Aptamer functionalized microcantilever sensors for cocaine detection

A cocaine-specific aptamer was used as a receptor molecule in a microcantilever-based surface stress sensor for detection of cocaine molecules. An interferometric technique that relies on measuring differential displacement between two microcantilevers (a sensing/reference pair) was utilized to measure the cocaine/aptamer binding induced surface stress changes. Sensing experiments were performed for different concentrations of cocaine from 25 to 500 μM in order to determine the sensor response as a function of cocaine concentration. In the lower concentration range from 25 to 100 μM, surface stress values increased proportionally to coverage of aptamer/cocaine complexes from 11 to 26 mN/m. However, as the cocaine concentration was increased beyond 100 μM, the surface stress values demonstrated a weaker dependence on the affinity complex surface coverage. On the basis of a sensitivity of 3 mN/m for the surface stress measurement, the lowest detectable threshold for the cocaine concentration is estimated to be 5 μM. Sensing cantilevers could be regenerated and reused because of reversible thermal denaturation of aptamer.     

Nanomechanics of the formation of DNA self-assembled monolayers and hybridization on microcantilevers

Biomolecular interactions over the surface of a microcantilever can produce its bending motion via changes of the surface stress, which is referred to nanomechanical response. Here, we have studied the interaction forces responsible for the bending motion during the formation of a self-assembled monolayer of thiolated 27-mer single-stranded DNA on the gold-coated side of a microcantilever and during the subsequent hybridization with the complementary nucleic acid. The immobilization of the single-stranded DNA probe gives a mean surface stress of 25 mN/m and a mean bending of 23 nm for microcantilevers with a length and thickness of about 200 microm and 0.8 microm, respectively. The hybridization with the complementary sequence could not be inferred from the nanomechanical response. The nanomechanical response was compared with data from well-established techniques such as surface plasmon resonance and radiolabeling, to determine the surface coverage and study the intermolecular forces between neighboring DNA molecules anchored to the microcantilever surface. From both techniques, an immobilization surface density of 3 x 10(12) molecules/cm(2) and a hybridization efficiency of 40% were determined. More importantly, label-free hybridization was clearly detected in the same conditions with a conventional sensor based on surface plasmon resonance. The results imply that the nanomechanical signal during the immobilization process arises mainly from the covalent attachment to the gold surface, and the interchain interactions between neighboring DNA molecules are weak, producing an undetectable surface stress. We conclude that detection of nucleic acid hybridization with nanomechanical sensors requires reference cantilevers to remove nonspecific signals, more sensitive microcantilever geometries, and immobilization chemistries specially addressed to enhance the surface stress variations.     

Detection of Bacillus subtilis spores using peptide-functionalized cantilever arrays

We move beyond antibody-antigen binding systems and demonstrate that short peptide ligands can be used to efficiently capture Bacillus subtilis (a simulant of Bacillus anthracis) spores in liquids. On an eight-cantilever array chip, four cantilevers were coated with binding peptide (NHFLPKV-GGGC) and the other four were coated with control peptide (LFNKHVP-GGGC) for reagentless detection of whole B. subtilis spores in liquids. The peptide-ligand-functionalized microcantilever chip was mounted onto a fluid cell filled with a B. subtilis spore suspension for approximately 40 min; a 40 nm net differential deflection was observed. Fifth-mode resonant frequency measurements were also performed before and after dipping microcantilever arrays into a static B. subtilis solution showing a substantial decrease in frequency for binding-peptide-coated microcantilevers as compared to that for control peptide cantilevers. Further confirmation was obtained by subsequent examination of the microcantilever arrays under a dark-field microscope. Applications of this technology will serve as a platform for the detection of pathogenic organisms including biowarfare agents.

Aptamer-based Biosensor for Detection of Phenylalanine at Physiological pH

A simple, sensitive aptamer-based biosensor for the detection of phenylalanine is developed using the electrochemical transduction method. For this proposed aptasensor, a 5-thiol-terminated aptamer is covalently attached onto a gold electrode. At the first time, the electrode was evaluated as an electrochemical aptasensor for determination of phenylalanine in aqueous solutions. This sensor was tested in a Tris–HCl buffer with physiological pH?=?7.4 by cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry. The detection limit and sensitivity of the modified electrode toward phenylalanine were estimated to be 1 nM (S/N?=?3) and 0.367 μA nM^?1, respectively. The linear range of the signal was observed between 1 and 10 nM of phenylalanine with 0.9914 correlation factor. The herein-described approach is expected to promote the exploitation of aptamer-based biosensors for protein assays in biochemical and biomedical studies.

The immunosensor was fabricated by modifying clenbuterol–ovalbumin on the gold surface of the microcantilever with crossing linkage by L-cysteine and glutaraldehyde. Atomic force microscopy was utilized to characterize the construction of immunosensor and to measure the deflection of the microcantilever. The deflection response of the microcantilever was in negatively proportional to the concentration of clenbuterol from 1.0?×?10^?2 to 20?µg/L with a limit of detection of 1.0?×?10^?2?µg/L. The fabricated immunosensor was used to determine clenbuterol in pork samples with satisfactory results. In addition, the results were in accordance with those obtained by high-performance liquid chromatography. The reported immunosensor displayed high sensitivity and specificity together with excellent repeatability and reliability.

Label-free aptamer-based electrochemical impedance biosensor for 17β-estradiol

A novel aptamer-based label-free electrochemical impedance spectroscopy biosensor for 17β-estradiol has been fabricated. The aptamers were firstly immobilized on the gold electrode through Au-S interaction; the aptamer probe was then bound with the addition of 17β-estradiol to form the estradiol/aptamer complex on the electrode surface. This leads to a significantly larger interfacial electron transfer resistance than that without the addition of 17β-estradiol. The change in the resistance had a linear relationship with 17β-estradiol concentration in the range of 1.0 × 10(-8) to 1.0 × 10(-11) mol L(-1), with a detection limit of 2.0 × 10(-12) mol L(-1). The biosensor showed high selectivity to 17β-estradiol and good stability. The designed biosensor has been applied to detect 17β-estradiol in human urine with satisfactory results.
