CoNi-RGO and NiCo 2 S 4 -ZIF/g-C 3 N 4 signal amplified electrochemical immunosensors for sensitive detection of CYFRA 21-1.

Herein, a signal amplified electrochemical immunosensor for the sensitive detection of cytokeratin 19 fragments (CYFRA 21-1) in human serum was discussed. The CoNi-RGO was used as a substrate for the sensor with excellent specific surface area and strong electrical conductivity, which enables more efficient attachment of antibodies. The introduction of the bimetallic sulfide NiCo ₂ S ₄ composite ZIF material provides strong catalytic performance for the immunosensor. It is worth noting that, in addition to these satisfactory advantages, these two materials also show amazing signal amplification capacity. When the immunosensor works, the increase in electrical impedance decreases the electron transfer rate, making the electrochemical signal change obvious. The signal enhancement of immunosensors was emphasized by the marker during construction, and the experimental results were satisfactory. The proposed signal enhanced immunosensor had a linear relationship in the range of 0.001-10 ng/mL for CYFRA 21-1, and the minimum detection limit was 0.33 pg/mL for △I = 95.22 + 23.27 lg c. This demonstrates that the electrochemical immunosensor we constructed is successful and has a great developing potential.
