Descripción
Sumario:his work reports the first electrochemicalimmunoassay involving magnetic microbeads (MBs) forthe determination of galectin-3 (Gal-3), a -galactosidase-binding lectin that acts as mediator of heart failure (HF).MBs-captured sandwich-type immune complexes andamperometric detection at disposable screen-printed car-bon electrodes were used. The immunoplatform showed adetection limit of 8.3 pgmL 1, good reproducibility, andexcellent selectivity. The endogenous concentration ofGal-3 in human plasma from HF patients was determinedwith results in agreement with those obtained usingELISA. The multiplexing feasibility of the developedimmunoplatform was demonstrated for the simultaneousdetermination of Gal-3 and N-terminal pro-brain natriu-retic peptide (NT-proBNP)
