Title: Cobalt doped cerium oxide/multi walled carbon nanotubes nanocomposites based immunosensor for the electrochemical detection of CA 125

Abstract:

Herein, a label free electrochemical immunosensor was prepared to detect ovarian cancer by the cancer antigen CA 125 by using cobalt doped cerium oxide/multi walled carbon nanotubes (Co-CeO2/MWCNTs) nanocomposites on a gold electrode. The nanocomposites were synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Each step of fabrication of the immunosensor was analyzed by using electrochemical techniques, cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) of [Fe(CN)6]3-/4-. Under the optimal conditions, the fabricated electrochemical immunosensor exhibited 0.1 UmL-1 the limit of detection for dynamic range of 1 UmL-1 to 100 UmL-1 of CA 125 concentration. The fabricated immunosensor has good selectivity, stability, and reproducibility. Moreover, it showed excellent CA 125 detection performance in human serum for clinical applications and research.
