  • Title: Electrochemical Aptamer Scaffold Biosensors for Detection of Botulism and Ricin Proteins.
    Author: Daniel J, Fetter L, Jett S, Rowland TJ, Bonham AJ.
    Journal: Methods Mol Biol; 2017; 1600():9-23. PubMed ID: 28478553.
    Abstract:
    Electrochemical DNA (E-DNA) biosensors enable the detection and quantification of a variety of molecular targets, including oligonucleotides, small molecules, heavy metals, antibodies, and proteins. Here we describe the design, electrode preparation and sensor attachment, and voltammetry conditions needed to generate and perform measurements using E-DNA biosensors against two protein targets, the biological toxins ricin and botulinum neurotoxin. This method can be applied to generate E-DNA biosensors for the detection of many other protein targets, with potential advantages over other systems including sensitive detection limits typically in the nanomolar range, real-time monitoring, and reusable biosensors.
