AI Technical Summary
In existing fluorescence immunoassay techniques, traditional fluorescent dyes have poor photobleaching ability, narrow excitation spectrum, and sensitivity to temperature or pH, which limits the detection effect. Furthermore, research on quantum dot-labeled antibody fluorescent immunoprobes has not been widely reported, making it difficult to achieve detection with high selectivity and high sensitivity.
CdSe/ZnS quantum dots were activated with coupling agents 1-ethyl-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide and N-hydroxysuccinimide, and then bound to antibodies via a coupling reaction to prepare CdSe/ZnS quantum dot fluorescent immunoprobes. The reaction conditions, including temperature, time, and centrifugation parameters, were optimized.
Quantum dots improve the selectivity and sensitivity of fluorescent immunoassay probes, possessing strong photostability and good biocompatibility. Their flexible surface modification enables highly efficient fluorescence detection.

Abstract

TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of fluorescent immunological probe preparation, and particularly relates to a fluorescent immunological probe preparation method of quantum dot labeled antibodies. BACKGROUND
[0002] The fluorescent immunological analysis technology is an analysis technology based on the specific and reversible binding reaction of antigens and antibodies, and has the advantages of high sensitivity, simple operation and low cost, and is widely used.
