Force-Encoding DNA Nanomachines for Simultaneous and Direct Detection of Multiple Pathogenic Bacteria in Blood
ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY(2024)
Abstract
Pathogen detection is growing in importance in the early stages of bacterial infection and treatment due to the significant morbidity and mortality associated with bloodstream infections. Although various diagnostic approaches for pathogen detection have been proposed, most of them are time-consuming, with insufficient sensitivity and limited specificity and multiplexing capability for clinical use. Here, we report a force-encoding DNA nanomachine for simultaneous and high-throughput detection of multiple pathogens in blood through force-induced remnant magnetization spectroscopy (FIRMS). The force-encoding DNA nanomachines coupled with DNA walkers enable analytical sensitivity down to a single bacterium via a cascade signal amplification strategy. More importantly, it allows for rapid and specific profiling of various pathogens directly in blood samples, without being affected by factors such as light color and solution properties. We expect that this magnetic sensing platform holds great promise for various applications in biomedical research and clinical diagnostics.
