Potential-Resolved Electrochemiluminescence for Simultaneous Determination of Triple Latent Tuberculosis Infection Markers

Potential-Resolved Electrochemiluminescence for Simultaneous Determination of Triple Latent Tuberculosis Infection Markers
Peihui Yang, Yan Hao, Bin Zhou, Mingyao Zhu
A novel electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor based on the potential-resolved strategy was first developed for simultaneous determination of triple latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) markers with high sensitivity, interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and interleukin (IL)-2. In this work, luminol and self-prepared carbon quantum dots and CdS quantum dots were integrated onto gold nanoparticles and magnetic beads in sequence to fabricate potential-resolved ECL nanoprobes with signal amplification. IFN-γ-antibody (Ab)1, TNF-α-Ab1, and IL-2-Ab1 were separately immobilized on three spatially resolved areas of a patterned indium tin oxide electrode to capture the corresponding LTBI markers, which were further recognized by IFN-γ-Ab2, TNF-α-Ab2, and IL-2-Ab2-functionalized ECL nanoprobes. The binding reaction of antibody-functionalized ECL nanoprobes and the captured LTBI markers will generate three sensitive and potential-resolved ECL signals during one potential scanning, and the ECL intensities reflect the concentrations of IFN-γ, TNF-α, and IL-2 in the range of 1.6–200 pg mL–1. Therefore, the multiplexed ECL immunosensor provided an effective approach for simultaneous detection of triple LTBI markers in human serum, so it will be beneficial to facilitate more accurate and reliable clinical diagnosis for LTBI.
