Description
Electrochemical immunosensor and preparation method and application thereof
[0001] Related applications
[0002] The present application claims priority to the Chinese patent application No. 202510061886.9, filed on January 15, 2025, entitled "Electrochemical immunosensor and preparation method and application thereof", the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD
[0003] The present application belongs to the field of electrochemical immunosensor and protein detection, and particularly relates to an electrochemical immunosensor and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0004] At present, in the medical field, common tumor markers include carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), alpha-fetal protein (AFP), carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) and carbohydrate antigen 199 (CA199), etc. Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a non-specific tumor marker, and its normal level in human blood is 0 μg / L-5 μg / L. When it is higher than 20 μg / L, it may reflect the possibility of cancer in the body, such as colon cancer, pancreatic cancer, breast cancer and gastric cancer, etc. Therefore, the detection of cancer markers can be used as an important means for early cancer screening, and can also be used for monitoring the recurrence and metastasis of tumors.
[0005] At present, the main means for screening CEA is immunological method, which recognizes trace amounts of antigens in complex body fluids through high-specificity antigen-antibody affinity reaction, and then detects high enough signal through different signal amplification means. These methods include enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, chemiluminescence, etc. However, these methods depend on precise large instruments, have complex detection processes and high cost, which limits their application.
[0006] In addition, in the early stage of cancer development, the change range of CEA level in the body is not large, so a high-specificity and high-sensitivity means is needed to detect such subtle changes.

[0068] The term "CEA (carcinoembryonic antigen)" refers to carcinoembryonic antigen, which was first isolated from embryos and tumor tissues and is a broad-spectrum tumor marker.
[0069] The term "AuNP (Au nanoparticles)" refers to gold nanoparticles, a type of noble metal nanomaterial with a particle size of approximately 10-100 nm. These nanomaterials possess excellent electrical conductivity and high specific surface area, among other nanomaterial properties.
[0070] The term "CNTs (carbon nanotubes)" refers to carbon nanotubes, a type of carbon-based nanomaterial with varying diameters (10 nm to 200 nm) and lengths (1 μm to 10 μm), exhibiting excellent electrical conductivity and high specific surface area.
[0071] Electrochemical biosensors refer to sensors that immobilize biological recognition components (such as antigens, antibodies, enzymes, and nucleic acids) on their surface. These components recognize target substances, triggering a series of electrochemical reactions that alter the electrical signal. The sensitivity and efficiency of this system can be further improved by adding electroactive substances, redox probes, and nanomaterials.
[0072] Nanomaterials and enzyme-catalyzed substrate amplification strategies in electrochemical sensing. Enzyme-catalyzed substrate methods amplify antigen-antibody recognition into more detectable changes in electrical signals generated by electroactive products. Nanomaterials can increase antibody immobilization by increasing the sensor's specific surface area, and can also enrich nanomaterials with more enzymes for further amplification of the detection signal.
[0073] Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is a method that utilizes antigen-antibody interactions to detect target molecules. Antigens or antibodies are coated onto polystyrene plates, binding the target molecule. The antibody is then directly or indirectly coupled with an enzyme, proportionally converting the amount of the target molecule into the amount of enzyme and the amount of substrate catalyzed by the enzyme. A color reaction is then generated, and the target component is quantitatively analyzed by colorimetry.
[0074] Chemiluminescent immunoassay is a method for the quantitative detection of target proteins based on antigen-antibody binding. When the target protein forms an antigen-antibody complex with an antibody labeled with a tracer enzyme, the tracer enzyme catalyzes a chemical reaction in the luminescent substrate to produce light. The concentration of the target component can then be determined by detecting the amount of light emitted using an optical instrument.
[0075] This application provides an electrochemical immunosensor, including an electrode substrate, and carbon nanotubes, gold nanoparticles and capture antibodies sequentially immobilized on the surface of the electrode substrate.
[0076] In this method, gold nanoparticles are immobilized on carbon nanotubes using a chemical deposition method.
[0077] Gold nanoparticles are modified with carboxyl groups at the top end via Au-S bonds, and the carboxyl groups are coupled to the capture antibody via peptide bonds.
[0078] This application, by fixing carbon nanotubes on the electrode surface, can not only increase the effective working area of the electrode, but also further improve the conductivity of the electrode, effectively enhancing the electron conduction efficiency between the electroactive material and the electrode through electrochemical reaction.
[0079] Next, gold nanoparticles were grown on the surface of carbon nanotubes via electrochemical deposition. This in-situ growth method can increase the bonding between gold nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes. Gold has a very high electron transport efficiency, and the modification with gold nanoparticles can further improve electrode performance. In addition, gold nanoparticles have a large specific surface area, which further increases the antibody binding sites on the electrode and effectively improves the antibody immobilization amount. Finally, the modification with gold nanoparticles allows for further modification of the electrode surface through Au-S bonds.
[0080] In a specific example, the capture antibody includes one or more of CEA antibody, AFP antibody, CA125 antibody, and CA199 antibody;
[0081] Optionally, the electrode substrate includes, but is not limited to, one or more of screen-printed electrodes, glassy carbon electrodes, and magnetron sputtering electrodes.
[0082] This application uses screen-printed electrodes as a substrate, upon which further electrode modifications are made to fabricate an electrochemical immunosensor. Screen-printed electrodes are low-cost, and the resulting sensors are disposable, reducing issues such as electrode contamination and surface passivation associated with repeated use. Precise customization and batch production offer excellent repeatability and stability, effectively reducing batch-to-batch variability.

[0094] In one embodiment, the preparation of the third carbon electrode includes: mixing the second carbon electrode with a mixture containing a thiol compound and a carboxyl compound, reacting the mixture, and then drying it.

[0112] This application also provides an antigen detection method that uses the aforementioned electrochemical immunosensor for detection.
[0113] In a specific example, this includes: providing a detection antibody; the detection antibody being a conjugate of HRP-labeled gold nanoparticles and the antibody.
[0114] The antigen to be tested is dropped onto the surface of the electrochemical immunosensor for the first incubation treatment.
[0115] After adding the detection antibody, a second incubation is performed, followed by the addition of a colorimetric solution to initiate the reaction. The electrochemical impedance is then measured to obtain the electrochemical impedance value.
[0116] After the immunosensor binds to the antigen, HRP-labeled detection antibodies are added for characterization. When the detection antibody binds to the electrode via an antigen-antibody reaction, it increases the HRP content on the electrode surface. After the substrate is added, HRP catalyzes the substrate to generate an electroactive product, which undergoes a redox reaction at a specific voltage, resulting in a change in current.
[0117] In antibody labeling detection, gold nanoparticles are used as carriers to load as much HRP enzyme as possible before labeling the antibody. Compared to directly labeling HRP on the antibody, loading a large amount of HRP onto nanoparticles effectively increases the HRP loading per unit concentration of antibody, thereby increasing the amount of product and ultimately leading to a larger current change, thus effectively improving the sensor's sensitivity.
[0118] In a specific example, the conditions for the first incubation treatment include a temperature of 36℃ to 38℃ and a time of 10 min to 20 min. For example, the temperature is 36℃, 37℃, or 38℃, and the time is 10 min, 11 min, 12 min, 13 min, 14 min, 15 min, 16 min, 17 min, 18 min, 19 min, or 20 min.

[0122] This application provides an electrochemical immunosensor. By modifying the electrode surface with carbon nanotubes in situ using gold nanoparticles, the electron transport efficiency of the electrode is effectively improved, and the effective working area of the sensor surface is increased, providing a larger area for subsequent antibody immobilization. Furthermore, a modified film is formed on the gold nanoparticle surface through Au-S bonds, enriching the electrode surface with carboxyl groups. This effectively increases the number of carboxyl groups per unit area, enabling the orderly arrangement of antibodies and maximizing antibody immobilization efficiency. When using the electrochemical immunosensor of this application for detection, the detection signal is effectively improved, the signal-to-noise ratio is increased, and the detection limit is reduced.
[0123] Furthermore, when this application is used for testing, the sample does not require processing, the detection process is shorter and the time is shorter, which can make the detection more efficient and improve the sensitivity. In the future, it can be automated by designing microfluidic chips, which can further reduce manual operation, achieve high-throughput testing, and facilitate the development of POCT.

A CNT dispersion was drop-coated onto the clean surface of the working electrode and dried under an infrared lamp. After gently rinsing with PBS solution, the electrode surface was dried with nitrogen gas to obtain a CNT-modified carbon electrode (C-CNT electrode).

After the electrode was semi-dry, 25 μL of 85 μg / mL CEA antibody was added to the working electrode surface. The electrode was then placed in a humidified chamber at 37°C for 2 h to allow the amino groups on the antibody to condense with the activated carboxyl groups on the self-assembled membrane, thus coupling the antibody. The electrode was then washed with PBST to remove unstable CEA antibody, yielding the C-CNTs / AuNP-Ab electrode.
[0139] 6. Electrode sealing

[0153] 4. Modification of carboxyl groups (third electrode)
[0154] The screen-printed electrode was treated with a 150 mM aqueous solution of 6-(mercaptomethyl)-dodecanoic acid and reacted overnight at room temperature. This allowed the electrode to spontaneously form a carboxyl-rich self-assembled film on the surface of gold nanoparticles via Au-S bonds. The electrode was then gently washed with PBS solution and dried with nitrogen gas.
[0155] 5. Activation of the carboxyl group
[0156] Equal volumes of a 2 mM 2-(N-morpholino)ethanesulfonic acid solution, a 5 mg / mL N-hydroxysuccinimide solution, and a 20 mg / mL 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide solution were mixed. 5 μL of this mixture was then added dropwise to a C-CNTs / AuNP electrode and activated at room temperature for 0.2 h.

[0171] 4. Modification of carboxyl groups (third electrode)
[0172] The screen-printed electrode was treated with a 200 mM aqueous solution of 3-(2-mercaptoethyl) and reacted overnight at room temperature. This allowed the electrode to spontaneously form a carboxyl-rich self-assembled film on the surface of gold nanoparticles via Au-S bonds. The electrode was then gently washed with PBS solution and dried with nitrogen gas.
[0173] 5. Activation of the carboxyl group
[0174] Equal volumes of a mixture of 40 mM 2-(N-morpholino)ethanesulfonic acid solution, 30 mg / mL N-hydroxysuccinimide solution, and 30 mg / mL 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide solution were mixed. 50 μL of this mixture was then added dropwise to a C-CNTs / AuNP electrode and activated at room temperature for 1 h.

[0177] 7. Preparation of gold nanoparticles
[0178] Gold nanoparticles were prepared using a reduction method. A 0.5 wt% chloroauric acid solution was heated to 100°C, and an appropriate amount of tannic acid solution was added during stirring to bring the final concentration in the mixed solution to 5 wt%. The reaction continued to produce a red solution, which was then heated to 100°C and boiled for 30 min. After cooling to room temperature, deionized water was added to prepare a 1% gold nanoparticle solution.
[0179] 8. Gold nanoparticle-labeled antibodies and HRP enzyme
[0180] The pH of 5 mL of gold nanoparticle solution was adjusted to 6 using K2CO3. Then, 0.5 mg of CEA monoclonal antibody and 2 mg of HRP enzyme were added, thoroughly mixed, and incubated at room temperature for 6 h. Afterward, 20% wt BSA solution was added to block the gold nanoparticle surface. The solution was centrifuged at 15000 rpm for 30 min and washed three times to obtain HRP-rich gold nanoparticle-labeled CEA antibody (AuNP / HRP-Ab).
[0181] CEA antigen test results:
[0182] CEA antigen at gradient concentrations was prepared using antibody dilution buffer and added to the prepared C-CNTs / AuNP-Ab electrode surface. After incubation at 37°C for 15 min, the electrode was washed with PBST, and AuNP / HRP-Ab solution was added and incubated at 37°C for 15 min. After washing with PBST, TMB solution was added and the reaction was allowed to proceed for 300 s. The current was then measured at 0.1 V using chronoamperometry.
[0183] Impedance tests were performed on the electrodes at the different modification stages described above. A solution containing 5 mM potassium ferricyanide and 5 mM potassium chloride was used as the electrolyte solution. Impedance spectroscopy was performed at an open-circuit voltage with amplitude modulation of 0.01 V. The test results are shown in Figure 2.
[0184] The results showed that the electrode impedance decreased significantly after modification with CNTs and AuNPs, because both have good conductivity and increase the electrode surface area, which is beneficial to the electrochemical reaction between potassium ferricyanide and the electrode surface. After the electrode was modified and activated by the linker, the impedance increased significantly after antibody coupling. This was because the increase of non-conductive biological components on the electrode surface hindered electron transport between potassium ferricyanide and the electrode, indicating that this application can effectively immobilize a large number of antibody proteins.
[0185] Furthermore, the nanomaterial modification on the electrode increased the antibody binding region, and the polycarboxyl compounds modified on the nanomaterials resulted in a higher number of carboxyl groups per unit area on the electrode, further promoting antibody binding. After blocking, the impedance value increased further, and the surface electrode surface was covered with more non-conductive components, indicating that many non-specific sites on the electrode were blocked.
[0186] Detection limit test:
[0187] The electrochemical immunosensor designed in this application was used to detect gradient concentrations of CEA antigen (0, 0.1 ng / mL, 1.0 ng / mL, 10 ng / mL, 20 ng / mL). The time-current curves are shown in Figure 3. The current value at 60 s was statistically analyzed, and the current signal was plotted as a function of the antigen concentration.
[0188] As shown in Figure 3, the current value increases with the increase of CEA antigen concentration. This is because the number of antigens bound to the capture antibody increases, resulting in more detection antibodies binding to the electrode surface. The detection antibody is connected to HRP-rich gold nanoparticles, which, upon the addition of the substrate, allow more HRP to exert a catalytic effect, generating electroactive products and producing a higher current signal under the same voltage.
[0189] As shown in Figure 4, the electrochemical immunosensor exhibits a linear range of 0.1 ng / mL to 20 ng / mL when measuring CEA antigen, with an R² of 0.997 and a detection limit of 0.04 ng / mL.
