Sensitive Immunoassay of a Biomarker Tumor Necrosis Factor-α Based on Poly(guanine)-Functionalized Silica Nanoparticle Label

Wang, Jun, Liu, Guodong, Engelhard, Mark H., Lin, Yuehe·2006·Analytical Chemistry

Abstract

A novel electrochemical immunosensor for the detection of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) based on poly(guanine)-functionalized silica nanoparticles (NPs) label is presented. The detection of mouse TNF-alpha via immunological reaction is based on a dual signal amplification: (1) a large amount of guanine residues introduced on the electrode surface through sandwich immunoreaction and poly(guanine)-functionalized silica NP label; (2) Ru(bpy)3(2+)-induced catalytic oxidation of guanine, which results in great enhancement of anodic current. The synthesized silica NP conjugates were characterized with atomic force microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and electrochemistry. These experiments confirmed that poly(guanine) and avidin were immobilized on the surface of silica NPs. The performance of the electrochemical immunosensor was evaluated and some experiment parameters (e.g., concentration of Ru(bpy)3(2+), incubation time of TNF-alpha, etc.) were optimized. The detection limit for TNF-alpha is found to be 5.0 x 10(-11) g mL(-1) (2.0 pM), which corresponds to 60 amol of TNF-alpha in 30 microL of sample. This immunosensor based on the poly(guanine)-functionalized silica NP label offers great promise for rapid, simple, cost-effective analysis of biological samples.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
