Patent number: 11105767Abstract: A method for preparing a dual-functional hybrid thin-film for self-calibration detection of tumor-derived exosomes is disclosed. A dual-functional hybrid thin-film, aptamer-BPNSs/Fc/ZIF-67/ITO, is constructed by facile self-assembly of a cobalt-based metal-organic framework (ZIF-67) composite doped with black phosphorus nanosheets (BPNSs), an aptamer and ferrocene (Fc) on an indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode. Methylene blue (MB) labeled aptamer specifically binds to CD63 protein to precisely capture protein. The protein is a specific biomolecule carried by breast cancer MCF-7 cell exosome, and realizes the detection of the tumor cell exosome. A self-calibration sensor for quantitative detection of the tumor exosome is constructed by using MB as a response signal and Fc as a reference.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2019Date of Patent: August 31, 2021Assignee: QINGDAO UNIVERSITYInventors: Rijun Gui, Yujiao Sun, Hui Jin

Patent number: 11099150Abstract: A method for preparing a ratiometric electrochemical miR3123 aptasensor based on a copper-based metal-organic framework (Cu-MOF) composite doped with black phosphorus nanosheets (BPNSs) and thionine (TH) is provided. TH/Cu-MOF is prepared by reacting TH with Cu-MOF precursor, and BPNSs/TH/Cu-MOF is prepared by drop coating the BPNSs and drop coated onto an electrode. A ferrocene (Fc)-labeled single-stranded DNA aptamer is adsorbed on the BPNSs to prepare aptamer-BPNSs/TH/Cu-MOF. Target molecule miR3123 is bonded with the single-stranded DNA aptamer Fc-DNA, Fc-DNA is forced to escape from the BPNSs. Electrochemical signals of Fc are, therefore, weakened while TH signals are slightly affected. The ratiometric electrochemical miR3123 aptasensor is constructed by fitting a linear relationship between peak current intensity ratios IFc/ITH and concentrations of the miR3123.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2019Date of Patent: August 24, 2021Assignee: QINGDAO UNIVERSITYInventors: Rijun Gui, Yujiao Sun, Hui Jin, Xiaowen Jiang

Patent number: 10983057Abstract: A method for preparing a ratiometric fluorescent sensor for paracetamol based on a copper nanoclusters-carbon dots-arginine composite is provided. Copper nanoclusters CuNCs with red fluorescence are bonded to carbon dots (CDs) with blue fluorescence by electrostatic adsorption and hydrogen bonding, and then arginine is added to form the CuNCs-CDs-arginine composite. The addition of arginine leads to a significant decrease in the blue fluorescence of the CDs, while after the paracetamol is added, the blue fluorescence of the CDs gradually recovered as a result of the specific binding of arginine to paracetamol. The ratiometric fluorescent sensor for paracetamol is constructed by taking the fluorescence of the CuNCs as a reference signal, and the fluorescence of the CDs as a response signal, and fitting the linear relationship between the ratios ICDs/ICuNCs of fluorescence emission peak intensities of CDs and CuNCs and the molar concentrations of paracetamol.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2019Date of Patent: April 20, 2021Assignee: QINGDAO UNIVERSITYInventors: Hui Jin, Rijun Gui, Xiangning Bu, Yongxin Fu

Publication number: 20210047559Abstract: A method for preparing a ratiometric fluorescent probe for melamine based on a DNA-stable silver nanocluster-rhodamine 6G complex, wherein the electrostatic self-assembly technology is adopted to construct a silver nanocluster-rhodamine 6G complex. The melamine forms a strong hydrogen bond with thymine in the DNA of the surface of the silver nanocluster, causing rhodamine 6G to dissociate from the surface of the silver nanocluster, destroying the fluorescence resonance energy transfer, so as to restore the fluorescence of the silver nanocluster. This process has little effect on Rhodamine 6G fluorescence which can be used as a reference signal, while silver nanocluster fluorescence can be used as a response signal. By fitting the linear relationship between the ratio of fluorescence emission peak intensities of the silver nanocluster to rhodamine 6G and the molar concentration of the melamine, the ratiometric fluorescent probe for melamine can be constructed.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 5, 2019Publication date: February 18, 2021Applicant: Qingdao UniversityInventors: Rijun GUI, Yongxin FU, Hui JIN, Xiangning BU
