Abstrakt: Biosensors have become promising alternatives to the conventional methods in early identification of diseases. However, translation of biosensors from lab to commercial products have challenges such as complex sensor fabrications and complicated detection, and inadequate sensitivity and selectivity. Here, we introduce simple and low-cost fabricated conductometric sensors based on high resistivity silicon wafers (HR-Si) which can be adopted to functionalise with both natural and synthetic antibodies in detecting five biomarkers including interleukin-6, C reactive protein, cardiac troponin I, brain natriuretic peptide, and N terminal-probrain natriuretic peptide. All five biomarkers show selective and rapid (10 min sample incubation and <1 min of reading time) detection in both media of phosphate buffer saline and saliva with the detection limits lower than that of reported healthy levels in saliva. This work highlights the versatility of HR-Si sensors in functionalisation of both natural and synthetic antibodies in sensitive and selective biomarker detection. As these miniaturised conductometric biosensors can be easily modified with on-demand biomaterials to detect corresponding target biomarkers, they enable a new category of compact point-of-care medical devices.
