Fluorescence enhancement of CdTe quantum dots by HBcAb-HRP for sensitive detection of H2O2in human serum.
A simple, high selective, ultra-sensitive and stable biosensor based on hepatitis B core antibody labeled with horseradish peroxidase (HBcAb-HRP) induced fluorescent enhancement of CdTe QDs for recognition of H2O2have been constructed. In this assay, sulfurs in HBcAb-HRP, which possess a strong affinity towards Cd2+, can improve greatly the recombination fluorescence of CdTe QDs by creating more radiative centers at CdTe/Cd-SR complex. Then, H2O2oxidizes Cd-S bonds in CdTe QDs to organic disulfide product (RS-SR), causing thioglycolic acid (TGA) and HBcAb-HRP detach from surface of CdTe QDs and thus leading to fluorescence quenching. Just with the addition of HBcAb-HRP, sensitivity of the new biosensor has been improved by near one order of magnitude as compared with CdTe QDs probe. Detection limit of HBcAb-HRP-CdTe QDs biosensor for determination of H2O2was 6.9×10-8mol L-1(3σ/slope), and the excellent linear range was 1.0×10-7~1.5×10-4molL-1. By using sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (DDTC) and NH4OH as masking agents of Ag+, Hg2+and Cu2+, H2O2can be selectively detected in coexistence with Ag+, Hg2+and Cu2+, and the biosensor has been used to detect H2O2in human serum with satisfactory results. The superior properties of this biosensor showed great potential usage in more chemical and biological researches.
