Abstract
Titanium nitride (TiN), as an excellent alternative plasmonic supporting material compared to gold and silver, exhibits tunable plasmonic properties in the visible and near‐infrared spectra. However, label‐free surface plasmon resonance biosensing with TiN is seldom reported due to lack of proper surface functionalization protocols. Herein, this study reports biotinylated antibody functionalized TiN (BAF‐TiN) for high‐performance label‐free biosensing applications. The BAF‐TiN biosensor can quantitatively detect exosomes of 30–200 nm extracellular vesicles, isolated from a human glioma cell line. The limit of detection for an exosomal membrane protein with the BAF‐TiN biosensor is found to be 4.29 × 10−3 µg mL−1 for CD63, an exosome marker, and 2.75 × 10−3 µg mL−1 for epidermal growth factor receptor variant‐III, a glioma specific mutant protein, respectively. In conclusion, combining the biocompatibility, high stability, and excellent label‐free sensing performance of TiN, the BAF‐TiN biosensor could have great potential for the detection of cancer biomarkers, including exosomal surface proteins.
