Boronate crosslinking-based ratiometric electrochemical assay of glycated albumin

As a product of nonenzymatic glycation, glycated albumin (GA) is a promising serum marker for the short-term glycemic monitoring in patients with diabetes. On the basis of the boronate crosslinking (BCL)-enabled direct labeling of ferrocene (Fc) tags to the nonenzymatically glycated (NEG) sites, we report herein a novel aptamer-based ratiometric electrochemical (apt-REC) platform for the point-of-care (POC) assay of GA. This apt-REC platform is based on the recognition of GA proteins by the methylene blue (MB)-modified aptamer receptors and the labeling of the Fc tags to the NEG sites via the BCL. Using MB as the reference tag and Fc as the quantification tag, the ratio of the oxidation currents (i.e., IFc/IMB) can serve as the yardstick for the ratiometric assay of GA. Due to the presence of tens of the NEG sites, each GA protein can be labeled with tens of quantification tags, permitting the amplified assay in a simple, time-saving, and low-cost manner. The ratiometric signal exhibited a good linear response over the range from 0.1 to 100 μg/mL, with a detection limit of 45.5 ng/mL. In addition to the superior reproducibility and robustness, this apt-REC platform is highly selective (capable of discriminating GA against human serum albumin (HSA)) and applicable to GA assay in serum samples. Due to its low cost, high reproducibility and robustness, simple operation, and high sensitivity and selectivity, this apt-REC platform holds great promise in the POC assay of GA for diabetes management.
