Multiplex aptamer microarrays were optimized for simultaneous protein detection. Neutravidin-coated slides and a universal buffer enabled sensitive quantification of multiple analytes, advancing proteomics applications.

Area of Science:

  • Biotechnology
  • Analytical Chemistry
  • Proteomics

Background:

  • Aptamer-based microarrays offer a platform for multiplexed protein quantitation.
  • Simultaneous detection of multiple protein analytes requires careful optimization of assay conditions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and optimize a multiplex aptamer microarray for simultaneous quantification of multiple protein analytes.
  • To investigate the impact of various parameters on aptamer microarray performance.

Main Methods:

  • Printing of RNA and DNA aptamers (anti-lysozyme, anti-ricin, anti-IgE, anti-thrombin) onto streptavidin or neutravidin-coated slides.
  • Optimization of protein labeling, assay buffer, surface coating, and immobilization chemistry.
  • Evaluation of assay performance using Cy3-labeled proteins and analysis of detection limits and specificity.

Main Results:

  • A single optimized buffer (PBS with MgCl2 and Tween 20) supported all aptamers.
  • Neutravidin-coated slides demonstrated superior performance (lower detection limit, wider range, uniform background) compared to streptavidin-coated slides.
  • Sensitive, target-specific, and dose-dependent responses were achieved, with detection limits as low as 72 pg/mL for lysozyme.

Conclusions:

  • Optimized aptamer microarrays enable sensitive and simultaneous quantification of multiple protein targets.
  • Neutravidin coating and a universal buffer are key for robust multiplex aptamer microarray performance.
  • Aptamer arrays show significant potential for high-throughput proteomics and biomarker discovery.
