Abstract

An aptamer-based biosensor was developed for the detection of doxorubicin using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Doxorubicin and its 14-dehydroxylated version daunorubicin are anthracyclines often used in cancer treatment. Due to their mutagenic and cardiotoxic effects, detection in groundwater is desirable. We developed a biosensor using the daunorubicin-binding aptamer as biological recognition element. The aptamer was successfully co-immobilized with mercaptohexanol on gold and a density of 1.3*1013 ± 2.4*1012 aptamer molecules per cm2 was achieved. The binding of doxorubicin to the immobilized aptamer was detected by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The principle is based on the inhibition of electron transfer between electrode and ferro-/ferricyanide in solution caused by the binding of doxorubicin to the immobilized aptamer. A linear relationship between the charge transfer resistance (R ct ) and the doxorubicin concentration was obtained over the range of 31 nM to 125 nM doxorubicin, with an apparent binding constant of 64 nM and a detection limit of 28 nM. With the advantages of high sensitivity, selectivity, and simple sensor construction, this method shows a high potential of impedimetric aptasensors in environmental monitoring.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 24 September 2018.
All research outputs
#15,745,807
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Analytical & Bioanalytical Chemistry
#4,753
of 9,619 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#243,697
of 445,640 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Analytical & Bioanalytical Chemistry
#44
of 154 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 9,619 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.1. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 445,640 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 154 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 70% of its contemporaries.
