Rapid diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction through integrated microfluidic chips for detection of characteristic targets

Anal Biochem. 2024 Mar 5:115502. doi: 10.1016/j.ab.2024.115502. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMyoglobin (Myo), creatine kinase-MB (CKMB), and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) are crucial biomarkers for diagnosing acute myocardial infarction (AMI) The accurate and rapid detection of these three targets can greatly improve the prognosis of AMI patients. Herein, this study developed a microfluidic immunofluorescence method that can detect all three targets in 10-15 minutes. Ultrasonic atomization and spray technology are used to modify the surface of the injection-molded microfluidic chip (MFC), which effectively solves the problem of biological cross-linking and antibody immobilization on the MFC surface. In addition, it improves the hydrophilicity of the chip surface, thus enhancing fluid self-driving effect. The linear response towards Myo, CKMB and cTnI range from 5 ng/mL to 500 ng/mL, 1 ng/mL to 70 ng/mL, and 0.05 ng/mL to 30 ng/mL, respectively. The intra-batch precision is ≤ 10%, and the inter-batch precision is ≤ 15%. Furthermore, this method shows good consistency compared with the BECKMAN ACCESS2 chemiluminescent immunoanalyzer. The present work provides an AMI diagnostic method with high sensitivity, good repeatability, high accuracy and simple operation, which can satisfy the needs of clinical diagnosis, and shows promising application prospects.PMID:38453047 | DOI:10.1016/j.ab.2024.115502
