An Organic Electrochemical Transistor-Based Sensor for IgG Levels Detection of Relevance in SARS-CoV-2 Infections

Organic electrochemical transistors appear as an alternative for relatively low-cost, easy-to operate biosensors due to their intrinsic amplification. Herein, we present the fabrication, characterization, and validation of an immuno-detection system based on commercial sensors using gold electrodes...

Descrição
Resumo:Organic electrochemical transistors appear as an alternative for relatively low-cost, easy-to operate biosensors due to their intrinsic amplification. Herein, we present the fabrication, characterization, and validation of an immuno-detection system based on commercial sensors using gold electrodes where no additional surface treatment is performed on the gate electrode. The steady-state response of these sensors has been studied by analyzing different semiconductor organic channels in order to optimize the biomolecular detection process and its the application to monitoring human IgG levels due to SARS-CoV-2 infections. Detection levels of up to tens of µg mL−1 with sensitivities up to 13.75% [µg/mL]−1, concentration ranges of medical relevance in seroprevalence studies, have been achieved.
