Özet
A novel impedimetric aptasensor for detection of human activated protein C (APC) was introduced for the first time in the present study. An enhanced sensor response was obtained using poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimer having 16 succinamic acid surface groups (generation 2, G2-PS), that was modified onto the surface of screen printed graphite electrode (G2-PS/SPE). An amino modified DNA aptamer was then immobilized onto the surface of G2-PS modified SPE. The selective interaction of APT with its cognate protein, APC was investigated using different electrochemical techniques; differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The microscopic characterization was consecutively performed before/after each modification/interaction step using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The selectivity of aptasensor was tested in the presence of numerous proteins; protein C, thrombin, bovine serum albumin, factor Va and chromogenic substrate in different buffer mediums. The APC detection in the artificial serum; fetal bovine serum (FBS) was also performed impedimetrically. This dendrimer modified aptasensor technology brings several advantages: being single-use, fast screening with low-cost per measurement and resulting in sensitive detection of APC with the detection limits of 0.74 mu g/mL (0.46 pmol in 35 mu L sample) in buffer medium, and 2.03 mu g/mL (1.27 pmol in 35 mu L sample) in serum.
