Abstract
Here, a near-infrared (NIR) light-controlled, ultrasensitive one-step photoelectrochemical (PEC) strategy was constructed to simultaneously detect cell apoptosis indicators, phosphatidylserine (Pho) and sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase (Sat), on living cancer cells. Using NIR light as excitation, the signal probe methylene blue (Tagkinetic) could be released, leading to a gradually decreased photocurrent signal Ikinetic; meanwhile, the photocurrent Istable of the signal probe carbon quantum dots (Tagstable) remained stable. The simultaneous detection of Pho and Sat could be achieved based on rapid one-step PEC detection under single NIR light with the assistance of a smart signal decryption strategy with Ikinetic and Istable. Importantly, this proposal provides more effective drug candidates with milder pharmaceutical effect but improved safety.
