Abstract
A label-free electrochemical aptasensor was constructed for the sensitive and selective determination of AFM1. For preparation of the aptasensor, the AFM1 aptamer was immobilised on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode modified with hemin encapsulated in Fe-based metal-organic frameworks (hemin@Fe-MIL-101). The morphology and the structure of Fe-MIL-101 and hemin@Fe-MIL-101 were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller-N2 sorption methods. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry were performed to monitor the fabrication process of the electrochemical aptasensor. The electrochemical reduction current of hemin encapsulated in Fe-MIL-101 serves as a signal for the quantitative determination of AFM1. Differential pulse voltammetry was done to determine the AFM1 concentration in the linear range of 1.0×10-1-100.0 ng/ml. The detection limit of AFM1 was estimated to be 4.6×10-2 ng/ml. Finally, the fabricated aptasensor was applied to determine AFM1 in raw and boiled milk samples.
