Abstract
An electrochemical aptasensor based on Ti3C2Tx (MXene) and cDNA-PAA was established for sensitive detection of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in peanuts. The high specific surface area of Ti3C2Tx (MXene) contributed to improve electrochemical efficiency and enhancing sensor stability which were characterized by the Randles−Sevcik equation. The self-made polyacrylic acid (PAA) nanogel was added with aptamer complementary chain (cDNA) to form cDNA-PAA nano gel composite, which could realize the synergistic amplification of the difference between the electrochemical signals before and after the addition of AFB1. The sensing effect of cDNA-PAA was validated using DPV. Methylene blue (MB) was modified at the proximal 3′ termini of the aptamer (Apt-MB), meanwhile AuNPs was used to immobilize Apt-MB and improve the efficiency of electrochemical reactions. The competition between AFB1 and cDNA-PAA combined with Apt MB resulted in a significant change in the electrochemical signal current. In addition, the constructed electrochemical aptasensor had a lower detection limit of 1.0 × 10−3 ng/L for AFB1 under optimal detection conditions, and a detection range of 1 to 1000 ng/L. Moreover, peanuts with different concentrations of AFB1 were used as actual detection samples. Through the constructed sensor detection, the spiked recovery rates within the spiking range of 50 to 500 ng/mL were 97.76% to 101.84% (n = 3).
期刊介绍:
The goal of the Journal of Food Science is to offer scientists, researchers, and other food professionals the opportunity to share knowledge of scientific advancements in the myriad disciplines affecting their work, through a respected peer-reviewed publication. The Journal of Food Science serves as an international forum for vital research and developments in food science.
The range of topics covered in the journal include:
-Concise Reviews and Hypotheses in Food Science
-New Horizons in Food Research
-Integrated Food Science
-Food Chemistry
-Food Engineering, Materials Science, and Nanotechnology
-Food Microbiology and Safety
-Sensory and Consumer Sciences
-Health, Nutrition, and Food
-Toxicology and Chemical Food Safety
The Journal of Food Science publishes peer-reviewed articles that cover all aspects of food science, including safety and nutrition. Reviews should be 15 to 50 typewritten pages (including tables, figures, and references), should provide in-depth coverage of a narrowly defined topic, and should embody careful evaluation (weaknesses, strengths, explanation of discrepancies in results among similar studies) of all pertinent studies, so that insightful interpretations and conclusions can be presented. Hypothesis papers are especially appropriate in pioneering areas of research or important areas that are afflicted by scientific controversy.
