    Abstract:
    A multiple amplification immunoassay was proposed to detect alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), which was based on ferrocenemonocarboxylic-HRP conjugated on Pt nanoparticles as labels for rolling circle amplification (RCA). Firstly, the capture antibody (anti-AFP) was immobilized on glass carbon electrode (GCE) deposited nano-sized gold particles. After a typical immuno-sandwich protocol, primary DNA was immobilized by labeling secondary antibody, which acted as a precursor to initiate RCA. The products of RCA provide large amount of sites to link detection DNAs, which were labeled by signal probes (ferrocenemonocarboxylic) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Moreover, the enzymatic amplification signals could be produced by the catalysis of HRP and Pt nanoparticles with the addition of H₂O₂. These lead to multiple amplification signals monitoring by electrochemical instrument and further resulted in high sensitivity of the immunoassay with the detection limit of 1.7 pg/mL.
