ABSTRACT

A novel silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs)-based optical sensing probe has been developed for the detection of Japanese Encephalitis virus (JEV). Ag NPs were initially deposited onto amine functionalized glass slides. Subsequently, JEV antibodies were self-assembled onto surfaces of Ag NPs to form optical sensing probes. The detection of JEV antigen was observed via changes in light absorbance by Ag NPs upon occurrence of JEV antigen-antibody bindings. A highly sensitive and rapid optical sensing probe for JEV antigen with a detection limit of 12.8 ng/mL (for S/N ratio = 3) and an analysis assay time of 1 h had been demonstrated.

ABSTRAK

Biopenderia optik baru yang berasaskan nano zarah perak (Ag NPs) telah dihasilkan untuk pengesanan antigen virus Ensefalitis Jepun (JEV). Ag NPs telah dimendapkan di atas slaid kaca yang difungsikan dengan amino. Seterusnya antibodi JEV dipegunkan pada permukaan Ag NPs untuk membentuk biopenderia optik. Pengesanan terhadap JEV antigen diperhatikan melalui perubahan penyerapan cahaya oleh Ag NPs apabila berlakunya pengikatan antara JEV antigen dan antibodi. Satu biopenderia optik yang sensitif bagi pengesanan JEV dengan had pengesanan (LOD) sebanyak 12.8 ng/mL (ratio S/N = 3) dan 1 jam masa analisis telah dihasilkan.

 

Kata kunci: Antibodi; antigen virus Ensefalitis Jepun (JEV); biopenderia; nano zarah perak (Ag NPs); perangsang optic
