A strategy for accurate detection of glucose in human serum and whole blood based on an upconversion nanoparticles-polydopamine nanosystem

The accurate detection of blood glucose is of critical importance in the diagnosis and management of diabetes and its complications. Herein, we report a novel strategy based on an upconversion nanoparticles-polydopamine (UCNPs-PDA) nanosystem for the accurate detection of glucose in human serum and whole blood through a simple blending of test samples with ligand-free UCNPs, dopamine, and glucose oxidase (GOx). Owing to the high affinity of lanthanide ions exposed on the surface of ligand-free UCNPs, dopamine monomers could spontaneously attach to the UCNPs and further polymerize to form a PDA shell, resulting in a remarkable upconversion luminescence (UCL) quenching (97.4%) of UCNPs under 980-nm excitation. Such UCL quenching can be effectively inhibited by H2O2 produced from the GOx/glucose enzymatic reaction, thus enabling the detection of H2O2 or glucose based on the UCL quenching/inhibition bioassay. Owing to the highly sensitive UCL response and background-free interference of the UCNPs-PDA nanosystem, we achieved a sensitive, selective, and high-throughput bioassay for glucose in human serum and whole blood, thereby revealing the great potential of the UCNPs-PDA nanosystem for the accurate detection of blood glucose or other H2O2-generated biomolecules in clinical bioassays.
