Abstract
Current methods for the rapid detection of trace antibiotics in the environment remains problems of low accuracy and false negative or false positive, making the development of fast, and accurate, and reliable methods for antibiotic testing a major challenge that needs to be addressed. Herein, we developed a novel label-free colorimetric and fluorescent dual-mode aptasensor assembled by the strong interaction of layered MoSe2 nanosheets (MoSe2 NSs) with ampicillin (AMP) aptamer functionalized silver nanoclusters (Apt-AgNCs) that specifically bind AMP to allow the sensitive and selective detection of AMP. Apt-AgNCs could be adsorbed on the surface of MoSe2 NSs via van der Waals force to form a nanocomposite, Apt-AgNCs/MoSe2 NSs. Interestingly, Apt-AgNCs/MoSe2 NSs act together to construct dual mode aptasensor through modulation of the intrinsic peroxidase activity of MoSe2 NSs and the fluorescence of Apt-AgNCs. In the presence of AMP, Apt-AgNCs could specifically bind AMP, triggering desorption from the MoSe2 NSs surface, leading to a decrease in the peroxidase activity of the system with the recovery in Apt-AgNCs fluorescence. The dual-signal aptasensor exhibited good linear colorimetric and fluorescence responses in the AMP concentration ranges of 0.115-2.00 μM and 6-100 nM, respectively. Furthermore, the aptasensor was successfully measured AMP levels in commercially-bought milk and lake water with satisfactory results. Unlike single-signal aptasensors, the constructed dual-signal aptasensor could not only improve the detection precision, but also reduce the false positive or false negative results. These promising results suggest that the dual-readout strategy as demonstrated is general mode for the detection of other antibiotics or compounds using various aptamers functionalized AgNCs in concert with MoSe2 NSs.

Abstract
This study highlights the potential of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) to differentiate between B-cell lymphoma (BCL), T-cell lymphoma (TCL), lymph node metastasis of melanoma (Met) and control (Ctr) samples based on the specific SERS signal of DNA extracted from lymph node tissue biopsy. Differences in the methylation profiles as well as the specific interaction of malignant and non-malignant DNA with the metal nanostructure are captured in specific variations of the band at 1005 cm-1, attributed to 5-methylcytosine and the band at 730 cm-1, attributed to adenine. Thus, using the area ratio of these two SERS marker bands as input for univariate classification, an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.70 was achieved in differentiating between malignant and non-malignant DNA. In addition, DNA from the BCL and TCL groups exhibited differences in the area of the SERS band at 730 cm-1, yielding an AUC of 0.84 in differentiating between these two lymphadenopathies. Lastly, using multivariate data analysis techniques, an overall accuracy of 94.7% was achieved in the differential diagnosis between the BCL, TCL, Met and Ctr groups. These results pave the way towards the implementation of SERS as a novel tool in the clinical setting for improving the diagnosis of malignant lymphadenopathy.
