    Author: Qian J, Dai H, Pan X, Liu S.

    Abstract:
    Simultaneous detection of multianalytes associated with a particular cancer is beneficial for disease diagnosis. Here, a facile immunosensing strategy was designed to allow simultaneous electrochemical detection of dual proteins, in a single run. CdSe and PbS water-soluble quantum dots (QDs) were prepared and coated on monodisperse silica nanoparticles as labels for proteins detection. Rabbit immunoglobulin G antigen (IgG) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) were chosen as model proteins for analysis. After a typical sandwich immunoassay, CdSe and PbS QDs labels were introduced onto the Au substrates' surface, which were then dissolved and could be simultaneously monitored by square-wave-voltammetric (SWV) stripping measurements. Under selected conditions, IgG and CEA could be assayed in the ranges of 0.05-40 ng mL(-1) and 0.05-25 ng mL(-1), respectively. The proposed method possessed high sensitivity, good precision, and satisfactory reproducibility and regeneration.
