Gold-nanourchin complexed silicon dioxide-probe on gap-fingered interdigitated electrode surface for Parkinson's Disease determination by current-volt measurement

초록

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a nervous disorder, affects physical movement, and leads to difficulty in balancing, walking, and coordination. A novel sensor is mandatory to determine PD and monitor the progress of the treatment. Neurofilament light chain (NfL) has been recognized as a good biomarker for PD and also helps to distinguish between PD and atypical PD syndromes. Immunosensor was generated by current-volt measurement on gap-fingered interdigitated electrode with silicon dioxide surface to determine NfL level. To enhance the detection, anti-NfL antibody was complexed with gold-nanourchin and immobilized on the sensing electrode. The current-volt response was gradually increased at the linear detection range from 100 fM to 1 nM. Limit of detection and sensitivity were 100 fM with the signal-to-noise ratio at n = 3 on a linear curve (y = 0.081x + 1.593; R (2) = 0.9983). Limit of quantification falls at 1 pM and high performance of the sensor was demonstrated by discriminating against other neurogenerative disease markers, in addition, it was reproducible even in serum-spiked samples. This method of detection system aids to measure the level of NfL and leads to determine the condition with PD.
