Abstract
Background:
Detection of Vitamin C (Vc) is very important to protect human health. A lot of methods have been developed for the detection of Vc. However, many methods require complex material preparation and skilled operators. Thus, a simple, label-free biosensor is still urgently needed.
Methods:
In this work, N-methylmesoporphyrin IX (NMM)/G-quadruplex pair was used as a label-free signal reporter. Without Vc, the G-quadruplex DNA and its incomplete complementary chain could form duplex structure by T-Hg(II)-T mismatch. In this case, the G-quadruplex structure could not be formed. When Vc was added, the Hg2+ was reduced to Hg(0). Then, the G-quadruplex DNA became free and formed G-quadruplex structure to emit fluorescence signal.
Results:
Under optimal conditions, this biosensor showed a good linear response in the range of 0.2 - 4.0 μM and a low limit of detection (19.9 nM). This biosensor also had good selectivity towards Vc. Meanwhile, the satisfactory recovery rates (93.2%-102.8%) suggested that this biosensor had attractive potential for measuring Vc in real samples.
Conclusion:
In this work, a simple label-free fluorescent biosensor for the detection of Vc based on Hg2+-mediated DNA structural changes had been developed. The whole experiment was simple and all reagents were commercialized. The label-free detection was realized by NMM/G-quadruplex as a signal reporter. This biosensor was very sensitive with a low limit of detection. And it had a potential practical application for the Vc detection in milk powder.

Ratiometric fluorescence detection of sulfide ions based on lanthanide coordination polymer using guanosine diphosphate as ligand. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2021; 204:111796. [PMID: 33933879 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2021.111796] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2021] [Revised: 04/01/2021] [Accepted: 04/25/2021] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
The efficiency of energy transfer from guanine nucleotide to terbium ion (Tb3+) is affected by the phosphate group significantly. Compared with the biomolecules 5'-GMP (guanosine monophosphate), guanosine diphosphate (GDP) exhibits better sensitize ability to Tb3+ ions luminescence. Assisted with the carboxycoumarin ligand, we synthesized a more stable optical Coumarin@GDP-Tb polymer with the characteristic emission peaks located on 440 nm and 545 nm in this work. The Coumarin@GDP-Tb polymer is not only rich in metal binding sites, but also maintains a moderate ionic binding force, which helps metal ions to bind or leave it easily. Experiment result shows that Coumarin@GDP-Tb polymer has the appropriate binding force for Fe2+ ions, which can be destroyed by sulfur ions (S2-) as the formation of FeS precipitation. Based on this, Coumarin@GDP-Tb was designed as the ratio fluorescence probe for sulfur ions detection, where the fluorescence at 545 nm can be selectively quenched by Fe2+ ions, while that at 440 nm was unaffected, in the presence of S2- ions, the quenched fluorescence can be recovered remarkably. With the increasing S2- ions from 0.1-45 μM, the ratio of fluorescence intensity at 545 nm to 440 nm (F545/F440) is linear to S2- concentration, and the detection limit of S2- was calculated to be 0.073 μM. Contrast to those fluorescence probes with single wavelength emission, Coumarin@GDP-Tb displays a comparable sensitivity, the introduced self-adjust wavelength improved the detection accuracy efficiently. The above 98.1 % recovery rates of S2- ions in the actual water sample demonstrated the practicability of Coumarin@GDP-Tb fluorescence probe.
