The selective and sensitive sensing of neurochemicals is essential to decipher in-brain chemistry underlying brain pathophysiology. The recent development of flexible and multifunctional polymer-based fibers has been shown useful in recording and modulating neural activities, primarily electrical ones. In this study, we were able to realize fiber-based neurochemical sensing with high sensitivity and selectivity. We achieved a generalizable method to couple aptamers, a type of synthetic receptors on the carbon composites within fibers, as microsensors for highly selective neurochemical detection. Such an aptamer-coupled microelectrode fiber sensor (apta-mu FS) enables simple, label free, and sensitive dopamine (DA) detection down to 5 nM with ultrahigh specificity across major interferents. We succeeded in monitoring DA selectively within the living brain using our apta-mu FS. We further showed the proof-of concept of using microelectronic fiber-based toolsets to target neural pathways across electrical and chemical modalities. In summary, such fiber-based toolsets hold great potential to advance multimodal mechanistic understanding of brain pathophysiology.
