Article Abstract
Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) can leach into food and the environment, posing health and ecological risks. This paper introduces a novel CRISPR-based fluorescent aptasensor for on-site DEHP detection. The aptasensor selectively binds to DEHP, triggering a competitive displacement reaction that releases an Aptamer-dsDNA probe. After magnetic separation, the supernatant is analyzed via a Cas12a reporter system, where Cas12a activation cleaves a FAM-BHQ reporter, generating fluorescence. Combined with smartphone imaging, this method enables rapid result acquisition. The aptasensor shows high selectivity and sensitivity, detecting DEHP from 1 pg/mL to 1 μg/mL, with a lower limit of 0.15 pg/mL. It effectively detects DEHP in various real samples, offering reliable visual monitoring. This method offers a rapid and effective on-site detection strategy for food safety and environmental pollution monitoring.

Avian influenza viruses (AIVs) are zoonotic pathogens that pose an increasing global threat due to their potential for significant economic losses in agriculture, spillover into humans, and the risk of a pandemic should human-to-human transmission occur. These concerns underscore the need for rapid, sensitive and specific tools to detect and differentiate circulating AIV subtypes and clades. Current AIV diagnostic methods rely on specialized equipment and trained personnel, limiting their use in the field and in low-resource settings.

CRISPR/Cas9 technology is an efficient tool for site-specific livestock gene editing. However, to minimize potential disruption of host genome function, exogenous genes should be integrated into well-characterized genomic loci, such as H11 or Rosa26, which have been empirically validated for stable transgene expression. This study established a multi-dimensional assessment system to evaluate the biological applicability of the H11 locus and the widely used Rosa26 targeting platform as sites for targeted integration of exogenous genes in goats.

CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats)-mediated transcriptional regulation is a powerful and programmable approach for controlling gene expression. While CRISPR-based gene repression is well established in bacteria, simultaneous activation and repression remain challenging due to the limited availability of effective bacterial activation domains. Here, we provide an efficient dual-mode CRISPR activation and interference (CRISPRa/i) system that integrates an evolved protospacer adjacent motif (PAM)-flexible dxCas9 with an engineered Escherichia coli cAMP receptor protein (CRP).

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-based nucleic acid detection has advanced rapidly due to its simplicity, high specificity, and high sensitivity. However, most conventional CRISPR-based detection methods lack quantitative capability. Although the strategy of digital PCR technology enhances the sensitivity of CRISPR detection and enables quantification analysis through sample dispersion, integration remains limited.

The development of sensitive and convenient molecular detection technologies is crucial for early disease diagnosis and precision medicine. The CRISPR-Cas12a system has garnered significant attention due to its efficient molecular detection capabilities. However, most methods were performed at 37 °C or higher, which require a temperature control system and limit their applicability in point-of-care (POC) settings.
