Abstract: | A surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-immunosensor for detection of the low molecular weight compound 2,4-dinitorophenol (DNP) at ultra-low concentration has been developed. The sensor strategy is based on a competitive immunoreaction between DNP and a DNP-protein conjugate, namely DNP-bovine serum albumin conjugate (DNP-BSA). Anti-DNP monoclonal antibody was immobilized on a gold thin-film coated SPR-sensor chip by means of a chemical coupling process. DNP-BSA, on contact with the anti-DNP antibody immobilized SPR-immunosensor chip causes an increase in the resonance angle of the sensor chip. The optimum concentration of immobilized antibody on the SPR-sensor chip is 100 μg mL−1. The SPR-immunosensor response for free DNP determination using the competitive immunoreaction had a response time of ca. 15 min. Using this method, DNP could be determined in the concentration range 1 ppt to 1 ppb. The SPR signal for ppt levels of DNP was enhanced by a factor of three by subsequently treating immuno-bound DNP-BSA with a secondary anti-DNP antibody. |
