Sensitivity-enhanced nanoplasmonic biosensor using direct immobilization of two engineered nanobodies for SARS-CoV-2 spike receptor-binding domain detection.

ABSTRACT: Sensitive, rapid, and easy-to-implement biosensors are critical in responding to highly contagious and fast-spreading severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) mutations, enabling early infection screening for appropriate isolation and treatment measures to prevent the spread of the virus. Based on the sensing principle of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) and nanobody immunological techniques, an enhanced sensitivity nanoplasmonic biosensor was developed to quantify the SARS-CoV-2 spike receptor-binding domain (RBD) in serum within 30 min. The lowest concentration in the linear range can be detected down to 0.01 ng/mL by direct immobilization of two engineered nanobodies. Both the sensor fabrication process and immune strategy are facile and inexpensive, with the potential for large-scale application. The designed nanoplasmonic biosensor achieved excellent specificity and sensitivity for SARS-CoV-2 spike RBD, providing a potential option for accurate early screening of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

Project description:Precise monitoring of the rapidly changing immune status during the course of a disease requires multiplex analysis of cytokines from frequently sampled human blood. However, the current lack of rapid, multiplex, and low volume assays makes immune monitoring for clinical decision-making (e.g., critically ill patients) impractical. Without such assays, immune monitoring is even virtually impossible for infants and neonates with infectious diseases and/or immune mediated disorders as access to their blood in large quantities is prohibited. Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR)-based microfluidic optical biosensing is a promising approach to fill this technical gap as it could potentially permit real-time refractometric detection of biomolecular binding on a metallic nanoparticle surface and sensor miniaturization, both leading to rapid and sample-sparing analyte analysis. Despite this promise, practical implementation of such a microfluidic assay for cytokine biomarker detection in serum samples has not been established primarily due to the limited sensitivity of LSPR biosensing. Here, we developed a high-throughput, label-free, multiarrayed LSPR optical biosensor device with 480 nanoplasmonic sensing spots in microfluidic channel arrays and demonstrated parallel multiplex immunoassays of six cytokines in a complex serum matrix on a single device chip while overcoming technical limitations. The device was fabricated using easy-to-implement, one-step microfluidic patterning and antibody conjugation of gold nanorods (AuNRs). When scanning the scattering light intensity across the microarrays of AuNR ensembles with dark-field imaging optics, our LSPR biosensing technique allowed for high-sensitivity quantitative cytokine measurements at concentrations down to 5-20 pg/mL from a 1 μL serum sample. Using the nanoplasmonic biosensor microarray device, we demonstrated the ability to monitor the inflammatory responses of infants following cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery through tracking the time-course variations of their serum cytokines. The whole parallel on-chip assays, which involved the loading, incubation, and washing of samples and reagents, and 10-fold replicated multianalyte detection for each sample using the entire biosensor arrays, were completed within 40 min.
