Popis: | A high initial signal for the sensitive detection of analytes is critical in photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensing systems. As a semiconductor, 3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA) possesses an appropriate optical band gap of 2.5 eV and inherently intense and stable PEC response. When gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) are electrodeposited on the surface of PTCDA to form a Schottky junction (Au NPs/PTCDA), a surprising and satisfactory PEC performance is unfolded before our eyes. Considering the outstanding PEC behaviors of Au NPs/PTCDA and the great quenching effect of gold nanoclusters (Au NCs), the "ON-OFF-ON" PEC sensing platform has been developed for microRNA 1246 (miRNA 1246) detection combined with the cascaded quadratic amplification strategy of the polymerization/nicking reaction and dual-particle 3D DNA roller. The higher initial PEC signals of the system can be acquired by regulating the deposition time for 35 s (-0.2 V), which is derived from the synergetic effect of localized surface plasmon resonance of Au NPs and the formation of a Schottky junction. The dual-particle 3D DNA roller has been designed to guarantee wide walking space, remarkable operation performances, and inhibition of derailment. The proposed biosensor shows a dynamic range from 10 aM to 1 pM at a low detection limit of 3.1 aM and exhibits good analytical behaviors while analyzing miRNA 1246 in healthy human serum samples. This work not only expands the application of organic photoelectric materials in bioanalysis but also provides potential possibility of detecting other biomarkers by choosing appropriate target units. |
