Abstract:
:Despite the use of layered double hydroxides (LDH) in different electrochemical (bio)sensors, the construction of aptasensors using LDH-based surfaces was not reported to the best of our knowledge. This may be due to the lack of a suitable linker to attach aptamers to the LDH-modified surface. LDH-based aptasensors are established here as very sensitive and reliable devices in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis. 5'-NH2 DNA aptamer probes were immobilized on the LDH-based surfaces in a vertical conformation without any linker materials. Due to the low electron conductivity of the LDH, carbon nanotubes (CNT) with high electronic conductivity and high surface area were combined with LDH. Thrombin was used as a model protein for aptasensing. The sensor shows a linear range of 0.005-12,000 pmol L-1 and a limit of detection of 0.1 fmol L-1. Moreover, the aptasensor was used for the sensing of thrombin in CSF and serum samples acquired from both healthy and patients with different disease.
