We report on the preparation of fluorescent silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) modified with chitosan and lucigenin by using a reverse microemulsion method. The introduction of chitosan to the lucigenin doped SiNPs is shown to improve the fluorescence quantum yield. The modified SiNPs were used as fluorescent markers in an aptamer-based method for selective determination of thrombin. In this protocol, thrombin was sandwiched between streptavidin-coated magnetic beads and the fluorescent SiNPs modified with a thrombin-binding aptamer. The method was successfully applied to the determination of thrombin in human serum and showed a detection limit as low as 0.02 nM. In our perception, the protocol presented here is promising in that such SiNPs may be applied to the sensitive fluorescent detection of other analytes by changing the corresponding aptamer.

We report on a simple, sensitive and regenerable fluorescent nanoprobe for Zn(II) ion. It is based on the use of glutathione capped CdTe quantum dots (GSH-CdTe Q-dots). The bright fluorescence of these Q-dots is quenched on addition of diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) due to the binding of DTPA to GSH. If, however, Zn(II) is added, it will bind DTPA and detach it from the surface of the Q-dots, this resulting in the fluorescence recovery. Under optimum conditions, the intensity of the restored fluorescence is proportional to the concentration of Zn(II) in the 0.48 to 90 μmol · L−1 range, with a limit of detection of 0.14 μmol · L−1. The nanoprobe was applied to the determination of Zn(II) in spiked tap water and river water and gave satisfactory results. The findings were also applied to design a molecular logic gate where DTPA acts as the first input to the system by quenching the fluorescence of the GSH-CdTe Q-dots. Zn(II) acts as the second input and causes the detachment of DTPA from the Q-dots and a restoration of fluorescence. This system therefore represents a new IMP (IMPLICATION) logic gate.

We describe a fluorescent nanoprobe for Zn(II) based on quantum dots, and its use in an IMP molecular logic gate. The nanoprobe was successfully applied to the determination of Zn(II) in spiked tap water and river water.

A label-free and single-step method is reported for rapid and highly sensitive detection of bisphenol A (BPA) in aqueous samples. It utilizes an aptamer acting as a probe molecule immobilized on a commercially available array of interdigitated aluminum microelectrodes. BPA was quantified by measuring the interfacial capacitance change rate caused by the specific binding between bisphenol A and the immobilized aptamer. The AC signal also induces an AC electrokinetic effect to generate microfluidic motion for enhanced binding. The capacitive aptasensor achieves a limit of detection as low as 10 fM(2.8 fg ⋅ mL − 1) with a 20 s response time. The method is inexpensive, highly sensitive, rapid and therefore provides a promising technology for on-site detection of BPA in food and water samples.

A. AC electrokinetics effect plays a vital role in BPA detection by introducing microfluidic movement to accelerate the molecular transport to the electrode surface.

B. The ACEK capacitive aptasensor has a limit of detection as low as 10 fM (2.8 fg ⋅ mL − 1) with a 20-s response time.

Magnetic Fe3O4@SiO2 core shell nanoparticles containing diphenylcarbazide in the shell were utilized for solid phase extraction of Hg(II) from aqueous solutions. The Hg(II) loaded nanoparticles were then separated by applying an external magnetic field. Adsorbed Hg(II) was desorbed and its concentration determined with a rhodamine-based fluorescent probe. The calibration graph for Hg(II) is linear in the 60 nM to 7.0 μM concentration range, and the detection limit is at 23 nM. The method was applied, with satisfying results, to the determination of Hg(II) in industrial waste water.

Hetero-dimeric magnetic nanoparticles of the type Au-Fe3O4 have been synthesised from separately prepared, differently shaped (spheres and cubes), monodisperse nanoparticles. This synthesis was achieved by the following steps: (a) Mono-functionalising each type of nanoparticles with aldehyde functional groups through a solid support approach, where nanoparticle decorated silica nanoparticles were fabricated as an intermediate step; (b) Derivatising the functional faces with complementary functionalities (e.g. amines and carboxylic acids); (c) Dimerising the two types of particles via amide bond formation. The resulting hetero-dimers were characterised by high-resolution TEM, Fourier transform IR spectroscopy and other appropriate methods.

Nano-LEGO: Assembling two types of separately prepared nanoparticles into a hetero-dimer is the first step towards complex nano-architectures. This study shows a solid support approach to combine a gold and a magnetite nanocrystal.

We report on the first application of terahertz metamaterials acting as transducers for chemical sensors based on conducting polymers. In our feasibility study aimed at sensing of gaseous hydrochloric and ammonia, a two-dimensional sensor metamaterial consisting of an array of split-ring resonators on the surface of undoped silicon wafer was prepared. The surface of the resonator was coated with a 150-μm layer of polyaniline. Binding of hydrogen chloride to polyaniline leads to distinct changes in the resonance frequency of the metamaterial. Measurements can be performed both in the reflection and transmission mode. A numerical simulation of the response revealed an increase of both the real and the imaginary components of the dielectric function of the polyaniline film. These changes are attributed to the transition from emaraldine base to emeraldine salt. The results demonstrate a new approach for formation of highly sensitive transducers for chemical sensors.

We describe a simple and homogenous fluorimetric method for sensitive determination of DNA. It is based on target-triggered isothermal cycling and a cascade exponential amplification reaction that generates a large amount of a G-quadruplex. This results in strong fluorescence signal when using thioflavin T as a G-quadruplex-specific light-up fluorescent probe. Tedious handling after amplification is widely eliminated by the addition of thioflavin T. No other exogenous reagent is required. This detection platform is inexpensive and rapid, and displays high sensitivity for target DNA, with a detection limit as low as 91 pM.

The addition of target DNA can trigger the isothermal exponential amplification reaction to generate a large amount of G-quadruplex sequence oligonucleotides and then employ thioflavin T (Th T) (a G-quadruplex-specific light-up dye) as signal output for sensitive DNA detection.

This article describes an electrochemical sensor for the dye additive Sunset Yellow (SY). It consists of a carbon paste electrode modified with nanostructured resorcinol-formaldehyde (RF) resin. The RF resin warrants strong signal enhancement and a strongly increased oxidation peak currents of SY at 0.66 V (vs. SCE). The effects of pH value, amount of RF polymer, accumulation potential and time were optimized. The sensor has a linear response to SY in the 0.3 to 125 nM concentration range, and the limit of detection is 0.09 nM after a 2-min accumulation time. The electrode was applied to the analysis of samples of wastewater and drinks, and the results are consistent with those obtained by HPLC.

Nanostructured resorcinol-formaldehyde (RF) resin was prepared and used as a material for electrochemical determination of Sunset Yellow.

We describe an electrochemical sensor for nitric oxide that was obtained by modifying the surface of a nanofiber carbon paste microelectrode with a film composed of hexadecyl trimethylammonium bromide and nafion. The modified microelectrode displays excellent catalytic activity in the electrochemical oxidation of nitric oxide. The mechanism was studied by scanning electron microscopy and cyclic voltammetry. Under optimal conditions, the oxidation peak current at a working voltage of 0.75 V (vs. SCE) is related to the concentration of nitric oxide in the 2 nM to 0.2 mM range, and the detection limit is as low as 2 nM (at an S/N ratio of 3). The sensor was successfully applied to the determination of nitric oxide released from mouse hepatocytes.

NO electrochemical sensor based on CTAB-Nafion/CNFPME was fabricated through a simple method and applied to detect NO released from mouse hepatocytes successfully.

We report on a sensitive aptamer-antibody interaction-based assay for cytochrome c (Cyt c) using electrochemical impedance. 4-Amino benzoic acid is used for the oriented immobilization of aminated aptamers onto multi-walled carbon nanotubes on the surface of a screen-printed electrode via electrochemical grafting. Impedance was measured in a solution containing the redox system ferro/ferricyanide. The change in interfacial charge transfer resistance (Rct) experienced by the redox marker was recorded to confirm the formation of a complex between aptamer and the target (Cyt c). A biotinylated antibody against cytochrome c was then used in a sandwich type of assay. The addition of streptavidin conjugated to gold nanoparticles and signal enhancement by treatment with silver led to a further increase in Rct. Under optimized conditions, a detection limit as low as 12 pM was obtained. Cross-reactivity against other serum proteins including fibrinogen, BSA and immunoglobulin G demonstrated improved selectivity.

Sensitive and selective assay for cytochrome c protein using aptamer linked to multi-walled carbon nanotube screen printed electrode via diazonium electrochemical grafting and specific biotinylated antibody to improve selectivity. Detection can be based on electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, or using a streptavidin-gold nanoparticle conjugate.

We describe a turn-off fluorescence-based strategy for the detection of ATP by making use of aptamer-triggered dsDNA concatamers. This sensitive and easily controlled method is based on consecutive hybridization induced by ATP aptamers and their sectional complementary DNAs to form dsDNA concatamers. The intercalator SYBR Green I (SGI) was employed as a fluorescent probe. In the absence of ATP, the probe produces a strong signal. However, on addition of ATP, the binding of aptamer and ATP cause the concatamers to collapse and to release SGI whose fluorescence then is quenched. The effect was exploited to design a selective ATP assay by relating the decrease in fluorescence to the ATP concentration. A lower detection limit of 6.1 μM and a linear response in the 0 to 5000 μM concentration range was accomplished. The strategy was applied to cellular ATP assays, and the results obtained by this strategy and by the gold standard method are in good agreement. The method is sensitive, simple and cost efficient, and hence is promising in terms of future applications to determine ATP in cellular and other systems.

We describe a simple, highly sensitive, and selective colorimetric kinetic assay for the determination of potassium(I) by exploiting the specific recognition capability of an appropriate aptamer and catalytic signal amplification by gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). Amplification is based on the reduction of 4-nitrophenol by borohydride which is catalyzed by AuNPs. This leads to a color change of the solution from yellow to colorless, and the color change can be recognized with bare eyes or via photometry. The K(I)-selective aptamer is placed on the AuNPs and forms a tightly bound G-quadruplex with K(I) which partially masks the surface of the AuNPs and prevents 4-nitrophenol to be reduced at the catalytically active surface of the AuNPs. Hence, the rate of decoloration is retarded. The assay displays high selectivity for K(I) over other cations, has a linear response in the 0.1 nM to 10 μM concentration range, and a detection limit as low as 0.06 nM. In addition, these findings pave the way to novel analytical methods based on the use of gold nanoparticle-catalyzed chemical reactions.

A simple, highly sensitive, and selective colorimetric kinetic assay for the determination of potassium(I) was represented.

The replacement of antibodies by molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) has been investigated for many decades. However, indirect protocols (including natural primary and secondary antibodies) are still utilized to evaluate the ability of MIP thin films to recognize target molecules. MIPs can be prepared as either a thin film or as particles, and cavities that are complementary to the template can be generated on their surfaces. We have prepared thin film MIPs and particle MIPs prepared by solvent evaporation and phase inversion, respectively, from solutions of poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) (pEVAL) in the presence of the target analytes amylase, lysozyme, and lipase. These were first adsorbed on MIP thin films and by MIP particles that contain fluorescent quantum dots. Sandwich fluoroimmunoassays were then conducted to quantify them in MIP-coated 96-well microplates. The method was applied to determine amylase in saliva, and results were compared with a commercial analytical system.

We describe the preparation of carbon dots (CDs) from glucose that possess high stability, a quantum yield of 0.32, and low toxicity (according to an MTT assay). They were used, in combination with the fluorogenic zinc(II) probe quercetin to establish a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) system for the determination of Zn(II). The CDs are acting as the donor, and the quercetin-Zn(II) complex as the acceptor. This is possible because of the strong overlap between the fluorescence spectrum of CDs and the absorption spectrum of the complex. The method enables Zn(II) to be determined in the 2 to 100 μM concentration range, with a 2 μM detection limit. The method was applied to image the distribution of Zn(II) ions in HeLa cells.

Based on the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between carbon dots and quercetin (QCT)-Zn2+, the fluorescence indicator was established, which displays high sensitivity and selectivity in the detection of Zn2+. The method was also applied to image the distribution of Zn(II) ions in HeLa cells.

We report on a method for the determination of the herbicide atrazine in tap water samples using melamine-modified gold nanoparticles (Mel-AuNPs). If a solution containing atrazine is added to a solution of such NPs, a color change occurs from wine-red to blue. This is due to a transition from monodisperse to aggregated Mel-AuNPs and caused by strong hydrogen bonding between atrazine and melamine. The color change can be monitored by a UV–vis spectrophotometer or with bare eyes. The ratio of the absorbances at 640 and 523 nm is linearly related to the logarithm of the atrazine concentration in the 0.165 to 16.5 μM range, and (with different slope) in the 16.5 μM to 330 μM range. The detection limit of atrazine is as low as 16.5 nM (S/N = 3). The method was successfully applied to the determination of atrazine in spiked tap water and gave recoveries that ranged from 72.5 % to 102.3 %.

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) from Electrophorus electricus was immobilized on the surface of amino-modified magnetic beads (AChE-MB), and its activity evaluated by the quantification of acetylcholine hydrolysis. A reference mixture composed of AChE binders (galanthamine and a probe coumarin, K i = 0.031 ± 0.010 μM) and non-binders (ketamine and propranolol) was used to probe the fishing assay. The performance of the bioconjugation assay was demonstrated with a library of 12 reference coumarins from which two ligands were directly identified by LC-MS/MS in a single assay, demonstrating the usefulness of this approach.

A bioconjugate-screening assay with AChE-modified magnetic beads was developed to direct identification of AChE binders, in mixtures, by LC-MS/MS. A reference mixture of twelve coumarins was used and, the two ligands were identified.

Platinum nanoparticles (Pt-NPs) with sizes in the range from 10 to 30 nm were synthesized using protein-directed one-pot reduction. The model globular protein bovine serum albumin (BSA) was exploited as the template, and the resulting BSA/Pt-NPs were studied by transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and resonance Rayleigh scattering spectroscopy. The modified nanoparticles display a peroxidase-like activity that was exploited in a rapid method for the colorimetric determination of hydrogen peroxide which can be detected in the 50 μM to 3 mM concentration range. The limit of detection is 7.9 μM, and the lowest concentration that can be visually detected is 200 μM.

Pt-NPs were synthesized using BSA-directed one-pot reduction and BSA/Pt-NPs composite can effectively catalyze the oxidation of TMB producing blue solution in the presence of H2O2.

We have investigated the gas sensing properties of ZnO thin films (100 to 200 nm thickness) deposited by room-temperature radio frequency magnetron sputtering. The sensitivity of the films to ethanol vapor was measured in the 10 to 50 ppm concentration range at operating temperatures between 200 and 400 °C. A synergetic effect of decreasing grain size and increasing operating temperature was observed towards the improvement of the sensitivity, reaching a value of 54 and a limit of detection as low as 0.61 ppm. The decrease in the grain size resulted in prolonged response time but faster recovery. In any case, both response time and recovery time are < 400 s. The results demonstrate that room-temperature magnetron sputtering is a viable approach to enhance the performances of ZnO films in sensors for ethanol vapor.

A molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) for the specific retention of neopterin has been developed. A set of 6 polymers was prepared by radical polymerization under different experimental condition using methacrylic acid as functional monomer and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as crosslinker, with the aim to understand their influence on the efficiency of the MIP. The performance of each MIP was tested in batch experiments via their binding capacity. The MIP prepared in the presence of nickel ions in dimethylsulfoxide-acetonitrile mixture (P4) exhibited the highest binding capacity for neopterin (260 μmol per gram of polymer). A selectivity study with two other pteridines demonstrated the polymer P4 also to possess the best selectivity.

We describe a reversible fluorescent DNA–based INHIBIT logic gate for the determination of silver(I) and iodide ions using graphene oxide (GO) as a signal transducer and Ag(I) and iodide as mechanical activators. The basic performance, optimized conditions, sensitivity and selectivity of the logic gate were investigated and revealed that the method is highly sensitive and selective over potentially interfering ions. The limits of detection for Ag(I) and iodide are 10 nM and 50 nM, respectively. This logic gate was successfully applied to the determination of Ag(I) and iodide in (spiked) tap water and river water. It was also used for the determination of iodide in human urine samples with satisfactory results. Compared to other methods, this INHIBIT logic gate is simple in design and has small background interference.

A simple and reversible fluorescent DNA-based INHIBIT logic gate is designed by using graphene oxide as a signal transducer and silver ions and iodide as mechanical activators.
