▎ 摘 要
A voltammetric sandwich immunoassay is described for the biomarker cardiac troponin I (cTnI). The gold nanocube-functionalized graphene oxide (AuNC/GO) is employed as a substrate to accelerate the electron transfer and to immobilize more primary antibodies. It also employs composite materials prepared from bimetallic gold/silver core-shell nanocubes and nitrogen and sulfur co-doped reduced graphene oxide as the signal amplifier. The introduction of N and S into GO enlarges the active surface and accelerates the electron transfer rate. Such unique characteristics render the material an effective support substrate to load more Au@AgNC and to immobilize an increasing number of second antibodies via Ag-N bonds. After specific binding with cTnI, the immunosensor was incubated in a labeled cTnI secondary antibody solution. The amperometric signal change is then measured at 0.34V (vs. SCE) using o-phenylenediamine and hydrogen peroxide as an electrochemical probe. Response is linear in theconcentration range from 100fg.mL(-1) to 250ng.mL(-1), and the detection limit is 33fg.mL(-1).
