ABSTRACT: A visual chronometric assay for glutathione (GSH) and cysteine (Cy) is reported based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)-catalyzed clock reaction of methylene blue and hydrazine. The blue MB is reduced to colorless leucomethylene blue (LMB) by hydrazine in the presence of AuNPs as the nanocatalysts, and it is again oxidized back to MB by the oxygen under shaking. Therefore, a periodic oscillation is observed between blue MB and colorless LMB. However, when GSH or Cy is added to the clock reaction system, the catalytic activity of AuNPs decreases because of the inhibition of the formation of gold-hydride species, leading to a long reaction time from MB to LMB. The chronometric assay displays a good linear range of 10 to 330 µM for GSH and 20 to 400 µM for Cy, respectively. The limit of detection is estimated to be 8 and 10 µM at a 3σ, respectively. Different concentrations of GSH/Cy can be visually detected by observing the height of the blue solution under different reaction time points. In addition, the present assay shows a good selectivity, and it is successfully applied for detecting GSH/Cy in fetal bovine serum.

INTRODUCTION Biothiols such as glutathione (GSH) and cysteine (Cy) play important roles in physiological metabolisms1. For instance, GSH is one of the most important antioxidants in cells, which neutralizes reactive free-radical species to maintain the cell’s redox state2. The deficiency of Cy causes many diseases, including depigmentation of hair, lethargy, psoriasis, edema, liver damage, etc3, 4. Hence, the detection of Cy and GSH is of interest to biological monitoring and disease diagnosis. So far, various approaches such as capillary electrophoresis, high-performance liquid chromatography, fluorescence spectroscopy, electrochemical assay, and colorimetric methods have been established for the measurement of GSH and Cy4-17. Although these methods can effectively determine GSH and Cy, yet they require complicated and expensive instruments and tedious sample treatment processes, limiting their further applications. To this end, it is highly desirable to design and develop rapid and simple assays for GSH and Cy without the help of advanced instruments. Clock reactions are a special type of chemical kinetics phenomena which are characterized by an abrupt concentration change of some chemical species after a well-defined, sharp induction time18. The clock reaction provide a fascinating and visually reversible color change, which is usually based on redox systems. Many clock reactions are reported spanning from inorganic iodate-bisulfite reaction in the presence of HgCl2 to organic molecules (methylene blue)19. Conventional clock reactions occur at relatively high concentrations of chemical species to visually observe a reversible color change, making them unsuitable for the development of various assays for GSH and Cy. Recently, Pal et al., as well as several others, demonstrate that Cu2O nanoparticles, CuO-based nanocomposites, and Cu7S4 nanocages are able to catalyze the methylene blue (MB)-hydrazine clock reactions, in which the rate of the reaction is greatly enhanced at a low concentration of MB and hydrazine19-21. MB is easily reduced to the colorless leucomethylene blue (LMB) by the hydrazine in the presence of these nanocatalysts, and it is again oxidized back to MB by the oxygen under shaking. Therefore, an oscillation is observed between blue 3

MB and colorless LMB. However, the application of nanoparticle-catalyzed clock reactions for the detection of GSH and Cy has not been reported, to the best of our knowledge. In this work, we demonstrate that gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have a capacity for catalyzing the MB-hydrazine clock reaction. When GSH or Cy is introduced, the catalytic activity of AuNPs is inhibited because of the inhibition of the formation of gold-hydride species induced by the analytes. Based on the reaction time change from blue MB to colorless LMB, a visual chronometric assay is fabricated for the detection of GSH and Cy.

EXPERIMENTAL SECTION Materials and instruments. GSH, Cy, MB, hydrazine hydrate, glycine, serine, alanine, tyrosine, and threonine were purchased from Shanghai Aladdin Bio-Chem Technology Co., Ltd. Chloroauric acid, sodium hydrate, phosphoric acid, and acetic acid were obtained from Sinopharm Chemical Reagent Co., Ltd. All the chemicals were at least analytical grade and used without further purification. Deionized water was applicable to prepare various solutions. UV-vis absorption spectra were conducted on a spectrophotometer (Shimadzu UV-1800). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images were performed using a JEOL-2010 instrument. Gold nanoparticles-catalyzed clock reaction. The 13 nm AuNPs were synthesized by reduction of the chloroauric acid with sodium citrate aqueous solution (Figure S1) and their concentration were estimated to be 0.9 nM22. For the clock reaction, 0.2 mL of 0.5 mM MB solution and hydrazine hydrate (2.6 mL, 0.6 M) were injected into a 1 cm quartz cuvette. Subsequently, 0.2 mL of AuNPs dispersion with different concentrations was added to the above mixture, and the time-dependent UV-vis absorption spectra for each clock reaction were recorded. Assay procedures for glutathione and cysteine. A mixture solution containing 60 µM MB and 0.42 M hydrazine hydrate was prepared in 2 mL of Britton-Robinson (BR) buffer in the presence of varying concentrations Cy or GSH. After that, 1 mL 4

AuNPs (0.09 nM) dispersion was introduced, and the color of the mixture gradually changed from blue to colorless, which was recorded with a video camera of a smartphone. The reaction time change from blue to colorless in the absence and presence of target analytes was used for the quantitative detection. In order to detect the real samples, fetal bovine serum (FBS) was diluted 20 fold with deionized water, which was spiked with GSH/Cy and analyzed by the present assay.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Catalysis of MB-N2H4 clock reaction. The maximum absorption wavelength of the MB is located at 664 nm and shows a blue color. Nevertheless, when MB is reduced to colorless LMB by N2H4, the solution does not exhibit any absorption in the visible region. Consequently, we can monitor the clock reaction of MB and N2H4 by the corresponding UV-Vis absorption spectra.

In the absence of AuNPs, the clock reaction between MB and N2H4 can not proceed because the absorbance at 664 nm merely changes from 1.18 to 1.1 after 30 minutes of reaction (Figure 1a). On the contrary, the MB solution was first mixed with AuNPs dispersion, followed by addition of N2H4. It is observed that the absorbance at 664 nm decreases as the reaction time increases, which decreases to 0.1 within 10 min 5

in the presence of 0.03 nM AuNPs (Figure 1b) and generates a colorless solution (Figure 2), demonstrating that AuNPs can catalyze the reaction between MB and N2H4. The colorless mixture solution regenerates blue color by gentle shaking thanks to the ready oxidation of LMB by oxygen from the air (Figure 2), and the corresponding absorbance increases as shown in Figure 1c. The color of the solution fades to colorless again after standing for a few minutes due to the presence of the excess N2H4. A periodic oscillation is observed between blue MB and colorless LMB, demonstrating the clock reaction (Figure 2).

Figure 2 The reversible color change of MB reduced by N2H4 in the presence of AuNPs as the catalyst.

The clock reaction can proceed at least 30 cycles. Different concentrations of AuNPs are employed to identify the catalyst dosage dependent kinetics as displayed in Figure 1d. With an increasing catalyst dosage, the corresponding clock reaction becomes faster. All the results demonstrate that AuNPs can effectively catalyze the MB-N2H4 clock reaction. It has been reported that N2H4 is able to interact with AuNPs via Au-N covalents and be activated by AuNPs, giving birth to gold-hydride species, and the resultant hydride has a higher reaction activity than N2H4, which catalyzes the reduction of various compounds23. Accordingly, it is reasonable to suppose that the catalytic mechanism of the MB-N2H4 clock reaction is also ascribed 6

to the formation of gold-hydride species which promote the reduction of MB to LMB. Principle of visual chronometric detection of Cy and GSH. As is well known, thiol groups bind to the surface of AuNPs with high affinity by formation of strong Au-sulfur bonds. Therefore, when Cy or GSH is added to the clock reaction system, the catalytic activity of AuNPs decreases because GSH or Cy inhibits the formation of gold-hydride species due to the interaction between AuNPs and GSH/Cy. Under the circumstances, the reduction reaction of blue MB and N2H4 to produce colorless LMB catalyzed by AuNPs needs to a long time, which allows for visual chronometric detection of GSH/Cy (Figure 3).

experimental conditions as depicted in Figure 4. It can be seen that the blue solution of MB fades to colorless after standing 750 s in the absence of GSH/Cy. However, the time of the color change from blue to colorless greatly increases after addition of GSH or Cy to the clock reaction system, demonstrating that the AuNP-catalyzed MB-N2H4 clock reaction is capable of determining GSH/Cy (Figure 4b-4d). 7

Sensitivity and selectivity of the visual chronometric assay. To achieve a good performance, some experimental conditions such as the concentrations of MB, AuNPs, and N2H4 and pH of the buffer solution were optimized. The reaction time change from blue MB to colorless LMB in the presence and absence of GSH/Cy was employed as the criterion to examine the various detection conditions (Figure S2 and S3). It is found that the optimal experimental conditions are as follows: 0. 04 mM MB, 0.28 M N2H4, 0.03 nM AuNPs, and pH 5.8 for the detection of GSH; 0. 04 mM MB, 0.28 M N2H4, 0.03 nM AuNPs, and pH 9.6 for the detection of Cy, respectively.

Under these optimized experimental conditions, different concentrations of GSH/Cy were added to the AuNPs-catalyzed MB-N2H4 clock reaction, and the corresponding reaction time was recorded. Figure 5a and Figure S4a show the optical images of the clock reaction in the presence of different concentrations of GSH/Cy under different reaction time. Obviously, the clock reaction becomes slower and the 9

reaction time gradually increases with an increase of the GSH/Cy concentration (Figure 5b and Figure S4b). As indicated in Figure 5c and Figure S4c, the plots of the reaction time versus the concentration of analyte concentration exhibit a good linear relationship in the range of 10 to 330 µM for GSH and 20 to 400 µM for Cy, respectively. The limit of detection (LOD) for GSH and Cy is calculated to be 8 and 10 µM at a 3σ, respectively. As shown in Table 1, this sensitivity is better than or comparable to that of the reported methods for detection of GSH/Cy such as fluorimetry, electrochemiluminescence, and colorimetry. Moreover, the used molecules in the reported assays are easy to be hydrolyzed under an acid or alkaline environment, leading to an unsatisfied selectivity. Furthermore, the preparation of the molecules and nanomaterials, including Au nanorods and functionalized AuNPs, and the sample pretreatment require a long reaction time, which causes a long detection time (Table 1). On the contrary, the present AuNPs-based chronometric assay for GSH/ Cy not only can be finished within 2.5 h and has a good selectivity (Figure S5), but also does not involve any advanced instrument, which can be further improved by using a more efficient catalyst. Importantly, different concentrations of GSH/Cy can be visually distinguished by observing the height of the blue solution as shown in Figure 5a and Figure S4a.

The selectivity of this assay is further investigated under the same experimental conditions. The reaction time responses of the AuNP-catalyzed MB-N2H4 clock reaction to GSH, Cy, and other amino acids including glycine, serine, alanine, tyrosine, threonine, glucose (Glu), fructose (Fru), urea (UA), Mg2+, Na+, K+, Ca2+, Cland NO3- at a concentration of 330 µM are summarized in Figure S5. It is clear that only GSH/Cy causes a significant reaction time change, while other amino acids, organic and inorganic species display no apparent effects on the reaction time of the assay. The good selectivity of this assay is due to that the affinity of AuNPs toward GSH/Cy is much greater than that for other substances. Compared with Cy, GSH has more thiol groups, resulting in a longer reaction time. Taken together, these results confirm that the present assay shows a good selectivity for GSH/Cy. Detection of cysteine and glutathione in fetal bovine serum. To identify the potential application, the present chronometric assay is also applied to determining GSH and Cy in fetal bovine serum (FBS). The 20-fold dilution of the FBS was carried 11

to eliminate the matrix effect. Then, different concentrations of GSH/Cy were spiked into the diluted FBS samples, which were determined by the present assay. The detection results are indicated in Table S1 and S2. The recoveries of these six samples are obtained from 100% to 108%, and the relative standard deviations (RSDs) below 5.0%. Such results reveal that this chronometric assay is suitable for the detection of GSH and Cy in real serum samples.

CONCLUSIONS We developed a visual chronometric method for the detection of GSH and Cy based on AuNPs-catalyzed MB-N2H4 clock reaction. The catalytic mechanism is attributed to the catalytic activation of N2H4 by AuNPs to generate gold-hydride species. The addition of GSH/Cy restrained the catalytic activity of the AuNPs owing to the formation of Au-sulfur bonds which prevent the interaction between AuNPs and N2H4, leading to a long time of the color change from blue to colorless. This chronometric assay has many distinct advantages. Firstly, it does not involve expensive and complicated instruments, which ensures simple, convenient, and low-cost detection. Secondly, different concentrations of analytes can be visually detected by observing the height of blue solution. Thirdly, it works well in serum samples. The present work proposes an alternative method for the detection of GSH/Cy, which is a promising candidate for clinical diagnosis and other biological applications.
