title: Impedimetric biosensor for early detection of cervical cancer.
abstract: An impedimetric biosensor based on PEGylated arginine functionalized magnetic nanoparticles for early detection of cervical cancer is reported. The cervical cancer cells could be selectively and sensitively detected down to 10 cells mL(-1) on the modified electrode, which is promising for advancement in clinical diagnosis and monitoring of tumors.
