In an effort to achieve high sensitive and selective detection of pesticide residues, numerous nanomaterial-based aptasensors are currently being developed for acetamiprid analysis. Recently, aptamers as a potent alternative of antibodies are used in biosensing platforms. There is tremendous interest in utilizing of nanomaterial as basic building blocks and signaling elements in aptasensors. The nanomaterials...
Muscovy duck parvovirus (MDPV) causes high mortality and morbidity in ducks. This study investigated a novel aptamer-based, label-free aptasensor detection of MDPV. In this study, we developed an ssDNA aptamer using the filtration partition and lambda exonuclease method with an affinity-based monitor and counter-screening process. After 15 rounds of SELEX (systematic evolution of ligands by exponential...
In this work, magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) were modified with aptamer of tetrodotoxin (TTX) to form Fe3O4/aptamer complex. The self-assembling of carbon dots (CDs) and the aptamer generated Fe3O4/aptamer/CDs nanocomposites. The nanocomposites exhibited down-conversion fluorescence and up-conversion fluorescence (UCF) emissions simultaneously. When excited at a wavelength of 780nm, the UCF (peaked...
Limitations of Systematic Evolution of Ligands by Exponential Enrichment (SELEX) and related methods that depend upon combinatorial oligonucleotide libraries have hindered progress in this area. Our laboratory has introduced a new approach to aptamer discovery that uses oligonucleotides with sequences drawn from the human genome to capture proteins from biological samples. Specifically, we have focused...
In most aptamer based stimulus response mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) systems, the aptamer is modified on the MSN via electrostatic interaction, however leakage might exist after a certain time in the system and hence the stability is not good. In this study, the pores of MSN were capped by aptamer through click chemistry reaction for the first time and the system was then employed to develop...
Chlorpyrifos is a commonly used organophosphorus pesticide in agriculture. However, its neurotoxicity poses a huge threat to human health. To detect trace amounts of chlorpyrifos, we herein developed a regenerative electrochemical aptasensor for the sensitive detection of chlorpyrifos. The nanocomposite consisting of copper oxide nanoflowers (CuO NFs) and carboxyl-functionalized single walled carbon...
Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is one of highly toxic mycotoxins and a known human carcinogen. The frequent contamination of AFB1 in food products and large health risk of AFB1 have raised global concerns. Sensitive detection of AFB1 is of vital importance and highly demanded. Herein, we reported a competitive horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-linked aptamer assay for AFB1, combining the advantages of aptamer for...
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, and approximately 85% are diagnosed as non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, efficient detection and diagnosis of NSCLC at early stage is still challenging. In this work, we developed a simple, ultrasensitive and high selective strategy for A549 human NSCLC cells detection based on combining the reorganization property of...
Osteosarcoma (OS) is one of most malignant bone tumors in early adolescence, which is a highly metastatic cancer and pulmonary metastasis is the most common cause of death. Thus, the development of efficient approaches to discover potential compounds that target metastasis of OS remains a topic of considerable interest. In this study, subtractive Cell-SELEX was performed to screen OS metastasis specific...
Herein, we developed a rapid and sensitive aptamers-based sandwich assay in microfluidic devices based on multivalent aptasensor array (MAA) chip and silver aggregated amplification (SAA) strategy for the detection of two biomarkers. Firstly, aptamers-modified silver nanoparticles were dotted in array to form MAA chip. Then PDMS was used to form a microfluidic device. After that, target proteins and...
In this paper, an amplified fluorescence polarization (FP) aptasensor based on magnetic nanoparticles @polydopamine (MNP@PDA) was innovatively developed for sensitive detection of recombinant human erythropoietin-alpha(rHuEPO-α). The amplified FP signal was due to the large mass of protein and MNP@PDA. And this assay can be utilized for target separation or recycling based on the magnetic property...
The discovery of aptamers for aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), one of toxic carcinogens, has allowed to develop aptamer-based sensors and assays for aflatoxin. In this work, we reported a direct fluorescence anisotropy (FA) assay for investigation of aptamer-AFB1 binding and detection of AFB1 with the aptamer having single tetramethylrhodamine (TMR) label on a specific site. From a series of labeling sites of...
We describe a novel biosensing strategy for sensitive detection of methylamphetamine (MAMP) based on surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) by the mediation of spacing between 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (4-MBA) labeled Au@Ag core-shell nanoparticles (Au@Ag). To achieve a favorable SERS substrate, Au@Ag shell-core nanoparticle was synthesized with seeds growth method and well characterized by SEM, TEM...
