Abstract 

A Golgi protein 73 (GP73) colorimetric biosensor based on the reduced graphene oxide-carboxymethyl chitosan-hemin/platinum@palladium nanoparticles (RGO-CMCS-Hemin/Pt@Pd NPs) with peroxidase-like activity was constructed. The RGO-CMCS-Hemin/Pt@Pd NPs with high peroxidase-like activity were successfully synthesized under mild conditions. Then, the aminylated GP73 aptamer (Apt) was bound to the RGO-CMCS-Hemin/Pt@Pd NPs to form the recognition probe. Another unmodified GP73 aptamer (AptI) was served as the capture probe. In the presence of target GP73, the capture probe and the recognition probe specifically bind to GP73 and form a RGO-CMCS-Hemin/Pt@Pd NP-Apt/GP73/AptI sandwich-type structure, which can oxidase the colorless 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) into blue oxTMB in the presence of H2O2. GP73 detection was achieved by measuring the peak UV absorption at 652 nm. Under the optimum conditions, the GP73 concentration was linearly related to the absorbance intensity in the range 10.0–110.0 ng/mL, and the limit of detection (LOD) was 4.7 ng/mL. The proposed colorimetric biosensor was successfully applied to detect GP73 in spiked human serum samples with recoveries of 98.2–107.0% and RSDs of 1.90–5.44%, demonstrating the excellent potential for highly sensitive GP73 detection in clinical detection.

Graphical abstract

A colorimetric biosensor for visual determination of GP73 based on RGO-CMCS-Hemin/Pt@Pd NPs nanozyme with peroxidase-like activity was designed. The GP73 biosensor responses linearly from 10.0–110.0 ng/mL with LOD of 4.7 ng/mL, and shows acceptable specificity and good recovery.
