研究目的
To develop a facile and ultrasensitive immunoassay method for cancer biomarker detection using biosynthesized quantum dots (BQDs) with inherent electrochemical and electrochemiluminescent properties.
研究成果
The biosynthesized quantum dots (BQDs) enable the development of new electrochemical biosensors through DPV, EIS, and ECL as transduction methods to detect ultra-lower levels of PSA. The concept could be expanded for ultrasensitive detection of important disease markers, contributing to new opportunities for bioanalysis and clinical diagnostics.
研究不足
The study focuses on PSA as a model analyte; applicability to other biomarkers needs further exploration. The biosynthesized QDs' brightness is weak, which may limit fluorescent detection sensitivity.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study utilized biosynthesized quantum dots (BQDs) for immunoassay, leveraging their inherent properties for antibody conjugation and electrode modification.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
S. aureus was used as the template for biosynthesizing the QDs. Human prostate-specific antigen (PSA) was used as a model analyte.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Instruments included a Nikon microscope, CyroFLEX S flow cytometer, Malvern Zetasizer Nano ZS 90, Multiskan GO, Autolab electrochemical workstation, and MPI-A ECL analyzer. Materials included S. aureus, various chemicals for BQD preparation, and antibodies for immunoassay.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
BQDs were prepared using S. aureus, characterized, and then used to fabricate immunosensors for PSA detection via electrochemical and ECL measurements.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
Data were analyzed using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and ECL measurements.
