We demonstrate a label-free microfluidic immunosensor for early diagnostics of breast cancer (epidermal growth factor receptor or ErbB2) with a detection limit at the level of 1.0 fM. This device utilizes a uniquely structured immunoelectrode made of porous graphene foam (GF) modified by titanium dioxide nanofibers (nTiO2) at its surface. The antibody of ErbB2 acts as a detection probe immobilized on the GF-nTiO2 electrode via EDC-NHS chemistry. This immunosensor provides a high sensitivity of 43.7 kΩ/µM in a wide detection range, good stability, and fast response (3 min) for detection of ErbB2 antigen.
