Abstract
In this work, a novel nano-sensing system with luminescent Faraday cage mode has been developed to detect miRNA-221-5p in clinic saliva exosomes to evaluate asthma. Firstly, copper nanoclusters (Cu NCs) were synthesized in situ on the defects in Ti3CN nanosheets based on the nanoconfinement effect. Due to the Electronic metal-support interactions (EMSI) between MXene and the anchored Cu NCs, Cu NCs@MXene displayed the strong luminescence performance, high electrochemical activity and good stability properties. Furthermore, MXene nanosheets with good conductivity and flexibility was used to expand the outer Helmholtz plane and improve the sensing ability. Meanwhile, Cu nanocone/Bi nanoparticles (NPs) arrays were constructed by step-by-step electrodeposition. Due to the surface plasmon coupling effect, the Cu nanocone/Bi NPs arrays can convert the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) signal of Cu NCs@MXene-Faraday cage into the directional emission with 13.4-fold enhancement. Finally, a thin phospholipid film and capture DNA were modified on the surface of the Cu nanocone/Bi NPs array as the sensing interface to detect miRNA-221-5p in saliva exosomes. The designed nano-sensing system had a detection range was 1.0 × 10-16 ∼ 1.0 × 10-8 mol/L with the detection limit of 34 aM. Finally, the biosensor has been successfully employed to evaluate asthma in the clinical analysis.
