Effect of Surface Modified Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM) on Detection Sensitivity for Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)
Summary
QCM electrodes roughened by electroplating were tested for prostate specific antigen, a prostate cancer marker. The longer the plating, the larger the frequency response: about 39 Hz on the plain crystal, 213 Hz after 30 minutes and 483 Hz after 60 minutes, a simple way to raise the mass sensitivity of the detector.
Summary written by the openQCM team. The original abstract is on the publisher’s page.
