A novel electrochemical immunosensor uses functional lipid vesicles (FLVs) immobilized on nanowells for protein detection. This method offers stable, non-aggregated vesicle adhesion and clear redox activity, enabling sensitive immunoassay measurements.

Area of Science:

  • Nanotechnology
  • Electrochemistry
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Developing sensitive and stable electrochemical immunosensors is crucial for early disease detection.
  • Existing immunosensor designs face challenges with antigen-antibody interaction and signal stability.
  • Functional lipid vesicles (FLVs) offer a promising platform for biosensing applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an original electrochemical immunosensor based on spontaneous FLV immobilization on a polymeric resist layer.
  • To investigate the stability and electrochemical properties of immobilized FLVs.
  • To demonstrate the feasibility of the developed immunosensor for detecting target proteins.

Main Methods:

  • Fabrication of a gold electrode with 200 nm nanowells using electron-beam lithography.
