Alzheimer's diagnosis beyond cerebrospinal fluid: Probe-Free Detection of Tau P...
Arjum, Ajith Mohan; Deshpande, Sudhaunsh; Dunlop, Tom; Norman, Beth; Oliviera, Daniela; Vulpe, Georgeta; Moreira, Felismina; Sharma, SanjivPhosphorylated Tau proteins are promising biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of Alzheimer's disease. This study presents a novel voltametric sensor using a vanadium MXene polydopamine (VxPDA) redox active composite and a Tau-441-specific polyaniline molecularly imprinted polymer (PANI MIP) for the sensitive detection of Tau-441 in interstitial fluid (ISF) and plasma. The VxPDA/PANI MIP sensor demonstrat...
A cork based substrate coupled with artificial antibodies for point-of-care det...
Correia, Bárbara; Oliveira, Daniela; Vulpe, Georgeta; Tavares, Ana P. M.; Sales, M. Goreti F.; Duarte, Abel J.; Sharma, Sanjiv; Moreira, Felismina T. C.Whilst single use point of care testing (PoCT) devices have transformed healthcare globally, there are major concerns over their environmental consequences. These concerns could be addressed by employing devices made of environmentally friendly materials. Herein, we report on the use of cork based PoCT devices. Cork is known to be fully biodegradable and can be easily recycled without producing toxic residues. ...
