Abstract

An electrochemical DNA biosensor (E-DNA biosensor) was fabricated by avidin-biotin conjugation of a biotinylated probe DNA, 5′-biotin-ATG AGT CTT CTA ACC GAG GTC GAA-3′, and an avidin-modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) to detect the influenza virus (type A). An avidin-modified GCE was prepared by the reaction of avidin and a carboxylic acid-modified GCE, which was synthesized by the electrochemical reduction of 4-carboxyphenyl diazonium salt. The current value of the E-DNA biosensor was evaluated after hybridization of the probe DNA and target DNA using cyclic voltammetry (CV). The current value decreased after the hybridization of the probe DNA and target DNA. The DNA that was used follows: complementary target DNA, 5′-TTC GAC CTC GGT TAG AAG ACT CAT-3′ and two-base mismatched DNA, 5′-TTC GAC AGC GGT TAT AAG ACT CAT-3′.

► This manuscript presented the fabrication of electrochemical DNA (E-DNA) biosensors by avidin-biotin conjugation of a biotinylated probe DNA. ► The probe DNA, 5′-biotin-ATG AGT CTT CTA ACC GAG GTC, was immobilized on the avidin-modified glassy carbon electrode to detect influenza virus (type A). ► The current value measured by cyclic voltammetry (CV) was decreased after hybridization of the probe DNA and target DNA.
