Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is considered as a disease biomarker, which is related to various cancers and tumors in the human bodies. Sensitive detection of CEA is significant for clinical diagnosis and treat-ment. Herein, we proposed an electrochemical aptasensor for CEA detection based on the amplification driven by polydopamine functional graphene and Pd-Pt nanodendrites (PDA@Gr/Pd-PtNDs), conjugated hemin/G-quadruplex (hemin/G4), which possess mimicking peroxidases activity. Firstly, PDA@Gr was modified on the electrode surface for fixing CEA aptamer 1 (Apt1). Then, PDA@Gr/Pd-PtNDs with large surface area served as matrix for immobilization of hemin/G4 to obtain the secondary aptamer. In virtue of the sandwich-type specific reaction between CEA and the corresponding aptamers, the second aptamer was captured on the sensing interface, which can catalyze the oxidation of signal probe hydroquinone (HQ) with H2O2 and amplify current signal. Furthermore, the electrochemical signals of HQ were propor-tional with CEA concentrations. Under the optimal conditions, a dynamic response range from 50 pg/mL to 1.0 lg/mL and a detection limit of 6.3 pg/mL for CEA were obtained. Moreover, the proposed strategy represented satisfactory sensitivity and stability, and showed a good precision in real samples application. (c) 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
