    Abstract:
    A comparative study is reported where folic acid (FA) and boronic acid (BA) based cytosensors and their analytical performances in cancer cell detection were analyzed by using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) method. Cytosensors were fabricated using self-assembled monolayer principle by modifying Au electrode with cysteamine (Cys) and immobilization of ferrocene cored polyamidiamine dendrimers second generation (Fc-PAMAM (G2)), after which electrodes were modified with FA and BA. Au/Fc-PAMAM(G2)/FA and Au/Fc-PAMAM(G2)/BA based cytosensors showed extremely good analytical performances in cancer cell detection with linear range of 1×102 to 1×106cellsml-1, detection limit of 20cellsml-1 with incubation time of 20min for FA based electrode, and for BA based electrode detection limit was 28cellsml-1 with incubation time of 10min. Next to excellent analytical performances, cytosensors showed high selectivity towards cancer cells which was demonstrated in selectivity study using human embryonic kidney 293 cells (HEK 293) as normal cells and Au/Fc-PAMAM(G2)/FA electrode showed two times better selectivity than BA modified electrode. These cytosensors are promising for future applications in cancer cell diagnosis.
