MXene supported biomimetic bilayer lipid membrane biosensor for zeptomole detection of BRCA1 gene.

A biomimetic bilayer lipid membrane supported MXene based biosensor is reported for electrochemical hybridization detection of the most prevalent and potential BC biomarker BRCA1. 2D MXene nanosheet-anchored gold nanoparticle-decorated biomimetic bilayer lipid membrane (AuNP@BLM) biosensor is used for the attachment of thiolated single-stranded DNA (HS-ssDNA) targeting hybridization detection. The interaction of biomimetic bilayer lipid membrane with 2D MXene nanosheets is explored in this work for the first time.

Electrochemical label free sensing of human IgG - Protein A interaction.

A novel and rapid Electrochemical Immunosensing platform was developed for the direct sensing of antibody human immuno globulin gamma (IgG) interaction with virulence factor of S. aureus, staphylococcal protein A (SpA) in the presence of electroactive redox couple ferri/ferro cyanide (K/K[Fe(CN)]). The receptor SpA was attached to BioPE-DOTAP binary lipid bilayer tethered on alkane thiol molecular cushions.

Carbon dots stabilized silver-lipid nano hybrids for sensitive label free DNA detection.

Carbon dots have been extensively used for the development of fluorescent based molecular affinity sensors. However, label free DNA sensing by electrochemical method is not reported so far. Herein, we report carbon dots stabilized silver nanoparticles (CD-AgNPs) lipid nano hybrids as a sensitive and selective platform for label free electrochemical DNA sensing.

Supported binary liposome vesicle-gold nanoparticle for enhanced label free DNA and protein sensing.

Supported binary liposome mixture of cationic liposome N-[1-(2,3-Dioleoyloxy)propyl]-N,N,N-trimethylammonium propane (DOTAP) and the zwitterionic liposome 1,2-Dioleoyl-sn-Glycero-3-Phosphoethanolamine (DOPE) were tethered on thiol monolayers in the absence and presence of gold nanoparticle to enhance sensor stability and sensitivity for label free DNA and protein sensing for the first time. Cysteamine hydrochloride (Cyst), 3-Mercaptopropionic acid (MPA), 11-Mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUDA) and 11-amino-1-undecane thiol (AUT) monolayers were used as tethers on gold surfaces. Electrochemical studies in the presence of [Fe(CN)] indicate that the presence of both DOPE and AuNP decreases the electrostatic interaction between DOTAP and MPA layer during the formation of DOPE-DOTAP-AuNP (DDA) whereas they enhance the repulsive force on the Cyst and AUT monolayers.
