title: Amperometric detection of antibodies in serum: performance of self-assembled cyclodextrin/cellulose polymer interfaces as antigen carriers.
abstract: A bifunctionalised carboxymethyl-cellulose polymer bearing adamantane units and an antigenic fragment forms a highly stable interfacial complex with a βCD-containing surface. This allows the highly sensitive detection of antibodies using an amperometric immunosensor.
