A papain-based colorimetric catalytic sensing system for immunoassay detection of carcinoembryonic antigen.
A colorimetric immunoassay was built for determination of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) based on papain-based colorimetric catalytic sensing system through the use of glucose oxidase (GOx). In the presence of GOx, glucose was catalytically oxidized to produce H2 O2 . Through the assistance of papain (as a peroxide mimetic enzyme), the signal came from the oxidative color development of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB, from colorless to blue) catalyzed by the generated H2 O2 . Herein, a sandwich-type immunoassay was built based on GOx as labels. As the concentration of CEA increased, more GOx-labeled antibodies specifically associate with target, which leaded to more H2 O2 generation. Immediately following this, more TMB were oxidized with the addition of papain. Accordingly, the absorbance increased further. As a result, the concentration of CEA is positively correlated with the change in absorbance of the solution. Under optimal conditions, the CEA concentration was linear in the range of 0.05-20.0 ng/mL, and the limit of detection (LOD) reached 37 pg/mL. The papain-based colorimetric immunoassay also exhibited satisfactory repeatability, stability, and selectivity.
