n general, obesity is associated with significant disturbances in appetite and metabolic control system. Both neuropeptide hormones
(leptin) and monoamine neurotransmitters have been recognized as obesity markers due to their essential roles in the regulation
of food intake and energy expenditure. Here, we present the development of a leptin nanosensor as a multi-assay for obesity markers
found in blood to create a personalized medical system. We have reported that nanowell array (NWA) can enhance electrochemical
detection of molecular binding events by controlling the binding sites of the captured molecules. Using NWA biosensor based
amperometric analysis; we have detected biological macromolecules such as DNA, protein or aptamers at low concentrations. These
results suggested that wafer-scale NWA immunosensor will be useful for biosensing applications because their interface response is
appropriate for detecting molecular binding events
