Abstract
Thrombin, a key factor in the coagulation cascade, is a valuable biomarker of great importance for the prognosis, diagnosis, and monitoring of various diseases, including cancer and heart disease. Due to the increasing attention to the development of point-of-care testing (POCT) options, various types of biosensors have been invented to enhance the accuracy and speed of detection of important biomarkers such as thrombin. Implementation of aptamers in biosensors (aptasensors) improves the target recognition capacity due to the high-affinity binding nature of aptamers. Herein, this review presents recent studies of aptasensors for thrombin detection based on different detection mechanisms encompassing optical biosensors, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), electrochemical detection, piezoelectric detection, and lateral flow assay.
期刊介绍:
The Official Journal of the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (IFCC)
Clinica Chimica Acta is a high-quality journal which publishes original Research Communications in the field of clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine, defined as the diagnostic application of chemistry, biochemistry, immunochemistry, biochemical aspects of hematology, toxicology, and molecular biology to the study of human disease in body fluids and cells.
The objective of the journal is to publish novel information leading to a better understanding of biological mechanisms of human diseases, their prevention, diagnosis, and patient management. Reports of an applied clinical character are also welcome. Papers concerned with normal metabolic processes or with constituents of normal cells or body fluids, such as reports of experimental or clinical studies in animals, are only considered when they are clearly and directly relevant to human disease. Evaluation of commercial products have a low priority for publication, unless they are novel or represent a technological breakthrough. Studies dealing with effects of drugs and natural products and studies dealing with the redox status in various diseases are not within the journal''s scope. Development and evaluation of novel analytical methodologies where applicable to diagnostic clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine, including point-of-care testing, and topics on laboratory management and informatics will also be considered. Studies focused on emerging diagnostic technologies and (big) data analysis procedures including digitalization, mobile Health, and artificial Intelligence applied to Laboratory Medicine are also of interest.
