Au@BSA was prepared at pH 8, pH 9, pH 10, pH 11, pH 11.4, and pH 12 as the working electrode of the non-enzymatic glucose sensor by biological template method. The six kinds of gold-cluster film working electrodes sintered by Au@BSA show golden color, especially the golden films corresponding to pH 8 and pH 12 are obvious. The gold-cluster films at pH 8, pH 9, pH 10, and pH 11 showed mono-layer gold nanoparticles, while the gold-cluster film at pH 11.4 showed porous structure. The gold-cluster film prepared at pH 12 presents a multi-layer 3D structure composed of a large number of gold nanoparticles. The linear detection range of the non-enzymatic glucose sensor prepared at pH 8 is the widest among the six sensors, and its sensitivity is also better than the other four sensors except the sensor prepared at pH 12. The sensor with the gold-cluster film-modified working electrode prepared at pH 12 show the highest sensitivity (330.002 μA mM −1 cm −2 ), because multi-layer 3D structure can bring more electric catalytic active site for this sensor. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy showed that the specific surface area of the sensor prepared at pH 12 was much larger than that of the other five sensors. We provide a pH cycling method for once shaping preparation that can be extended to other metal films or metal-oxide films electrochemical interfaces. The Au@BSA non-enzymatic glucose sensor prepared in this paper is stable and can resist the toxicity of excessive chloride ions without losing activity.

Here, a novel electrochemiluminescence biosensor based on potential-resolved strategy was firstly prepared for the detection of dual targets α2,3-sialylated glycans and α2,6-sialylated glycans. This is the first time that Au@BSA microsphere was used to connect with luminol to enhance its ECL intensity, and it can generate ECL signals at positive potential. Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-8 (ZIF-8) and Meso-tetra (4-carboxyphenyl) porphyrin (TCPP) were linked using a one-pot method to synthesize a novel luminescent ZIF (L-ZIF) named TZZ, which can emit ECL signals at negative potential. Moreover, magnetite microspheres were used to construct a sandwich-type biosensor to obtain higher sensitivity and reduce background signals. In addition, the biosensor manufactured directly in solution have a wider linear range than constructed on electrode because it has more available space than the electrode surface. Due to the above advantages, the prepared ECL biosensor exhibited high sensitivity, stability and broader linear range, even for practical analysis. Therefore, the prepared ECL biosensor will become a promising method for determination of α2,3-sialylated glycans and α2,6-sialylated glycans in clinical applications in the future. What is more, it provides a potential method for detection of other multi-targets.

The nanocomposite (Au@BSA) which was synthesized using gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) was used as an electrochemical sensing layer for chiral recognition of propranolol (PRO). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy and amperometric testing technique were employed to characterize the Au@BSA nanocomposite. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were used to assess the enantioselective performance of the fabricated interface, and the optimal experimental conditions, such as acidity and incubation time were also discussed. The results showed that after the modified interface interacted with PRO enantiomers larger discrepancy was obtained from S-PRO, and linear electrochemical responses to PRO enantiomers were obtained from 1.0 × 10−5 to 5.0 × 10−3 mol L−1 with a detection limit of 3.3 × 10−6 mol L−1 (S/N = 3). To gain more information on the role of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) in the chiral recognition of PRO enantiomers, the interface fabricated using AuNPs or BSA was also allowed to interact with PRO enantiomers, and no obvious signal discrepancy was obtained. The results suggested that only Au@BSA could be employed for the enantioselective recognition of PRO enantiomers.

The hypoxic microenvironment of solid tumors can lead to reduced therapeutic DNA damage to the tumor cells, thus diminishing tumor sensitivity to radiotherapy. Although hypoxic radiosensitizers can improve radiotherapy efficacy by enhancing the role of oxygen, their effects are limited by the uneven distribution of oxygen within solid tumor tissues. In this study, a novel radiosensitizer via leveraging gold complexes and metronidazole (MN) was synthesized to improve radiotherapeutic efficacy. The gold atoms incorporated in the radiosensitizer enabled efficient deposition of high-energy radiation; the hydrophobic metronidazole was reduced to hydrophilic aminoimidazole under hypoxia conditions and further promoted radiotherapy sensitization. The results of CCK-8 assays, Live/Dead assays, γ-H2AX immunofluorescence indicated that metronidazole-modified Au@BSA nanocomposites (NCs) exhibited excellent antitumor effects. The in vivo antitumor tests further showed an inhibition rate of 100%. These results demonstrated that the NCs successfully enhanced radiotherapy efficacy by the dual sensitization strategy. Overall, we believe this multimodal radiosensitizing nanocomplex can significantly inhibit tumor growth and metastasis, with their hypoxia-oriented characteristics ensuring a higher efficacy and safety.
