Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is an auspicious tumor biomarker released into the bloodstream by tumor cells, offering abundant information concerning cancer genes. It plays a crucial role in the early diagnosis of cancer. However, due to extremely low levels in body fluids, achieving a simple, sensitive, and highly specific detection of ctDNA remains challenging. Here, we constructed a purification-free fluorescence biosensor based on quadratic amplification of ctDNA by combining nicking enzyme mediated amplification (NEMA) and catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) reactions. After double isothermal amplification, this biosensor achieved an impressive signal amplification of nearly 107-fold, enabling it to detect ctDNA with ultra-sensitivity. And the detection limit of this biosensor is as low as 2 aM. In addition, we explored the influence of human serum on the performance of the biosensor and found that it showed favorable sensitivity in the presence of serum. This biosensor eliminates the need for an intermediate purification step, resulting in enhanced sensitivity and convenience. Thus, our purification-free fluorescent biosensor exhibits ultra-high sensitivity when compared to other biosensors and has the potential to serve as an effective diagnostic tool for early detection of cancer.
