OHCOs are prepared by the free radical polymerization reaction with agar, glycerol, and distinct ratios of cacao oil with glutaraldehyde (GA) crosslinker or methylene bisacrylamide (MBA) crosslinker. OHCOs are characterized via Fourier Transform Infrared Spec-troscopy (FT-IR), in different solvent environments and pHs. Electrochemical measurements are performed on OHCOs at the presence and absence of CA-125 antigen in serum medium. For the electrochemical sensor, two distinct linear ranges are determined as 0.00083-41.5 U/mL and 83.0-2075 U/mL. LOD and LOQ values are found as 0.34 mu U/mL and 1.01 mu U/mL, respectively. These results clearly show that OHCOs is a promising sensor material for the determination of CA-125 in human serum, sensitively.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessOvarian CancerCa-125Cacao OilElectrochemicalSensorArticle292Q2Q1WOS:000869095800003
