Research on carbohydrate based interactions with proteins, nucleic acids or antibodies has gained increased interest in the last years especially in clinical diagnosis or drug development. The efficiency of diagnostic interfaces depends upon the number of probe molecules, e.g. carbohydrates. The control of surface parameters as density and distribution of immobilized carbohydrates is essential for a reliable interaction with protein analytes. A controlled production of biomolecular interfaces can be reached by a stepwise quality control during buildup of these biointerfaces.
Here, ß-amino-cyclodextrin molecules were attached to amine-reactive silicon oxide surfaces via click chemistry to construct a model biosensor surface. The amount of surface bound carbohydrates was determined indirectly after chemical derivatization with 4-(trifluoromethyl)-benzylamine (TFMBA). Moreover, these surfaces were used to form host-guest complexes of ferrocene (guest) and β-cyclodextrin (host) moieties to mimic the target binding (sensing) of the model biosensor. Surface chemical analysis of all steps during biosensor construction was performed using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (NEXAFS). Our approach widens the possibilities to generate switchable surfaces based on ß-Cyclodextrin surfaces for biosensor applications.
The growing interest in artificial bioorganic Interfaces as a platform for applications in emerging Areas as personalized medicine, clinical diagnostics, biosensing, biofilms, prevention of biofouling, and other fields of bioengineering is the origin of a need for in Detail multitechnique characterizations of such layers and interfaces. The in-depth analysis of biointerfaces is of special interest as the properties of functional bioorganic coatings can be dramatically affected by in-depth variations of composition.
In worst cases, the functionality of a device produced using such coatings can be substantially reduced or even fully lost.
