| Abstract | Novel fluorescent poly(styrene–acrylamide–acrylic acid) nanoparticles (FPSAAN) were synthesized by means of soapless emulsion polymerization and being modified with hydrazine hydrate by hydrazinolysis. The azidocarbonyl groups which can be rapidly coupled with proteins under mild condition were introduced onto the fluorescent nanoparticles by azido-reaction. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) was selected as a model protein to be covalently immobilized on the azidocarbonyl FPSAAN. Atom force microscopy (AFM), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Ultraviolet–visible (UV/Vis) spectrometer, Fourier transforms infrared spectrometer (FTIR), nanoparticle size analyzer and fluorescence spectrophotometer were used to characterize the FPSAAN. Results showed that FPSAAN had a regular spherical shape, and a dramatic narrow size distribution (polydispersity index 0.046 ± 0.009). The fluorescence intensity of FPSAAN (λ$_{ex}$/λ$_{em}$ = 253/306 nm), hydrazide-FPSAAN (λ$_{ex/}$λ$_{em}$ = 260/326 nm), and protein-immobilized FPSAAN (λ$_{ex}$/λ$_{em}$ = 258/325 nm) was linearly related to the concentration ranging from 1.0 × 10$^{−3}$ g l$^{−1}$ to 10.0 × 10$^{−3}$ g l$^{−1}$. The linear relationship was obtained. The equations are y = 52.808x + 16.465 (R $^{2}$ = 0.9927), y = 5.1814x + 4.1535 (R $^{2}$ = 0.9935) and y = 5.2227x + 5.2883 (R $^{2}$ = 0.9937), respectively. In addition, external factors such as pH and ionic strength exert a slight influence on fluorescent properties. The experiments of the immobilization of BSA indicated that FPSAAN with azidocarbonyl groups could be covalently coupled with BSA at the rate of 41.1%. Meanwhile, hCG antibody immobilized FPSAAN have the similar fluorescence characteristics to BSA immobilized FPSAAN. Only negligible difference of the fluorescence characteristics can be found. Furthermore, the fluorescence characteristics of hCG antibody immobilized FPSAAN have not been obviously affected after mixed with the hCG antigen and human plasma. These novel azidocarbonyl FPSAAN with stable fluorescence and active functional azidocarbonyl groups could be used as a promising fluorescent probe for quantitative detection, protein immobilization, cell labeling research and early rapid clinical diagnostics. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
