Anal Chim Acta 2024; 1287:342139. [PMID: 38182400 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2023.342139] [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: 06/23/2023] [Revised: 12/05/2023] [Accepted: 12/12/2023] [Indexed: 01/07/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Colorimetric biosensors have important value for antibiotic residue testing. However, many previous methods were constructed based on the optical density change of certain unstable single-colored products with poor discrimination for visual measurements. Moreover, their low extinction coefficients usually result in low sensitivity of biosensors. In addition, many conventional signal amplification strategies often involve sophisticated nanomaterial preparation, inconvenient multi-step assay manipulation and limited signal amplification ability. Therefore, the development of new colorimetric biosensing strategies with excellent visual discrimination, high sensitivity and convenient manipulation is highly desirable. RESULTS We designed a target recycling accelerated cascade DNA walking amplification mechanism to trigger a telomerase extension-related enzymatic reaction, and developed a novel colorimetric biosensing strategy for kanamycin (Kana) assay. The target recycling was induced by an exonuclease III-assisted aptamer recognition reaction, which could also trigger the successive DNA walking at the streptavidin (SA)- and magnetic bead (MB)-based tracks. This not only caused the quantitative exposure of the telomeric substrate primers on MB surfaces but also released another strand to accelerate the SA-based DNA walking. By using the telomerase extension product to link numerous alkaline phosphatases and induce the plasmonic property change of gold nanobipyramids (Au NBPs), a colorimetric signal output strategy was constructed. This method could be applied for the high-resolution visual screening of Kana, and it also showed a very low detection limit of 17.6 fg mL-1 for assaying Kana over a wide, five-order-magnitude linear range. SIGNIFICANCE The quadruple nucleic acid recycling-enhanced telomerase extension resulted in the ultrahigh sensitivity of the method and also excluded the sophisticated manipulations involved in conventional biosensing strategies. The multiple enzyme catalysis-induced plasmonic property change of Au NBPs realized the stable and multicolor visual signal transduction. Together with its low cost, simple operation, high selectivity, excellent repeatability, and reliable performances, this method exhibits great potential for use in practical applications.

Chen J, Shi G, Yan C. Portable biosensor for on-site detection of kanamycin in water samples based on CRISPR-Cas12a and an off-the-shelf glucometer. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 872:162279. [PMID: 36801336 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.162279] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2022] [Revised: 02/05/2023] [Accepted: 02/12/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
On-site and cost-effective monitoring of antibiotic residue in water samples using a ubiquitous device that is readily available to the general public is a big challenge. Herein, we developed a portable biosensor for kanamycin (KAN) detection based on a glucometer and CRISPR-Cas12a. The aptamer-KAN interactions liberate the trigger C strand, which can initiate the hairpin assembly to produce numerous double-stranded DNA. After recognition by CRISPR-Cas12a, Cas12a can cleave the magnetic bead and invertase-modified single-stranded DNA. After magnetic separation, the invertase can convert sucrose into glucose, which can be quantified by a glucometer. The linear range of the glucometer biosensor is from 1 pM to 100 nM and the detection limit is 1 pM. The biosensor also exhibited high selectivity and the nontarget antibiotics had no significant interference with KAN detection. The sensing system is robust and can work in complex samples with excellent accuracy and reliability. The recovery values were in the range of 89-107.2 % for water samples and 86-106.5 % for milk samples. The relative standard deviation (RSD) was below 5 %. With the advantages of simple operation, low cost, and easy accessibility to the public, this portable pocket-sized sensor can realize the on-site detection of antibiotic residue in resource-limited settings.

Abstract
Persistent usage of pesticides in agriculture has posed serious damage to overall ecosystem and human health, and thereby it is imperative to develop sensitive and efficient tools to evaluate residual pesticides in food and environmental setting. Herein, we reported a switchable colorimetric probe toward fipronil residue sensitized with aptamer-fueled catalytic activity of affiliative ZIF-8. Innovatively, it was found that the attached aptamer preferred to adsorb 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) rather than 2,2-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazo-line-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), greatly promoting catalytic oxidation of ZIF-8 toward TMB for further improving sensitivity. Aiding with smartphone-based image acquisition, fipronil-responsive discoloration degree was converted into the ratio of green and blue (G/B) with limit of detection as low as 0.036 μM (0.016 μg·g-1). Moreover, it allowed for fipronil analysis in water, soil and vegetable samples with good recovery between 87 % and 110 %, verifying extension application prospect of the aptamer-fueled colorimetry for on-field pesticide evaluation in food safety supervision.

Abstract
Highly sensitive and accurate detection of chloramphenicol is of paramount importance for food safety. Herein, an enzyme-modulated photothermal immunosensor that uses a self-calibrated thermal imaging system (SCTIS) as signal read-out was developed for detecting chloramphenicol. In this immunosensor, alkaline phosphatase was used as a modulator of the photothermal conversion. It could hydrolyze the substrate into ascorbic acid, thereby reducing oxidized 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine, which exhibited a near-infrared laser-driven photothermal effect. For precise temperature measurement, the SCTIS was designed by using the temperature compensation of a ceramic chip to enable real-time self-calibration of the temperature. This SCTIS-based immunosensor could detect chloramphenicol with a LOD of 9 pg/mL in 2 h, and relative standard derivations from 3.95% to 13.58%. The average recoveries in milk and egg samples ranged from 76% to 114%. This versatile sensing strategy can detect various targets by altering recognition elements, thus has wide applicability in food safety testing and monitoring.

Abstract
Based on aptamer recognition and target-mediated competitive hybridization of hairpin probes, we developed a fluorescence sensor for kanamycin (KAN) detection. The aptamer and KAN binding will open hairpin H1 to release the trigger DNA fragment, which can initiate the competitive hybridization between hairpins H2 and H3. Then, exonuclease III (Exo III) can cleave H2 and H3 to produce numerous DNA3 and DNA4. Through the synergetic hybridization among DNA1, DNA2, DNA3, and DNA4, an active Mg2+-DNAzyme can be formed. The cleavage reaction toward FAM-BHQ-modified DNA2 will produce a high fluorescence signal for KAN assay. Through Exo III-guided cleavage and Mg2+-DNAzyme-based catalysis, the sensor exhibits high sensitivity, with a detection limit of 3.1 fM. This method is robust and has been applied to the detection of KAN in milk and water samples with good accuracy and reliability. Our developed fluorescence sensor exhibits the advantages of simple operation, high sensitivity, and good robustness, which are beneficial for KAN detection in food samples.
