A CdSe/ZnS quantum dot (QD) based electrochemical immunoassay of phosphorylated bovine serum albumin (BSA-OP) as a protein biomarker is presented. The QDs were used as labels for amplifying electrochemical signals and were conjugated with a secondary anti-phosphoserine antibody in a heterogeneous sandwich immunoassay. In this assay, the model phosphorylated protein BSA-OP was added to the prima...

We have developed a new procedure for fabricating interdigitated array gold electrodes (Au-IDA) modified with reduced graphene oxide (rGO). In this procedure, we coated the gold surface of the micrometer order electrodes with graphene oxide (GO) prior to the reduction and the lift-off processes to avoid short-circuiting the pair of electrodes by conductive rGO flakes after the reduction. We t...

A competitive electrochemical immunoassay for highly sensitive detection of AFB1 is demonstrated using layer-by-layer (LBL) assembled quantum dots (QDs) as labels. To investigate the effects of the higher sensitivity of square wave voltammetric stripping (SWV) and of the LBL technique on the proposed immunoassays, the proposed assay was compared to electrochemical (EC) and fluorescent immunoass...

This paper reports a rapid microchip-based electrochemical enzyme immunoassay with surface-functionalized poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) channel. The microchip fabricated on a glass substrate by photolithography consists of a three-electrode system for electrochemical detection and is assembled with the antibody-immobilized PDMS channel by plasma treatment. For effective immobilization of target...

A new and enzyme-free electrochemical immunoassay protocol was developed for the sensitive electronic monitoring of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) on a monoclonal mouse anti-human NSE antibody (mAb)-modified glassy carbon electrode, using guanine-decorated graphene nanostructures (GGN) as nanotags. To construct such an enzyme-free immunoassay format, guanine and polyclonal rabbit anti-human NSE ...

We describe a new approach for reagentless electrochemical immunoassay sensing in which Au/Pd NPs can be "loaded" onto antibodies to create an electrocatalytic antibody that is sensitive to the oxygen reduction reaction.

A novel and redox-active nanocatalyst, Au(III)-promoted polyaniline gold nanosphere (GPANG), was designed as the nanolabel for highly efficient electrochemical immunoassay of human IgG by coupling with electrocatalytic recycling of self-produced reactants.

A flow immunoassay based on a combined technique of the sequential injection with the beads injection using magnetic microbeads immobilized with antigen or antibody is described. A methodology of the present immunoassay based on chemiluminescence and electrochemical detection and its application to the determination of vitelloginin (Vg) and anionic surfactant, linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS...
