Since carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) is a significant biomarker for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer, a sensitive sandwich-type immunosensor was proposed with an epoxy functionalized covalent organic framework (EP-COF) as the antibody carrier and an electroactive COF as the signal amplification probe for the sensitive detection of CA 19-9. The flexible covalent linkage between the epoxy-functionalized EP-COF and the antibodies was employed to improve the dynamics of the antigen-antibody interaction significantly. Meanwhile, AuNPs@COF with abundant electroactive sites enhanced the current response of the immunoreaction significantly. After optimizing the incubation time and concentration of the antibody, CA 19-9 was quantitatively detected by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) based on the sensitive sandwich-type immunosensor with a low detection limit of 0.0003 U/mL and a wide linear range of 0.0009-100 U/mL. The electrochemical immunosensor exhibits high specificity, stability and repeatability, and it provides a feasible and efficient method for the pathologic analysis and treatment of tumor markers.

Transferrin (TRF) is the main iron-containing protein in plasma, responsible for carrying iron from digestive absorption and released from the erythrocyte degradation. The plasma TRF levels can be used to diagnose anemia and monitor treatment. Herein, a sandwich type biosensor was developed for the sensitive and efficient TRF detection utilizing the affinity of boronic acid and specific recognition of antibody.

The human Tau protein stands for one of the most conspicuous and crucial hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis, along with other tauopathies. However, the assay for direct detection of tiny Tau protein concentrations in human samples continues to pose a significant challenge for the early diagnosis of AD. Thus, an amplification-based strategy is required.

Quantum dot composite colloids (QDCCs), submicron-sized colloidal particles incorporating multiple QDs, have been employed as signal reporters. Multiple QDs were encapsulated within the hydrophobic pockets of amphiphilic polyethylenimine derivative (amPEI), forming amPEI-QDCCs with a hydrodynamic size of approximately 100 nm. Fluorescence (FL) correlation spectroscopy revealed that each QDCC encapsulates an average of 20 QDs.
