Although molecular imprinting technology has been widely used in the construction of virus sensors, it is still a great challenge to identify subtypes viruses specifically because of their high similarity in morphology, size and structure. Here, a monoclonal molecular imprinted polymers (MIPs) sensor for recognition of H5N1 is constructed to permit the accurate distinguishing of H5N1 from other influenza A virus (IAV) subtypes. Firstly, H5N1 are immobilized on magnetic microspheres to produce H5N1-MagNPs, then the high affinity nanogel H5N1-MIPs is prepared by solid phase imprinting technique. When H5N1-MIPs is combined with MagNP-H5N1, different concentrations of H5N1 are added for competitive substitution. The quantitative detection of H5N1 is realized by the change of fluorescence intensity of supernatant. As expected, the constructed sensor shows satisfactory selectivity, and can identify the target virus from highly similar IAV subtypes, such as H1N1, H7N9 and H9N2. The sensor was highly sensitive, with a detection limit of 0.58 fM, and a selectivity factor that is comparable to that of other small MIPs sensors is achieved. In addition, the proposed sensor is cheap, with a cost of only RMB 0.08 yuan. The proposed monoclonal sensor provides a new method for the specific recognition of designated virus subtype, which is expected to be used for large-scale screening and accurate treatment of infected people.
