Abstract
Myeloperoxidase (MPO) has been demonstrated to be a biomarker of neutrophilic inflammation in various diseases. Rapid detection and quantitative analysis of MPO are of great significance for human health. Herein, an MPO protein flexible amperometric immunosensor based on a colloidal quantum dot (CQD)-modified electrode was demonstrated. The remarkable surface activity of CQDs allows them to bind directly and stably to the surface of proteins and to convert antigen-antibody specific binding reactions into significant currents. The flexible amperometric immunosensor provides quantitative analysis of MPO protein with an ultra-low limit of detection (LOD) (31.6 fg mL-1), as well as good reproducibility and stability. The detection method is expected to be applied in clinical examination, POCT (bedside test), community physical examination, home self-examination and other practical scenarios.
