Abstract

•Potentiostat-free rapid and facile grafting of diazonium salts•Enhanced genosensor performance•Biowarfare agent detection

A simple, rapid and potentiostat-free method for grafting of close to monolayers of diazonium salts to anchor DNA probes for application in highly sensitive electrochemical genosensing is presented. Zn-mediated grafting is demonstrated to produce a highly organised surface facilitating enhanced sensitivity and a notably reduced detection limit as compared to electrochemical grafting.
