Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality all over the world and multidrug resistance TB (MDR-TB) pose a serious threat to the TB control and represent an increasing public health problem. In this work, we report a homogeneous signal-on electrochemiluminescence (ECL) DNA sensor for the sensitive and specific detection of rpoB genes of MDR-TB by using ruthenium(II) complex functionalized graphene oxide (Ru-GO) as suspension sensing interface and ferrocene-labeled ssDNA (Fc-ssDNA) as ECL intensity controller. The ECL of Ru-GO could be effectively quenched by Fc-ssDNA absorbed on the Ru-GO nanosheets. The Ru-GO has good discrimination ability over ssDNA and dsDNA. Mutant ssDNA target responsible for the drug resistant tuberculosis can hybridize with Fc-ssDNA and release Fc-ssDNA from Ru-GO surface, leading to the recovery of ECL. Mutant ssDNA target can be detected in a range from 0.1 to 100 nM with a detection limit of 0.04 nM. The proposed protocol is sensitive, specific, simple, time-saving and polymerase chain reaction free without complicated immobilization, separation and washing steps, which creates a simple but valuable tool for facilitating fast and accurate detection of disease related specific sequences or gene mutations.
