SERS based Y-shaped aptasensor for early diagnosis of acute kidney injury.

ABSTRACT: Considering the pivotal role of biomarkers in plasma, the development of biomarker specific sensing platforms is of great significance to achieve accurate diagnosis and monitor the occurrence and progress in acute kidney injury (AKI). In this paper, we develop a promising surface-enhanced Raman scattering-based aptasensor for duplex detection of two protein biomarkers in AKI. Exploiting the base-pairing specificity of nucleic acids to form a Y-shaped self-assembled aptasensor, the MGITC labelled gold nanoparticles will be attached to the surface of magnetic beads. In the presence of specific AKI-related biomarkers, the gold nanoparticles will detach from magnetic beads into the supernatant, thus leading to a SERS signal increase, which can be used for the highly sensitive analysis of targe
