Point-of-care devices have attracted a huge interest by the scientific community because of the valuable potentiality for rapid diagnosis and precision medicine through cost-effective and easy-to-use devices for on-site measurement by unskilled personnel.

Abstract
Point-of-care devices have attracted a huge interest by the scientific community because of the valuable potentiality for rapid diagnosis and precision medicine through cost-effective and easy-to-use devices for on-site measurement by unskilled personnel. Herein, we reported a smartphone-assisted electrochemical device consisted of a screen-printed electrode modified with carbon black nanomaterial and a commercially available smartphone potentiostat i.e. EmStat3 Blue, for sensitive detection of tyrosine. Once optimized the conditions, tyrosine was detected in standard solutions by square wave voltammetry, achieving a linear range comprised between 30 and 500 mu M, with a detection limit equal to 4.4 mu M. To detect tyrosine in serum, the interference of another amino acid i.e. tryptophan was hindered using a sample treatment with an extraction cartridge. The agreement of results analyzing serum samples with HPLC reference method and with the developed smart sensing system demonstrated the suitability of this smartphone-assisted sensing tool for cost-effective and rapid analyses of tyrosine in serum samples.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
