The main properties of graphene derivatives facilitating optical and electrical biosensing platforms are discussed, along with how the integration of graphene derivatives, plastic, and paper can lead to innovative devices in order to simplify biosensing technology and manufacture easy‐to‐use, yet powerful electrical or optical biosensors. Some crucial issues to be overcome in order to bring graphene‐based biosensors to the market are also underscored. 相似文献

Biological interfacing of graphene has become crucial to improve its biocompatibility, dispersability, and selectivity. However, biofunctionalization of graphene without yielding defects in its sp2‐carbon lattice is a major challenge. Here, a process is set out for biofunctionalized defect‐free graphene synthesis through the liquid phase ultrasonic exfoliation of raw graphitic material assisted by the self‐assembling fungal hydrophobin Vmh2. This protein (extracted from the edible fungus Pleurotus ostreatus) is endowed with peculiar physicochemical properties, exceptional stability, and versatility. The unique properties of Vmh2 and, above all, its superior hydrophobicity, and stability allow to obtain a highly concentrated (≈440–510 μg mL?1) and stable exfoliated material (ζ‐potential, +40/+70 mV). In addition controlled centrifugation enables the selection of biofunctionalized few‐layer defect‐free micrographene flakes, as assessed by Raman spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and electrophoretic mobility. This biofunctionalized product represents a high value added material for the emerging applications of graphene in the biotechnological field such as sensing, nanomedicine, and bioelectronics technologies. 相似文献

Immunoassays are nowadays a crucial tool for diagnostics and drug development. However, they often involve time‐consuming procedures and need at least two antibodies in charge of the capture and detection processes, respectively. This study reports a nanocomposite based on graphene oxide‐coated nanopaper (GONAP) facilitating an advantageous immunosensing platform using a single antibody and without the need for washing steps. The hydrophilic, porous, and photoluminescence‐quenching character of GONAP allows for the adsorption and quenching of photoluminescent quantum dots nanocrystals complexed with antibodies (Ab‐QDs), enabling a ready‐to‐use immunosensing platform. The photoluminescence is recovered upon immunocomplex (antibody‐antigen) formation which embraces a series of interactions (hydrogen bonding, electrostatic, hydrophobic, and Van der Waals interactions) that trigger desorption of the antigen‐Ab‐QD complex from GONAP surface. However, the antigen is then attached onto the GONAP surface by electrostatic interactions leading to a spacer (greater than ≈20 nm) between Ab‐QDs and GONAP and thus hindering nonradiative energy transfer. It is demonstrated that this simple—yet highly sensitive—platform represents a virtually universal immunosensing approach by using small‐sized and big‐sized targets as model analytes, those are, human‐IgG protein and Escherichia coli bacteria. In addition, the assay is proved effective in real matrices analysis, including human serum, poultry meat, and river water. GONAP opens the way to conceptually new paper‐based devices for immunosensing, which are amenable to point of care applications and automated diagnostics. 相似文献

Environmental pollution is threatening human health and ecosystems as a result of modern agricultural techniques and industrial progress. A simple nanopaper-based platform coupled with luminescent bacteria Aliivibrio fischeri (A. fischeri) as a bio-indicator is presented here, for rapid and sensitive evaluation of contaminant toxicity. When exposed to toxicants, the luminescence inhibition of A. fischeri-decorated bioluminescent nanopaper (BLN) can be quantified and analyzed to classify the toxicity level of a pollutant. The BLN composite was characterized in terms of morphology and functionality. Given the outstanding biocompatibility of nanocellulose for bacterial proliferation, BLN achieved high sensitivity with a low cost and simplified procedure compared to conventional instruments for laboratory use only. The broad applicability of BLN devices to environmental samples was studied in spiked real matrices (lake and sea water), and their potential for direct and in situ toxicity screening was demonstrated. The BLN architecture not only survives but also maintains its function during freezing and recycling processes, endowing the BLN system with competitive advantages as a deliverable, ready-to-use device for large-scale manufacturing. The novel luminescent bacteria-immobilized, nanocelullose-based device shows outstanding abilities for toxicity bioassays of hazardous compounds, bringing new possibilities for cheap and efficient environmental monitoring of potential contamination. 相似文献

Architecting Graphene Oxide Rolled‐Up Micromotors: A Simple Paper‐Based Manufacturing Technology 下载免费PDF全文

A graphene oxide rolled‐up tube production process is reported using wax‐printed membranes for the fabrication of on‐demand engineered micromotors at different levels of oxidation, thickness, and lateral dimensions. The resultant graphene oxide rolled‐up tubes can show magnetic and catalytic movement within the addition of magnetic nanoparticles or sputtered platinum in the surface of graphene‐oxide‐modified wax‐printed membranes prior to the scrolling process. As a proof of concept, the as‐prepared catalytic graphene oxide rolled‐up micromotors are successfully exploited for oil removal from water. This micromotor production technology relies on an easy, operator‐friendly, fast, and cost‐efficient wax‐printed paper‐based method and may offer a myriad of hybrid devices and applications. 相似文献

A rapid cancer cell detection and quantification assay, based on the electrocatalytic properties of gold nanoparticles towards the hydrogen evolution reaction, is described. The selective labeling of cancer cells is performed in suspension, allowing a fast interaction between the gold nanoparticle labels and the target proteins expressed at the cell membrane. The subsequent electrochemical detection is accomplished with small volumes of sample and user‐friendly equipment through a simple electrochemical method that generates a fast electrochemical response used for the quantification of nanoparticle‐labeled cancer cells. The system establishes a selective cell‐detection assay capable of detecting 4 × 103 cancer cells in suspension that can be extended to several other cells detection scenarios. 相似文献

Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) entails the transfer of energy from a photoexcited energy donor to a close energy acceptor. In this regard, quantum dots (QDs), as donors, are quenched when they are next to an acceptor material. Graphite, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), carbon nanofibers (CNFs) and graphene oxide (GO) were explored as energy acceptors of QD FRET donors in the solid phase. In our setup, the higher estimated values of quenching efficiency for each material are as follows: graphite, 66 ± 17%; CNTs, 71 ± 1%; CNFs, 74 ± 07% and GO, 97 ± 1%. Among these materials, GO is the best acceptor of QD FRET donors in the solid phase. Such an ultrahigh quenching efficiency by GO and the proposed simple mechanism may open the way to several interesting applications in the field of biosensing. 相似文献
