Abstract
Numerous medical conditions require extensive monitoring of diverse biomarkers, imposing a significant time and effort burden on healthcare professionals. This underscores the need for fast, reliable, and personalized point-of-care diagnostic tools. In the context of organ transplantation, the physiological status of a brain deceased organ donor requires comprehensive surveillance, accompanied by appropriate medical interventions to mitigate organ degradation. An effective strategy for monitoring this degradation involves tracking the progression and, ideally, the onset of the inflammatory response, the so-called ”cytokine storm”, by monitoring specific biomarkers: micro-RNAs. We propose two approaches based on a surface plasmon resonance imaging biosensor that combine various methodologies to amplify the hybridization signal of an oligonucleotide duplex (sandwich assay or bimaterial nanostructured biochip). In a proof-of-concept experiment involving a protein oligonucleotide complex in a sandwich assay, we successfully demonstrate signal amplification by one order of magnitude. Additionally, using the contribution of localized surface plasmons induced by nanostructuring the biochip, our simulations predict a further significant gain in amplification.
