By introducing heterocyclic compound to immunoassay system as an electrochemical substrate for the fist time, a new voltammetric enzyme-linked immunoassay system of 3-hydroxyl-2-aminopyridine (HAP)-H(2)O(2)-horseradish peroxidase (HRP) has been developed. HAP was oxidized with H(2)O(2) catalyzed by HRP, and the resulting electroactive product produced a sensitive voltammetric peak at potential of -0.36 V (vs. SCE) in Britton-Robinson (BR) buffer solution. The process of the enzyme-catalyzed reaction and the electro-reduction of the product have been investigated in detail. The linear range for detection of free HRP was from 4.0x10(-13) to 1.0x10(-9) g/mL with a detection limit of 1.2x10(-13) g/mL. The new system has been successfully applied for the assay of alpha-fetoprotein (alphaFP) in human serum ranging from 0.1 to 200 ng/mL with a detection limit of 0.1 ng/mL, which was 10 times lower than that of traditional spectrophotometric enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. HAP-H(2)O(2)-HRP voltammetric enzyme-linked immunoassay showed a promising alternative approach in the detection of alphaFP in clinical diagnosis.

Due to their lipophilicity and low content, the major sesame oleosin allergens, Ses i 4 and Ses i 5, are challenging to identify using conventional techniques. Then, a novel unlabeled electrochemical immunosensor was developed to detect the potential allergic activity of sesame oleosins. The voltammetric immunosensor was constructed using a composite of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), polyethyleneimine (PEI), and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), which was synthesized in a one-pot process and modified onto a glass carbon electrode to enhance the catalytic current of the oxygen reduction reaction.

The sensitive and accurate identification of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in biological fluids is essential for assessing migraine due to its role in different physiological and pathological processes. In this study, we designed a simple and feasible electrochemical immunosensing method for the voltammetric measurement of IL-6. The electrochemical immunosensor was fabricated through covalent conjugation of anti-IL-6 capture antibodies on the glassy carbon electrode with a typical carbodiimide coupling method.

Electrochemical detection methods hold many advantages over their optical counterparts, such as operation in complex sample matrices, low-cost and high volume manufacture and possible equipment miniaturisation. Despite these advantages, the use of electrochemical detection is currently limited in the clinical setting. There is a wide range of potential electrode materials, selected for optimal signal-to-noise ratios and reproducibility when detecting target analytes.

Early diagnosis of dengue infection by detecting the dengue virus non-structural protein 1 (DENV-NS1) is important to the patients to initiate speedy treatment. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)-based NS1 detection and RT-PCR are time-consuming and too complex to be employed in remote areas of dengue-endemic countries. Meanwhile, those of NS1 rapid test by lateral flow assay suffer from low detection limit.

Diabetes is a chronic disease characterized by elevated blood glucose levels resulting from absent or ineffective insulin release from pancreatic β-cells. β-cell function is routinely assessed in vitro using static or dynamic glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) assays followed by insulin quantification via time-consuming, costly enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). In this study, we developed a highly sensitive electrochemical sensor for zinc (Zn), an ion co-released with insulin, as a rapid and low-cost method for measuring dynamic insulin release.
