A temperature-independent model of dual calibration standards for onsite and point-of-care quantification analyses via electrophoresis titration chip. Anal Chim Acta 2024; 1289:342207. [PMID: 38245206 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2024.342207] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2023] [Revised: 12/28/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 01/22/2024]
Abstract
Electrophoresis titration chip (ETC) is a versatile tool for onsite and point-of-care quantification analyses because it affords naked-eye detection and a straightforward quantification format. However, it is vulnerable to changes in environmental temperature, which regulates the electrophoretic migration by affecting the ion mobility and the target recognition by influencing the enzyme activity. Therefore, the quantification accuracy of the ETC tests was severely compromised. Rather than using the dry bath or heating/cooling units, we proposed a facile model of dual calibration standards (DCS) to mathematically eliminate the effects of temperature on quantification accuracy. To verify our model, we deployed the ETC device at different temperatures ranging from 5 to 40 °C. We further utilized the DCS-ETC to determine the protein content and uric acid concentration in real samples outside the laboratory. All the experimental results showed that our model significantly stabilized the quantification recovery from 35.31-153.44 % to 99.38-103.44 % for protein titration; the recovery of uric acid titration is also stable at 96.25-106.42 %, suggesting the enhanced robustness of the ETC tests. Therefore, DCS-ETC is a field-deployable test that can offer reliable quantification performance without extra equipment for temperature control. We envision that it is promising to be used for onsite applications, including food safety control and disease diagnostics.

Abstract
Biological thiols spontaneously form a stable Au-S dative bond with gold nanoparticles (AuNP) that might be used for their selective extraction and enrichment in biological samples. In this work, interactions of selected biological thiols (glutathione, cysteine, homocysteine [Hcys], cysteamine [CA], and N-acetylcysteine) with AuNP stabilized by different capping agents (citrate, Tween 20, Brij 35, CTAB, SDS) were investigated by UV-Vis spectroscopy and capillary electrophoresis with laser-induced fluorescence. Spectrophotometric measurements showed aggregation of Hcys and CA with AuNP. In contrast, it was confirmed by CE-LIF that biological thiols were adsorbed to all types of AuNP. Citrate-capped AuNP were selected for AuNP-based extraction of biological thiols from exhaled breath condensate (EBC). Dithiothreitol was utilized for desorption of biological thiols from the AuNP surface, which was followed by derivatization with eosin-5-maleimide and CE-LIF analysis. AuNP-based extraction increased the sensitivity of CE-LIF analysis; however, further optimization of methodology is necessary for accurate quantification of biological thiols in EBC.

Abstract
Biomarkers are biological molecules associated with physiological changes of the body and aids in the detecting the onset of disease in patients. There is an urgent need for self-monitoring and early detection of cardiovascular and other health complications. Several blood-based biomarkers have been well established in diagnosis and monitoring the onset of diseases. However, the detection level of biomarkers in bed-side analysis is difficult and complications arise due to the endothelial dysfunction. Currently single volatile organic compounds (VOCs) based sensors are available for the detection of human diseases and no dedicated nanosensor is available for the elderly. Moreover, accuracy of the sensors based on a single analyte is limited. Hence, breath analysis has received enormous attention in healthcare due to its relatively inexpensive, rapid, and noninvasive methods for detecting diseases. This review gives a detailed analysis of how biomarker imprinted nanosensor can be used as a noninvasive method for detecting VOC to health issues early using exhaled breath analysis.
