A Sensitive Aptasensor for Ofloxacin Detection Based on Split crRNA with CRISPR/Cas12a-Powered Cascade Strand Displacement and Phosphorothioate-Modified G-quadruplex/triplex Concatemer Fluorescence Probe
Aflatoxin contamination, especially aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), is a major global health concern. There is an urgent need to develop rapid, highly sensitive and specific sensing platforms. In this study, two fluorescence aptasensors were developed for AFB1 detection. The first used quantum dots (QDs) combined with aptamers as...

The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated proteins (Cas) system enables sensitive and specific biomolecular detection due to its programmability, high fidelity, and signal amplification. Herein, a novel universal CRISPR/Cas12a-G4 DNAzyme-TMB (Cas-GT) enzymatic biosensi...

Most existing CRISPR/Cas12a methods for small molecules detection employ DNA aptamers as an intermediary, while RNA aptamers remain underexplored. The conventional CRISPR/Cas12 system offers limited programmability due to its partially conserved crRNA sequence. In this study, we developed an aptamer-regulated CRISPR/Ca...

Exosomal piR-823 is a promising specific biomarker for colorectal cancer, yet its ultrasensitive detection remains challenging due to its extremely low abundance and high sequence complexity. Herein, we developed a cascaded CHA-CRISPR/Cas12a photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensing platform enabled by an S-scheme Bi2WO6/BiOB...

Autocatalytic CRISPR/Cas systems offer a promising route toward amplification-free nucleic acid detection, yet their performance is limited by indiscriminate transcleavage of ssDNA activators and the reliance on structurally complex, thermodynamically unstable DNA architectures. A phosphorothioate (PS)-enabled Cas12a a...
