Article Abstract

Long-term intake of fumonisin B1 (FB1) can pose a threat to human health. It is essential to develop an accurate and sensitive method to detect FB1. In this work, a photoelectrochemical-fluorescence (PEC-FL) dual-mode aptamer sensing platform was proposed for FB1 analysis. Tb@Zr-MOF was used as a dual-functional signal label connected to p-DNA, which not only emits a fluorescent signal but also utilizes its low conductivity and steric hindrance effect to quench photocurrent and achieve signal amplification. Furthermore, BiOI/CuBiO, with a high electrode active surface area was served as a sensing matrix to provide more active sites for DNA loading. The Z-scheme heterojunction formed between BiOI and CuBiO significantly enhanced the electron transfer rate. The sensing platform exhibited a wide linear detection range in both PEC (100 fg/mL-1 μg/mL) and FL (100 fg/mL-1 μg/mL) modes, with detection limits as low as 17.78 fg/mL (S/N = 3) and 21.93 fg/mL (S/N = 3), respectively. This work avoids environmental and operation-induced errors in single-mode detection through dual-mode cross-validation, providing a good application prospect for reliable and accurate analysis of FB1.

Despite the promise of electrochemical biosensors in amplified nucleic acid diagnostics, existing high-sensitivity platforms often rely on a multilayer surface assembly and cascade amplification confined to the electrode interface. These stepwise strategies suffer from inefficient enzyme activity, poor mass transport, and inconsistent probe orientation, which compromise the amplification efficiency, reproducibility, and practical applicability. To address these limitations, we report a programmable dual-phase electrochemical biosensing system that decouples amplification from signal transduction.

Simultaneous sensing and quantification of pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs) are crucial for protecting the environment and maintaining long-term ecological sustainability. This study focuses on the bio-based synthesis of BiS-ZnO nanocomposites (BiS-ZnO(bio)) using bio-extract for dual-analyte selective and simultaneous electrochemical monitoring of phenylbutazone (PBZ) and sulfamethoxazole (SMZ) in the environmental matrices. BiS-ZnO(bio) exhibited ZnO(bio) nanostructures embedded on BiS(bio) nanorods with an average rod length of 1409.

Pax-5a gene, as a nucleic acid biomarker closely associated with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL), holds significant potential for early disease diagnosis. In this study, we developed a highly accurate and efficient "on-super on-off" photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensor based on a dual-photoelectrode heterojunction system integrated with a multisphere cascade DNA amplification strategy. The designed heterojunction dual-photoelectrode platform, comprising a InO/CdS photoanode (on state) and an in situ-formed MIL-68(In)/InO (MIO) photocathode, effectively extends the electron-hole transport pathway, enhances photogenerated charge separation, and produces high-amplitude signal output (super on state), thereby providing a robust baseline for signal transduction.

Purpose: Primary ventral hernia repair is a common elective procedure; however, mesh placement practices vary widely, and there is limited evidence to guide optimal placement. This international study examined surgeons' preferences and considerations regarding mesh placement in elective primary ventral hernia repair.

Methods: We conducted an international cross-sectional survey targeting surgeons experienced in primary ventral hernia repair.
