This paper presents the construction and characterization of an amperometric immunosensor based on the graphene/gold nanoparticles (AuNPs/GO) nanocomposite for the detection of the bladder cancer biomarker, apolipoprotein A1 (Apo-A1). The morphological analysis of the AuNPs/GO nanocomposite demonstrated an almost spherical shape of AuNPs and the successful coverage of their surface by graphene oxide. An increased G peak and decreased D peak after the association of AuNPs with GO, implied a reduction in graphene defects. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) indicated a significant decrease in the quantity of oxygen-containing functional groups in the AuNPs/GO nanocomposite, as compared to the original GO. Furthermore, the developed sensor demonstrated commendable sensitivity and selectivity, with a wide linear range for Apo-A1 detection. Importantly, the immunosensor exhibited remarkable stability over a period of 14 days, signifying its potential for practical applications.

This paper presents an electrochemical immunosensor using a graphene/multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) composite platform for detecting the cardiovascular marker C-reactive protein (CRP). The immunosensor exhibited a linear detection range of 0.20–100 ng/mL CRP with a low limit of detection reaching 0.081 ng/mL. The composite material provided a 3D porous structure that allowed efficient antibody immobilization and minimized steric hindrance. The sensor showed high specificity, with minimal response to interfering substances. Using differential pulse voltammetry, the immunosensor demonstrated exceptional precision, rapid detection, and a direct correlation between CRP concentration and sensor response current. Overall, this work highlights the potential of the graphene/MWCNT composite platform as a robust tool for early CRP detection and cardiovascular disease risk assessment. The immunosensor provides sensitive and selective CRP quantification that could enable timely clinical intervention for at-risk individuals.

In this paper, the electrochemical non-enzyme immunosensor has been developed for the determination of salmonella antigen, using inverse voltammetry. For the estimation of salmonella antigen concentration, the nanoparticles synthesized by microemulsion method were conjugated with salmonella antigen. Then, the immunocomplex between antibody immobilized on the transducer surface and antigen containing a magnetic nanoparticles was formed. From the linear relationship between the reduction peak current of Fe(III) and salmonella antigen concentration, it is suggested that the electrochemical non-enzyme biosensor is applicable to detect salmonella antigen in the concentration range of

냉장식품의 주요한 변패원인균으로서 저온세균인 Pseudomonas areuginosa를 최소 전처리한 후 신속히 검출할 수 있는 비표지 면역센서 시스템을 개발하였다. 수정결정전극상으로의 생물요소인 항체의 고정화는 이형이기능성 가교화제인 sulfosuccinimidyl 6-[3-(2-pyridyldithio)propronamide]hexanoate를 사용하여 항체를 티올화시킨 후 티올화된 항체를 화학흡착하여 향하였고, P.areuginosa flagella에 대한 단클론항체를 사용하였을 때 다클론항체를 사용한 경우보다 센서감응이 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 항체가 고정화된 센서 chip과 flow형 quartz crystal microbalance 계측시스템을 이용하여 균 첨가 및 증균을 향한 10종의 모델시료에 대한 계측을 향하였다. 이 때, 시료자체에 의한 진동수변화가 52~89 Hz 범위인 반면 균 첨가 시에 나타난 진동수변화는 108~220 Hz이었고 증균시료에 의한 진동수변화는 162~222 Hz 범위로 나타났다. 시스템 안정화, 시료주입 및 정상상태의 센서반응 획득, 시스템 세척으로 이루어지는 한 주기의 센서계측에 소요된 시간으 모든 시료에 있어 30분 이내였다.
