Abstract
Fibrinogen as a major inflammation marker and blood coagulation factor has a direct impact on the health of humanity. The variations in fibrinogen content lead to risky conditions such as bleeding and cardiovascular diseases. So, accurate methods for monitoring of this glycoprotein are of high importance. The conventional methods, such as the Clauss method, are time consuming and require highly specialized expert analysts. The development of fast, simple, easy to use, and inexpensive methods is highly desired. In this way, biosensors have gained outstanding attention since they offer means for performing analyses at the points-of-care using self-testing devices, which can be applied outside of clinical laboratories or hospital. This review indicates that different electrochemical and optical sensors have been successfully implemented for thedetection of fibrinogen under normal levels of fibrinogen in plasma. The biosensors for thedetection of fibrinogen have been designed based on the quartz crystal microbalance, field-effect transistor, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, amperometry, surface plasmon resonance, localized surface plasmon resonance, and colorimetrictechniques. Also, this review demonstrates the utility of the application of nanoparticles in different detection techniques.
