Area of Science:

  • Nanotechnology
  • Biotechnology
  • Analytical Chemistry

Background:

  • Fluorescence-based biosensors offer high sensitivity.
  • Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) can enhance fluorescence signals.
  • Aptasensors combine nucleic acid recognition with transducer elements.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel aptasensor for adenosine detection.

Main Methods:

  • Synthesized and characterized silver nanoparticles.
  • Modified oligonucleotides with fluorescent dyes (Cy3).
  • Investigated distance-dependent fluorescence between dyes and AgNPs.
  • Constructed a fluorescence 'ON/OFF' switch based on aptamer conformation changes.
  • Validated the aptasensor performance for adenosine detection.

Main Results:

  • Optimized spacing distance for maximum fluorescence enhancement was found to be approximately 8 nm.
  • The aptasensor demonstrated a linear detection range for adenosine from 200 nM to 200 μM.
  • Achieved a low detection limit of 48 nM for adenosine.
  • Exhibited high specificity for adenosine detection.

Conclusions:

  • A novel, highly sensitive aptasensor for adenosine detection was successfully developed.
  • Silver nanoparticle enhanced fluorescence provides a robust signal amplification strategy.
  • The distance-dependent fluorescence mechanism offers a new approach for aptasensor design.
