Abstract
The necessity to scrutinize more and more biological molecules and interactions both in solution and on the cellular level has led to an increasing demand for sensitive and specific multiplexed diagnostic analysis. Photoluminescence (PL) detection is ideally suited for multiplexed biosensing and bioimaging because it is rapid and sensitive and there is an almost unlimited choice of fluorophores that provide a large versatility of photophysical properties, including PL intensities, spectra, and lifetimes.The most frequently used technique to detect multiple parameters from a single sample is spectral (or color) multiplexing with different fluorophores, such as organic dyes, fluorescent proteins, quantum dots, or lanthanide nanoparticles and complexes. In conventional PL biosensing approaches, each fluorophore requires a distinct detection channel and excitation wavelength. This drawback can be overcome by Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) from lanthanide donors to other fluorophore acceptors. The lanthanides' multiple and spectrally narrow emission bands over a broad spectral range can overlap with several different acceptors at once, thereby allowing FRET from one donor to multiple acceptors. The lanthanides' extremely long PL lifetimes provide two important features. First, time-gated (TG) detection allows for efficient suppression of background fluorescence from the biological environment or directly excited acceptors. Second, temporal multiplexing, for which the PL lifetimes are adjusted by the interaction with the FRET acceptor, can be used to determine specific biomolecules and/or their conformation via distinct PL decays. The high signal-to-background ratios, reproducible and precise ratiometric and homogeneous (washing-free) sensing formats, and higher-order multiplexing capabilities of lanthanide-based TG-FRET have resulted in significant advances in the analysis of biomolecular recognition. Applications range from fundamental analysis of biomolecular interactions and conformations to high-throughput and point-of-care in vitro diagnostics and DNA sequencing to advanced optical encoding, using both liquid and solid samples and in situ, in vitro, and in vivo detection with high sensitivity and selectivity.In this Account, we discuss recent advances in lanthanide-based TG-FRET for the development and application of advanced immunoassays, nucleic acid sensing, and fluorescence imaging. In addition to the different spectral and temporal multiplexing approaches, we highlight the importance of the careful design and combination of different biological, organic, and inorganic molecules and nanomaterials for an adjustable FRET donor-acceptor distance that determines the ultimate performance of the diagnostic assays and conformational sensors in their physiological environment. We conclude by sharing our vision on how progress in the development of new sensing concepts, material combinations, and instrumentation can further advance TG-FRET multiplexing and accelerate its translation into routine clinical practice and the investigation of challenging biological systems.
