Ru(bpy)3(2+)/nanoporous silver-based electrochemiluminescence immunosensor for alpha fetoprotein enhanced by gold nanoparticles decorated black carbon intercalated reduced graphene oxide.

ABSTRACT: A highly sensitive sandwich-type electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor was proposed for the quantitative determination of alpha fetoprotein (AFP) using gold nanoparticles decorated black carbon intercalated reduced graphene oxide (Au-rGO@CB) as sensing platform and nanoporous silver (NPS) loaded Ru(bpy)3(2+) as labels. In this work, intercalation of CB inhibited the accumulation of rGO and Au-rGO@CB was firstly used to immobilize primary antibody (Ab1) in ECL system. NPS prepared by the dealloying of binary alloy has high pore volume and surface areas, which was used to load amount of secondary antibodies (Ab2) and Ru(bpy)3(2+), which could greatly enhance the ECL intensity. Under optimal conditions, the designed immunosensor exhibited wider linear range from 0.0001 to 30?ng/mL with a relative lower detection limit of 33?fg/mL for AFP detection. Overall, the designed immunosensor exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity, good repeatability and stability. This proposed method provided a potential application for clinical monitoring of AFP.

Project description:In recent years, several efforts have been made to develop selective, sensitive, fast response, and miniaturized immunosensors with improved performance for the monitoring and screening of analytes in several matrices, significantly expanding the use of this technology in a broad range of applications. However, one of the main technical challenges in developing immunosensors is overcoming the complexity of binding antibodies (Abs) to the sensor surface. Most immobilizing approaches lead to a random orientation of Abs, resulting in lower binding site density and immunoaffinity. In this context, supramolecular chemistry has emerged as a suitable surface modification tool to achieve the preorganization of artificial receptors and to improve the functional properties of self-assembled monolayers. Herein, a supramolecular chemistry/nanotechnology-based platform was conceived to develop sensitive label-free electrochemical immunosensors, by using a resorcarene macrocycle as an artificial linker for the oriented antibody immobilization. To this aim, a water-soluble bifunctional resorc[4]arene architecture (RW) was rationally designed and synthesized to anchor gold-coated magnetic nanoparticles (Au@MNPs) and to maximize the amount of the active immobilized antibody (Ab) in the proper "end-on" orientation. The resulting supramolecular chemistry-modified nanoparticles, RW@Au@MNPs, were deposited onto graphite screen printed electrodes which were then employed to immobilize three different Abs. Furthermore, an immunosensor for atrazine (ATZ) analysis was realized and characterized by the differential pulse voltammetry technique to demonstrate the validity of the developed biosensing platform as a proof of concept for electrochemical immunosensors. The RW-based immunosensor improved AbATZ loading on Au@MNPs and sensitivity toward ATZ by almost 1.5 times compared to the random platform. Particularly, the electrochemical characterization of the developed immunosensor displays a linearity range toward ATZ within 0.05-1.5 ng/mL, a limit of detection of 0.011 ng/ml, and good reproducibility and stability. The immunosensor was tested by analyzing spiked fortified water samples with a mean recovery ranging from 95.7 to 108.4%. The overall good analytical performances of this immunodevice suggest its application for the screening and monitoring of ATZ in real matrices. Therefore, the results highlighted the successful application of the resorc[4]arene-based sensor design strategy for developing sensitive electrochemical immunosensors with improved analytical performance and simplifying the Ab immobilization procedure.
