Abstract(s)
Breast cancer is a disease that affects millions of people in the world and a constant search for the reduction of its incidence is necessary. If a global cure is not possible, methods must be developed to allow an early diagnosis, thereby reducing the level of disease progression. In the present study, we aim to obtain a molecularly-imprinted polymer (MIP) for the detection of a breast cancer biomarker (CA15-3). The imprinted sites are generated by the electropolymerization of pyrrole, yielding a conducting polymer.
