Boron doped diamond thin films for the electrochemical detection of SARS-CoV-2 S1 protein.

Amidst a global pandemic, a precise and widely accessible rapid detection method is needed for accurate diagnosis and contact tracing. The lack of this technology was exposed through the outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 beginning in 2019. This study sets the foundation for the development of a boron doped diamond (BDD)-based impedimetric sensor.
