The above processes are all operated under aseptic conditions.
And separating and purifying the extracellular exosomes in the collected cell supernatant by using a centrifugal ultrafiltration method reported in the literature. The method comprises the following specific steps: the collected cell supernatant was centrifuged at 2500 g for 30min, then the supernatant was filtered through a 0.22 m ultrafiltration membrane to remove cell debris, then the collected solution was centrifuged at 5000 g for 30min through a 100 kDa ultrafiltration tube, and the collected exosome-containing solution was dissolved in PBS at pH 7.4 and stored at-80 ℃ for further use.

4. The method comprises the following steps:
adding exosomes derived from A549 cells with different concentrations, adding the recognition probe H1 and the signal probes H2 and H3 prepared in the above steps, wherein the concentration of the recognition probe and the concentration of the signal probe are respectively 50nM and 200nM, after reacting for 3H, detecting the fluorescence emission intensity of FAM at 522 nM and TAMRA at 580nM under excitation of excitation light at 480 nM in a reaction solution by using a fluorescence spectrophotometer, drawing a standard curve by taking the concentration of the exosomes as a horizontal coordinate and the ratio of the fluorescence intensity at 522 nM and 580nM as a vertical coordinate, and drawing R, wherein R is a standard curve20.992, as shown in FIG. 2. It can be seen that the fluorescence intensity ratio is larger as the concentration of lung cancer a549 cells is larger.
