Arginine kinase (AK) is one of the most important allergens in shrimp products. Herein, a novel immunoassay for quantitation of AK was developed using the antibody modified gold nanoparticle (AuNP) and quantum dot (QD). When the first antibody modified AuNP (AuNP-Ab1) was bridged by AK with the secondary antibody modified QD (QD-Ab2), fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) would occur between the AuNP and QD, which led to a decrease in fluorescent signals. The decrease in fluorescence intensity was found to correlate linearly with the log of AK concentration in the range of 1.0 × 10-1.0 × 10 mg/mL (R = 0.9909) and the detection limit was 0.11 ng/mL. The immunoassay was further proved to have encouraging specificity, precision and accuracy. Compared with existing methods, this study provided a promising approach to develop a highly sensitive and selective detection method for AK in shrimp related food samples.
精氨酸激酶(AK)是虾类产品中最重要的过敏原之一。本文利用抗体修饰的金纳米粒子(AuNP)和量子点(QD)建立了一种用于定量检测 AK 的新型免疫分析方法。当第一抗体修饰的 AuNP(AuNP-Ab1)被 AK 桥接,与第二抗体修饰的 QD(QD-Ab2)结合时,AuNP 和 QD 之间会发生荧光共振能量转移(FRET),导致荧光信号减弱。荧光强度的降低与 AK 浓度的对数在 1.0×10-1.0×10 mg/mL 范围内呈线性相关(R=0.9909),检测限为 0.11 ng/mL。该免疫分析方法进一步证明具有令人鼓舞的特异性、精密度和准确性。与现有方法相比,本研究为开发虾类相关食品中 AK 的高灵敏度和选择性检测方法提供了一种很有前景的方法。
