Enzyme-free “on-off-on” photoelectrochemical biosensor based on cascaded quadratic amplification strategy for miRNA 141 detection
摘要： MicroRNAs (miRNAs) assay is of great significance for early diagnosis of diseases, so an enzyme-free “on-off-on” PEC biosensor has been developed for sensitive miRNA 141 determination. Manganese-doped cadmium sulfide coupled with zinc sulfide quantum dots (Mn:CdS@ZnS QDs) and manganese porphyrin (MnPP) have been used as photoelectric material and photosensitizer, respectively. And a high photocurrent of approximately 70.0 μA has been obtained. Cascaded quadratic amplification strategy has been applied in the system. Mn:CdS@ZnS QDs was characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Photoelectrochemical and electrochemical technologies were used to monitor the fabrication process of the biosensor. The sensing platform exhibits recommendable stability and good selectivity, miRNA 141 can be accurately quantified with a linear range of 1.00 × 10-14 to 1.00 × 10-8 mol·L-1 and the detection limit of 3.30 fmol·L-1. This method provides promising potential to explore sensitive detection models for various biological molecules.

DNA branched junctions induced the enhanced fluorescence recovery of FAM-labeled probes on rGO for detecting Pb2+
摘要： The reduced graphene oxide (rGO) could strongly adsorb and quench the fluorescence of dye-labeled single-stranded DNA (ssDNA); thus, it is widely applied in fluorescent sensors. However, these sensors may suffer from a limited sensitivity due to the low fluorescence recovery when adding the complementary DNA (cDNA) sequence. In this work, the powerful DNA branched junctions were constructed to improve the fluorescence recovery of FAM-labeled probe on rGO. In the presence of target Pb2+, the ribonucleotide (rA) in the substrate was cleaved specifically and the catalytic hairpin assembly of three metastable hairpins was further initiated, accompanied by the formation of DNA branched junctions. Then, the liberated Pb2+ could be recyclable. Impressively, the DNA branched junctions not only hybridize with the FAM-labeled probes with a high efficiency, but also are significantly undesirable for the rGO. Thus, a high fluorescence recovery of FAM-labeled probe on rGO was expected. The integration of the high fluorescence recovery and dual-cycle signal amplification endows the sensing strategy with a good performance for Pb2+ detection, including low detection limit (0.17 nM), good selectivity, and satisfactory practical applicability. The proposed DNA branched junctions offer a novel avenue to improve the fluorescence recovery of the dye-labeled probes on rGO for biological analysis.
