ABSTRACT
Sensitive detection of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is of great significance in the diagnosis of a fatal acute myocardial infarction. A redox-active nanocomposite of copper(II)-tannic acid@Cu (CuTA@Cu) was herein prepared on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode by electrochemical deposition of metallic copper combined with a metal stripping strategy. Then, HAuCl4 was in situ reduced to gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) by strong reductive catechol groups in the TA ligand. The AuNPs/CuTA@Cu composite was further utilized as a bifunctional matrix for the immobilization of the cTnI antibody (anti-cTnI), producing an electrochemical immunosensor. Electrochemical tests show that the immunoreaction between anti-cTnI and target cTnI can cause a significant reduction of the electrochemical signal of CuTA@Cu. It can be attributed to the insulating characteristic of the immunocomplex and its barrier effect to the electrolyte ion diffusion. From the signal changes of CuTA@Cu, cTnI can be analyzed in a wide range from 10 fg mL-1 to 10 ng mL-1, with an ultralow detection limit of 0.65 fg mL-1. The spiked recovery assays show that the immunosensor is reliable for cTnI determination in human serum samples, demonstrating its promising application in the early clinical diagnosis of myocardial infarction.
