Abstract
Neuron-specific enolase (NSE) has gained extensive attention as a reliable target for detecting small cell carcinoma of lungs. In this paper, an electrochemical immunoassay method based on molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is proposed to detect NSE sensitively. By an in-situ growth method, MoS2 and Au nanoclusters (Au NCs) were composited to form a MoS2@Au nanozyme, and then the secondary antibodies were modified. Primary antibodies were immobilized on amino-reduced graphene oxides to capture NSE. The flower-like MoS2 nanozyme provided abundant sites to load Au NCs and catalyze the decomposition of H2O2, which were beneficial to amplify an amperometric response as well as build up sensitivity. Under optimum conditions, the detection range of this strategy was 0.1 pg·mL−1–10 ng·mL−1 and the limit of detection was 0.05 pg·mL−1. This sensing strategy achieved the prospect of sensitively detecting NSE. Moreover, the prepared electrochemical immunosensor provides a theoretical basis and technical support for the detection of other disease markers.
