This work describes the preparation of a reusable electrochemical immunosensor for detection of C-reactive protein (CRP), based in modified carbon electrode with reduced graphene oxide and polytyramine as strategy for anchoring the anti-CRP probe. This immunosensor was able to distinguish different concentrations of CRP target in human serum, by differential pulse voltammetry, showing a linear response from 1.09 to 100 μg L À 1. The performance of the immunosensor allowed its application in four consecutive assays, without activity loss. Analyses by atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy corroborate with voltammetric analysis. The immunosensor showed selectivity, stability and reusability, being a promising platform for point-of-care quantification of CRP.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
