Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Inspired by the diagnostic potential of micromotor technology, this study presents a novel magnetic micromotor-based electrochemical biosensing approach for the sensitive detection of spike (S) protein in microliter-scale sample volumes. Tubular MoS2/Ni magnetic micromotors are externally modified with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to enable the covalent immobilization of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) as the capture probe, leveraging its intrinsic recognition capability and resilience to viral mutations for future-proof detection. The inner Ni layer provides biocompatible magnetic propulsion while simplifying washing and handling steps.
