Polystyrene fluorescent microspheres prepared by deposition of CdTe quantum dots (QDs) are used in an immunoassay in this study. CdTe QDs/polyelectrolyte multilayers on the surface of polystyrene microspheres have been formed by layer-by-layer self-assembly via electrostatic interactions. As a model antigen, rabbit IgG has been bound to the outermost layer of the fluorescent microspheres. The immunoreaction between fluorescent microspheres/rabbit IgG and the corresponding antibody was confirmed by change of the fluorescence spectrum and competitive immunoassay. This approach allowed detection of the antigen (rabbit IgG) in the range 1-500 mg/L, based on the change in the fluorescence intensity of the reporter (fluorescent microspheres/rabbit IgG). A novel microfluidic chip device with a laser-induced fluorescence system was established and used for the detection of fluorescent microspheres in this study.
