A highly sensitive point-of-care detection platform for Salmonella typhimurium by integrating magnetic enrichment and fluorescent CsPbBr 3@SiO 2. Mikrochim Acta 2024; 191:303. [PMID: 38709340 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-024-06361-w] [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: 02/16/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/07/2024]
Abstract
A platform was designed based on Fe3O4 and CsPbBr3@SiO2 for integrated magnetic enrichment-fluorescence detection of Salmonella typhimurium, which significantly simplifies the detection process and enhances the working efficiency. Fe3O4 served as a magnetic enrichment unit for the capture of S. typhimurium. CsPbBr3@SiO2 was employed as a fluorescence-sensing unit for quantitative signal output, where SiO2 was introduced to strengthen the stability of CsPbBr3, improve its biomodificability, and prevent lead leakage. More importantly, the SiO2 shell shows neglectable absorption or scattering towards fluorescence, making the CsPbBr3@SiO2 exhibit a high quantum yield of 74.4%. After magnetic enrichment, the decreasing rate of the fluorescence emission intensity of the CsPbBr3@SiO2 supernatant at 527 nm under excitation light at UV 365 nm showed a strong linear correlation with S. typhimurium concentration of 1 × 102~1 × 108 CFU∙mL-1, and the limit of detection (LOD) reached 12.72 CFU∙mL-1. This platform has demonstrated outstanding stability, reproducibility, and resistance to interference, which provides an alternative for convenient and quantitative detection of S. typhimurium.

Mikrochim Acta 2023; 191:29.

Abstract
A novel nucleic acid aptamer nanoprobes-mediated hairpin allosteric and aptamer-assisted CRISPR system for detection of Streptococcus pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus is presented. In this fluorescence assay system, utilizing the hairpin allosteric effect caused by the aptamer binding to the target bacteria, the detection of S. pneumoniae is first achieved through changes in fluorescence due to FRET. Subsequently, a Cas12a protein mixture is added to detect S. aureus. The amplified output signal is triggered by two methods to ensure the sensitivity of the method: the synergistic FRET effect is achieved by the assembly of multi-aptamer through the conjugation of streptavidin-biotin, and the trans-cleavage function of CRISPR/Cas 12a. Under the optimized conditions, the proposed hairpin allosteric aptasensor could achieve high sensitivity (a detection limit of 135 cfu/mL) and broad-concentration quantification (dynamic range of 103-107 cfu/mL) of S. pneumoniae. The aptamer-assisted CRISPR system for S. aureus detection showed good linearity (R2 = 0.996) in the concentration range 102-108 cfu/mL, with a detection limit of 39 cfu/mL. No cross-reactivity with other foodborne pathogenic bacteria was observed in both systems. Taking only 55 min, this method of multiple pathogen detection proved to be promising.

Abstract
Simultaneous detection of multiple foodborne pathogens is of great importance for ensuring food safety. Herein, we present a sensitive dual-channel electrochemical biosensor based on copper metal organic frameworks (CuMOF) and lead metal organic framework (PbMOF) for simultaneous detection of Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium) and Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes). The MOF-based nanotags were prepared by functionalizing gold nanoparticles loaded CuMOF (Au@CuMOF) and PbMOF (Au@PbMOF) with signal DNA sequences 1 (sDNA1) and sDNA2, respectively. By selecting invA of S. typhimurium and inlA gene of L. monocytogenes as targe sequences, a sandwich-typed dual-channel biosensor was developed on glassy carbon electrodes (GCE) through hybridization reactions. The sensitive detection of S. typhimurium and L. monocytogenes was achieved by the direct differential pulse voltametric (DPV) signals of Cu2+ and Pb2+. Under optimal conditions, channel 1 of the biosensor showed linear range for invA gene of S. typhimurium in 1 × 10-14-1 × 10-8 M with low detection limit (LOD) of 3.42 × 10-16 M (S/N = 3), and channel 2 of the biosensor showed linear range for inlA gene of L. monocytogenes in 1 × 10-13-1 × 10-8 M with LOD of 6.11 × 10-15 M (S/N = 3). The dual-channel biosensor showed good selectivity which were used to detect S. typhimurium with linear range of 5-1.0 × 104 CFU mL-1 (LOD of 2.33 CFU mL-1), and L. monocytogenes with linear range of 10 - 1.0 × 104 CFU mL-1 (LOD of 6.61 CFU mL-1).

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) sandwich biosensors have received tremendous attention in early diagnosis of bacterial infections. However, efficiently engineering nanoscale plasmonic hots pots (HS) towards ultrasensitive SERS detection still remains challenging. Herein, we propose a bioinspired synergistic HS engineering strategy to construct ultrasensitive SERS sandwich bacterial sensor (named USSB), by coupling bioinspired signal module and plasmonic enrichment module to synergistically boost the number and intensity of HS. The bioinspired signal module is based on dendritic mesoporous silica nanocarrier (DMSN) loaded with plasmonic nanoparticles and SERS tag, while magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles coated with Au shell are employed in plasmonic enrichment module. We demonstrate that DMSN effectively shrank nanogaps between plasmonic nanoparticles to improve HS intensity. Meanwhile, plasmonic enrichment module contributed to plenty of additional HS inside and outside individual "sandwich". Ascribing to the boosted number and intensity of HS, the constructed USSB sensor exhibits ultrahigh detection sensitivity (7 CFU/mL) and selectivity towards model pathogenic bacteria of Staphylococcus aureus. Remarkably, the USSB sensor enables fast and accurate bacterial detection in real blood samples of septic mice, achieving early diagnosis of bacterial sepsis. The proposed bioinspired synergistic HS engineering strategy opens up a new direction for constructing ultrasensitive SERS sandwich biosensors, and may promote their advancing applications in the early diagnosis and prognosis of devastating diseases.

Abstract
Aptamers have received extensive attention in recent years because of their advantages of high specificity, high sensitivity and low immunogenicity. Aptamers can perform almost all functions of antibodies through the combination of spatial structure and target, which are called "chemical antibodies". At present, aptamers have been widely used in cell imaging, new drug development, disease treatment, microbial detection and other fields. Due to the diversity of modifications, aptamers can be combined with different detection technologies to construct aptasensors. This review focuses on the diversity of aptamers in the field of detection and the development of aptamer-based detection technology and proposes new challenges for aptamers in this field.

Abstract
In this study, we aimed to introduce a new electrochemical aptasensor based on the tyramide signal amplification (TSA) technology for a highly-sensitive detection of the pathogenic bacterium, Staphylococcus aureus, as a model of foodborne pathogens. In this aptasensor, the primary aptamer, SA37, was used to specifically capture bacterial cells; the secondary aptamer, SA81@HRP, was used as the catalytic probe; and a TSA-based signal enhancement system comprising of biotinyl-tyramide and streptavidin-HRP as electrocatalytic signal tags was adopted to fabricate the sensor and improve the detection sensitivity. S. aureus cells were selected as the pathogenic bacteria to verify the analytical performance of this TSA-based signal-enhancement electrochemical aptasensor platform. After the simultaneous binding of SA37-S. aureus-SA81@HRP formed on the gold electrode, thousands of @HRP molecules could be bound onto the biotynyl tyramide (TB) displayed on the bacterial cell surface through a catalytic reaction between HRP and H2O2, resulting in the generation of the highly amplified signals mediated by HRP reactions. This developed aptasensor could detect S. aureus bacterial cells at an ultra-low concentration, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 3 CFU/mL in buffer. Furthermore, this chronoamperometry aptasensor successfully detected target cells in both tap water and beef broth with LOD to be 8 CFU/mL, which are very high sensitivity and specificity. Overall, this electrochemical aptasensor using TSA-based signal-enhancement could be a very useful tool for the ultrasensitive detection of foodborne pathogens in food and water safety and environmental monitoring.

A universal approach for sensitive and rapid detection of different pathogenic bacteria based on aptasensor-assisted SERS technique. Anal Bioanal Chem 2023; 415:1529-1543.

Abstract
An assembled-aptasensor based on Fe3O4@Au@Ag nanocomposites grafting onto the gold foil was prepared, which can be developed into a universal approach for sensitive and rapid detection of various pathogenic bacteria, such as Escherichia coli (E. coli), Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium), Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa), and Shigella flexneri (S. flexneri). Firstly, the gold foil paper was modified with thiolated capture probe and SERS tag in proportion, and at the same time, the specific thiolated aptamer probe for corresponding pathogenic bacteria was fixed with Fe3O4@Au@Ag nanocomposites. An obvious Raman signal can be subsequently increased about 106 times by the external electromagnetic field enhancement at the "hot spots" caused by the hybridization of aptamer and capture probe. But in the presence of target pathogenic bacteria, Raman intensity will decrease as Fe3O4@Au@Ag nanocomposites are dissociated from gold foil. Thus, all of the concentrations of the six kinds of pathogenic bacteria both in PBS and liquorice extract showed an obvious negative linear correlation with the Raman intensity of SERS tag in the range of 10-107 CFU/mL with detection limits were all lower than 10 CFU/mL. And there was no significant difference between our method and the plate counting method. Besides, the assembled-aptasensor had superior specific recognition ability even in the mixed interfering bacteria. Our study showed that this assembled-aptasensor had good specific detection ability to a variety of foodborne pathogens based on magnetic field-assisted SERS technique, which can be used for rapid and sensitive detection of a variety of pathogens in complex substrates.

Abstract
The detection of foodborne pathogenic bacteria currently relies on their ability to grow on chemically defined liquid and solid media, which is the essence of the classical microbiological approach. Such procedures are time-consuming and the quality of the result is affected by the selectivity of the media employed. Several alternative strategies based on the detection of molecular markers have been proposed. These markers may be cell constituents, may reside on the cell envelope or may be specific metabolites. Each marker provides specific advantages and, at the same time, suffers from specific limitations. The food matrix and chemical composition, as well as the accompanying microbiota, may also severely compromise detection. The aim of the present review article is to present and critically discuss all available information regarding the molecular targets that have been employed as markers for the detection of foodborne pathogens. Their strengths and limitations, as well as the proposed alleviation strategies, are presented, with particular emphasis on their applicability in real food systems and the challenges that are yet to be effectively addressed.

Abstract
Rapid qualitative and quantitative detection of Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium) takes an important role in ensuring food safety. Herein, a colorimetric assay aptasensor for S. typhimurium utilizing intrinsic peroxidase-like activity of gold nanoparticles embedded spherical covalent organic framework and the affinity and specificity of S. typhimurium-aptamer has been explored. This aptasensor can capture the S. typhimurium via the selective binding effect of aptamer, and the catalytically active sites were shielded. As a result, the colorimetric signals of the 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine-H2O2 system were turned off. Under optimum conditions, the aptasensor gave a linear response over the range of 10 to 107 CFU/mL for S. typhimurium. The detection limit of 7 CFU/mL was obtained within 45 min and was effectively applied to detect S. typhimurium in milk and lake water samples with recoveries in the range from 96.4 to 101.0%. More importantly, combined with a self-developed smartphone-based image analysis system, the proposed aptasensor can be used for point-of-care testing applications.

Abstract
Staphylococcus spp., especially Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), is an important pathogen in hospital-acquired infection and food poisoning. Here, we developed a multienzyme isothermal rapid amplification combined with duplex quantitative PCR (duplex MIRA-qPCR) method, which can simultaneously detect the S. aureus species-specific conserved gene FMN-bgsfp and the Staphylococcus genus-specific conserved gene tuf. This assay enabled the amplification of DNA within 20 min at a constant temperature of 39 °C. Specificity analysis indicated that all nine common Staphylococcus species were positive and non-Staphylococcus spp. were negative for tuf gene, whereas S. aureus was positive, non-aureus Staphylococci species and non-Staphylococcus spp. were negative for FMN-bgsfp gene, suggesting that duplex MIRA-qPCR exhibited high specificity. Meanwhile, the sensitivity was tested and the limit of detection (LoD) was 3 × 102 CFU/mL. The coefficient variation values ranged from 0.13% to 2.09%, indicating that the assay had good repeatability. Furthermore, all the nine common Staphylococcus species (including S. aureus) could be detected from four kinds of simulated samples and the LoD of S. aureus was 8.56 × 103 CFU/mL. In conclusion, the duplex MIRA-qPCR has advantages of stronger specificity, lower detection threshold, shorter detection time, and simpler operation, which is an effective tool to detect S. aureus and non-aureus Staphylococci spp. infections rapidly.

Abstract
It is well known that food safety has aroused extensive attentions from governments to researchers and to food industries. As a versatile technology based on molecular interactions, aptamer sensors which could specifically identify a wide range of food contaminants have been extensively studied in recent years. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy integrated aptamer combines the advantages of both technologies, not only in the ability to specifically identify a wide range of food contaminants, but also in the ultra-high sensitivity, simplicity, portable and speed. To provide beneficial insights into the evaluation techniques in the field of food safety, we offer a comprehensive review on the design strategies for aptamer-SERS sensors in different scenarios, including non-nucleic acid amplification methods ("on/off" mode, sandwich mode, competition model and catalytic model) and nucleic acid amplification methods (hybridization chain reaction, rolling circle amplification, catalytic hairpin assembly). Meanwhile, a special attention is paid to the application of aptamer-SERS sensors in biological (foodborne pathogenic, bacteria and mycotoxins) and chemical contamination (drug residues, metal ions, and food additives) of food matrix. Finally, the challenges and prospects of developing reliable aptamer-SERS sensors for food safety were discussed, which are expected to offer a strong guidance for further development and extended applications.

Abstract
We developed an effective and specific colorimetric strategy to detect Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium) based on hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB)-induced supramolecular assembly of β-cyclodextrin-capped gold nanoparticles (β-CD-AuNPs). In this study, ssDNA aptamer of S. typhimurium could combine with CTAB to form the supramolecular ssDNA-CTAB composite, so the ssDNA aptamer was applied to control the concentration of CTAB. In the presence of S. typhimurium, ssDNA aptamers selectively bound to S. typhimurium but not to CTAB, leading to the host-guest chemistry reaction of CTAB and β-CD resulting in β-CD-AuNP supramolecular assembly aggregation with an obvious color change. The ratio of absorption at 650 and 520 nm (A650nm/A520nm) has a linear correlation to the log scale of the concentration of the bacteria (1 × 102-1 × 107 CFU/mL) with a low limit of detection (LOD) of 13 CFU/mL. In addition, this optical sensor has good selectivity and practicability. In milk samples, the recovery was 93.55-111.32%, which suggested its potential application in real samples.

Abstract
The infection of Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus) and the spread of drug-resistant bacteria pose a serious threat to global public health. Therefore, timely, rapid and accurate detection of S. aureus is of great significance for food safety, environmental monitoring, clinical diagnosis and treatment, and prevention of drug-resistant bacteria dissemination. Traditional S. aureus detection methods such as culture identification, ELISA, PCR, MALDI-TOF-MS and sequencing, etc., have good sensitivity and specificity, but they are complex to operate, requiring professionals and expensive and complex machines. Therefore, it is still challenging to develop a fast, simple, low-cost, specific and sensitive S. aureus detection method. Recent studies have demonstrated that fast, specific, low-cost, low sample volume, automated, and portable aptasensors have been widely used for S. aureus detection and have been proposed as the most attractive alternatives to their traditional detection methods. In this review, recent advances of aptasensors based on different transducer (optical and electrochemical) for S. aureus detection have been discussed in details. Furthermore, the applications of aptasensors in point-of-care testing (POCT) have also been discussed. More and more aptasensors are combined with nanomaterials as efficient transducers and amplifiers, which appears to be the development trend in aptasensors. Finally, some significant challenges for the development and application of aptasensors are outlined.

Anal Bioanal Chem 2022; 414:2757-2766. [PMID: 35141764 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-022-03923-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2021] [Revised: 01/09/2022] [Accepted: 01/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
Abscisic acid (ABA), as the most common plant hormone in the growth of wheat, can greatly affect the yield when its levels deviate from normal. Therefore, highly sensitive and selective detection of this hormone is greatly needed. In this work, we developed an aptamer sensor based on surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and applied it for the high sensitivity detection of ABA. Biotin-modified ABA aptamer complement chains were modified on ferrosoferric oxide magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4MNPs) and acted as capture probes, and sulfhydryl aptamer (SH-Apt)-modified silver-coated gold nanospheres (Au@Ag NPs) were used as signal probes. Through the recognition of the ABA aptamer and its complementary chains, an aptamer sensor based on SERS was constructed. As SERS internal standard molecules of 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (4-MBA) were encapsulated between the gold core and silver shell of the signal probes; the constructed aptamer sensor generated a strong SERS signal of 4-MBA after magnetic separation. When there were ABA molecules in the detection system, with the preferential binding of ABA aptamer and ABA molecule, the signal probes were released from the capture probes, after magnetic separation, leading to a linear decrease in SERS intensity of 4-MBA. Thus, the detection response was linear over a logarithmic concentration range, with an ultra-low detection limit of 0.67 fM. In addition, the practical use of this assay method was demonstrated in ABA detection from fresh wheat leaves, with a relative error (RE) of 5.43-8.94% when compared with results from enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The low RE value proves that the aptamer sensor will be a promising method for ABA detection.

Abstract
Salmonella contamination in food production and processing is a serious threat to consumer health. More and more rapid detection methods have been proposed to compensate for the inefficiency of traditional bacterial cultures to suppress the high prevalence of Salmonella more efficiently. The contamination of Salmonella in foods can be identified by recognition elements and screened using rapid detection methods with different measurable signals (optical, electrical, etc.). Therefore, the different signal transduction mechanisms and Salmonella recognition elements are the key of the sensitivity, accuracy and specificity for the rapid detection methods. In this review, the bioreceptors for Salmonella were firstly summarized and described, then the current promising Salmonella rapid detection methods in foodstuffs with different signal transduction were objectively summarized and evaluated. Moreover, the challenges faced by these methods in practical monitoring and the development prospect were also emphasized to shed light on a new perspective for the Salmonella rapid detection methods applications.
