A versatile and novel method has been developed for microfluidic immunosensing of the food-borne pathogen Staphylococcus enterotoxin B (SEB) in poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) chips. Supported bilayer membranes (SBMs) were generated by vesicle fusion in oxidized PDMS microchannels for minimizing non-specific adsorption of biomolecules. The stability of SBMs was strengthened with a streptavidin layer to make them air-stable and allow for subsequent display of the biotin-functionalized antibodies. The reinforced supported bilayer membranes (r-SBMs) are fluid, exhibiting a lateral diffusion coefficient of ∼1.9 µm² s⁻¹, and no detectable change of mobility was found after dehydration/rehydration. This is a substantial improvement over phosphatidylcholine (PC) membranes on PDMS, which suffered a roughly 10% reduction in the mobile fraction and 30% decrease in mobility after dehydration. Non-specific protein adsorption in the membrane-treated channels was reduced 100–1000 fold as compared to PDMS surfaces without a membrane coating. A flow-based microfluidic immunosensor for SEB was developed using antibodies linked to the r-SBMs in PDMS channels, and a detection limit of 0.5 ng mL⁻¹ was obtained from the linear portion of the calibration curve. The microchip was applied to detection of SEB in milk, and similar response and sensitivity were obtained, demonstrating the sensor's remarkable performance for real world samples. The r-SBMs overcome the stability hurdle in SBM-modified surfaces, opening up possibilities for transport and storage of membrane-functionalized microchips in the dehydrated form without compromising the performance, and facilitating the commercialization of disposable SBM-based microdevices.
