Abstract
The opportunistic human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) poses a significant threat to human health, causing sepsis, inflammation, and pneumonia, so it is crucial to devise an expeditious detection platform for the P. aeruginosa. In this work, bis (2- (3, 5- dimethylphenyl) quinoline- C2, N') (acetylacetonato) iridium (III) Ir (dmpq)2 (acac) with excellent electrochemiluminescence (ECL) and fluorescence (FL) and magnetic nanoparticles were encapsulated in silica spheres. The luminescent units exhibited equal ECL and FL properties compared with single iridium complexes, and enabled rapid separation, which was of vital significance for the establishment of biosensors with effective detection. In addition, the luminescent units were further reacted with the DNA with quenching units to obtain the signal units, and the ECL/FL dual-mode biosensor was employed with the CRISPR/Cas12a system to further improve its specific recognition ability. The ECL detection linear range of as-proposed biosensor in this work was 100 fM-10 nM with the detection limit of 73 fM (S/N = 3), and FL detection linear range was 1 pM-10 nM with the detection limit of 0.126 pM (S/N = 3). Importantly, the proposed dual-mode biosensor exhibited excellent repeatability and stability in the detection of P. aeruginosa in real samples, underscoring its potential as an alternative strategy for infection prevention and safeguarding public health and safety in the future.

Abstract
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) universally exists in all living organisms and holds a paramount role as a fundamental energy molecule in daily life. The abnormal concentration of ATP is closely related to many diseases, making the highly efficient detection of ATP very urgent. In this study, a dual-mode sensing system was developed to detect ATP sensitively and selectively via both DPV and fluorescence (FL) techniques, based on the strong interaction of ATP and Zn (II) nodes of zeolitic imidazolate framework-90 (ZIF-90). The disassembly of ZIF-90 further induced the subsequent release of pre-loaded rhodamine B (RhB). Benefitting from the robust host-guest recognition of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) towards RhB, an enzyme-free and highly specific DPV detection strategy was established with the linear detecting range of 10.0-1.0 × 108 pM and the limit of detection (LOD) as low as 0.13 pM. Meanwhile, the FL sensing mode based on RhB exhibits comparable sensing performance with the linearity range of 10.0-1.0 × 107 pM and the LOD of 0.29 pM. Furthermore, the enzyme-free ATP sensing system exhibit outstanding long-term storage stability. The two-mode sensing platform was successfully applied to detect the ATP in human serum samples with the yielded result highly agree with the results of commercial ELISA kits. This dual-mode sensing platform is inspiring and paves the road for developing high-performance biosensor, demonstrating enormous potential for vitro diagnosis and practice clinic.

Dual-ratiometric aptasensor for simultaneous detection of malathion and profenofos based on hairpin tetrahedral DNA nanostructures. Biosens Bioelectron 2023; 227:114853. [PMID: 36863194 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2022.114853] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2022] [Revised: 10/05/2022] [Accepted: 10/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
Due to the diversification and complexity of organophosphorus pesticide residues brings great challenges to the detection work. Therefore, we developed a dual-ratiometric electrochemical aptasensor that could detect malathion (MAL) and profenofos (PRO) simultaneously. In this study, metal ions, hairpin-tetrahedral DNA nanostructures (HP-TDN) and nanocomposites were used as signal tracers, sensing framework and signal amplification strategy respectively to develop the aptasensor. Thionine (Thi) labeled HP-TDN (HP-TDNThi) provided specific binding sites for assembling Pb2+ labeled MAL aptamer (Pb2+-APT1) and Cd2+ labeled PRO aptamer (Cd2+-APT2). When the target pesticides were present, Pb2+-APT1 and Cd2+-APT2 were dissociated from the hairpin complementary strand of HP-TDNThi, resulting in reduced oxidation currents of Pb2+ (IPb2+) and Cd2+ (ICd2+), respectively, while the oxidation currents of Thi (IThi) remained unchanged. Thus, IPb2+/IThi and ICd2+/IThi oxidation current ratios were used to quantify MAL and PRO, respectively. In addition, the gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) encapsulated in the zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) nanocomposites (Au@ZIF-8) greatly increased the catch of HP-TDN, thereby amplifying the detection signal. The rigid three-dimensional structure of HP-TDN could reduce the steric hindrance effect on the electrode surface, which could greatly improve the recognition efficiency of the aptasensor for the pesticide. Under the optimal conditions, the detection limits of the HP-TDN aptasensor for MAL and PRO were 4.3 pg mL-1 and 13.3 pg mL-1, respectively. Our work proposed a new approach to fabricating a high-performance aptasensor for simultaneous detection of multiple organophosphorus pesticides, opening a new avenue for the development of simultaneous detection sensors in the field of food safety and environmental monitoring.

Abstract
A novel ratiometric electrochemiluminescence (ECL) system based on gold nanostars (AuNSs) support was constructed for the determination of hypotonicity-induced ATP release from HepG2 cells. AuNS@Lu nanoprobe was used as anodic luminophore and K2S2O8 as cathodic luminophore as well as anodic co-reactant. AuNS with the large specific surface was adopted to adsorb plentiful luminol to form solid-state probe and as affinity support to immobilize ATP aptamer (Apt). The obtained nanocomposite (Apt-AuNS@Lu) generated a strong ECL signal at + 0.4 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) with co-reactant K2S2O8, because of excellent conductivity and catalytic activity of AuNS. Furthermore, graphene oxide was reduced onto indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes to facilitate the electron transfer. Following, polydopamine (PDA) film was formed via self-polymerization, improving stability and adhesion of the electrode surface. To immobilize ATP capture aptamer (AptC), abounding AuNSs were attached to RGO/PDA surface. When the sensor was incubated in the mixture solution of Apt-AuNS@Lu and target ATP, the ECL signal of Apt-AuNS@Lu increased with the increase of ATP concentration, meanwhile, the signal of K2S2O8 declined. The ratio of the two luminophores was used for the quantitative determination of ATP. The linear range was 5 to 250 nM, and the limit of detection was 1.4 nM at (3σ)/S. The method was successfully applied to analyze ATP release from HepG2 cells stimulated by 0.45% NaCl hypotonic solution. The results showed that the release kinetics profile of ATP had a sigmoidal shape with rapid release within 10 min and then slowed. Compared to the isotonic groups, the intracellular ATP concentration was 3.7 ± 0.3 µM (n = 3) decreasing by 40.3% and the extracellular was 23.4 ± 1.2 nM (n = 3) increasing by 9.2 times in the hypotonicity for 10 min, which showed ATP release from cells and good agreement with commercial ELISA test. The proposed strategy would be beneficial to broadening application of ECL technology in studying cell biological functions.

Abstract
In this work, a highly efficient electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor has been developed based on the nanosponge-hydrogel system for uric acid (UA) detection. Firstly, the nanosponge consists of PLGA nanoparticles immobilized with MoS2 QDs and urate oxidase (UAO). The remarkable loading capability of PLGA nanoparticles can load much biomolecules and QDs for the specific recognition of uric acid. Urate oxidase on the nanosponge can catalyze uric acid to generate H2 O2 in situ, which further trigger the ECL signal of MoS2 QDs. Furthermore, the biocompatible acrylamide-based hydrogel not only effectively retains the functionalities of the chimeric nanosponge-hydrogel, but also provides the structural integrity and engineering flexibility on the electrode in the ECL sensing application. Meanwhile, there are plenty of ester groups and amide bonds in the nanosponge-hydrogel structure. So, much electron can be excited due to a large number of lone electron pairs on oxygen and nitrogen atom in the ECL process. It results in 7-fold ECL enhancement of MoS2 QDs. Finally, the nanosponge-hydrogel structure-based ECL biosensor has been successfully used in actual clinical serum assays. It shows a good analytical performance for the uric acid detection (100 ~ 500 μmol/L) with a detection limit of 20 μmol/L.

Abstract
Aptamers are a particular class of functional recognition ligands with high specificity and affinity to their targets. As the candidate recognition layer of biosensors, aptamers can be used to sense biomolecules. Aptasensors, aptamer-based biosensors, have been demonstrated to be specific, sensitive, and cost-effective. Furthermore, smartphone-based devices have shown their advantages in binding to aptasensors for point-of-care testing (POCT), which offers an immediate or spontaneous responding time for biological testing. This review describes smartphone-based aptasensors to detect various targets such as metal ions, nucleic acids, proteins, and cells. Additionally, the focus is also on aptasensors-related technologies and configurations.

Abstract
Due to their good magnetic properties, excellent biocompatibility, and low price, magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) are the most commonly used magnetic nanomaterials and have been extensively explored in biomedical applications. Although magnetic IONPs can be used for a variety of applications in biomedicine, most practical applications require IONP-based platforms that can perform several tasks in parallel. Thus, appropriate engineering and integration of magnetic IONPs with different classes of organic and inorganic materials can produce multifunctional nanoplatforms that can perform several functions simultaneously, allowing their application in a broad spectrum of biomedical fields. This review article summarizes the fabrication of current composite nanoplatforms based on integration of magnetic IONPs with organic dyes, biomolecules (e.g., lipids, DNAs, aptamers, and antibodies), quantum dots, noble metal NPs, and stimuli-responsive polymers. We also highlight the recent technological advances achieved from such integrated multifunctional platforms and their potential use in biomedical applications, including dual-mode imaging for biomolecule detection, targeted drug delivery, photodynamic therapy, chemotherapy, and magnetic hyperthermia therapy.

Abstract
CRISPR-Cas12a system exhibits tremendous potential in accurate recognition and quantitation of nucleic acids and non-nucleic-acid targets thanks to the discovery of its cleavage capability toward single-stranded DNA (ssDNA). In this study, we developed an efficient electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensing platform based on CRISPR-Cas12a for the analysis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). In the presence of the target, the successful release of the DNA activator is specially recognized by Cas12a-crRNA duplex and activates the cleavage of ferrocene (Fc) labeled-ssDNA (Fc-ssDNA) modified on the cathode of bipolar electrode (BPE), resulting in a decrease of ECL intensity of [Ru(bpy)3]2+/TPrA in the anodic cell of BPE. By means of the unique combination of Cas12a with ECL technique based on BPE, it can convert the recognition of target ATP into a detectable ECL signal. The detection limit of ATP was determined to be 0.48 nM under the optimal conditions. This work will expand the application of CRISPR-Cas detection system and propose a potential method for the analysis of non-nucleic-acid targets.

Recent achievements and advances in optical and electrochemical aptasensing detection of ATP based on quantum dots. Talanta 2021; 235:122753. [PMID: 34517621 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2021.122753] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2021] [Revised: 05/07/2021] [Accepted: 07/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
The design and fabrication of high sensitive and selective biosensing platforms areessential goals to precisely recognize biomaterials in biological assays. In particular, determination of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) as the main energy currency of the cells and one of the most important biomolecules in living organisms is a pressing need in advanced biological detection. Recently, aptamer-based biosensors are introduced as a new direct strategy in which the aptamers (Apts) directly bind to the different targets and detect them on the basis of conformational changes and physical interactions. They can also be conjugated to optical and electronic probes such as quantum dot (QD) nanomaterials and provide unique QD aptasensing platforms. Currently, these Apt-based biosensors with excellent recognition features have attracted extensive attention due to the high specificity, rapid response and facile construction. Therefore, in this review article, recent achievements and advances in aptasensing detection of ATP based on different detection methods and types of QDs are discussed. In this regard, the optical and electrochemical aptasensors have been categorized based on detection methods; fluorescence (FL), electrochemiluminescence (ECL) and photoelectrochemical (PEC) and they have been also divided to two main groups based on QDs; metal-based (M-based) and carbon-based (C-based) materials. Then, their advantages and limitations have been highlighted, compared and discussed in detail.

Abstract
Well-dispersed chiral Ag2S quantum dots (Ag2S QDs) were facilely synthesized by using N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NALC) as the chiral ligand and loaded onto nanosheets of two-dimensional (2D) few-layer carbon nitride (C3N4). The resultant nanocomposite (Ag2S QDs/few-layer C3N4) shows enhanced electrochemiluminescence (ECL) while maintaining the chirality of Ag2S QDs, which can be used for the chiral discrimination of the enantiomers of tyrosine (Tyr). Due to the higher affinity of chiral Ag2S QDs toward L-Tyr than toward its enantiomer, the ECL intensity of Ag2S QDs/few-layer C3N4 is significantly decreased after its incubation with L-Tyr, and thus the Tyr enantiomers can be discriminated. The developed ECL chiral sensor exhibits high stability and reproducibility. The universality of the ECL chiral sensor for the discrimination of other chiral amino acids is also studied, and the results indicate that it can work only in the case of chiral aromatic amino acids.

Abstract
A smart electrochemiluminescent (ECL) sensor has been designed in this work. The sensing system consisted of Ag NPs-Ti3AlC2 nanosheets (Ag-TACS) as the self-luminous Faraday cage and biomimetic magnetic vesicles as the functional substrate. By engineering the structure and properties of Ti3AlC2 nanosheets to induce the Faraday-cage effect, the outer Helmholtz plane (OHP) was extended to contribute to ECL enhancement. Compared with the Faraday cage that further incorporated luminous materials, the self-luminous Faraday cage in the "direct label" model kept all the luminous materials on the OHP. Meanwhile, biomimetic magneticvesicles with highly efficient fluidity were used to improve the sensing efficiency and obtain a perfect Faraday-cage structure to enhance the ECL signals. The highest ECL enhancement (ca. 25 times) has been achieved by the synergistic effect of the Faraday cage and biomimetic magnetic vesicles. This sensing system was used to detect the wild-type K-ras gene in the colorectal tumor tissue. It provides not only an important guide for the novel ECL sensing concept but also a smart modulation system of the electromagnetic field.

Abstract
Ferrite magnetic nanoparticles (FMNPs) are gaining popularity to design biosensors for high-performance clinical diagnosis. The fusion of information shows that FMNPs based biosensors require well-tuned FMNPs as detection probes to produce large and specific biological signals with minimal non-specific binding. Nevertheless, there is a noticeable lacuna of information to solve the issues related to suitable synthesis route, particle size reduction, functionalization, sensitivity towards targeted intercellular biological tiny particles, and lower signal-to-noise ratio. Therefore it allows exploring unique characteristics of FMNPs to design a suitable sensing device for intracellular measurements and diseases detection. This review focuses on the extensively used synthesis routes, their advantages and limitations, crystalline structure, functionalization, along with recent applications of FMNPs in biosensors, taking into consideration their analytical figures of merit and range of linearity. This work also addresses the current progress, key factors for sensitivity, selectivity and productivity improvement along with the challenges, future trends and perspectives of FMNPs based biosensors.
