Abstract
As one of the most instrumental components in the architecture of advanced nanomedicines, plasmonic nanostructures (mainly gold and silver nanomaterials) have been paid a lot of attention. This type of nanomaterial can absorb light photons with a specific wavelength and generate heat or excited electrons through surface resonance, which is a unique physical property. In innovative biomaterials, a significant number of theranostic (therapeutic and diagnostic) materials are produced through the conjugation of thiol-containing ingredients with gold and silver nanoparticles (Au and Ag NPs). Hence, it is essential to investigate Au/Ag-S interfaces precisely and determine the exact bonding states in the active nanobiomaterials. This study intends to provide useful insights into the interactions between Au/Ag NPs and thiol groups that exist in the structure of biomaterials. In this regard, the modeling of Au/Ag-S bonding in active biological ingredients is precisely reviewed. Then, the physiological stability of Au/Ag-based plasmonic nanobioconjugates in real physiological environments (pharmacokinetics) is discussed. Recent experimental validation and achievements of plasmonic theranostics and radiolabelled nanomaterials based on Au/Ag-S conjugation are also profoundly reviewed. This study will also help researchers working on biosensors in which plasmonic devices deal with the thiol-containing biomaterials (e.g., antibodies) inside blood serum and living cells.

Biosens Bioelectron 2024; 261:116458.

Abstract
Herein, a colorimetric-fluorescent hybrid bifunctional nanobead with Janus structure (J-cf-HBN) was synthesized via one-pot microemulsification. Oleylamine-coated AuNPs and aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) were suggested as building blocks to obtain high-performance colorimetric-fluorescent signals. The as-prepared J-cf-HBNs were used as a signal amplification probe to construct an immunochromatographic assay (J-cf-HBNs-ICA) platform for the ultrasensitive detection of staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) in milk samples. Owing to the rational spatial distribution of AuNPs and AIEgens, the J-cf-HBNs present a highly retained photoluminescence and enhanced colorimetric signals. Combined with a pair of highly affinitive anti-SEB antibodies, the J-cf-HBN-ICA platform enabled the fast naked-eye visualization and fluorescent quantitative detection of SEB in various milk matrices. Given the advantages of the dual-mode high-performance J-cf-HBNs, the proposed strip achieved a high sensitivity for SEB qualitative determination with a visual limit of detection (LOD) of 1.56 ng mL-1 and exhibited ultrasensitivity for SEB quantitative detection with a LOD of 0.09 ng mL-1, which is 139-fold lower than that of ELISA using same antibodies. In conclusion, this work provides new insights into the construction of multimode immunochromatographic methods for food safety detection in the field.

Abstract
Doping a transition metal element into plasmonic systems can tune the optical properties of the system, which will potentially facilitate the plasmon-enhanced catalytic process. In this study, we applied the linear-response time-dependent density functional theory (LR-TDDFT) method with real-time electron dynamics and mean-field Ehrenfest dynamics methods to computationally investigate the effects of doping silver nanowires on plasmon-enhanced N2 dissociation. We calculated the absorption spectra for different doped systems, applied an external electric field to the system, and performed mean-field Ehrenfest dynamics to examine how plasmonic excitation will affect the N2 activation or dissociation. In addition, we also studied how the transition metal dopant affects the system's electronic structure and potential energy surface.

Abstract
The applicability of nanomaterials has evolved in biomedical domains thanks to advances in biocompatibility strategies and the mitigation of cytotoxic effects, allowing diagnostics, imaging, and therapeutic approaches. The application of nanoparticles (NP), particularly metal nanoparticles (mNPs), such as gold (Au) and silver (Ag), includes inherent challenges related to the material characteristics, surface modification, and bioconjugation techniques. By tailoring the surface properties through appropriate coating with biocompatible molecules or functionalization with active biomolecules, researchers can reach a harmonious interaction with biological systems or samples (mostly fluids or tissues). Thus, this review highlights the mechanisms associated with the obtention of biocompatible mNP and presents a comprehensive overview of methods that facilitate safe and efficient production. Therefore, we consider this review to be a valuable resource for all researchers navigating this dynamic field.

Abstract
It is of great significance to accurately and sensitively detect oral cancer-related biomarkers (ORAOV 1) for the early diagnosis of oral cancer. Present here is a novel electrochemical biosensor based on Cu2+-doped zeolitic imidazolate frameworks and gold nanoparticle (AuNPs@ZIF-8/Cu) nanocomposites and a one-step strand displacement reaction for label-free, simple and sensitive detection of ORAOV 1 in saliva. It is worth noting that AuNPs@ZIF-8/Cu nanocomposites show large electrochemically effective surface area, good electrical conductivity and electrocatalytic activity due to the synergistic effect of metal nanoparticles (MNPs) and ZIF-8. Consequently, the newly developed electrochemical sensor displays a wide linear range of 0.1-104 pM and a low limit of detection (LOD) of 63 fM. Meanwhile, the electrochemical biosensor can distinguish single base mismatch. The relative standard deviation (RSD) of intra-assays and inter-assays is 1.46% and 1.76%, respectively, and the peak current values decline by 9.20% with a RSD value of 1.35% after being stored at 4 °C for 7 days, suggesting that the newly designed electrochemical sensor exhibits good selectivity, reproducibility and stability to detect ORAOV 1. More importantly, this novel electrochemical sensor is found to be applicable for detecting ORAOV 1 in human saliva samples with a satisfactory result. The RSD values range from 1.15% to 1.77%, and the recoveries range from 95.46% to 112.98%.

Abstract
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with localized surface plasmon resonance effect have been widely used for colorimetric detection based on the interparticle plasmon coupling during AuNPs aggregation. However, it is still challenging to develop portable and quantitative methods with good sensitivity and excellent selectivity. In this study, a smartphone-based colorimetric assay is developed on the principle of surfactant-mediated AuNPs aggregation assisted with rolling circle amplification (RCA) on magnetic beads (MBs). The detection of adenosine is demonstrated as an example. The cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) causes the negatively charged AuNPs to aggregate, which results in the color change from red to blue. When adenosine is in solution, the RCA process is triggered on the MBs because of specific adenosine-aptamer recognition, resulting in prolongation of single-stranded nucleic acid (ssDNA). The solution color remains red due to the electrostatic interaction between CTAB and ssDNA. Using this method, the limit of detection (LOD) for adenosine can be as low as 16 pM. Besides, it also works well in human serum. In addition, a portable device integrated with in-situ RGB analysis software is developed for the detection with a smartphone. This study offers a new strategy to improve the sensitivity and selectivity for the AuNPs-based colorimetric assay, taking advantages of specific aptamer recognition, in-situ RCA on MBs, magnetic separation, and smartphone-based portable device.

Abstract
This paper presents a general progressive algorithm for the computational study of electromagnetic wave scattering by a multilayered eccentric nanoparticle. The presented methodology is based on a combination of the vector addition theorem for spherical wave functions and an efficient progressive algorithm that matches the boundary conditions of every two adjacent shell layers from the outmost to the innermost layer. As a result, only a solution of small-sized matrices is required rather than solving a large set of system equations as reported in other works. With the developed approach, explicit expressions of the Mie scattering coefficients of the eccentric particle can be obtained. Moreover, the Mie coefficients of a specific inner layer could be calculated selectively, instead of having to compute those of all layers of the entire particle as required by other algorithms. The presented methodology can be used to study practically any type of spherical particle inclusions and the most widely studied cases such as scattering by solid particles, concentric particles, and inclusions with centers displaced along a straight line are just special cases of the algorithm presented. Computed results are also presented, illustrating that the eccentric structure allows extra freedom in the design of multilayered nanoparticles for optical applications.

Abstract
A high-sensitivity electrochemical sensor was fabricated via in situ growth of Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) on the surface of a polypyrrole@poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):polystyrene sulfonic acid (PPy@PEDOT:PSS) film for detecting sodium hydroxymethanesulfinate (SHF) molecules in milk and rice flour samples. The sensor fabrication process involved randomly decorating Ag seed points on the porous PPy@PEDOT:PSS film via a chemical reduction process using a AgNO3 solution. Next, AgNPs were anchored on the PPy@PEDOT:PSS film surface using an electrochemical deposition method to prepare a sensor electrode. Under optimal conditions, the sensor exhibits a good linear relation within a range of 1-130 ng/mL for real milk and rice flour samples and its limit-of-detection values were up to 0.58 and 0.29 ng/mL, respectively. Additionally, Raman spectroscopy was used to identify the byproducts of the chemical reaction, such as formaldehyde. This AgNP/PPy@PEDOT:PSS film-based electrochemical sensor offers a simple and rapid method for detecting SHF molecules in food products.

Abstract
Dissociation of the nitrogen molecule via plasmon-enhanced catalysis using noble metal nanoparticles has been investigated both experimentally and computationally in recent years. However, the mechanism of plasmon-enhanced nitrogen dissociation is still not very clear. In this work, we apply theoretical approaches to examine the dissociation of a nitrogen molecule on atomically thin Agn nanowires (n = 6, 8, 10, 12) and a Ag19+ nanorod. Ehrenfest dynamics provides information about the motion of nuclei during the dynamics process and real-time TDDFT calculations show the electronic transitions and population of electrons over the first 10 s of fs time scale. The activation and dissociation of nitrogen are typically enhanced when the electric field strength increases. However, the enhancement is not always monotonic with field strength. As the length of the Ag wire increases, nitrogen is typically easier to dissociate and thus requires lower field strengths, even though the plasmon frequency is lower. The Ag19+ nanorod leads to faster dissociation of N2 than the atomically thin nanowires. Overall, our detailed study yields insights into the mechanisms involved in plasmon-enhanced N2 dissociation, as well as provides information about factors that can be used to improve adsorbate activation.

Abstract
Rapid, sensitive, and reliable detection of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is essential for medical and diagnostic applications due to its important role as a biomarker of chronic inflammation. Here, we report a facile method for the detection of HMGB1 using carboxymethyl dextran (CM-dextran) as a bridge molecule modified on the surface of gold nanoparticles combined with a fiber optic localized surface plasmon resonance (FOLSPR) biosensor. Under optimal conditions, the results showed that the FOLSPR sensor detected HMGB1 with a wide linear range (10-10 to 10-6 g/mL), fast response (less than 10 min), and a low detection limit of 43.4 pg/mL (1.7 pM) and high correlation coefficient values (>0.9928). Furthermore, the accurate quantification and reliable validation of kinetic binding events measured by the currently working biosensors are comparable to surface plasmon resonance sensing systems, providing new insights into direct biomarker detection for clinical applications.

Abstract
We introduce here the engineering of nanobiosensors designed from gold nanorods coated with an ultrathin layer of silica (AuNR@SiO2) and biofunctionalized with antibodies for the Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance (LSPR) biosensing of proteins. Despite the outstanding properties of AuNRs, their use for LSPR biosensing is limited due to the presence of the surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) - mandatory for their synthesis - which forms a strongly-bounded and positively-charged bilayer at their surface and significantly complicates their bio-functionalization. When coated with a thin layer of silica, these nanomaterials exhibit an improved sensitivity to refractive index change which augurs for better analytical performances. Here, we undertook an in-depth investigation of the biofunctionalization of AuNR@SiO2via three different routes to design and test a label-free LSPR biosensor operating in solution. In the first route, we took advantage of the negatively charged external silica shell to immobilize anti-rabbit IgG antibody by electrostatic physisorption. In the second and third routes, the silica surface was reacted with thiol or aldehyde terminated silanes, subsequently utilized to covalently attach anti-rabbit IgG antibody to the surface. The resulting nanoprobes were characterized by a wide range of physical methods (TEM, XPS, DLS, ELS and UV-Visible spectroscopy) then tested for the biosensing of rabbit-IgG. The three nanobiosensors maintain an excellent colloidal stability after analyte recognition and exhibit extremely high analytical performances in terms of specificity and dynamic range, with an LoD down to 12 ng/mL.

Abstract
The localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) phenomenon provides a versatile property in biosensor technology. This uncommon feature was utilized to produce a homogeneous optical biosensor to detect COVID-19 by the naked-eye readout. In this work, we synthesized two types of plasmonic nanoparticles: (i) AuNPs and (ii) hexagonal core-shell nanoparticles-Au shell on AgNPs (Au@AgNPs). We report herein the development of two colorimetric biosensors employing the efficient targeting and the binding ability for three regions of the COVID-19 genome, that is, S-gene, N-gene and E-gene, at the same time. Two AuNPs and Ag@AuNPs individually coated with three different targets oligonucleotide sequence (TOs) (AuNPs-TOs-mix and Ag@AuNPs-TOs-mix) for simultaneous detection of S-gene, N-gene and E-gene of the COVID-19 virus, using the LSPR and naked-eye methods in the laboratory and biological samples. The target COVID-19 genome RNA detected using the AuNPs-TOs-mix and Ag@AuNPs-TOs-mix can achieve the same sensitivity. The detection ranges by the AuNPs-TOs-mix and Ag@AuNPs-TOs-mix are both sufficiently improved in equal amounts in comparison to any of the AuNPs-TOs and Ag@AuNPs-TOs. The sensitivity of the current COVID-19 biosensors were 94% and 96% based on the number of positive samples detected for AuNPs-TOs-mix and Ag@AuNPs-TOs-mix, respectively. Moreover, all the real-time PCR confirmed negative samples obtained the same results by the biosensor; accordingly, the specificity of this approach got to 100%. The current study reports a selective, reliable, reproducible and visual 'naked-eye' detection of COVID-19, devoid of the requirement of any sophisticated instrumental techniques.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
The existing diagnosis and treatment modalities have major limitations related to their precision and capability to understand several stages of disease development. A superior therapeutic system consists of a multifunctional approach in early diagnosis of the disease with a simultaneous progressive cure, using a precise medical approach towards complex treatment. These challenges can be addressed via nanotheranostics and explore suitable approaches to improve health care. Nanotechnology in combination with theranostics as an unconventional platform paved the way for developing novel strategies and modalities leading to diagnosis and therapy for complex disease conditions, ranging from acute to chronic levels. Among the metal nanoparticles, gold nanoparticles are being widely used for theranostics due to their inherent non-toxic nature and plasmonic properties. The unique optical and chemical properties of plasmonic metal nanoparticles along with theranostics have led to a promising era of plausible early detection of disease conditions, and they enable real-time monitoring with enhanced non-invasive or minimally invasive imaging of several ailments. This review aims to highlight the improvement and advancement brought to nanotheranostics by gold nanoparticles in the past decade. The clinical use of the metal nanoparticles in nanotheranostics is explained, along with the future perspectives on addressing the key applications related to diagnostics and therapeutics, respectively. The scope of gold nanoparticles and their realistic potential to design a sophisticated theranostic system is discussed in detail, along with their implications in clinical advancements which are the needs of the hour. The review concluded with the challenges, opportunities, and implications on translational potential of using gold nanoparticles in nanotheranostics.

Abstract
Eye drops represent 90% of all currently used ophthalmic treatments. Only 0.02% of therapeutic molecules contained in eye drops reach the eye anterior chamber despite their high concentration. The tear film efficiently protects the cornea, reducing access to the target. Thereby, the increase in the drug bioavailability and efficiency must come from the mucoadhesion optimization of the drug delivery system. The gold nanoparticles, used as a drug delivery system in this study, already showcased ultrastable and mucoadhesive properties. The goal was to study the gold nanoparticles' ability to release two specific ophthalmic drugs, flurbiprofen and ketorolac. The parameters of interest were those involving the loading conditions, the gold nanoparticles properties, and the release experimental conditions. The drug release was measured using an in vitro model based on dialysis bags coupled with UV-visible spectroscopy. Gold nanoparticles showed an ability to release different molecules, whether hydrophobic or hydrophilic, in passive or active drug release environments. Based on these preliminary results, gold nanoparticles could represent a promising drug delivery system for ketorolac and flurbiprofen when topically applied through eye drops.

Abstract
The current pandemic of the acute severe respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) killed about 6.4 million and infected more than 600 million individuals by august of 2022, and researchers worldwide are searching for fast and selective approaches for this virus detection. Colorimetric biosensors are an excellent alternative because they are sensitive, simple, fast, and low-cost for rapid detection of SARS-CoV-2 compared to standard Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) techniques. This study systematically searched and reviewed literature data related to colorimetric biosensors in detecting SARS-CoV-2 viruses, recovered from the Scopus (n = 16), Web of Science (n = 19), PubMed (n = 19), and Science Direct (n = 17) databases totalizing n = 71 articles. Data were analyzed for the type of nanomaterial, biorecognition material at the detection limit (LOD), and devices designed for diagnostics. The most applied nanomaterial were gold nanoparticles, in their original form and hybrid in quantum dots and core-shell. In addition, we show high specificity in point-of-care (POC) diagnostic devices as a faster and cheaper alternative for clinical diagnosis. Finally, the highlights of the colorimetric biosensor developed for diagnostic devices applied in swabs, surgical masks, and lateral flow immunoassays were presented.

New formula of the green synthesised Au@Ag core@shell nanoparticles using propolis extract presented high antibacterial and anticancer activity. AMB Express 2022; 12:108.

Abstract
Antimicrobial alternatives such as nanoparticles are critically required to tackle bacterial infections, especially with the emerging threat of antibiotic resistance. Therefore, this study aimed to biosynthesize Au-Ag nanoparticles using propolis as a natural reducing agent and investigate their antibacterial activity against antibiotic-resistant Staphylococcus sciuri (S. sciuri), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa), and Salmonella enterica Typhimurium (S. enterica), besides demonstrating their anticancer activity in cancer cell lines. The biosynthesized Au@AgNPs were characterized using UV-Vis spectrophotometer, Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Zeta potential, Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), Fourier Transformation Infrared (FTIR), and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Moreover, the detection of antibacterial activity was assessed through disc diffusion, the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC), time-killing curve, and detection of cell membrane integrity via SEM. As a result, the UV-Vis spectrum revealed the formation of Au@AgNPs in a single peak between 533 and 555 nm. Furthermore, FTIR analysis confirmed nanoparticles' green synthesis due to the presence of carbon functional groups. The formulated Au@AgNPs showed antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The MIC and the MBC of P. aeruginosa and S. sciuri were 31.25 µg/mL. However, nanoparticles were more effective on S. enterica with MIC of 7.5 µg/mL and MBC of 15.6 µg/mL. Furthermore, the time-killing curve of the three model bacteria with the treatment was effective at 50 µg/mL. Besides, SEM of the tested bacteria indicated unintegrated bacterial cell membranes and damage caused by Au@AgNPs. Regarding the anticancer activity, the results indicated that the biosynthesized Au@AgNPs have a cytotoxic effect on HEPG2 cell lines. In conclusion, this research revealed that the green synthesized Au@AgNPs could be effective antibacterial agents against S. sciuri, P. aeruginosa, and S. enterica and anticancer agents against HEPG2.

Abstract
In this work, a multi-parametric optical sensor based on chitosan-silica nanocomposite (CSNC) porous thin film has been developed for effective detection of glucose in pathological range. The CSNC films were surface functionalized with Glucose Oxidase enzyme via Glutaraldehyde crosslinking chains for better attachment of enzyme molecules on thin film surface. FESEM and FTIR were performed for morphological and compositional characterisation of the composite films. Five interlinked optical parameters, i.e., transmittance (T), reflectance (R), internal scattering (IS), surface scattering (SS) and output power (OP) were measured simultaneously using image processing environment for cost efficiency of the system. Effect of surface functionalization on individual parameter response was studied. It was observed that without surface functionalization only two parameters change significantly, while surface functionalization enables all five parameters. For lower and higher glucose concentration (< 17 mM and > 17 mM), IS and SS were found to be maximum sensitive among the five parameters, respectively. Maximum sensitivity of 1.2 mM-1 in IS and 1 mM-1 in SS were observed for surface functionalized samples. The sensor showed good sensitivity, selectivity and reproducibility in the dynamic range of 3-30 mM and LOD of the sensor was found to be 0.76 mM. CSNC sensors were found suitable for single-time use and as mass production is possible with little amount of composite solution (250 sensors with just 10-ml composite solution), the sensor fabrication method is very much cost efficient. Image processing-based multi-parametric sensing is a novel field itself and detailed study of surface modified CSNC glucose sensors utilizing such sensing system is a unique work having potential to significantly contribute in the field of multi-parametric label-free optical biosensor research.

Abstract
Nucleic acid biomarkers hold great potential as key indicators for the diagnosis and monitoring of diseases. Herein we design and implement bifunctional chimeric biomolecules composed of a solid-binding peptide (SBP) domain that specifically adsorbs onto solid sensor surfaces and a peptide nucleic acid (PNA) moiety that facilitates anchoring of antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) probes for the detection of nucleic acid targets. A gold-binding peptide, AuBP1, previously selected by directed evolution to specifically bind to gold, served as the basis for immobilizing nucleic acid probes onto gold substrates. Using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy and quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) analyses, we demonstrate the sequential biomolecular assembly of the heterofunctional solid-binding peptide-antisense oligomer (SBP-ASO) construct onto a sensor surface and the subsequent detection of DNA in an aqueous environment. The effect of steric hindrance on optimal probe assembly is observed, establishing that less packing density results in greater target capture efficacy. In addition, an adsorbed layer of chimeric solid-binding peptide-peptide nucleic acid (SBP-PNA) undergoes viscoelastic changes at the solid-liquid interface upon probe immobilization and DNA target capture, whereby the rigid biofunctional layer becomes more flexible. The dual nature of the chimeric construct is highly amenable to a variety of platforms allowing for both specific recognition and probe immobilization on the sensor surface, while the modular design of the solid-binding peptide-antisense oligonucleotide provides facile functionalization of a wide diversity of solid substrates.

Abstract:
Recently, there has been great progress in the field of extremely sensitive and precise detection of bioanalytes. The importance of the utilization of nanoparticles in biosensors has been recognized due to their unique properties. Specifically, nanoparticles of gold, silver, and magnetic plus graphene, quantum dots, and nanotubes of carbon are being keenly considered for utilizations within biosensors to detect nucleic acids, glucose, or pathogens (bacteria as well as a virus). Taking advantage of nanoparticles, faster and sensitive biosensors can be developed. Here we review the nanoparticles' contribution to the biosensors field and their potential applications.

Abstract
New strategies combining sensitive pathogenic bacterial detection and high antimicrobial efficacy are urgently desirable. Here, we report smart triple-functional Au-Ag-stuffed nanopancakes (AAS-NPs) exhibiting (1) controllably oxidative Ag-etching thickness for simultaneously obtaining the best surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) enhancement and high Ag-loading antibacterial drug delivery, (2) expressive Ag+-accelerated releasing capability under neutral phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) (pH ∼ 7.4) stimulus and robust antibacterial effectiveness involving sustainable Ag+ release, and (3) three-in-one features combining specific discrimination, sensitive detection, and inactivation of different pathogenic bacteria. Originally, AAS-NPs were synthesized by particle growth of the selective Ag-etched Au@Ag nanoparticles with K3[Fe(CN)6], followed by the formation of an unstable Prussian blue analogue for specifically binding with bacteria through the cyano group. Using specific bacterial "fingerprints" resulting from the introduction of dual-function 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (4-MPBA, serving as both the SERS tag and internal standard) and a SERS sandwich nanostructure that was made of bacteria/SERS tags/AAS-NPs, three bacteria (E. coli, S. aureus, and P. aeruginosa) were highly sensitively discriminated and detected, with a limit of detection of 7 CFU mL-1. Meanwhile, AAS-NPs killed 99% of 1 × 105 CFU mL-1 bacteria within 60 min under PBS (pH ∼ 7.4) pretreatment. Antibacterial activities of PBS-stimulated AAS-NPs against S. aureus, E. coli, and P. aeruginosa were extraordinarily increased by 64-fold, 72-fold, and 72-fold versus PBS-untreated AAS-NPs, respectively. The multiple functions of PBS-stimulated AAS-NPs were validated by bacterial sensing, inactivation in human blood samples, and bacterial biofilm disruption. Our work exhibits an effective strategy for simultaneous bacterial sensing and inactivation.

NANOMATERIALS 2022; 12:nano12050821. [PMID: 35269310 PMCID: PMC8912873 DOI: 10.3390/nano12050821] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2022] [Revised: 02/22/2022] [Accepted: 02/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Salmonella bacteria is a foodborne pathogen found mainly in food products causing severe symptoms in the individual, such as diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps after consuming the infected food, which can be fatal in some severe cases. Rapid and selective methods to detect Salmonella bacteria can prevent outbreaks when ingesting contaminated food. Nanobiosensors are a highly sensitive, simple, faster, and lower cost method for the rapid detection of Salmonella, an alternative to conventional enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques. This study systematically searched and analyzed literature data related to nucleic acid-based nanobiosensors (NABs) with nanomaterials to detect Salmonella in food, retrieved from three databases, published between 2010 and 2021. We extracted data and critically analyzed the effect of nanomaterial functionalized with aptamer or DNA at the limit of detection (LOD). Among the nanomaterials, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were the most used nanomaterial in studies due to their unique optical properties of the metal, followed by magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) of Fe3O4, copper nanoparticles (CuNPs), and also hybrid nanomaterials multiwalled carbon nanotubes (c-MWCNT/AuNP), QD/UCNP-MB (quantum dotes upconverting nanoparticle of magnetic beads), and cadmium telluride quantum dots (CdTe QDs@MNPs) showed excellent LOD values. The transducers used for detection also varied from electrochemical, fluorescent, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), RAMAN spectroscopy, and mainly colorimetric due to the possibility of visualizing the detection result with the naked eye. Furthermore, we show the magnetic separation system capable of detecting the target amplification of the genetic material. Finally, we present perspectives, future research, and opportunities to use point-of-care (POC) diagnostic devices as a faster and lower cost approach for detecting Salmonella in food as they prove to be viable for resource-constrained environments such as field-based or economically limited conditions.

Abstract
The reaction coordinates of a molecular photo-switch 2-(4'-diethylamino-2'-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo-[4,5-b]pyridine (DHP) was tuned with a nanoparticle and surfactant. DHP undergoes excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) and emits normal and tautomer emissions in N,N-dimethylformamide. Silver nanoparticles suppress the ESIPT and induce twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT). Further addition of surfactants alters the process. Interestingly, different surfactants cause different effects. Accordingly, the luminescence characteristics are altered. The anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) restores the ESIPT process by completely detaching the molecule from the nanoparticle. The nonionic surfactant Triton X-100 (TX-100), at lower concentration, enhances the TICT emission and the ESIPT process is also observed due to the release of some fluorophore from the nanoparticle complex. But at higher concentration the fluorophores are released completely and the ESIPT process is restored. The cationic surfactant cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB), at lower concentration, simply restores the ESIPT process by releasing the fluorophore. But at higher CTAB concentration, DHP enters the metalparticle-CTAB aggregate and shows enhanced ESIPT.

Abstract
The interest in the development of nanoscale plasmonic technologies has dramatically increased in recent years. The photonic properties of plasmonic nanopatterns can be controlled and tuned via their size, shape, or the arrangement of their constituents. In this work, we propose a 2D hybrid metallic polymeric nanostructure based on the octupolar framework with enhanced sensing property. We analyze its plasmonic features both numerically and experimentally, demonstrating the higher values of their relevant figures of merit: we estimated a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) enhancement factor of 9 × 107 and a SPR bulk sensitivity of 430 nm/RIU. In addition, our nanostructure exhibits a dual resonance in the visible and near-infrared region, enabling our system toward multispectral plasmonic analysis. Finally, we illustrate our design engineering strategy as enabled by electron beam lithography by the outstanding performance of a SERS-based biosensor that targets the Shiga toxin 2a, a clinically relevant bacterial toxin. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that a SERS fingerprint of this toxin has been evidenced.

Abstract
The development of powerful, simple and cost-effective signal amplifiers has significant implications for biological research and analysis. Hybridization chain reaction (HCR) has attracted increasing attention because of its enzyme-free, simple, and efficient amplification. In the HCR process, an initiator probe triggered a pair of metastable hairpins through a cross-opening process to propagate a chain reaction of hybridization events, yielding a long-nicked double-stranded nucleic acid structure. To achieve more noticeable signal amplification, nanomaterials, including graphene oxide, quantum dots, gold, silver, magnetic, and other nanoparticles, were integrated with HCR. Various types of colorimetric, fluorescence, plasmonic analyses or chemiluminescence optical sensing strategies incorporating nanomaterials have been developed to analyze various targets, such as nucleic acids, small biomolecules, proteins, and metal ions. This review summarized the recent advances of HCR technology pairing diverse nanomaterials in optical detection and discussed their challenges.

Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa), a ubiquitous opportunistic pathogen, can frequently cause chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cystic fibrosis and chronic wounds, and potentially lead to severe morbidity and mortality. Timely and adequate treatment of nosocomial infection in clinic depends on rapid detection and accurate identification of P. aeruginosa and its early-stage antibiotic susceptibility test. Traditional methods like plating culture, polymerase chain reaction, and enzyme-linked immune sorbent assays are time-consuming and require expensive equipment, limiting the rapid diagnostic application. Advanced sensing strategy capable of fast, sensitive and simple detection with low cost has therefore become highly desired in point of care testing (POCT) of nosocomial pathogens. Within this review, advanced detection and sensing strategies for P. aeruginosa cells along with associated quorum sensing (QS) molecules over the last ten years are discussed and summarized. Firstly, the principles of four commonly used sensing strategies including localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR), surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), electrochemistry, and fluorescence are briefly overviewed. Then, the advancement of the above sensing techniques for P. aeruginosa cells and its QS biomarkers detection are introduced, respectively. In addition, the integration with novel compatible platforms towards clinical application is highlighted in each section. Finally, the current achievements are summarized along with proposed challenges and prospects.

Abstract
The analysis of reactant at different regions of the bioreaction interface is significant for the study on the influence of interface condition on bioreaction. In this study, we proposed a localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) biosensing platform for local charge density monitoring and corresponding analytes detection based on the bio-electron transfer modulation of plasmon resonance. Core-shell nanocomposites of polyaniline coated gold nanoparticles were synthesized for the enhanced sensitivity of plasmon resonance to applied electric potential. Tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) substrates modified with the nanocomposites were used as LSPR chip for optical and electrochemical measurements simultaneously. The charge sensitivity of LSPR was verified with external electric potential modulation theoretically and experimentally. Through layer-by-layer self-assembly immobilization of glucose oxidase (GOD) on the LSPR chips, the charge transfer monitoring during the bioreaction of glucose catalysis was further demonstrated based on the bio-electron transfer modulation of LSPR. By equivalent circuit method, the charge density of the LSPR chip were detected with optical extinction peak shifts, and the limit of detection was about 0.51 μC/cm2. This bio-electron transfer modulated LSPR provides a promising approach for the detection of spatial charge densities and the evaluation of bioreaction substances at different region of single chip.

Abstract
The bulk and surface refractive index sensitivities of LSPR biosensors, consisting of coupled plasmonic nanosphere and nano-ellipsoid dimers, were investigated by simulations using the boundary element method (BEM). The enhancement factor, defined as the ratio of plasmon extinction peak shift of multi-particle and single-particle arrangements caused by changes in the refractive index of the environment, was used to quantify the effect of coupling on the increased sensitivity of the dimers. The bulk refractive index sensitivity (RIS) was obtained by changing the dielectric medium surrounding the nanoparticles, while the surface sensitivity was modeled by depositing dielectric layers on the nanoparticle in an increasing thickness. The results show that by optimizing the interparticle gaps for a given layer thickness, up to ~80% of the optical response range of the nanoparticles can be utilized by confining the plasmon field between the particles, which translates into an enhancement of ~3-4 times compared to uncoupled, single particles with the same shape and size. The results also show that in these cases, the surface sensitivity enhancement is significantly higher than the bulk RI sensitivity enhancement (e.g., 3.2 times vs. 1.8 times for nanospheres with a 70 nm diameter), and thus the sensors' response for molecular interactions is higher than their RIS would indicate. These results underline the importance of plasmonic coupling in the optimization of nanoparticle arrangements for biosensor applications. The interparticle gap should be tailored with respect to the size of the used receptor/target molecules to maximize the molecular sensitivity, and the presented methodology can effectively aid the optimization of fabrication technologies.

Abstract
A graphene oxide (GO)-based nanocarrier that imparts tumor-selective delivery of dual-drug with enhanced therapeutic index, is introduced. GO is conjugated with Au@Ag and Fe3O4 nanoparticles, which facilitates it with SERS tracking and magnetic targeting abilities, followed by the covalent binding of the anti-HER2 antibody, thus allowing it to both actively and passively target SKBR3 cells, human breast cancer cells expressed with HER2. Intracellular drug delivery behaviors are probed using SERS spectroscopy in a spatiotemporal manner, which demonstrates that nanocarriers are internalized into the lysosomes and release the drug in response to the acidic microenvironment. The nanocarriers loaded with dual-drug possess increased cancer cytotoxicity in comparison to those loaded with a single drug. Attractively, the enhanced cytotoxicity against cancer cells is achieved with relatively low concentrations of the drug, which is demonstrated to be involved in the drug adsorption status. These results may give us the new prospects to design GO-based delivery systems with rational drug dosages, thus achieving optimal therapeutic response of the multi-drug with increased tumor selectivity and reduced side effects.

Abstract
Ultra-thin flexible films have attracted wide attention because of their excellent ductility and potential versatility. In particular, the energy-harvesting films (EHFs) have become a research hotspot because of the indispensability of power source in various devices. However, the design and fabrication of such films that can capture or transform different types of energy from environments for multiple usages remains a challenge. Herein, the multifunctional flexible EHFs with effective electro-/photo-thermal abilities are proposed by successive spraying Ag microparticles and MXene suspension between on waterborne polyurethane films, supplemented by a hot-pressing. The optimal coherent film exhibits a high electrical conductivity (1.17×104 S m-1), excellent Joule heating performance (121.3 °C) at 2 V, and outstanding photo-thermal performance (66.2 °C within 70 s under 100 mW cm-1). In addition, the EHFs-based single-electrode triboelectric nanogenerators (TENG) give short-circuit transferred charge of 38.9 nC, open circuit voltage of 114.7 V, and short circuit current of 0.82 μA. More interestingly, the output voltage of TENG can be further increased via constructing the double triboelectrification layers. The comprehensive ability for harvesting various energies of the EHFs promises their potential to satisfy the corresponding requirements.

Abstract
Development of low cost biosensing using convenient and environmentally benign materials is important for wide adoption and ultimately improved healthcare and sustainable development. Immobilized antibodies are often incorporated as an essential biorecognition element in point-of-care biosensors but these proteins are costly. We present a strategy of combining convenient and low-cost surface functionalization approaches for increasing the overall binding activity of antibody functionalized natural and synthetic fibers. We demonstrate a simple one-step in situ silica NP growth protocol for increasing the surface area available for functionalization on cotton and polyester fabrics as well as on nanoporous cellulose substrates. Comparing this effect with the widely adopted and low cost plant-based polyphenol coating to enhance antibody immobilization, we find that both approaches can similarly increase overall surface activity, and we illustrate conditions under which the two approaches can produce an additive effect. Furthermore, we introduce co-immobilization of antibodies with a sacrificial “steric helper” protein for further enhancing surface activities. In combination, several hundred percent higher activities compared to physical adsorption can be achieved while maintaining a low amount of antibodies used, thus paving a practical path towards low cost biosensing. Cotton, nanoporous cellulose and polyester fabric surfaces are functionalized with combinations of in situ grown silica NPs, polyphenol coating, and protein co-immobilization to enhance surface area, antibody binding efficiency, and biosensing.![]()

Abstract
Colorimetric analysis has become of great importance in recent years to improve the operationalization of plasmonic-based biosensors. The unique properties of nanomaterials have enabled the development of a variety of plasmonics applications on the basis of the colorimetric sensing provided by metal nanoparticles. In particular, the extinction of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) in the visible range has permitted the exploitation of LSPR colorimetric-based biosensors as powerful tools for clinical diagnostics and drug monitoring. This review summarizes recent progress in the biochemical monitoring of clinical biomarkers by ultrasensitive plasmonic colorimetric strategies according to the distance- or the morphology/size-dependent sensing modes. The potential of colorimetric nanosensors as point of care devices from the perspective of naked-eye detection is comprehensively discussed for a broad range of analytes including pharmaceuticals, proteins, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, bacteria, and viruses such as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The practical suitability of plasmonic-based colorimetric assays for the rapid visual readout in biological samples, considering current challenges and future perspectives, is also reviewed.

Nanostructured and Spiky Gold Shell Growth on Magnetic Particles for SERS Applications. NANOMATERIALS 2020; 10:nano10112136.

Abstract
Multifunctional micro- and nanoparticles have potential uses in advanced detection methods, such as the combined separation and detection of biomolecules. Combining multiple tasks is possible but requires the specific tailoring of these particles during synthesis or further functionalization. Here, we synthesized nanostructured gold shells on magnetic particle cores and demonstrated the use of them in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). To grow the gold shells, gold seeds were bound to silica-coated iron oxide aggregate particles. We explored different functional groups on the surface to achieve different interactions with gold seeds. Then, we used an aqueous cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)-based strategy to grow the seeds into spikes. We investigated the influence of the surface chemistry on seed attachment and on further growth of spikes. We also explored different experimental conditions to achieve either spiky or bumpy plasmonic structures on the particles. We demonstrated that the particles showed SERS enhancement of a model Raman probe molecule, 2-mercaptopyrimidine, on the order of 104. We also investigated the impact of gold shell morphology—spiky or bumpy—on SERS enhancements and on particle stability over time. We found that spiky shells lead to greater enhancements, however their high aspect ratio structures are less stable and morphological changes occur more quickly than observed with bumpy shells.

Abstract
Nanoparticles made of coinage metals are well known to display unique optical properties stemming from the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) phenomenon, allowing their use as transducers in various biosensing configurations. While most of the reports initially dealt with spherical gold nanoparticles owing to their ease of synthesis, the interest in gold nanorods (AuNR) as plasmonic biosensors is rising steadily. These anisotropic nanoparticles exhibit, on top of the LSPR band in the blue range common with spherical nanoparticles, a longitudinal LSPR band, in all respects superior, and in particular in terms of sensitivity to the surrounding media and LSPR-biosensing. However, AuNRs synthesis and their further functionalization are less straightforward and require thorough processing. In this paper, we intend to give an up-to-date overview of gold nanorods in LSPR biosensing, starting from a critical review of the recent findings on AuNR synthesis and the main challenges related to it. We further highlight the various strategies set up to coat AuNR with a silica shell of controlled thickness and porosity compatible with LSPR-biosensing. Then, we provide a survey of the methods employed to attach various bioreceptors to AuNR. Finally, the most representative examples of AuNR-based LSPR biosensors are reviewed with a focus put on their analytical performances.

A Critical Factor for Quantifying Proteins in Unmodified Gold Nanoparticles-Based Aptasensing: The Effect of pH. CHEMOSENSORS 2020.

Abstract
Unmodified gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)-based aptasensing (uGA) assay has been widely implemented in the determination of many different targets, but there are few reports on protein detection using uGA. Here, we designed a uGA assay for protein detection including the elimination of interfering proteins. Positively charged protein can be absorbed directly on the surface of AuNPs to form “protein corona”, which results in the aggregation of AuNPs even without salt addition, thereby preventing target protein detection. To overcome this problem, we systematically investigated the effect of modifying the pH of the solution during the uGA assay. A probe solution with a pH slightly higher than the isoelectric points (pI) of the target protein was optimal for protein detection in the uGA assay, allowing the aptamer to selectively detect the target protein. Three proteins (beta-lactoglobulin, lactoferrin, and lysozyme) with different pI were chosen as model proteins to validate our method. Positively charged interfering proteins (with pIs higher than the optimal pH) were removed by centrifugation of protein corona/AuNPs aggregates before the implementation of actual sample detection. Most importantly, the limit of detection (LOD) for all three model proteins was comparable to that of other methods, indicating the significance of modulating the pH. Moreover, choosing a suitable pH for a particular target protein was validated as a universal method, which is significant for developing a novel, simple, cost-effective uGA assay for protein detection.

Abstract
Standard detection methods for nucleic acids, an important class of diagnostic biomarkers, are often laborious and cumbersome. In need for development of facile methodologies, localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) assays have been widely explored for both spectroscopic and visual detection of nucleic acids. Our sensing approach is based on monitoring changes in the LSPR band due to interaction between peptide nucleic acid (PNA) and plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) in the presence/absence of target nucleic acid. We have investigated the importance of tuning the stoichiometry of PNA to NPs to enable "naked-eye" detection of nucleic acids at clinically relevant concentration ranges. Assaying in plasma is achieved by incorporation of silver in gold NPs (AuNPs) via an alloying process. The synthesized gold/silver alloy NPs reduce nonspecific adsorption of proteinaceous interferents in plasma. Furthermore, the gold/silver alloy NPs absorb in the most sensitive cyan to green transition zone (∼500 nm) yielding highly competitive visual limits of detection (LODs). The visual LOD (calculated objectively using the ΔE algorithm) for a model microRNA (mir21) using a productive combination of stoichiometric tuning of the PNA to NP ratio and compositional tuning of the NPs in buffer and plasma extract equals 200 pM (∼250 times lower than existing reports) and 3 nM, respectively. We envision that the proposed LSPR assay based on Au0.8Ag0.2NPs offers an avenue for rapid and sensitive on-site detection of nucleic acids in complex matrixes in combination with efficient target extraction kits.

Abstract
Nanomaterials are playing an increasingly important role in cancer diagnosis and treatment. Nanoparticle (NP)-based technologies have been utilized for targeted drug delivery during chemotherapies, photodynamic therapy, and immunotherapy. Another active area of research is the toxicity studies of these nanomaterials to understand the cellular uptake and transport of these materials in cells, tissues, and environment. Traditional techniques such as transmission electron microscopy, and mass spectrometry to analyze NP-based cellular transport or toxicity effect are expensive, require extensive sample preparation, and are low-throughput. Dark-field hyperspectral imaging (DF-HSI), an integration of spectroscopy and microscopy/imaging, provides the ability to investigate cellular transport of these NPs and to quantify the distribution of them within bio-materials. DF-HSI also offers versatility in non-invasively monitoring microorganisms, single cell, and proteins. DF-HSI is a low-cost, label-free technique that is minimally invasive and is a viable choice for obtaining high-throughput quantitative molecular analyses. Multimodal imaging modalities such as Fourier transform infrared and Raman spectroscopy are also being integrated with HSI systems to enable chemical imaging of the samples. HSI technology is being applied in surgeries to obtain molecular information about the tissues in real-time. This article provides brief overview of fundamental principles of DF-HSI and its application for nanomaterials, protein-detection, single-cell analysis, microbiology, surgical procedures along with technical challenges and future integrative approach with other imaging and measurement modalities. This article is categorized under: Diagnostic Tools > in vitro Nanoparticle-Based Sensing Diagnostic Tools > in vivo Nanodiagnostics and Imaging Implantable Materials and Surgical Technologies > Nanoscale Tools and Techniques in Surgery.

Abstract
Background Polyphenols possess antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties and have been used in the treatment of skin wounds and burns. We previously showed that tannic acid-modified AgNPs sized >26 nm promote wound healing, while tannic acid-modified AgNPs sized 13 nm can elicit strong local inflammatory response. In this study, we tested bimetallic Au@AgNPs sized 30 nm modified with selected flavonoid and non-flavonoid compounds for wound healing applications. Methods Bimetallic Au@AgNPs were obtained by growing an Ag layer on AuNPs and further modified with selected polyphenols. After toxicity tests and in vitro scratch assay in HaCaT cells, modified lymph node assay as well as the mouse splint wound model were further used to access the wound healing potential of selected non-toxic modifications. Results Tannic acid, gallic acid, polydatin, resveratrol, catechin, epicatechin, epigallocatechin, epicatechin gallate, epigallocatechin gallate and procyanidin B2 used to modify Au@AgNPs exhibited good toxicological profiles in HaCaT cells. Au@AgNPs modified with 15 μM tannic acid, 200 μM resveratrol, 200 μM epicatechin gallate, 1000 μM gallic acid and 200 μM procyanidin B2 induced wound healing in vivo and did not lead to the local irritation or inflammation. Tannic acid-modified Au@AgNPs induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) - like re-epithelialization, while other polyphenol modifications of Au@AgNPs acted through proliferation and wound closure. Conclusion Bimetallic Au@AgNPs can be used as a basis for modification with selected polyphenols for topical uses. In addition, we have demonstrated that particular polyphenols used to modify bimetallic nanoparticles may show different effects upon different stages of wound healing.

Abstract
For the early diagnosis of several diseases, various biomarkers have been discovered and utilized through the measurement of concentrations in body fluids such as blood, urine, and saliva. The most representative analytical method for biomarker detection is an immunosensor, which exploits the specific antigen-antibody immunoreaction. Among diverse analytical methods, surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based immunosensors are emerging as a potential detection platform due to high sensitivity, selectivity, and intuitive features. Particularly, SPR-based immunosensors could detect biomarkers without labeling of a specific detection probe, as typical immunosensors such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) use enzymes like horseradish peroxidase (HRP). In this review, SPR-based immunosensors utilizing noble metals such as Au and Ag as SPR-inducing factors for the measurement of different types of protein biomarkers, including viruses, microbes, and extracellular vesicles (EV), are briefly introduced.
