    Abstract:
    In this work, a novel sandwich-type electrochemical aptasensor based on the dual signal amplification strategy of hemin/G-quadruplex and AuNPs-MoS2 was designed and constructed, which realized the highly sensitive and specific detection of thrombin (TB). In this aptasensor, the 15-mer TB-binding aptamer (TBA-1) modified with thiol group was immobilized on the surface of AuNPs modified glassy carbon electrode (AuNPs/GCE) as capturing elements. Another thiol-modified 29-mer TB-binding aptamer (TBA-2) sequence containing G-quadruplex structure for hemin immobilization was designed. The formed hemin/G-quadruplex/TBA-2 sequence was further combined to the AuNPs decorated flower-like molybdenum disulfide (AuNPs-MoS2) composite surface via Au-S bonds, acting the role of reporter probe. In presence of the target TB, the sandwich-type electrochemical aptamer detection system could be formed properly. With the assistance of the dual signal amplification of AuNPs-MoS2 and hemin/G-quadruplex toward H2O2 reduction, the sandwich-type electrochemical aptasensor was successfully constructed for sensitive detection of TB. The results demonstrate that the fabricated aptasensor displays a wide linear range of 1.0 × 10-6 ∼ 10.0 nM with a low detection limit of 0.34 fM. This proposed aptasensor shows potential application in the detection of TB content in real biological samples with high sensitivity, selectivity, and reliability.
