecule modification on the Cu@Au nanoparticles surface, an all-purpose colorimetric platform is established for the accurate detection of lysozyme, which could lead to the change of Cu@Au NP concentration through molecular recognition. The results show that modified Cu-Au NPs successfully achieved a simple, selective, visualized, and ultrasensitive detection of lysozyme with a linear range from 10-7 to 10-3M and a detection limit of 60nM.

Abstract
A bifunctional and simple aptasensor was designed to one-spot simultaneously detect two analytes, lysozyme and ATP. The aptasensor was obtained by the electronic interaction between methyl violet (MV) and dsDNA. The dsDNA was obtained by hybridization of ATP aptamer and lysozyme aptamer. And we used the resonance light scattering (RLS) technique to detect the concentration of lysozyme and ATP. During the procedure of detection, the aptasensor works like a bidirectional switch, the corresponding side of the dsDNA will open when the target (lysozyme or ATP) "click" the aptamer, which results in corresponding RLS signal change. By the combination of the RLS technique, it is found that the changed RLS intensity was proportional to the concentration of lysozyme and ATP. The mixtures of ATP and lysozyme also met two binary function relations. The results indicated that the aptasensor could achieve simultaneous detection of ATP and lysozyme, the detection limits of ATP and lysozyme could reach 10(-11) M and 10(-12) M, respectively. The aptasensor shows potential application for small molecule and protein detection by RLS, it could extend the application of RLS technique.

Abstract
Gold nanorods have been nominated as propitious candidates for nanobiodiagnostic applications. Herein, a technique has been introduced for rapid visual detection of lysozyme, as its high level of excretion in biological fluids is a characteristic sign of leukemia and kidney disorders. Gold nanorods were biofunctionalized with lysozyme aptamer and characterized with UV-Visible and FTIR spectroscopy, zeta potential analyzer and transmission electron microscopy. Exposure of the nanoprobe to nano molar levels of lysozyme (20 nmol l(-1)) lead to dictated aggregation of the nanostructures at ambient temperature; which was significantly improved by heat induced morphological perturbations and rapid detection by the naked eye (down to pico molar level). Qualitative analysis of Acute myeloid leukemia, Acute lymphocytic leukemia and Lymphoma blood serums showed sensitivity and specificity of the fabricated aptasensor under both temperature conditions. This report encourages utilization of heat-induced aggregation of gold nanorods as a promising nanodiagnostic technique for the emerging nanotechnologies.

Abstract
Leukemia and lymphoma are hematologic malignancies that can affect any age group. Disease can be aggressive or indolent, often with multiorgan system involvement. Kidney involvement in leukemia and lymphoma can be quite extensive. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is quite prevalent in these patients, with prerenal and acute tubular necrosis being the most common etiologies. However other prerenal, intrinsic, and obstructive etiologies are possible. AKI can be a direct effect of the malignancy, a complication of the malignancy, or the consequence or side effect of chemotherapy. Nephrotic syndrome and glomerulonephritis, often presenting without overt kidney failure, have also been seen in all forms of leukemia and lymphoma. Lastly, the direct effects of the malignancy and complications from the tumor often result in numerous electrolyte disturbances and acid-base disorders, with life-threatening consequences if left untreated.

Abstract
A strategy for attomolar-level detection of small molecule-size proteins is reported based on Rayleigh light scattering spectroscopy of individual nanoplasmonic aptasensors by exploiting the outstanding characteristics of gold colloids to amplify the nontransparent resonant signal at ultralow analyte concentrations. The fabrication method utilizes thiol-mediated adsorption of a DNA aptamer on the immobilized Au nanoparticle surface, the interfacial binding characteristics of the aptamer with its target molecules, and the antibody-antigen interaction through plasmonic resonance coupling of the Au nanoparticles. Using lysozyme as a model analyte for disease detection, the detection limit of the aptasensor is ∼7 × 10(3) aM, corresponding to the LSPR λmax shift of ∼2.25 nm. Up to a 380% increase in the localized resonant λmax shift is demonstrated upon antibody binding to the analyte compared to the primary response during signal amplification using immunogold colloids. This enhancement leads to a limit of detection of ∼7 aM, which is an improvement of three orders of magnitude. The results demonstrate substantial promise for developing coupled plasmonic nanostructures for ultrasensitive detection of various biological and chemical analytes.

Abstract
The paper reports on a surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based approach for the sensitive and selective detection of lysozyme. The SPR sensor consists of a 50 nm gold film coated with a thin film of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) functionalized with anti-lysozyme DNA aptamer. The SPR chip coating with rGO matrix was achieved through electrophoretic deposition of graphene oxide (GO) at 150 V. Electrophoretic deposition resulted in partial reduction of GO to rGO with a thickness depending on the deposition time. For very short time pulses of 20 s, the resulting rGO film had a thickness of several nanometers and was appropriate for SPR sensing. The utility of the graphene-based SPR sensor for the selective and sensitive detection of proteins was demonstrated using lysozyme as model protein. Functionalization of rGO matrix with anti-lysozyme DNA aptamer through π-stacking interactions allowed selective SPR detection of lysozyme. The graphene-based SPR biosensor provides a means for the label-free, concentration-dependent and selective detection of lysozymes with a detection limit of 0.5 nM.

Abstract
A DNA aptamer based high-performance affinity chromatography is developed for selective extraction and screening of a basic protein lysozyme. First, a poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-ethylene dimethacrylate) monolithic column was synthesized in situ by thermally initiated radical polymerization, and then an anti-lysozyme DNA aptamer was covalently immobilized on the surface of the monolith through a 16-atom spacer arm. The target protein lysozyme but non-target proteins can be trapped by the immobilized anti-lysozyme DNA aptamer. In contrast, lysozyme cannot be trapped by the immobilized oligodeoxynucleotide that does not contain the sequence of the anti-lysozyme DNA aptamer. The study clearly demonstrates the trapping of lysozyme by the immobilized anti-lysozyme DNA aptamer is mainly due to specific recognition rather than simple electrostatic interaction of positively charged protein and the negatively charged DNA. The inter-day precision was determined as 0.8% for migration time and 4.2% for peak area, respectively. By the use of aptamer affinity monolith, a screening strategy is developed to selectively extract lysozyme from chicken egg white, showing the advantages of high efficiency, low cost and ease-of-operation.
