Electrochemical Immunoassay for Determination of Glycated Albumin using Nanozymes.

ABSTRACT: We developed a new nanozyme-based electrochemical immunoassay method for the monitoring of glycated albumin (GA) known to reflect short-term glycaemic levels. For this study, we synthesized urchin-like Pt nanozymes (uPtNZs) and applied them to colorimetric and electrochemical assays for sensitive determination of GA in total human serum albumin (tHSA) using 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and thionine as substrates, respectively. The uPtNZs showed peroxidase-mimic activity in the presence of hydrogen peroxide. Boronic acid (BA)-agarose bead was used to capture GA through specific cis-diol interactions. uPtNZs were modified with GA antibody (GA-Ab) to form sandwich complexes with GA/BA-agarose bead. The amount of Ab-uPtNZ/GA/BA-agarose bead complex increased with increasing percentage
