Dual-readout immunosensor constructed based on brilliant photoelectrochemical and photothermal effect of polymer dots for sensitive detection of sialic acid

A delicate dual-readout immunosensor based on tetraphenylporphyrin-polymer dots (TPP-Pdots) with brilliant photoelectrochemical and photothermal performance was first successfully fabricated for the ultrasensitive detection of sialic acid (SA). Herein, TPP-Pdots with good biocompatibility, extraordinary light-harvesting ability and excellent photothermal conversion efficiency was used to capture SA antibody as dual-functional bioprobe for...
