AI Article Synopsis

  • An electrochemical DNA biosensor has been created specifically for detecting DNA in raw milk samples, using methods like cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance for evaluation.
  • The biosensor shows high sensitivity of 3461 μA/cm per ng and a low limit of detection at 82 fg/6 µl, validated by testing both complementary and mismatched DNA sequences.
  • Characterization through field emission scanning electron microscopy showed the sensor was stable over six months, retaining 90% of its initial performance.

Article Abstract

The electrochemical DNA biosensor has been developed for the detection of in raw milk samples. The electrochemical studies of the developed biosensor was recorded by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance (EI) using methylene blue (MB) and potassium ferricyanide KFe(CN) as redox indicators. The selectivity of the developed biosensor was demonstrated using complementary and mismatch oligonucleotide sequences. The sensitivity (S) of the developed sensor was recorded as 3461 (μA/cm)/ng and limit of detection (LOD) was found to be 82 fg/6 µl with the regression coefficient ( ) 0.941 using CV. The sensor was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The electrode was found to be stable for six months, with only 10% loss in the initial CV current.

Advanced cortisol detection: A cMWCNTs-enhanced MB@Zr-MOF ratiometric electrochemical aptasensor.

Bioelectrochemistry

January 2025

School of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Capital Medical University, Beijing 100069, China; Laboratory for Clinical Medicine, Capital Medical University, Beijing 100069, China. Electronic address:

A ratiometric electrochemical aptasensor was developed for ultra-sensitive detection of cortisol using aptamer (Apt) as recognition element, methylene blue (MB) as signal probe, and zirconium metal-organic framework (Zr-MOF) as carrier loaded with abundant MB for signal amplification. The carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (cMWCNTs)-modified Au electrode showed excellent electrochemical performance to immobilize complementary DNA (cDNA) for hybridizing with MB@Zr-MOF-Apt via amide bonds. In the presence of cortisol, it would compete with cDNA for binding the Apt, resulting in the detachment of MB@Zr-MOF-Apt complex from the electrode surface, and the electrochemical signal of MB was decreased, while that of [Fe(CN)] was basically unchanged.

Detecting β-lactoglobulin (β-Lg) with high sensitivity and selectivity is an urgent requirement due to nearly 80% of milk anaphylaxis, such as respiratory tract, skin urticaria, and gastrointestinal disorders, being caused by β-Lg. An ultrasensitive β-Lg electrochemical aptasensor utilizing core-satellite gold nanoparticle@silver nanocluster (AuNPs@AgNCs) nanohybrids as electrocatalysts was developed. First, β-Lg aptamer was anchored on gold electrodes and AuNPs to obtain high selectivity.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally, necessitating the development of sensitive and minimally invasive diagnostic approaches. In this study, we present a novel diagnostic strategy by integrating dumbbell probe-mediated CRISPR/Cas13a with nicking-induced DNA cascade reaction (DP-bridged Cas13a/NDCR) for highly sensitive microRNA (miRNA) detection. Target miRNA triggers Cas13a-mediated cleavage of the dumbbell probe, releasing an intermediate strand that hybridizes with a methylene blue-labeled hairpin probe on the electrode surface.

Dysregulation of Mitochondrial Homeostasis in Cardiovascular Diseases.

Pharmaceuticals (Basel)

January 2025

Department of Cardiac Surgery, Michigan Medicine, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA.

Mitochondria dysfunction plays a central role in the development of vascular diseases as oxidative stress promotes alterations in mitochondrial morphology and function that contribute to disease progression. Redox imbalances can affect normal cellular processes including mitochondrial biogenesis, electrochemical equilibrium, and the regulation of mitochondrial DNA. In this review, we will discuss these imbalances and, in particular, the potential role of mitochondrial fusion, fission, biogenesis, and mitophagy in the context of vascular diseases and how the dysregulation of normal function might contribute to disease progression.
