In this work, early-stage Aβ42 aggregates were detected using a real-time fast amyloid seeding and translocation (RT-FAST) assay. Specifically, Aβ42 monomers were incubated in buffer solution with and without preformed Aβ42 seeds in a quartz nanopipette coated with L-DOPA. Then, formed Aβ42 aggregates were analyzed on flyby resistive pulse sensing at various incubation time points. Aβ42 aggregates were detected only in the sample with Aβ42 seeds after 180 min of incubation, giving an on/off readout of the presence of preformed seeds. Moreover, this RT-FAST assay could detect preformed seeds spiked in 4% cerebrospinal fluid/buffer solution. However, in this condition, the time to detect the first aggregates was increased. Analysis of Cy3-labeled Aβ42 monomer adsorption on a quartz substrate after L-DOPA coating by confocal fluorescence spectroscopy and molecular dynamics simulation showed the huge influence of Aβ42 adsorption on the aggregation process.
