We have developed a photoluminescent membrane for microRNA detection, consisting of chemically modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles (CaF2:Yb/Ho@MSNs) attached, via single stranded DNA probes, to flexible polyurethane fibres coated with graphene oxide (GO). By detecting the release of the luminescent nanoparticles resulting from complementary co-hybridization between target miRNA sequences and the DNA probe, accurate measurements of the miRNA concentration at high sensitivity levels can be obtained. The constructs therefore offer a route to rapid detection and the potential for early cancer diagnosis.
我们开发了一种用于 microRNA 检测的光致发光膜,它由通过单链 DNA 探针附着的化学修饰的介孔硅纳米粒子(CaF2:Yb/Ho@MSNs)组成,该探针附着在涂有氧化石墨烯(GO)的柔性聚氨酯纤维上。通过检测目标 miRNA 序列与 DNA 探针之间互补共杂交导致的发光纳米粒子的释放,可以在高灵敏度水平上获得 miRNA 浓度的准确测量。因此,这些构建物提供了快速检测的途径,并有可能进行早期癌症诊断。
