SERS Immunoassay Based on an Enzyme-Catalyzed Cascade Reaction and Metal–Organic Framework/Alkaline Phosphatase for Ultrasensitive Detection of Adenosine Triphosphate

Le résumé fourni par la source

Herein, an adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-induced enzyme-catalyzed cascade reaction system based on metal–organic framework/alkaline phosphatase (MOF/ALP) nanocomposites was designed to establish a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) biosensor for use in rapid, sensitive ATP detection. Numerous ALP molecules were first encapsulated using ZIF-90 to temporarily deactivate the enzyme activity, similar to a lock. Au nanostars (AuNSs), as SERS-enhancing substrates, were combined with o -phenylenediamine (OPD) to form AuNSs@OPD, which could significantly improve the Raman signal of OPD. When the target ATP interacted with the MOF/ALP nanocomposites, ATP could act as a key to open the MOF structure, releasing ALP, which should further catalyze the conversion of OPD to oxOPD with the aid of ascorbic acid 2-phosphate. Therefore, with the increasing concentrations of ATP, more ALP was released to catalyze the conversion of OPD, resulting in the reduced intensity of the Raman peak at 1262 cm –1, corresponding to the level of OPD. Based on this principle, the ATP-induced enzyme-catalyzed cascade reaction SERS biosensor enabled the ultrasensitive detection of ATP, with a low detection limit of 0.075 pM. Consequently, this study provides a novel strategy for use in the ultrasensitive, rapid detection of ATP, which displays considerable potential for application in the fields of biomedicine and disease diagnosis.
