Rapid diagnosis of an infectious disease outbreak in the field is critical for limiting the escalation of an outbreak into an epidemic. Devices suited to point-of-care (POC) diagnosis of cholera must not only demonstrate clinical laboratory levels of sensitivity and specificity but do so in a portable and low-cost manner, with a simplistic readout. We report work toward an on-chip electrochemical immunosensor for the detection of cholera toxin subunit B (CTX), based on a dendritic gold architecture biofunctionalized via poly(2-cyanoethyl)pyrrole (PCEPy). The dendritic electrode has an ∼18× greater surface area than a planar gold counterpart, per electrochemical measurements, allowing for a higher level of detection sensitivity. A layer of PCEPy polymer generated on the dendritic surface facilitated the performance of an electrochemical enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA) for CTX on-chip, which demonstrated a detection limit of 1 ng mL, per a signal-to-noise ratio of 2.6. This was more sensitive than detection using a simple planar gold electrode (100 ng mL) and also matched the diagnostic standard optical ELISA, but on a miniaturized platform with electrical readout. The ability to meet POC demands makes biofunctionalized gold dendrites a promising architecture for on-chip detection of cholera.
