摘要
Using nanotechnology in the immunoassay field, Lynntech has developed a nanopore-based sensor with electrochemical signal transduction for the detection of biologically relevant molecular targets. Antibodies of interest were immobilized on the inside wall of nanopores and the antibody-antigen interaction was monitored by measuring the ionic conductance through the nanopores. We have used electrochemical impedance spectroscopy to monitor the changes in the ionic conductance due to the antibody-antigen interaction. To aid the development of a portable, fast immunoassay instrument, we have selected specific impedance frequency values that are very sensitive to the ionic conductance changes. Biomarkers of prostate cancer, prostate-specific antigen and hepsin, were successfully assayed by the nanopore membrane-based electrochemical immunoassay in both phosphate-buffered saline and plasma medium.
