Abstract

Micromotors with self-propelling ability demonstrate great values in highly sensitive analysis. Developing novel micromotors to achieve label-free multiplex assay is particularly intriguing in terms of detection efficiency. Herein, structural color micromotors (SCMs) were developed and employed for this purpose. The SCMs were derived from phase separation of droplet templates and exhibited a Janus structure with two distinct sections, including one with structural colors and the other providing catalytic self-propelling functions. Besides, the SCMs were functionalized with ion-responsive aptamers, through which the interaction between the ions and aptamers resulted in the shift of the intrinsic color of the SCMs. It was demonstrated that the SCMs could realize multiplex label-free detection of ions based on their optical coding capacity and responsive behaviors. Moreover, the detection sensitivity was greatly improved benefiting from the autonomous motion of the SCMs which enhanced the ion-aptamer interactions. We anticipate that the SCMs can significantly promote the development of multiplex assay and biomedical fields.

摘要

具有自推进能力的微马达在高灵敏度分析中显示出巨大价值。开发新型微马达以实现无标记多重检测在检测效率方面尤其引人关注。在此,开发了结构色微马达(SCMs)并将其用于此目的。SCMs源自液滴模板的相分离,呈现出具有两个不同部分的 Janus 结构,其中一部分具有结构色,另一部分提供催化自推进功能。此外,SCMs 用离子响应适配体进行功能化,离子与适配体之间的相互作用导致 SCMs 固有颜色的变化。结果表明,SCMs 基于其光学编码能力和响应行为能够实现离子的无标记多重检测。此外,由于 SCMs 的自主运动增强了离子 - 适配体相互作用,检测灵敏度大大提高。我们预计 SCMs 能够显著推动多重检测和生物医学领域的发展。
