In this work, the development of a disposable electrochemical device (US$ 0.02 per electrode) using a 3D printed support (3Ds) of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) insulating filament with a composite material (CM) based on graphite and nail polish, immobilized on the support surface, was described for the electrochemical determination of diclofenac (DCF). The device was compared to the commercial glassy carbon electrode (GCE) and showed superior electroanalytical performance with approximately 1.8-fold higher current density. Additionally, an amperometric method for DCF determination in tap water, synthetic urine, and pharmaceutical formulation samples with the proposed electrode, using a flow injection analysis (FIA-AD) system, was developed. The optimized method presented excellent detectability (LOD = 0.47 µmol L), with excellent precision and accuracy (relative standard deviation < 5.6%) and percent recovery from spiked samples ranging from 89 to 106%. In addition, the sensor showed optimal analytical frequency with approximately 108 injections per hour, which demonstrates the potential of this system using the proposed disposable electrode for implementation in routine analysis and quality control with good selectivity and sensitivity.

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.

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.

In order to identify carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in serum samples, an innovative smartphone-based, label-free electrochemical immunosensor was created without the need for additional labels or markers. This technology presents a viable method for on-site cancer diagnostics. The novel smartphone-integrated, label-free immunosensing platform was constructed by nanostructured materials that utilize the layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly technique, allowing for meticulous control over the interface.
