A label-free electrochemical impedimetric biosensor was constructed based on gold carbon dots (GCDs) modified screen-printed carbon electrode for the detection of genetic modified (GM) soybean. The structure and property of GCDs were investigated. The GCDs can directly bind to single-stranded DNA probes through Au-thiol interaction and boost electric conductivity for the DNA sensor construction. The quantification of target DNA was monitored by the change of electron-transfer resistance ( R et ) upon the DNA hybridization on sensor surface. Under the optimal conditions, the R et response (vs. Ag reference electrode) increased with the logarithm of target DNA concentrations in a wide linear range of 1.0 × 10 −7 − 1.0 × 10 −13 M with a detection limit of 3.1 × 10 −14 M ( S / N = 3). It was also demonstrated that the proposed DNA sensor possessed high specificity for discriminating target DNA from mismatched sequences. Moreover, the developed biosensor was applied to detect SHZD32-1 in actual samples, and the results showed a good consistency with those obtained from the gel electrophoresis method. Compared with the previous reports for DNA detection, the label-free biosensor showed a comparatively simple platform due to elimination of complicated DNA labeling. Therefore, the proposed method showed great potential to be an alternative device for simple, sensitive, specific, and portable DNA sensor. Graphical abstract

As the cultivation scale of genetically modified (GM) crops strongly increases, a convenient DNA assay is highly demanded in resource-limited areas. A label-free electrochemical impedance (EI) genosensor using gold carbon dots (GCDs) was developed with easy-to-use portable device. GCDs were used to modify screen-printed carbon electrode and immobilize capture probes by conducting a simple protocol. After the amplification products anchored on the sensor surface via hybridization reactions, the EI signal increased due to the formation of biocomplex hampering the interfacial electron transfer. Under the optimal conditions, the proposed genosensor coupled with recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) could detect maize Ruifeng12-5 in a linear range of 0.10–5.0% with a detection limit of 0.10%. In addition, combined with a one-step extraction and RPA amplification, the proposed sensor device can be applied in resource-limited laboratories without expensive instruments or professionals. Therefore, the developed method provides an easy-to-use and sensitive platform for GM organism detection.Keywords:electrochemical impedance;genosensor;gold carbon dots;recombinase polymerase amplification;genetically modified organisms

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in China. Glypican-3 (GPC3) is a specific antigen related to HCC, which is widely used in clinical detection as a reliable marker of HCC. In this paper, a highly sensitive homogeneous apatasensor was designed for GPC3 detection based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) where the GPC3 aptamer labelled gold carbon dots (AuCDs-GPC3 Apt ) are used as a donor and magnetic graphene oxide (Fe 3 O 4 /GO) nanosheets are used as an acceptor. A one-step hydrothermal method was used to synthesize AuCDs to provide sufficient fluorescence. The FRET phenomenon exists between AuCDs-GPC3 Apt and Fe 3 O 4 /GO, which weakens the fluorescence intensity of the whole system. When the target GPC3 is added to the FRET system, the fluorescent AuCDs-GPC3 Apt binds to the GPC3 and forms a folded structure, which leads to AuCDs-GPC3 Apt separation from Fe 3 O 4 /GO nanosheets. The Fe 3 O 4 /GO is then magnetically separated so that the fluorescence of free labelled AuCDs-GPC3 Apt is restored. Under the optimum conditions, the fluorescence recovery rate is linearly correlated with the concentration of GPC3 (5–100 ng·mL −1 ) and the detection limit is 3.01 ng·mL −1 (S/N = 3). This strategy shows recoveries from 98.76 to 101.29% in real human serum samples and provides an immediate and effective detection method for the quantification of GPC3 with great potential applications for early diagnosis of HCC. Graphical abstract A sensitive homogeneous FRET-based apatasensor was designed for GPC3 detection where the AuCDs-GPC3 Apt is a donor and Fe 3 O 4 /GO nanosheets are an acceptor. The GPC3 fluorescent aptasensor combines wider output range with low cost, high specificity, and good anti-interference.

The development of a novel strategy for the measurement of SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies is of vital significance forCOVID-19diagnosis and effect of vaccination evaluation. In this investigation, an SiO2@Au@CDs nanoparticle (NP)-based lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) strip was fabricated and coupled with a miniaturized fluorimeter. The morphology features and particle sizes of the SiO2@Au@CDs NPs were characterized carefully, and the results indicated that the materials possess monodisperse, uniform, and spherical structures. Finally, this system was employed for SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody test. In this work, the strategy for the SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody test possesses several merits, such as speed (less than 15 min), high sensitivity (1.2 × 10−7mg/mL), broad linearity range (7.4 × 10−7~7.4 × 10−4mg/mL), accurate results, high selectivity, good stability, and low cost. Additionally, future trends in LFAs using quantum dot-based diagnostics are envisioned.

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technology has attracted more and more attention in the biomedical field due to its ability to provide molecular fingerprint information of biological samples, as well as its potential in single-cell analysis. This work aims to establish a simple strategy for label-free SERS bioanalysis based on Au@carbon dot nanoprobes (Au@CDs). Here, polyphenol-derived CDs are utilized as the reductant to rapidly synthesize core-shell Au@CD nanostructures, which allows powerful SERS performance even when the concentration of methylene blue (MB) is as low as 10-9 M, due to the cooperative Raman enhancement mechanism. For bioanalysis, Au@CDs can serve as a unique SERS nanosensor to identify the cellular components of biosamples (e.g., cancer cells and bacteria). The molecular fingerprints from different species can be further distinguished after combination with the principal component analysis. In addition, Au@CDs also enable label-free SERS imaging to analyze intracellular composition profiles. This strategy offers a feasible, label-free SERS bioanalysis, opening up a new prospect for nanodiagnosis.
