Abstract:
Efficient separation of photo-induced electrons and holes in the photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensors plays an important role in improving detection sensitivity. Based on this point, we report a simple and sensitive photoelectrochemical bioassay for prostate-specific antigen (PSA) detection using lanthanide-doped bismuth ferrite/reduced graphene oxide/tungsten oxide nanohybrids (BLFO/rGO/WO3) as the photo-sensing material. Initially, WO3 was excited under the continuous illumination to generate photo-induced electron-hole pairs. Then, rGO (as a suitable charge transfer medium) could effectively build a bridge between WO3 and BLFO. With the mediation of the built-in electric field in BLFO, the transferred charges were allowed for directional migration in the circuit, thus achieving an effective separation of the photogenerated electron-hole pairs. Coupling with the amplification of enzymatic production (H2O2) and specific recognition of antigen-antibody immunoreaction, target concentration was relative to the corresponding photocurrent, thereby realizing the PSA sensitive detection. Under optimal conditions, the PEC immunoassay exhibited a good linear relationship within a dynamic working range from 0.1 ng mL(-1) to 200 ng mL(-1) with a detection limit of 49.4 pg mL(-1). In addition, this study afforded satisfying specificity, reproducibility, and long-term storage, which also matched well with the commercial PSA ELISA kit.
