A high-performance sensing layer based on dual-template molecularly imprinted polymer (DMIP) was fabricated and successfully applied for one-by-one detection of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) as lung cancer biomarkers. The DMIP sensor showed high sensitivity and good stability, making it a promising method for sensing of AFP and CEA in serum samples.
A high-performance sensing layer based on dual-template molecularly imprinted polymer (DMIP) was fabricated and successfully applied for one-by-one detection of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) as lung cancer biomarkers. The plastic antibodies of AFP and CEA were created into the electropolymerized polypyrrole (PPy) on a fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) electrode. Raman spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) tests were performed to pursue the formation and characterization of the sensing layer. Methyl orange (MO) increased the conductivity of PPy and induced the formation of MO doped PPy (PPy-MO) rectangular-shaped nanotubes. Using impedimetric detection, the rebinding of the template antigens was evaluated, the charge transfer resistance increased as the concentration of AFP and CEA increased. The linear dynamic ranges of 5-10(4) and 10-10(4) pg mL(-1) and detection limits of 1.6 and 3.3 pg mL(-1) were obtained for CEA and AFP, respectively. Given satisfactory results in the determination of AFP and CEA in the human serum samples, high sensitivity, and good stability of DMIP sensor made it a promising method for sensing of AFP and CEA in serum samples.
