Abstract
En 中文
In this report, a simple and label-free colorimetric assay was developed for detecting alkaline phosphatase (ALP). Based on the conjugated gold nanoparticle/adenosine triphosphate (AuNP/ATP) sensing system, this assay is highly sensitive and selective. In this system, ATP induces the aggregation of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)-capped AuNPs and ALP stimulates the disaggregation of AuNPs by converting ATP into adenosine through an enzymatic dephosphorylation reaction. Hence, the presence of ALP can be visually observed (gray-to-red color change) and monitored by the shift of the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) absorption band of AuNPs. Furthermore, the dynamic range of the method can be varied by addition of different metal ions (e.g. 100-600 unit/L to 5.0-100 unit/L and 0.2-20 unit/L in the presence of Ca2+ and Pb2+, respectively). The feasibility of this sensitive and specific assay with a tunable dynamic range was demonstrated to be consistent even in human serum samples. (c) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
