Detection of IP-10 protein marker in undiluted blood serum via an electrochemical E-DNA scaffold sensor.

ABSTRACT

We describe an electrochemical analog of fluorescence polarization that supports the quantitative measurement of a specific protein, the chemokine IP-10, directly in undiluted blood serum. The sensor is label-free, wash-free, and electronic, suggesting it could support point-of-care detection of diagnostic proteins in largely unprocessed clinical samples.
