This paper describes fabrication and implementation of distributed optical fiber tip biosensor probes for simultaneously measuring label-free biomolecular interactions at multiple locations. Biosensor probes at the tip of a single-mode fiber are Fabry-Perot etalons that are functionalized with a capture layer for a specific biomolecule. A coherence multiplexing method is implemented to separate data collected from distributed biosensors in a single data stream. Multiplexing is achieved by using fiber tip biosensors of varying etalon lengths with the same or different capture layers for each biosensing channel. Experiments demonstrating simultaneous multi-channel recording of protein-to-protein interaction sensorgrams with fiber tip biosensor probes are presented.

Genetically encoded tension sensors (GETSs) allow for quantifying forces experienced by intracellular proteins involved in mechanotransduction. The vast majority of GETSs are comprised of a FRET pair flanking an elastic "spring-like" domain that gradually extends in response to force. Because of ensemble averaging, the FRET signal generated by such analog sensors conceals forces that deviate from the average, and hence it is unknown if a subset of proteins experience greater magnitudes of force.

DNAzyme-based cascade networks are effective tools to achieve ultrasensitive detection of low-abundance miRNAs. However, their designs are complicated and costly, and the operation is time-consuming. Herein, a novel simple noncascade DNAzyme network is designed and its amplification effect is comparable to or even better than many cascading ones.

A fluorescent aptasensor was developed based on target-induced hairpin conformation switch coupled with nicking enzyme-assisted signal amplification (NESA) to detect the oligomeric form of ß-amyolid peptide (AβO) in cerebrospinal fluid. The hairpin DNA probe (HP) was specifically designed to recognize AβO. When AβO is present in the sensing system, it induces an HP conformational switch and triggers the NESA reaction.
