Design and validation of fiber optic localized surface plasmon resonance sensor for thyroglobulin immunoassay with high sensitivity and rapid detection.

ABSTRACT: A simple optical fiber sensor based on localized surface plasmon resonance was constructed for direct and rapid measurement of thyroglobulin (Tg). Specific tests for Tg in patients that have undergone thyroidectomy are limited because of insufficient sensitivity, complicated procedures, and in some cases, a long time to yield a result. A sensitive, fast, and simple method is necessary to relieve the psychological and physical burden of the patient. Various concentrations of Tg were measured in a microfluidic channel using an optical fiber sensor with gold nanoparticles. The sensor chip has a detection limit of 93.11 fg/mL with no specificity for other antigens. The potential applicability of the Tg sensing system was evaluated using arbitrary samples containing specific concentrations of Tg. Finally, the sensor can be employed to detect Tg in the patient's serum, with a good correlation when compared with the commercial kit.

Project description:BackgroundThrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is characterized by severe ADAMTS-13 activity deficiency (<10%). Diagnostic testing is challenging because of unavailability, high cost, and expert technician requirement of ADAMTS-13 enzyme assays. Cost-effective, automated fiber-optic surface plasmon resonance (FO-SPR) platforms show potential for developing diagnostic tests. Yet, FO-SPR has never been explored to measure enzymatic activities.ObjectivesTo develop an easy-to-use ADAMTS-13 activity assay utilizing optical fibers to rapidly diagnose TTP.MethodsThe ADAMTS-13 activity assay was designed and optimized using FO-SPR technology based on a previously described enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay setup. A calibration curve was generated to quantify ADAMTS-13 activity in plasma of healthy donors and patients with acute immune-mediated TTP (iTTP), hemolytic uremic syndrome, or sepsis. ADAMTS-13 activity data from FO-SPR and fluorescence resonance energy transfer-based strategies (FRETS)-VWF73 reference assays were compared.ResultsAfter initial assay development, optimization improved read-out magnitude and signal-to-noise ratio and reduced variation. Further characterization demonstrated a detection limit (6.8%) and inter-assay variation (Coefficient of variation, 7.2%) that showed good analytical sensitivity and repeatability. From diverse plasma samples, only plasma from patients with acute iTTP showed ADAMTS-13 activities below 10%. Strong Pearson correlation (r = 0.854) between FO-SPR and reference FRETS-VWF73 assays were observed for all measured samples.ConclusionsA fast ADAMTS-13 activity assay was designed onto automated FO-SPR technology. Optimization resulted in sensitive ADAMTS-13 activity measurements with a detection limit enabling clinical diagnosis of TTP within 3 hours. The FO-SPR assay proved strong correlation with the reference FRETS-VWF73 assay. For the first time, this assay demonstrated the capacity of FO-SPR technology to measure enzymatic activity in pre-clinical context.
