Abstract
Early monitoring of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is crucial for its treatment and prognosis. Hence, highly specific and sensitive detection method is urgently needed. In this study, we propose a novel herringbone microfluid chip with aptamer functionalized core-shell photonic crystal (PhC) barcode integration for high throughput multiplex CVD detection. Based on the PhC derived from co-assembled carboxylated single-wall carbon nanotubes and silicon dioxide nanoparticles, we obtain core-shell PhC barcodes by hydrogel replicating and partially etching. These core-shell PhC barcodes not only retain the original structural colors coding element, but also fully expose a large number of carboxyl elements in the ore for the probe immobilization. We further combine the functionalized barcodes with herringbone groove microfluidic chip to elucidate its acceptability in testing clinical sample. It is demonstrated that the special design of microfluidic chip can significantly enhance fluid vortex resistance and contact frequency, improving the sample capture efficiency and detection sensitivity. These features indicate that our core-shell PhC barcodes-integrated herringbone microfluidic system possesses great potential for multiplex biomarker detection in clinical application.
