Abstract
A “signal-on” electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor has been proposed for detecting carbohydrate antigen 153 (CA153) based on the dual MOFs sandwich strategy. The conductive and porous substrate consisting of 1T-MoS2 and two-dimensional conductive metal-organic framework (MOF, Ni-HAB) was anchored onto the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) to label the capture antibody (Ab1), and the luminescence-functionalized MOF (Ru(bpy)32+@UiO-66-NH2) was utilized to immobilize the detection second antibody (Ab2) to construct a “signal-on” responsive sandwich-type electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. Meanwhile, tripropylamine (TPA) acts as the co-reactant and provides a luminescence system for Ru(bpy)32+@UiO-66-NH2. The luminescence-functionalized MOFs showed excellent ECL activity owing to the tunable structure of MOFs. The remarkable enhancement in ECL intensity was obtained by the immunoreaction of antigen and antibody. Under the optimized conditions, the biosensor exhibited a detection limit of 0.0001 U mL−1 (S/N = 3) with a wide range from 0.001 to 50 U mL−1. The proposed ECL immunosensor was applicable for detecting human serum samples with a recovery of 99.83 ∼ 101 % (RSD < 5 %). This work demonstrates that the advantage of multifunctional MOFs could be applied to construct highly selective ECL immunosensor, and it may facilitate the diagnosis of breast cancer in clinics.
