Abstract:

A novel, simple and label free method was constructed for the quantitative detection of myoglobin based on the aptamer-capped mesoporous silica nanoparticles. Rhodamine 6G, a kind of small fluorescent molecules, was blocked in the aptamer-capped mesoporous silica particles. In the presence of myoglobin, the aptamer left from the mesoporous surface and the fluorescence intensity was significantly enhanced after releasing rhodamine 6G to the solution. The result showed that the concentration of myoglobin was positively associated with the fluorescence intensity of the solution. Therefore, the quantitative detection of myoglobin was achieved by monitoring the change of fluorescence intensity. Through this strategy, the limit of detection(LOD) of myoglobin was proved to be 1.1 nmol/L with excellent selectivity. It was suggested that the method could satisfactorily meet the detection requirement of myoglobin in clinical medicine.
