Abstract

We have developed immuno-pillar devices for rapid and easy-to-use immunoassay, but to improve the speed of assay (5-10 min) and the detection sensitivity (nM-pM level) has still remained as major problems toward the clinical applications of immuno-pillar devices. We report here the second-generation immuno-pillar devices with faster assay within 2 min and pM-fM detection sensitivity. New devices enable us to apply them to the clinical trials for the detection of multiple biomarkers (monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1), angiotensinogen (AGT), liver-type fatty acid binding protein (L-FABP)) of diabetic nephropathy in human urine without any pretreatments.
