Early stage diagnosis of breast cancer by monitoring the proteins in human biological fluids is the best method and the first section toward efficient therapy, delaying metastasis and hindrance mortality. In this study, graphite ink was synthesized and combined with CA 15-3 antibody in order to develop a novel immunosensor for detection of CA 15-3, breast cancer biomarker. Conductivity of bioink was examined by designing various conductive patterns on paper using a rollerball pen. Electrochemical behavior of engineered immunosensor was evaluated through employing sensitive diagnostic technique, DPV (differential pulse voltammetry). Under optimal conditions, the linear concentration range and low limit of quantification (LLOQ) of designed immunosensor was 15-250 U/mL and 15 U/mL, respectively. The process was successfully applied to assay of breast cancer biomarker (CA15-3) in unprocessed human plasma specimens.
