Herein, we report the biocompatible amine-functionalized gadolinium oxide nanoparticles (Gd2O3 NPs) for the possibility of electrochemical detection of Vibrio cholerae (Vc) cells. The microwave irradiation process is applied to synthesize Gd2O3 NPs. The amine (NH2) functionalization is carried out via overnight stirring with 3(Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) at 55 °C. The size of NPs amine functionalized APETS@Gd2O3 NPs are determined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). APETS@Gd2O3 NPs are further electrophoretically deposited onto indium tin oxide (ITO) coated glass substrate to obtain working electrode surface. The monoclonal antibodies (anti-CT) specific to cholera toxin associated to Vc cells are covalently immobilized onto the above electrodes using EDC-NHS chemistry and further BSA is added to obtain the BSA/anti-CT/APETS@Gd2O3/ITO immunoelectrode. Further, this immunoelectrode shows the response for cells in CFU range from 3.125 × 106 to 30 × 106 and is very selective with sensitivity and LOD 5.07 mA CFUs mL cm-2 and 0.9375 × 106 CFU respectively. To establish a future potential for APTES@Gd2O3 NPs in field of biomedical applications and cytosensing, the effect of APTES@Gd2O3 NPs on mammalian cells is also observed using in vitro cytotoxicity assay and cell cycle analysis.
