Description

PRODUCT, METHOD AND SMARTPHONE IMAGING ANALYSIS SYSTEM FOR
MERCURY ION DETECTION
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application claims the priority of Chinese Patent Application No.
201810688361.8, filed on June 28, 2018, and titled with "PRODUCT, METHOD AND SMARTPHONE
IMAGING ANALYSIS SYSTEM FOR MERCURY ION DETECTION", and the disclosures of which are hereby incorporated by reference.
FIELD
[0002] The present disclosure relates to the field of biological detection technology, specifically to a product, a method and a smartphone imaging analysis system for mercury ion detection.
BACKGROUND
[0003] Water-soluble divalent mercury ion is a relatively common heavy metal risk factor in food safety and drinking water safety. Mercury ion has strong bioaccumulation and is harmful to the human body, and would damage the nervous system, digestive system, brain tissue and kidney tissue even at very low concentrations. Many countries and organizations have adjusted the maximum allowable upper limit for mercury ions in drinking water samples. For example, the World Health Organization (WHO) specifies that the maximum allowable limit for mercury ions in drinking water is not more than 6 ng mL-1 (30 nM), the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) specifies that the acceptable limit for mercury ions in drinking water is 2 ng mL-1 (10 nM), and both the European Union (EU) Drinking Water Standard and the Chinese Ministry of Health stipulate that the maximum allowable limit for mercury ions is not more than 1 ng mL-I (5 nM).
Therefore, the detection of trace amount of mercury ions is a common concern worldwide. At present, establishing a sensor for detecting mercury ion based on the "nucleic acid base mismatch"
recognition system is a mainstream research trend, which means that two thymine bases of DNA
can mismatch with a mercury ion to form a stable "T-Hg(II) -T" structure.
However, most of these sensors face the dilemma of a complex system and being difficult to detect quantitatively.

13560853.1 DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0025] The experimental methods used in the following examples are conventional methods unless otherwise specified.
[0026] The molecular biology experimental methods without specific description in the following examples are all carried out according to the specific methods listed in the book "Molecular Cloning Experiment Guide" (the 3rd edition) by J. Sambrook, or according to the specifications of kit and product.
[0027] The materials, reagents and the like used in the following examples are commercially available unless otherwise specified.
[0028] The following examples and specific descriptions are to be construed as illustrative and not restrictive.
Example 1 Preparation of side flow tomography sensor based on nucleic acid base mismatch [0029] (I) Design of nucleotide sequence for detection [0030] Sequence 1 (nucleotide sequence on the gold nanoparticles ): 5' -ThioMC6 -GGTGGTGGTGGTGG-3' [0031] Sequence 2 (nucleotide sequence on the test line): 5 ' -Biotin-CCCCCCCTCCTCCTCCTCC-3' [0032] Sequence 3 (nucleotide sequence on the quality control line): 5'-Biotin-CCCCCCCACCACCACCACC-3' [0033] All the nucleotide sequences in the above design were obtained by artificial synthesis.
Therein, the sequence I was obtained by modifying the 5' end of the nucleotide sequence shown by SEQ ID N2: 1 in the Sequence Listing with ThioMC6 mercapto group; the sequence 2 was obtained by labelling the 5' end of the nucleotide sequence shown by SEQ ID
.N2: 2 in the Sequence Listing with biotin; and the sequence 3 was obtained by labelling the 5' end of the nucleotide sequence shown by SEQ ID N2: 3 in the Sequence Listing with biotin.
[0034] (II) Preparation of side flow tomography sensor based on nucleic acid base mismatch 13560853.1 [0035] 1. The nucleic acid sequence enriched in thymine base named sequence 2 in the above design was fixed on the test line (T line) of the NC membrane. The specifically fixing process referred to the document Nan Cheng, Yuancong Xu, Kunlun Huang, Yuting Chen, Zhanshen Yang, Yunbo Luo, Wentao Xu. One-step competitive lateral flow biosensor running on an independent quantification system for smart phones based in-situ detection of trace Hg(II) in water. Food Chemistry, 2017, 214: 169-175.
[0036] 2. The nucleic acid sequence enriched in thymine base named sequence 1 in the above design was coupled with gold nanoparticle; both the preparation of gold nanoparticles and the coupling process can refer to the document in the above step 1.
[0037] 3. The nucleic acid sequence coupled with gold nanoparticles was fixed on the bonding pad; the specific fixing process can refer to the document in the above step 1.
[0038] 4. The nucleic acid sequence enriched in adenine base named sequence 3 in the above design was fixed on the quality control line (C line) of the NC membrane; the specific fixing process also can refer to the document in the above step 1.
[0039] 5. The prepared NC membrane and the bonding pad were made into a side flow tomography sensor by a conventional method. Specifically, as shown in Figure 1, the prepared NC membrane was fixed in the middle of the plastic pad 1; the prepared bonding pad was covered on one end of the NC membrane 2, so that the bonding pad 3 partially overlapped the NC
membrane 2; the absorbent pad (paper) 4 was covered on the other end of the NC
membrane 2, so that the NC membrane 2 partially overlapped the absorbent pad (paper) 4; the sample pad 5 was covered on the end of the bonding pad 3 away from the NC membrane 2, so that the bonding pad 3 partially overlapped the sample pad 5; and finally the protective membrane was covered, to prepare a side flow tomography sensor.
[0040] The material of the NC membrane 2, bonding pad 3, sample pad 4 and absorbent pad (paper) 4 were respectively nitrocellulose membrane, glass fiber membrane, glass fiber membrane and absorbent paper.
[0041] (III) Detection principles and process of side flow tomography sensor based on nucleic acid base mismatch 13560853.1 [0042] The detection principle of side flow tomography sensor based on nucleic acid base mismatch was based on a sandwich structure (nucleic acid sequence enriched in thymine base-mercury ion-nucleic acid sequence enriched in thymine base). As shown in Figure 1, a section of nucleic acid sequence enriched in thymine base was fixed on the test line. Another section of nucleic acid sequence enriched in thymine base was coupled with gold nanoparticle, and fixed on the bonding pad. A section of nucleic acid sequence enriched in adenine base was fixed on the quality control line. In a standard detection, a sample containing a certain concentration of mercury ions was firstly dropped onto the sample pad, and the solution moved upwards to the bonding pad along the direction of the tomography sensor due to capillary force (i.e., the suction of the absorbent pad or paper). The solution, together with the complex of the nucleic acid sequence enriched in thymine base coupled with the gold nanoparticle on the bonding pad, continuously moved upward to the test line along the direction of the tomography sensor. On the test line, the mercury ions of a certain concentration in the sample combined with the two sections of nucleic acid sequence enriched in thymine base, to form a "T-Hg(II)-T"
structure, making the gold nanoparticle captured and accumulated on the test line. A naked eye recognizable red line showed on the test line. The larger the concentration of the mercury ions in the sample was, the darker the red was. The excessive amount of the complex of the nucleic acid sequence enriched in thymine base coupled with the gold nanoparticle continuously moved upward to the quality control line. Through the complementary pairing of thymine and adenine bases, the gold nanoparticles were captured and accumulated on the quality control line, and a naked eye recognizable red line showed on the quality control line. If the sample did not contain a certain concentration of mercury ions, the "T-Hg(II)-T" structure cannot be formed on the detection line, and there was no accumulation of gold nanoparticles, and thus there was no naked eye recognizable red line.
Example 2 Specificity test of side flow tomography sensor based on nucleic acid base mismatch [0043] The side flow tomography sensor based on nucleic acid base mismatch prepared in Example 1 was used to detect the solutions of different metal ions, to test the specificity of the sensor, wherein the concentration of Hg(II) was 1 M, and the concentrations of other metal ions 13560853.1 were 1Mm.
[0044] The sample to be detected was dropped on the sample pad. About 5min later, the side flow tomography sensor displayed the detection results. The results of the specificity test was shown in Figure 2, in which the side flow tomography sensor based on nucleic acid base mismatch had signal response only to mercury ions, indicating that the method had a good specificity.
Example 3 Quantitative detection of the side flow tomography sensor realized through a smartphone imaging analysis system [0045] When carrying out the detection of mercury ions with the side flow tomography sensor according to the present disclosure, i.e., the Example 1, a red line displayed on the test line and/or quality control line. Therefore, by using an image containing red lines, by establishing a standard curve corresponding to the concentrations of mercury ions in the mobile phone, it was possible to utilize the captured image containing the red line (or the image stored in advance in the mobile phone or downloaded via a mobile phone) to quantitatively detect the concentrations of mercury ions.
[0046] (I) Establishment of the standard curve [0047] A series of mercury standard solutions of known concentration diluted in multiples were prepared. The mercury ion concentrations in different mercury standard solutions were respectively 0, 1nM, lOnM, 100nM, 11.1M, 10 M, 10011M, 1mM, 10mM andlOOmM.
[0048] The prepared mercury standard solutions of different concentrations were respectively dropped on 10 sample pads of side flow tomography sensors based on nucleic acid base mismatch prepared in Example 1, and about 5min later, the side flow tomography sensor displayed the detection results.
[0049] By taking a picture of the respective detection results displayed on the side flow tomography sensor with a mobile phone camera, an image showing a red line on the quality control line and/or the actual measurement line as shown in HG. 3 might be obtained. The picture might also be a picture stored in advance in the mobile phone or downloaded via a mobile phone.
[0050] Thereafter, taking the longitudinal extension direction of the side flow tomography 13560853.1 sensor as an abscissa, and the mean gray scale value of the column corresponding to each abscissa as an ordinate, the curve as shown in Figure 4 (i.e., the optical density distribution curve) was obtained.
[0051] Selecting the curve, in which position the test line was, the peak area of the curve in this position was calculated (i.e., the curve was integrated), to obtain the peak area value corresponding to the mercury ions of a certain concentration.
[0052] In the above manner, the optical density distribution curve as shown in Figure 6 was obtained according to the photo shown in Figure 5. According to the obtained curve, the peak area values corresponding to mercury ions of different concentrations were calculated (for example, 0, 1nM, 1 OnM, 100nM, 111M, 10 M, 10011M, 1mM, 10mM and 100mM). As shown in Figure 7, a curve of the concentration of mercury ions in a known mercury standard solution was made using the obtained peak area. Finally, the standard curve shown in Figure 8, S=693.711gC-1360.4, R2=0.9868, was obtained by Excel artificial fitting calculation, wherein 1gC
was the logarithm value of the mercury ion concentration of the analyte, and S
was the peak area.
[0053] (II) Establishment of the smartphone imaging analysis system [0054] The standard curve S=693.711gC-1360.4 (R2=0.9868) obtained by fitting calculation was built in the smartphone imaging analysis system.
[0055] The sample to be detected was dropped on the sample pad, and about 5min later, the side flow tomography sensor displayed the detection results. By taking a picture of the detection results with a mobile phone camera, the detected image was obtained. The photographed result can be stored in the mobile phone, or be directly used.
[0056] The method for calculating the gray scale intensity value and the peak area S the formed in the detection image comprised:
