The bioelectronic tongues based on taste receptors have been emerging with human-like taste perception. However, the practical applications of the receptor-based biosensors were restricted by their narrow and low dynamic ranges. Here, a novel immobilization strategy based on [email protected] /Ti 3 C 2 MXene was developed to immobilize the umami ligand binding domain (T1R1-VFT), to fabricate an umami biosensor for umami substances detection. Through the synergic effect of [email protected] and Ti 3 C 2 MXene, the capacity to load T1R1-VFT was effectively increased, and the response signal was also amplified by approximately 3 times. The proposed biosensor showed an ultrawide dynamic range of 10 −11 –10 −3 M, and a high upper limit of detection, which was closer to the human taste threshold and suitable for detecting foods rich in umami substances. Additionally, the biosensor was successfully applied to detect real samples and analyze the synergistic effects of binary umami substances.

A novel electrochemical immunoassay based on nanobody heptamer for ultrasensitive detection of alpha fetoprotein (AFP) is proposed. First, AFP heptamer fusion protein (A1-C4bp α) is prepared via fusing the AFP-specific nanobody (A1) with the C-terminal fragment of C4-binding protein (C4bp α). Then A1-C4bp α heptamer with higher affinity is used as the molecule recognizing probe to capture numerous the AFP, increasing the sensitivity of the immunosensor. Moreover, AuNPs decorated zeolitic imidazolate framework ( [email protected] ) with large surface area, and abundant binding sites serves an ideal nanocarrier to increase heptamer loading. Multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNTs) with excellent electrical conductivity was immobilized on glassy carbon electrode (GCE) to enhance electrochemical signals. The coupling between the [email protected] @MWCNTs and heptamer technologies constructed an ultrasensitive and specific immunosensor for AFP detection in the range of 0.1 to 10 5 pg mL −1 with a lower detection limit of 0.033 pg mL −1 . The as-prepared electrochemical sensing exhibited excellent performance and could be employed to determine AFP with satisfactory results in actual serum samples, suggesting that the proposed strategy for nanobody multimerization provides an alternative scheme for enhancing sensitivity in important biomarkers detection.

High efficiency and spatio-temporal control remains a challenge for multi-modal synergistic cancer therapy. Herein, based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and zeolite-like imidazole skeleton material (ZIF-8), a spatio-temporal controllable photothermal/ chemical dynamic/ chemotherapy three modal synergistic anti-tumor nano-carrier (HAZD) was developed. HAZD has a size of 128.75 ± 11.86 nm, a drug loading ratio of 21.5 ± 2.2% and an encapsulation efficiency of 71.8 ± 1.7%. Stability, acid responsive release character, outstanding catalytic ability to generate ROS, relatively high thermal conversion efficiency up to 62.38% and spatio-temporal controllable abilities are also found within this nano-carrier. Furthermore, HAZD performed good antitumor ability in vivo with the comprehensive effects of photothermal/ chemical dynamic/ chemotherapy. The tumor growth inhibition value is 97.1% within 12 days, indicating its great potential in multi-modal synergistic cancer therapy. Statement of Significance : Cancer remains one of the major culprits that seriously harm human health currently. With the development of materials and nanotechnology, great improvements have been made in multimodal anti-tumor strategies. However, temporal- and spatial-controllable multi-modal synergistic nanocarriers are urgently awaited for efficient and low-toxicity tumor therapy. This article proposes a spatio-temporally controllable three-modal anti-tumor strategy and designs an anti-tumor drug delivery system based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and zeolite-like imidazole skeleton material (ZIF-8), which shows acid-responsive release characteristics, catalytic ability to generate ROS, relatively high thermal conversion efficiency up to 62.38%, as well as spatio-temporal controllable abilities. Moreover, it demonstrates outstanding anti-tumor ability, with a tumor growth inhibition value of 97.1% within 12 days, revealing its significant potential for future personalized and precise anti-tumor treatments.

An electrochemical immunosensor was fabricated to identify CA15-3, a biomarker for breast cancer (BC). A composite sensor substrate made of “zeolitic imidazolate framework-8” (ZIF-8) and “reduced graphene oxide” (rGO) was chosen and its conductivity was further improved by the addition of chitosan (CS)-doped gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The CS@AuNPs are able to conjugate with antibodies via the strong Au-S interaction, which offers multiple active sites for antibody immobilization and enhances the sensor performance. This immunosensor is capable of ultrasensitive detection of CA15-3 by specific antigen–antibody –interactions. In healthy people, normal serum CA15-3 is up to 25 U/mL. Under optimized experimental conditions, the alteration in the signal intensity measured by the sensor was related to the CA15-3 activity. The quantitative relationship was linear over 0.001–400 U/mL with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.0031 U/mL at a “signal-to-noise ratio” (S/N) of 3 and a “correlation coefficient” (r2) of 0.9983. The developed immunosensor showed great accuracy, stability, and selectivity, and was able to detect CA15-3 in human serum samples. These results validate its potential as a reliable analytical platform for BC diagnosis and early clinical screening.
