Hybrid Aptamer-Antibody Linked Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer Based Detection of Trinitrotoluene

Abstract: Combining synthetic macromolecules and biomolecular recognition units are promising in developing novel diagnostic and analysis techniques for detecting environmental and/or clinically important substances. Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) apta-immunosensor for explosive detection is reported using 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) specific aptamer and antibodies tagged with respective FRET pair dyes in a sandwich immunoassay format. FITC-labeled aptamer was used as a binder molecule in the newly develo… Show more

“…Very recently, Suri and co-workers reported on using TNT specific aptamer and antibodies tagged with respective FRET pair for explosives detection. 256 The as-developed sensor showed excellent sensitivity with LOD of 0.4 nM. Secondly, researchers are harnessing fluorescent properties of biomaterials such as fluorescent proteins to serve as explosives sensors.…”

“…Chem 3D is a powerful modeling program which can be used to generate 3D models and calculate the structure and properties of molecules. [29]. Considering the structural similarity of EDTA and AAPTS‐COOH, 3D models of EDTA, and AAPTS‐COOH coordinating with Cu 2+ were constructed using Chem 3D software (ChemBio3D Ultra 14.0), respectively.…”

“…A significant advantage of the use of aptamers compared to antibody probes is that this approach can be readily adapted to any aptamer/antibody or aptamer/aptamer sandwich assay combination with the number of examples of both continuing to rise in the literature. [45][46][47][48] Furthermore, by exploring different nanoparticle shapes we highlight the versatility of this approach and we also expect the use of different modified DNA sequences binding to the aptamer will expand this approach to other surface-based signal transduction mechanisms such as electrochemistry. 49 As well as developing a new amplification mechanism, it was 15 demonstrated that even further improvements in sensitivity could be achieved compared to previous efforts focusing on a single nanoparticle amplification step.…”
