The facile surface chemical modification of a single glass nanopore and its use in the nonenzymatic detection of uric acid

Abstract: A conical glass nanopore was first modified with ultrathin gold nanofilm via a simple and innovative chemical reduction of HAuCl4 on a surface-attached poly(L-histidine) monolayer in the presence of a mild reductant, NH2OH·HCl, followed by surface functionalization with 2-thiouracil, and exploited for the selective nonenzymatic detection of uric acid and especially for serum sample detection.

“…Apart from gold deposition, SAM preparation does not require specialized equipment, the monolayers can form over large surfaces and they can provide surface groups that repel molecules, interact with, or covalently link to molecules of interest. 288,292 In the context of nanopore sensing, SAMs are predominantly used for sensing specific analytes, 193,201,203,204 minimizing non-specific interactions, 188,197,200,202,208 manipulating surface charge, 192,194,[196][197][198] and adding functionality such as gating of the pore, 192,205,206 preferential transport, 194,[196][197][198][199] or enhancing the signal of plasmonic nanopores. 207,209 Charles R. Martin's group was among the first to take advantage of SAMs in nanopores by chemisorbing thiols to gold surfaces deposited onto track etched nanotubes.…”

“…In another example of engineering specific interactions on the pore surface, He et al formed a gold film on glass nanopores with ∼30 nm diameters and decorated the film by selfassembly of 2-thiouracil (2-TU). 193 Hydrogen bonding between the amide moieties of uric acid and the 2-TU surface molecules allowed for the specific detection of uric acid, a biomarker used in the diagnosis of diseases like gout, arthritis and renal disease. 293 As the authors increased the concentration of uric acid in the recording buffer, the ionic current increased to a stable value, indicating the binding of uric acid to the SAM coating.…”
