A label-free electrochemical immunosensor based on the biscuit-like bismuth nanosheets (BiNSs) and multi-wall carbon nanotubes-chitosan-gold nanoparticles (MWCNTs-Chit-AuNPs) was constructed for the detection of human immunoglobulin G (hIgG). The biscuit-like BiNSs prepared by one-step aqueous phase reduction method had a large electroactive surface area, 1.7 times that of bare glassy carbon electrode (GCE), which could load more antibodies and were used as a larger platform for the specific identification of antigens and antibodies. In addition, MWCNTs and AuNPs with good conductivity could be used to regulate the sensing interface, which promoted electron transfer greatly. Moreover, the AuNPs could stably anchor anti-hIgG by the affinity interaction between amine group of antibody and AuNPs, which greatly increased the number of anti-hIgG attached to the sensing platform. Under the optimal conditions, the proposed immunosensor exhibited excellent analytical performance for hIgG with a wide linear response of 0.01-1000 ng/mL and a low detection limit of 4.26 pg/mL. The electrochemical immunosensor exhibited favorable reproducibility, excellent specificity and high storage stability. Additionally, the immunosensor could be applied to determining hIgG in human serum samples as well. Considering these advantages, the electrochemical immunosensor has the potential application in clinical diagnosis.

Anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) detection receives much attention since it is used as an ideal biomarker for quantitative assessment of ovarian reserve. The present study proposed a first report on the use of MOF-on-MOF as an electrochemical sensor for recognizing AMH in buffer and serum media. The MOF-on-MOF, MIL-88 B@UiO66NH was synthesized by the internal extended growth method (IEGM) involving MIL-88 B on UiO66NH by in situ method for the first time.

Early detection of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is crucial for eliminating this silent killer, especially in resource-limited settings. HCV core antigen (HCVcAg) represents a promising alternative to the current "gold standard" HCV RNA assays as an active viremia biomarker. Herein, a highly sensitive electrochemical magneto-immunosensor for the HCVcAg was developed.

Although various sensors specifically developed for target analytes are available, affordable biosensing solutions with broad applicability are limited. In this study, a cost-effective biosensor for detecting human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) was developed using custom-made gold leaf electrodes (GLEs). A novel strategy for antibody immobilization on a gold surface, for the first time mediated by protein L and HER2-specific antibody trastuzumab, was examined using commercial screen-printed gold electrodes and GLEs.

Accurate quantification of specific biomarkers is essential for clinical diagnosis and evaluating therapeutic efficacy. A self-signal-amplifying poly(acrylic acid) (PAA)/polyaniline (PANI) film-modified disposable and cost-effective screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) has been developed for constructing new label-free immunosensors targeting two model biomarkers: human immunoglobulin G (IgG) and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP). The electrochemically deposited PAA/PANI film on the SPCE serves a dual function: both a bio-immobilization support and a signal amplifier, enhancing biomarker detection sensitivity and efficiency.

An electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor was developed for the highly sensitive and specific detection of heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) and the rapid diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). H-FABP is a biomarker that is highly specific to cardiac tissue and is associated with a range of cardiac diseases. Following myocardial injury, the rate of increase in H-FABP levels is greater than that observed for myoglobin and troponin.
