Advancements and Prospects in DNA-Based Bioanalytical Technology for Environmental Toxicant Detection.
Review in JACS Au, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The mounting global crisis of environmental pollution necessitates transformative advances in analytical technologies that combine speed, precision, and field applicability. To meet this demand, next-generation analytical platforms must achieve seamless integration of two critical features: molecular-level recognition fidelity and reliable signal transduction. DNA nanotechnology leverages sequence-specific molecular recognition and programmable self-assembly to enable both natural (e.g., riboswitches) and synthetic (e.g., aptamers, DNAzymes) biosensing modalities. The structural programmability and predictable Watson-Crick base pairing of DNA provide a modular framework for designing next-generation biosensors with tunable specificity and sensitivity. When integrated with portable point-of-care (POC) platforms, these biosensing systems enable field-deployable, rapid, and operator-agnostic detection of toxicants across diverse matrixes, making them highly suitable for complex environmental monitoring tasks. This perspective highlights the potential and strategic approaches for constructing biosensors utilizing DNA-based recognition elements and structural materials. It explores the progress in field-deployable DNA-based biosensors, which are revolutionizing the on-site detection of environmental toxicants. We also discuss the current challenges and future perspectives for DNA-based biosensing systems in environmental pollution monitoring, offering insights into their broader applications.
