Catalytically active iron oxide nanoparticles are used as recognition elements and signal amplifiers for the array-based colorimetric sensing of proteins. Interactions between cationic monolayers on the Fe(3) O(4) NPs and analyte proteins differentially modulates the peroxidase-like activity of Fe(3) O(4) NPs, affording catalytically amplified colorimetric signal patterns that enable the detection and identification of proteins at 50 nM.
催化活性氧化铁纳米粒子可用作基于阵列的比色法蛋白质传感的识别元件和信号放大器。Fe(3)O(4) NPs 上的阳离子单层与分析物蛋白质之间的相互作用差异调节 Fe(3)O(4) NPs 的过氧化物酶样活性,提供可催化放大的比色信号模式,从而能够以 50 nM 的浓度检测和识别蛋白质。
