title: Direct introduction of a hydrazide group into a quartz crystal microbalance surface with dodecanoic hydrazide embedded in a hybrid bilayer membrane.
abstract: Hydrazide group has a potential of immobilizing an antibody on a sensor surface in a way that ensures an optimal orientation and efficiency of the antibody. However, a multi-step chemical process, required for the preparation of a hydrazide group, is a barrier to its extensive application. This paper describes a new method to introduce a hydrazide group to a sensor surface by a one-step process using dodecanoic hydrazide. The method is based on an ability of the dodecanoic hydrazide to be incorporated into a hybrid bilayer membrane (HBM) layer, thereby presenting its hydrazide group to the surface. Liposome containing dodecanoic hydrazide was added to a hydrophobic self-assembled monolayer surface of a quartz crystal microbalance for the formation of a HBM. Then, the hydrazide group, presented in the surface of the HBM layer, was utilized for the oriented immobilization of an antibody via its carbohydrate moiety which was partially oxidized prior to the conjugation reaction. Activity and stable status of the incorporated dodecanoic hydrazide was revealed by the efficiency and reproducibility of the resulting immunosensor chip.
