Study on the performance of novel nanomaterials for detection of biomarkers such as PCT based on immunochromatography sensitivity.

In this study, by comparing the UV-vis spectral characteristics of colloidal gold and colloidal gold enhancer, and their differences as immunochromatographic tracers in the qualitative detection of PCT, IL-6, Hp and quantitative determination of PCT performance, the factors that may affect the sensitivity were discussed. The results show that the absorbance at 520 nm of CGE diluted 20-fold and colloidal gold diluted 2-fold were comparable, and the sensitivity of CGE immunoprobe for qualitative detection of PCT, IL-6 and Hp was higher than that of colloidal gold immunoprobe, and the reproducibility and accuracy of both immunoprobes for quantitative detection of PCT were good. Indicating that the high sensitivity of CGE immunoprobe detection is mainly due to the absorption coefficient of CGE at 520 nm is about 10 times that of colloidal gold immunoprobe, CGE has stronger light absorption capacity and stronger quenching effect on rhodamine 6 G on the nitrocellulose membrane surface of the test strip.
