Abstract
Due to their life cycle, viruses can disrupt the metabolism of their hosts, causing diseases. If we want to disrupt their life cycle, it is necessary to identify their presence. For this purpose, it is possible to use several molecular-biological and bioanalytical methods. The reference selection was performed based on electronic databases (2020-2023). This review focused on electrochemical methods with high sensitivity and selectivity (53% voltammetry/amperometry, 33% impedance, and 12% other methods) which showed their great potential for detecting various viruses. Moreover, the aforementioned electrochemical methods have considerable potential to be applicable for care-point use as they are portable due to their miniaturizability and fast speed analysis (minutes to hours), and are relatively easy to interpret. A total of 2011 articles were found, of which 86 original papers were subsequently evaluated (the majority of which are focused on human pathogens, whereas articles dealing with plant pathogens are in the minority). Thirty-two species of viruses were included in the evaluation. It was found that most of the examined research studies (77%) used nanotechnological modifications. Other ones performed immunological (52%) or genetic analyses (43%) for virus detection. 5% of the reports used peptides to increase the method's sensitivity. When evaluable, 65% of the research studies had LOD values in the order of ng or nM. The vast majority (79%) of the studies represent proof of concept and possibilities with low application potential and a high need of further research experimental work.

Abstract
Viral infections can pose a major threat to public health by causing serious illness, leading to pandemics, and burdening healthcare systems. The global spread of such infections causes disruptions to every aspect of life including business, education, and social life. Fast and accurate diagnosis of viral infections has significant implications for saving lives, preventing the spread of the diseases, and minimizing social and economic damages. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based techniques are commonly used to detect viruses in the clinic. However, PCR has several drawbacks, as highlighted during the recent COVID-19 pandemic, such as long processing times and the requirement for sophisticated laboratory instruments. Therefore, there is an urgent need for fast and accurate techniques for virus detection. For this purpose, a variety of biosensor systems are being developed to provide rapid, sensitive, and high-throughput viral diagnostic platforms, enabling quick diagnosis and efficient control of the virus's spread. Optical devices, in particular, are of great interest due to their advantages such as high sensitivity and direct readout. The current review discusses solid-phase optical sensing techniques for virus detection, including fluorescence-based sensors, surface plasmon resonance (SPR), surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), optical resonators, and interferometry-based platforms. Then, we focus on an interferometric biosensor developed by our group, the single-particle interferometric reflectance imaging sensor (SP-IRIS), which has the capability to visualize single nanoparticles, to demonstrate its application for digital virus detection.

Abstract
Viral infections are responsible for the deaths of millions of people throughout the world. Since outbreak of highly contagious and mutant viruses such as contemporary sars-cov-2 pandemic, has challenged the conventional diagnostic methods, the entity of a thoroughly sensitive, specific, rapid and inexpensive detecting technique with minimum level of false-positivity or -negativity, is desperately needed more than any time in the past decades. Biosensors as minimized devices could detect viruses in simple formats. So far, various nucleic acid, immune- and protein-based biosensors were designed and tested for recognizing the genome, antigen, or protein level of viruses, respectively; however, nucleic acid-based sensing techniques, which is the foundation of constructing genosensors, are preferred not only because of their ultra-sensitivity and applicability in the early stages of infections but also for their ability to differentiate various strains of the same virus. To date, the review articles related to genosensors are just confined to particular pathogenic diseases; In this regard, the present review covers comprehensive information of the research progress of the electrochemical, optical, and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) genosensors that applied for human viruses' diseases detection and also provides a well description of viruses' clinical importance, the conventional diagnosis approaches of viruses and their disadvantages. This review would address the limitations in the current developments as well as the future challenges involved in the successful construction of sensing approaches with the functionalized nanomaterials and also allow exploring into core-research works regarding this area.

The perspectives of biomarker-based electrochemical immunosensors, artificial intelligence and the Internet of Medical Things toward COVID-19 diagnosis and management. MATERIALS TODAY.

[PMID: 33615086 PMCID: PMC7877231 DOI: 10.1016/j.mtchem.2021.100443] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2020] [Revised: 12/01/2020] [Accepted: 02/04/2021] [Indexed: 05/08/2023]
Abstract
The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the COVID-19 an international health emergency due to the severity of infection progression, which became more severe due to its continuous spread globally and the unavailability of appropriate therapy and diagnostics systems. Thus, there is a need for efficient devices to detect SARS-CoV-2 infection at an early stage. Nowadays, the reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) technique is being applied for detecting this virus around the globe; however, factors such as stringent expertise, long diagnostic times, invasive and painful screening, and high costs have restricted the use of RT-PCR methods for rapid diagnostics. Therefore, the development of cost-effective, portable, sensitive, prompt and selective sensing systems to detect SARS-CoV-2 in biofluids at fM/pM/nM concentrations would be a breakthrough in diagnostics. Immunosensors that show increased specificity and sensitivity are considerably fast and do not imply costly reagents or instruments, reducing the cost for COVID-19 detection. The current developments in immunosensors perhaps signify the most significant opportunity for a rapid assay to detect COVID-19, without the need of highly skilled professionals and specialized tools to interpret results. Artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) can also be equipped with this immunosensing approach to investigate useful networking through database management, sharing, and analytics to prevent and manage COVID-19. Herein, we represent the collective concepts of biomarker-based immunosensors along with AI and IoMT as smart sensing strategies with bioinformatics approach to monitor non-invasive early stage SARS-CoV-2 development, with fast point-of-care (POC) diagnostics as the crucial goal. This approach should be implemented quickly and verified practicality for clinical samples before being set in the present times for mass-diagnostic research.

Abstract
The proliferation and transmission of viruses has become a threat to worldwide biosecurity, as exemplified by the current COVID-19 pandemic. Early diagnosis of viral infection and disease control have always been critical. Virus detection can be achieved based on various plasmonic phenomena, including propagating surface plasmon resonance (SPR), localized SPR, surface-enhanced Raman scattering, surface-enhanced fluorescence and surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy. The present review covers all available information on plasmonic-based virus detection, and collected data on these sensors based on several parameters. These data will assist the audience in advancing research and development of a new generation of versatile virus biosensors.

Abstract
Because of numerous inherent and unique characteristics of phytochemicals as bioactive compounds derived from plants, they have been widely used as one of the most interesting nature-based compounds in a myriad of fields. Moreover, a wide variety of phytochemicals offer a plethora of fascinating optical and electrochemical features that pave the way toward their development as optical and electrochemical (bio)sensors for clinical/health diagnostics, environmental monitoring, food quality control, and bioimaging. In the current review, we highlight how phytochemicals have been tailored and used for a wide variety of optical and electrochemical (bio)sensing and bioimaging applications, after classifying and introducing them according to their chemical structures. Finally, the current challenges and future directions/perspective on the optical and electrochemical (bio)sensing applications of phytochemicals are discussed with the goal of further expanding their potential applications in (bio)sensing technology. Regarding the advantageous features of phytochemicals as highly promising and potential biomaterials, we envisage that many of the existing chemical-based (bio)sensors will be replaced by phytochemical-based ones in the near future.

Abstract
Solid-state nanopores have been employed as useful tools for single molecule analysis due to their advantages of easy fabrication and controllable diameter, but selectivity is always a big concern for complicated samples. In this work, functionalized magnetic core-shell Fe3O4-Au nanoparticles, which acted as a molecular carrier, were introduced into nanopore electrochemical system for microRNA sensing in complicated samples with high sensitivity, selectivity and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). This strategy is based on the specific affinity between neutral peptide nucleic acids (PNA)-modified Fe3O4-Au nanoparticles and negative miRNA, and the formation of negative Fe3O4-Au-PNA-miRNA complex, which can pass through the nanopore by application of a positive potential and eliminate neutral Fe3O4-Au-PNA complex. To detect miRNA in complicated samples, a magnet has been used to separate Fe3O4-Au-PNA-miRNA complex with good selectivity. We think this is a facile and effective method for the detection of different targets at single molecular level, including nucleic acids, proteins, and other small molecules, which will open up a new approach in the nanopore sensing field.

Abstract
Peptide Nucleic Acids − DNA/RNA analogues. Different Modifications on PNA backbone and their effects. Neutral backbone − remarkable hybridization properties. PNA based biosensors and their diverse biomedical applications. Potential antigene and antisense agents.
Peptide Nucleic Acids (PNAs) are the DNA/RNA analogues in which sugar-phosphate backbone is replaced by N-2-aminoethylglycine repeating units. PNA contains neutral backbone hence due to the absence of electrostatic repulsion, its hybridization shows remarkable stability towards complementary oligonucleotides. PNAs are highly resistant to cleavage by chemicals and enzymes due to the substrate specific nature of enzymes and therefore not degraded inside the cells. PNAs are emerging as new tools in the market due to their applications in antisense and antigene therapies by inhibiting translation and transcription respectively. Hence, several methods based on PNAs have been developed for designing various anticancer and antigene drugs, detection of mutations or modulation of PCR reactions. The duplex homopurine sequence of DNA may also be recognized by PNA, forming firm PNA/DNA/PNA triplex through strand invasion with a looped-out DNA strand. PNAs have also been found to replace DNA probes in varied investigative purposes. There are several disadvantages regarding cellular uptake of PNA, so modifications in PNA backbone or covalent coupling with cell penetrating peptides is necessary to improve its delivery inside the cells. In this review, hybridization properties along with potential applications of PNA in the field of diagnostics and pharmaceuticals are elaborated.

Abstract
Based on the strong interaction between single-stranded DNA (ss-DNA) and graphene material, we have constructed a novel label-free electrochemical biosensor for rapid and facile detection of short sequences ss-DNA molecules related to hepatitis C virus 1a using graphene oxide modified pencil graphite electrode. The sensing mechanism is based on the superior adsorption of single-stranded DNA to GO over double stranded DNA (ds-DNA). The intrinsic guanine oxidation signal measured by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) has been used for duplex DNA formation detection. The probe ss-DNA adsorbs onto the surface of GO via the π- π* stacking interactions leading to a strong background guanine oxidation signal. In the presence of complementary target, formation of helix which has weak binding ability to GO induced ds-DNA to release from the electrode surface and significant variation in differential pulse voltammetric response of guanine bases. The results indicated that the oxidation peak current was proportional to the concentration of complementary strand in the range of 0.1 nM-0.5 μM with a detection limit of 4.3 × 10-11 M. The simple fabricated electrochemical biosensor has high sensitivity, good selectivity, and could be applied as a new platform for a range of target molecules in future.

Abstract
Hepatitis C is a liver disease that is transmitted through contact with the blood of an infected person. An estimated 150 million individuals worldwide have been chronically infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV). Hepatitis C shows significant genetic variation in the global population, due to the high rate of viral RNA mutation. There are six variants of the virus (HCV genotypes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6), with 15 recorded subtypes that vary in prevalence across different regions of the world. A variety of devices are used to diagnose hepatitis C, including HCV antibody test, HCV viral load test, HCV genotype test and liver biopsy. Rapid, inexpensive, sensitive, and robust analytical devices are therefore essential for effective diagnosis and monitoring of disease treatment. This review provides an overview of current electrochemical immunosensor and genosensor technologies employed in HCV detection. There are a limited number of publications showing electrochemical biosensors being used for the detection of HCV. Due to their simplicity, specificity, and reliability, electrochemical biosensor devices have potential clinical applications in several viral infections.

Abstract
Development of an electrochemical DNA biosensor for direct detection and discrimination of double-stranded plasmid (ds-Pl) without the need for denaturation of the target plasmid sample using a peptide nucleic acid (PNA) oligomer as the probe is described. This goal was achieved by modification of gold electrode with 6-mercapto-1-hexanol following monolayer self-assembly of cysteine conjugated 20-mer PNA oligomer probe, complementary to the HCV core/E1 region, which binds to ds-Pl and forms PNA/ds-Pl structure. The significant variation in differential pulse voltammetric response of methylene blue on the probe modified electrode upon contacting with complementary double-strand plasmid to form PNA/ds-Pl triplex structure is the principle of target plasmid detection. The results indicated that the reduction peak current was linear with the concentration of complementary strand in the range of 10-300 pg/μl with a detection limit of 9.5 pg/μl.

Abstract
Nucleic acid biosensors have a growing number of applications in genetics and biomedicine. This contribution is a critical review of the current state of the art concerning the use of nucleic acid analogues, in particular peptide nucleic acids (PNA) and locked nucleic acids (LNA), for the development of high-performance affinity biosensors. Both PNA and LNA have outstanding affinity for natural nucleic acids, and the destabilizing effect of base mismatches in PNA- or LNA-containing heterodimers is much higher than in double-stranded DNA or RNA. Therefore, PNA- and LNA-based biosensors have unprecedented sensitivity and specificity, with special applicability in DNA genotyping. Herein, the most relevant PNA- and LNA-based biosensors are presented, and their advantages and their current limitations are discussed. Some of the reviewed technology, while promising, still needs to bridge the gap between experimental status and the harder reality of biotechnological or biomedical applications.

Abstract
This paper reports, for the first time, the influence of the length and the terminating head group of blocking thiols on the sensitivity and specificity of a label-free capacitive DNA detection system using immobilized pyrrolidinyl peptide nucleic acid (acpcPNA) probes. A C-terminal lysine-modified acpcPNA was immobilized through four different alkanethiol self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), i.e., 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA), thioctic acid (TA), thiourea (TU) and mercaptosuccinic acid (MSA). The hybridization between the acpcPNA probes and the target DNA was directly measured using the capacitive system. Five blocking thiols of various lengths (C=3, 6, 8, 9 and 11), with the -OH terminating head group, i.e., 3-mercapto-1-propanol (3-MPL), 6-mercapto-1-hexanol (6-MHL), 8-mercapto-1-octanol (8-MOL), 9-mercapto-1-nonanol (9-MNL), 11-mercapto-1-undecanol (11-MUL) and another blocking thiol (C=11) with a -CH(3) terminating head group, and 1-dodecanethiol (1-DDT) were investigated. The blocking thiol with the same length as the total spacer of the immobilized acpcPNA gave the highest sensitivity and specificity with the -OH terminating head group providing a slightly better signal than the -CH(3) group. Under the optimized conditions, the immobilized acpcPNA probes provided a wide linear range for DNA detection (1.0 × 10(-11)-1.0 × 10(-8)M) with a very low detection limit in the picomolar range. The modified acpcPNA electrode could be reused through at least 58 cycles. The high sensitivity and very low detection limits are potentially useful for the analysis of ultra-trace levels of DNA in samples. Preliminary studies were also performed to see the effect of probe concentration and target length.

Abstract
A homothymine PNA decamer bearing four lysine residues has been synthesized as a probe for the development of amperometric sensors. On one hand, the four amino groups introduced make this derivative nine times more soluble than the corresponding homothymine PNA decamer and, on the other hand, allow the stable anchoring of this molecule on Au nanostructured surface through the terminal -NH2 moieties. In particular, XPS and electrochemical investigations performed with hexylamine, as a model molecule, indicate that the stable deposition of primary amine derivatives on such a nanostructured surface is possible and involves the free electron doublet on the nitrogen atom. This finding indicates that this PNA derivative is suitable to act as the probe molecule for the development of amperometric sensors.
Thanks to the molecular probe chosen and to the use of a nanostructured surface as the substrate for the sensor assembly, the device proposed makes possible the selective recognition of the target oligonucleotide sequence with very high sensitivity.

Abstract
In recent years, bioanalytical technology based on G-quadruplex has been paid significant attention due to its versatility and stimulus-responsive reconfiguration. Notwithstanding, several key issues for template-directed reassembly of G-quadruplex have not been resolved: what is the key factor for determining the sensitivity and selectivity of split G-quadruplex probes toward target DNA. Therefore, in this study, we designed three pairs of split G-quadruplex probes and investigated the sensitivity and selectivity of these systems in terms of potassium ion concentration and split modes of G-quadruplex. Due to its simplicity and sensitivity, N-methyl-mesoporphyrin (NMM) as fluorescence probes was used to monitor the target-directed reassembling process of G-quadruplex. A G-quadruplex sequence derived from the c-Myc promoter was split into "symmetric" probes, where each fragment contained two runs of guanine residues (2+2), or into "asymmetric" fragments each containing (3+1 or 1+3) runs of guanine residues. In all three cases, the sensitivity of target detection was highly dependent on the thermodynamic stability of the hybrid structure, which can be modulated by potassium ion concentrations. Using a combination of CD, fluorescence, and UV spectroscopy, we found that increasing potassium concentrations can increase the sensitivity of target detection, but can decrease the selectivity of discriminating cognate versus mismatched "target" DNA. The previous argument that asymmetrically split probes were always better than symmetrically split probes in terms of selectivity was not plausible anymore. These results demonstrate how the sensitivities and selectivity of split probes to mutations can be optimized by tuning the thermodynamic stability of the three-way junction complex.

Abstract
Peptide Nucleic Acids (PNAs) are non-natural DNA/RNA analogues with favourable physico-chemical properties and promising applications. Discovered nearly 20 years ago, PNAs have recently re-gained quite a lot of attention. In this Perspective article, we discuss the latest advances on the preparation and utilisation of PNA monomers and oligomers containing metal complexes. These metal- conjugates have found applications in various research fields such as in the sequence-specific detection of nucleic acids, in the hydrolysis of nucleic acids and peptides, as radioactive probes or as modulators of PNA·DNA hybrid stability, and last but not least as probes for molecular and cell biology.

Abstract
In this study we have used two fluorescent probes, tetrakis(diisopropylguanidino)-zinc-phthalocyanine (Zn-DIGP) and N-methylmesoporphyrin IX (NMM), to monitor the reassembly of "split" G-quadruplex probes on hybridization with an arbitrary "target" DNA. According to this approach, each split probe is designed to contain half of a G-quadruplex-forming sequence fused to a variable sequence that is complementary to the target DNA. Upon mixing the individual components, both base-pairing interactions and G-quadruplex fragment reassembly result in a duplex-quadruplex three-way junction that can bind to fluorescent dyes in a G-quadruplex-specific way. The overall fluorescence intensities of the resulting complexes were dependent on the formation of proper base-pairing interactions in the duplex regions, and on the exact identity of the fluorescent probe. Compared with samples lacking any "target" DNA, the fluorescence intensities of Zn-DIGP-containing samples were lower, and the fluorescence intensities of NMM-containing samples were higher on addition of the target DNA. The resulting biosensors based on Zn-DIGP are therefore termed "turn-off" whereas the biosensors containing NMM are defined as "turn-on". Both of these biosensors can detect target DNAs with a limit of detection in the nanomolar range, and can discriminate mismatched from perfectly matched target DNAs. In contrast with previous biosensors based on the peroxidase activity of heme-bound split G-quadruplex probes, the use of fluorescent dyes eliminates the need for unstable sensing components (H(2)O(2), hemin, and ABTS). Our approach is direct, easy to conduct, and fully compatible with the detection of specific DNA sequences in biological fluids. Having two different types of probe was highly valuable in the context of applied studies, because Zn-DIGP was found to be compatible with samples containing both serum and urine whereas NMM was compatible with urine, but not with serum-containing samples.

Abstract
Development of an electrochemical DNA biosensor for the direct detection and discrimination of double-stranded oligonucleotide (dsDNA) corresponding to hepatitis C virus genotype 3a, without its denaturation, using a gold electrode is described. The electrochemical DNA sensor relies on the modification of the gold electrode with 6-mercapto-1-hexanol and a self-assembled monolayer of 14-mer peptide nucleic acid probe, related to the hepatitis C virus genotype 3a core/E1 region. The increase of differential pulse voltammetric responses of methylene blue, upon hybridization of the self-assembled probe with the target ds-DNA to form a triplex is the principle behind the detection and discrimination. Some hybridization experiments with non-complementary oligonucleotides were carried out to assess whether the developed DNA sensor responds selectively to the ds-DNA target. Diagnostic performance of the biosensor is described and the detection limit was found to be 1.8 x 10(-12) M in phosphate buffer solution, pH 7.0. The relative standard deviation of measurements of 100 pM of target ds-DNA performed with three independent probe-modified electrodes was 3.1%, indicating a remarkable reproducibility of the detection method.

Abstract
A highly sensitive piezoelectric HBV DNA biosensor has been developed based on the sensitive mass-transducing function of the quartz crystal microbalance and the speciality of nucleic acid hybridization reaction. HBV nucleic acid probe was immobilized onto the gold electrodes of a 9 MHz AT-cut piezoelectric quartz crystal with the polyethyleneimine adhesion, glutaraldehyde cross-linking (PEI-Glu) method or the physical adsorption method. The coated crystal with the PEI-Glu method to immobilized HBV nucleic acid probe showed the better results than the physical adsorption method with respect to sensitivity reproducibility and stability. The frequency shifts of hybridization have better linear relationship with the amount of HBV DNA, when the amount was in range 0.02-0.14 microg/ml. The crystal could be regenerated nearly five times without perceptible decrease of sensitivity.
