Oriented Antibody-Assembled Metal-Organic Frameworks for Persistent Wearable Sweat Cortisol Detection.

Abstract
The level of cortisol can reflect people's psychological stress, help diagnose adrenal gland diseases, and is also related to several mental diseases. In this study, we developed a cortisol monoclonal antibody-oriented approach to modify an immunosensor for wearable label-free and persistent sweat cortisol detection. On such an antibody-oriented immunosensor, the fragment crystallizable (Fc) region is partially inserted within the metal-organic framework (MOF), and antibody-binding regions of the cortisol monoclonal antibody (Cmab) were exposed on the MOF surface via selective growth and self-assembly. Such ordered and oriented embedding of antibodies in the MOF resulted in excellent antibody activity and improved stability and antigen-binding capacity. We also engineered the full integrated system for on-body sweat cortisol biosensing performance in several volunteers, and the results indicated that this wearable sensor is suitable for practical cortisol detection with a good linear detection range from 1 pg/mL to 1 μg/mL with a lower limit of detection of 0.26 pg/mL. Moreover, the wearable sensor demonstrated good persistence in detecting cortisol, with only 4.1% decay after 9 days of storage. The present work represents a simple oriented antibody assembling approach to improve the stability of antibodies, providing an important step toward long-term continuous sweat biomarker detection.
