Gold Nanoparticle-Enhanced and Roll-to-Roll Nanoimprinted LSPR Platform for Detecting Interleukin-10.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) is a powerful platform for detecting biomolecules including proteins, nucleotides, and vesicles. Here, we report a colloidal gold (Au) nanoparticle-based assay that enhances the LSPR signal of nanoimprinted Au strips. The binding of the colloidal Au nanoparticle on the Au strip causes a red-shift of the LSPR extinction peak, enabling the detection of interleukin-10 (IL-10) cytokine. For LSPR sensor fabrication, we employed a roll-to-roll nanoimprinting process to create nanograting structures on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film. By the angled deposition of Au on the PET film, we demonstrated a double-bent Au structure with a strong LSPR extinction peak at ~760 nm. Using the Au LSPR sensor, we developed an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) protocol by forming a sandwich structure of IL-10 capture antibody/IL-10/IL-10 detection antibody. To enhance the LSPR signal, we introduced colloidal Au nanocube (AuNC) to be cross-linked with IL-10 detection antibody for immunogold assay. Using IL-10 as a model protein, we successfully achieved nanomolar sensitivity. We confirmed that the shift of the extinction peak was improved by 450% due to plasmon coupling between AuNC and Au strip. We expect that the AuNC-assisted LSPR sensor platform can be utilized as a diagnostic tool by providing convenient and fast detection of the LSPR signal.
