Enhancing the electrocatalytic activity of palladium nanocluster tags by selective introduction of gold atoms: Application for a wound infection biomarker detection

Celia Toyos-Rodriguez et al.

Summary: This work explores the role of slight changes in the Pd/Au proportion in the electrocatalytic activity of bimetallic Pd-AuNPs for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The study finds that the synergy between Pd and Au is maximized when the amount of gold is controlled and occupies the more reactive positions of the cluster. The optimal Pd-AuNPs with 30% gold exhibit the highest catalytic activity.

Electrochemical Detection for Isothermal Loop-Mediated Amplification of Pneumolysin Gene of Streptococcus pneumoniae Based on the Oxidation of Phenol Red Indicator

Andrea Gonzalez-Lopez et al.

Summary: A highly sensitive electrochemical methodology was developed to detect the end-point of loop-mediated isothermal nucleic acid amplification reactions. The methodology utilizes the oxidation process of phenol red as a visual indicator and quantifies the pH changes during amplification. The change in oxidation potential of phenol red serves as a novel analytical signal correlating with the number of initial DNA copies. In the proof-of-concept study, amplification of the pneumolysin gene from Streptococcus pneumoniae was successfully achieved. The combination of isothermal amplification with electrochemical detection on small flexible electrodes allows for easy decentralization and could be adapted for the detection of other pathogens causing infectious diseases, which is of great importance in preventing future epidemics.
