Quantitative analysis of the molecular binding between Αβ1 − 42 and KLVFF-functionalized MNPs as a function of the numerical ratio Αβ1 − 42: MNP (green histograms). As a control it is shown the binding ratio between bare MNPs (grey histograms). Aβ1 − 42 concentrations for the experiments with 1:1 and 1:3 ratios – 600 pg/ml and 200 pg/ml, respectively – are usually found in clinical samples. 600 pg/ml (1:1 ratio in the figure) in particular is considered the cut-off value for early AD diagnosis [39, 40]
