Abstract

Quantum dots have physical and optical properties that make them useful tools for high-resolution labeling immunoassay. In this work, a rapid and simple method of quantitative immunoassay for Cardiac troponin I(cTnI) was developed with quantum dots-labeled antibodies. The monoclonal antibodies of cTnI(2F11) could be labeled with CdTe quantum dots and the coupled product(CdTe-2F11) were characterized by SDS-PAGE. The result of immunofiltration assay indicats that the CdTe-2F11 maintains the antibody activity. The cTnI at the different concentrations in NC membrane could react with CdTe-2F11 and be detected with Image Master to analyze the fluorescence intensity of the immunodotting. The results show that the detection limit of cTnI is 120 ng, and there is a good linear relation between concentration of cTnI and the fluorescence intensity(R2=0.9966).
