Abstract:
Gold-platinum (Au@Pt) nanozymes with high catalytic activity and stability were designed to improve the stability of the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and a two-mode signal output was used to enhance the sensitivity and confidence of the assay. This study reports the two-mode signal output based on Au@Pt nanozyme to catalyzed 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) reaction. Oxidized 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (ox-TMB) has wide absorption spectrum, providing excellent optical density capabilities and fluorescence quenching. The detection limits of imidacloprid were 0.88 μg/L and 1.14 μg/L in colorimetric and fluorescence modes, respectively. Multiple-mode strategy improves detection accuracy, increases the confidence of experimental results, and broadens detection modes. Two modes can meet the requirements of accurate and flexible multi-mode sensing in different application situations.
