研究目的
To develop an ultrasensitive homogeneous aptasensor for the detection of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) and graphene oxide (GO).
研究成果
The developed UC-FRET aptasensor exhibited excellent sensitivity and specificity for CEA detection in both aqueous solutions and human serum, with detection limits significantly lower than previous reports. The results strongly correlated with commercial chemiluminescence kits, suggesting potential for clinical application.
研究不足
The study may face limitations in terms of the complexity of serum samples affecting the standard deviation of results and the need for further validation in clinical settings.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study utilized FRET between UCNPs and GO for CEA detection, leveraging the π-π stacking interaction between CEA aptamer and GO.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
CEA aptamer modified UCNPs were used as energy donors, and GO as energy acceptors. Human serum samples were used for practical application testing.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Included PAA-coated NaYF4: Yb, Er UCNPs, GO, CEA aptamer, and various chemicals for synthesis and conjugation.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Involved synthesis of PAA-UCNPs, conjugation of CEA aptamer to UCNPs, fluorescence quenching and recovery experiments, and CEA detection in buffer and serum.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Fluorescence spectra were recorded to analyze the FRET efficiency and CEA concentration-dependent fluorescence recovery.
