The emerging nanotechnology has opened new exciting opportunities to explore analytical applications of the freshly prepared nanostructured materials. Among them, metal-oxide-based nanowires or nanotubes attracted great attention due to their one-dimensional (1D) morphology, extraordinary physical and chemical properties, which offer great promise in the development of chemical sensing or biosensing, facilitating the great improvement of the selectivity and sensitivity of the current methods. In this review, the recent advances in the development of sensors including gas sensors, humidity sensors, and immunosensors using semiconducting metal-oxide-based nanowires or nanotubes are highlighted. Titanate (H(2)Ti(3)O(7)) nanotubes are of multilayered structures with a nanometer-scale inner-core cavity exposed to the outer surface and display different oxidation states with possible redox-activity, which make them attractive for sensing. Therefore, the use of titanate nanotubes for the development of electrochemical sensors is overviewed. Finally, the prospects and challenge in the further exploration of nanoscaled sensors are discussed.  相似文献

Immunosensors     
The current trends and future aspects of the research and development of immunosensors are overviewed. A non-labelled immunosensor, whose selectivity depends on immunochemical affinity of an antigen for its corresponding antibody, has been developed as the basis for the potentiometric determination of an antigen, with an antibody-bound membrane or electrode. Non-labelled immunosensors for syphilis antibody, blood typing, human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), and human serum albumin have been investigated. In contrast with non-labelled immunosensors, labelled immunosensors may be characterized by marked enhancement of sensitivity. Of these labelled immunosensors, enzyme immunosensors that use the chemical amplification of a labelling enzyme for sensitivity are promising. Enzyme immunosensors with an oxygen electrode have been developed to determine AFP, HCG, IgG and toxin. Bioaffinity sensors with a preformed metastable ligand-receptor complex, which are similar to the enzyme immunosensor have been found effective for the determination of thyroxine (T4), biotin, and insulin.  相似文献

The penicillin derivative amoxicillin (AMX) plays an important role in treating various types of infections caused by bacteria. However, excessive use of AMX may have negative health effects. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to detect and quantify the AMX in pharmaceutical drugs, biological fluids, and environmental samples with high sensitivity. Therefore, this review article provides valuable and up-to-date information on nanostructured material-based optical and electrochemical sensors to detect AMX in various biological and chemical samples. The role of using different nanostructured materials on the performance of important optical sensors such as colorimetric sensors, fluorescence sensors, surface-enhanced Raman scattering sensors, chemiluminescence/electroluminescence sensors, optical immunosensors, optical fibre-based sensors, and several important electrochemical sensors based on different electrode types have been discussed. Moreover, nanocomposites, polymer, and MXenes-based electrochemical sensors have also been discussed, in which such materials are being used to further enhance the sensitivity of these sensors. Furthermore, nanocomposite-based photo-electrochemical sensors and the market availability of biosensors including AMX have also been discussed briefly. Finally, the conclusion, challenges, and future perspectives of the above-mentioned sensing techniques for AMX detection are presented.  相似文献

Recently there has been much research effort directed towards the development of immunosensors. Optical technologies are currently proving very attractive for the construction of such sensors. The fluorescence capillary fill device (FCFD) has been designed to fulfil these needs. The development of an assay for human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) in the FCFD for a variety of body fluids (whole blood, serum, urine and saliva) demonstrates the versatility and assay performance of the device.  相似文献

Electrochemical and chemiluminescent immunosensors for tumor markers   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
The determination of serum tumor markers plays an important role in clinical diagnoses for the patients with certain tumor-associated disease. Although many commercial kits have been applied in clinical immunoassays, conventional methods always have some disadvantages, resulting in the need of other new, efficient, and easily automated methods. Immunosensors, considered as a major development in immunochemical field, have attracted considerable attention. With the aim of rapid screening, many immunosensors that are small, semi-automated and portable are being developed. This brief review focuses on the current research of immunosensors for tumor markers based on the electrochemical and chemiluminescent detection with emphasis on recent advances, challenges, and trends. The works on series of novel immunosensors developed for the determination of tumor markers in our group in the last few years are also introduced.  相似文献

A method for fabricating capillary-based immunosensors in a coupon milled from an inexpensive, commodity plastic (PMMA, plexiglass) is demonstrated. The key feature of the technique is the use of sol-gel technology to deposit a glass-like (Si [bond] OH) film on surfaces of the plastic capillary channels to facilitate antibody immobilization. The utility of this method was demonstrated in the context of continuous flow displacement immunosensors for the explosive hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX). These sensors exhibited sensitivity to low microg/l RDX concentrations and peak-to-peak signal variations that were generally less than 10% for multiple injections at a single RDX concentration. The useful lifetime of the coupons in these experiments was greater than 10 h even after multiple exposures to high (1000 microg/l) RDX levels. This sensor platform has the physical characteristics needed for a portable field instrument: small, light-weight, and rugged.  相似文献

Biosensors     
Biosensors are analytical devices that respond selectively to analytes in an appropriate sample and convert their concentration into an electrical signal via a combination of a biological recognition system and an electrochemical, optical or other transducer. Such devices will find application in medicine, agriculture, environmental monitoring and the bioprocessing industries. The last few years have seen great advances in the design of sensor architectures, the marriage of biological systems with monolithic silicon and optical technologies, the development of effective electron-transfer systems and the configuration of direct immunosensors. Recent progress in these areas has already led to the introduction of new-generation biosensors into the competitive diagnostics market place.  相似文献

With increasing reports on bioterrorism, avian flu, and other bio-threats, rapid and real time detection methods are highly warranted. Studies on developing highly sensitive immunosensors aiming at the early detection and clinical diagnoses of various diseases including cancer are undertaken all over the globe. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been widely discussed as materials with enormous potential for a wide range of in vivo and in vitro bioapplications, ranging from drug delivery to highly sensitive biosensors, owing to their superior electronic and mechanical properties along with nanoscale dimensions. Though a lot of attention has been drawn toward carbon nanotubes for the past 15 years in academia and to a certain extent in industry, CNT-based immunosensors and other applications are still in the nascent stage, and there are many challenges to be overcome for the successful commercialization of the concepts. This article highlights on the recent developments and the possible impacts of carbon nanotube based immunosensors.  相似文献

This paper reports on the development of immunosensors based on commercially available surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices working at 380 MHz. Approaches for coating the sensor surface with a sensing layer of receptive biomolecules are presented and discussed. It was found that the sensitivity strongly relates to the immobilization method. Additionally, the sensitivity can be influenced by the density of accessible biomolecules on the active sensing area. Usually, by most of the standard immobilization procedures, two-dimensional layers of receptive biomolecules are obtained. We present a three-dimensional layer, which provides a higher absolute amount of recognition molecules. A dextran layer is photoimmobilized to the sensor surface and the recognition molecules are covalently embedded into the dextran matrix. The feasibility of specific immunosensing is investigated using SAW sensors connected to a fluid handling system.  相似文献

Immunosensors are biosensors that use antibodies or antigens as the specific sensing element and provide concentration-dependent signals. There is great potential in the applications of immunosensing technologies for rapid detection of pesticide residues in food and environment. This paper presents an overview of various transduction systems, such as electrochemical, optical, piezoelectric, and nanomechanics methods, which have been reported in the literature in the design and fabrication of immunosensors for pesticide detection. Various immobilization protocols used for formation of a biorecognition interface are also discussed. In addition, techniques of regeneration, signal amplification, miniaturization, and antibodies are evaluated for the development and applications of these immunosensors. It can be concluded that despite some limitations of the immunosensing technologies, these immuosensors for pesticide monitoring are becoming more and more relevant in environmental and food analysis.  相似文献

Optical immunosensors employing evanescent wave techniques have the potential to address the requirements of the 'alternative site' market; however, this potential has yet to be realised. The development of 'direct' sensors, such as those using surface plasmon resonance (SPR), has been hampered by problems of non-specific binding and poor sensitivity to small molecules. 'Indirect' sensors (for example, those employing a fluorescently labelled reagent) overcome many of the problems of direct sensors but require more sophisticated instrumentation because of the low light levels detected. In an attempt to combine the best features of the two techniques, an indirect SPR fluoroimmunoassay (SPRF) technique has been investigated. The surface field intensity enhancement produced by SPR is used to boost the emission from a fluorescently labelled immunoassay complex at a metal surface. The potential of the method is demonstrated by assaying for human Chorionic Gonadotrophin (hCG) in serum. Enhanced sensitivity over conventional total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) and SPR techniques was achieved.  相似文献

The number of Adenovirus (Ad) infections detected in immunocompromised people has increased due to the number of patients receiving transplants, as well as the HIV pandemic. Ads cause life-threatening diseases specific to the infected organs of immunocompromised hosts, with discontinuation of immunosuppressive agents necessary to prevent morbidity. The methodology in this paper has been employed to develop a novel impedimetric based assay platform to detect and quantify human Ads, which is comparable in performance to current methods, such as ELISA and PCR, but is also less expensive and faster. Novel immunosensors have been fabricated using polyclonal antibodies raised against a human Ad (Ad5) capsid protein, which were selectively cleaved into antibody fragments by 2-mercaptoethylamine. The fragments were immobilized onto a functionalized conducting copolymer matrix comprising polyaniline and 2-aminobenzylamine. Fully fabricated sensors were incubated with two immunologically distinct serotypes of Ad, Ad5 and Ad3, with between 10 and 10(12)virus particles/mL prior to sensor interrogation. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was used to measure the charge transfer resistance of the sensors over a range of frequencies from 25 kHz to 0.1 Hz. Our data demonstrate that the immunosensors specifically detect, and differentiate between, closely related human Ad serotypes with a limit of detection of 10(3)virus particles/mL. In addition, atomic force microscopy was applied to study the sensor surface nanostructure. Future work looks to test virus containing clinical samples but this could be a viable and valuable alternative for point-of-care virus detection and quantification.  相似文献

Recently, immunosensors have attracted attention because they are widely applied for the detection of various pathogens. Among the commonly used immunosensors, the optical immunosensor features prominently as an effective tool for the quantification of the amount of antibodies, antigens, or haptens in complex samples with high sensitivity and specificity. However, very few studies provide comprehensive overviews of optical immunosensors. In this review, we present various methods and applications of optical immunosensors in pathogen detection. We introduced a concise definition of optical immunosensors and the principle of using them for detection. We subsequently discuss the main categories of optical immunosensors and their application to the detection of pathogens, as well as their advantages and limitations. Recent publications from 2006 to 2015 on variously designed optical immunosensors have also been updated. We conclude the review with a brief summary and discuss future directions of optical immunosensors.  相似文献

Fatty acid-binding protein (FABP) holds promise for early detection of tissue injury. This small protein (15 kD) appears earlier in the blood than large proteins after cell damage. Combined its characteristics of high concentration tissue contents and low normal plasma values provide the possibility of a rapid rise above the respective reference values, and thus an early indication of the appearance of tissue injury. A general review was presented on the current status of different types of FABP for the detection of tissue injury in patients with myocardial injury, brain injury and also in athletes or horses with skeletal muscle injury.

To take full advantage of the characteristics of the early marker FABP, rapid analysis is a crucial parameter. In this review, an overview of the development of immunoassay for the quantification of FABP in buffer, plasma or whole blood was outlined. The characteristics of different FABP immunosensors and immunotests were described. The feasibility of these immunoassays to be used in routine clinical practice and in emergency case was also discussed.

Nowadays, the improved automated immunoassays (e.g. a microparticle-enhanced turbidimetric immunoassay), less time-consuming bedside immunosensors and immunotests (e.g. a one-step FABP lateral flow immunotest), are the main advance technology in point-of-care testing. With these point-of-care tests, the application of FABP as an early tissue injury marker has a great potential for many clinical purposes.  相似文献
