NEW PAPER OUT: Peptide-Based Fluorescent Biosensing System for the Detection of the Melanoma Biomarker S100B

Posted on By Lombardi Research Lab

Cutaneous melanoma, responsible for 80% of skin cancer mortality, presents urgent diagnostic challenges due to insufficient early detection methods. Current clinical methods rely on invasive biopsies, while noninvasive approaches primarily serve as adjunctive decision-support tools rather than definitive diagnostics. Here, a peptide-based fluorescent biosensing system was developed for the sensitive and rapid detection of S100B,…
