Anal Chim Acta 2024; 1309:342685. [PMID: 38772667 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2024.342685] [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: 04/13/2024] [Revised: 04/27/2024] [Accepted: 05/02/2024] [Indexed: 05/23/2024]
Abstract
The monitoring of heavy metal ions in ocean is crucial for environment protection and assessment of seawater quality. However, the detection of heavy metal ions in seawater with electrochemical sensors, especially for long-term monitoring, always faces challenges due to marine biofouling caused by the nonspecific adsorption of microbial and biomolecules. Herein, an electrochemical aptasensor, integrating both antifouling and antibacterial properties, was developed for the detection of Hg2+ in the ocean. In this electrochemical aptasensor, eco-friendly peptides with superior hydrophilicity served as anti-biofouling materials, preventing nonspecific adsorption on the sensing interface, while silver nanoparticles were employed to eliminate bacteria. Subsequently, a ferrocene-modified aptamer was employed for the specific recognition of Hg2+, leveraging the aptamer's ability to fold into a thymine-Hg2+-thymine (T-Hg2+-T) structure upon interaction, and bringing ferrocene nearer to the sensor surface, significantly amplifying the electrochemical response. The prepared electrochemical aptasensor significantly reduced the nonspecific adsorption in seawater while maintaining sensitive electrochemical response. Furthermore, the biosensor exhibited a linear response range of 0.01-100 nM with a detection limit of 2.30 pM, and realized the accurate monitoring of mercury ions in real marine environment. The research results offer new insights into the preparation of marine antifouling sensing devices, and it is expected that sensors with antifouling and antimicrobial capabilities will find broad applications in the monitoring of marine pollutants.

Abstract
The sensitivity of electrochemical (EC) sensors has been improved through the development of multiple approaches. However, the majority of EC sensors were limited in their practical application by high costs or tedious procedures. Herein, based on ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA)-Pb2+ complexation reaction, a facile and affordable immunosensor was designed. Pb2+-magnesium silicate hydrate was served as the sensing substrate. The immunorecognition process was carried out in the Eppendorf tube, and antibody-functionalized Pb2+-polydopamine was utilized as immunoprobe. In the tube, the quantitative and appropriate excess of EDTA was introduced to complex with Pb2+ on the immunoprobes. The remaining EDTA was added to the sensing substrate surface to coordinate with some Pb2+ in it. This leaded to the reduction of the EC signal of Pb2+, which was related to the antigen concentration. Using prostate-specific antigen as the model analyte, the sensitive detection was realized with a low limit of detection (30.49 fg mL-1). Remarkably, the assay results were available within 24 min, sensibly faster than the most existing EC sensors.

Abstract
Electrochemical biosensing continues to advance tirelessly, overcoming barriers that have kept it from leaving research laboratories for many years. Among them, its compromised performance in complex biological matrices due to fouling or receptor stability issues, the limitations in determining toxic and small analytes, and its use, conditioned to the commercial availability of commercial receptors and the exploration of natural molecular interactions, deserved to be highlighted. To address these challenges, in addition to the intrinsic properties of electrochemical biosensing, its coupling with biomimetic materials has played a fundamental role, among which bioinspired phage and peptide probes stand out. The versatility in design and employment of these probes has opened an unimaginable plethora of possibilities for electrochemical biosensing, improving their performance far beyond the development of highly sensitive and selective devices. The state of the art offers robust electroanalytical biotools, capable of operating in complex samples and with exciting opportunities to discover and determine targets regardless of their toxicity and size, the commercial availability of bioreceptors, and prior knowledge of molecular interactions. With all this in mind, this review offers a panoramic, novel, and updated vision of both the tremendous advances and opportunities offered by the combination of electrochemical biosensors with bioinspired phage and peptide probes and the challenges and research efforts that are envisioned in the immediate future.

Abstract
Biofouling remains a persistent challenge within the domains of biomedicine, tissue engineering, marine industry, and membrane separation processes. Multifunctional hydrogels have garnered substantial attention due to their complex three-dimensional architecture, hydrophilicity, biocompatibility, and flexibility. These hydrogels have shown notable advances across various engineering disciplines. The antifouling efficacy of hydrogels typically covers a range of strategies to mitigate or inhibit the adhesion of particulate matter, biological entities, or extraneous pollutants onto their external or internal surfaces. This review provides a comprehensive review of the antifouling properties and applications of hydrogels. We first focus on elucidating the fundamental principles for the inherent resistance of hydrogels to fouling. This is followed by a comprehensive investigation of the methods employed to enhance the antifouling properties enabled by the hydrogels' composition, network structure, conductivity, photothermal properties, release of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and incorporation of silicon and fluorine compounds. Additionally, we explore the emerging prospects of antifouling hydrogels to alleviate the severe challenges posed by surface contamination, membrane separation and wound dressings. The inclusion of detailed mechanistic insights and the judicious selection of antifouling hydrogels are geared toward identifying extant gaps that must be bridged to meet practical requisites while concurrently addressing long-term antifouling applications.

Abstract
The introduction of noble metal nanoparticles with good LSPR characteristics can greatly improve the sensitivity of SPR through resonance coupling effect. The plasma resonance response and optical properties of film coupling nanoparticle systems largely depends on the ingenious design of gap structures. Nucleic acid nanostructures have good stability, flexibility, and high biocompatibility, making them ideal materials for gap construction. 2D MOF (Cu-Tcpp) has a large conjugated surface similar to graphene, which can provide a stable substrate for the directional fixation of nucleic acid nanostructures. However, research on gap coupling plasmon based on nucleic acid nanostructures and 2D MOF is still rarely reported. By integrating the advantages of Cu-Tcpp assembled film and DNA tetrahedron immobilization, a nano gap with porous scaffold structure between the gold film and gold nanorod was build. The rigidity of DNA tetrahedron can precisely control the gap size, and its unique programmability allows us to give the coupling structure greater flexibility through the design of nucleic acid chain. The experimental results and FDTD simulation show that the film coupling nanoparticle systems constructed with DNA tetrahedrons greatly enhance the electric field strength near the chip surface and effectively improve the sensitivity of SPR. This research shows the huge potential of nucleic acid nanomaterials in the construction of SPR chip surface microstructures.

Abstract
The challenge of heavy biofouling in complex sweat environments limits the potential of electrochemical sweat sensors for noninvasive physiological assessment. In this study, a novel semi-interpenetrating hydrogel of PSBMA/PEDOT:PSS was engineered by interlacing PEDOT:PSS conductive polymer with zwitterionic PSBMA network. This versatile hydrogel served as the foundation for developing an anti-fouling wearable molecular imprinting sensor capable of sensitive and robust detection of tryptophan (Trp) in complex sweat. The incorporation of PEDOT:PSS conductive polymer into the semi-interpenetrating hydrogel introduced diverse physical crosslinks, including hydrogen bonding, electrostatic interactions, and chain entanglement. This incorporation considerably boosted the hydrogel's mechanical robustness and imparted commendable self-healing property. At the same time, the synergistic coupling between the well-balanced charge of the zwitterionic network and the high conductivity of the PEDOT:PSS polymer facilitated efficient charge transfer. The formation of the desired molecular imprinting membrane of semi-interpenetrating hydrogel was triggered by self-polymerization of dopamine (DA) in the presence of Trp. The designed biosensor demonstrated good sensitivity, selectivity and stability in detecting the target Trp. Notably, it also exhibited exceptional anti-fouling abilities, allowing for accurate Trp detection in complex real sweat samples, yielding results comparable to commercial enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA).

Abstract
Although many antibiofouling materials have been developed based on either bacterial-killing or antiadhesion effects, the integration of both the effects in one material remains challenging for achieving highly enhanced synergistic antibiofouling. In this study, we have explored a nano-CeO2-loaded double-network hydrogel by introducing CeO2 nanorods into a polyzwitterionic hydrogel via a simple one-pot method for achieving highly efficient antifouling. First, the CeO2 nanorods dispersed in the hydrogel, as an outstanding nanozyme, have highly efficient bacterial-killing performance. Second, the superhydrophilic polyzwitterionic hydrogel provides a dense hydrated layer on the surface and subsequently excellent broad-spectrum antiadhesion behavior. Most importantly, the bacterial killing and antiadhesion of this hydrogel can work synergistically to largely improve the marine-antifouling performance. Moreover, the double-network structure of this hydrogel, including the covalently cross-linked polyzwitterion hard network and the physically cross-linked poly(vinyl alcohol) soft network, can provide greatly improved mechanical properties (2.44 MPa of tensile strength reaches and 21.87 MPa of compressive strength). As a result, among the existing marine-antifouling hydrogels, the CeO2-loaded polyzwitterionic double-network hydrogel can achieve outstanding antifouling performance, which can sustain for over 6 months in a real marine environment. This work provides a promising marine-antifouling hydrogel, which will also inspire antifouling research of a new strategy and materials.
