Abstract

Etched optical fiber immunosensors, with and without ITO nanodeposition, have been developed. The performance of these immunosensors has been assessed implementing an immunoassay. The sensitivity of the mmnunosensor increased by a factor of 4 with the ITO nanocoating, whereas the limit of the detection in both types of devices was 0.2 mg/L of antigens in solution.
