As biomarkers of cancer, the accurate and sensitive detection of microRNAs is of great significance. Therefore, we proposed a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)/electrochemical (EC) dual-mode nanosensor for sensitively detecting miRNA-141. The nanosensor uses Au@Ag nanowires as a novel SERS/EC sensing platform, which has the advantages of good biocompatibility, fast response, and high sensitivity. The dual-mode nanosensor can not only effectively overcome the problem of insufficient reliability of single signal, but also realize the amplification and stable output of the detection signal, to ensure the reliability and repeatability of miRNA detection. With this sensing strategy, the target miRNA-141 can be detected over a wide linear range (100 fM to 50 nM) (LOD of 18.4 fM for SERS and 16.0 fM for electrochemical methods). In addition, the process shows good selectivity and can distinguish miRNA-141 from other interfering miRNAs. The actual analysis of human serum samples also proves that our strategy has good reliability, repeatability, and has broad application prospects in the field of analysis and detection.

The differentiation of valence states plays a crucial role in determining the toxicity of chromium (Cr) in environmental samples. In this work, two modes of colorimetric and electrochemical analytical methods based on a fungus like porous CoS (FP CoS) nanosensor were developed for rapid, specific, and portable detection trace/ultra-trace chromium species (Cr(VI) and Cr(III)). The FP CoS exhibited peroxidase activity as a nanozyme for the colorimetric detection of Cr(VI), catalyzing the oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to a blue oxidation product (oxTMB) in the presence of Cr(VI) instead of unstable HO as an oxidizer at room temperature over existing methods.

Surgery remains an essential treatment for managing drug-resistant focal epilepsy, but its accessibility and efficacy are limited in patients without distinct structural abnormalities on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Potassium ion (K), a critical marker for seizure-associated neuronal signaling, shows significant promise for designing sensors targeting hidden epileptic foci. However, existing sensors cannot cross the blood-brain barrier and lack the ability to specifically enrich and amplify K signals in the brain with high temporal and spatial resolution.

Timely and accurate on-site detection of ochratoxin A (OTA) is extremely important for global public health. In this study, a fluorescence/colorimetric biosensor based on TiC nano-materials (TiC-NMS) and a machine-learning (ML) based fluorescence/colorimetric intelligent learning system for detection of OTA concentration (COTA) were developed. The sensor was fabricated by functionalizing TiC-NMS prepared by physical-exfoliation assisted metal-ion-induction using ssDNA.
