A novel DNA-stabilized silver nanoclusters (AgNCs)-based label-free fluorescent platform for simultaneously detecting two human immunodeficiency virus oligonucleotides (HIV DNAs) was developed. The sensing platform was established based on fluorescence enhancement of guanine (G)-rich and the phenomenon in the process of two silver nanoclusters (AgNCs) forming a nanoclusters dimer. The probe (AgNCs/G) utilized for HIV-1 detection adopted an effective conformation based on enhancement effect of G-rich sequence (at 500 nm ex / 565 nm em) while the probe (AgNCs/AgNCs) for HIV-2 generated fluorescence signals (at 580 nm ex / 630 nm em) with bright fluorescence only in nanoclusters dimer. The nanoprobe shows high selectivity for multiplexed analysis of target DNA with a detection limit of 11 pM, respectively. Moreover, this is the first time to use the affectivity of fluorescent AgNCs and two HIV DNAs simultaneous detection integrated into a novel method, which shows a great promise in biomedical research and early clinical diagnosis.
开发了一种基于新型DNA稳定银纳米簇(AgNCs)的无标记荧光平台,用于同时检测两种人类免疫缺陷病毒寡核苷酸(HIV DNA)。该传感平台基于富含鸟嘌呤(G)的荧光增强以及两个银纳米簇(AgNCs)形成纳米簇二聚体过程中的现象而建立。用于HIV-1检测的探针(AgNCs/G)基于富含G序列的增强效应(在500nm激发/565nm发射)采用了有效的构象,而用于HIV-2的探针(AgNCs/AgNCs)仅在纳米簇二聚体中产生具有明亮荧光的荧光信号(在580nm激发/630nm发射)。该纳米探针在对目标DNA进行多重分析时显示出高选择性,检测限分别为11 pM。此外,这是首次将荧光AgNCs的有效性与两种HIV DNA的同时检测整合到一种新方法中,这在生物医学研究和早期临床诊断中显示出巨大的前景。
