A novel molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) sensor for rapid determination of cardiac troponin (cTnI) was established. Since it can bind to the template molecule cTnI specifically, it can be used to detect concentration of cTnI in serum without much sample pretreatment. What's more, the electrochemical signals depend on the concentration of template molecules. The synthetic sensor possesses advantages including simplicity, high specificity, low cost of preparation, good chemical and mechanical properties, sensitive and label‐free determination. The synthetic sensor shows good dynamic linearity at concentration range from 0.05 to 5.00 nM. The limit of detection (LOD) was found to be 0.027 nM. The detection time of whole process was within 5 minutes.
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.
