Flu infection, caused by the influenza virus, constitutes a serious threat to human lives worldwide. A rapid, sensitive and specific diagnosis is urgently needed for point-of-care treatment and to control the rapid spread of this disease. In this study, an ultrasensitive, rapid and specific localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR)induced immunofluorescence nanobiosensor has been developed for the influenza virus based on a gold nanoparticle (AuNP)-induced quantum dot (QD) fluorescence signal. Alloyed quaternary CdSeTeS QDs were synthesized via the hot-injection organometallic route and were subsequently capped with L-cysteine via a ligand exchange reaction. AuNPs were synthesized in HEPES buffer and thiolated with L-cysteine. The concept of the biosensor involves the conjugation of anti-neuraminidase (NA) antibody (anti-NA Ab) to thiolated AuNPs and the conjugation of anti-hemagglutinin (HA) antibody (anti-HA Ab) to alloyed quaternary L-cysteine-capped CdSeTeS QDs. Interaction of the antigens displaying on the surface of the influenza virus target with anti-NA Ab-conjugated AuNPs and anti-HA Ab-conjugated QDs induces an LSPR signal from adjacent AuNPs to trigger fluorescence-enhancement changes in the QDs in proportion to the concentration of the target virus. The detection limit for influenza H1N1 virus was 0.03 pg/mL in deionized water and 0.4 pg/mL in human serum; while, for the clinically isolated H3N2, the detection limit was 10 PFU/mL. The detection of influenza virus H1N1 was accomplished with high sensitivity. The versatility of the biosensor was demonstrated for the detection of clinically isolated influenza virus H3N2 and norovirus-like particles (NoV-LPs).
