Abstract
Tropomyosin (TM) is the main allergen in shellfish. Developing a novel, simple and accurate method to track and detect TM in food products is necessary. In this work, a label-free fluorescent aptasensor based on polythymidine (poly(T))-templated copper nanoclusters (CuNCs) was designed for sensitive detection of TM in processed shrimp products. Magnetic beads (MBs), aptamer and cDNA were used to construct an MBs-aptamer@cDNA complex as a detection probe, and with the presence of TM, the poly(T)-templated CuNCs attached at the end of the cDNA as the fluorescent signal was released from the complex to turn on the fluorescence. Under optimal conditions, the poly(T)-templated CuNCs aptasensor achieved a linear range from 0.1 to 50 μg/mL (R2 = 0.9980), a low limit of detection of 0.0489 μg/mL and an excellent recovery percentage of 105.29%-108.91% in the complex food matrix, providing a new approach for food safety assurance.

Abstract
Poisoning events concerning diarrhetic shellfish poisons (DSPs) are increasing continually. It is extremely necessary to develop simple analysis methods for screening simultaneously different types of DSPs from food-related samples. Okadaic acid (OA) and its analogues, i.e., dinophysistoxin-1 (DTX-1) and dinophysistoxin-2 (DTX-2), are the prevalent DSPs. Herein, a facile and label-free fluorescent aptasensor targeting the three DSPs was constructed with a pair of group-specific split aptamers and silver nanocluster beacon. In presence of the targets, the DNA templates attached at the ends of the split aptamers would be dragged close to trigger enhanced fluorescence signals from silver nanoclusters. The aptasensor offered high sensitivity and good selectivity, with limit of detection of 2.282 nmolL-1, 19.38 nmolL-1, and 13.61 nmolL-1 for OA, DTX-1, and DTX-2, respectively. Moreover, the applicability of aptasensor was well verified with shellfish and seawater samples. This study provides good reference for further exploration on analysis methods for food-related molecules.

Abstract
Currently, sensitive and accurate approaches for diagnosis, rapid assessment, and cardiac biomarker monitoring in patients with heart failure are needed. In this context, the advantages of aptamers over traditional antibodies have been employed to fabricate a single-step impedimetric N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP)-modified gold microelectrode array. The development of an electrochemical aptasensing platform was based on the coimmobilization of alkanethiol self-assembled monolayers and amine-terminated aptamer that specifically recognized cardiac NT-proBNP protein resulting in charge electron transfer. Electroimpedimetric signals of the sensor were observed to be linear to the NT-proBNP concentrations in the range of 5.0 × 10-3 to 1.0 pg mL-1 (R2 = 0.9624), while achieving a low detection limit of 5.0 × 10-3 pg mL-1. Clinically relevant detection levels for NT-proBNP were achieved in a simple, rapid, and label-free measurement using artificial saliva, which was highlighted to be specific, regenerative, and selective over potential interferers occurring during the processes of cardiac insufficiency, Therefore, the novel NT-proBNP aptasensor is a promising point-of-care tool exhibiting safe, non-invasive, affordable, and non-prescription home use accessible to overcome the limitations associated with conventional ELISA and previous aptasensing.

Abstract
We designed and synthesized a novel covalent organic framework (COF) by condensation polymerization of 1,3,6,8-tetrakis(4-formylphenyl)pyrene and melamine through imine bonds (represented by Py-M-COF). The basic characterizations revealed that the Py-M-COF not only exhibited an extended π-conjugation framework, a large specific surface area (495.5 m2 g-1), big pore cavities, and nanosheet-like structure but also possessed rich functional groups, such as C˭C, C˭N, C˭O, and NH2. These features endowed the Py-M-COF with high charge carrier mobility, further improving the strong immobilization of DNA aptamer strands via π-π stacking interaction and electrostatic interaction. As such, the Py-M-COF-based electrochemical aptasensors are ultrasensitive in detecting different antibiotics, including enrofloxacin (ENR) and ampicillin (AMP), yielding extremely low detection limits of 6.07 and 0.04 fg mL-1 (S/N = 3) toward ENR and AMP, respectively, along with other excellent sensing performances. This biosensing platform based on Py-M-COF has potential applications for the sensitive detection of antibiotics or other analytes by replacing the corresponding aptamers.

Abstract
Muscovy duck parvovirus (MDPV) causes high mortality and morbidity in ducks. This study investigated a novel aptamer-based, label-free aptasensor detection of MDPV. In this study, we developed an ssDNA aptamer using the filtration partition and lambda exonuclease method with an affinity-based monitor and counter-screening process. After 15 rounds of SELEX (systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment), the ssDNA aptamer Apt-10, which specifically bound to MDPV with high affinity (Kd = 467nM) was successfully screened, and the aptamer was also found to be good specific to MDPV. The selected Apt-10 aptamer can be used to distinguish MDPV and goose parvovirus (GPV). Three-dimensional structural analysis of the Apt-10 aptamer indicated that it folded into a compact stem-loop motif, which was related to its high affinity. Finally, a label-free detection method based on unmodified gold nanoparticles and Apt-10 aptamer was developed for MDPV determination. The concentration of Apt-10 aptamer at 5μM was optimal for MDPV determination in the label-free aptasensor. Excellent linearity was acquired and the lowest detection limit was 1.5 or 3 EID50 (50% egg infection dose) of MDPV, respectively, depending upon spectrophotometry or the naked eye were used. These results show the potential of the aptamer for the rapid detection of MDPV and antiviral research.

Abstract
The present study aims at the fabrication of a novel electrochemical aptasensor, Ap-GA-AMSN-GCE, for the label-free determination of hemin and hemoglobin (Hb). Basically, the electrochemical reduction current of hemin or Hb incubated on Ap-GA-AMSN-GCE in the presence of oxygen serves as an excellent signal for quantitative determination of these analytes. By differential pulse voltammetry, the calibration plot was linear in the concentration range of 1.0 × 10-19-1.0 × 10-6 M of hemin and Hb. Also, the detection limits, DL, of hemin and Hb were found to be 7.5 × 10-20 M and 6.5 × 10-20 M respectively. According to the experimental results, using the proposed aptasensor in the absence of any oxygen molecule in the analytical solution, the DL value of hemin was 1.0 × 10-12 M. The very low DL obtained in the presence of oxygen is due to the excellent electrocatalytic activity of hemin and Hb incubated on the aptasensor for oxygen reduction. This electrocatalytic activity has a key role in bringing about excellent low detection limits, DL, and wide linear concentration ranges of analytes. Finally, this aptasensor was satisfactorily used for the determination of Hb in human blood samples.

Abstract
A facile label-free electrochemiluminescence (ECL) aptasensor was designed for sensitive detection of human immunoglobulin E (IgE) using petal-like CdS nanospheres and Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) as sensing platform. To construct the aptasensor, petal-like CdS nanospheres as ECL emitter were firstly synthesized and immobilized on the chitosan-coated glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface. Chitosan was coated on the CdS/CS/GCE again with two coating numbers to produce a stable ECL signal and facilitate subsequent AuNPs immobilization. The construction of aptasensor was achieved after IgE aptamer was adsorbed onto the AuNPs. The detection of IgE was performed upon the incubation of the interface with target protein IgE. Under the optimum conditions, the ECL signal decreased depending linearly on the logarithmic value of IgE concentration ranging from 5.0×10(-13) to 1.0×10(-9)M with a regression equation of I=-15254.8-2129.3 logc (R(2)=0.996). The detection limit was experimentally found to be 8.0×10(-14)M. The applicability of the constructed aptasensor was demonstrated in the determination of IgE in human serum samples.
