Abstract
Lung cancer is the most common malignancy worldwide. Early diagnosis helps to reduce mortality and improve survival. Aptamers are widely used in cancer screening because of their high specificity, good stability and low cost. In this study, using the specific aptamer of lung cancer serum, the sandwich method colloidal gold test strip was prepared by isothermal amplification technique and the principle of nucleic acid hybridisation for the early diagnosis of lung cancer. The results showed that the test strip was positive in 8 patients with lung cancer, which was consistent with the actual cases. The test strip can accurately identify lung cancer patients. The concentration range of nucleic acid detection is 1 × 10−4 - 7 × 10−4 mol/L, and the detection limit is 0.67 mM. The test strip detection method has low cost and simple operation, and provides a reference for the development of home portable tumor early detection.
