    Supramolecular Enzymatic Labeling for Aptamer Switch-Based Electrochemical Biosensor
    (Biosensors, 2022) Villalonga Chico, Anabel; Parrado Quintela, Concepción; Diaz, Raúl; Sánchez Sánchez, Alfredo; Mayol Hornero, Beatriz; Martínez-Ruíz, Paloma; Vilela García, Diana; Villalonga Santana, Reynaldo
    Here we report a novel labeling strategy for electrochemical aptasensors based on enzymatic marking via supramolecular host–guest interactions. This approach relies on the use of an adamantane-modified target-responsive hairpin DNA aptamer as an affinity bioreceptor, and a neoglycoconjugate of β-cyclodextin (CD) covalently attached to a redox enzyme as a labeling element. As a proof of concept, an amperometric aptasensor for a carcinoembryonic antigen was assembled on screen-printed carbon electrodes modified with electrodeposited fern-like gold nanoparticles/graphene oxide and, by using a horseradish peroxidase-CD neoglycoenzyme as a biocatalytic redox label. This aptasensor was able to detect the biomarker in the concentration range from 10 pg/mL to 1 ng/mL with a high selectivity and a low detection limit of 3.1 pg/mL in human serum samples.

    Amperometric aptasensor with sandwich-type architecture for troponin I based on carboxyethylsilanetriol-modified graphene oxide coated electrodes
    (Biosensors and Bioelectronics, 2021) Villalonga, Anabel; Estabiel, Itziar; Pérez-Calabuig, Ana ; Mayol Hornero, Beatriz; Parrado Quintela, Concepción; Villalonga Santana, Reynaldo
    A novel amperometric aptasensor for the specific detection of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) was constructed by using screen-printed carbon electrodes coated with a carboxyethylsilanetriol-modified graphene oxide derivative as transduction element. This novel carboxylic acid-enriched nanomaterial allows easy and high load immobilization of the capture aptamer molecules on the electrode surface. The biosensing interface was assembled by covalent attachment of an amino-functionalized DNA aptamer on the carboxylic acid-enriched electrode surface. The sensing approach relies on the specific recognition of cTnI by the aptamer and further assembly of a sandwich-type architecture with a novel aptamer-peroxidase conjugate as signaling element. The aptasensor was employed to detect the cardiac biomarker in the broad range from 1.0 pg/mL to 1.0 μg/mL with a detection limit of 0.6 pg/mL. This electroanalytical device also showed high specificity, reproducibility and stability, and was useful to quantify cTnI in reconstituted human serum samples.
