摘要
A nanocomposite of polyaniline/graphene(PAN/GN)was prepared using reverse-phase polymerization.The nanocomposite material was dropcast onto a glassy carbon electrode(GCE).Then,a single-stranded DNA(ssDNA)probe for HIV-1 gene detection was immobilized on the modified electrode,and the negative charged phosphate backbone of the HIV-1 was bound to the modified electrode surface via p-p*stacking interactions.The hybridization between the ssDNA probe and the target HIV-1 formed doublestranded DNA(dsDNA),and the electron transfer resistance of the electrode was measured using impedimetric studies with a[Fe(CN)6]^(3-/4-)redox couple.Under the optimized experimental conditions,the change of the impedance value was linearly related to the logarithm of the concentration of HIV genes in the range from 5.0×10^(-16)M to 1.0×10^(-10)M(R=0.9930),and the HIV sensor exhibited a lower detection limit of 1.0×10^(-16)M(S/N=3).The results show that this biosensor presented wonderful selectivity,sensitivity and specificity for HIV-1 gene detection.Thus,this biosensor provides a new method for the detection of HIV gene fragments.
