Sensitive microRNA detection based on bimetallic label photothermal lateral flow locked nucleic acid biosensor with smartphone readout

Yan Huang et al.

Summary: To achieve fast, convenient, and highly sensitive detection of microRNA (miRNA), palladium-gold (Pd-Au) bimetallic nanoplates with high photothermal effect were synthesized and combined with locked nucleic acid (LNA) detection probe to develop a photothermal lateral flow locked nucleic acid biosensor (P-LFLNAB) for miRNA detection. The P-LFLNAB enables sensitive and selective miRNA-21 detection with detection limit down to 0.094 pM using a smartphone with external thermal imager, which is 639.5 times lower than that of the conventional gold nanoparticles based colorimetric lateral flow biosensor and the most sensitive enzyme-free lateral flow biosensor for miRNA detection. Besides, the P-LFLNAB achieved single-base mismatch discrimination and can quantify signals in various cell lysates. This highly sensitive, selective and portable P-LFLNAB with smartphone readout has great potential in point-of-care test of miRNAs-related biomedical application.
