ABSTRACT
Recently, some metabolites in skin interstitial fluid (SIF) have become emerging re×sources for early disease diagnosis. However, their low level in SIF and difficulty to sampling are the biggest obstacle to further potential application. Here, a swellable microneedle array patch (MNAP) with high mechanical strength is presented, and the rapid enrichment of positively charged metabolites is achieved. The MNAP is fabricated by poly (chondroitin sulfate-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid)-gold nanoparticles (GNPs) composites via a micro-molding. The negatively charged copolymer hydrogel not only enrich positively charged metabolites, but also provide swellable capacity. The in situ synthesis of GNPs in the process of copolymerization make the GNPs cross-link to the hydrogel, which further enhance the MNAP mechanical strength and enrichment efficiency for positively charged metabolites. By using the MNAP, around 5 mg SIF in 10 min from the high fat/cholecalciferol/methimazole-induced atherogenesis rat is extracted and 23 metabolites including 13 quaternary ammonium cationic compounds can be detected and quantified by using a LC-QTOF-MS. Dysregulated L-carnitine and choline metabolism are discovered a week earlier in the SIF than in the serum, achieving early diagnosis of the metabolism syndrome disease. This MNAP also helps users complete home sampling for early disease diagnosis and monitoring.
