Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of protein detection in water, and in particular to a method for protein detection in water based on a smart phone. Background Art

[0002] There are many methods for determining protein content. Commonly used techniques include Kjeldahl nitrogen determination, colorimetry (such as biuret method, Lowry method, Bradford method) and ultraviolet absorption method. Each method has its advantages and limitations. The selection of the appropriate method depends on the specific needs of the experiment, the required sensitivity and the characteristics of the sample. Kjeldahl nitrogen determination is a classic method for determining protein content. The protein content is indirectly estimated by measuring the nitrogen content in the sample. This method has high accuracy and good reproducibility, but the operation is complicated and time-consuming.

[0003] The colorimetric method is based on the color change produced after the protein reacts with a specific reagent to determine its content, including the following main methods: The biuret method uses the peptide bonds in the protein to react with the biuret reagent to form a purple complex with a maximum absorption peak at 540 nm. This method is simple and fast, but has low sensitivity to low concentrations of protein. The Lowry method combines the biuret reaction with the redox reaction of the Folin phenol reagent, has high sensitivity, and is suitable for the detection of trace amounts of protein. However, this method is sensitive to many interfering substances (such as reducing agents and sugars). In the ultraviolet absorption method, proteins have a natural absorption peak at a wavelength of 280 nm, which is due to the absorption of aromatic amino acid residues (such as tryptophan and tyrosine). This method is fast and non-destructive, but requires a relatively pure sample and is easily interfered by other absorbing substances.

[0004] The Bradford method uses the color change of Coomassie Brilliant Blue G-250 dye after binding to protein to determine protein content. Coomassie Brilliant Blue dye changes from brown-red to blue after binding to protein, and the protein content is calculated by measuring its absorbance change at 595 nm. The specific steps are as follows: Prepare a standard curve: Use a standard protein of known concentration (such as bovine serum albumin, BSA) to prepare a series of standard solutions. Add dye: Add Coomassie Brilliant Blue dye to the standard solution and the sample solution to be tested, mix well and let it stand for a few minutes. Determine absorbance: Measure the absorbance of each standard solution and sample solution at 595 nm. Calculate protein concentration: Calculate the protein concentration of the sample to be tested based on the standard curve. This method is widely used in biochemical laboratories due to its simplicity, rapidity and high sensitivity.

[0005] Although there are many methods for detecting absorbance and the measurements are accurate, most sensors or precision instruments involved can only be used in laboratory environments with relatively harsh conditions, and there is a lack of rapid on-site detection methods. Summary of the invention

[0060] Example 2

[0061] A method for detecting protein in water based on a smartphone, comprising:

[0062] Step 1: Prepare bovine serum albumin standard solutions with concentrations of 128ug / L, 144ug / L, 160ug / L, 176ug / L, 192ug / L, 208ug / L, 224ug / L, and 240ug / L

[0063] Step 2: Take 2.5mL of 128ug / L bovine serum albumin standard solution, then add 500uL of Coomassie Brilliant Blue G250 solution (100mg / L), dilute to 5ml, and let stand at room temperature for 5 minutes to stabilize the color;

[0064] Step 3: Add 3 mL of the dyed protein solution to a 5 mL centrifuge tube, place it in the portable detection device of Example 1, use distilled water as a reference, turn on the laser pen of the device, and then take a picture. Figure 6 As shown, each group is repeated 3 times; in the portable detection device of Example 1, the wavelength of the laser emitted by the laser pen is 532nm;

[0065] Step 4: Cut out the effective area of ​​the photograph (the effective excitation area is the light column area formed by the laser beam passing through the solution in the cuvette, and ensure that the reference and experimental group areas are the same size), and obtain the R, G, and B values ​​of the corresponding areas of the sample solution and the reference solution respectively. Specifically: cut out the effective area picture, save it in the specified folder, and use Matlab software to write the following program:

[0066] I=imread('file location\image name.jpg','jpg');

[0067] RGB_mean=mean(mean(I));

[0068] R_mean=RGB_mean(:,:,1);

[0069] G_mean=RGB_mean(:,:,2);

[0070] B_mean=RGB_mean(:,:,3);

[0071] By running the above program, the average RGB value calculation of each valid area image is completed, that is, the process of converting optical signals into electrical signals and finally into digital signals is completed. The specific data is shown in Table 2;

[0072] Then calculate the A value according to formula (I), see Table 3;

[0073] (I);

[0074] Step 5: According to steps 2-4, take pictures of the mixed solutions of protein standard solution and dye solution with different concentrations (144ug / L, 160ug / L, 176ug / L, 192ug / L, 208ug / L, 224ug / L, 240ug / L) in sequence, intercept the corresponding R, G, B values ​​of each effective area, and calculate the A value in each picture; the results are shown in Table 2-3;

[0075] Table 2

[0076]

[0077] Table 3

[0078]

[0079] A standard working curve is established with protein concentration as the horizontal axis and A as the vertical axis, such as Figure 7 ;

[0080] Step 6: Collect the water sample to be tested, filter it through a 0.45μm pore size filter syringe, and then use hydrochloric acid or sodium hydroxide solution to adjust the pH of the solution to be tested to neutral, add 500ul of Coomassie Brilliant Blue G250 solution to 2.5mL of the solution to be tested, and let it stand for 5min; add 3mL of the post-reaction solution to the cuvette, put it into the sample tank of the device, and take 3mL of distilled water and add it to the reference tank; take a photo with a smartphone, substitute the photo into the computer program for analysis, extract the RGB value, and then calculate the corresponding A as 0.19, and combine the standard working curve to convert the protein concentration of the water sample to be tested to 152ug / L.

[0081] To verify the beneficial effects of the method of the present invention, the inventors also conducted the following experiments.

[0082] 1. Feasibility evaluation

[0083] 0.5 mL of Coomassie Brilliant Blue G250 solution was added to 2.5 mL of bovine serum albumin standard solutions with concentrations of 128 ug / L, 144 ug / L, 160 ug / L, 176 ug / L, 192 ug / L, 208 ug / L, 224 ug / L, and 240 ug / L, and the volume was adjusted to 5 ml, and the solution was allowed to stand at room temperature for 5 minutes to stabilize the color. The standard solutions were detected using a standard spectrophotometer and the equipment of Example 1 of the present invention, and a standard working curve was established according to the detection, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 The R² of the standard working curve established by the standard spectrophotometer is 0.9953, and the R² of the standard working curve established by the method of the present invention is 0.9854, which has high accuracy.

[0084] 3. Selection of effective area

[0085] Since the determination of protein is obtained indirectly by photographing the cuvette of the device in Example 1 with a smartphone, the selection of the effective area is crucial. Figure 8 As shown, the captured image captures the entire position of the cuvette and is then divided into two areas for evaluation: the light column area (the light column area formed by the laser beam shining through the solution in the cuvette) and the surrounding area (the area below the liquid surface in the cuvette excluding the light column area).

[0086] Add 0.5 mL of Coomassie Brilliant Blue G250 solution to 2.5 mL of bovine serum albumin standard solution with concentrations of 128 ug / L, 144 ug / L, 160 ug / L, 176 ug / L, 192 ug / L, 208 ug / L, 224 ug / L, and 240 ug / L, and adjust the volume to 5 ml. Let it stand at room temperature for 5 minutes to stabilize the color. Take 3 mL of the stained protein solution and take a photo with the device of Example 1, where the reference is 3 mL of distilled water. Calculate the relevant A values ​​of the two regions, establish the relationship curve between concentration and A value, and the working curve of the light column region is shown in Figure 7 , surrounding areas such as Fig. 9 The light column area is used as the effective area, and the obtained standard curve has a good linear relationship, but the related data of the surrounding area have no obvious linear relationship. In summary, it is reasonable to select the light column area as the effective area for subsequent determination.

[0087] 4. Selection of RGB channels

[0088] In Example 2, 3 mL of a mixed solution of a bovine serum albumin solution and a Coomassie Brilliant Blue G-250 solution with a concentration of 128, 144, 160, 176, 192, 208, 224, and 240 ug / L was poured into a cuvette in sequence and placed in the left sample pool of a portable detection device based on a smartphone; and 3 mL of distilled water was selected as a reference in the right sample pool. Each concentration was measured three times, three photos were taken, and the effective area was intercepted and the RGB average value was obtained, as shown in Table 2.

[0089] As can be seen from Table 2, since the R value of each photo has almost no change, the obtained RGB value is matched with the corresponding reference RGB value one by one to find and Then, the standard working curve of concentration and A value was established. The results are shown in Table 4. Figure 7 and Fig.10 .

[0090] Table 4

[0091]

[0092] Depend on Fig.10 It can be seen that there is a certain linear relationship between the G ratio of protein solutions of different concentrations, but there is no obvious linear relationship with the R and B ratios. Therefore, when the portable detection device based on smartphones is used to measure proteins, the G channel can be used as the detection channel and linearity can be established. In addition, the linear equation of the linear curve established by the G channel is: , R² = 0.9854. This means that establishing a linear curve of RhB through the G channel will be more sensitive and accurate.

[0093] 6. Accuracy evaluation

[0094] Water samples were collected from rivers in and around the school and from other places. A total of 6 water samples were collected and measured using a standard spectrophotometer and the equipment in Example 1, respectively. Each sample was measured three times. Figure 7 The final result is converted into a linear fitting curve. Figure 7 The method of converting the final turbidity using the linear fitting curve is recorded as the SPSD measurement result, as shown in Table 5.

[0095] Table 5

[0096]

[0097] As shown in Table 5, for the same water sample, the difference between the test results of the standard spectrophotometer and the SPSD test results of the present invention is not much. The results of the two tests on the same water sample are compared, as shown in Fig.11 As shown. Fig.11It can be seen that the ratio of the turbidity result of the water sample measured by the equipment in Example 1 to the result measured by the turbidity meter is controlled within 0.93-1.10, which is close to 1.000, indicating that the difference between the two measurement results is small, confirming that the result of measuring water turbidity with the assistance of a portable detection device assisted by a smartphone is reliable.

[0098] In summary, the present invention uses a portable detection device to perform simple photo processing, and the corresponding protein concentration can be obtained by calculating the A value; the device of the present invention is simple, can realize on-site detection of water samples, and has high detection accuracy.

[0099] The above is a preferred embodiment of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this technical field, making several improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of the present invention should also be regarded as within the protection scope of the present invention.
