Measurement of Neuropeptide Y in Aptamer-Modified Planar Electrodes.

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is a powerful technique for studying the interaction at electrode/solution interfaces. The adoption of EIS for obtaining analytical signals in biosensors based on aptamers is gaining popularity because of its advantageous characteristics for molecular recognition. Neuropeptide Y (NPY), the most abundant neuropeptide in the body, plays a crucial role with its stress-relieving properties.
