Abstract
Electrochemical paper-based analytical devices (ePADs) offer an innovative, low-cost, and environmentally friendly approach for real-time diagnostics. In this study, we developed a functional all-inkjet paper-based electrochemical immunosensor using gold (Au) printed ink to detect salivary cortisol. Covalent binding of the cortisol monoclonal antibody onto the printed Au surface was achieved through electrodeposition of 4-carboxymethylaniline (CMA), with ethanolamine passivation to prevent non-specific binding. The ePAD exhibited a linear response within the physiological cortisol range (5-20 ng/mL), with sensitivities of 25, 23, and 19 Ω·ng/mL and R2 values of 0.995, 0.979, and 0.99, respectively. Additionally, interference studies against tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) yielded excellent results. This novel ePAD, fabricated using inkjet printing technology on paper, simplifies the process, reduces environmental impact, and lowers fabrication costs.
期刊介绍:
Micromachines (ISSN 2072-666X) is an international, peer-reviewed open access journal which provides an advanced forum for studies related to micro-scaled machines and micromachinery. It publishes reviews, regular research papers and short communications. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced.
