Sensitive Detection of BVDV Using Gold Nanoparticle-Modified Few-Layer Black Phosphorus with Affinity Peptide-Based Electrochemical Sensor

초록

The lethality of the bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) in cattle involves inapparent infection and various, typically subclinical, syndromes. Cattle of all ages are vulnerable to infection with the virus. It also causes considerable economic losses, primarily due to reduced reproductive performance. In the absence of treatment that can completely cure infected animals, detection of BVDV relies on highly sensitive and selective diagnosis methods. In this study, an electrochemical detection system was developed as a useful and sensitive system for the detection of BVDV to suggest the direction of diagnostic technology through the development of conductive nanoparticle synthesis. As a countermeasure, a more sensitive and rapid BVDV detection system was developed using the synthesis of electro-conductive nanomaterials black phosphorus (BP) and gold nanoparticle (AuNP). To increase the conductivity effect, AuNP was synthesized on the BP surface, and the stability of BP was improved by using dopamine self-polymerization. Moreover, its characterizations, electrical conductivity, selectivity, and sensitivity toward BVDV also have been investigated. The BP@AuNP-peptide-based BVDV electrochemical sensor exhibited a low detection limit of 0.59 copies mL-1 with high selectivity and long-term stability (retaining 95% of its initial performance over 30 days).
