Abstract
could exhibit two strong and stable ECL emissions at a drive voltage of 9 and 12 V, respectively, which can be used as effective potential-resolved signal tags. In addition, the proposed three-dimensional (3D) DNA nanomachine model and the target miRNA cycle strategy were used to achieve double amplification of electrochemiluminescence intensity. More importantly, the combination of the bipolar electrode system and the potential-resolved multitarget electrochemiluminescence method can greatly reduce the spatial interference between substances. The prepared ECL biosensor showed a favorable linear response for the detection of miRNA-155 and miRNA-126 with relatively low detection limits of 5.7 and 4.2 fM, respectively. With excellent sensitivity, the strategy may provide an efficient method for clinical application, especially in detection of trace multiple targets.
