Innovative Peptide-Based Plasmonic Optical Biosensor for the Determination of Cholesterol by Ana Lia Bernardo, Anne Parra, Virginia Cebrián, Óscar Ahumada, Sergio Oddi, Enrico Dainese

“…In the present study, a novel strategy for cholesterol quantification was developed, leveraging a plasmonic optical readout in conjunction with a highly specific cholesterol-binding peptide (C-pept) as a biorecognition element, anchored on a functionalized silica substrate. The resulting biosensor exhibited an exceptionally low detection limit of 21.95 µM and demonstrated a linear response in the 10–200 µM range. …”
