The invention relates to a modified gold-based electrode designed for the detection of recombinant human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) protein. The electrode functions as a biosensor enabling ultrasensitive detection using electrochemical techniques.
The electrode surface is functionalized with a chemical linker and monoclonal anti-HPV-16 antibodies, ensuring high selectivity and sensitivity. The developed biosensor allows rapid, low-cost analysis with measurement times reduced to minutes.
The solution may serve as an alternative or complementary diagnostic tool to molecular methods, enabling early detection of HPV-16 infections associated with cervical cancer and head and neck cancers.
Application:
- HPV-16 infection diagnostics,
- Early cancer biomarker detection,
- Point-of-care biosensing platforms.
