Abstract
Clinical diagnosis of diseases like cancer, requires rapid and ultrasensitive
screening methods. β-galactosidase (β-gal) is a glycoside hydrolase enzyme,
that is upregulated in senescent cells and primary ovarian cancer cells. It is
considered a significant biomarker for cellular senescence and primary
ovarian cancers. The current study demonstrates the designing of a bimetallic
metal-organic framework, (Fe, Cu)-MOF-919, as an ultrasensitive
electrochemical immunosensor for investigating ꞵ-galactosidase (β-gal)
enzyme on screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCE) using electrochemical
impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in human oral cancer plasma samples. The
sensor exhibited a linear response in a wide concentration of β-gal ranging
from 10 fg/mL to 1 ng/mL with a limit of detection (LOD) of 4.79 fg/mL and a
limit of quantification (LOQ) of 14.53 fg/mL. Furthermore, the sensor
confirmed outstanding selectivity and sensitivity against biologically
significant interfering molecules. Analyses of β-gal in human oral cancer
samples also demonstrated the potential of β-gal for clinical diagnosis. The
sensing approach holds substantial clinical relevance by being a promising
option for designing latent biosensors.
