Abstract
A multi-channel prismatic localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) biosensor was developed for quantitative and real-time detection of multiple COVID-19 characteristic miRNAs. The well-dispersed and dense gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) arrays for LSPR biosensing were fabricated through a nano-thickness diblock copolymer template (BCPT). Both theoretical and experimental analyses were conducted to investigate the effects of particle size, interparticle spacing, and surface coverage on LSPR sensing spectrum and intensity sensitivity of varied AuNPs sizes. A competitive assay strategy was proposed and used for non-amplification miRNA detection with a low limit detection of 3.41 nM, while a four-channel prismatic LSPR system enables parallel detection of multiple miRNAs. Furthermore, this sensing strategy can effectively and specifically identify target miRNA, distinguish mismatched miRNA and interfering miRNA, and exhibit low non-specific adsorption. This BCPT-based LSPR biosensor demonstrates the practicality and potential of a multi-channel, adaptable, and integrated prismatic sensor in medical testing and diagnostic applications.
