Development of highly sensitive and accurate biosensors still faces a great challenge. Herein, glucose oxidase (GOx) is efficiently immobilized on the AuCu hydrogels owing to their porous structure and interfacial interaction, demonstrating enhanced catalytic activity, satisfactory stability and recyclability. Besides, by integration of AuCu@GOx and electrochromic material of Prussian blue, a sensitive and stable biosensing platform based on the excellent electrochromic property of Prussian blue and the enhanced enzyme activity of AuCu@GOx is developed, which enables the electrochemical and visual dual-mode detection of glucose. The as-constructed biosensing platform possesses a wide linear range, and good selectivity for glucose detection with a limit of detection of 0.82 μM in visual mode and 0.84 μM in electrochemical mode. This easy-to-operate biosensing platform opens a door for the practical application of the multi-mode strategy for glucose detection.

Wearable sweat sensors offer noninvasive health monitoring through multiplexed biomarker analysis, delivering real-time diagnostics with continuous operational capability. However, chronic cutaneous interface hydration during prolonged monitoring induces adhesive delamination phenomena that manifest as signal attenuation, which fundamentally limits their clinical reliability. To address this challenge, we developed a thermodynamically adaptive polymer interface combining three functional components: mussel-inspired catechol moieties for moisture-tolerant adhesion, hydrophobic acrylates ensuring mechanical stability, and N-isopropylacrylamide enabling thermal responsiveness.

Phytic acid is a phosphorylated derivative of myo-inositol that is ubiquitous in plants and serves as the primary storage form of phosphorus. In human nutrition, phytic acid is considered an anti-nutrient because it chelates essential minerals, including calcium, iron, and zinc. This binding action reduces the bioavailability of these metals, highlighting the importance of monitoring phytic acid in food.

DNAzymes possessing kinase-like activities have long held theoretical promise, yet their practical implementation has remained significantly limited. Notably, DNAzyme kinase 1 (DK1), discovered over two decades ago, exhibits a unique self-phosphorylation capability upon encountering specific substrates like ATP, but its broad-based and programmable applications have not yet been fully realized. In this study, we innovatively couple DK1's autophosphorylation mechanism with the PfAgo to establish a novel programmable cascade sensing platform named RASTEN (Robust pfAgo-based Strategy for POC Testing Non-nucleic Acid and Nucleic Acid).

Background: Hexavalent chromium ions (Cr(VI)), a notorious toxic heavy metal pollutant with proven carcinogenicity, endangers human health and the environment. Meanwhile, l-ascorbic acid (L-AA), a vital biological antioxidant, has abnormal levels closely tied to various diseases. Developing efficient synchronous detection methods for these two key analytes is of great value in clinical and environmental monitoring.

Background: A DNA barcode is a short DNA fragment used to classify and identify specific organisms, taking advantage of the specificity and diversity inherent in biological molecules. Since Herbert introduced the concept in 2003, DNA barcoding has been increasingly used in precision medicine and related fields, including species identification and environmental monitoring, over the past few decades. Although numerous molecular diagnostic techniques have emerged, many face notable obstacles such as sensitivity to handling conditions, high expenses, and limitations in accuracy.
