Luo P, Xie Y, He X, He Y, Wang X, Tan L. Application of Fenton chemistry in electrochemical determination of pyrophosphatase activity and fluoride. Talanta 2024; 274:125943.

Abstract
Fenton chemistry has aroused widespread concern due to its application in the green oxidation and mineralization of organic wastes. Inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPase) catalyzes the hydrolysis of pyrophosphate ions (PPi) and provides a thermodynamic driving force for many biosynthetic reactions. Fluoride (F-) is widely applied to fight against tooth decay and reduce cavities. The electrochemical determination of PPase activity and F- was realized based on Fenton chemistry in this work. Glassy carbon electrode modified with poly (azure A) and acetylene black (GCE/PAA-AB) was fabricated. Hydroxyl radicals (∙OH) that were generated from a Cu2+-catalyzed Fenton-type reaction could oxidize PAA in the near-neutral medium, leading to a great increase of the cathodic peak current (Ipc). A coordination reaction between PPi and Cu2+ exerted a negative effect on Fenton reaction and hindered the Ipc enhancement. Cu2+-PPi complex was decomposed due to the hydrolysis of PPi induced by PPase, which caused the reappearance of the notably increased current response. F- could effectively inhibit PPase activity. As a result, the stable Cu2+-PPi complex remained and the high Ipc suffered from the decline again. The Ipc difference was used for the highly sensitive determination of PPase activity in the content range of 0.001-20 mU mL-1 with a detection of limit (LOD) at 0.6 μU mL-1 and that of F- in the concentration range of 0.01-100 μM with a LOD at 7 nM. The proposed PPase and F- sensor displayed a good selectivity, stability and reproducibility, and a high accuracy.

Abstract
The performance of an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor was improved with a particle gradient. SiO2-coated magnetic beads were adopted as nanocarriers for gradient manipulation and immobilized with the primary antibody. Cadmium telluride quantum dots were coated with a layer of protein G for conjugation and orientation of the secondary antibody as signal labels. ECL immunosensor gradients on the electrode were formed by magnetolithography (ML) with magnetized nickel masks of column and stripe arrays. The immunosensor generally aggregated as an island on the substrate, leading to a decrease of efficiency in the characteristic signals. Stripe arrays of magnetized nickel were designed to generate cylindrical magnetic flux on the substrate to improve the particle manipulation with the gradient. Various gradients of the sandwich-structured immunosensor substantially affected the electrochemical performance. Compared to the gradient-free immunosensor, the gradient of the immunosensor generated by ML using a 3 μm stripe array mask enhanced the ECL intensity ∼2.2 times. The results of quantification of epithelial cell adhesion molecules (EpCAM) with the gradient immunosensor showed a broad linear range (15-420 pg mL-1), a low limit of detection (5.5 pg mL-1), and high reliability for EpCAM-spiked serum samples, indicating that the immunosensor gradient substantially enhances the performance of the ECL assay.

Abstract
A highly sensitive and selective sensor for the quantitative assay of inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPase) activity was developed based on a fluorescence "turn-off" strategy. Carbon quantum dots@Cu(II)-based metal-organic framework nanotubes (CQDs@Cu-MOF) with length less than 300 nm and width less than 20 nm were synthesized. CQDs in the nanotubes exhibited weak fluorescence owing to static quenching. The coordination reaction between pyrophosphate ion (PPi) and Cu(II) decomposed CQDs@Cu-MOF and led to the release of CQDs, of which the fluorescence recovered. In the presence of PPase, the hydrolysis of PPi generated phosphate ion (Pi). CQDs@Cu-MOF remained their structural stability and the fluorescence turned off. The fluorescence intensity difference of the mixture of CQDs@Cu-MOF and PPi in the absence and presence of PPase (-ΔF) was proportional to the PPase concentration from 0.1 to 5 mU mL-1 and that from 5 to 50 mU mL-1, and a limit of detection at 0.03 mU mL-1 was obtained. PPase activity in human serum was analyzed using the proposed fluorescence sensor and the recovery values were found to vary from 95.0% to 104 %.

Abstract
As isothermal, enzyme-free signal amplification strategies, hybridization chain reaction (HCR) and catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) possess the advantages such as high amplification efficiency, excellent biocompatibility, mild reactions, and easy operation. Therefore, they have been widely applied in DNA-based biosensors for detecting small molecules, nucleic acids, and proteins. In this review, we summarize the recent progress of DNA-based sensors employing typical and advanced HCR and CHA strategies, including branched HCR or CHA, localized HCR or CHA, and cascaded reactions. In addition, the bottlenecks of implementing HCR and CHA in biosensing applications are discussed, such as high background signals, lower amplification efficiency than enzyme-assisted techniques, slow kinetics, poor stability, and internalization of DNA probes in cellular applications.

Abstract
The molecular structure, luminescence behavior, and electronic energy level of an organic optoelectronic materials are important parameters for its synthesis. The electro-optical properties can be changed by modifying the structure of the molecule to make the electronic energy level adjustable. In this article, a series of organic conjugated micro-molecules are successfully synthesized by linking small compound units. This metal-free [2 + 2] click chemistry process generates donor–acceptor chromophore substances with high yield, high solubility, and adjustable energy levels, which can be widely used for sensors and nonlinear optics in different fields. A-TCNE, A-TCNQ, and A-F4-TCNQ molecules are characterized comprehensively via UV-Vis-NIR spectra, 1H NMR spectra, infrared spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry.

Abstract
The hybridization chain reaction is a very popular isothermal nucleic acid amplification technology. A single-stranded DNA initiator triggers an alternate hybridization event between two hairpins forming a double helix polymer. Due to isothermal, enzyme-free and high amplification efficiency characteristics, the HCR is often used as a signal amplification technology for various biosensing and biomedicine fields. However, as an enzyme-free self-assembly reaction, it has some inevitable shortcomings of relatively slow kinetics, low cell internalization efficiency, weak biostability of DNA probes and uncontrollable reaction in these applications. More and more researchers use this reaction system to synthesize new materials. New materials can avoid these problems skillfully by virtue of their inherent biological characteristics, molecular recognition ability, sequence programmability and biocompatibility. Here, we summarized the traditional application of the HCR in biosensing and biomedicine in recent years, and also introduced its new application in the synthesis of new materials for biosensing and biomedicine. Finally, we summarized the development and challenges of the HCR in biosensing and biomedicine in recent years. We hope to give readers some enlightenment and help.

Abstract
Herein, a label-free and immobilization-free electrochemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET) system based on graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets (GCNNs)/Ru(phen)32+ donor/acceptor pair is developed, in which the ECL-RET is regulated by regulating the diffusivity of Ru(phen)32+ molecules toward the negatively charged GCNNs through logically programmed DNA hybridization reactions. The two optical signals of GCNNs (445 nm) and Ru(phen)32+ (593 nm) show completely opposite changes through the same one-time DNA hybridization reaction. Based on this ECL-RET system, a contrary logic pair (CLP) library, a parity generator/checker system for differentiating the erroneous bits during data transmission, the parity checker to identify the even/odd natural numbers from 0 to 9, and a series of concatenated logic circuits including a six-input logic gate capable of implementing of 64 input combinations for meeting the needs of computational complexity are developed. The ECL-RET-based molecular logic system avoids the time-consuming, costly and inefficient labeling procedures and the laborious processes of immobilization, presenting great potential for building more complicated and advanced logic gates, and providing a refreshing inspiration for the construction of combinatorial logic circuits based on ECL method.

Abstract
With the continuous development of DNA nanotechnology, various spatial DNA structures and assembly techniques emerge. Hybridization chain reaction (HCR) is a typical example with exciting features and bright prospects in biosensing, which has been intensively investigated in the past decade. In this Spotlight on Applications, we summarize the assembly principles of conventional HCR and some novel forms of linear/nonlinear HCR. With advantages like great assembly kinetics, facile operation, and an enzyme-free and isothermal reaction, these strategies can be integrated with most mainstream reporters (e.g., fluorescence, electrochemistry, and colorimetry) for the ultrasensitive detection of abundant targets. Particularly, we select several representative studies to better illustrate the novel ideas and performances of HCR strategies. Theoretical and practical utilities are confirmed for a range of biosensing applications. In the end, a deep discussion is provided about the challenges and future tasks of this field.

Abstract
A class of water-soluble electrochemiluminescence (ECL) nanodots were prepared by encapsulating ECL-active iridium complexes into biocompatible horse spleen apoferritin (apoHSF) nanocages for immunoassays. The preparation feasibility was achieved based on the pH-induced disassembly/reassembly nature originated from apoHSF. Two iridium nanodots (1 and 2) with high ECL efficiency were separately prepared by directing the self-assembly of two water-insoluble luminescent complexes, Ir(ppy)3 (ppy = 2-phenylpyridine) and Ir(ppy)2(acac) (ppy = 2-phenylpyridine and acac = acetylacetonate), in the apoHSF cavity. Using tri-n-propylamine (TPrA) as a coreactant, the electrochemistry and "oxidative-reductive" ECL mechanisms for nanodots 1 and 2 were investigated, respectively. After demonstrating the spectroscopic property and relative ECL efficiency, the ECL emission of nanodots 1 and 2 quenched by TPrA• radicals at high potential was further studied and circumvented by optimizing the potential range and TPrA concentration for generating strong and stable ECL emission in aqueous media. The well-inherited biological functions of apoHSF in nanodots allow the convenient external modification of an antibody to act as a signal probe, thus a versatile ECL immunoassay paradigm was established. Acceptable results from this assay enabled the rapid and accurate detection of biomarkers in real samples. The unprecedented use of apoHSF is feasible and applicable for water-insoluble iridium complexes to fabricate a wide variety of biocompatible ECL nanodots for potential bioanalysis.

Abstract
Rapid, accurate, portable, and large-scale diagnostic technologies for the detection of severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) are crucial for controlling the coronavirus disease (COVID-19). The current standard technologies, i.e., reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction, serological assays, and computed tomography (CT) exhibit practical limitations and challenges in case of massive and rapid testing. Biosensors, particularly electrochemical conducting polymer (CP)-based biosensors, are considered as potential alternatives owing to their large advantages such as high selectivity and sensitivity, rapid detection, low cost, simplicity, flexibility, long self-life, and ease of use. Therefore, CP-based biosensors can serve as multisensors, mobile biosensors, and wearable biosensors, facilitating the development of point-of-care (POC) systems and home-use biosensors for COVID-19 detection. However, the application of these biosensors for COVID-19 entails several challenges related to their degradation, low crystallinity, charge transport properties, and weak interaction with biomarkers. To overcome these problems, this study provides scientific evidence for the potential applications of CP-based electrochemical biosensors in COVID-19 detection based on their applications for the detection of various biomarkers such as DNA/RNA, proteins, whole viruses, and antigens. We then propose promising strategies for the development of CP-based electrochemical biosensors for COVID-19 detection.

Novel electrochemical biosensor based on Exo III-assisted digestion of dsDNA polymer from hybridization chain reaction in homogeneous solution for CYFRA 21-1 DNA assay. Anal Chim Acta 2021; 1158:338413. [PMID: 33863414 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2021.338413] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2021] [Revised: 03/01/2021] [Accepted: 03/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
A novel electrochemical biosensing strategy was proposed to detect cytokeratin fragment antigen 21-1 (CYFRA 21-1) DNA based on Exo III-assisted digestion of dsDNA polymer (EADDP) from hybridization chain reaction (HCR). Primarily, the presence of target can drive a catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) reaction, which was aimed to achieve target recognition and circulation. Then the HCR can be triggered for further signal amplification and generate long dsDNA polymer with signal tags. Subsequently, the introduction of Exo III can digest the long dsDNA polymer to produce large amounts of double signal fragments (DSFs). The above experiments were all carried out in homogeneous solution. Finally, the released DSF can be captured onto the electrode directly by capture probe (CP) and a highly amplified electrochemical signal can be detected. The EADDP in homogeneous solution circumvented complex solid-liquid interface reaction and tedious operation steps on electrode. Besides, one target can be converted into abundant DSFs, which greatly improved the sensitivity. This biosensor exhibited a low detection limit (0.0348 fM) and wide linear range (5 fM ∼ 50 nM) for CYFRA 21-1 DNA biosensing with reliable specificity and stability.
