- 摘要:Developing a generalized strategy for the nonfouling detection of biomarkers in diverse biological fluids presents a significant challenge. Herein, a polyhydroxyproline helical peptide (PHHP) was designed and adopted to fabricate electrochemical microsensors capable of detecting targets in various biological media. The PHHP possessed unique properties such as strong hydrophilicity, rigid structure, and lack of ionizable side-chain groups. Compared with common zwitterionic peptides (ZIPs), the PHHP exhibited similar antifouling capability but exceptional stability, allowing its antifouling performance to be unaffected by environmental alteration. The PHHP can prevent biofouling even in fluctuating pH conditions, high ionic strength environments, and the presence of high-valence ions and resist the protease hydrolysis. The PHHP-modified carbon fiber microelectrode was further immobilized with an aptamer to construct an antifouling microsensor for cortisol detection across diverse biofluids, and the microsensor exhibited acceptable accuracy and higher sensitivity than the ELISA method. In addition, different biological samples of mice were collected in situ using a microsensing device, and cortisol levels were analyzed in each specifically tailored region. This nonfouling sensing strategy based on PHHP allows a comprehensive assessment of biomarkers in both spatial and temporal dimensions in diverse biological environments, holding promising potential for early disease diagnosis and real-time health monitoring.
