• Amperometric immunosensor
• BSA-coated Prussian blue nanoparticles
• alpha-1-Fetoprotein

In the present work, a newly functional nanoparticle has been prepared to immobilize the protein for the detection of alpha-1-fetoprotein (AFP). Prussian blue (PB) nanoparticle was initially synthesized under ultrasonic condition, then bovine serum albumin (BSA) was used to coat the PB nanoparticle to improve the stability of the PB nanoparticle as well as functionalize the surface of PB nanoparticle, and then gold colloids were loaded on the BSA-coated PB nanoparticle to construct a core-shell-shell nanostructure via the con junction of thiolate linkages or alkylamines of the BSA. Finally, a convenient, effective and sensitivity amperometric immunosensor for the detection of alpha-1-fetoprotein (AFP) was constructed by the employment of these functional core-shell-shell microspheres. The preparation of the nanoparticle (Au-BSA-PB NPs) was characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and the assembly of the biosensor was characterized with cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The dynamic range of the resulted immunosensor for the detection of AFP is from 0.02 ng/mL to 200.0 ng/mL with a detection limit of 0.006 ng/mL (S/N = 3). Moreover, this biosensor displays good selectivity, stability and reproducibility.
