Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensing is a real-time detection technique for measuring biomolecular interactions on gold surfaces. This study presents a novel approach using nano-diamonds (NDs) on a gold nano-slit array to obtain an extraordinary transmission (EOT) spectrum for SPR biosensing. We used anti-bovine serum albumin (anti-BSA) to bind NDs for chemical attachment to a gold nano-slit array. The covalently bound NDs shifted the EOT response depending on their concentration. The number of ND-labeled molecules attached to the gold nano-slit array was quantified from the change in the EOT spectrum. The concentration of anti-BSA in the 35 nm ND solution sample was much lower than that in the anti-BSA-only sample (approximately 1/100). With the help of 35 nm NDs, we were able to use a lower concentration of analyte in this system and obtained better signal responses. The responses of anti-BSA-linked NDs had approximately a 10-fold signal enhancement compared to anti-BSA alone. This approach has the advantage of a simple setup and microscale detection area, which makes it suitable for applications in biochip technology.
表面等离子体共振(SPR)感测是一种实时检测技术,用于测量金表面上的生物分子相互作用。本研究提出了一种新的方法,使用金纳米狭缝阵列上的纳米金刚石(NDs)获得 SPR 生物传感的非凡透射(EOT)光谱。我们使用抗牛血清白蛋白(anti-BSA)将 NDs 结合以进行化学附着到金纳米狭缝阵列上。根据其浓度,共价结合的 NDs 改变了 EOT 响应。从 EOT 光谱的变化可以定量出附着在金纳米狭缝阵列上的 ND 标记分子的数量。在 35nm ND 溶液样品中,anti-BSA 的浓度比仅含有 anti-BSA 的样品低得多(约为 1/100)。借助 35nm NDs,我们能够在该系统中使用较低浓度的分析物,并获得更好的信号响应。与单独的 anti-BSA 相比,anti-BSA 连接的 NDs 的响应信号增强了约 10 倍。这种方法具有简单的设置和微尺度检测区域的优势,使其适用于生物芯片技术的应用。
