Title:
METHOD OF DETECTING HUMAN SERUM ALBUMIN IN BIOLOGICAL FLUIDS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/043087
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A method for human serum albumin (HSA) detection in a biological fluid using small molecule, fluorescent compounds having aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristics includes contacting the biological fluid with a fluorescent compound to provide a mixture, irradiating the mixture with ultraviolet light, and determining a presence of human serum albumin when an observable emission is detected. The fluorescent compound binds with human serum albumin in the biological fluid and the binding of the compound with the human serum albumin produces the emission. The biological fluid can be urine. The compounds can be water soluble and can include tetrazole-tagged AIEgens. The present methods can be performed using conventional fluorescent spectrometers, normally present in hospitals, or using an HSA detection device. The HSA detection device is portable and can be used by a patient at home.
