ABSTRACT
The importance of avian influenza virus (AIV) detection in clinical diagnosis and prognosis has been deeply recognized. In this study, the ultrasensitive detection of AIV subtype H5N1 was achieved by ICP-MS combined with DNA dendrimer-carried silver nanoparticle (AgNP) labeling. First, a magnetic control system was constructed by anchoring double-strand DNAs (dsDNAs) which contained a complementary sequence of H5N1 and two locked triggers on the surface of magnetic beads (MBs). When H5N1 was present, the two triggers were released and initiated dendrimer hybridization chain reactions which led to the generation of DNA dendrimer-carried AgNPs on the surface of the MBs. Finally, the AgNPs were collected via magnetic separation, digested by nitric acid, and tested using ICP-MS. The signal intensities of 107Ag were positively correlated with the concentrations of H5N1. Notably, the DNA dendrimer assembly contributed to significant signal amplification and good sensitivity with the limit of detection as low as 2.0 × 10-11 mol L-1. Moreover, the method displayed favorable selectivity against mismatched H5N1 and good recoveries in human serum samples. It is a promising analytical tool for the H5N1 virus and other subtypes of AIV, and has potential value in clinical diagnosis and prognosis of infectious diseases.
