ABSTRACT
The ultrasensitive and quantitative detection of renal cancer protein biomarkers present at ultralow concentrations for early-stage cancer diagnosis requires a biosensing probe possessing ultrahigh detection sensitivity and remarkable biosensing selectivity. Here, we report an optical microfiber integrated with Ti3C2-supported gold nanorod hybrid nanointerfaces for implementation in ultrasensitive sensing of the carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) protein and renal cancer cells. Because the evanescent field of the fiber is strongly coupled with nanointerfaces in the near-infrared region, the proposed optical microfiber biosensor achieves ultrahigh-sensitivity detection of the CAIX protein biomarker with ultralow limits of detection (LODs) of 13.8 zM in pure buffer solution and 0.19 aM in 30% serum solution. In addition, the proposed sensor also successfully and specifically recognizes living renal cancer cells in cell culture media with a LOD of 180 cells/mL. This strategy may serves as a powerful biosensing platform that combines the quantification of protein biomarkers and cancer cells, resulting in a higher accuracy of early-stage renal cancer diagnosis and screenings.
