Asymmetric split-ring resonator-based biosensor for detection of label-free stress biomarkers

Abstract: In this paper, an asymmetric split-ring resonator, metamaterial element, is presented as a biosensing transducer for detection of highly sensitive and label-free stress biomarkers. In particular, the two biomarkers, cortisol and α-amylase, are used for evaluating the sensitivity of the proposed biosensor. In case of cortisol detection, the competitive reaction between cortisol-bovine serum albumin and free cortisol is employed, while alpha-amylase is directly detected by its antigen-antibody reaction.

“…As Figure 10 shows, Lee et al exhibited various SRR-based biomarker sensors with different patterns, such as symmetric single ring, double ring and asymmetric single ring. In their works, the frequency shifts were obtained at different concentrations of biomarkers and calculated to show excellent results for the detection of PSA, cortisol, and alpha-amylase, respectively [ 155 157 ]. Due to the tunable plasmonic metamaterial provided double-channel for both optical and SERS transmissions in Cao et al's work, the sensor could monitor conformational states and binding affinity of biomolecules simultaneously.…”

“…The SRR basically work as an LC resonator. The SRR resonates at its magnetic resonance frequency, when it is excited by a time varying magnetic field [6], [8]. When the time varying magnetic field penetrates the SRR, currents are induced in the rings and flow in the same direction [9].…”

“…The main characteristic of SRR is its very small electrical size, due to this; they are widely used from microwave to terahertz frequency range. In the past, split ring resonators have been used for the sensing of glucose content in blood plasma [4], DNA sensing [5], detection of label free stress biomarkers [6] and for ethanol and petrol sensing [7]. In this work, we have used split ring resonator as sensor to detect the quality of water whether it is fresh water, distilled water or sea water.…”

“…However, this spectroscopy method requires longer stabilization times and is affected by the tissue density, tissue thickness and hematocrit. Recently, radiofrequency (RF)-based label-free biosensors for use in applications, such as the detection of stress biomarkers 18 , biomolecular binding 19 20 , human cell dielectric spectroscopy 21 , and glucose detection 22 23 24 25 26 have been reported. Glucose sensors based on this technique quantitatively assess glucose levels by observing the level of electromagnetic coupling, which depends on glucose permittivity.…”
