Electrochemical DNA biosensors are used widely due to its sensitivity, accessibility and accuracy. This electrochemical era in DNA biosensors took almost three decades for its development and application. Purine bases in the DNA namely guanine and adenine oxidizes at the working electrode during application of a positive potential. This property of DNA has been utilized in electrochemical DNA b...

in this study, we explained a nanobiosensor for dna sequence detection, featuring sequence specificity, cost efficiency, speed, and ease of use. without the need for labels or indicators, it may be ideal for the detection of biological agents. this review describes recent advances in electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis) with an emphasis on using nanoparticles and nanotechnology. a power...

Objective: With the increasing incidence of cancer and the dramatic effect of early detection on treatment and increase patient's life, many efforts have been devoted to making sensitive diagnosis systems. DNA as a biomarker for diagnosis of different types of cancers at the early stages of illness has attracted much attention.Methods: In this research novel electrochemical biosensor was ...

One novel electrochemical immunosensor was constructed by immobilizing capture antibody of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP Ab(1)) on a nafion/nanogold-particle modified glassy carbon electrode. With a sandwich immunoassay, one DNA-derived magnetic nanoprobe, simplified as DNA/(ZMPs-HRP-AFP Ab(2))(n), was employed for the detection of AFP. The fabricated procedure of the proposed biosensor was characteri...

An ultrasensitive electrochemical biosensor for the determination of pathogenic Vibrio cholerae (V. cholerae) DNA was developed based on polystyrene-co-acrylic acid (PSA) latex nanospheres-gold nanoparticles composite (PSA-AuNPs) DNA carrier matrix. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) using an electroactive anthraquninone oligonucleotide label was used for measuring the biosensor response. Loa...

A simple, ultrasensitive and selective electrochemical DNA biosensor based on DNA concatamers is described, which can detect as low as 100 aM target DNA even in complex samples.

In this paper, we report for the first time an electrochemical biosensor for single-step, reagentless, and picomolar detection of a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein using a double-stranded, electrode-bound DNA probe terminally modified with a redox active label close to the electrode surface. This new methodology is based upon local repression of electrolyte diffusion associated with prote...

The present research describes a simple method for the identification of the gender of arowana fish (Scleropages formosus). The DNA biosensor was able to detect specific DNA sequence at extremely low level down to atto M regimes. An electrochemical DNA biosensor based on acrylic microsphere-gold nanoparticle (AcMP-AuNP) hybrid composite was fabricated. Hydrophobic poly(n-butylacrylate-N-acrylox...

Recent trends and challenges in the electrochemical methods for the detection of DNA hybridization are reviewed. Electrochemistry has superior properties over the other existing measurement systems, because electrochemical biosensors can provide rapid, simple and low-cost on-field detection. Electrochemical measurement protocols are also suitable for mass fabrication of miniaturized devices. El...
