Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of nanomaterials and food science, and particularly relates to a device and method for detecting aflatoxin in a dual mode. BACKGROUND

[0002] Aflatoxin is a kind of mycotoxin with the widest distribution, the strongest toxicity and the greatest harm. It is mainly distributed in cereals, nuts and their processed products, and is metabolized by Aspergillus flavus and parasitic Aspergillus under humid conditions. Aflatoxin has very good thermal stability and is difficult to destroy. It is not easy to decompose by using cooking methods and conventional thermal processing methods. The contamination of aflatoxin in grain and its processed products can cause liver cancer and esophageal cancer.

[0003] At present, the methods for detecting aflatoxin include enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, high performance liquid chromatography and thin layer chromatography, which are based on single signal detection methods and are easily disturbed by coexisting substances, various instruments and non-standard analysis procedures.

[0004] Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is an ultra-sensitive and rapid detection technology, which has a unique molecular structure fingerprint and can significantly amplify the Raman signal, and even realize the ultra-sensitive detection of single molecules. However, due to the uneven dispersion of the substrate, the reproducibility and stability are relatively poor sometimes. Fluorescence is an electronic transition phenomenon produced by the internal molecules of a substance. After adding a target analyte to the fluorescent substance, fluorescence quenching or enhancement can occur. According to the degree of fluorescence quenching or enhancement, quantitative analysis of the analyte can be realized. The detection limit is low, the analysis is real-time and rapid, the detection range is large, and the cost is low. The advantages and disadvantages of the two are complementary. Therefore, the combination of SERS and fluorescence can improve the reliability and accuracy of detection, and broaden the detection range, and better verify the detection results of each other.

[0023] According to the sequence of S1-S5, the magnetic force of each electromagnet changes due to the change of current, and the magnetic force changes in the order from large to small, finally making the magnetic particles in the cuvette uniformly swing;

[0024] In S1-S5, on represents starting, off represents closing, and on- represents weakening the current.

[0025] The lifting system 4 comprises a lifting screw 4-1 and a cuvette fixing plate 4-2; the cuvette fixing plate 4-2 is threadedly matched with the lifting screw 4-1, the height of the cuvette fixing plate 4-2 is modified by rotating the lifting screw 4-1, and the cuvette above is lifted.

[0026] The fixing device 5 comprises a bottom plate 5-1, a fixing piece 5-2, and a clamping device 5-3; the clamping device 5-3 is fixed on the bottom plate 5-1 through the fixing piece 5-2;

[0027] The lifting screw 4-1 is fixed on the bottom plate 5-1; the clamping device 5-3 is used for clamping and fixing the electromagnetic vortex SERS detection probe 2-3.

[0028] A method for detecting aflatoxin in a dual-mode manner: first, place the sample cuvette to be detected on the cuvette fixing plate 4-2, and then lift it to a suitable position through the lifting screw 4-1; in order to facilitate detection, the cuvette is installed at a proper position through the cuvette fixing plate 4-2 and the cuvette fixing piece 1-2;

[0029] The fluorescence signal acquisition system 1 and the SERS signal acquisition system 2 are installed on the upper and lower sides of the detection table through the fixing device 5, and the fluorescence signal acquisition system 1 is located at more than 2 / 3 of the cuvette, and the SERS signal acquisition system 2 is located at less than 1 / 3, so that the fluorescence detection on the upper side and the SERS signal measurement on the lower side can be realized at the same time; the fluorescence signal acquisition system 1 and the SERS spectrum acquisition system 2 are opened at the same time; the bimodal detection of aflatoxin is started, the fluorescence signal detection is carried out through the fluorescence light source 1-1 to emit light, the light transmits through the cuvette, the fluorescence signal is received at the other end, and after the pre-processing of the fluorescence spectrometer 3-1 in the signal processing system 3, the signal is input to the computer 3-2, so that the fluorescence signal acquisition and output are completed;

[0030] At the same time, the electromagnetic eddy current SERS detection probe 2-3 is controlled by the controller and circulates in sequence according to steps S1-S5, due to the current change, the magnetic force of each electromagnet changes, the magnetic force changes in sequence from large to small, and finally the magnetic particles in the cuvette are uniformly shaken, so that the signal detected at this time is more uniform and more representative; the SERS laser 2-1 emits a fixed wavelength laser, the SERS detection device 2-2 detects the sample, the SERS spectrometer 3-3 pre-processes the information fed back by the SERS probe 2-3, and the pre-processed signal is transmitted to the computer 3-2; the fluorescence signal acquisition system 1 and the SERS signal acquisition system 2 acquire information, and the signal processing system 3 processes the information for final processing and output.

[0042] The application will be further described in detail below in combination with examples and drawings, but the implementation method of the application is not limited thereto.

[0043] The specific conditions not mentioned in the embodiments of the application are carried out according to conventional conditions or the conditions recommended by the manufacturer. The raw materials, reagents and the like used without mentioning the manufacturer are all conventional products that can be purchased on the market.

[0044] (1) Synthesis of MNP@Ag-PEI

[0045] Firstly, MNP (ZnFe2O4) was prepared by EG / EDG double hot solvent method; then a layer of positive polyethyleneimine (PEI) was adsorbed on the surface (negative) of MNP, and then a layer of negative AuNPs was connected on the surface of MNP@PEI; with AuNPs as seed site, a layer of silver shell was modified on the surface of MNP@PEI by silver-ammonia reaction, forming MNP@Ag, and the thickness and shape of the silver shell were controlled by controlling the amount of AgNO3 added. Then different volumes (50, 100, 200, 300 and 400 μL) of PEI (5 mg / mL) were mixed with the prepared MNP@Ag (400 μL), and ultrasonic was performed for 30 minutes to form MNP@Ag-PEI microspheres. After washing with ultrapure water for five times, the obtained MNP@Ag-PEI microspheres were finally diluted with ultrapure water to 400 μL.

[0046] (2) Detection of actual samples

[0047] For the detection of AFB1in real samples, three uncontaminated nuts (peanuts, walnuts and almonds) were first selected as pretreated real samples. Then, the three samples were ground into powder, respectively, and weighed to 5 g, respectively. Next, 100 μL of AFB1solution (100 μg / mL) was added to the three powders (5 g) and left for 30 minutes, respectively, and the powder of each nut was dissolved in a mixture of methanol and ultrapure water (Vmethanol:Vwater = 4:1, total volume 9.9 mL), respectively, and then ultrasonicated for 30 minutes to assist extraction, and after centrifugation at 12000 rpm for 30 minutes, 15 mg of GBC and 400 mg of PSA were added to 3 mL of supernatant, respectively, and then shaken (1200 rpm) for 10 minutes to remove excess pigments, organic acids and fats. After centrifugation at 8000 rpm for 5 minutes, the supernatant was filtered using a 0.22 μm micro membrane sterile syringe filter. The same volume of apt-cy5 (10 μM) was mixed with the filtered supernatant, and then Tris-HCl (pH 7.4) was added to make the total volume 215 μL. After incubation for the same time, the solution was transferred to a cuvette, which was placed on the cuvette fixing plate 4-2, and was raised to the appropriate position by the lifting support rod 4-1. At the same time, the fluorescence signal acquisition system 1 and the SERS spectrum acquisition system 2 were turned on. The fluorescence spectrum was measured at an excitation wavelength of 590 nm using a fluorescence spectrophotometer, and the SERS spectrum was measured at a laser of 785 nm using a laser confocal Raman microscope system. After the fluorescence light source 1-1 emitted light, the light passed through the cuvette and was received at the other end, and after processing by the fluorescence spectrometer 3-1 in the signal processing system 3, the processed signal was transmitted to the computer 3-2, and the fluorescence signal acquisition and output were completed. On the other hand, the electromagnetic eddy current SERS detection probe 2-3, under the condition of power supply, realized the uniform rotation of the magnetic particles around the SERS probe in the cuvette through the design of the electromagnet program, so that the signal detected at this time was more uniform and more representative. After the SERS laser 2-1 emitted a fixed wavelength laser, the SERS detection device 2-2 and the SERS probe 2-3 detected the sample, and then the signal was pre-processed by the SERS spectrometer 3-3 in the signal processing system 3 and transmitted to the computer 3-2, and the SERS spectrum acquisition and output were completed. Finally, the output and summary of the double signals were completed on the computer 3-2.

[0048] Based on the optimized detection conditions, the sensitivity of the dual signal aptamer sensor was determined by introducing a series of AFB1standard solutions with different concentrations.

[0049] The common fluorescent dye cy5 can be used as a fluorophore to display fluorescence signal and as a Raman beacon to display SERS signal. The specific binding between AFB1 and cy5-modified aptamer (apt-cy5) can regulate SERS and fluorescence intensity and show completely opposite signal changes. Therefore, the linear relationship between AFB1 concentration can be obtained according to the decrease of SERS intensity and the increase of fluorescence intensity, and thus a SERS-fluorescence dual-signal aptamer sensor is successfully constructed to quantitatively detect AFB1.

[0050] Figure 6 (A) is the SERS spectrum of the dual-signal sensor for detecting AFB1 standard solution. As can be seen from the figure, the SERS intensity of cy5 gradually decreases with the increase of AFB1 concentration. Figure 6 (B) is the linear relationship between the logarithmic concentration of AFB1 standard solution and the SERS intensity at 1467 cm -1 -1. The linear regression equation is y=-1038.15x+3416.54, the correlation coefficient R 2 is 0.9980, and the linear range is 0.001-1000 ng / mL. On this basis, the LOD and LOQ are calculated as 0.45 pg / mL and 1.499 pg / mL, respectively.

[0051] The fluorescence peak of cy5 is at 668 nm, so the fluorescence intensity at 668 nm is selected for linear regression analysis. Figure 7 (A) is the fluorescence spectrum of the dual-signal sensor for detecting AFB1 standard solution. As can be seen from the figure, the fluorescence intensity of cy5 in the supernatant gradually increases with the increase of AFB1 concentration. Figure 7 (B) is the linear relationship between the logarithmic concentration of AFB1 standard solution and the fluorescence intensity at 668 nm. The calculated linear regression equation is y=1083.83x+1128.24, the correlation coefficient R 2 =0.9904, and it is linearly proportional to the logarithmic concentration of AFB1 standard solution in the linear range of 0.2-2×10 4 ng / mL. The calculated LOD is 0.135 ng / mL, and the LOQ is 0.450 ng / mL.

[0052] Finally, the feasibility of the sensor in real sample determination was explored by recovery experiments with spiked AFB1 in nut samples. The determination results of real samples are shown in Table 1. Both SERS and fluorescence methods showed satisfactory recoveries, with recoveries of 95.2%-108.6% for SERS and 94.7%-109.7% for fluorescence, and RSD values of both methods not more than 9.7%, confirming the accuracy of the dual-signal aptasensor. In addition, the coefficient of variation (CV) of the dual-signal aptasensor in detecting real samples was calculated and compared with the CV value obtained by combining the measurement results of SERS and fluorescence data (SERS + FL) to further confirm the advantages of the dual-signal aptasensor in use. As shown in Table 1 and Figs. (A), (B), the CV values obtained by combining the two measurement data (SERS + FL) are mostly between the independent fluorescence and independent SERS methods, thus effectively proving that the dual-signal aptasensor can verify the detection results of SERS and fluorescence methods, thereby better improving the detection accuracy and proving the advantages of the dual-signal aptasensor. Figure 8 (A), (B), the CV values obtained by combining the two measurement data (SERS + FL) are mostly between the independent fluorescence and independent SERS methods, thus effectively proving that the dual-signal aptasensor can verify the detection results of SERS and fluorescence methods, thereby better improving the detection accuracy and proving the advantages of the dual-signal aptasensor.

[0053] (3) Statistical analysis

[0054] The measurement conditions for all SERS spectra were: 785 nm excitation laser source, power of 100 mV, collection time of 10 s, and recording five times. Similarly, all fluorescence spectra were collected three times under the following conditions: excitation wavelength of 590 nm, scanning range of 620-720 nm, and scanning speed of 600 nm / min. The average value ± its standard deviation was used as the SERS and fluorescence intensity. At the same time, all other experimental measurements were made in triplicate, and the final results were expressed as the average value ± standard deviation. The particle size distribution of MNP, AuNPs, MNP@AuNPs, and MNP@Ag was performed by Nano Measurer 1.2 software (Chemistry Department, Fudan University, China). All data were analyzed and processed by Excel 2016 and Origin 2019b software (OriginLab Co., MA, USA).

[0055] Finally, the limit of detection (LOD) and the limit of quantification (LOQ) were calculated by the following formula:

[0056] Y LOD = 3S0 + Y0 (1);

[0057] LOQ = 3.33 LOD (2);

[0058] wherein S0 represents the standard deviation of SERS or fluorescence intensity in a blank sample, and Y0 represents the average SERS or fluorescence intensity of the blank sample.
