Talanta 2024; 276:126254. [PMID: 38759362 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126254] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2024] [Revised: 05/06/2024] [Accepted: 05/11/2024] [Indexed: 05/19/2024]
Abstract
A quantitative method for acid-base titrations in paper-based devices (PADs) is described to analyze acetic acid in vinegar samples. In this work, two different types of PADs were developed: a device for individual spot testing and a microfluidic device. Digital colorimetry was used as the detection method, and the images were acquired using a smartphone and a homemade box with LED lights for controlled image acquisition. Titration curves were built with just eight points, using the R channel based on the gradual color transition from red to blue of litmus, a natural indicator. The endpoint was accurately determined by second derivative calculations. Both systems were applied to fifteen vinegar samples of different types, and good concentration results were obtained in comparison to the reference method. The proposed methodology is simple, fast, environmentally friendly, and surpasses the need for calibration curve construction. Moreover, the subjective endpoint identification is eliminated, and the method was automated to provide a high throughput workflow, suitable for quality control processes and real-time measurements.

Abstract
Salmonella is one of the most prevalent pathogens causing foodborne diseases. In this study, a novel electrochemical immunosensor was designed for the rapid and accurate detection of Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium) in milk. Platinum nanoparticles and Co/Zn-metal-organic framework @carboxylic multiwalled carbon nanotubes in the immunosensor acted synergistically to enhance the sensing sensitivity and stability. The materials and sensors were characterised using X-ray diffractometry, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, differential pulse voltammetry, cyclic voltammetry, and other techniques. The optimised immunosensor showed a linear response for S. typhimurium concentrations in the range from 1.3 × 102 to 1.3 × 108 CFU mL-1, with a detection limit of 9.4 × 101 CFU mL-1. The assay also demonstrates good specificity, reproducibility, stability, and practical application potential, and the method can be extended to other foodborne pathogens.

Abstract
Salmonella typhimurium, a pathogenic bacterium with significant implications in medicine and the food industry, poses a substantial threat by causing foodborne illnesses such as typhoid fever. Accurate diagnosis of S. typhimurium is challenging due to its overlap symptoms with various diseases. This underscores the need for a precise and efficient diagnostic approach. In this study, we developed a biosensor using the Taguchi optimization method based on aptamer lateral flow assay (LFA) for the detection of S. typhimurium. Therefore, signal probe and nanobioprobe were designed using anti-Salmonella aptamer, conjugated with gold nanoparticles (GNPs), and used in LFA. The strategy of this test is based on a competitive format between the bacteria immobilized on the membrane and the bacteria present in the tested sample. Moreovere, the optimization of various factors affecting the aptamer LFA, including the concentration of bacteria (immobilized and into the sample) and the concentration of nanobioprop, were performed using the Taguchi test designing method. The data showed that the optimal conditions for the LFA reaction was 108 CFU/mL of immobilized bacteria and 1.5 μg/μL of nanobioprop concentration. Then, the visual detection limit of S. typhimurium was estimated as 105 CFU/mL. The reaction results were obtained within 20 min, and there were no significant cross-reactions with other food pathogens. In conclusion, the aptamer-LFA diagnostic method, optimized using the Taguchi approach, emerges as a reliable, straightforward, and accurate tool for the detection of S. typhimurium. Overall, this method can be a portable diagnostic kit for the detection and identification of bacteria.

Abstract
A colorimetric biosensor was elaboratively designed for fast, sensitive and multiplex bacterial detection on a single microfluidic chip using immune magnetic nanobeads for specific bacterial separation, immune gold@platinum palladium nanoparticles for specific bacterial labeling, a finger-actuated mixer for efficient immunoreaction and two coaxial rotatable magnetic fields for magnetic nanobead capture (outer one) and magnet-actuated valve control (inner one). First, preloaded bacteria, nanobeads and nanozymes were mixed through a finger actuator to form nanobead-bacteria-nanozyme conjugates, which were captured by the outer magnetic field. After the inner magnetic field was rotated to successively wash the conjugates and push the H2O2-TMB substrate for resuspending these conjugates, colorless TMB was catalyzed into blue TMBox products, followed by color analysis using ImageJ software for bacterial determination. This simple biosensor enabled multiplex Salmonella detection as low as 9 CFU per sample in 45 min.

Abstract
Trimethoprim (TMP), functioning as a synergistic antibacterial agent, is utilized in diagnosing and treating diseases affecting livestock and poultry. Human consumption of the medication indirectly may lead to its drug accumulation in the body and increase drug resistance due to its prolonged metabolic duration in livestock and poultry, presenting significant health hazards. Most reported immunoassay techniques, such as ELISA and immunochromatographic assay (ICA), find it challenging to achieve the dual advantages of high sensitivity, simplicity of operation, and a wide detection range. Consequently, an open droplet microchannel-based magnetosensor for immunofluorometric assay (OMM-IFA) of trimethoprim was created, featuring a gel imager to provide a signal output derived from the highly specific antibody (Ab) targeting trimethoprim. The method exhibited high sensitivity in chicken and pork samples, with LODs of 0.300 and 0.017 ng/mL, respectively, and a wide linear range, covering trimethoprim's total maximum residue limits (MRLs). Additionally, the spiked recoveries in chicken and pork specimens varied between 81.6% and 107.9%, maintaining an acceptable variation coefficient below 15%, aligning well with the findings from the ultraperformance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) technique. The developed method achieved a much wider linear range of about 5 orders of magnitude of 10-2-103 levels with grayscale signals as the output signal, which exhibited high sensitivity, excellent applicability and simple operability based on magnetic automation.

Specific separation and sensitive detection of foodborne pathogens by phage-derived bacterial-binding protein-nano magnetic beads coupled with smartphone-assisted paper sensor.

Abstract
Foodborne pathogen infection poses a significant threat to public health and is considered as one of the most serious hazards in global food safety. Herein, a sensitive and efficient method for on-site monitoring of foodborne pathogens was developed by using a smartphone-assisted paper-sensor combined with phage-derived bacterial-binding proteins-nano magnetic beads (PBPs-MBs). PBPs including tail fiber protein (TFP:gp13), cell-wall binding domain (CBD) of endolysin and tailspike protein (TSP) coated on the surface of MBs were applied for rapid separation and enrichment of targeted bacteria (Escherichia coli O157:H7, Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella typhimurium, respectively) from food samples in 20 min before detection on paper-based sensors. The paper-based sensor was loaded with the lytic agent (polymyxin B) to induce bacterial lysis and release specific endogenous enzymes. Subsequently, three distinct chromogenic substrates were hydrolyzed by their corresponding enzymes, resulting in characteristic color changes on the paper, respectively. In addition, a smartphone APP for red-green-blue (RGB) color analysis of paper was able to directly detect three foodborne pathogens. As a result, the limit of detection (LOD) values for three foodborne pathogens were found to be 2.44 × 102, 2.68 × 104 and 4.62 × 103 CFU/mL, respectively, which were much lower than other studies (106-108 CFU/mL) based on enzymes. Moreover, the feasibility of this approach was further assessed through the successful detection of targeted bacteria in real samples with satisfactory recovery rates. In conclusion, this smartphone-assisted biosensor offers promising application potential for point-of-care testing (POCT) of foodborne pathogens in resource-scarce areas.

Abstract
Sulfonephthaleins represent one of the most common and widely employed reactive dyes in analytical chemistry, thanks to their stability, low-cost, well-visible colors, reactivity and possibilities of chemical modification. Despite being first proposed in 1916, nowadays, these molecules play a fundamental role in biological and medical applications, environmental analyses, food quality monitoring and other fields, with a particular focus on low-cost and disposable devices or methods for practical applications. Since up to our knowledge, no reviews or book chapters focused explicitly on sulfonephthaleins have ever been published, in this review, we will briefly describe sulfonephthaleins history, their acid-base properties will be discussed, and the most recent applications in different fields will be presented, focusing on the last ten years literature (2014-2023). Finally, safety and environmental issues will be briefly discussed, despite being quite controversial.

Abstract
Efficient sample preparation and accurate disease diagnosis under field conditions are of great importance for the early intervention of diseases in humans, animals, and plants. However, in-field preparation of high-quality nucleic acids from various specimens for downstream analyses, such as amplification and sequencing, is challenging. Thus, developing and adapting sample lysis and nucleic acid extraction protocols suitable for portable formats have drawn significant attention. Similarly, various nucleic acid amplification techniques and detection methods have also been explored. Combining these functions in an integrated platform has resulted in emergent sample-to-answer sensing systems that allow effective disease detection and analyses outside a laboratory. Such devices have a vast potential to improve healthcare in resource-limited settings, low-cost and distributed surveillance of diseases in food and agriculture industries, environmental monitoring, and defense against biological warfare and terrorism. This paper reviews recent advances in portable sample preparation technologies and facile detection methods that have been / or could be adopted into novel sample-to-answer devices. In addition, recent developments and challenges of commercial kits and devices targeting on-site diagnosis of various plant diseases are discussed.

Abstract
A paper microfluidic device capable of conducting enzyme-linked assays is presented: a microfluidic enzyme-linked paper analytical device (μEL-PAD). The system exploits a wash-free sandwich coupling to form beads/analyte/enzyme complexes, which are subsequently added to the vertical flow device composed of wax-printed paper, waxed nitrocellulose membrane and absorbent/barrier layers. The nitrocellulose retains the bead complexes without disrupting the flow, enabling for an efficient washing step. The entrapped complexes then interact with the chromogenic substrate stored on the detection paper, generating a color change on it, quantified with an open-source smartphone software. This is a universal paper-based technology suitable for high-sensitivity quantification of many analytes, such as proteins or nucleic acids, with different enzyme-linked formats. Here, the potential of the μEL-PAD is demonstrated to detect DNA from Staphylococcus epidermidis. After generation of isothermally amplified genomic DNA from bacteria, Biotin/FITC-labeled products were analyzed with the μEL-PAD, exploiting streptavidin-coated beads and antiFITC-horseradish peroxidase. The μEL-PAD achieved a limit of detection (LOD) and quantification <10 genome copies/μL, these being at least 70- and 1000-fold lower, respectively, than a traditional lateral flow assay (LFA) exploiting immobilized streptavidin and antiFITC-gold nanoparticles. It is envisaged that the device will be a good option for low-cost, simple, quantitative, and sensitive paper-based point-of-care testing.

SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2023; 19:e2300900.

Abstract
Nanochannel-based confinement effect is a fascinating signal transduction strategy for high-performance sensing, but only size confinement is focused on while other confinement effects are unexplored. Here, a highly integrated nanochannel-electrodes chip (INEC) is created and a size/volume-dual-confinement enzyme catalysis model for rapid and sensitive bacteria detection is developed. The INEC, by directly sandwiching a nanochannel chip (60 µm in thickness) in nanoporous gold layers, creates a micro-droplet-based confinement electrochemical cell (CEC). The size confinement of nanochannel promotes the urease catalysis efficiency to generate more ions, while the volume confinement of CEC significantly enriches ions by restricting diffusion. As a result, the INEC-based dual-confinement effects benefit a synergetic enhancement of the catalytic signal. A 11-times ion-strength-based impedance response is obtained within just 1 min when compared to the relevant open system. Combining this novel nanoconfinement effects with nanofiltration of INEC, a separation/signal amplification-integrated sensing strategy is further developed for Salmonella typhimurium detection. The biosensor realizes facile, rapid (<20 min), and specific signal readout with a detection limit of 9 CFU mL-1 in culturing solution, superior to most reports. This work may create a new paradigm for studying nanoconfined processes and contribute a new signal transduction technique for trace analysis application.

Abstract
Bioaffinity nanoprobes are a type of biosensor that utilize the specific binding properties of biological molecules, such as antibodies, enzymes, and nucleic acids, for the detection of foodborne pathogens. These probes serve as nanosensors and can provide highly specific and sensitive detection of pathogens in food samples, making them an attractive option for food safety testing. The advantages of bioaffinity nanoprobes include their ability to detect low levels of pathogens, rapid analysis time, and cost-effectiveness. However, limitations include the need for specialized equipment and the potential for cross-reactivity with other biological molecules. Current research efforts focus on optimizing the performance of bioaffinity probes and expanding their application in the food industry. This article discusses relevant analytical methods, such as surface plasmon resonance (SPR) analysis, Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) measurements, circular dichroism, and flow cytometry, that are used to evaluate the efficacy of bioaffinity nanoprobes. Additionally, it discusses advances in the development and application of biosensors in monitoring foodborne pathogens.

Abstract
We report an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor for Salmonella detection based on allosteric probe as a bio-recognition element and CRISPR/Cas12a as a signal amplification strategy. In the presence of Salmonella, the structure switching occurs on allosteric probes, resulting in their hybridization with primers to trigger isothermal amplification. Salmonella is then released to initiate the next reaction cycle accompanying by generating a large amount of dsDNA, which are subsequently recognized by CRISPR-gRNA for activating the trans-cleavage activity of Cas12a. Furthermore, the activated Cas12a can indiscriminately cut the ssDNA which is bound to the electrode, enabling the release of the ECL emitter porphyrinic Zr metal - organic framework (MOF, PCN-224) and exhibiting a decreased ECL signal accordingly. The linear range is 50 CFU·mL-1-5 × 106 CFU·mL-1 and the detection limit is calculated to be 37 CFU·mL-1. This method sensitively detects Salmonella in different types of real samples, indicating it is a promising strategy for Salmonella detection.

Abstract
Rapid separation and identification of Salmonella enteritidis (S. enteritidis) in food is of great importance to prevent outbreaks of foodborne diseases. Herein, by using O and H antigens as targets, an epitope-based bio-panning strategy was applied to isolate specific nanobodies towards S. enteritidis. This method constitutes an efficient way to obtain specific antibody fragments and test pairwise nanobodies. On this basis, a double nanobody-based sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) coupled with immunomagnetic separation (IMS) was developed to rapid enrich and detect S. enteritidis in food. The detection limit of the IMS-ELISA was 3.2 × 103 CFU/mL. In addition, 1 CFU of S. enteritidis in food samples can be detected after 4-h cultivation, which was shortened by 2 h after IMS. The IMS-ELISA strategy could avoid matrix interference and shorten the enrichment culture time, which has great potential for application in monitoring bacterial contamination in food.

Abstract
A colorimetric detection method for Escherichia coli (E. coli) in water was established based on a T7 phage tail fiber protein-magnetic separation. Firstly, the tail fiber protein (TFP) was expressed and purified to specifically recognize E. coli, which was verified by using fusion protein GFP-tagged TFP (GFP-TFP) and fluorescence microscopy. Then TFP conjugated with magnetic beads were applied to capture and separate E. coli. The TFP was covalently immobilized on the surface of magnetic beads and captured E. coli as verified by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Finally, polymyxin B was used to lyse E. coli in solution and the released intracellular β-galactosidase (β-gal) could hydrolyze the colorimetric substrate chlorophenol red-β-D-galactopyranoside (CPRG), causing color change from yellow to purple. The high capture efficiencies of E. coli ranged from 88.70% to 95.65% and E. coli could be detected at a concentration of 102 CFU/mL by naked eyes. The specificity of the chromogenic substrate was evaluated using five different pathogen strains as competitors and tests with four kinds of real water samples showed recoveries of 86.00% to 92.25%. The colorimetric changes determined by visual inspection can be developed as an efficient platform for point-of-care detection of E. coli in resource-limited regions.

Abstract
Food quality and safety are important to protect consumers from foodborne illnesses. Currently, laboratory scale analysis, which takes several days to complete, is the main way to ensure the absence of pathogenic microorganisms in a wide range of food products. However, new methods such as PCR, ELISA, or even accelerated plate culture tests have been proposed for the rapid detection of pathogens. Lab-on-chip (LOC) devices and microfluidics are miniaturized devices that can enable faster, easier, and at the point of interest analysis. Nowadays, methods such as PCR are often coupled with microfluidics, providing new LOC devices that can replace or complement the standard methods by offering highly sensitive, fast, and on-site analysis. This review's objective is to present an overview of recent advances in LOCs used for the identification of the most prevalent foodborne and waterborne pathogens that put consumer health at risk. In particular, the paper is organized as follows: first, we discuss the main fabrication methods of microfluidics as well as the most popular materials used, and then we present recent literature examples for LOCs used for the detection of pathogenic bacteria found in water and other food samples. In the final section, we summarize our findings and also provide our point of view on the challenges and opportunities in the field.

Abstract
Paper-based analytical devices (PADs) offer a low-cost, user-friendly platform for rapid point-of-use testing. Without scalable fabrication methods, however, few PADs make it out of the academic laboratory and into the hands of end users. Previously, wax printing was considered an ideal PAD fabrication method, but given that wax printers are no longer commercially available, alternatives are needed. Here, we present one such alternative: the air-gap PAD. Air-gap PADs consist of hydrophilic paper test zones, separated by "air gaps" and affixed to a hydrophobic backing with double-sided adhesive. The primary appeal of this design is its compatibility with roll-to-roll equipment for large-scale manufacturing. In this study, we examine design considerations for air-gap PADs, compare the performance of wax-printed and air-gap PADs, and report on a pilot-scale roll-to-roll production run of air-gap PADs in partnership with a commercial test-strip manufacturer. Air-gap devices performed comparably to their wax-printed counterparts in Washburn flow experiments, a paper-based titration, and a 12-lane pharmaceutical screening device. Using roll-to-roll manufacturing, we produced 2700 feet of air-gap PADs for as little as $0.03 per PAD.

Abstract
To explore the superiority of multifunctional nanocomposites and realize the joint-detection of foodborne pathogens, an immersible amplification dip-stick immunoassay (DSIA) was exploited for the sensitive detection of Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhi) and Escherichia coli O157:H7 (E. coli O157:H7). Saving for the basic colorimetric performance, the reporter molecule of CoFe2O4 (CFO) possesses multivalent elements (Co2+/3+, Fe2+/3+) as well as multifunction of superior catalase-like activity and magnetic properties. By dint of the catalytic activity of CFO, a directly immersible amplification can be simply achieved to endure the DSIA with an intensive signal and a dual-visible mode for the determination of S. typhi and E. coli O157:H7. In virtue of the magnetic separation and enrichment capability of the CFO, the DSIA can perform a matrix-interference-free detection and obtain a dynamic detection range of 102-108 CFU/mL and a low assay limit of 102 CFU/mL. Moreover, the DSIA has reasonable recovery rates for contamination monitoring of two target bacteria in milk and beef samples. Our research provides a persuasive supplement for the application of multifunctional nanocomposites in the ongoing dip-stick immunoassay and an alternative strategy for the efficient detection of foodborne pathogens.

Abstract
At present, most countries or regions use commercial centrifuges for centrifugation, but this is out of reaching for limited-resource areas. To overcome this problem, a portable electric yo-yo as centrifuge was firstly proposed to obtain serum, and this device can be combined with paper-based analytical devices for enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) analysis from human whole blood. In this study, inflammatory biomarkers C-reactive protein (CRP) and serum amyloid A (SAA) were used as target biomarker to verify the performance of the proposed method. The results shows good performance and their detection limits were determined to be 580 pg/mL for CRP and 800 pg/mL for SAA, respectively. We believe this method provides a new platform of low cost and fast detection for inflammatory biomarkers in the limited-resource settings.

Abstract
The detection of pathogenic bacteria is essential to prevent and treat infections and to provide food security. Current gold-standard detection techniques, such as culture-based assays and polymerase chain reaction, are time-consuming and require centralized laboratories. Therefore, efforts have focused on developing point-of-care devices that are fast, cheap, portable and do not require specialized training. Paper-based analytical devices meet these criteria and are particularly suitable to deployment in low-resource settings. In this Review, we highlight paper-based analytical devices with substantial point-of-care applicability for bacteria detection and discuss challenges and opportunities for future development.

Abstract
Rapid and sensitive quantitative detection methods are required to monitor and detect Salmonella throughout the food supply chain and early prevention of foodborne disease outbreaks. In this study, a magnetic microbead enzyme-linked immunoassay (MELISA) based on phage receptor binding protein was developed for rapid enrichment and detection of Salmonella in complex food matrices. RBP 41 from phage T102 acted as a species-specific recognition element for Salmonella by exploiting its strong binding capacity to Salmonella surface receptors. RBP 41-MBs were prepared by coupling recombinant RBP 41 with MBs and used to separate and enrich Salmonella cells from spiked food samples. The captured complexes were further integrated with ELISA procedures by HRP-labeled anti-Salmonella antibody for rapid and accurate detection of Salmonella. The whole method took <1.5 h and the detection limit was 10 CFU/mL. Therefore, MELISA was successfully developed for the detection of Salmonella in various spiked food samples (skim milk, lettuce, and chicken breast). The ELISA reaction process of this method was carried out on magnetic beads. It simplified the process of the traditional ELISA method and reduces the reaction time. This study expanded the use of phage-associated proteins and demonstrated the promising prospects for practical applications in the detection of foodborne pathogens.

Abstract
The problem of rapidly detecting pathogens directly from clinical samples poses significant analytical challenges. Addressing this issue in relation to urinary tract infections, we propose an effective protocol and related immunomagnetic test kits enabling versatile screening for the presence of pathogenic bacteria in unprocessed urine samples. To achieve this, the components of a typical immunomagnetic separation protocol were optimized towards the sensitive assessment of the aggregates formed out of immunomagnetically tagged target pathogens collected from clinical samples. Specifically, a dedicated immunomagnetic material was developed via the functionalization of standardized, micron-sized magnetic beads with generic antibodies against gram-specific bacterial constituents with mannan binding lectin. As such, we demonstrate efficient procedures for achieving the enhanced, specific, and pathogen-mediated cluster formation of these tailored affinity-coated magnetic beads in complex samples. We further show how cluster analysis, in conjunction with the use of nonspecific, inexpensive fluorescent dye, allows for a straightforward optical assessment of the bacterial load directly from urine samples. The optimized sensing protocol and related kits provide, in less than 60 min, qualitative (positive/negative) information on the bacterial load with 85% specificity and 96% sensitivity, which is appropriate to empower clinical microscopy with a new analytic dimension. The procedure is prone to automation, can be conveniently used in clinical microbiology laboratories and, since it preserves the viability of the captured bacteria, can be interfaced with downstream analyses and antimicrobial susceptibility testing. Moreover, the study emphasizes a suite of practical validation assays that are useful for bringing the tool-box of immunomagnetic materials outside the academic laboratory and into real-life applications.

Abstract
A novel aptamer-AuNP-conjugated carboxymethyl chitosan-functionalized graphene oxide (CMC/GO@Apt-Au NP) probe was for the first time developed for the determination of Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium). Owing to the conformational change of the aptamers in the presence of S. typhimurium, the Au NPs, which were pre-adsorbed on the aptamers through van der Waals forces, were released into the solution phase and induced the color change of the solution. As a result, S. typhimurium ranging from 102 to 107 CFU/mL was successfully identified using the designed assay with a limit of detection (LOD) of 10 CFU/mL. This low detection level allowed the sensitive recognition of S. typhimurium in milk samples within 40 min without sample pretreatment, a conclusion that agreed well with the traditional plate counting method. The developed method not only provides a rapid way for the determination of S. typhimurium with simplicity and sensitivity but also shows potential universality in the quantification of other pathogenic microorganisms.

Abstract
Foodborne pathogens contamination is one of the main sources of food safety problems. Although the existing detection methods have been developed for a long time, the complexity of food samples is still the main factor affecting the detection time and sensitivity, and the rapid separation and enrichment of pathogens is still an objective to be studied. Magnetic separation strategy based on magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) is considered to be an effective tool for rapid separation and enrichment of foodborne pathogens in food. Therefore, this study comprehensively reviews the development of MNPs in the separation of foodborne pathogens over the past decade. First, various biorecognition reagents for identification of foodborne pathogens and their modifications on the surface of MNPs are introduced. Then, the factors affecting the separation of foodborne pathogens, including the size of MNPs, modification methods, separation strategies and separation forms are discussed. Finally, the application of MNPs in integrated detection methods is reviewed. Moreover, current challenges and prospects of MNPs for the analysis of foodborne pathogens are discussed. Further research should focus on the design of multifunctional MNPs, the processing of large-scale samples, the simultaneous analysis of multiple targets, and the development of all-in-one small analytical device with separation and detection.

Abstract
Conventional techniques (e.g., culture-based method) for bacterial detection typically require a central laboratory and well-trained technicians, which may take several hours or days. However, recent developments within various disciplines of science and engineering have led to a major paradigm shift in how microorganisms can be detected. The analytical sensors which are widely used for medical applications in the literature are being extended for rapid and on-site monitoring of the bacterial pathogens in food, water and the environment. Especially, within the low-resource settings such as low and middle-income countries, due to the advantages of low cost, rapidness and potential for field-testing, their use is indispensable for sustainable development of the regions. Within this context, this paper discusses analytical methods and biosensors which can be used to ensure food safety, water quality and environmental monitoring. In brief, most of our discussion is focused on various rapid sensors including biosensors and microfluidic chips. The analytical performances such as the sensitivity, specificity and usability of these sensors, as well as a brief comparison with the conventional techniques for bacteria detection, form the core part of the discussion. Furthermore, we provide a holistic viewpoint on how future research should focus on exploring the synergy of different sensing technologies by developing an integrated multiplexed, sensitive and accurate sensors that will enable rapid detection for food safety, water and environmental monitoring.

Abstract
Current point-of-care lateral flow immunoassays, such as the home pregnancy test, rely on proteins as detection units (e.g. antibodies) to sense for analytes. Glycans play a fundamental role in biological signalling and recognition events such as pathogen adhesion and hence they are promising future alternatives to antibody-based biosensing and diagnostics. Here we introduce the potential of glycans coupled to gold nanoparticles as recognition agents for lateral flow diagnostics. We first introduce the concept of lateral flow, including a case study of lateral flow use in the field compared to other diagnostic tools. We then introduce glycosylated materials, the affinity gains achieved by the cluster glycoside effect and the current use of these in aggregation based assays. Finally, the potential role of glycans in lateral flow are explained, and examples of their successful use given. Antibody-based lateral flow (immune) assays are well established, but here the emerging concept and potential of using glycans as the detection agents is reviewed.![]()

Abstract
The development of robust bioanalytical devices and biosensors for infectious pathogens is progressing well with the advent of new materials, concepts, and technology. The progress is also stepping towards developing high throughput screening technologies that can quickly identify, differentiate, and determine the concentration of harmful pathogens, facilitating the decision-making process for their elimination and therapeutic interventions in large-scale operations. Recently, much effort has been focused on upgrading these analytical devices to an intelligent technological platform by integrating them with modern communication systems, such as the internet of things (IoT) and machine learning (ML), to expand their application horizon. This review outlines the recent development and applications of bioanalytical devices and biosensors to detect pathogenic microbes in environmental samples. First, the nature of the recent outbreaks of pathogenic microbes such as foodborne, waterborne, and airborne pathogens and microbial toxins are discussed to understand the severity of the problems. Next, the discussion focuses on the detection systems chronologically, starting with the conventional methods, advanced techniques, and emerging technologies, such as biosensors and other portable devices and detection platforms for pathogens. Finally, the progress on multiplex assays, wearable devices, and integration of smartphone technologies to facilitate pathogen detection systems for wider applications are highlighted.

A cascade amplification strategy for ultrasensitive Salmonella typhimurium detection based on DNA walker coupling with CRISPR-Cas12a. J Colloid Interface Sci 2022; 625:257-263. [PMID: 35717841 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2022.06.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2022] [Revised: 06/02/2022] [Accepted: 06/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium) infection is one of leading causes of severe foodborne illness, which poses grievous threats to public health. Thus, the detection with ultra-sensitivity is highly demanded for timely prevention and diagnosis of S. typhimurium. In this study, we developed a novel detection machinery based on DNA walker and CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats)-Cas12a technologies. Mechanistically, the S. typhimurium specific sequence triggers Nt.AlwI nicking endonuclease and produces particular signaling nucleotide, which further activates Cas12a for strong fluorescence signal output. This cascade amplification strategy exhibits excellent specificity and successfully decreases the limit of detection (LOD) of DNA walker by 2,000 folds to 5 CFU/mL. Collectively, this combinatorial approach offers great promises to effectively reduce foodborne diseases by ultrasensitive detection of S. typhimurium. As a proof of concept, this innovative design also shows prominent potential in detections of other biomolecules, cells and pathogens.

A CRISPR-Cas12a-powered magnetic relaxation switching biosensor for the sensitive detection of Salmonella. Biosens Bioelectron 2022; 213:114437. [PMID: 35696867 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2022.114437] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2022] [Revised: 05/10/2022] [Accepted: 05/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Magnetic relaxation switching (MRS) biosensors are attractive in the field of food safety owing to their simplicity and high signal-to-noise ratio. But they are less in sensitivity and stability caused by the insufficient crosslinking or non-specific binding of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with targets. To address this problem, the CRISPR-Cas12a system was introduced into an MRS biosensor for the first time, to precisely control the binding of two types of MNPs with sizes of 130 nm (MNP130) and 30 nm (MNP30), for the sensitive detection of Salmonella. Delicately, the biosensor was designed based on the different magnetic properties of the two sizes of MNPs. The target Salmonella activated the collateral cleavage activity of the CRISPR-Cas12a system, which inhibited the binding of the two sizes of MNPs, resulting in an increase of unbound MNP30. After separating MNP130-MNP30 complexes and MNP130 from MNP30, the free MNP30 left in solution acted as transverse relaxation time (T2) signal reporters for Salmonella detection. Under optimized conditions, the CRISPR-MRS biosensor presented a limit of detection of 1.3 × 102 CFU mL-1 for Salmonella, which is lower than most MRS biosensor analogues. It also showed satisfactory specificity and performed well in spiked chicken meat samples. This biosensing strategy not only extends the reach of the CRISPR-Cas12a system in biosensors but also offers an alternative for pathogen detection with satisfactory sensitivity.

Abstract
Pathogenic bacteria and several biomolecules produced by cells and living organisms are common biological components posing a harmful threat to global health. Several studies have devised methods for the detection of varying pathogenic bacteria and biomolecules in different settings such as food, water, soil, among others. Some of the detection studies highlighting target pathogenic bacteria and biomolecules, mechanisms of detection, colorimetric outputs, and detection limits have been summarized in this review. In the last 2 decades, studies have harnessed various nanotechnology-based methods for the detection of pathogenic bacteria and biomolecules with much attention on functionalization techniques. This review considers the detection mechanisms, colorimetric prowess of bio-receptors and compares the reported detection efficiency for some bio-receptor functionalized nanoparticles. Some studies reported visual, rapid, and high-intensity colorimetric detection of pathogenic bacteria and biomolecules at a very low concentration of the analyte. Other studies reported slight colorimetric detection only with a large concentration of an analyte. The effectiveness of bio-receptor functionalized nanoparticles as detection component varies depending on their selectivity, specificity, and the binding interaction exhibited by nanoparticles, bio-receptor, and analytes to form a bio-sensing complex. It is however important to note that the colorimetric properties of some bio-receptor functionalized nanoparticles have shown strong and brilliant potential for real-time and visual-aided diagnostic results, not only to assess food and water quality but also for environmental monitoring of pathogenic bacteria and a wide array of biomolecules.

Abstract
Listeria monocytogenes is the third most deadly foodborne pathogen in the United States. The bacterium is found in soil and water, contaminating raw food products and the processing environment, where it can persist for an extended period. Currently, testing of food contact and non-food contact surfaces is performed using an array of sampling devices and endpoint technologies, offering various levels of sensitivity, cost, user skill, and time to detection. Paper-based microfluidic devices (µPADs) are a rapid detection platform amenable to low-cost, user-friendly, and portable diagnostics. In this study, we developed and evaluated a µPAD platform specific for the colorimetric detection of the Listeria genus following recovery from food contact and non-food contact surfaces. For detection, four colorimetric substrates specific for the detection of β-glucosidase, two broths selective for the detection of Listeria spp., and a nonselective broth were evaluated to facilitate detection of Listeria spp. The limit of detection and time to detection were determined by using pure bacterial cultures. After 8 h enrichment, L. monocytogenes (102 Colony Forming Units (CFU)/coupon) was detected on every surface. After 18 h enrichment, L. monocytogenes (102 CFU/coupon) was detected on all surfaces with all swabbing devices. This study demonstrated the ability of the µPAD-based method to detect potentially stressed cells at low levels of environmental contamination.

Abstract
Advancement of materials along with their fascinating properties play increasingly important role in facilitating the rapid progress in medicine. An excellent example is the recent development of biosensors based on nanomaterials that induce surface plasmon effect for screening biomarkers of various diseases ranging from cancer to Covid-19. The recent global pandemic re-confirmed the trend of real-time diagnosis in public health to be in point-of-care (POC) settings that can screen interested biomarkers at home, or literally anywhere else, at any time. Plasmonic biosensors, thanks to its versatile designs and extraordinary sensitivities, can be scaled into small and portable devices for POC diagnostic tools. In the meantime, efforts are being made to speed up, simplify and lower the cost of the signal readout process including converting the conventional heavy laboratory instruments into lightweight handheld devices. This article reviews the recent progress on the design of plasmonic nanomaterial-based biosensors for biomarker detection with a perspective of POC applications. After briefly introducing the plasmonic detection working mechanisms and devices, the selected highlights in the field focusing on the technology's design including nanomaterials development, structure assembly, and target applications are presented and analyzed. In parallel, discussions on the sensor's current or potential applicability in POC diagnosis are provided. Finally, challenges and opportunities in plasmonic biosensor for biomarker detection, such as the current Covid-19 pandemic and its testing using plasmonic biosensor and incorporation of machine learning algorithms are discussed.

A Novel Fluorescence Aptasensor Based on Magnetic Beads/Gold Nanoparticles/DNA-Stabilized Silver Nanoclusters for Detection of Salmonella Typhimurium. Foods 2022; 11:foods11040595.

Abstract
Salmonella Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) is a globally distributed foodborne pathogen, which can lead to outbreaks of foodborne infectious diseases. It is essential to guarantee food safety by timely and correct detection of S. Typhimurium. In this investigation, an original fluorescence aptasensor was constructed to detect S. Typhimurium rapidly and sensitively. Through the coupling of magnetic beads, aptamer, and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), a fluorescence quenching system with a "sandwich structure" was established. The aptamer acted as a link, and its specific binding to S. Typhimurium could release AuNPs from the system. Meanwhile, fluorescent DNA-stabilized silver nanoclusters (DNA-AgNCs) were synthesized. The fluorescence intensity changes caused by the fluorescence resonance energy transfer between DNA-AgNCs and AuNPs were utilized to detect S. Typhimurium. The purposed aptasensor exhibited high selectivity and sensitivity with a linear response to S. Typhimurium, ranging from 3.7 × 102 to 3.7 × 105 cfu/mL. The limit of detection (LOD) was estimated to be 98 cfu/mL within 2 h 10 min. In addition, this method showed excellent application for detection of S. Typhimurium in artificially contaminated milk, with LOD reaching 3.4 × 102 cfu/mL. Therefore, the developed fluorescence aptasensor has great potential to identify S. Typhimurium in foodstuffs.

New analytical methods using carbon-based nanomaterials for detection of Salmonella species as a major food poisoning organism in water and soil resources. CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 287:132243.

Abstract
Salmonella is one of the most prevalent causing agents of food- and water-borne illnesses, posing an ongoing public health threat. These food-poisoning bacteria contaminate the resources at different stages such as production, aggregation, processing, distribution, as well as marketing. According to the high incidence of salmonellosis, effective strategies for early-stage detection are required at the highest priority. Since traditional culture-dependent methods and polymerase chain reaction are labor-intensive and time-taking, identification of early and accurate detection of Salmonella in food and water samples can prevent significant health economic burden and lessen the costs. The immense potentiality of biosensors in diagnosis, such as simplicity in operation, the ability of multiplex analysis, high sensitivity, and specificity, have driven research in the evolution of nanotechnology, innovating newer biosensors. Carbon nanomaterials enhance the detection sensitivity of biosensors while obtaining low levels of detection limits due to their possibility to immobilize huge amounts of bioreceptor units at insignificant volume. Moreover, conjugation and functionalization of carbon nanomaterials with metallic nanoparticles or organic molecules enables surface functional groups. According to these remarkable properties, carbon nanomaterials are widely exploited in the development of novel biosensors. To be specific, carbon nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes, graphene and fullerenes function as transducers in the analyte recognition process or surface immobilizers for biomolecules. Herein the potential application of carbon nanomaterials in the development of novel Salmonella biosensors platforms is reviewed comprehensively. In addition, the current problems and critical analyses of the future perspectives of Salmonella biosensors are discussed.
