Abstract

A cost-effective, deployable, and quantitative progesterone biosensor is desirable for regular progesterone sensing in biological and environmental samples to safeguard public health. Aptasensors have been shown to be affordable as compared to antibody-based sensors, but so far, none of the progesterone aptamers could detect it in undiluted and unprocessed biological samples. Thus, to select an aptamer suitable for biosensing in unprocessed biological samples, a modified magnetic bead-based approach with counter-selection in milk and serum was performed. G-quadruplex forming progesterone aptamers were preferentially screened through in silico, gold nanoparticle-based adsorption-desorption assay and circular dichroism spectroscopy. GQ5 aptamer showed extended stability and a high progesterone binding affinity ( 5.29 ± 2.9 nM) as compared to any other reported progesterone aptamers (P4G11 and P4G13). Under optimized conditions, GQ5 aptamer was coated on the gold electrode to develop an impedimetric aptasensor (limit of detection: 0.53, 0.91, and 1.9 ng/mL in spiked buffer, undiluted milk, and serum, respectively, with the dynamic range of detection from 0.1 to 50 ng/mL in buffer and 0.1 to 30 ng/mL in both milk and serum). The aptasensor exhibited a very high level of κ value (>0.9) with ELISA to detect progesterone in milk and serum. The aptasensor could be regenerated three times and can be stored for up to 10 days at 4 °C. Therefore, GQ5 may be used to develop a portable impedimetric aptasensor for clinical and on-site progesterone sensing in various biological and environmental samples.

摘要

为了保障公众健康,在生物和环境样本中定期检测孕酮,需要一种经济高效、可部署且定量的孕酮生物传感器。与基于抗体的传感器相比,适配体传感器已被证明成本较低,但到目前为止,尚无一种孕酮适配体能在未稀释和未处理的生物样本中检测到孕酮。因此,为了选择一种适合在未处理生物样本中进行生物传感的适配体,采用了一种基于磁珠的改良方法,并在牛奶和血清中进行反选。通过计算机模拟、基于金纳米颗粒的吸附-解吸测定和圆二色光谱,优先筛选出形成G-四链体的孕酮适配体。与任何其他已报道的孕酮适配体(P4G11和P4G13)相比,GQ5适配体表现出更长的稳定性和较高的孕酮结合亲和力(5.29±2.9 nM)。在优化条件下,将GQ5适配体包被在金电极上,开发出一种阻抗型适配体传感器(加标缓冲液、未稀释牛奶和血清中的检测限分别为0.53、0.91和1.9 ng/mL,缓冲液中的检测动态范围为0.1至50 ng/mL,牛奶和血清中的检测动态范围均为0.1至30 ng/mL)。该适配体传感器与酶联免疫吸附测定法检测牛奶和血清中的孕酮时,表现出非常高的κ值(>0.9)。该适配体传感器可再生三次,在4℃下可保存长达10天。因此,GQ5可用于开发一种便携式阻抗型适配体传感器,用于在各种生物和环境样本中进行临床和现场孕酮传感。
