    Abstract:
    Herein, an enzyme-free fluorescent aptasensor was introduced for the ultrasensitive quantification of lead (Pb2+) ion as a hazardous pollutant of the environment and foodstuffs. A nanocomposite of zeolitic imidazolate frameworks-8 and gold nanoparticles (ZIF-8@AuNPs) was utilized as an efficient quencher of the fluorescence intensity of carboxyfluorescein (FAM) signal reporter. The establishment of a hybrid structure between attached aptamer on ZIF-8@AuNPs nanocomposite, and its FAM-tagged complementary (CP) strand decreased the fluorescence response. The preferential binding between the aptamer and Pb2+ released CP strands, which retrieved the fluorescence signal. The aptasensor could assess Pb2+ in the linear concentration range of 1 pM-1 nM with a detection limit (LOD) of 0.24 pM. Besides, it could quantify Pb2+ in various samples, including fish, shrimp, tap water, milk, and serum samples. The developed aptasensor with the superiorities of easiness, cost-effectiveness, easy-to-operate, and rapidness is promising for controlling marine foodstuff safety.
