Microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (microPADs) are a promising platform for point-of-care assays. This study evaluated and compared 33 chromogenic substrate solutions for horseradish peroxidase (HRP) in terms of their analytical performance. The results showed that TMB and OPD substrates achieved the best overall performance. The findings of this study will guide the selection and formulation of substrate solutions for future paper-based assays involving HRP.
Microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (microPADs) are an emerging platform for point-of-care assays with potential applications ranging from medical diagnostics to environmental monitoring. A standard approach for signal generation and amplification on microPADs is the use of enzymes and chromogenic substrates, which produce colored products and enable the qualitative and quantitative detection of analytes. Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is one of the most commonly used enzymes for this application. While a wide variety of chromogenic substrates and substrate solutions are available for HRP, these were all originally developed and optimized for other platforms and have not been systematically compared on microPADs. In this work, 33 chromogenic substrate solutions for HRP containing one of six different substrate molecules were evaluated in a standardized colorimetric assay and compared on the basis of limit of detection (LOD), lower limit of quanti-tation (LLOQ), upper limit of quantitation (ULOQ), sensitivity, dynamic range, stability, and cost. While the substrates tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and o-phenylenediamine (OPD) were found to achieve the best overall analytical performance, each substrate had characteristics that may make them appealing for specific applica-tions. The results of this work will facilitate the selection of substrate molecules and the formulation of substrate solutions for future colorimetric paper-based assays involving HRP.
