Aptameric Fluorescent Biosensors for the Detection of Liver Cancer
Author(s): Soumya Albert*
With a low 5-year survival rate after diagnosis, liver cancer is a major worldwide health concern. The current diagnostic approaches combining
ultrasound, CT scans, MRI, and biopsy have the limitation of finding detectable liver cancer when the tumour has already advanced to a specific
size, frequently resulting in late-stage diagnoses and dismal clinical treatment outcomes. To this purpose, there has been a great deal of interest
in developing highly sensitive and selective biosensors to examine relevant cancer biomarkers in the early stage diagnosis and provide suitable
treatment alternatives. Aptamers are a perfect recognition element among the many methods since they can bind to target molecules with great
affinity and specificity... Read More»
