Abstract
We have proposed and experimentally demonstrated a plasmonic tilted fiber Bragg grating (TFBG) biosensor for labelfree detection of small biomolecule S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine (AdoHcy) in different concentrations. The biosensor is designed as a reflective probe type with a 50-nm-thick gold film coating over the fiber surface of an 18° TFBG, together with a surface functionalization with protein lysine methyltransferase Set7 working as bio-detector. The sensor is fabricated without any destruction of fiber structural integrity, thereby ensuring the stability and reproducibility. The experimental results demonstrated that our biosensor can detect biomolecule AdoHcy with concentration as low as 1 nM. We have also measured AdoHcy in different concentrations, including 0.01, 0.1 and 10 nM, and the results indicated that as the AdoHcy concentration increases, the association ratio between AdoHcy and Set7 arises correspondingly, agreeing with the theory.
