Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) as the most toxic mycotoxin in contaminated food can greatly threaten human health, and sensitive and selective detection of AFB1 is thus highly desired. An ultrasensitive surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) aptasensor was developed for AFB1 detection in peanut oil samples. SH-cDNA modified FeO@Au nanoflowers acted as capture probes, SH-Apt modified Au@Ag nanospheres and commercial Cy3-Apt were used as reporter probes. Strong SERS signals of reporter probes were produced due to the recognition of AFB1 aptamer and its complementary strand (SH-cDNA). With the preferred binding of AFB1 aptamer to AFB1, reporter probes were released from capture probes, causing a linear decrease in SERS intensity. Therefore an ultralow detection limit of 0.40 pg·mL in a wide linear range of 0.0001-100 ng·mL was obtained and the sensibility of this SERS aptasensor was higher than that of the Cy3-Apt based SERS aptasensor. In addition, an excellent selectivity in interfering toxins and satisfactory recoveries of 96.6-115% in peanut oil samples were obtained, proving this aptasensor is a promising analytical tool in AFB1 detection.
黄曲霉毒素 B1(AFB1)作为污染食品中最具毒性的霉菌毒素,极大地威胁着人类健康,因此,人们非常希望能够对其进行敏感和选择性检测。本研究开发了一种用于花生油样品中 AFB1 检测的超灵敏表面增强拉曼光谱(SERS)适体传感器。SH-cDNA 修饰的 FeO@Au 纳米花作为捕获探针,SH-Apt 修饰的 Au@Ag 纳米球和商用 Cy3-Apt 作为报告探针。由于 AFB1 适体及其互补链(SH-cDNA)的识别,报告探针产生了强的 SERS 信号。由于 AFB1 适体与 AFB1 的优先结合,报告探针从捕获探针上释放出来,导致 SERS 强度线性下降。因此,在 0.0001-100ng·mL 的较宽线性范围内,获得了 0.40pg·mL 的超低检测限,并且该 SERS 适体传感器的灵敏度高于基于 Cy3-Apt 的 SERS 适体传感器。此外,该适体传感器在干扰毒素方面具有优异的选择性,在花生油样品中的回收率为 96.6-115%,证明该适体传感器是一种有前途的 AFB1 检测分析工具。
