A controllable flower-like Pt-graphene oxide (PtNF-GO) architecture was synthesized through layer-by-layer electrostatic self-assembly. Hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) micelles were employed as the template and Pt nanoflowers with different sizes were selectively synthesized by controlling the dissolved K2PtCl4 precursor and CTAC amounts in the reaction system. The prepared PtNF-GO was applied for DNA damage biomarker 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) biosensing research. With the distinctive flower-like morphology of PtNFs and high electrical conductivity of GO, the PtNF-GO architecture shows excellent electrochemical biosensing performance towards the oxidation of 8-OHdG. A very low detection limit of 0.025 nM is obtained. Moreover, the fabricated PtNF-GO was used for the detection of 8-OHdG generated from the damaged DNA sample, which can be used to evaluate and confirm the mechanism of DNA damage, and it is of great importance in gene diagnosis, clinical and life sciences.

We report a label-free ultrasensitive and selective strategy for Pb(II) assay by a multifunctional DNA probe (MDP)-mediated rolling-circle amplified synthesis of the G-quadruplexes. The MDP acted as a target recognition probe, a catalytic DNAzyme and a primer of rolling-circle amplification (RCA). The presence of Pb(II) can induce the conformational switching of the MDP, resulting in the cleavage of the S-DNA in the MDP to release an E-DNA. The released E-DNA then initiated a RCA reaction with a reasonably devised padlock DNA template to produce an accumulated amount of repeated sequences. The RCA product in the present work was designed as a G-rich sequence, which could fold into thousands of G-quadruplex units. The G-quadruplex formed by RCA can specifically bind to NMM to result in an amplified fluorescence signal. Through these cascade amplifications, Pb(II) ions can be detected at as low as 94.29 pM, which is much lower than those reported in related literature. We expect that this amplification strategy might be helpful in the design of a highly sensitive analytical platform for wide application in environmental and biomedical fields.

Multilayered reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was functionalized with amino groups by treatment with nitrogen plasma. Raman spectroscopy showed plasma treatment not to substantially alter the chemical structure of rGO and that a wide range of functional nitrogen groups is evenly incorporated into the carbon lattice. The amino-modified rGO was used to design an electrochemical biosensor in which a DNAzyme, substrate DNA and Pb(II) and Hg(II) binding DNA were immobilized on the amino-rGO placed on a gold electrode. The high concentration of amino groups and the rough surface of the rGO favor DNA immobilization. Heavy metal ions are bound to the surface via specific interaction between DNA and the two ions which are detected by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy at a potential of 0.2 V (vs. Ag/AgCl). The detection limits for Pb(II) and Hg(II) are as low as 7.8 and 5.4 pM, respectively, and the analytical ranges extend from 0.01 to 100 nM. The sensor is highly specific and stable and therefore represents a highly promising tool for use in environmental monitoring.
A nanofilm of reduced graphene oxide was first modified with amino groups by treatment with nitrogen plasma. A special DNA was then anchored to the surface to obtain a biosensor for simultaneous detection of Pb(II) and Hg(II). The sensor has detection limits as low as 7.8 and 5.4 pM and is highly selective.

A magnetically responsive composite was prepared for improved solid-phase extraction of salmon sperm DNA sodium salt. It consists of chitosan-modified Fe 3 O 4 -magnetized multi-walled carbon nanotubes coated with a poly(ethylene glycol) based deep eutectic solvent. The sorbent was characterized by X-ray diffraction, vibrating sample magnetometry, Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, thermogravimetric analysis and transmission electron microscopy. The effects of the concentration of DNA, ionic strength, pH value, temperature and extraction time on extraction performance were optimized. Compared to plain Fe 3 O 4 , the new sorbent displays a superior DNA extraction capacity of 178 mg·g −1 . It also displays favorable selectivity for DNA over bovine hemoglobin. Regeneration studies show that (a) 79% of DNA can be eluted from loaded sorbent by using 1 M NaCl, and that (b) the conformation of DNA remains unchanged as evidenced by CD spectra. The sorbent can be recycled six times without significant loss of extraction capacity. It was applied to the extraction of DNA from bovine whole blood prior to DNA quantitation by agarose gel electrophoresis. The results show this new sorbent to be a viable material for separation of DNA that excels by its low cost, high loading capacity and ease of regeneration.
Chitosan (CS)-modified magnetic multi-walled carbon nanotubes were coated with a poly(ethylene glycol)-based deep eutectic solvent (DES) to obtain a new material (referred to as DES-mCS/MWCNTs) for solid-phase extraction of DNA. It exhibits excellent magnetic response, high loading capacity and good reusability.

A novel sandwich-hybridization assay for simultaneous electrochemical detection of multiple DNA targets related to human immune deficiency virus (HIV) and tuberculosis (TB) was developed based on the different quantum dots-PowerVision TM polymer nanotracers. The polymer nanotracers were respectively fabricated by immobilizing SH-labeled oligonucleotides (s-HIV or s-TB), which can partially hybrid with virus DNA (HIV or TB), on gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) and then modified with PowerVision TM (PV) polymer-encapsulated quantum dots (CdS or PbS) as signal tags. PV is a dendrimer enzyme linked polymer, which can immobilize abundant QDs to amplify the stripping voltammetry signals from the metal ions (Pb or Cd). The capture probes were prepared through the immobilization of SH-labeled oligonucleotides, which can complementary with HIV and TB DNA, on the magnetic Fe 3 O 4 @Au (GMPs) beads. After sandwich-hybridization, the polymer nanotracers together with HIV and TB DNA targets were simultaneously introduced onto the surface of GMPs. Then the two encoding metal ions (Cd 2+ and Pb 2+ ) were used to differentiate two viruses DNA due to the different subsequent anodic stripping voltammetric peaks at −0.84 V (Cd) and −0.61 V (Pb). Because of the excellent signal amplification of the polymer nanotracers and the great specificity of DNA targets, this assay could detect targets DNA as low as 0.2 femtomolar and exhibited excellent selectivity with the dynamitic range from 0.5 fM to 500 pM. Those results demonstrated that this electrochemical coding assay has great potential in applications for screening more viruses DNA while changing the probes.

A novel transition metal coordination polymer [Co 3 (C 14 H 8 NO 4 Cl) 4 (CH 3 OH) 4 ·4CH 3 OH] n with Schiff base (C 14 H 8 NO 4 Cl: 4-chloroanthranilic acid- 2,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde) was synthesized using 4-chloroanthranilic acid, 2,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde and cobalt(II) acetate as source, and its structure was characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, 1 H NMR and single crystal X-ray diffraction. X-ray crystallography shows that every cobalt atom is six-coordinated. Two cobalt atoms on the two sides are respective coordinated with two nitrogen atoms from –C=N–, two carboxylic oxygen atoms and two hydroxyl oxygen atoms in different ligands, while the cobalt atom in the middle links two ligands on the side through two carboxylic oxygen atoms and coordinates with four oxygen atoms of methanol, forming a three-nuclear Co(II) complex. The complex forms a two-dimensional layer structure through O–H···O intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The interaction of the Co(II) complex with calf-thymus DNA (CT-DNA) was investigated by UV absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence emission spectroscopy, viscosity and cyclic voltammetry. All measurements revealed that the Co(II) complex binds to DNA via a intercalative mode.

A novel DNA-modified nanocomposite of three-dimensional reduced graphene oxide and chitosan particles (CS@3D-rGO@DNA) was prepared by one-step method and used as a new electrochemical biosensing strategy to detect Hg 2+ in drinking water . This biosensor was fabricated by the chemical coordination of T-Hg 2+ -T between the T-rich oligonucleotide strands contained in the as-prepared CS@3D-rGO@DNA nanocomposite and Hg 2+ , thereby varying the electrochemical signals. The developed electrochemical biosensor exhibited high sensitivity toward the determination of Hg 2+ with a low detection limit of 0.016 nM, ranging from 0.1 nM to 10 nM. This novel biosensor also showed high selectivity, good stability, and repeatability. Hence, this proposed CS@3D-rGO@DNA-based electrochemical strategy is feasible and may offer a simple, rapid, cost-effective, highly selective, and sensitive method for Hg 2+ quantification.

A label-free electrochemical DNA detection strategy based on self-assembled α-Fe 2 O 3 /Fe 3 O 4 nanosheets with PNA-DNA hybridization process was developed for ultrasensitive detection of APOE ε4 gene, one of the most robust genetic risks for Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). In this work, magnetic α-Fe 2 O 3 /Fe 3 O 4 heterogeneous nanosheets were prepared by hydrothermal-calcined reduction method and loaded with Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) on their surfaces. The magnetic α-Fe 2 O 3 /Fe 3 O 4 @Au nanocomposites significantly enhanced the electrochemical response as a signal amplification matrix and were able to bind to the magnetic glassy carbon electrode (MGCE) surface by magnetic self-assembly. Moreover, owing to the high specificity and stable binding capacity of PNA with respect to the target DNA, the biosensor not only enabled accurate (the limit of detection was estimated to be 0.147 pM) and rapid detection of the APOE ε4 gene, but also exhibited excellent specificity, stability and regeneration capability. Additional, the satisfactory recoveries were also obtained in real samples of human serum, ranging from 92.83 % to 106.22 % with relative standard deviation (RSD) between 0.25 % and 1.85 %. The results possessed important reference value for exploring the application of DNA biosensor technology in the diagnosis of APOE gene mutation.

In this investigation, six new metal complexes with 2-(pyridin-2-yl)benzo[d]imidazole (bpm) were synthesized and analyzed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), including catena-bis[(µ-2,2-bis(4-carobxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane)-(2-(pyidin-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole)-aqua-zinc] (1), catena-[(µ-2,2-bis(4-carobxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane)-(2-(pyidin-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole)-aqua-cadmium] (2), aqua-[2,2-bis(4-carobxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane]-bis[2-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole]-manganese (3), μ-[2-nitrobenzene-1,4-dicarboxylato]-μ-[2-nitrobenzene-1,4-dicarboxylato]-bis[2-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole]-di-zinc (4), catena-[bis(µ-2-nitrobenzene-1,4-dicarboxylato)-diaqua-bis(2-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole)-di-cadmium] (5), aqua-[pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylato]-[2-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole]-copper hydrate (6) (H2hfipbb = 2,2-bis(4-carboxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane, H2nbdc acid = Nitroterephthalic acid, and H2pda = 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid). Complex 1 crystallized in a monoclinic system with space group P21/n; 2 crystallized in a monoclinic system with space group C2/c; 3 crystallized in an orthorhombic system with space group Pna21; 5 crystallized in a monoclinic system with space group P21/c; 4 and 6 crystallized in triclinic systems with space group P-1. The DNA-binding modes of the complexes were investigated by several analysis methods (e.g. viscosity analysis, circular dichroism spectroscopy, fluorescent spectroscopic analysis, as well as UV spectroscopic analysis). Complexes 1-6 bind to calf thymus DNA via an intercalative mode. The results of this study provide insights into the mechanism of DNA binding and provide a basis for rationally designing new powerful reagents for DNA detection and targeting.

Epigenetic modifications and spatial proximities of nucleic acids and proteins play important roles in regulating physiological processes and disease progression. Currently available cell imaging methods, such as fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and immunofluorescence, struggle to detect low-abundance modifications and their spatial proximities. Here we describe a step-by-step protocol for three DNA-encoded amplifying FISH-based imaging strategies to overcome these challenges for varying applications: base-encoded amplifying FISH (BEA-FISH), pairwise proximity-differentiated amplifying FISH (PPDA-FISH) and cellular macromolecules-tethered DNA walking indexing (Cell-TALKING). They all use the similar core principle of DNA-encoded amplification, which transforms different nonsequence molecular features into unique DNA barcodes for in situ rolling circle amplification and FISH analysis. This involves three key reactions in fixed cell samples: target labeling, DNA encoding and rolling circle amplification imaging. Using this protocol, these three imaging strategies achieve in situ counting of low-abundance modifications alone, the pairwise proximity-differentiated visualization of two modifications and the exploration of multiple modifications around one protein (one-to-many proximity), respectively. Low-abundance modifications, including 5-hydroxymethylcytosine, 5-formylcytosine, 5-hydroxymethyluracil and 5-formyluracil, are clearly visualized in single cells. Various combinatorial patterns of nucleic acid modifications and/or histone modifications are found. The whole protocol takes ~2–4 d to complete, depending on different imaging applications.

Roxithromycin (ROX) is an effective antibiotic, but its prolonged administration may lead to hepatotoxicity and other side effects. To address this concern, the present study introduced a novel strategy that integrated a CHA-mediated dual-end DNA walker with hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) combined with Au nanoparticles (NPs) as efficient SERS substrates, enabling highly sensitive detection of ROX in food. Notably, HOF possessed a large specific surface area and strong adsorption properties that making it excellent platforms for the in-situ synthesis of abundant Au NPs and contributed to robust and uniform SERS signals. When ROX was present, it can trigger the activation of CHA and resulting the formation of a dual-end DNAzyme structure. Meanwhile, under the catalytic action of Mg 2+ , DNAzyme initiated the DNA walker mechanism and generated a substantial amount of Output DNA. Moreover, the Au@4-NTP@Ag core-shell structure generated numerous SERS “hot spots” and combined with the signal-amplifying capability of HOF@Au, leading to a remarkable improvement in SERS sensitivity. Based on this mechanism, the developed sensor employs a “signal-on” strategy for ultra-sensitive detection of ROX, achieving a detection range from 1.0 × 10 −6 to 1.0 × 10 −13 mol/L with a detection limit of 3.72 × 10 −14 mol/L. Furthermore, the method had been successfully applied to the detection of ROX in real food samples, including milk and honey, offering a promising and innovative framework for the development of next-generation SERS biosensors. This approach demonstrated significant potential for highly selective and sensitive antibiotic monitoring in food safety applications.

Wild animals, as a vital component of our natural world, serve a crucial role in preserving ecological equilibrium and biodiversity. By delving into the genetic constitution of wild animal populations, the evolutionary history, genetic diversity, and adaptation mechanisms could be explored, thereby informing conservation strategies and safeguarding the future of these species. In order to study the genetic information of wild animals, it is necessary to extract high purity and high concentration of wild animal genomic DNA. In this work, a hydrophobic magnetic deep eutectic solvent (HMDES) based vortexed extraction was developed for the extraction of genomic DNA from leopard cat ( Prionailurus bengalensis ), hairy-crowned deer ( Elaphodus cephalophus ) and muntjac ( Muntiacus reevesi ) muscle tissue, respectively. Extraction conditions like the pH value, extraction time, temperature and the amount of HMDES used were optimized by single-factor experiments. Under the optimized condition, genomic DNA could be selectively extracted from the three animal tissues. The limits of detection (LOD) and limits of quantification (LOQ) of the proposed method were 2.86 ng/μL and 8.66 ng/μL, respectively. Meanwhile, the relative standard deviation (RSD) of the method precision and repeatability were 1.64 % and 5.57 % at 20 ng/μL, showing the method has good precision and repeatability. After extraction, the DNA extracted into the HMDES droplets can be quickly recovered and the HMDES can be recycled and reused. The method proposed is a fast, environmental-friendly and high efficient extraction strategy for purification and enrichment of genomic DNA from leopard cat, hairy-crowned deer and muntjac tissues.
