Novel Immune TiO2 Photoluminescence Biosensors for Leucosis Detection
Abstract Novel immune photoluminescent biosensor, based on TiO2 nanoparticles, for retroviral leucosis detection has been developed. The photoluminescence spectra were excited by solid state laser with wavelength 355 nm and measured in the range of 370-800 nm. Original photoluminescence spectrum of TiO2 nanoparticles showed wide maximum at 515 nm. The biosensitive layer was formed by immobilization of retroviral leucosis antigens on the surface of TiO2 nanoparticles. Immobilization of antigens on TiO2 surface led to UV-shift of photoluminescence spectrum and increase of PL intensity. The response to different concentrations of retroviral leucosis antibodies has been measured. The decrease o…
Photoluminescence immunosensor based on bovine leukemia virus proteins immobilized on the ZnO nanorods
Bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) proteins gp51, which are serving as antigens for specific antibodies against BLV proteins (anti-gp51), were applied as biological recognition part in the design of immunosensor devoted for the determination of anti-gp51. The efficiency of the immobilization of BLV proteins gp51 on ZnO nanorod (ZnO- NR) modified glass (ZnO-NR/glass) surface was evaluated. The formation of antigen-antibody complex on the ZnO/glass modified by the BLV proteins gp51 (gp51/ZnO-NR/glass) was investigated by the determination of changes in ZnO photoluminescence. The applicability of gp51/ZnO-NR/glass in the design of photoluminescence based immunosensor was evaluated. Bovine serum albu…
Toward development of optical biosensors based on photoluminescence of TiO2 nanoparticles for the detection of Salmonella
Quality control of food and agriculture production is an inseparable part of human safety and wellbeing. Salmonella infections belong to one of the most monitored pathogens in the world, therefore advanced determination of this pathogen can decrease the risks of human diseases caused by this microorganism. In this research we introduce a novel optical immunosensor for determination of Salmonella typhimurium. The immunosensor is based on Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles deposited on glass substrates (glass/TiO2)center dot TiO2 nanoparticles exhibit an intense photoluminescence (PL) in the visible range of spectrum at room temperature. The direct immobilization of antibodies (anti-S-Ab) …
