The investigation of the interaction between fluorescent carbon dots labeling silk fibroin using a fluorescence microscope–surface plasmon resonance system
Spectrochimica Acta Part A: Molecular and Biomolecular Spectroscopy(2024)
摘要
The use of fluorescent carbon dots (CDs) as highly precise biolabeling probes has been widespread in the fields of live cell imaging and protein labeling due to their small size and excellent photoluminescence ability to accurately target specific molecules with surface chemical properties. However, there was a lack of research on the interaction between CDs and labeled molecules. In this work, we presented a novel investigation strategy, the fluorescence microscopy-surface plasmon resonance (FM-SPR) system, which combined the use of fluorescence microscopy and wavelength modulation surface plasmon resonance to study the interaction between CDs and labeled molecules in real-time. Using this system, simultaneously recorded the SPR signals and the fluorescence images on the surface of the FM-SPR sensor chip. We observed the dynamic curve and fluorescence images of the interaction between green emissive nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) and silk fibroin (SF) in real-time. The kinetic parameters, the quantitative analysis, and the investigation of the binding could be achieved. The results showed a strong linear relationship between the change in SPR signals and the concentration of N-CDs, with a linear coefficient of 0.99913. The linear detection range was 2.5 μg/mL-100 μg/mL, and the real lowest detection limit reached 0.5 μg/mL. Additionally, the green fluorescence points in the imaging region on the FM-SPR sensor chip increased with the concentration of N-CDs, which was consistent with the change in SPR signals. Using this system we also acquired the association rate and dissociation rate of N-CDs to SF which were 2.65 × 10−5/s and 1.52 × 10−5/s, respectively. This demonstrated the effectiveness of our method in quantitatively analyzing SF labeled with N-CDs.
