چکیده

An operationally simple colorimetric way for measuring hyaluronidase activity was developed using cysteamine-bound gold nanoparticles. The addition of gold nanoparticles into hyaluronidase-containing solutions resulted in color changes, which could easily be observed with the naked eye or a UV/Vis spectrophotometer.

Direct detection of hyaluronidase in urine using cationic gold nanoparticles: a potential diagnostic test for bladder cancer.

Hyaluronidase (HAase) was reported as a urinary marker of bladder cancer. In this study, a simple colorimetric gold nanoparticle (AuNP) assay was developed for rapid and sensitive detection of urinary HAase activity. Charge interaction between polyanionic hyaluronic acid (HA) and cationic AuNPs stabilized with cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) led to formation of gold aggregates and a red...

Highly Sensitive Colorimetric Detection of Ochratoxin A by a Label-Free Aptamer and Gold Nanoparticles

A label-free aptamer-based assay for the highly sensitive and specific detection of Ochratoxin A (OTA) was developed using a cationic polymer and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The OTA aptamer was used as a recognition element for the colorimetric detection of OTA based on the aggregation of AuNPs by the cationic polymer. By spectroscopic quantitative analysis, the colorimetric assay could detect ...

Metallic nanoparticles bioassay for Enterobacter cloacae P99 beta-lactamase activity and inhibitor screening.

This article presents a simple colorimetric assay for Enterobacter cloacae P99 beta-lactamase activity detection and its inhibitors screening on the basis of silver and gold nanoparticles aggregation. In the presence of E. cloacae P99 beta-lactamase, the beta-lactam ring in the cephalosporin substrate was opened and resulted in releasing the active sites-modified linker which induced significan...
