Research on flexible biosensors is mostly focused on their use in obtaining information on physical signals. Consequently, there are hardly any studies on using flexible electronics for detecting biomolecules and biomarkers that cause diseases. In this study, we propose a flexible, three-dimensional carbon nanoweb based aptamer sensor to detect the platelet-induced growth factor, which is an oncogenic biomarker. As a template for the 3D structure, poly(acrylonitrile) nanowebs were synthesized using a facile electrospinning process. The PAN nanowebs were then subjected to chemical vapor deposition with copper powder. This was followed by Cu etching to generate carbon protrusions on the web surface. As an active site, PDGF-B binding aptamer was introduced on the 3DCNW surface to form biosensor electrodes. The 3DCNW-based aptasensor exhibited excellent sensitivity (down to 1.78 fM), with high selectivity, reversibility, and stabilit to PDGF-BB. |
