Abstract

A method for detection of cancer-associated protein D-NFATc1 in serum using nanowire (NW) biosensor based on field-effect nanotransistor is developed. Field-effect nanotransistor was fabricated on the basis of «silicon-on-insulator» structures. For the biospecific detection of target protein, the NW surface was modified with aptamers against the target protein. Using the 3 um-NW enabled to obtain stable source-drain characteristics and to register D-NFATc1 in serum at concentration of 2.5 x 1014 M in the mode of drain-source current vs. gate voltage characteristics measurements. Data collection in the mode of drain-source current vs. gate voltage characteristics measurements was carried out with the use of high-speed data collection system running TURBO NBS software.
