Abstract
We report the first turn-on lanthanide luminescent probe for time-gated detection of liver cancer biomarker β-glucuronidase. This innovative assay offers unprecedented rapidity, simplicity, and sensitivity, requiring minimal sample volumes and boasting exceptionally low detection limits (LOD of 40 ng/mL). The protocol was simplified and made "instrument-free" by developing TbCh gel-immobilized paper sensors and measuring the luminescence response after enzyme addition using ImageJ software.
期刊介绍:
Chemistry—An Asian Journal is an international high-impact journal for chemistry in its broadest sense. The journal covers all aspects of chemistry from biochemistry through organic and inorganic chemistry to physical chemistry, including interdisciplinary topics.
Chemistry—An Asian Journal publishes Full Papers, Communications, and Focus Reviews.
A professional editorial team headed by Dr. Theresa Kueckmann and an Editorial Board (headed by Professor Susumu Kitagawa) ensure the highest quality of the peer-review process, the contents and the production of the journal.
Chemistry—An Asian Journal is published on behalf of the Asian Chemical Editorial Society (ACES), an association of numerous Asian chemical societies, and supported by the Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker (GDCh, German Chemical Society), ChemPubSoc Europe, and the Federation of Asian Chemical Societies (FACS).
