A new method to amplify colorimetric signals of paper-based nanobiosensors for simple and sensitive pancreatic cancer biomarker detection

A low-cost, sensitive, and disposable paper-based immunosensor for instrument-free colorimetric detection of pancreatic cancer biomarker PEAK1 was reported for the first time by capitalizing the catalytic properties of gold nanoparticles in colour dye degradation. This simple signal amplification me...

Description
Summary:A low-cost, sensitive, and disposable paper-based immunosensor for instrument-free colorimetric detection of pancreatic cancer biomarker PEAK1 was reported for the first time by capitalizing the catalytic properties of gold nanoparticles in colour dye degradation. This simple signal amplification method enhances the detection sensitivity by about 10 fold. Catalytic properties of gold nanoparticles in colour dye degradation are utilized to amplify colorimetric detection signals of a low-cost paper-based immunosensor for instrument-free detection of pancreatic cancer biomarker PEAK1.
