In situ generation of electrochemiluminescent DNA nanoflowers as a signal tag for mucin 1 detection based on a strategy of target and mimic target synchronous cycling amplification†
Abstract
A sensitive electrochemiluminescent (ECL) aptasensor consisting of a novel ECL signal tag of DNA nanoflowers (DNA NFs) and a highly efficient target conversion strategy for the MUC1 assay was developed, which not only increased the stability for luminophore loading, but also greatly improved the detection sensitivity.
