Advancements in health care monitoring demand a rapid, accurate and reliable early diagnosis of "Heart Attack" (acute myocardial infarction) with an objective to develop a cost-effective, rapid and label-free point of care diagnostic test kit for the detection of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) on paper-based multi-frequency impedimetric transducers. Paper based sensing platforms were developed by integrating carboxyl group functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) with antibodies of cardiac troponin I (anti-cTnI) biomarker and was characterized using Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). Various concentrations of cTnI with anti cTnI were studied as a function of impedance change. The suitability of the proposed immunosensor is demonstrated by spiking cTnI in blood serum samples. The limit of detection (LoD) and sensitivity of the proposed sensor was determined to be 0.05 ng/mL and 1.85 mΩ/ng/mL respectively, with a response time of ~1 min. The shelf life of the fabricated sensor was nearly 30 days. The rapid response, very low detection limit, and cost effectiveness offer a portable platform to detect cTnI in blood serum samples. The proposed immunosensor, therefore, offers an affordable healthcare diagnostic platform in resource limited areas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
