化學熱力學(Chemical Thermodynamics)係研究化學反應之平衡性質,其主要關注於化學反應之初始狀態及最終狀態。而化學動力學(Chemical Kinetics)則係研究化學反應過程中之反應速率。化學動力學經常被應用於生物分子結合能力之相關探討。而親合常數Kf、結合速率常數ka以及分解速率常數kd係化學動力學中重要之參數。對於生物分子之化學動力學而言,結合速率常數代表了分子複合物形成之速率,分解速率常數則代表分子複合物之穩定性。 Chemical Thermodynamics is a study of the equilibrium nature of chemical reactions, with a primary focus on the initial and final state of the chemical reaction. Chemical Kinetics studies the rate of reaction during chemical reactions. Chemical kinetics are often applied to the discussion of biomolecular binding capabilities. The affinity constant K f , the binding rate constant k a and the decomposition rate constant k d are important parameters in chemical kinetics. For the chemical kinetics of biomolecules, the binding rate constant represents the rate at which the molecular complex is formed, and the decomposition rate constant represents the stability of the molecular complex.

請再參閱第9圖所示,其係繪示待檢測溶液與檢測層進行結合反應之示意圖。需特別說明,當待檢測溶液中之待檢測物7與檢測層135結合時,奈米粒子層134便因該結合反應而發生粒子電漿共振現象,此粒子電漿共振現象進一步使得光訊號強度值產生變化。據此,只要量測光訊號強度值之變化,便可進行動力學常數之推估。 Please refer to FIG. 9 again, which is a schematic diagram showing the binding reaction between the solution to be detected and the detection layer. It should be specially noted that when the analyte 7 to be detected in the solution to be detected is combined with the detection layer 135, the nanoparticle layer 134 undergoes a particle plasma resonance phenomenon due to the binding reaction, and the particle plasma resonance phenomenon further causes the optical signal intensity. The value changes. Accordingly, as long as the change in the intensity value of the optical signal is measured, the kinetic constant can be estimated.

需再特別說明,奈米粒子層134受光線激發時會產生特性消光光譜(extinction spectrum),此特性譜帶稱為粒子電漿共振(particle plasmon resonance,PPR)譜帶。而粒子電漿共振感測系統之基本感測原理為:當奈米粒子層134感受 到環境折射率改變時,此粒子電漿共振譜帶之峰值波長與消光截面積(extinction cross-section)也會隨之產生變化。而在波導現象中,每一次之反射介面處,特定頻率之光線都會與奈米粒子層134之PPR現象產生作用。因此當反射次數越多次時,入射光經多次全內反射,使得光纖之出光訊號減弱。綜合而言,藉由全內反射現象能累積PPR訊號之變化量,因此也就能達到感測靈敏度提升之目的。 It should be further noted that the nanoparticle layer 134 is excited by light to produce a characteristic extinction spectrum, which is called a particle plasmon resonance (PPR) band. The basic sensing principle of the particle plasma resonance sensing system is: when the nano particle layer 134 feels When the refractive index of the environment changes, the peak wavelength and the extinction cross-section of the particle plasma resonance band will also change. In the waveguide phenomenon, at a specific reflection interface, light of a specific frequency acts on the PPR phenomenon of the nanoparticle layer 134. Therefore, when the number of reflections is more than one time, the incident light is totally totally internally reflected, so that the light-emitting signal of the optical fiber is weakened. In general, the total internal reflection phenomenon can accumulate the amount of change in the PPR signal, so that the sensitivity of the sensing can be improved.

需又特別說明,第一及第二待檢測溶液分別注滿第一管體後停止溶液注入,呈現靜置狀態;待檢測溶液注滿第一管體之時間,必需遠小於位於第一管體周圍角落之待檢測溶質經擴散作用,與檢測層上之探針分子結合之時間。使用之注入時間參考以下準則:注射時間需小於接受光強度I,達到[(It-Ieq)/(I0-Ieq)]分式值為0.4時之時間之二分之一,其中I0與Ieq分別為參考溶液光強度訊號與動態平衡時之光強度訊號。但待檢測溶液注入第一管體時間內,即在非靜置狀態下,所接受之光強度訊號,以及[(It-Ieq)/(I0-Ieq)]比值已大於0.4區域的光度訊號不予採用。在準一級反應速率方程式(pseudo-first order reaction rate equation)假設下,複合體濃度隨時間的變化,為待檢測溶質與偵測層探針結合速率,減去複合體分解速率。當複合體濃度與光度信號強度成正比時,我們推導出[(It-Ieq)/(I0-Ieq)]的對數值與時間呈線性關係。在前述第6A圖中,由第一段落B1及第二段落B2選取使用之最後一個訊號值,代入[(It-Ieq)/(I0-Ieq)]分式計算的比值為0.1,小於前述參考值0.4。 It should be specially stated that the first and second to-be-tested solutions are respectively filled with the first tube body and then the solution is stopped, and the solution is in a static state; the time for the solution to be detected to fill the first tube body is much smaller than that of the first tube body. The time at which the solute to be detected in the surrounding corner is diffused and combined with the probe molecules on the detection layer. The injection time used refers to the following criteria: the injection time is less than the acceptance light intensity I, which is one-half of the time when the [(I t -I eq )/(I 0 -I eq )] fractional value is 0.4, where I 0 and I eq are the light intensity signals of the reference solution light intensity signal and the dynamic balance, respectively. However, when the solution to be tested is injected into the first tube body, that is, in the non-resting state, the received light intensity signal, and the ratio of [(I t -I eq )/(I 0 -I eq )] is greater than 0.4 region. The luminosity signal is not used. Under the assumption of the pseudo-first order reaction rate equation, the concentration of the complex changes with time, which is the rate of binding of the solute to the detection layer to be detected, minus the decomposition rate of the complex. When the concentration of the complex is proportional to the intensity of the photometric signal, we derive a linear relationship between the logarithm of [(I t -I eq )/(I 0 -I eq )] and time. In the foregoing FIG. 6A, the last signal value used is selected by the first paragraph B1 and the second paragraph B2, and the ratio calculated by substituting [(I t -I eq ) / (I 0 -I eq )] is 0.1. Less than the aforementioned reference value of 0.4.

綜上所述,本發明之運用光纖式粒子電漿共振感測器之動力學常數估算方法至少具有下述之優點:本發明之運用光纖式粒子電漿共振感測器之動力學常數估算方法以N個待檢測溶液,得到N個濃度的光訊號強度(對時間)曲線,回歸後得到 相對應的N個斜率,然後這N個斜率值對N個濃度值作回歸,最終獲得ka值與kd值,其中N值為大於或等於二。 In summary, the method for estimating the dynamic constant of the fiber-optic particle plasma resonance sensor of the present invention has at least the following advantages: the method for estimating the dynamic constant of the fiber-optic particle plasma resonance sensor of the present invention N light intensity (on time) curves are obtained with N solutions to be detected, and the corresponding N slopes are obtained after regression, and then the N slope values are returned to N concentration values, and finally k a value is obtained. And k d values, where the N value is greater than or equal to two.

據此,本發明無需採用螢光機制加以標記待檢測分析物,不會影響待檢測分析物本身之特性。此外,本發明係迅速注入待檢測溶液後於靜置狀態下量測光訊號強度隨時間之變化。不同於現有連續流動型式之電漿共振感測器(例如Biacore系統),在量測結合速率常數ka與分解速率常數kd時,其上限不會受制於注入流率。 Accordingly, the present invention does not require the use of a fluorescent mechanism to label the analyte to be detected, and does not affect the characteristics of the analyte to be detected. In addition, the present invention rapidly measures the change of the intensity of the optical signal with time after being injected into the solution to be detected. Unlike existing continuous flow type plasma resonance sensors (such as the Biacore system), the upper limit of the combined rate constant k a and the decomposition rate constant k d is not subject to the injection flow rate.

以上所述僅為舉例性,而非為限制性者。任何未脫離本發明之精神與範疇,而對其進行之等效修改或變更,均應包含於後附之申請專利範圍中。 The above is intended to be illustrative only and not limiting. Any equivalent modifications or alterations to the spirit and scope of the invention are intended to be included in the scope of the appended claims.
