    Abstract:
    A sensitive and selective wavelength-modulation surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor based on graphene oxide (GO) and Au bipyramids (AuBPs) is reported for determination of bovine IgM. GO sheets with lengths of 100-300 nm are synthesized and assembled on amine-modified Au film. The large surface area and abundant functional groups of GO allow the efficient immobilization of antibody. AuBPs are nanoparticles with a penta-twinned crystal structure, which have a sharp localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) band because of their high monodispersity. In the optimal conditions, the GO-based biosensor with AuBPs as sensitivity enhancers shows a satisfactory response to bovine IgM in the concentration range of 0.03-32 μg mL(-1). For contrast, traditional biosensor, GO-based biosensor and GO-based biosensor with Au nanorods (AuNRs) as sensitivity enhancers for antigen detection were also investigated. Consequently, the as-prepared GO sheets function as promising support for antibody and GO-based SPR biosensor using AuBPs as enhancers has the highest sensitivity among the four types of biosensors.
