Functionalization of microbubbles in a microfluidic chip for biosensing application

Résumé

Microbubbles are widely used for biomedical applications, ranging from imagery to therapy. In these applications, microbub- bles can be functionalized to allow targeted drug delivery or imaging of the human body. However, functionalization of the microbubbles is quite difficult, due to the unstable nature of the gas/liquid interface. In this paper, we describe a simple protocol for rapid functionalization of microbubbles and show how to use them inside a microfluidic chip to develop a novel type of biosensor. The microbubbles are functionalized with biochemical ligand directly at their generation inside the microfluidic chip using a DSPE-PEG-Biotin phospholipid. The microbubbles are then organized inside a chamber before injecting the fluid with the bioanalyte of interest through the static bubbles network. In this proof-of-concept demonstration, we use streptavidin as the bioanalyte of interest. Both functionalization and capture are assessed using fluorescent microscopy thanks to fluorescent labeled chemicals. The main advantages of the proposed technique compared to classical ligand based biosensor using solid surface is its ability to rapidly regenerate the functionalized surface, with the complete functionalization/capture/measurement cycle taking less than 10 min.
