Abstract

In this study, we report a new three-dimensional (3D), bead-based microfluidic chip developed for rapid, sensitive and specific detection of influenza hemagglutinin. The principle of microfluidic chip is based on implementation of two-step procedure that includes isolation based on paramagnetic beads and electrochemical detection. As a platform for isolation process, streptavidin-modified MPs, which were conjugated via biotinylated glycan (through streptavidin-biotin affinity) followed by linkage of hemagglutinin to glycan, were used. Vaccine hemagglutinin (HA vaxi) was labeled with CdS quantum dots (QDs) at first. Detection of the isolation product by voltammetry was the end point of the procedure. The suggested and developed method can be used also for detection of other specific substances that are important for control, diagnosis or therapy of infectious diseases.
