Abstract

Chitosan (CS) and sodium alginates (SA) have been revealed for the design of layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly to develop pharmaceutical dosage forms owing to their versatile characteristics. Recently, the preference for unique LbL assemblies in biosensor development has offered the modified performance for detection interest analyte. Beta (β)-site amyloid precursor protein-cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE-1) is a pivotal biomarker of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and demands high sensitivity and selective identification for the early-stage diagnosis. In this work, CS-SA‑platinum nanoparticles (Pt-NPs) LbL-based nanobioconjugate decorated carbon backbone-layered affinity surface plasmon resonance (Anti-BACE-1-LbL@Pt-NPs-GO-SPR) biosensor was designed for extremely sensitive and selective sensing of BACE-1. Primarily, LbL nanobioconjugate was synthesized by integrating cationic ‘CS’ and anionic ‘SA’ on the face of green-made Pt-NPs. Here, the amines of ‘CS’ offers a softer surface for anti-BACE-1 immobilization that leads to maintaining the bio-functionality of bioreceptors, provides the specific orientation for bioreceptors, etc. As well, the synthesized graphene oxide (GO, 2D carbon backbone) was preferred as non-plasmonic nanomaterials due to their plenty of merits in biosensors. Here, the designed biosensor provides a low detection limit (LOD) of 5.63 fg/mL and a wide linear range from 5 fg/mL to 150 ng/mL. Moreover, selectivity and real-time analyses in spiked samples exhibited their practical usefulness in complex specimens for BACE-1 detection. Hence, the decorating of antibody-immobilized CS-SA coated Pt-NPs nanobioconjugate on the face of GO has various benefits mainly extremely sensitive and superb specificity. Overall, CS and SA coated Pt-NPs bioconjugate decorated GO layered SPR biosensors can provide highly sensitive, selectivity, rapid, label-free, etc. detection of BACE-1 in clinical samples.
