A platform that provides a fundamental tool to understand protein behaviors by a simple real‐time electrical readout is demonstrated. Observing the temperature dependence of protein activity as well as the humidity‐sensitive protein activity of a prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) monoclonal antibody receptor (MAbs), as well as PSA–MAbs receptor complexes, provides a stability curve for the protein and a humidity dependence of their activity.
