Nanostructure-Engineered Optical and Electrochemical Biosensing Toward Food Safety Assurance

Le résumé fourni par la source

Considering the necessity of food safety testing, various biosensors have been developed based on biological elements (e.g., antibodies, aptamers), chemical elements (e.g., molecularly imprinted polymers), physical elements (e.g., nanopores) as recognition substances. According to the sensing patterns of signal transduction, the biosensors could be classified into optical and electrochemical biosensing, including fluorescence sensing, Raman sensing, colorimetric sensing, electrochemical sensing, etc. To enhance the sensing sensitivity, kinds of nanomaterials have been applied for signal amplification. With merits of high selectivity, sensitivity, and accuracy, the sensing strategies have been widely applied for food safety testing. This review highlights their signal output behavior, (e.g., fluorescence intensity shifts, Raman peak alterations, colorimetric changes, electrochemical current/voltage/impedance variations), nanostructure-mediated amplification mechanisms, and the fundamental recognition principles. Future efforts should prioritize multiplexed assay platforms, integration with microfluidics and smart devices, novel biorecognition elements, and sustainable manufacturing. Emerging synergies between biosensors and AI-driven data analytics promise intelligent monitoring systems for predictive food safety management, addressing challenges in food matrix compatibility and real-time hazard identification.
