DNA Aptamer-based detection of prostate cancer
The use of aptamers in biosensing has attracted considerable attention as an alternative to antibodies because of their unique properties such as long-term stability, cost-effectiveness and adjustability to various applications....

Jan 15, 2016
This study reports the design and evaluation of a new synthetic receptor sensor based on the amalgamation of biomolecular recognition elements and molecular imprinting to overcome some of the challenges faced by conventional...
Label-Free Impedimetric Aptasensor with Antifouling Surface Chemistry
We here report the development of an aptamer based biosensor for the investigation of prostate specific antigen (PSA), a biomarker found in blood for prostate cancer (PCa), using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The...
General practitioner perception of prostate-specific antigen testing has improved, but more awareness of prostate cancer risk in younger patients is still awaited.
BACKGROUND: In 2006, a county-wide survey of general practitioners (GPs) in the United Kingdom (UK) identified a reluctance to refer younger men with abnormal prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels. Younger men have the most to...

Prostate-specific Antigen (PSA) is the biomarker that is used for prostate cancer (PCa) detection, although its lack of specificity results in a high rate of false-positives and many unnecessary biopsies. Therefore, there is a...
