Guanidine metabolites isolated from microorganisms, marine invertebrates, terrestrial animals and plants are reviewed, as well as the biosynthesis, total synthesis, biological activities and ecological roles of guanidine natural products.
This review discusses cyanotoxin biosynthetic pathways and highlights the heterologous expression and biochemical studies used to characterise them.
We demonstrate a facile and ultrasensitive colorimetric sensor based on gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) and aptamer (Au NPs-aptamer biosensor) for specific and quantitative detection of STX.
A novel label-free BLI aptasensor was developed for the rapid and sensitive detection of nodularin-R in water.
For the first time, the aptamer of dinophysistoxin-1 was successfully obtained with high affinity and specificity by SELEX, and an aptasensor with a detection range from 40 to 600 nM was developed by biolayer interferometry.
