The detection of atrazine using a novel optical immunosensing technique based on negative dielectrophoresis (n-DEP) in microfluidic channels is described. Atrazine is a toxic triazine herbicide within the most frequently used. Polystyrene microparticles (6 mu m diameters) modified with bovine serum albumin conjugated with atrazine (atrazine-BSA) were manipulated and captured when subjected to intense n-DEP electric fields. Specifically, particles were trapped when AC voltages with amplitudes of 10 V-peak and frequencies over 1 MHz were applied to the electrodes. The immunological reaction occurring on the particles for detecting atrazine is based on an indirect competitive assay using a secondary anti-mouse immunogloburin G (IgC) antibody labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate. The microfluidic device, with three-dimensional microelectrodes, was fabricated comprising two caged areas, allowing two simultaneous measurements inside the same microfluidic channel. The performance of this n-DEP immunosensing technique was evaluated using wine samples. The immunodevice showed a limit of detection for atrazine in buffer samples of 0.11 mu g L-1 and in pre-treated wine samples of 6.8 mu g L-1; these detection limits are lower than the maximum residue level (MRL) established by the European Community for residues of this herbicide in wine (50 mu g L-1). This methodology offers great promise for rapid, simple, cost effective, and on-site analysis of biological, foods and beverages, and environmental samples. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V.
