[PMID: 37703422 DOI: 10.1002/jbio.202300329] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2023] [Revised: 09/11/2023] [Accepted: 09/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/15/2023]
Abstract
A single-mode-fiber (SMF)-multimode-fiber (MMF)-tri-core-fiber (TCF) Michelson probe structure is proposed for trace detection of canine distemper virus (CDV). One end of the TCF is cut flat and fused with the multimode fiber, and the other end is coated with a silver film to enhance the reflection, and an optic-fiber sensing probe with SMF-MMF-TCF structure is obtained. The (PDDA/PSS)3 multilayer film is modified on the surface of the fiber by layer-by-layer self-assembly method as a polyelectrolyte binder to immobilize CDV antibodies to form a (PDDA/PSS)3 /CDV antibody composite membrane for specific detection of CDV antigens. The response-recovery test of the sensor is performed to verify its repeatability. The detection limit, the sensitivity, and the linear fitting degree for CDV antigen are 0.1236 pg/mL, 1.1776 dB/(pg/mL), and 0.9899, respectively. At the same time, the stability, selectivity, and clinical samples of the sensors were also verified.

BIOMEDICAL OPTICS EXPRESS 2023; 14:1364-1377. [PMID: 37078032 PMCID: PMC10110323 DOI: 10.1364/boe.486717] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2023] [Revised: 02/22/2023] [Accepted: 02/22/2023] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
A label-free microfluidic immunosensor based on the double helix microfiber coupler (DHMC) coated with graphene oxide (GO) was proposed for the specific detection of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH). Two single-mode optical fibers were twisted in a parallel direction, the coning machine was used to fuse and taper them, and the high-sensitivity DHMC was obtained. To make a stable sensing environment, it was immobilized in a microfluidic chip. And then, the DHMC was modified by GO and bio-functionalized by the AMH monoclonal antibodies (anti-AMH MAbs) for the specific detection of AMH. The experimental results showed that the detection range of the immunosensor for AMH antigen solutions was 200 fg/mL∼50 µg/mL, the detection of limit (LOD) was ∼235.15 fg/mL, and the detection sensitivity and the dissociation coefficient were ∼3.518 nm/(log(mg/mL)) and ∼1.85 × 10 - 12 M, respectively. The alpha fetoprotein (AFP), des-carboxy prothrombin (DCP), growth stimulation expressed gene 2 (ST2) and AMH serum were used to confirm the excellent specific and clinical properties of the immunosensor, showing that the proposed immunosensor was easy-made and can be potentially applied in the biosensing field.

Rapid and sensitive detection of Staphylococcus aureus by using a long-period fiber grating immunosensor coated with egg yolk antibody. Biosens Bioelectron 2021; 199:113860. [PMID: 34890885 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2021.113860] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2021] [Revised: 11/24/2021] [Accepted: 11/30/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
The rapid and reliable detection of bacteria plays an important role in clinical and veterinary practice. A stable, label free, compact, and sensitive long-period fiber grating (LPFG) sensor based on egg yolk antibody (IgY) was proposed for the detection of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). LPFG was fabricated with laser writing technology, and specific IgY was further immobilized on the grating region and then combined with the corresponding bacteria. S. aureus was detected by tracking the change of resonance wavelength in the LPFG transmission spectrum caused by bacteria-antibody interaction induced by the increase of biological cover thickness and density after the immune reaction. The testing results showed that the proposed sensor was selective and sensitive to S. aureus measurement, and the detection limit is approximately 33 CFU/ml. The proposed antibody immobilization method is very simple, and the optical fiber can be manufactured in batch to reduce the cost. The detection time of the sensor is around 20 min, which is fast and suitable for detection. The assay was successfully applied for the quantitative analysis of S. aureus in natural waters and met the needs of on-site screening trace pathogenic bacteria in food safety control.

Abstract
The evolution of optical fiber technology has revolutionized a variety of fields, from optical transmission to environmental monitoring and biomedicine, given their unique properties and versatility. For biosensing purposes, the light guided in the fiber core is exposed to the surrounding media where the analytes of interest are detected by different techniques, according to the optical fiber configuration and biofunctionalization strategy employed. These configurations differ in manufacturing complexity, cost and overall performance. The biofunctionalization strategies can be carried out directly on bare fibers or on coated fibers. The former relies on interactions between the evanescent wave (EW) of the fiber and the analyte of interest, whereas the latter can comprise plasmonic methods such as surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and localized SPR (LSPR), both originating from the interaction between light and metal surface electrons. This review presents the basics of optical fiber immunosensors for a broad audience as well as the more recent research trends on the topic. Several optical fiber configurations used for biosensing applications are highlighted, namely uncladded, U-shape, D-shape, tapered, end-face reflected, fiber gratings and special optical fibers, alongside practical application examples. Furthermore, EW, SPR, LSPR and biofunctionalization strategies, as well as the most recent advances and applications of immunosensors, are also covered. Finally, the main challenges and an outlook over the future direction of the field is presented.
