ABSTRACT
The simple and sensitive detection of protein is of great significance in biological research and medical diagnosis. However, the commonly-used methods, such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), usually rely on signal tags labeled on the antibody, which limits the sensitivity and stability. Herein, we have designed and constructed a colorimetric immunosensor in this work for the analysis of protein by taking advantage of 2D metal-organic framework (2D-MOF) nanomaterials as enzyme mimics. The nanomaterial shows a strong peroxidase mimetic activity, and good selectivity after it is modified with a specific aptamer. Therefore, taking carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) as an example, this immunosensor achieves a good detection performance with a linear range from 1 pg mL-1 to 1000 ng mL-1 and a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.742 pg mL-1. Moreover, the sensor can successfully distinguish the human serum of colorectal cancer patients from healthy people, which suggests that this sensor has great potential in clinical applications. More importantly, the mass production, low cost, stability and ease of transport of the MOFs nanomaterials, as well as the ability for visual detection will make this sensor suitable for point-of-care (POC) testing in remote or resource-poor areas.
