Salmonellais widespread in nature and poses a significant threat to human health and safety. Phage is considered as a new tool for the control of food-borne pathogens. In this study,Salmonellaphage L66 (phage L66) was isolated from sewage by usingSalmonellaTyphimurium ATCC 14028 as the host bacterium, and its basic properties were obtained by biological and bioinformatics analysis. Phage L66 had a broad host spectrum, with an optimal infection complex of 0.1 and an optimal adsorption rate of 90.06%. It also exhibited thermal stability between 30 °C~60 °C and pH stability pH from 3 to 12, and the average lysis amount was 46 PFU/cell. The genome sequence analysis showed that the genome length of phage L66 was 157,675 bp and the average GC content was 46.13%. It was predicted to contain 209 genes, 97 of which were annotated with known functions based on the evolutionary analysis, and phage L66 was attributed to theKuttervirusgenus. Subsequently, an electrochemical sensor using phage L66 as a recognition factor was developed and the working electrode GDE-AuNPs-MPA-Phage L66 was prepared by layer-by-layer assembly for the detection ofSalmonella. The slope of the impedance was 0.9985 within the scope from 20 to 2 × 107CFU/mL of bacterial concentration. The minimum detection limit of the method was 13 CFU/mL, and the average spiked recovery rate was 102.3% with a relative standard deviation of 5.16%. The specificity and stability of this sensor were excellent, and it can be applied for the rapid detection ofSalmonellain various foods.

A highly sensitive and reproducible multiplex mycotoxin SERS array has been established based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)-loaded inverse opal silica photonic crystal microsphere (SIPCM). Three types of Raman nanotags were synthesized by covalently grafting different antibodies and non-covalently loading different organic dyes onto the AuNPs for coding corresponding mycotoxins. To enhance Raman signal, AuNPs were loaded on the surface of SIPCM to create hot-spots once the Raman nanotags came closely. The maximal electric field enhancing effect in SIPCM with AuNP dimer could reach to 8 times. The assay principle was based on the competition immunoassay between the mycotoxins in sample and the artificial antigens immobilized on the surface of SIPCM. The three Raman nanotags could be integrated into an array to qualitatively and quantitatively detect multiplex mycotoxins in a sample. Such SERS-based assay displayed wide linear detection ranges of 0.001–10 ng/mL for ochratoxin A (OTA), 0.001–10 ng/mL for fumonisin B 1 (FB 1 ), and 0.1–1000 ng/mL for deoxynivalenol (DON), and low limits of detection (LOD) of 2.46 pg/mL for OTA, 0.20 pg/mL for FB 1 , and 68.98 pg/mL for DON. The recovery rates of the new method were measured to be 77.68–104.69% for OTA, 76.39–117.73% for FB 1 , and 70.95–113.16% for DON, in agreement with that of the classical ELISA method. The SERS-based method shows obvious advantages over fluorescence label or enzyme catalytic chemiluminescence methods , having a great application potential in rapidly screening multiplex mycotoxins in real samples.

In this work, a novel sensor based on gold nanoparticle-modified zirconium-metal-organic frameworks (MOF-801) and carboxyl-functionalized carbon nanotube (MWCNT-COOH) composite material was built successfully for electrochemical detection of guanine and adenine in DNA sample, which exhibits diverse advantages such as fast, convenience and high efficiency. Guanine and adenine were detected by the cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). Under the optimal conditions, MOF-801/MWCNT-COOH/ AuNPs/GCE delivered linear DPV responses to guanine in the range of 0.8 ~ 60, 60 ~ 180 μM and the adenine in the range of 0.8 ~ 60, 60 ~ 180 μM with the low detection limit of 0.09 μM for guanine and 0.08 μM for adenine, respectively. The advantages of this method include simplicity, rapidity, high sensitivity, good selectivity as well as low cost. The modified GCE was successfully applied to the analysis of guanine and adenine in DNA samples.

In this study, a microcapsule, with gold nanoparticles dispersed on enlarged halloysite nanotube (HNTs) was prepared for encapsulating ionic liquid 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluormethylsulfonyl)imide ([HMIm][NTf 2 ]). The thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of the PBO/PTFE fabric/phenolic resin composite liner improved after incorporating [HMIm][NTf 2 ]@HNTs/Au microcapsules. Pin-on-disk wear tests (55 MPa and 0.8 m/s for 120 min) demonstrated that the wear rate decreased from 9.4 × 10 −15 m 3 /(N⋅m) to 3.9 × 10 −15 m 3 /(N⋅m) when the filler content up to 2.0 wt% was added to a pure composites. This was attributed to a 40 nm adaptive tribofilm constructed on the counterpart surface due to filler.

The abnormal changes of biothiols are directly related to health condition of human body, and the effective identification and quantification of biothiols is of great significance for screening and diagnosis of disease. This study described the development of a pH-regulated colorimetric sensor array for discrimination of five kinds of biothiols including cysteine (Cys), glutathione (GSH), homocysteine (Hcy), cysteamine (CA) and N-acetylcysteine (NAC). The proposed sensor array was established using 5-nm- and 20-nm-sized β -cyclodextrin-functionalized gold nanoparticles ( β -CD@AuNPs) as nonspecific receptor and signal transduction elements. Due to the different binding affinity between biothiols and β -CD@AuNPs in various pH environments, the different aggregation behaviors of nanoparticles produced unique colorimetric response patterns, which were able to be distinguished by bare eyes and UV–vis spectrophotometer. Accordingly, principal component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) were employed for pattern recognition and generated a clustering map for a clear differentiation of biothiols at the level of μmol/L. Furthermore, it can be proved that the method was successfully applied to the analysis of biothiols in human urine samples.

Ciprofloxacin hydrochloride is widely used to treat animal diseases. However, its chronic abuse has caused severe accumulation in animal-derived foods , which has seriously damaged human health. Thus, in this study, a novel molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor (MIES) was designed for selective and ultra-sensitive detection of ciprofloxacin hydrochloride (CPFX) in milk. The sensor was based on the molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) synthesized with poly-pyrrole (PPy) as the functional monomer , AuNPs and S-CoFe-MOFs (CoFe-Metal organic frameworks coated with chitosan) as the Supporting materials , and CPFX as the template molecule. The electrochemical behavior of MIPs/S-CoFe-MOFs/AuNPs/GCE was studied by several electrochemical methods, which showed a wider detection linear range (0.05 ∼ 500 ng·mL -1 ) and lower detection limit (0.0033 ng·mL -1 ) than those in previous reports. The optimization of experiments confirmed the good selectivity and stability of the sensors----- with the milk sample recovery of 89.04∼110.26%, and the relative standard deviations (RSD) of less than 5.5%, which was close to HPLC. In conclusion, the sensor we constructed has a high selectivity and stability potential in detecting CPFX in milk.

Macrophages, innate immune cells, are key players in the maintenance of myocardial homeostasis under normal conditions and tissue repair after injury. The infiltration of macrophages into the injured heart makes them a potentially appealing vehicle for noninvasive imaging and targeted drug delivery of myocardial infarction (MI). In this study, we demonstrated the use of surface hydrolysis-designed AuNPs-zwitterionic-glucose to label macrophages and track their infiltration into isoproterenol hydrochloride (ISO)-induced MI sites noninvasively using CT . The AuNPs-zwitterionic-glucose did not affect the viability or cytokine release of macrophages and were highly taken up by these cells. The in vivo CT images were obtained on Day 4, Day 6, Day 7, and Day 9, and the attenuation was seen to increase in the heart over time compared to the Day 4 scan. In vitro analysis also confirmed the presence of macrophages around injured cardiomyocytes. Additionally, we also addressed the concern of cell tracking or merely AuNP tracking, which is the inherent problem for any form of nanoparticle-labeled cell tracking by using zwitterionic and glucose-functionalized AuNPs. The glucose coated on the surface of AuNPs-zwit-glucose will be hydrolyzed in macrophages, forming only zwitterionic protected AuNPs that cannot be taken up again by endogenous cells in vivo. This will greatly improve the accuracy and precision of imaging and target delivery. We believe this is the first study to noninvasively visualize the infiltration of macrophages into MI hearts using CT, which could be used for imaging and evaluating the possibility of macrophage-mediated delivery in infarcted hearts.

Reduced graphene oxide-gold nanoparticles nanocomposites (rGO-AuNPs) with high surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) activity was created by biomass-assisted green synthesis with Lilium casa blanca petals biomass for the first time, and its application for methylene blue (MB) degradation was explored through in-situ monitoring. Lilium casa blanca petals biomass was used as a reducing agent to reduce GO and chloroauric acid successively when carrying out rGO-AuNPs in-situ synthesis while it also acted as a capping agent. The produced rGO had oxygen-containing functional groups which had an outstanding performance in enhancing the SERS effect. Characterization results confirmed that the AuNPs were grafted onto the rGO sheet, and the mechanism study showed that total flavonoids in Lilium casa blanca petals biomass were the main biological compounds involved in the reduction. rGO-AuNPs had a high Raman enhancement factor (EF) which could reach 3.88 × 10 7 . The synthesized nanocomposite also had a good catalytic activity that could be employed as catalyst in MB degradation, and it could complete degradation within 15min. The reaction rate increased linearly with the amount of rGO-AuNPs, and the degradation could be in-situ monitored both by UV and SERS.

It is very essential and meaningful for detection and quantitation of aflatoxin in food and agricultural commodities to establish a rapid and accurate detection method. Herein, a novel electrochemical aptasensor for sensitive and selective detection of aflatoxin B 1 (AFB 1 ) was successfully constructed. The thiolated complementary strand (cDNA) of the AFB 1 aptamer (Apt) was immobilized on the surface of the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) through Au–S bond. Then Apt was attached on the surface of GCE via by specific base pairing. In the presence of AFB 1 , the Apt was detached from the electrode surface by specific recognition between the AFB 1 and Apt, forming Apt-AFB 1 conjugates in solution. The conjugates were digested by exonuclease I ( Exo I) to trigger AFB 1 recycling. Finally, DNA-AuNPs-horseradish peroxidase (DNA-AuNPs-HRP) nanoprobes was bound with cDNA on the surface of electrode by specific base pairing. HRP could catalyze the oxidation of hydroquinone (HQ) to benzoquinone (BQ) by hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) for producing a strong electrochemical signal. Under the optimized conditions, the electrochemical signals increased with increasing concentrations of AFB 1 in a range from 10 −3 ng mL −1 to 200 ng mL −1 with a low detection limit of 3.3 × 10 −4 ng mL −1 . Moreover, the aptasensor has been successfully applied for the determination of AFB 1 in peanuts and corn samples and the recoveries were 88.5 %–110.2%, which would provide a novel method for the rapid detection of AFB 1 in food samples.

Radioactive radon decays into a stable daughter product, 210 Pb, which was used as the detection target to determine the radon radiation dose in a new technique. Pb 2+ triggers DNAzyme to cleave a molecular beacon (MB), resulting in the stem–loop structure opening and forming two single DNA strands (ssDNA). The ssDNA binds to unmodified gold nanoparticles and effectively prevents their aggregation in a salt solution. The detached enzyme strands continue to complement the remaining MB to amplify the response signal. The method proposed in this study exhibited a good linear relationship for Pb 2+ and radon concentrations in the range of 6.22 × 10 2 –1.02 × 10 5 Bq h/m 3 with a detection limit of 186.48 Bq h/m 3 using an ultraviolet–visible spectrometer. In practical applications, this sensitive method can avoid radioactive damage in field testing, and the detection limit meets the national standard in China. Importantly, this simple, highly sensitive strategy uses simple equipment and has a strong anti-interference ability.

The RGO/AuNPs/CS/ZnTCPP nanocomposites were successfully prepared with reduced graphene oxide (RGO) loaded with Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) existed in chitosan (CS) and water-soluble zinc meso-tetra (4-carboxylphenyl) porphyrin (ZnTCPP) by π-π nanoassembly method and were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), 1 H NMR spectra and UV–vis absorption spectroscopy. The most important advantage of the RGO/AuNPs/CS/ZnTCPP nanocomposites was environmentally friendly. Indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode surface was modified with the RGO/AuNPs/CS/ZnTCPP nanocomposites exhibited a good photocurrent response at −0.2 V under whitelight of Xenon lamp illumination. The photocurrent response could be greatly increased by adding hydroquinone (HQ) to the solution. Electrons of ZnTCPP were excited from HOMO to LUMO by irradiating light. The photoexcited electrons injected into the RGO , and then transferred to AuNPs further to the ITO. Addition of HQ resulted in the enhanced photocurrent signal by acting as a sacrificial electron donor ; Thereby scavenged the photogenerated holes of the excited ZnTCPP and oxidized to benzoquinone (BQ). Based on the above interaction, detection of HQ was developed by a novel photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensor (S/N = 3) with a linear range from 5 to 300 nmol/L (r = 0.997) and detection limit of 0.5 nmol/L. Proposed biosensor is simple, rapid and this was successfully applied for the quantification HQ in the real sample matrices.

A novel 2-step lectin-magnetic separation (LMS) method combined with gold nanoparticle (AuNPs) -based colorimetric system for specifically and quantitatively detecting S. aureus in blood samples was established. In this study, wheat germ agglutinin lectin from Triticum vulgaris (wheat) (WGA) was applied for the first time as a recognition agent in a 2-step magnetic separation method using magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) for effective and low-cost bacteria enrichment. A quantitative detection strategy based on the long dsDNA amplicons stabilized with AuNPs against salt-induced aggregation was investigated. The 2-step LMS method resulted in a high enrichment efficiency even at low concentrations (10 0 –10 2 CFU/mL) of S. aureus in pure culture and blood samples. The AuNPs-based colorimetric system was applied for quantitative detection of S. aureus with a limit of detection (LOD) at 3.5 × 10 0 CFU/mL. The complete process starting with the blood samples treatment, 2-step LMS, and AuNPs-based colorimetric detection took only 7 h. The low cost and sensitive 2-step LMS combined with AuNPs-based colorimetric detection holds considerable potential for early sepsis diagnosis.
