A 3D microfluidic paper-based electrochemical immunodevice (μ-PEID) for simultaneous sensitive detection of two tumor biomarkers was fabricated. A nanoporous Pt particle modified paper working electrode (NPPt-PWE) was used as the matrix and metal ions loaded on the l-cysteine capped flower-like Au nanoparticles (Au-Cys) were used as a signal amplification label. The NPPt-PWE was constructed through the growth of a NPPt layer on the back of the paper working electrode to improve electron conduction. Besides, the prepared flower-like Au-Cys could significantly enhance the amount of loaded metal ions and played an important role in connecting the signal antibodies. The metal ion labels could be detected directly through differential pulse voltammetry without metal pre-concentration, and the distinct voltammetric peaks had a close relationship with each sandwich-type immunoreaction. Therefore, a novel 3D μ-PEID for simultaneously detecting carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) with wider linear ranges was developed. The linear range was from 0.004 to 200 ng mL and the limits of detection for AFP and CEA were 1.0 pg mL and 1.3 pg mL (S/N = 3), respectively. The good stability, reproducibility, and accuracy of the μ-PEID indicate that it has great potential application in clinical diagnostics.

Lymphatic vessel endothelium expresses various lymphatic marker molecules. LYVE-1, the lymphatic vessel endothelial hyaluronan (HA) receptor, a 322-residue protein belonging to the integral membrane glycoproteins which is found on lymph vessel wall and is completely absent from blood vessels. LYVE-1 is very effective in the passage of lymphocytes and tumor cells into the lymphatics.

In recent years, several efforts have been made to develop selective, sensitive, fast response, and miniaturized immunosensors with improved performance for the monitoring and screening of analytes in several matrices, significantly expanding the use of this technology in a broad range of applications. However, one of the main technical challenges in developing immunosensors is overcoming the complexity of binding antibodies (Abs) to the sensor surface. Most immobilizing approaches lead to a random orientation of Abs, resulting in lower binding site density and immunoaffinity.

The detection of specific biomarkers is used in various phases of the diagnosis of plant and human diseases, from prognosis to monitoring. Herein, we report a Prussian blue nanocube-modified immunodevice interfaced with a paper disc for the detection of plant biomarkers via streptavidin-biotin recognition. The detection ability of the immunodevice was assessed using Potato virus X as a model biomarker and analyzed using cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse voltammetry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a non-sulfated glycosaminoglycan, which is a potential biomarker that could be evaluated in the diagnosis of some cancers. For the first time, a novel label-free electrochemical immunosensor was developed based on modified ITO-PET (indium tin oxide-polyethylene terephthalate) electrodes for the sensitive recognition of hyaluronic acid (HA) in real samples. A disposable ITO-coated PET electrode was modified with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to construct a suitable substrate for the efficient immobilization of biotinylated antibodies of HA.
