Carbon-coated cadmium sulfide rose-like nanostructures (CdS@C NRs) were prepared via a facile solvothermal approach and used as the photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensing platform for the integration of functional biomolecules. Based on this, a novel "signal-off" PEC aptasensor mediated by enzymatic amplification was proposed for the sensitive and selective detection of 17β-estradiol (E2). In the presence of E2, alkaline phosphatase-modified aptamer (ALP-apta) were released from the electrode surface through the specific recognition with E2, which caused the negative effect on PEC response due to the decrease of ascorbic acid (AA) produced by the ALP in situ enzymatic catalysis. The developed PEC aptasensor for detection of E2 exhibited a wide linear range of 1.0-250 nM, with the low detection limit of 0.37 nM. This work provides novel insight into the design of potential phoelectroactive materials and the application of signal amplification strategy in environmental analysis field.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a major pathogen posing significant challenges to global public health, making early diagnosis critical for preventing severe liver diseases. We previously developed a fluorescent biosensor named PAM-dependent dsDNA Target-activated Cas12f1 Trans Reporter (PDTCTR). However, its reliance on specialized fluorescence equipment and lack of visual readout limited its application in resource-limited settings.

Single-cell multi-dimensional analysis enables more profound biological insight, providing a comprehensive understanding of cell physiological processes. Due to limited cellular contents, the lack of protein and metabolite amplification ability, and the complex cytoplasmic environment, the simultaneous analysis of intracellular proteins and metabolites remains challenging. Herein, we proposed a multi-dimensional bio mass cytometry platform characterized by protein signal conversion and amplification through an orthogonal exogenous enzymatic reaction.

Synthesis of chemically diverse heterocyclic scaffolds in DNA-encoded libraries is highly demanded. We herein reported a convenient one-pot multi-component on-DNA synthetic strategy to afford multi-substituted 2,3-dihydrofuran scaffolds pyridinium ylide-mediated cyclization. This reaction exhibited modest to excellent conversions for a broad range of DNA-conjugated aldehydes, β-ketonitriles and pyridinium salts under mild reaction conditions.

Accurate identification and quantification of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) can help elucidate its function in gene expression and disease pathogenesis. Current 5hmC analysis methods still present challenges, especially for clinical applications, such as having a risk of false-positive results and a lack of sufficient sensitivity. Herein, a 5hmC quantification method for fragment-specific DNA sequences with extreme specificity, high sensitivity, and clinical applicability was established using a quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR)-based workflow through the combination of enzymatic digestion and biological deamination strategy (EDD-5hmC assay).

Dengue virus (DENV) is an important arthropod-borne viral disease, with four antigenically and genetically diverse serotypes (DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, and DENV-4). Timely and accurate diagnosis of dengue virus serotypes is crucial for the management of outbreaks. This study focussed on the development of a RT-PCR based lateral flow strip assay to detect DENV serotypes in a dual detection manner without using gel electrophoresis.
