Abstract

Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), a 37 kDa glycoprotein hormone, is a key diagnostic marker of pregnancy and has been cited as an important biomarker in relation to cancerous tumors found in the prostate, ovaries and bladder.A novel chemically-modified epitaxial graphene diagnostic sensor has been...
