Abstract

The present invention discloses a fiber optic biosensor using phase tracking to detect the existence and degree of variation of some specific biological (or chemical) material. The biological probe of the sensor uses fiber as the substrate, the tip of the fiber is coated with one or more layers of materials different from that of the fiber and the tested material, which can be the sensing standard of the thin-film reflection interferometer, wherein at least one layer is the compensated material which can absorb the target biological (or chemical) molecules to be tested. When the molecules to be tested are absorbed on the surface or interior of the complementary material, the spectrum distribution of the reflection/interference light will vary. The spectral line shift is for analyzing quantitatively or qualitatively the concentration, adhesion rate and geometrical size of the sample molecules.

Reagent 1 10 is excited by light. Returns a fluorescent signal. In the end, the optical fiber biosensor will have a reagent 1 〇 2, an antibody 1 06, and a reagent 1 10 with a mark at the end, so it is called a sandwich fiber biosensor. For a sandwich optical fiber biosensor, the higher the concentration of antibody 106 in the test sample, the more reagents with fluorescent markers 丨 〖〇 will be combined with it, so the stronger the fluorescent signal returned. As shown in Fig. 1c, the displacement fiber biosensor is composed of an optical fiber and a reagent 120 (such as an antigen) coated on its end. Enzyme-labeled reagents 1 2 4 (antibodies) are sealed in a dialysis-capable membrane 1 3 0. The reagent 1 2 2 (antibody) is complementary to the reagent layer 1 2 0 (antigen).

Therefore, the concentration of 'antibody 1 4 0 is inversely proportional to the intensity of the returned light. The fiber optic biosensor described above has Many shortcomings. As for the sandwich fiber biosensor, the optical fiber 100 must be immersed in the sample solution 104, washed, and then immersed in the solution 108 containing the reagent 110 (with the mark 112). The test needs to go through two different The reaction step is more troublesome. Moreover, it can only be detected when the concentration of the analyte is higher than a certain threshold value.

Description of invention The intensity printed by the Intellectual Property Bureau employee consumer cooperative can be measured to calculate the incident angle 0 of the incident beam 20. As shown in Figure 2b, the intensity of the refracted beam suddenly drops at a special incident "SP At this particular angle, the surface plasmons (Surface Plasma * sp) waves generated by the excitation of the parent interface of the metal and the insulator will co-exist with the energy of the incident light. If a thin film sinks on the thin metal layer 204, The effective refractive index of the insulating material will change, especially near the metal layer. The effective refractive index is related to the thickness and density of the insulating material and the deposited film. Therefore, if the thickness of the precipitated film changes, the refractive index changes and the critical incident angle 0Sp also changes. By measuring the critical incident angle 0SP, the thickness and density of the precipitation film can be deduced. For the fiber-based SPR sensor, the signal detection method is similar to that of the optical SPR sensor. In addition to monochromatic light sources, multicolor light sources with a range of wavelengths can also be used for illumination. Here, the optical coupling efficiency changes with different wavelengths. At a certain wavelength, the intensity of the reflected light reaches a minimum. In addition, the thickness and density of the precipitation film changed, and the wavelength of the light wave at the minimum value of the reflected light intensity changed from one value to another. In this way, the wavelength shift at the minimum value of the reflection intensity can be tracked, and the thickness and density of the Shen Dian film on the surface of the fiber cylinder can be measured.

Although the SPR sensor has many advantages, such as it does not require marking, the measurement can be performed continuously, but it is not sufficient The reason is that when manufacturing the spR sensor, after cutting the surface of the fiber, a thin, high-reflectivity metal layer must be plated on the fiber core, which increases the production cost. In addition, the spR sensor is a relatively large Cylindrical surface, such a large cylindrical surface area requires a larger capacity of reagents and more test samples. At the same time, the structure of this type of sensor is difficult to achieve array parallel testing. In addition, this design can not be used for In vivo detection.

Description of the invention () Immunosensors "Biosensors and Bioelectronics, V. 6, pp.227-232 (1 99 1) This type of inductor is described in Figure 3. As shown in Figure 3, an incident laser beam 3 02 enters one end of a planar wave guide 3 04. The planar waveguide 3 04 includes a very thin layer of high refraction The film 3 06 and the glass substrate 308 on which the film is placed. Part of the surface of the film 3 06 is provided with a grating 310. The surface protruding grating 310 causes the laser 3 to emit a plane wave at an angle of α Where α is the angle between the waveguide normal and the light. The size of α is related to the effective refractive index of the laser guided mode. Surface relief grating 31 (surface relief grating) can be coated with a layer of reagent. Can be filled with liquid Container for sample 3 1 4 3 1 2 Carrying surface The grating element 310 is carved. If the substance in the sample 314 reacts with the reagent layer, the effective refractive index will change, thereby changing the reflection angle α. The lens 3 1 6 focuses the outgoing beam onto a one-dimensional position-sensitive imaging detector (one- dimentional position sensitive Photodetector (or "PSD") 31 8. PSD31_ output is sampled by an analog digital converter (anal〇g_t〇_dlgltal converter) 320, and the result is sent to a personal computer 3 22 for analysis. The change in the angle of the reflected light beam caused by the change in the effective refractive index is related to the thickness of the thin film generated by the reagent and its combined substances. Grating biosensors have many shortcomings. First, the response of the sensor is relatively slow, the so-called "drift effect" (Drifteffect) ,,. If the concentration of the test substance in the test sample is low, it is difficult to judge the increase in effective refractive index caused by the drift effect. Second, the grating biosensor cannot be used for various paper sizes.

Description of the invention () Distance measurement. In addition, because of its large size, it is not suitable for doing In-vivo detection. Such a large size is not conducive to multiple tests on a single sample. Moreover, the sensor is too long and requires a large amount of test samples. Finally, the manufacture of a planar waveguide with a built-in grating is more complicated and expensive, especially When the process is miniaturized. Another type of biosensor is a biosensor based on the principle of microtubule Fabry-Per 〇t interference (microcuvette-based Fabry-Perot interferometer).

The added single-molecule protein layer can be considered to just increase the thickness of the membrane. The spectrograph 6 1 0 is used to determine the spectrum and intensity of reflected light waves at different times. As shown in Fig. 4, when the thickness of the film is increased, the first output of the spectrum camera 61 is A, and the second output is B. The film thickness increase Δ can be determined by Fresnel's theorem (Fresnel, s law). That is, the light intensity I of the interference light reflected by the thin film can be expressed as follows: /-/ J + / 2 + 2 λ! I ll 2 cos () λ 7 where Δ is the optical path difference (effectlve 〇ptlcal path difference), λ is the wavelength of the incident light. Due to the closeness of the intensity of the “worker 2”, the two can be regarded as equal. Let I 1 = I 2 = IR, the above formula can be simplified as: I = 2 Ir (1 + cos (-)) λ Therefore, the effective optical path The difference Δ (and the thickness of the film) can be determined by the intensity of the reflected light and the wavelength of the light wave. Although the advantages of the microtube Fabry_Per ot interferometer discussed above are that no marking is needed, and the detection results are not limited to the final Data, etc. But it still has many disadvantages. First, the size of the microtubules is still large, which requires a larger number of test samples, or requires a high sample concentration. Second, this method has certain difficulties for achieving a large number of parallel tests.

The reagent layer reacts with the job title. The fiber section has a refractive index. As long as the test substance is attached to the reagent layer, a new film layer composed of the test substance is ordered. The new layer can be considered to have two = radiation !: the fiber part can be single-mode or multi-mode fiber, the diameter is at least 3mm, and the clothing can reach 100 microns. The reagent applied to the end can be an antibody, an antigen, a synthetic substance or a natural protein, RNA, a DNA fragment, or a chemical reagent. &Amp; Month can be used to detect the concentration of a substance in a sample solution. The detection method includes a light source that provides a light beam. , Fiber probe detector, fiber coupling mouth, fiber connector and signal processor. The first fiber coupled to the fiber is used to receive incident light, and the root coupled to the second fiber is used to reflect the light. The speculation of the interference beam transmission is that the bottom end of the second optical fiber is used to connect the optical fiber probe. The root of the optical fiber probe is connected to the optical fiber coupler, and the end is coated with a layer of treated test fiber. The incident light produces the interference of the first reflected light and the second reflected light 558635 A7 Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 5. Description of the invention () Pattern. The optical fiber coupler transmits the light from the light source to the optical fiber probe A fiber-optic probe is connected to the detector. The signal processor can be used to determine the phase of the pattern twice and the phase of the interference pattern. It is also necessary to determine the concentration of the substance to be measured. In order to better implement the system, the detector should choose a spectrometer, which is composed of a spectrometer and a one-dimensional CCD element (such as i * i〇24 CCD). To better implement the detection Instrument, the signal processor should include a periodic signal generator, a phase tracker and a personal computer. The periodic signal generator is used to generate two periodic signals, the first periodic signal is the interference pattern first detected by the detector It is obtained that the second periodic signal is obtained from the interference pattern detected by the detector for the second time. The phase follower is used to determine the phase of the first periodic signal and the second periodic signal, and the calculator is used to determine the phase difference, and The concentration of the substance to be measured in the sample solution is calculated from the phase difference. In order to better implement the present invention, the coupler is a “γ,” type coupler, and the light source is a broadband light source or an advanced light-emitting diode. There is another embodiment of the detector. The detector includes a frequency adjuster associated with the disk light source for adjusting the frequency of the light beam provided by the light source. At this time, the signal processor is synchronized with the frequency regulator. " There is also a form in which the detector includes another fiber-optic probe, a multiplexer and an optical multiplexer. The second fiber-optic probe f determines the concentration of the second test substance in the sample solution. The optical multiplexer is used to connect the light source and the two fiber probes, and the light source and the two fiber probes are connected in a time division manner. Multiple optical data distributors are used to connect two fiber optic probes and detectors.

Figures 7a and 7b show The schematic diagram of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the biosensor probe 700 includes an optical fiber 702 and a reagent 704 coated on the end of the optical fiber 702. The reagent 704 may be an antigen such as an immune antigen. It may also be It is a special antibody, chemical substance, DNA fragment, or protein shell. Apply a certain concentration of reagent 704 to the end of optical fiber 702 within a certain time, make sure that the end of optical fiber 2 does form a layer of reagent 704, and then The device is cleaned and packaged. The experienced person can also apply reagent 704 to the end of optical fiber 702 by other methods. Different coating methods can be determined according to different reagents. The incident beam 71 ° is transmitted from the root of the fiber to the end of the fiber. At the interface between the reagent layer 704 and the optical fiber 702, a first reflected light 712 will be reflected back, and at the same time, a portion 714 of the incident light beam 710 will continue to pass through the reagent 704. On the exposed outer surface 708 of the reagent 704 , The second beam The reflected light 716 is reflected back, and another portion 718 of the incident light beam 710 will continue to be directed to the medium adjacent to the reagent layer 704. A portion 760 of the reflected light 716 reflected by a portion 714 of the incident light beam 71 will pass through the optical fiber 702 To the basic paper size, the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) is applicable -------------- ^ i — (Please read the notes on the back to write this page). Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 558635 5. In the Invention Description () Department, the other part of the reflected light 7 1 6 will be reflected back to the reagent layer 7 04 at the interface 7 0 (not shown). As will be discussed in detail below, at the root of the fiber 702, the reflected light 712 and 760 are detected and analyzed. Along any given point of the fiber 70, including its root, the reflected light 7 12 and 760 will have a phase difference. Based on this phase difference, the thickness of the reagent layer 704 can be detected. As shown in Fig. 7b, the probe 700 is immersed in the sample solution 734 to detect the presence of the antibody 73 6 complementary to the antigen 70 4 and the concentration of the antibody 7 3 6 in the sample solution 734. Because the characteristics of the antibody 7 3 6 and the antigen 704 determine that a special reaction will occur between them, the antibody 73 6 will adhere to the reagent layer 704, so that within a certain time, the reagent layer 704 An antibody layer 732 is formed. However, the non-complementary antibody 7 38 does not adhere to the reagent layer 704. For the sample solution 734, it is necessary to reduce the possibility that the probe 700 and (except the antibody) stick to each other. That is, it is necessary to make the reagent 700 on the probe 700 to reduce the possibility of adhesion to the non-complementary antibody 7 38. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs For example, a representative example is that the size of molecules to be detected (such as antigens and antibodies) should be much smaller than the wavelength of incident light of 71 °. Therefore, from an optical point of view, the reagent layer 704 and the antibody layer 732 can be regarded as a single layer. That is, from an optical point of view, the interface 73 0 of the reagent layer 704 and the antibody layer 732 shown in FIG. 7b is usually not obvious. In this way, the combined layer of the reagent layer 704 and the antibody layer 732 shown in Fig. 7 is similar to the reagent layer 704 in Fig. 7a. However, the total thickness s 2 of the two layers is larger than the thickness of the individual reagent layer 704. Therefore, similar to the probe 700 in FIG. 7a, when the incident light 7 10 enters the end of the optical fiber 702, 'on the interface 706 between the optical fiber 702 and the combination layer, a part 712 of the incident light 710 is reflected back. At the same time, the incident light & Zhang scale is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 male * ^) Hcm \ uingiaiig \ o "issued 558635 A7 V. Description of the invention () Another part 710 720 continues to be combined The layer and sample solution 734. A portion 724 of 720 is reflected back, while another portion m of 720 continues through sample solution 734. For the reflected light 724, its-part 726 is returned to the optical fiber 702, while another part (not shown) is reflected by the interface ^ = in the composite layer. At any given point along the fiber 702, including its roots, the reflected beams 7 and 2 and 726 will exhibit a phase difference. Based on this phase difference, the thickness S 2 of the combined layer can be detected. By comparing the thickness S2 of the combined layer and the thickness si of the reagent layer 704, the thickness of the antibody layer 732 can be determined. Based on this thickness, the presence or absence of the complementary body in the sample solution 7 3 4 can be determined. Furthermore, the thickness S2 of the group layer can be sampled at discrete time points. The rate at which the thickness difference between the thickness S 2 of the square layer and the thickness S 1 of the reagent layer 704 increases (for example, the rate of increase in the thickness of the antibody layer 732) can be obtained. Based on this rate, the concentration of the complementary antibody 736 in the sample solution 734 can be measured in a short period of culture. Fig. 8 depicts a first improved method for implementing the biosensor using the above-mentioned bioprobe 700. Repeat again, the bioprobe 700 including the optical fiber 7 and the reagent layer 704 coated on the end of the optical fiber 702 should be immersed in the sample solution 734. As can be seen from the enlarged part in the figure, the optical fiber casing surrounds the optical fiber core until The end of the fiber core. More specifically, the fiber housing is wrapped with the fiber core from beginning to end, the sample solution is contained in the test tube 7 80, and the fiber probe 700 is connected to the biosensor analyzer 800 through the connector 802.

However, if a second type of optical coupler is used, it is necessary to provide an index matching gel, which is used to remove the reflection noise at the open end. The spectrometer 829 coupled to the light source 804 is needed only when the spectrum of the laser diode of the light source 804 is unstable. A special case is to use a spectrometer 8 2 9 to distinguish the phase shift caused by the change in the thickness of the end of the biological slave needle 700 from the phase shift caused by the frequency shift of the light source. However, if the spectrum of the laser diode of the light source $ 0 * is very stable, the light source 804, the optical coupler 808, and the optical waveguide 828 are no longer needed. FIG. 10 is a second embodiment of the biosensor. Includes a supplementary biosensor optical analyzer 1,000. The composition of the system is basically similar to the system shown in Figure 8, except: 〇) the broadband light source 804 is a laser diode driven by the frequency signal generator 1 006; (2) the phase tracker 822 must be connected with the frequency signal generator 1 006 synchronization. The frequency signal generator 1006 produces a ramped frequency (or linear I, chlrp) driving signal. The working process of the system is shown in Figure 8. The paper size applies to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification. ⑽χ 挪 公公.-* --- V. The invention description () is similar. However, the phase tracker 822 must be synchronized with the frequency signal generator I 006. In addition, the optical waveguides 806, 81, 814, Multi-mode optical fibers must also be used for ,, and 82 8 '. Because the bioprobe 700 is relatively small and allows movement, it can be detected instantly, or multiple bioprobes can be used instead of one to check different substances in the same solution. As shown in Figure Η, an optical multiplexer 1102 receives a beam of light (such as a mixed-frequency beam) emitted from a light source (out of daylight) at an input end. Through an input control signal, the optical multiplexer The multiplexer II 02 connects the input signal with the output signal through a single-pole multi-throw switch. The input control signal can be provided by the clock counter 1104. The optical multiplexer 1 1 02 passes a waveguide and connector 丨丨 〇 Connect one or more output signals to one or more bioprobes. Each of the one or more bioprobes 1106 ^ passes through the connector 111〇 and its corresponding optical sub-wave gas. The input of the worker 1108 is connected. The connector 1110 can be similar to the above-mentioned Υ type connection. According to the content of the input control signal, the optical demultiplexer 1108 outputs one of its N inputs to the spectrometer (not shown) Out). Although this example only shows a time division multiplexer device, the frequency division multiplexer is obviously also feasible. In the same way, when the volume of the biomolecule attached to the test end of the fiber changes, by detecting the reflection The phase of the spectral profile generated by the interference can be used to estimate the rate and magnitude of the volume change.

Because the data measurement is communicated through the optical letter 5 tiger, the biosensor system must be electrically insulated from the patient, so that direct in vivo testing can be performed. Since this biosensor = the bioprobe used is trivial compared to the sample solution (that is, it can be ignored), ‘other (non-complementary) adhesion can be minimized.
