Synthesis, Characterizations and Implementation of Functional Nanostructured Materials and Composites for Point-Of-Care Testing Devices
- Abstract
- The emerging field of nanotechnology owes the capability to develop highly functional and novel nanostructured materials (NSMs), which have been addressing challenging applications due to its abundant strategic properties. NSMs have gained notability in diverse fields from the last two decades due to their tunable and unique physical, chemical, and biological properties. In the field of biosensors, NSMs have been providing the desirable properties by virtue of their significance in detection and analysis methods. This research work focuses on the synthesis, bioconjugation, functionalization, and characterization of NSMs and the development of high-performance biosensor devices targeting point-of-care-devices for the detection of analytes (Uric acid, Lactate, Vaspin, and Reactive oxygen species). In this thesis, we are focusing on the synthesis of Zero dimensional (OD) nanoparticles such as ZnO Quantum dots (ZnO QDs), Platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) and upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) conjugation, one-dimensional (1D), nanotubes (multiwalled carbon-based) and two-dimensional (2D), multiwalled carbon nanotubes/poly (3,4-ethylene-dioxythiophene) poly(styrene sulfonate) (MWCNTs/PEDOT:PSS) composite. Moreover, biofunctionalization of UCNPs and bioconjugation with aptamers has been carried out. The characterization of the developed nanomaterials has been carried out using HR-TEM, FE-SEM, AFM, XRD, Raman, FTIR, EDX, and UV/VIS spectroscopy. These tailored nanostructured materials are implemented in the fabrication of electrochemical and optical-based biosensor devices for the detection of the requisite metabolites/biomarkers. These nanostructured materials have provided a steady platform for the immobilization of bioreceptors with biocompatibility, electrocatalytic properties along with high sensitivity, an improved range of detection (ROD), and detection limit (LOD). In brief, the implementation of NSMs has shown excellent performance in biosensing.
