Determination of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) by label-free electrochemical immunosensor using functionalized boron nitride nanosheets
In this study, a simple, specific and sensitive immunosensor for CEA detection was prepared based on BN nanosheets. Lewis acid-base interaction was sufficient for the immobilization of anti-CEA used as an antibody on the electrode surface without an activation agent. This immunosensor could be used for CEA determination without the need to use any label or secondary antibody. With its epedance-based recognition mechanism, this immunosensor offered a low LOD value of 0.017 ng/mL and a wide measurement range of 0.1-500 ng/mL and could be used for a long time. The analytical performance of this immunosensor is higher than the...

A sensitive immunosensing platform based on the high cathodic photoelectrochemical activity of Zr-MOF and dual-signal amplification of peroxidase-mimetic Fe-MOF
Bioelectrochemistry. 2024 Feb 29;157:108677. doi: 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2024.108677. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCathodic photoelectrochemical (PEC) analysis has received special concerns because of its outstanding anti-interference capability toward reductive substances in samples, so it is highly desirable to develop high-performance photocathodic materials for PEC analysis. Herein, a Zr-based metal-organic framework (Zr-MOF), MOF-525, is explored as a photoactive material in aqueous solution for the first time, which shows a narrow band-gap of 1.82 eV, excellent visible-light absorption, and high cathodic PEC activity....

Photo-sensitive peptide inducing targeted cross-linking in a one-step and reagent-, enzyme- and antibody-free detection of SARS-Cov-2 marker protein
Bioelectrochemistry. 2024 Feb 25;157:108672. doi: 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2024.108672.

However, the associated assays remain costly, considering their extensive daily use. In response, we developed a simplified one-step SARS-CoV-2 protease assay that reduces both time and financial expenses. This approach eliminates the need for extra reagents, enzymes, or antibodies. The simplification involves a photo-sensitive Bengal red-tagged substrate peptide, allowing s...

The organo-metal-like nature of long-range conduction in cable bacteria
Bioelectrochemistry. 2024 Feb 25;157:108675. doi: 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2024.108675. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCable bacteria are filamentous, multicellular microorganisms that display an exceptional form of biological electron transport across centimeter-scale distances. Currents are guided through a network of nickel-containing protein fibers within the cell envelope. Still, the mechanism of long-range conduction remains unresolved. Here, we characterize the conductance of the fiber network under dry and wet, physiologically relevant, conditions. Our data reveal that the fiber conductivity is high (median value: 27 S ...
