Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Analytical Chemistry
  • Immunotechnology

Background:

  • Continuous monitoring of systemic inflammatory responses is crucial for patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).
  • Existing biosensing methods may lack the sensitivity or efficiency required for real-time monitoring during and after CPB procedures.
  • Developing advanced biosensing platforms is essential for timely clinical interventions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a novel microfluidic device for semi-continuous biosensing of inflammatory biomarkers.
  • To enhance the efficiency of antigen-antibody binding through bead concentration and localized bioreactor formation.
  • To demonstrate the device's capability in detecting key inflammatory markers relevant to CPB.

Main Methods:

  • A microfluidic device employing a bead packing and release mechanism using elastomeric valves was designed.
  • Receptor-coated beads were concentrated to form localized bioreactors for enhanced binding.
  • The device was tested for sensitivity using streptavidin-coated beads and biotin-4-fluorescein (B4F).
  • Semi-continuous immunoassay for interleukin-6 (IL-6) was performed to assess its performance in a clinically relevant context.

Main Results:

  • The biosensing device demonstrated high sensitivity, detecting B4F at concentrations as low as 50 pg/mL within a 5-minute incubation period.
  • The device successfully performed semi-continuous immunoassay for interleukin-6 (IL-6).
  • A linear correlation was observed between fluorescence intensity and IL-6 concentrations ranging from 10 to 250 pg/mL, a physiologically relevant range for CPB.

Conclusions:

  • The developed microfluidic bead packing and release system offers a promising platform for semi-continuous biosensing.
  • The localized bioreactor approach significantly improves binding efficiency and assay sensitivity.
  • This technology has potential applications in monitoring inflammatory responses during and after cardiopulmonary bypass, enabling timely clinical management.
