Abstract
One pot sensor by multiplexing in the array is an attractive system for rapid discrimination of multiple analytes. Multiplexing can be achieved in two ways, i.e., using multiple signal transducers or adding sequential agents to the sensor media. Herein, we have used a combination of both multichannel and sequential ON-OFF strategies for the discrimination of different bioanalytes. The sensor array was constructed by implementing positively charged MoS2 as a receptor and different fluorescent proteins possessing distinguishable emission profiles as signal transducers. The sensing setup was constructed with the interaction between oppositely charged MoS2 and the host-guest combination between a cationic headgroup of MoS2 and Cucurbit [7] uril (CB7) to alter the fluorescence of signal transducers in situ noncovalently. Electrodynamic analysis and optical assays suggest that the electrostatic interaction played a major role in the modulation of the fluorescence outcomes in the array. Both cationic and anionic proteins were discriminated at a 50 nM concentration. The detection limit of the sensor array by using β-gal protein was found to be 1 nM. The sensor array was further implemented for the discrimination of normal and diseased cell lines and lysates, which indicates the versatile detection ability of this reported sensor array.

Abstract
Array based sensing governed by optical methods provides fast and economic way for detection of wide variety of analytes where the ideality of detection processes depends on the sensor element's versatile mode of interaction with multiple analytes in an unbiased manner. This can be achieved by either the receptor unit having multiple recognition moiety, or their surface property should possess tuning ability upon fabrication called surface engineering. Nanomaterials have a high surface to volume ratio, making them viable candidates for molecule recognition through surface adsorption phenomena, which makes it ideal to meet the above requirements. Most crucially, by engineering a nanomaterial's surface, one may produce cross-reactive responses for a variety of analytes while focusing solely on a single nanomaterial. Depending on the nature of receptor elements, in the last decade the array-based sensing has been considering as multimodal detection platform which operates through various pathway including single channel, multichannel, binding and indicator displacement assay, sequential ON-OFF sensing, enzyme amplified and nanozyme based sensing etc. In this review we will deliver the working principle for Array-based sensing by using various nanomaterials like nanoparticles, nanosheets, nanodots and self-assembled nanomaterials and their surface functionality for suitable molecular recognition.

Abstract
The discrimination and recognition of biological targets, such as proteins, cells, and bacteria, are of utmost importance in various fields of biological research and production. These include areas like biological medicine, clinical diagnosis, and microbiology analysis. In order to efficiently and cost-effectively identify a specific target from a wide range of possibilities, researchers have developed a technique called differential sensing. Unlike traditional "lock-and-key" sensors that rely on specific interactions between receptors and analytes, differential sensing makes use of cross-reactive receptors. These sensors offer less specificity but can cross-react with a wide range of analytes to produce a large amount of data. Many pattern recognition strategies have been developed and have shown promising results in identifying complex analytes. To create advanced sensor arrays for higher analysis efficiency and larger recognizing range, various nanomaterials have been utilized as sensing probes. These nanomaterials possess distinct molecular affinities, optical/electrical properties, and biological compatibility, and are conveniently functionalized. In this review, our focus is on recently reported optical sensor arrays that utilize nanomaterials to discriminate bioanalytes, including proteins, cells, and bacteria.

Abstract
A nitrocellulose-graphene oxide hybrid that consists of a commercially nitrocellulose (NC) membrane non-covalently modified with graphene oxide (GO) microparticles was successfully prepared for oligonucleotide extraction. The modification of NC membrane was confirmed by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), which highlighted the principal absorption bands of both the NC membrane at 1641, 1276, and 835 cm-1 (NO2) and of GO in the range of 3450 cm-1 (CH2-OH). The SEM analysis underlined the well-dispersed and uniform coverage of NC membrane with GO, which displayed thin spider web morphology. The wettability assay indicated that the NC-GO hybrid membrane exhibited slightly lower hydrophilic behavior, with a water contact angle of 26.7°, compared to the 15° contact angle of the NC control membrane. The NC-GO hybrid membranes were used to separate oligonucleotides that had fewer than 50 nucleotides (nt) from complex solutions. The features of the NC-GO hybrid membranes were tested for extraction periods of 30, 45, and 60 min in three different complex solutions, i.e., an aqueous medium, an α-Minimum Essential Medium (αMEM), and an αMEM supplemented with fetal bovine serum (FBS). The oligonucleotides were desorbed from the surface of the NC-GO hybrid membrane using Tris-HCl buffer with a pH of 8.0. Out of the three media utilized, the best results were achieved after 60 min incubation of the NC-GO membranes in αMEM, as evidenced by the highest fluorescence emission of 294 relative fluorescence units (r.f.u.). This value corresponded to the extraction of approximately 330-370 pg (≈7%) of the total oligo-DNA. This method is an efficient and effortless way to purify short oligonucleotides from complex solutions.

Abstract
Introduction Urinary tract infections (UTI) are one of the most serious human bacterial infections affecting millions of people every year. Therefore, simple and reliable identification of the urinary tract pathogenic bacteria within a few minutes would be of great significance for diagnosis and treatment of clinical patients with UTIs. In this study, the fluorescence sensor was reported to guide the detection of urinary tract bacterial infections rapidly. Methods The Ami-AuNPs-DNAs sensor was fabricated by the amino-modified Au nanoparticles (Ami-AuNPs) and six DNAs signal molecules, which bound to the urinary tract pathogenic bacteria and generated corresponding response signals. Further, based on the collected response signals, identification was performed by principal component analysis (PCA) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA). The Ami-AuNPs and Ami-AuNPs-DNAs were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, UV−vis absorption spectrum, Fourier transform infrared spectrum, dynamic light scattering and zeta potentials. Thereafter, the Ami-AuNPs-DNAs sensor was used to discriminate and identify five kinds of urinary tract pathogenic bacteria. Moreover, the quantitative analysis performance towards individual bacteria at different concentrations were also evaluated. Results The Ami-AuNPs-DNAs sensor were synthesized successfully in terms of spherical, well-dispersed and uniform in size, which could well discriminate five main urinary tract pathogenic bacteria with unique fingerprint-like patterns and was sufficiently sensitive to determine individual bacteria with a detection limit to 1×107 cfu/mL. Furthermore, the sensor had also been successfully applied to identify bacteria in urine samples collected from clinical UTIs. Conclusion The developed fluorescence sensor could be applied to rapid and accurate discrimination of urinary tract pathogenic bacteria and holds great promise for the diagnosis of the disease caused by bacterial infection.

Abstract
Two-dimensional nanomaterials are emerging as promising candidates for a wide range of biomedical applications including tissue engineering, biosensing, pathogen incapacitation, wound healing, and gene and drug delivery. Graphene, due to its high surface area, photothermal property, high loading capacity, and efficient cellular uptake, is at the forefront of these materials and plays a key role in this multidisciplinary research field. Poor water dispersibility and low functionality of graphene, however, hamper its hybridization into new nanostructures for future nanomedicine. Functionalization of graphene, either by covalent or non-covalent methods, is the most useful strategy to improve its dispersion in water and functionality as well as processability into new materials and devices. In this review, recent advances in functionalization of graphene derivatives by different (macro)molecules for future biomedical applications are reported and explained. In particular, hydrophilic functionalization of graphene and graphene oxide (GO) to improve their water dispersibility and physicochemical properties is discussed. We have focused on the anticancer drug delivery of polyfunctional graphene sheets.

Abstract
With the increasing rise of antibiotic-resistant pathogens, a simple and rapid detection of antibiotic resistance gene (ARG) is crucial to mitigate the spreading of antibiotic resistance. DNA-binding zinc finger proteins (ZFPs) can be engineered to recognize specific double-stranded (ds) DNA sequences in ARG. Here, we designed a simple and rapid method to detect ARG in bacteria utilizing engineered ZFPs and 2D nanosheet graphene oxide (GO) as a sensing platform. Our approach relies on the on and off effect of fluorescence signal in the presence and absence of target ARG, respectively. By taking advantage of the unique quenching capability of GO due to its electronic property, quantum dot (QD)-labeled ZFPs are adsorbed onto the GO sheets, and their fluorescence signal is quenched by proximal GO sheets through fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). In the presence of target DNA, ZFP binding to the target DNA induces dissociation from GO, thereby restoring the fluorescence signal. Our system detects target DNA through restoration of QD emission as the restored signal increases directly with target DNA concentrations. Engineered ZFPs were able to detect specific dsDNA of the tetracycline resistance gene tetM with high specificity after only 10 min incubation on our GO-based sensing system. Our sensing system employed one-step FRET-based ZFP and GO combined technology to enable rapid and quantitative detection of ARG, providing a limit of detection as low as 1 nM. This study demonstrated the application of GO in conjunction with engineered DNA-binding domains for the direct detection of dsDNA with great potential as a rapid and reliable screening and detecton method against the growing threat of antibiotic resistant bacteria.

Abstract
Recently, pattern-recognition-based protein sensing has received considerable attention because it offers unique opportunities that complement more conventional antibody-based detection methods. Here, we report a multichannel pattern-recognition-based sensor using a set of fluorophore-conjugated single-stranded DNAs (ssDNAs), which can detect various proteins. Three different fluorophore-conjugated ssDNAs were placed into a single microplate well together with a target protein, and the generated optical response pattern that corresponds to each environment-sensitive fluorophore was read via multiple detection channels. Multivariate analysis of the resulting optical response patterns allowed an accurate detection of eight different proteases, indicating that fluorescence signal acquisition from a single compartment containing a mixture of ssDNAs is an effective strategy for the characterization of the target proteins. Additionally, the sensor could identify proteins, which are potential targets for disease diagnosis, in a protease and inhibitor mixture of different composition ratios. As our sensor benefits from simple construction and measurement procedures, and uses accessible materials, it offers a rapid and simple platform for the detection of proteins.

Abstract
To capture a broader scope of complex biological phenomena, alternatives to conventional sensing based on specificity for cell detection and characterization are needed. Pattern-recognition-based sensing is an analytical method designed to mimic mammalian sensory systems for analyte identification based on the pattern recognition of multivariate data, which are generated using an array of multiple probes that cross-reactively interact with analytes. This sensing approach is significantly different from conventional specific cell sensing based on highly specific probes, including antibodies against biomarkers. Encouraged by the advantages of this technique, such as the simplicity, rapidity, and tunability of the systems without requiring a priori knowledge of biomarkers, numerous sensor arrays have been developed over the past decade and used in a variety of cell sensing applications; these include disease diagnosis, drug discovery, and fundamental research. This review summarizes recent progress in pattern-recognition-based cell sensing, with a particular focus on guidelines for designing materials and arrays, techniques for analyzing response patterns, and applications of sensor systems that are focused primarily for the biomedical field.

Abstract
Cells at disease onset are often associated with subtle changes in the expression level of a single or few molecular components, making traditionally used biomarker-driven clinical diagnosis a challenging task. We demonstrate here the design of a DNA nanosensor array with multichannel output that identifies the normal or pathological state of a cell based on the alteration of its global proteomic signature. Fluorophore-encoded single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) strands were coupled via supramolecular interaction with a surface-functionalized gold nanoparticle quencher to generate this integrated sensor array. In this design, ssDNA sequences exhibit dual roles, where they provide differential affinities with the receptor gold nanoparticle as well as act as transducer elements. The unique interaction mode of the analyte molecules disrupts the noncovalent supramolecular complexation, generating simultaneous multichannel fluorescence output to enable signature-based analyte identification via a linear discriminant analysis-based machine learning algorithm. Different cell types, particularly normal and cancerous cells, were effectively distinguished using their fluorescent fingerprints. Additionally, this DNA sensor array displayed excellent sensitivity to identify cellular alterations associated with chemical modulation of catabolic processes. Importantly, pharmacological effectors, which could modulate autophagic flux, have been effectively distinguished by generating responses from their global protein signatures. Taken together, these studies demonstrate that our multichannel DNA nanosensor is well suited for rapid identification of subtle changes in a complex mixture and thus can be readily expanded for point-of-care clinical diagnosis, high-throughput drug screening, or predicting the therapeutic outcome from a limited sample volume.

Abstract
The detection of proteases and their complexes with inhibitor proteins is of great importance for diagnosis and medical-treatment applications. In this study, we report a fingerprint-based sensor using an array of single-stranded DNAs (ssDNAs) labeled with environment-responsive 3'-carboxytetramethylrhodamine (TAMRA) for the identification of proteases. Four TAMRA-modified ssDNAs with different sequences solubilized in two different buffer solutions were incorporated in an array that was capable of generating fluorescent fingerprints unique to the proteases through diverse cross-reactive interactions, allowing the discrimination of (i) 8 proteases and (ii) 12 different mixtures of trypsin and its inhibitor protein (α1-antitrypsin) by multivariate analysis. Constructing an array with TAMRA-modified DNA aptamers that bind to different sites of human thrombin provides fluorescence fingerprints that reflect a reduction of the exposed surface area of thrombin upon complexation with antithrombin III, even in the presence of human serum. We finally demonstrate the potential of hybridization with complementary DNAs as an effective means to easily double the fingerprint information for proteases. Our approach based on the cross-reactive capability of ssDNAs enables high-throughput fingerprint-based sensing that can be flexibly designed and easily constructed, not only for the identification of a variety of proteins including proteases but also for the evaluation of their complexation ability.

Abstract
Biosensing based on localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) relies on concentrating light to a nanometeric spot and leads to a highly enhanced electromagnetic field near the metal nanostructure. Here, a design of plasmonic nanostructures based on rationally structured metal-dielectric combinations is presented, called composite scattering probes (CSPs), to generate an integrated multimodal biosensing platform featuring LSPR and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). Specifically, CSP configurations are proposed, which have several prominent resonance peaks enabling higher tunability and sensitivity for self-referenced multiplexed analyte sensing. Using electron-beam evaporation and thermal dewetting, large-area, uniform, and tunable CSPs are fabricated, which are suitable for label-free LSPR and SERS measurements. The CSP prototypes are used to demonstrate refractive index sensing and molecular analysis using albumin as a model analyte. By using partial least squares on recorded absorption profiles, differentiation of subtle changes in refractive index (as low as 0.001) in the CSP milieu is demonstrated. Additionally, CSPs facilitate complementary untargeted plasmon-enhanced Raman measurements from the sample's compositional contributors. With further refinement, it is envisioned that the method may lead to a sensitive, versatile, and tunable platform for quantitative concentration determination and molecular fingerprinting, particularly where limited a priori information of the sample is available.

Abstract
Mimicking sensory principles encountered in animals, whereby numerous tastants and odorants are identified based on "pattern"-like sensory inputs that are generated by arrays of sensory cells, allows creating a unique technique that is distinct from conventional chemical sensing systems, as the latter usually require specific recognition of target analytes. Herein, we present a highly discriminative small fluorescent array of block copolymers that can recognize various bioanalytes in a biomimicry manner. These polyethylene glycol/poly-l-lysine block copolymers are functionalized with fluorescein as a fluorescent reporter unit and hydrophobic amino acids as cross-reactive recognition units, which provides the ability to generate fluorescent response patterns unique to proteins and cells. Multivariate analysis on the patterns obtained with an array consisting of solely 3 block copolymers allowed identifying not only 20 proteins and 10 mammalian cells individually but also complex protein mixtures with slightly different compositions. This design guideline for creating a versatile biomimicry sensing system, which is based on the bifunctionalization of polymeric materials, is expected to offer a powerful platform for simple and high-throughput sensing of a wide variety of bioanalytes.

Abstract
A differential array consisting of commercially available common fluorescent dyes was constructed for the identification of proteins and human cancer cells. Fluorescence of dyes was differently altered by mixing with proteins and human cancer cells, generating response patterns that are unique to the analytes. Linear discriminant analysis of the obtained patterns enabled the accurate identification of eight proteins and three human cancer cells. As this system can be easily prepared, it would offer a unique opportunity for array-based differential biosensing.
