Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is highly prevalent worldwide, affecting more than 43% of world population. The infection can be transmitted through different routes, like oral-oral, fecal-oral, and gastric-oral. Electrochemical sensors play a crucial role in the early detection of various substances, including biomolecules. In this study, the development of nanobody (Nb)-based immunosensor for the detection of H. pylori antigens in saliva samples was investigated. The D2_Nb was isolated and characterized using Western blot and ELISA and employed in the fabrication of the immunosensor. The sensor was prepared using gold screen-printed electrodes, with the immobilization of Nb achieved through chemical linkage using cysteamine-glutaraldehyde. The surface of the electrode was characterized using EIS, FTIR and SEM. Initially, the Nb-based immunosensor's performance was evaluated through cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), and square wave voltammetry (SWV). The sensor exhibited excellent linearity with an R2 value of 0.96. However, further assessment with the DPV technique revealed both a low limit of detection (5.9 ng/mL, <1 cfu/mL) and high selectivity when exposed to a mixture of similar antigens. Moreover, the immunosensor demonstrated robust recovery rates (96.2%-103.4%) when spiked into artificial saliva and maintained its functionality when stored at room temperature for 24 days.

Abstract
The lack of reliable and efficient techniques for early monitoring to stop long-term effects on human health is an increasing problem as the pathogenesis effect of infectious bacteria is growing continuously. Therefore, developing an effective early detection technique coupled with efficient and continuous monitoring of pathogenic bacteria is increasingly becoming a global public health prime target. Electrochemical biosensors are among the strategies that can be utilized for accomplishing that goal with promising potential. In recent years, identifying target biological analytes by interacting with bioreceptors modified electrodes is among the most commonly used detection techniques in electrochemical biosensing strategies. The commonly employed bioreceptors are nucleic acid molecules (DNA or RNA), proteins, antibodies, enzymes, organisms, tissues, and biomimetic components such as molecularly imprinted polymers. Despite the advancement in electrochemical biosensing, developing a reliable and effective biosensor for detecting pathogenic bacteria is still in the infancy stage with so much room for growth. A major milestone in addressing some of the issues and improving the detection pathway is the investigation of specific bacterial detection techniques. The present study covers the fundamental concepts of electrochemical biosensors, human PB illnesses, and the latest electrochemical biosensors based on bioreceptor elements that are designed to detect specific pathogenic bacteria. This study aims to assist researchers with the most up-to-date research work in the field of bio-electrochemical pathogenic bacteria detection and monitoring.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a common pathogen with a high prevalence of infection in human populations. The diagnosis of H. pylori infection is critical for its treatment, eradication, and prognosis. Biosensors have been demonstrated to be powerful for the rapid onsite detection of pathogens, particularly for point-of-care test (POCT) scenarios. In this work, we propose a novel optical biosensor, based on nanomaterial porous silicon (PSi) and photonic surface state Tamm Plasmon Polariton (TPP), for the detection of cytotoxin-associated antigen A (CagA) of H. pylori bacterium. We fabricated the PSi TPP biosensor, analyzed its optical characteristics, and demonstrated through experiments, with the sensing of the CagA antigen, that the TPP biosensor has a sensitivity of 100 pm/(ng/mL), a limit of detection of 0.05 ng/mL, and specificity in terms of positive-to-negative ratio that is greater than six. From these performance factors, it can be concluded that the TPP biosensor can serve as an effective tool for the diagnosis of H. pylori infection, either in analytical labs or in POCT applications.

Detection of H. pylori outer membrane protein (HopQ) biomarker using electrochemical impedimetric immunosensor with polypyrrole nanotubes and carbon nanotubes nanocomposite on screen-printed carbon electrode. Biosens Bioelectron 2024; 249:115937. [PMID: 38211465 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115937] [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: 10/20/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/16/2023] [Indexed: 01/13/2024]
Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is classified as a class I carcinogen that colonizes the human gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The detection at low concentrations is crucial in combatting H. pylori. HopQ protein is located on H. pylori's outer membrane and is expressed at an early stage of contamination, which signifies it as an ideal biomarker. In this study, we presented the development of an electrochemical impedimetric immunosensor for the ultra-sensitive detection of HopQ at low concentrations. The sensor employed polypyrrole nanotubes (PPy-NTs) and carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT-COOH) nanocomposite. PPy-NTs were chosen for their excellent conductivity, biocompatibility, and redox capabilities, simplifying sample preparation by eliminating the need to add redox probes upon measurement. MWCNT-COOH provided covalent binding sites for HopQ antibodies (HopQ-Ab) on the biosensor surface. Characterization of the biosensor was performed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), contact angle measurements, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), complemented by numerical semiempirical quantum calculations. The results demonstrated a dynamic linear range of 5 pg/mL to 1.063 ng/mL and an excellent selectivity, with the possibility of excluding interference using EIS data, specifically charge transfer resistance and double-layer capacitance as multivariants for the calibration curve. Using two EIS components, the limit of detection is calculated to be 2.06 pg/mL. The biosensor was tested with a spiked drinking water sample and showed a signal recovery of 105.5% when detecting 300 pg/mL of HopQ. This novel H. pylori biosensor offers reliable, simple, portable, and rapid screening of the bacteria.

Abstract
The progression of any disease and its outcomes depend on the complicated interaction between pathogens, host and environmental factors. Thus, complete knowledge of bacterial toxins involved in pathogenesis is necessary to develop diagnostic methods and alternative therapies, including vaccines. This review summarizes recently employed biomarkers to diagnose the presence of Helicobacter pylori bacteria. The authors review distinct types of disease-associated biomarkers such as urease, DNA, miRNA, aptamers and bacteriophages that can be utilized as targets to detect Helicobacter pylori and, moreover, gastric cancer in its early stage. A detailed explanation is also given in the context of the recent utilization of these biomarkers in the development of a highly specific and sensitive biosensing platform.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a highly contagious pathogenic bacterium that can cause gastrointestinal ulcers and may gradually lead to gastric cancer. H. pylori expresses the outer membrane HopQ protein at the earliest stages of infection. Therefore, HopQ is a highly reliable candidate as a biomarker for H. pylori detection in saliva samples. In this work, an H. pylori immunosensor is based on detecting HopQ as an H. pylori biomarker in saliva. The immunosensor was developed by surface modification of screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCE) with MWCNT-COOH decorated with gold nanoparticles (AuNP) followed by HopQ capture antibody grafting on SPCE/MWCNT/AuNP surface using EDC/S-NHS chemistry. The sensor performance was investigated utilizing various methods, such as cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and scanning electron microscope (SEM) coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). H. pylori detection performance in spiked saliva samples was evaluated by square wave voltammetry (SWV). The sensor is suitable for HopQ detection with excellent sensitivity and linearity in the 10 pg/mL-100 ng/mL range, with a 2.0 pg/mL limit of detection (LOD) and an 8.6 pg/mL limit of quantification (LOQ). The sensor was tested in saliva at 10 ng/mL, and recovery of 107.6% was obtained by SWV. From Hill's model, the dissociation constant Kd for HopQ/HopQ antibody interaction is estimated to be 4.60 × 10-10 mg/mL. The fabricated platform shows high selectivity, good stability, reproducibility, and cost-effectiveness for H. pylori early detection due to the proper choice of biomarker, the nanocomposite material utilization to boost the SPCE electrical performance, and the intrinsic selectivity of the antibody-antigen approach. Additionally, we provide insight into possible future aspects that researchers are recommended to focus on.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a bacterium that can colonize human gastric epithelial cells and cause H. pylori infection, closely related to many gastric diseases. Compared with conventional H. pylori detection methods, emerging diagnostic approaches (such as biosensors) have become potentially more effective alternatives due to their high sensitivity, good selectivity and noninvasiveness. This review begins with a brief overview of H. pylori infection, the processes that lead to diseases, and current diagnostic methods. Subsequently, advanced biosensors in different target-based for diagnosing H. pylori infection are focused, including the detection of H. pylori-related nucleic acid, H. pylori-related protein (such as the cytotoxin, urease), and intact H. pylori. In addition, prospects for the development of H. pylori detection methods are also discussed in the end.

Abstract
A g-C3N4/ZnO (graphitic carbon nitride/zinc oxide) nanocomposite-decorated gold electrode was employed to design an antigen-antibody-based electrochemical biosensor to detect Helicobacter pylori specific toxin, vacuolating cytotoxin A (VacA). The thermal condensation method was used to synthesize the g-C3N4/ZnO nanocomposite, and the nanocomposite was deposited electrochemically on a gold electrode. The morphology as well as the structure of the synthesized nanocomposite were confirmed by scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray analysis, X-ray diffraction, and Fourier transform infrared techniques. The nanocomposite efficiently increased the sensor performance by amplifying the signals. EDC-NHS chemistry was exploited for attachment of VacA antibodies covalently with the g-C3N4/ZnO-modified gold electrode. This modified electrode was exploited for immunosensing of H. pylori-specific VacA antigen. The immunosensor was stable for up to 30 days and exhibited good sensitivity of 0.3 μA-1 ng mL-1 in a linear detection range of 0.1 to 12.8 ng mL-1. Apart from this, the fabricated sensor showed unprecedented reproducibility and remarkable selectivity toward the H. pylori toxin VacA. Thus, the highly sensitive immunosensor is a desirable platform for H. pylori detection in practical applications and clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori cagA + genotype is a leading risk factor for gastric cancer development making accurate identification and timely eradication of H. pylori critical to deadly gastric cancer prevention. Traditional clinical diagnostic methods, including conventional in vitro culture, histological examination, and (13/14)C-urea breath test methods, could only identify the presence of H. pylori, but these means are not capable of identification of cagA + strains. Herein, we firstly built a multiplex detection system based on novel accelerated PCR that could realize one-step detection of as low as 20 copies of H. pylori 16S rDNA and cagA genes within 30 min. In addition, this novel system performed strong anti-jamming capacity, and exhibited that it could specifically differentiate H. pylori cagA- and cagA + genotypes co-existence with other 4 kinds of gastrointestinal pathogens. Furthermore, this one-step system showed remarkable performance on rapid H. pylori infection diagnosis and cagA + genotypes identification in clinical gastric mucosa samples. Specifically, it outperformed histological examination in terms of accuracy and was superior to conventional PCR and DNA sequencing in terms of efficiency. This rapid, sensitive, and reliable H. pylori detection and identification system would break the limitation of traditional methods and realize H. pylori infection diagnosis and cagA + genotypes identification.

Abstract
With the development of materials science and biomedicine, the application of nanomaterials in the medical field is further promoted. In the process of the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, a variety of drugs need to be used. It is an ideal state to make these drugs arrive at a specific location at a specific time and release at a specific speed, which can improve the bioavailability of drugs and reduce the adverse effects of drugs on normal tissues. Traditional drug delivery methods such as tablets, capsules, syrups, and ointments have certain limitations. The emergence of a new nano-drug delivery system further improves the accuracy of drug delivery and the efficacy of drugs. It is well known that the development of the cancer of the stomach is the most serious consequence for the infection of Helicobacter pylori. For the patients who are suffering from gastric cancer, the treatments are mainly surgery, chemotherapy, targeted and immune therapy, and other comprehensive treatments. Although great progress has been made, the diagnosis and prognosis of gastric cancer are still poor with patients usually diagnosed with cancer at an advanced stage. Current treatments are of limited benefits for patients, resulting in a poor 5-year survival rate. Nanomaterials may play a critical role in early diagnosis. A nano-drug delivery system can significantly improve the chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy of advanced gastric cancer, reduce the side effects of the original treatment plan and provide patients with better benefits. It is a promising treatment for gastric cancer. This article introduces the application of nanomaterials in the diagnosis and treatment of H. pylori and gastric cancer.

Abstract
Rapid diagnosis and treatment application in the early stages of H. pylori infection plays an important part in inhibiting the transmission of this infection as this bacterium is involved in various gastric pathologies such as gastritis, gastro-duodenal ulcer, and even gastric neoplasia. This review is devoted to a quick overview of conventional and advanced detection techniques successfully applied to the detection of H. pylori in the context of a compelling need to upgrade the standards of the diagnostic methods which are currently being used. Selecting the best diagnostic method implies evaluating different features, the use of one or another test depending on accessibility, laboratories equipment, and the clinical conditions of patients. This paper aims to expose the diagnosis methods for H. pylori that are currently available, highlighting their assets and limitations. The perspectives and the advantages of nanotechnology along with the concept of nano(bio)sensors and the development of lab-on-chip devices as advanced tools for H. pylori detection, differentiation, and discrimination is also presented, by emphasizing multiple advantages: simple, fast, cost-effective, portable, miniaturized, small volume of samples required, highly sensitive, and selective. It is generally accepted that the development of intelligent sensors will completely revolutionize the acquisition procedure and medical decision in the framework of smart healthcare monitoring systems.

Advances in the Application of Nanomaterials as Treatments for Bacterial Infectious Diseases. Pharmaceutics 2021; 13:pharmaceutics13111913. [PMID: 34834328 PMCID: PMC8618949 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics13111913] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2021] [Revised: 11/08/2021] [Accepted: 11/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/01/2022] Open
Abstract
Bacteria-targeting nanomaterials have been widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of bacterial infectious diseases. These nanomaterials show great potential as antimicrobial agents due to their broad-spectrum antibacterial capacity and relatively low toxicity. Recently, nanomaterials have improved the accurate detection of pathogens, provided therapeutic strategies against nosocomial infections and facilitated the delivery of antigenic protein vaccines that induce humoral and cellular immunity. Biomaterial implants, which have traditionally been hindered by bacterial colonization, benefit from their ability to prevent bacteria from forming biofilms and spreading into adjacent tissues. Wound repair is improving in terms of both the function and prevention of bacterial infection, as we tailor nanomaterials to their needs, select encapsulation methods and materials, incorporate activation systems and add immune-activating adjuvants. Recent years have produced numerous advances in their antibacterial applications, but even further expansion in the diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases is expected in the future.

Qiu E, Li Z, Han S. Methods for detection of Helicobacter pylori from stool sample: current options and developments. Braz J Microbiol 2021; 52:2057-2062. [PMID: 34392499 PMCID: PMC8578210 DOI: 10.1007/s42770-021-00589-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2021] [Accepted: 08/03/2021] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Accurate detection of Helicobacter pylori infection and determination of antibiotics have significant meaning in clinical practice. The detection methods can be categorized into two types, invasive and non-invasive, but nowadays we use the urease breath test most frequently which is non-invasive. However, many developing countries cannot meet the requirements for having specialized equipment and they lack trained personnel. Also, for the children, it is difficult to make them cooperate for the test. Methods that detect Helicobacter pylori from stool sample can be a promising alternative for detection used in children and mass screening. Stool antigen tests have several advantages such as rapidity, simplicity, and cheapness, though their results may be influenced by the heterogenicity of antigens, the nature of biochemical techniques, and the amount of antigen presented in the stool. PCR-based methods can specifically detect Helicobacter pylori infection and antibiotic resistance by targeting specific gene sequence, but they also are limited by the requirements of facilities and experts, the existence of inhibitory substance, and interference from the dead bacteria. Some novel methods also deserve our attention. Here we summarized the results of researches about methods using stool sample and we hope our work can help clinicians choose the appropriate test in clinical practice.

Abstract
Invasive as well as non-invasive conventional techniques for the detection of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) have several limitations that are being overcome by the development of novel, rapid and reliable biosensors. Herein, we describe several biosensors fabricated for the detection of H. pylori. This review aims to provide the principles of biosensors and their components including in the context to H. pylori detection. The major biorecognition elements in H. pylori detection include antigen/antibodies, oligonucleotides and enzymes. Furthermore, the review describes the transducers, such as electrochemical, optical and piezoelectric, also including microfluidics approaches. An overview of the biomarkers associated with H. pylori pathogenesis is also discussed. Finally, the prospects of advancement and commercialization of point-of-care tools are summarized.
