Abstract
For the first time, a nanobiosensor was established for Sorghum mosaic virus (SrMV) detection. The biosensor consists of cadmium telluride quantum dots (CdTe QDs) conjugated to the specific antibody (Ab) against SrMV coat protein (CP) and carbon quantum dots (C QDs) labeled with SrMV coat protein. The formation of the fluorophore-quencher immunocomplex CdTe QDs-Ab+C QDs-CP led to a distinct decrease in the fluorescence intensity of CdTe QDs. Conversely, the emission intensity of CdTe QDs recovered upon the introduction of unlabeled CP. The developed biosensor showed a limit of detection of 44 nM in a linear range of 0.10-0.54 μM and exhibited the strongest fluorescence intensity (about 47,000 a.u.) at 552 nm. This strategy was applied to detect purified CP in plant sap successfully with a recovery rate between 93-103%. Moreover, the feasibility of the proposed method was further verified by the detection of field samples, and the results were consistent with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Contrarily to ELISA, the proposed biosensor did not require excessive washing and incubation steps, thus the detection could be rapidly accomplished in a few minutes. The high sensitivity and short assay time of this designed biosensor demonstrated its potential application in situ and rapid detection. In addition, the fluorescence quenching of CdTe QDs was attributed to dynamic quenching according to the Stern-Volmer equation.

Abstract
Plant science is a major research topic addressing some of the most important global challenges we face today, including energy and food security. Plant science has a role in the production of staple foods and materials, as well as roles in genetics research, environmental management, and the synthesis of high-value compounds such as pharmaceuticals or raw materials for energy production. Nanosensors—selective transducers with a characteristic dimension that is nanometre in scale—have emerged as important tools for monitoring biological processes such as plant signalling pathways and metabolism in ways that are non-destructive, minimally invasive, and capable of real-time analysis. A variety of nanosensors have been used to study different biological processes; for example, optical nanosensors based on Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) have been used to study protein interactions, cell contents, and biophysical parameters, and electrochemical nanosensors have been used to detect redox reactions in plants. Nanosensor applications in plants include nutrient determination, disease assessment, and the detection of proteins, hormones, and other biological substances. The combination of nanosensor technology and plant sciences has the potential to be a powerful alliance and could support the successful delivery of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. However, a lack of knowledge regarding the health effects of nanomaterials and the high costs of some of the raw materials required has lessened their commercial impact.

Abstract
The spread of viral diseases has caused global concern in recent years. Detecting viral infections has become challenging in medical research due to their high infectivity and mutation. A rapid and accurate detection method in biomedical and healthcare segments is essential for the effective treatment of pathogenic viruses and early detection of these viruses. Biosensors are used worldwide to detect viral infections associated with the molecular detection of biomarkers. Thus, detecting viruses based on quantum dots biomarkers is inexpensive and has great potential. To detect the ultrasensitive biomarkers of viral infections, QDs appear to be a promising option as biological probes, while physiological components have been used directly to detect multiple biomarkers simultaneously. The simultaneous measurement of numerous clinical parameters of the same sample volume is possible through multiplex detection of human viral infections, which reduces the time and cost required to record any data point. The purpose of this paper is to review recent studies on the effectiveness of the quantum dot as a detection tool for human pandemic viruses. In this review study, different types of quantum dots and their valuable properties in the structure of biomarkers were investigated. Finally, a vision for recent advances in quantum dot-based biomarkers was presented, whereby they can be integrated into super-sensitive probes for the multiplex detection of human viral infections.

Abstract
Infectious plant diseases are caused by pathogenic microorganisms, such as fungi, oomycetes, bacteria, viruses, phytoplasma, and nematodes. Plant diseases have a significant effect on the plant quality and yield and they can destroy the entire plant if they are not controlled in time. To minimize disease-related losses, it is essential to identify and control pathogens in the early stages. Plant disease control is thus a fundamental challenge both for global food security and sustainable agriculture. Conventional methods for plant diseases control have given place to electronic control (E-monitoring) due to their lack of portability, being time consuming, need for a specialized user, etc. E-monitoring using electronic nose (e-nose), biosensors, wearable sensors, and 'electronic eyes' has attracted increasing attention in recent years. Detection, identification, and quantification of pathogens based on electronic sensors (E-sensors) are both convenient and practical and may be used in combination with conventional methods. This paper discusses recent advances made in E-sensors as component parts in combination with wearable sensors, in electronic sensing systems to control and detect viruses, bacteria, pathogens and fungi. In addition, future challenges using sensors to manage plant diseases are investigated.

Abstract
Regarding the outbreak of the SARS Cov-2 virus pandemic worldwide, it seems necessary to provide new diagnostic methods to combat the virus. A fluorescence CdTe quantum dots-DNA (QDs-DNA) nanosensor was prepared for efficient detection of a specific target complementary DNA or RNA from the SARS Cov-2 virus using FRET experiment via forming a classic "sandwich" structure. The sequence of the complementary DNA (target DNA) is planned based on a substantial part of the SARS Cov-2 virus genome, and oligonucleotides of QDs-DNA nanoprobe are designed to complement it. The water-soluble CdTe QDs-DNA was prepared by replacing the thioglycolic acid (TGA) on the surface of QDs with capture DNA (thiolated DNA) through a ligand-exchange method. Subsequently, with the addition of complementary (target DNA) and quencher DNA (BHQ2-labeled DNA) into the QDs-DNA conjugates, sandwiched hybrids were formed. The resulting assembly brings the BHQ2-labeled DNA (as the acceptor), and the QDs (as the donor) into proximity, leading to quenching of fluorescence emission from the donor QDs through the FRET mechanism. In other words, a simple, highly sensitive, selective, and rapid approach was introduced to detect complementary DNA sequence from a specific part of the SARS Cov-2 virus genome with a detection limit of 2.52 × 10-9 mol L-1. Furthermore, the planned nanosensor was well used for the detection of RNA from SARS Cov-2 viruses in real samples with satisfactory analytical results, and the outcomes were compared with RT-PCR (Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction) as the well-known standard method.

Abstract
The recent pandemic of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has caused huge worldwide disruption due to the lack of available testing locations and equipment. The use of optical techniques for viral detection has flourished in the past 15 years, providing more reliable, inexpensive, and accurate detection methods. In the current minireview, optical phenomena including fluorescence, surface plasmons, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and colorimetry are discussed in the context of detecting virus pathogens. The sensitivity of a viral detection method can be dramatically improved by using materials that exhibit surface plasmons or SERS, but often this requires advanced instrumentation for detection. Although fluorescence and colorimetry lack high sensitivity, they show promise as point-of-care diagnostics because of their relatively less complicated instrumentation, ease of use, lower costs, and the fact that they do not require nucleic acid amplification. The advantages and disadvantages of each optical detection method are presented, and prospects for applying optical biosensors in COVID-19 detection are discussed.

Abstract
After the first case has appeared in China, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to pose an omnipresent threat to global health, affecting more than 70 million patients and leading to around 1.6 million deaths. To implement rapid and effective clinical management, early diagnosis is the mainstay. Today, real-time reverse transcriptase (RT)-PCR test is the major diagnostic practice as a gold standard method for accurate diagnosis of this disease. On the other side, serological assays are easy to be implemented for the disease screening. Considering the limitations of today's tests including lengthy assay time, cost, the need for skilled personnel, and specialized infrastructure, both strategies, however, have impediments to be applied to the resource-scarce settings. Therefore, there is an urgent need to democratize all these practices to be applicable across the globe, specifically to the locations comprising of very limited infrastructure. In this regard, sensor systems have been utilized in clinical diagnostics largely, holding great potential to have pivotal roles as an alternative or complementary options to these current tests, providing crucial fashions such as being suitable for point-of-care settings, cost-effective, and having short turnover time. In particular, the integration of smart materials into sensor technologies leverages their analytical performances, including sensitivity, linear dynamic range, and specificity. Herein, we comprehensively review major smart materials such as nanomaterials, photosensitive materials, electrically sensitive materials, their integration with sensor platforms, and applications as wearable tools within the scope of the COVID-19 diagnosis.

Abstract
Crop diseases caused by pathogenic microorganisms pose severe threats to the global food supply. Effective diagnostic tools for timely determination of plant diseases become essential to the assurance of agricultural sustainability and global food security. Nucleic acid- and antibody-based molecular assays are gold-standard methodologies for the diagnosis of plant diseases, but the analyzing procedures are complex and laborious. The prominent physical or chemical properties of nanomaterials have enabled their use as innovative and high-performance diagnostic tools for numerous plant pathogens and other important disease biomarkers. Engineered nanomaterials have been incorporated into traditional laboratory molecular assays or sequencing technologies that offer notable enhancement in sensitivity and selectivity. Meanwhile, nanostructure-supported noninvasive detection tools combined with portable imaging devices (e.g., smartphones) have paved the way for fast and on-site diagnosis of plant diseases and long-term monitoring of plant health conditions, especially in resource-poor settings.

Abstract
Although antibodies remain a primary recognition element in all forms of biosensing, functional limitations arising from their size, stability, and structure have motivated the development and production of many different artificial scaffold proteins for biological recognition. However, implementing such artificial binders into functional high-performance biosensors remains a challenging task. Here, we present the design and application of Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) nanoprobes comprising small artificial proteins (αRep bidomains) labeled with a Tb complex (Tb) donor on the C-terminus and a semiconductor quantum dot (QD) acceptor on the N-terminus. Specific binding of one or two protein targets to the αReps induced a conformational change that could be detected by time-resolved Tb-to-QD FRET. These single-probe FRET switches were used in a separation-free solution-phase assay to quantify different protein targets at sub-nanomolar concentrations and to measure the conformational changes with sub-nanometer resolution. Probing ligand-receptor binding under physiological conditions at very low concentrations in solution is a special feature of FRET that can be efficiently combined with other structural characterization methods to develop, understand, and optimize artificial biosensors. Our results suggest that the αRep FRET nanoprobes have a strong potential for their application in advanced diagnostics and intracellular live-cell imaging of ligand-receptor interactions.

Abstract
Infectious diseases commonly occur in contaminated water, food, and bodily fluids and spread rapidly, resulting in death of humans and animals worldwide. Among infectious agents, viruses pose a serious threat to public health and global economy because they are often difficult to detect and their infections are hard to treat. Since it is crucial to develop rapid, accurate, cost-effective, and in-situ methods for early detection viruses, a variety of sensors have been reported so far. This review provides an overview of the recent developments in electrochemical sensors and biosensors for detecting viruses and use of these sensors on environmental, clinical and food monitoring. Electrochemical biosensors for determining viruses are divided into four main groups including nucleic acid-based, antibody-based, aptamer-based and antigen-based electrochemical biosensors. Finally, the drawbacks and advantages of each type of sensors are identified and discussed.

Abstract
Tristeza is a disease that affects citrus crops in general, caused by the Citrus tristeza virus (CTV). It is considered an economically important virus diseases in citrus, which is present in the main citrus producing regions all around the world. Early detection of CTV is crucial to avoid any epidemics and substantial economic losses for the citrus growers. Consequently, the development of rapid, accurate, and sensitive methods capable of detecting the virus in the early stages of the disease is highly desired. Based on that, a low-cost and rapid magneto-immunoassay methodology to detect the capsid protein from CTV (CP-CTV) was proposed. For this, magnetic beads were decorated with antibodies anti-CP-CTV and horseradish peroxidase enzyme (HRP) and applied for the capture and separation of CP-CTV from the sample solutions. The magnetically captured biomarker was detected using a simple disposable microfluidic electrochemical device (DμFED) constructed by rapid prototyping technique and composed by an array of immunosensors. In DμFED, the electrodes were modified with monoclonal antibody anti-CP-CTV and the detection was carried out using amperometry, based on the hydroquinone/H2O2 catalytic redox reaction due to the presence of HRP label in an immune-sandwich structure. The proposed immunoassay presented excellent linearity with a wide linear range of concentration of 1.95-10.0 × 103 fg mL-1 and ultralow detection limit of 0.3 fg mL-1. The disposable device was successfully applied for the detection of Citrus tristeza virus in healthy and infected plant samples, where it showed good agreements with the comparative method of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The developed immunoassay methodology showed a sensitive and selective way in the detection of CTV. Hence, it can be considered as a promising analytical alternative for rapid and low-cost diagnosis of Tristeza disease in citrus.

Abstract
Infectious bursal disease virus is a causative agent of one of the most important disease which causes frequent tragic disaster in the poultry industry all over the world. Therefore, in the present study a new fluorescence resonance energy transfer-based technique was developed to detect VP2 gene of infectious bursal disease virus using two oligonucleotide probes labeled with quantum dots and rhodamine- immobilized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs-Rh). Quantum dots labeled with an amino-modified first oligonucleotide, and AuNPs-Rh labeled with thiol-modified second oligonucleotides were added to the DNA targets upon which hybridization occurred. In the presence of target the AuNPs-Rh will be located in the vicinity of the quantum dots and leads to the fluorescence resonance energy transfer to be occurred and subsequently the fluorescence intensity of quantum dots was stimulated. The immobilization of rhodamine to the surface of AuNPs increased the fluorescence intensity of rhodamine. The maximum fluorescence resonance energy transfer efficiency for the developed sensor is monitored at a quantum dots-PA/AuNPs-Rh-PT molar ratio of 1:10. Moreover, the feasibility of the developed nanobiosensor was demonstrated by the detection of a synthetic 49-mer nucleotide derived from infectious bursal disease virus and the limit of detection was estimated as 3 × 10-8 M. The developed DNA detection scheme is a simple, rapid and efficient technique which does not need excessive washing and separation steps.

Abstract
Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR), widely used for the detection of plant viruses, are not easily performed, resulting in a demand for an innovative and more efficient diagnostic method. This paper summarizes the characteristics and research trends of biosensors focusing on the physicochemical properties of both interface elements and bioconjugates. In particular, the topological and photophysical properties of quantum dots (QDs) are discussed, along with QD-based biosensors and their practical applications. The QD-based Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) genosensor, most widely used in the biomolecule detection fields, and QD-based nanosensor for Rev-RRE interaction assay are presented as examples. In recent years, QD-based biosensors have emerged as a new class of sensor and are expected to open opportunities in plant virus detection, but as yet there have been very few practical applications (Table 3). In this article, the details of those cases and their significance for the future of plant virus detection will be discussed.

Abstract
As an integral glycoprotein on the surface of endothelial cells, thrombomodulin (TM) has very high affinity for thrombin. TM has been regarded to be a marker of endothelial damage since it can be released during endothelial cell injury. In this work, a highly sensitive fluorescence method for the quantitative detection of TM was developed. TM antibody (Ab) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were bound on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to construct BSA-AuNPs-Ab nanocomposites and they were characterized by transmission electron microscope and UV-vis spectrophotometry. The fluorescence of acridine orange (AO) was quenched by the prepared gold nanocomposites based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). In the presence of TM, the fluorescence was turned on due to the effective separation of AO from the surface of gold nanocomposites. Under optimum conditions, the enhanced fluorescence intensity displayed a linear relationship with the logarithm of the TM concentration from 0.1pgmL-1 to 5ngmL-1 with a low detection limit of 12fgmL-1. The release of soluble thrombomodulin (sTM) by the injured HUVEC-C cells in the presence of H2O2 was investigated using the proposed method. The released sTM content in the growth medium was found to be increased with the enhancement of contact time of the cells with H2O2.
