An antifouling electrochemical sensor based on a U-shaped four-in-one peptide and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) for vancomycin detection in fresh goat milk

Nonspecific adsorption of biomolecules (notably, proteins) and bacteria from unsterilized food may occur on sensor surfaces, which is still a challenge for food safety sensing. To achieve sensitive detection of unsterilized raw-food materials, in this study, a U-shaped four-in-one peptide with the sequence Ac-FLKLLKKLL-DOPA
