A novel photoprobe, Tb-acetylacetone (Tb-ACAC) doped within a modified epoxy cellulose polymer immobilized with CA-125 monoclonal antibody, offers an accurate and highly selective method for early ovarian cancer (OC) diagnosis by detecting cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) in serum samples. This approach leverages quenching of the Tb-ACAC luminescence upon binding to CA-125. Characterization of the photoprobe film through UV-vis and fluorescence measurements confirmed the presence of Tb-ACAC within the polymer matrix. In aqueous solution (pH 6.8, λ = 365 nm), the characteristic emission band of Tb-ACAC at λ = 546.2 nm exhibited significant quenching upon CA-125 binding. This quenching effect enabled the sensitive and specific detection of CA-125 in diverse serum samples from OC patients, demonstrating the applicability, simplicity, and effectiveness of this novel approach.
一种新型光探针,即掺杂在固定有CA - 125单克隆抗体的改性环氧纤维素聚合物中的铽 - 乙酰丙酮(Tb - ACAC),通过检测血清样本中的癌抗原125(CA - 125),为早期卵巢癌(OC)诊断提供了一种准确且高度选择性的方法。该方法利用了Tb - ACAC与CA - 125结合时其发光的猝灭现象。通过紫外 - 可见光谱和荧光测量对光探针薄膜进行表征,证实了聚合物基质中存在Tb - ACAC。在水溶液(pH 6.8,λ = 365 nm)中,当与CA - 125结合时,Tb - ACAC在λ = 546.2 nm处的特征发射带表现出显著的猝灭。这种猝灭效应能够灵敏且特异地检测来自OC患者的各种血清样本中的CA - 125,证明了这种新方法的适用性、简便性和有效性。
