Application of Raman scattering properties of transition metal dichalcogenides in immunoassays
To realize biodetection based on Raman scattering of semiconductor under visible light excitation, the Raman probe was constructed by using MoS2 material, a narrow bandgap semiconductor, to realize high specific recognition of the human IgG molecule. First, MoS2 and WS2 micromaterials were obtained by liquid-phase exfoliation method. The effect of temperature on the intensity of the Raman signal excitated by a 532 nm laser was analyzed through heating and aging treatment. Second, the carboxyl group was introduced to the surface of the MoS2 material by 3-mercaptopropionic acid modification, and a Raman probe was obtained. Finally, the performance of the MoS2 based immunoassay was evaluated by using a sandwich structure of "antibody-analyte-antibody". It was found that the heating and aging treatment at appropriate temperature enhanced the Raman scattering intensity of the transition metal disulfide (70 ℃ is the optimal). The results of control groups show that the Raman intensity of the immunodetection increased and saturated with the concentration of the human IgG. The detection limit is 1 fM. The current procedure realized immunoassays with high sensitivity and high specificity by using the Raman scattering of semiconductor under visible light excitation.
