An enzyme-free and label-free assay for copper(ii) ion detection based on self-assembled DNA concatamers and Sybr Green I

Abstract

An enzyme-free and label-free fluorescence turn on biosensor for amplified copper(II) ion (Cu2+) detection has been constructed based on self-assembled DNA concatamers and Sybr Green I. This assay is simple, inexpensive and sensitive, enabling quantitative detection of as low as 12.8 pM Cu2+.
