A Novel Ratiometric Electrochemical Biosensor Using Only One Signal Tag for Highly Reliable and Ultrasensitive Detection of miRNA-21

Lingqi Kong et al.

Summary: A novel ratiometric electrochemical biosensor with methylene blue (MB) as the only signal tag was developed for highly reliable and ultrasensitive detection of microRNA-21 (miRNA-21). The strategy utilized an intelligent target-induced dual signal amplification (T-DSA) to controllably load and release MB, avoiding false positive responses. With the aid of innovative T-DSA recycle and rolling circle amplification (RCA)-produced functional DNA nanospheres, the detection sensitivity of this biosensor was significantly improved.

Label free detection of miRNA-21 with electrolyte gated organic field effect transistors (EGOFETs)

Meenu Selvaraj et al.

Summary: A dual gate/common channel organic transistor architecture was designed for quantifying the concentration of one of the strands of miRNA-21 in solution, showing high sensitivity and low detection limit. The dose curves were described using an analytical function derived from a thermodynamic model, indicating the interplay of different equilibria. The lower binding free energy characteristic of hybridization on the device surface compared to reaction in solution suggests a partially inhibiting effect of the surface and presence of competing reactions.
