Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), a type of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, is widely distributed in the environment. In this study, BaP immunogen and coating antigen were respectively prepared by different methods, and the specific antibody targeting the BaP analyte was obtained. Moreover, gold nanoparticles modified with the specific polyclonal antibody and thiol-capped DNA were prepared as biological probes. Based on the work above, an ultrasensitive biological probe enhanced real-time immuno-polymerase chain reaction (BP-rt-iPCR) assay was developed to detect BaP in several environmental samples. Under optimal conditions, the proposed method was used to detect BaP with a linearity ranging from 5 pg/l to 50 ng/l. The limit of detection was 1.63 pg/l. The recovery rates of the spiked samples ranged from 92.12% to 109.76% and the coefficients of variation were 7.53%-11.06%. This immunoassay was successfully used to detect BaP in environmental samples, and the BaP detection results were consistent with those obtained using high performance liquid chromatography, indicating that the BP-rt-iPCR method is accurate and reliable, and has great potential to detect trace amounts of BaP.
