Nesse contexto, os imunossensores têm apresentado respostas promissoras, revelando-se como métodos analíticos práticos, rápidos e econômicos. Recentemente, a utilização de nanomateriais de alótropos de carbono, destacando-se os nanotubos de carbono (NTC), têm resultado em melhoria na sensibilidade por aumentar transferência eletrônica, sobretudo quando aliados a polímeros condutores. O objetivo deste trabalho foi desenvolver plataforma nanoestruturada para aplicação em imunossensores. Como objeto de estudo, foi detectado anticorpos contra o nucleocapsídeo do vírus da hepatite B (HBV), visto que este marcador é o mais importante no controle e vigilância de bolsas de sangue em serviços hemoterápicos. No presente trabalho, eletrodos de tinta de carbono serigrafados sobre substrato de politileno tereftalato (PET) foram modificados por 0,0063% de nanotubos de carbono (NTC-COOH) e 6% em concentração de ftalocianina de cobalto (CoPc) que foram recobertos com filmes de polipirrol (PPi). O filme foi obtido por cronoamperometria (0,8V, 80s) usando soluções de 0,1 M de pirrol (Pi) em meio ácido. Foi observada uma boa reprodutibilidade e estabilidade dos eletrodos sobretudo pós-inserção do filme quando caracterizado eletroquimicamente. Além disso, as imagens de microscopia eletrônica mostraram uma baixa produção de pirroles. Os sensores desenvolvidos com a associação de nanotubos de carbono funcionalizados apresentaram melhor desempenho analítico em relação ao controle (sem NTC). A imobilização do antígeno do núcleo capsídeo da hepatite B (HBc-Ag) foi confirmada por decréscimo da área eletroativa dos voltamogramas cíclicos. A resposta aos anticorpos anti-HBc foi evidenciada por técnica de voltametria de onda quadrada, mostrando que a plataforma desenvolvida é promissora para aplicação em sensor para hepatite. / Currently, they have been sought methods that enable effective diagnosis, practical, fast and low-cost in detecting diseases that may prove attractive to public health services. In this context, immunosensors have shown promising responses, revealing himself as analytical methods of practical, fast and economical. Recently, the use of carbon allotropes of nanomaterials, highlighting carbon nanotubes (CNT), have resulted in improved sensitivity by increasing wire transfer, especially when combined with conductive polymers. The aim of this study was to develop nanostructured platform for immunosensors application. As study object was detected antibodies against the nucleocapsid of hepatitis B virus (HBV), as this marker is the most important in the control and surveillance of blood bags in haemotherapic services. In this study, carbon ink electrodes screen printed on the substrate polythene terephthalate (PET) have been modified for 0.0063% of carbon nanotubes (CNT-COOH) and 6% concentration of cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) were coated with polypyrrole films (PPy). The film was obtained by chronoamperometry (0.8 V, 80 s) using 0.1 M solution of pyrrole (Py) in acidic. Was observed a good reproducibility and stability particularly after insertion of the film electrode when electrochemically characterized. Furthermore, electron microscopy images showed a low production pyrroles. The sensors developed in association with functionalized carbon nanotubes showed better analytical performance compared to the control (without NTC). The immobilization of the capsid antigen hepatitis B core (HBc-Ag) was confirmed by decreasing the area of the electroactive cyclic voltammograms. The response to anti-HBc antibody was evidenced by technical square wave voltammetry, showing that the platform is developed promising for application to sensor hepatitis.

Aujourd'hui, avec l'augmentation de la population, la consommation de médicaments et de produits phytosanitaires dans l'agriculture a considérablement augmenté. Cela devient inquiétant car une grande partie de ces molécules, rejetée dans l'environnement, ne sont pas bien éliminées par les stations d'épuration (lorsqu'elles existent). En trop grande quantité, ces produits deviennent des poisons pour tous les organismes vivants, y compris l’Homme.Des méthodes analytiques classiques pour la mesure de ces produits chimiques existent déjà (méthodes séparatives classiques telles que la chromatographie en phase gazeuse, la chromatographie liquide à haute performance, éventuellement couplée à la spectrométrie de masse, etc.). Cependant, même si elles sont extrêmement précises et fiables, ces techniques sont difficiles à appliquer pour la surveillance sur site et sont généralement coûteuses. Pour cette raison, ma thèse se concentre sur de nouvelles approches analytiques pour détecter de petites molécules en milieu aqueux, telles que ces polluants. Dans une première partie de mon travail, j’ai développé un immunocapteur basé sur une complexation compétitive originale et sur une transduction électrochimique (ampérométrique), pour la détection du diclofénac, un anti - inflammatoire non stéroïdien généralement utilisé pour réduire l’inflammation et soulager la douleur. L'électrode de travail a été fonctionnalisée par deux sels de diazonium, l'un utilisé comme sonde moléculaire (un dérivé du diclofénac couplé à une arylamine) et l'autre comme sonde redox (une quinone) également couplée à une arylamine, capable de transduire l'association haptène-anticorps par une variation de son électroactivité ; en particulier, la transduction a été conçue pour délivrer une augmentation de courant lors de la détection du diclofénac (soit une détection « signal-on »). J’ai montré une limite de détection d’environ 20 fM dans l'eau du robinet, ce qui rend ce type de capteur très compétitif. Dans la suite de mon travail, j'ai conservé la même approche de transduction originale (immunoreconnaissance compétitive) mais appliquée à un transistor à effet de champ organique à grille électrolytique (EGOFET) dont le semiconducteur est le poly (N-alkyldiketopyrrolo-pyrrole dithiénylthiéno [3,2-b ] thiophène) (DPP-DTT) et dont l'électrode de grille a été fonctionnalisée par électrogreffage d'un sel de diazonium fonctionnel capable de lier un anticorps spécifique de l'acide 2,4-dichlorophénoxyacétique (2,4-D), un herbicide courant. Le design de la sonde moléculaire a été rationalisée par modélisation moléculaire afin d’optimiser la capture de l’anticorps en surface de grille. Dans la dernière partie de mon travail, je propose une approche qui met à profit à la fois le couplage capacitif de l'EGOFET mais aussi sa sensibilité aux charges électrostatiques accumulées en surface de grille. J'ai immobilisé en surface de grille un peptide court (Gly-Gly-His) connu pur avoir une forte affinité envers les ions cuivre Cu2+. Le peptide a été immobilisé par électro-oxydation directe de l'amine primaire du premier fragment glycine. J’ai démontré que les dispositifs EGOFET, modifiés par GGH, peuvent transduire la complexation de Cu2+ par des variations significatives de leurs caractéristiques de sortie et de transfert, en particulier par un décalage de la tension de seuil (VTh). / Today, with the increase of population, the consumption of drugs and of chemicals in agriculture has dramatically increased. It becomes a worrisome issue because a large amount of these molecules, excreted to the environment, are not well eliminated by water-treatment plants (when they exist) and are therefore released without control into the ecosystem. In too large quantities, these drugs are poisons for living organisms, including humans. Classical analytical methods for the measurement of these chemicals already exist (classical separative methods such as gas chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography, possibly coupled with mass spectrometry, etc). However, even if extremely precise and reliable, these techniques are difficult to apply for on-site monitoring and are usually costly. For this reason, my thesis focuses on novel analytical approaches to detect small organic molecules such as these pollutants. In a first part of my work, I developped an original immunosensor based on a competitive complexation and on an electrochemical (amperometric) transduction, for detection of diclofenac, which is a non – steroidal anti – inflammatory drug generally employed to protect patients from inflammation and relieve pain. The working electrode was electrografted with two functional diazonium salts, one as molecular probe (a diclofenac derivative coupled with an arylamine) and the other as redox probe (a quinone) also coupled with an arylamine, able to transduce the hapten-antibody association into a change in electroactivity. The transduction was designed to deliver a current increase upon detection of diclofenac (“signal-on” detection). The detection limit is ca. 20 fM in tap water, which is competitive compared to other label-free immunosensors. In the following part of my thesis, I kept the same original transduction approach (competitive immunoassay) but applied to an Electrolyte-Gated Organic Field-Effect Transistor (EGOFET) based on poly(N-alkyldiketopyrrolo-pyrrole dithienylthieno[3,2-b]thiophene) as organic semiconductor whose gate electrode was functionalized by electrografting a functional diazonium salt capable to bind an antibody specific to 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), an herbicide well-known to be a soil and water pollutant. Molecular docking computations were performed to design the functional diazonium salt to rationalize the antibody capture on the gate surface. In the last part of my work, I propose an approach which takes profit not only of the capacitive coupling of the EGOFET but also on its sensitivity to electrostatic charges accumulated on the gate surface. To illustrate this in the field of sensors, I used a short peptide (Gly-Gly-His), known to selectively bind copper ions Cu2+. The peptide was immobilized by direct electrooxidation of the primary amine of the first glycine moiety. I demonstrated that GGH-modified EGOFETs can transduce Cu2+ complexation through significant changes of their output and transfer characteristics, in particular their threshold voltage (VTh).
