Turn-On Fluorescence Aptasensor on Magnetic Nanobeads for Aflatoxin M1 Detection Based on an Exonuclease III-Assisted Signal Amplification Strategy
摘要: In order to satisfy the need for sensitive detection of Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1), we constructed a simple and signal-on fluorescence aptasensor based on an autocatalytic Exonuclease III (Exo III)-assisted signal amplification strategy. In this sensor, the DNA hybridization on magnetic nanobeads could be triggered by the target AFM1, resulting in the release of a single-stranded DNA to induce an Exo III-assisted signal amplification, in which numerous G-quadruplex structures would be produced and then associated with the fluorescent dye to generate significantly amplified fluorescence signals resulting in the increased sensitivity. Under the optimized conditions, this aptasensor was able to detect AFM1 with a practical detection limit of 9.73 ng kg?1 in milk samples. Furthermore, the prepared sensor was successfully used for detection of AFM1 in the commercially available milk samples with the recovery percentages ranging from 80.13% to 108.67%. Also, the sensor performance was evaluated by the commercial immunoassay kit with satisfactory results.

Comparative Study of Time-Resolved Fluorescent Nanobeads, Quantum Dot Nanobeads and Quantum Dots as Labels in Fluorescence Immunochromatography for Detection of Aflatoxin B1 in Grains
摘要: Label selection is an essential procedure for improving the sensitivity of fluorescence immunochromatography assays (FICAs). Under optimum conditions, time-resolved fluorescent nanobeads (TRFN), quantum dots nanobeads (QB) and quantum dots (QD)-based immunochromatography assays (TRFN-FICA, QB-FICA and QD-FICA) were systematically and comprehensively compared for the quantitative detection of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in six grains (corn, soybeans, sorghum, wheat, rice and oat). All three FICAs can be applied as rapid, cost-effective and convenient qualitative tools for onsite screening of AFB1; TRFN-FICA exhibits the best performance with the least immune reagent consumption, shortest immunoassay duration and lowest limit of detection (LOD). The LODs for TRFN-FICA, QB-FICA and QD-FICA are 0.04, 0.30 and 0.80 μg kg?1 in six grains, respectively. Recoveries range from 83.64% to 125.61% at fortified concentrations of LOD, 2LOD and 4LOD, with the coefficient of variation less than 10.0%. Analysis of 60 field grain samples by three FICAs is in accordance with that of LC-MS/MS, and TRFN-FICA obtained the best fit. In conclusion, TRFN-FICA is more suitable for quantitative detection of AFB1 in grains when the above factors are taken into consideration.

Selection and Characterization of CSFV-Specific Single-Domain Antibodies and Their Application along with Immunomagnetic Nanobeads and Quantum Dots
摘要: Outbreak of classical swine fever (CSF) results in high mortality and thus causes severe economic losses in the swine industry. Single-domain antibody (sdAb) is the smallest antigen-binding molecule derived from camelid heavy-chain antibodies and has the potential to be used as a molecular probe for detection of CSF virus (CSFV). In this study, two sdAb fragments against the E2 antigen of CSFV were obtained, expressed in vitro. The functional characteristics analysis indicated that the recombinant sdAbE2-1 and sdAbE2-2 have excellent binding activity, specificity, and high affinity with equilibrium constant value of 3.34 × 10? 7 and 1.35 × 10? 8 M to E2 protein. Then, sdAbE2s were conjugated with quantum dots (QD)/AF488 to synthesize two molecular probes for imaging CSFV distribution in cells. The sdAbE2-1 was also labeled with carboxyl-magnetic beads to construct immuno-magnetic nanobeads (IMNBs) able to capture CSFV virions and recombinant E2 protein. QD/AF455-sdAbE2s probes colocalised with CSFV virions in swine testis cells, and IMNBs were used as a detection template and proved to bind specifically with CSFV virions and E2 protein. The selected sdAb fragments and sdAb-based molecular probes may be used for the rapid identification of CSFV during field outbreaks and for research on CSFV and host interactions.

AIP Conference Proceedings [AIP Publishing ADVANCES IN BASIC SCIENCE (ICABS 2019) - Bahal, India (7–9 February 2019)] ADVANCES IN BASIC SCIENCE (ICABS 2019) - Photoluminescence and chromaticity properties of CdSe nanobeads made by a complexing agent assisted hydrothermal method for LEDs and laser applications
摘要: CdSe nanosbeads have been synthesized using a complexing agent assisted hydrothermal method. It is found that the presence of complexing agent (Oleic acid) plays a key role in the formation of nanobeads. The structural, morphological and optical properties of CdSe nanoparticles have been investigated. The obtained nanobeads of cadmium selenide are of wurtzite structure. It is inferred that the nucleation and agglomeration of nuclei is a major reason of the formation of nanobeads. The optical results show the obtained band gap is blue shifted from the bulk value and the photoluminescence and chromaticity spectrum show that the prepared CdSe nanobeads are yellowish green color emitters and useful for yellowish green LEDs and lasers.

Lateral flow immunoassays combining enrichment and colorimetry-fluorescence quantitative detection of sulfamethazine in milk based on trifunctional magnetic nanobeads
摘要: In this study, magnetic nanobeads (MNBs) were used as a trifunctional material in lateral flow immunoassay for quantitative detection of sulfamethazine (SM2) in milk. Magnetic enrichment aimed to reduce matrix effects. Naked-eye screening of SM2 was based on colorimetry of colored MNBs. The cut-off value of the naked-eye screening was 25 ng mL-1. When the concentration of SM2 in the samples is equal to the cut-off value or higher, the lateral flow strips can be quantitatively detected via grayscale intensity based on colored MNBs. When the concentration of SM2 in the samples is less than the cut-off value, the lateral flow strips can be quantitatively detected by means of fluorescence intensity based on the fluorescence quenching effect of MNBs. Under optimal conditions, the linear range and limit of detection (LOD) of fluorescence lateral flow immunoassay were 0.033-33 ng mL-1 and 0.026 ng mL-1 respectively, while the linear range and LOD of colorimetric lateral flow immunoassay was 1-100 ng mL-1 and 0.71 ng mL-1, respectively. This novel method can be used for rapid and quantitative detection of SM2 in milk.
