Studying the role of buffers in impedance spectroscopy is a relatively unexplored area. We demonstrate a special class of biologically relevant buffers known as Good's zwitterionic buffers that show improved performance over standard electrolyte buffers (e.g. PBS) currently widely used in impedance spectroscopy measurements of bacterial suspensions. Our theoretical and experimental comparisons of conductivity of classical and zwitterionic buffers at various different concentrations show that ion-ion interaction effects are significantly higher in zwitterionic buffers as compared to classical buffers at the concentrations at which they are used. This and the fact that zwitterions have larger sizes leads to the lowering of their conductivity which significantly improves their impedance sensing ability. We illustrate through an example of heat-induced ionic release in model S. typhi and S. aureus bacteria that having a low conductivity buffer is indeed beneficial for biological impedance measurements. In fact, the best buffer for impedance studies can be chosen solely based on their electrical properties as long as they are also biologically compatible. This gives Good's zwitterionic buffers an edge over conventional media as they satisfy both these criteria.Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is still considered a pandemic, and the detection of p24-HIV protein has an important role in the early diagnosis of HIV in adults and newborns. The accessibility of these trials depends on the price and execution difficulty of the method, which can be reduced using electrochemical methods by using enzymeless approaches, disposable and accurate devices. In this work, graphene quantum dots were acquired by a simple synthesis and employed as an electrochemical signal amplifier and support for the aptamer immobilization through a feasible and stable modification of disposable screen-printed electrodes. The device has been easily assembled and used to detect p24-HIV protein without the interference of similar proteins or sample matrix. Using the best set of experimental conditions, a linear correlation between analytical signal and log of p24-HIV concentration from 0.93 ng mL-1 to 93 μg mL-1 and a limit of detection of 51.7 pg mL-1 were observed. The developed device was applied to p24 determination in spiked human serum and provided distinct levels of signal for positive and negative samples, successfully identifying real samples with the target protein. This sensor is a step towards the development of point-of-care devices and the popularization of electrochemical methods for trials and diagnostics of relevant diseases.Easy-preparation magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) adsorbents with excellent extraction performance are very indispensable for MSPE techniques. Herein, a magnetic carbon nanotube covalent organic framework composite (MCNTs@TpPa-1) was prepared simply and rapidly through mechanochemical synthesis as MSPE adsorbent for enriching microcystins (MCs). The synthesized MCNTs@TpPa-1 exhibited well water dispersibility, high affinity with MCs and large surface area, resulting in outstanding extraction performance for MCs. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ipi-549.html Subsequently, combined with high-performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS), an efficient, sensitive and convenient MSPE method was set up for the determination of trace MCs from aqueous sample, which exhibited acceptable repeatability (RSDs (relative standard deviations) ≤ 6.8%, n = 6), low limits of detection (LODs, 0.8-1.5 pg mL-1), reliable linearity (R ≥ 0.9991) and broad range of linearity (2.0-1000 pg mL-1). Furthermore, the developed method was applied to lake samples and trace MCs (9.6-24.6 pg mL-1) were found with satisfactory recovery (85.0-106.0%). The results indicated powerfully MCNTs@TpPa-1 was of significant potential as an MSPE sorbent for detection of trace MCs in water. Moreover, considering the complexity of traditional preparation methods, novel prospects for preparing magnetic covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with excellent extraction properties were opened up.A novel MNAzyme signal amplification strategy was developed for enzyme-free and label-free detection of DNA-binding proteins. This strategy relied on the binding-mediated MNAzyme cleavage and G-quadruplex-based light-up fluorescence switch. Three DNA sequences were designed to construct the MNAzyme in which DNA1 (including half binding site of the target protein and a toehold sequence) and DNA2 (including another half binding site of the target protein and one MNAzyme partzyme) firstly hybridized. The target protein recognized the binding sites on DNA1-DNA2 hybrid to form a stable protein-DNA1-DNA2 conjugates. Then, the MNAzyme was assembled with the presence of DNA3 which contained another MNAzyme partzyme and the complementary sequence of DNA1. The active MNAzyme cleaved DNA4 to release the G-quadruplex that was locked in the stem of DNA4. Finally, N-methyl mesoporphyrin IX (NMM) was inserted into the released G-quadruplex structure and the fluorescence signal was turned on. Taking nuclear factor-κB p50 (NF-κB p50) as the model, the limit of detection was low to 0.14 nM. Furthermore, the sequence-specific recognition of NF-κB p50 with DNA displayed excellent selectivity and specificity. The results in present work showed that this strategy will be a promising tool for DNA-binding proteins analysis in biomedical exploration and clinical diagnosis.The use of 3D printing in the chemical and analytical sciences has gained a lot of momentum in recent years. Some of the earliest publications detailed 3D-printed interfaces for mass spectrometry, which is an evolving family of powerful detection techniques. Since then, the application of 3D printing for enhancing mass spectrometry has significantly diversified, with important reasons for its application including flexible integration of different parts or devices, fast customization of setups, additional functionality, portability, cost-effectiveness, and user-friendliness. Moreover, computer-aided design (CAD) and 3D printing enables the rapid and wide distribution of scientific and engineering knowledge. 3D printers allow fast prototyping with constantly increasing resolution in a broad range of materials using different fabrication principles. Moreover, 3D printing has proven its value in the development of novel technologies for multiple analytical applications such as online and offline sample preparation, ionization, ion transport, and developing interfaces for the mass spectrometer.
