摘要
A 2-dimensional tungsten disulfide-acetylene black (WS2-AB) composite is synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method to achieve excellent electrochemical properties for applications as a DNA biosensor. The biosensor is fabricated based on the Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) and WS2-AB composite modified electrode, which subsequently is used to couple with a capture probe by an Au-S bond, then modified with target DNA, auxiliary DNA and bio-H1-bio-H2 (H1-H2) to perform hybridization chain reaction for signal amplification. Herein, two DNA hairpins H1 and H2 are opened by the recognition probe. The nicked double helices from hybridization chain reaction are used to immobilize horseradish peroxidase enzymes via biotin-avidin reaction, which produces signal-amplification detection of target DNA through the catalytic reaction of the hydrogenperoxide + hydroquinone system. Under optimum conditions, the as-prepared biosensor shows a good linear relationship between the current value and logarithm of the target DNA concentration ranging from 0.001 pM to 100 pM and a detection limit as low as 0.12 fM. Moreover, the fabricated biosensor exhibits good selectivity to differentiate the one-base mismatched DNA sequence. This work will open a pathway for ultrasensitive detection of other biorecognition events and gene-related diseases based on layered WS2-AB and hybridization chain reaction.
