Abstract

In this paper, we demonstrate an electrochemical method for detection of the heart failure biomarker, N-terminal prohormone brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP). The approach is based on a paper electrode assembly and a metalloimmunoassay; it is intended for eventual integration into a home-use sensor. Sensing of NT-proBNP relies on the formation of a sandwich immunoassay and electrochemical quantification of silver nanoparticle (AgNP) labels attached to the detection antibodies (Abs). There are four important outcomes reported in this article. First, compared to physisorption of the detection Abs on the AgNP labels, a 27-fold increase in signal is observed when a heterobifunctional cross-linker is used to facilitate this labeling. Second, the assay is selective in that it does not cross-react with other cardiac natriuretic peptides. Third, the assay forms in undiluted human serum (though the electrochemical analysis is carried out in buffer). Finally, and most important, the assay is able to detect NT-proBNP at concentrations between 0.58 and 2.33 nM. This performance approaches the critical NT-proBNP concentration threshold often used by physicians for risk stratification purposes: ∼0.116 nM.

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
