A Guided Mode Resonance Aptasensor for Thrombin Detection

A Guided Mode Resonance Aptasensor for Thrombin Detection

Recent developments in aptamers have led to their widespread use in analytical and diagnostic applications, particularly for biosensing. Previous studies have combined aptamers as ligands with various sensors for numerous applications. However, merging the aptamer developments with guided mode resonance (GMR) devices has not been attempted. This study reports an aptasensor based home built GMR ...

Vesicular aptasensor for the detection of thrombin.

Self-assembled phospholipid vesicles are functionalized with thrombin-binding aptamers using a thiol-click reaction. The resulting aptasensors signal the binding of the analyte to the vesicle surface by changes of the emission properties of membrane co-embedded reporter dyes.

Designing a Label Free Aptasensor for Detection of Methamphetamine

A label-free electrochemical nucleic acid aptasensor for the detection of methamphetamine (MA) by the immobilization of thiolated self-assembled DNA sequences on a gold nanoparticles-chitosan modified electrode is constructed. When MA was complexed specifically to the aptamer, the configuration of the nucleic acid aptamer switched to a locked structure and the interface of the biosensor changed...

A Reusable Impedimetric Aptasensor for Detection of Thrombin Employing a Graphite-Epoxy Composite Electrode

Here, we report the application of a label-free electrochemical aptasensor based on a graphite-epoxy composite electrode for the detection of thrombin; in this work, aptamers were immobilized onto the electrodes surface using wet physical adsorption. The detection principle is based on the changes of the interfacial properties of the electrode; these were probed in the presence of the reversibl...
