Electrochemical properties of hydroxyapatite immobilization material for potential cytosensor fabrication by Dennis Adusei, Bernard O. Asimeng, Francis D. Krampa, Elvis K. Tiburu

“…The SHAp/PEDOT: PSS blend was used to modify a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) by drop-casting, followed by seeding of pheochromocytoma (PC 12) and human embryonic kidney (HEK)-293T cells on the modified SPCE to record the EP using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Red blood cells (RBCs) were used as a control. Results: The CV analysis showed lower peak currents for HEK 293T (50 µA) and PC 12 (120 µA) compared to the RBC (230 µA). …”
