Abstract
Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) phenomena have been widely studied to detect biomolecules because of their high sensitivity and ability to determine biomolecular interactions with kinetic information. However, highly selective detection in specific concentration ranges relevant to target biomolecules is still a challenging task. Recently, we developed bioresponsive nanoscale hydrogels to selectively intensify SPR signals through multivalent protein binding (MPB) events with target biomolecules, including IL-2, where we were able to demonstrate exceptional selectivity for target biomolecules with minimal responses to nonspecific and monovalent binding events. In this work, we systematically explored the relationship between the physical properties of MPB-capable nanoscale hydrogels and their SPR response induced in the presence of the programmed cell death protein 1 antibody (PD-1Ab) as a model target biomolecule. First, we developed a synthetic protocol by controlling various reaction parameters to construct a library of nanoscale poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) hydrogels (NHs) with different sizes (from 400 nm to 1 μm) and degrees of crosslinking (from 2 to 8%). Then, by incorporating MPB-capable PD-1 receptors onto the surface of NHs to form PD-1-responsive nanoscale hydrogels (PNHs), the hydrogel size and crosslinking dependency of their SPR responses were investigated. Our results reveal the appropriate hydrogel size regime and degree of crosslinking for effective PD-1Ab detection at specific concentrations range between a few nM and 1 μM. Overall, our study demonstrates that by tuning the physical properties of the nanoscale hydrogel matrix, the sensitivity and detection range of MPB-based SPR sensors can be modulated to potentially benefit clinical applications such as monitoring diverse therapeutic biomolecules.

Characterization of a Functional Hydrogel Layer on a Silicon-Based Grating Waveguide for a Biochemical Sensor. SENSORS 2016; 16:s16060914. [PMID: 27322286 PMCID: PMC4934340 DOI: 10.3390/s16060914] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2016] [Revised: 06/07/2016] [Accepted: 06/15/2016] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
We numerically demonstrated the characteristics of a functional hydrogel layer on a silicon-based grating waveguide for a simple, cost-effective refractive index (RI) biochemical sensor. The RI of the functional hydrogel layer changes when a specific biochemical interaction occurs between the hydrogel-linked receptors and injected ligand molecules. The transmission spectral profile of the grating waveguide shifts depends on the amount of RI change caused by the functional layer. Our characterization includes the effective RI change caused by the thickness, functional volume ratio, and functional strength of the hydrogel layer. The results confirm the feasibility of, and set design rules for, hydrogel-assisted silicon-based grating waveguides.

Abstract
The swelling and deswelling of a pH-responsive electrosterically stabilized poly[2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate] microgel adsorbed to silica surfaces have been quantified using the techniques of optical reflectometry (OR) and quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). It is shown that by utilizing and comparing OR measurements performed on wafers with differing oxide layer thicknesses the adsorbed amount and film thickness of the adsorbed microgel in both the swollen and deswollen forms can be determined. Also, the kinetics of the transition can be followed, revealing that collapse is a slower process than swelling, and direct support is provided for the formation of a dense outer layer or skin during collapse that slows the deswelling process. It is shown that the adsorption of this low glass transition temperature film-forming microgel latex is robust to changes in pH after an initial swelling event which is responsible for desorption of a large and variable fraction of the initially adsorbed polymer. Subsequent deswelling and swelling of the adsorbed film indicates that adsorption to a surface greatly hinders the volumetric swelling capacity of the microgel film. In its swollen state the film is only 3-4 times thicker than the collapsed film, whereas for particles in bulk the volume increases by a factor of 20 upon protonation of the tertiary amine residues. QCM results show that even in the collapsed form the film contains a considerable amount of water. Further, the viscoelasticity of the deswollen film is similar to that of the swollen film, suggesting that the degree of cross-linking is the primary determinant of viscoelasticity.

Abstract
The incorporation of a chemo-responsive hydrogel into a 1D photonic porous silicon (PSi) transducer is demonstrated. A versatile hydrogel backbone is designed via the synthesis of an amine-functionalized polyacrylamide copolymer where further amine-specific biochemical reactions can enable control of cross-links between copolymer chains based on complementary target-probe systems. As an initial demonstration, the incorporation of disulfide chemistry to control cross-linking of this hydrogel system within a PSi Bragg mirror sensor is reported. Direct optical monitoring of a characteristic peak in the white light reflectivity spectrum of the incorporated PSi Bragg mirror facilitates real-time detection of the hydrogel dissolution in response to the target analyte (reducing agent) over a timescale of minutes. The hybrid sensor response characteristics are shown to systematically depend on hydrogel cross-linking density and applied target analyte concentration. Additionally, effects due to responsive hydrogel confinement in a porous template are shown to depend on pore size and architecture of the PSi transducer substrate. Sufficient copolymer and water is removed from the PSi transducer upon dissolution and drying of the hydrogel to induce color changes that can be detected by the unaided eye. This highlights the potential for future development for point-of-care diagnostic biosensing.
