Surface-functionalized PAN fiber membranes for the sensitive detection of airborne specific markers
Original language description
PAN fibers are characterized by having a large surface-to-volume ratio and small pores, which are beneficial for applications in filtration and specific molecular detection systems. Naturally, larger items are filtered, and a lower ratio between specific and nonspecific binding is expected since small pores do not allow larger elements to penetrate through membranes; thus, nonspecific binding is enhanced. We prepared and tested fiber membranes (diameter cca 700 nm) functionalized with a specific antibody to prove that even microscopic systems such as bacteria could be specifically identified. In addition, we established a methodology that enabled the effective binding of bacteria in not only an aqueous environment but also air. Our data clearly prove that even large systems such as bacteria could be specifically identified by fiber membranes surface-functionalized with a specific antibody. This research opens the door to the construction of biosensors for the fast, inexpensive, and sensitive identification of airborne bacterial contaminants and other airborne pollutants.
