The invention discloses a convenient ATP (
adenosine triphosphate) content detecting method adopting pressure-sensitive paint as a
signal reading tool. Two fragments of
DNA capable of forming an ATP
aptamer are modified with a silica sphere with embedded nano
platinum particles and a
magnetic bead with embedded nano
platinum particles respectively. In the presence of ATP, a sandwich structure can be formed due to the specific recognition and combination of the two fragments of
DNA and ATP, and accordingly, nano
platinum is fixed on the
magnetic bead; the
magnetic bead is separated from a solution, the cleaned magnetic bead is subjected to a reaction with a
hydrogen peroxide solution in a closed container,
oxygen partial pressure can be increased through accumulation of
oxygen generated by
catalysis of
hydrogen peroxide, and the concentration of ATP is indirectly detected according to
fluorescence quenching degrees of different
oxygen partial pressure to the pressure-sensitive paint. The technology is successfully applied to the detection of ATP concentration in
human body serum; according to the detection, a fluorospectrophotometer is adopted as a detecting means, and naked eyes can also be directly used for colorimetric detection; the method has the advantages of being low in detection cost, easy to operate, accurate in
quantitative result, capable of realizing instant detection, convenient and the like.
