A novel multi-array immunoassay device for tumor markers based on insert-plug model of piezoelectric immunosensor

Capabilities of Piezoelectric Immunosensors for Detecting Infections and for Early Clinical Diagnostics

“…Thus, a multi-sensor system is described designed for highly specific determination of several tumour markers in serum, such as -fetoprotein, CEA and carcinoma antigen, prostate-specific antigen (Zhang et al 2007). The possibility of the simultaneous determination of several tumour markers, a perfect combination of high speed and relatively low cost makes the approach attractive compared with traditional diagnostic laboratory methods.…”

Simultaneous determination of five-type hepatitis virus antigens in 5min using an integrated automatic electrochemical immunosensor array

“…Multilabel methods often need several labels, such as enzyme, fluorescence dye, radioisotope and quantum dot, which limits their application (Zhang et al, 2007;Wu et al, 2007a;Tang et al, 2009a,b,c;Tang and Ren, 2008;. Electrochemical multiple immunoassays, especially potentiometric assays, have many advantages including high-throughput systems, low assay cost, label-free, and simple instrumentation that enables device miniaturization and easy signal quantification (Wu et al, 2007b;Tang et al, 2007).…”

Piezoelectric immunosensor with gold nanoparticles enhanced competitive immunoreaction technique for quantification of aflatoxin B1

“…The general analytes of PQC immunosensor include cell, bacteria, proteins (including antibody or antigen), DNA and so on Fung and Wong, 2001;Zhang et al, 2007;Su et al, 2004). It has been shown that, though the method is suitable for sensitive measurements in air as well as in liquids, it is still difficult to measure the binding of small molecules in many cases (Masson et al, 1995;Deng et al, 2006).…”
