The expression levels of glycans on the surfaces of cancer and normal cells show different, however, this difference is not noticeable enough to distinguish them directly. So, herein, based on the targeted molecular recognition of the glycans on cell surfaces by 4-mercaptophenyl boronic acid (MPBA), a novel surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) nanoprobe (glucose-MPBA@AgNPs) was prepared by inducing...
Metal-organic framework derived hierarchical bayberry-like Ni@carbon hollow nanosphere/reduced graphene oxide (Ni@CHS/rGO) hybrid was synthesized by combining a simple solvothermal reaction with a further annealing treatment. 3D hierarchical bayberry-like Ni@CHS/rGO hybrid not only offered a continuous highly conductive Ni metal and graphene matrix to facilitate the charge transfer, but also allowed...
An extended one-step Stőber method was utilized for the preparation of core@shell spheres, which was made up of a thin layer of resorcinol-formaldehyde (RF) and a silica core. After the carbonization and template-removal process, hollow porous carbon spheres (HPCSs) were synthesized. The structure of HPCSs was characterized by scanning/transmission electron microscopy and N2 adsorption/desorption...
This work describes a novel electrochemiluminescence aptasensor for highly sensitive detection of platelet-derived growth factor BB (PDGF-BB) using aptamer functionalized CdS quantum dots–polyamidoamine as probe (CdS QDs–PAMAM–Apt). CdS QDs–PAMAM nanocomposites were synthesized by one-pot synthesis in methanol. The prepared nanocomposites were linked with the NH2–aptamer 2 (Apt2) of PDGF-BB to form...
Breast cancer is the most common type of malignant tumor in women. Recently, it has been shown that detection of breast cancer tumor cells outside the primitive tumor is an effective early diagnosis with great prognostic and clinical utility. For this purpose, we developed a signal-on fluorescence aptasensor for label-free, facile and sensitive detection of MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Due to target–aptamer...
A sandwich-type luminol electrochemiluminescence (ECL) aptasensor for highly sensitive and selective detection of platelet-derived growth factor BB (PDGF-BB) is fabricated. For this proposed ECL aptasensor, a multilayered AuNPs-electrochemically reduced graphene (AuNPs-EG) nanocomposite film was formed on the GCE surface as the base of the aptasensor through a co-electrodeposition method. The AuNPs-EG...
Intracellular pH plays a pivotal role in various biological processes. In eukaryotic cells, lysosomes contain numerous enzymes and proteins exhibiting a variety of activities and functions at acidic pH (4.5–5.5), and abnormal variation in the lysosomal pH causes defects in lysosomal function. Thus, it is important to investigate lysosomal pH in living cells to understand its physiological and pathological...
A strategy for suspected-target screening of pesticide residues in complicated matrices was exploited using gas chromatography in combination with hybrid quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC–QTOF MS). The screening workflow followed three key steps of, initial detection, preliminary identification, and final confirmation. The initial detection of components in a matrix was done by a high...
Development of fluorescent probes for Hg 2+ has become a hot topic in modern chemical research due to its high toxicity. In this paper, we for the first time report the synthesis and application of a thioether spirocyclic rhodamine B derivative (TR) as an efficient fluorescent probe for Hg 2+ . TR was synthesized using a simple procedure under mild condition. By employing a thioether...
Fluorophore-labeled bioprobes are the key for fluorescent-labeled imaging technology. In the present work, mouse liver hepatoma cell line BNL 1ME A.7R.1 (MEAR)-specific ssDNA aptamer TLS9a was used to fabricate quantum dot-labeled aptamer bioprobe (QD-Apt), which was obtained by conjugating streptavidin-modified quantum dots (SA-QDs) with biotin-derived aptamer via the interaction between biotin and...
In this article, the poly-calcon carboxylic acid (poly-CCA) film modified electrode was prepared by cyclic voltammetry (CV). Then, an electrochemical DNA biosensor was developed for detection of PML/RARA fusion gene in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) by using 18-mer single-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid as the capture probe. The capture probe was covalently attached through free amines on the DNA...
Ultra-performance liquid chromatography–quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC–Q-TOF-MS) is an effective technique for analysis of complex samples with offering rapid, efficient separation in combination with accurate mass measurement and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). This paper exploits this technique to identify the alkaloids in corydalis yanhusuo, an important antalgic Traditional...
A very sensitive electroanalytical method was employed to determine bergenin in phosphate buffer with a pH of 6.0, bergenin was accumulated at a 4-(2-pyridylazo)-resorcinol (PAR) polymer film modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface under the condition of open-circuit. In the following anodic sweep from −0.4 to 0.8V, bergenin adsorbed at the PAR polymer film modified electrode surface, was oxidized...
