    Abstract:
    A novel and simple ratiometric fluorescent aptasensor was developed for the sensitive detection of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1). A hairpin DNA (h-DNA) was independently synthesized as the basic skeleton, and the bidirectional hybridization of h-DNA can increase the load of aptamer and signal probes, thereby realizing signal amplification. The high-efficiency fluorescence resonance energy transfer interaction between gold-palladium nanoparticles (Au-Pd NPs) and the self-synthesized fluorescent probe carbon dots (CDs) was utilized. Moreover, the label-free probe SYBR Green I (SG I) dye was introduced to form a double-signal probe with CDs, and a ratiometric sensor with FCDs/FSG I as a response signal was constructed. The ratio strategy can eliminate the fluctuation of external factors, thus improving the accuracy and reliability of the sensor. The quenching effect of Au-Pd NPs on CDs was 1.4 times that of AuNPs and 3.4 times that of Pd NPs, respectively. In the range 1-100 ng/mL, FCDs/FSG I showed a good linear relationship with the logarithm of the concentration of AFB1, and the limit of detection was as low as 0.07 ng/mL. The sensor was used to detect AFB1 in spiked peanuts and wine samples, and the recovery was between 91 and 115%, indicating that the sensor has high application potential in real sample analysis.
