Abstract (EN): In this work, a highly sensitive electrochemical immunosensor for the determination of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) is reported. A miniaturized dual working electrode (WE) screen-printed electrochemical cell was employed as the transducer. The biosensing approach consisted of a sandwich format in which the specific immune-recognition event was detected using alkaline phosphatase as enzymatic label and a 3indoxyl phosphate/silver mixture as substrate. The analytical signal was based on the voltammetric stripping of the enzymatically deposited silver. The second WE functioned as a negative control. The described methodology achieved a low limit of detection (0.096 ng mL(-1); 0.192 fmol in a 50 mu L sample) in a 125-min assay (< 10 min hands-on time). The applicability of the proposed immunosensor was successfully verified through the analysis of spiked urine samples.
