Article Abstract
A plug-based microfluidic system based on the principle of the light-addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS) is proposed. The LAPS is a semiconductor-based chemical sensor, which has a free addressability of the measurement point on the sensing surface. By combining a microfluidic device and LAPS, ion sensing can be performed anywhere inside the microfluidic channel. In this study, the sample solution to be measured was introduced into the channel in a form of a plug with a volume in the range of microliters. Taking advantage of the light-addressability, the position of the plug could be monitored and pneumatically controlled. With the developed system, the pH value of a plug with a volume down to 400 nL could be measured. As an example of plug-based operation, two plugs were merged in the channel, and the pH change was detected by differential measurement.

Adenosine (AD) is integral to numerous physiological processes, thereby necessitating its sensitive and selective detection for clinical diagnostic applications. This study introduces an innovative aptasensor utilizing a light-addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS) for the accurate detection of AD. The LAPS platform capitalizes on its light-addressable properties and stable potentiometric performance to monitor potential variations resulting from the specific interaction between AD and its corresponding aptamer (AD-Apt).

A novel carbon-based light-addressable potentiometric aptasensor (C-LAPS) was constructed for detection low-density lipoprotein (LDL) in serum. Carboxylated TiC MXene @reduced graphene oxide (C-MXene@rGO) was used as interface and o-phenylenediamine functionalized nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots (OPD@NGQDs) as the photoelectric conversion element. The photosensitive layers composed of OPD@NGQDs/C-MXene@rGO exhibit superior photoelectric conversion efficiency and excellent biocompatibility, which contribute to an improved response signal.

Glypican-3 (GPC3) is exclusively overexpressed in most Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissue but not in normal liver tissue, making it a promising biomarker for the precise detection of HCC. In this paper, a label-free light-addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS) decorated by platinumpalladium-hemin-reduced graphene oxide nanocomposites (PtPd@H-rGO NCs) was constructed for determination of GPC3. The GPC3 aptamer (GPC3) and PtPd@H-rGO NCs were modified on the surface of silicon-based LAPS chip to build sensitive unit of LAPS system.

Disruption and dysregulation of cellular calcium channel function can lead to diseases such as ischemic stroke, heart failure, and arrhythmias. Corresponding calcium channel drugs typically require preliminary efficacy evaluations using in vitro models such as cells and simulated tissues before clinical testing. However, traditional detection and evaluation methods often encounter challenges in long-term continuous monitoring and lack calcium specificity.

A light-addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS) is a semiconductor-based sensor platform for sensing and imaging of various chemical species. Being a potentiometric sensor, no faradaic current flows through its sensing surface, and no electrochemical reaction takes place in the course of LAPS measurement. In this study, a four-electrode system is proposed, in which a LAPS is combined with the conventional three-electrode electrochemical system.
