Hybridization chain reaction (HCR) strategy has been well developed for the fabrication of various biosensing platforms for signal amplification. Herein, a novel enzyme-free and label-free ultrasensitive electrochemical DNA biosensing platform for the detection of target DNA and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) was firstly proposed, in which three auxiliary DNA probes were ingeniously designed to construct the dendritic DNA concatamer via HCR strategy and used as hexaammineruthenium(III) chloride (RuHex) carrier for signal amplification. With the developed dendritic DNA concatamer-based signal amplification strategy, the DNA biosensor could achieve an ultrasensitive electrochemical detection of DNA and ATP with a superior detection limit as low as 5 aM and 20 fM, respectively, and also demonstrate a high selectivity for DNA and ATP detection. The currently proposed dendritic DNA concatamer opens a promising direction to construct ultrasensitive DNA biosensing platform for biomolecular detection in bioanalysis and clinical biomedicine, which offers the distinct advantages of simplicity and cost efficiency owing to no need of any kind of enzyme, chemical modification or labeling.
杂交链式反应(HCR)策略已被广泛开发,用于构建各种用于信号放大的生物传感平台。本文首次提出了一种新颖的无酶和无标记的超灵敏电化学 DNA 生物传感平台,用于检测靶 DNA 和三磷酸腺苷(ATP),其中巧妙设计了三个辅助 DNA 探针,通过 HCR 策略构建树枝状 DNA 串,并用作六氨合钌(III)氯化物(RuHex)载体用于信号放大。基于开发的基于树枝状 DNA 串的信号放大策略,该 DNA 生物传感器能够实现对 DNA 和 ATP 的超灵敏电化学检测,检测限分别低至 5 aM 和 20 fM,并且对 DNA 和 ATP 的检测具有高选择性。目前提出的树枝状 DNA 串为构建用于生物分析和临床生物医学中生物分子检测的超灵敏 DNA 生物传感平台开辟了一个有前景的方向,由于不需要任何酶、化学修饰或标记,因此具有简单和成本效益高的明显优势。
